Britain’s Conservative Party made history last weekend, becoming the country’s first major party to elect a Black woman as leader. And yet this milestone was reached not by a party of the progressive center-left but by Britain’s oldest and most traditional conservative political force. After all, the Conservatives have broken glass ceilings before, picking all three of Britain’s female prime ministers, as well as its first leader who wasn’t white, Rishi Sunak. Now 44, Ms. Badenoch was born in London and raised in Nigeria, returning to Britain when she was 16. In her first parliamentary speech, in 2017, she declared, “To all intents and purposes, I am a first-generation immigrant.”

More infoRuben Amorim’s bottom line for this season is to ensure Manchester United qualify for Europe via any tactical means necessary, says Dimitar Berbatov. They are six points off fifth, the guaranteed automatic Europa League qualification spot, but can finish lower and still qualify for Europe. Should the winners of the FA Cup and League Cup finish in a Champions League place, the respective prizes of Europa League and Europa Conference League qualification get passed down to the next positions in the table - namely sixth and seventh. However, the former United striker is intrigued to see how the new boss will set up his team given the players he has at his disposal. “The players might not be 100% suited because they won’t be, they’re not his players, they’re not the squad he’s built.

No smoker wants to harm other people, but with second-hand smoke they unintentionally do. Some people are especially vulnerable to tobacco chemicals: children, pregnant women, people with common pre-existing but usually invisible health conditions like asthma, diabetes or coronary heart disease. This led to rapid improvements in health including around 1,200 fewer heart attack admissions and many fewer asthma admissions in children in the first year alone. The tobacco industry drives health inequality, harms the economy through ill health including during the working age and causes a burden on the NHS - far outweighing the tax receipts. Ensuring a smoke-free generation, protecting families and vulnerable people from involuntary second-hand smoke and preventing some of the tricks used to market cigarettes and vapes to children will have substantial long-term benefits to the health of the public.

And yet this milestone was reached not by a party of the progressive center-left but by Britain’s oldest and most traditional conservative political force. “I’m glad because it shows that my country and my party are actually places where it doesn’t matter who you are or what you look like,” the new leader, Kemi Badenoch, told the BBC on Sunday.

Introduced by Oprah Winfrey and Lady Gaga, Harris emphasised her message of hope. Trump struck a darker tone in the same state, with threats to put tariffs on all imports from Mexico unless it stopped people from entering the US.

How the election works in 100 wordsEach state is worth a number of points known as "electoral college votes" related to the population of the state. California, the most populous US state, has 54 electoral college votes representing its 39 million population. In almost all states, if you win by just one vote, you get all the electoral college votes. There are 538 "points" in total. Most states are predictable - so it could all come down to seven swing states: Pennsylvania (19 electoral votes), Georgia (16), North Carolina (16), Michigan (15), Arizona (11), Wisconsin (10) and Nevada (6).

DSIT is also leading a scheme to create a new “digital centre” of government, boosting technology adoption across the public sector. “We are going to change this by experimenting with emerging technology to find new ways to save people time and make their lives easier, as we are doing with Gov.UK Chat. A small, private trial of the Gov.UK chatbot was conducted last year, with nearly 70% of the responses provided by the chatbot classed as helpful, but DSIT said the test also showed that more development was required to meet the high accuracy standards required for guidance on the government website. The Government also confirmed that stringent safety measures and guardrails have been put in place around the chatbot, with experts on AI safety and safeguarding techniques from the UK’s AI Safety Institute consulted on the chatbot’s development. DSIT acknowledged that some inaccurate and erroneous results were likely during the trial, given the emerging nature of generative AI, but said the test would provide information and insights needed to further improve the tool.

Roy Morgan finds the Coalition opening up a 51-49 lead on two-party preferred, after trailing 50.5-49.5 last time. The alternative two-party measure based on 2022 election flows has Labor leading 51-49, in from 51.5-48.5 last week. Strikingly, it credits the Coalition witha two-party lead of 51.4-48.6, based on polling data up to and including last week’s Roy Morgan result. The national figures from The Guardian aggregate are also worse for Labor than the accompanying state breakdowns, although the latter only track as far as September. Antcliff reportedly won a preselection vote by 24 to 16 ahead of local doctor Owen Boyd.
