The UK jobs market has continued to weaken, making the prospect of an interest rate cut next month even more likely, analysts say. The annual rate of pay growth in the three months between March and May slowed to 5%, according to the Office for National Statistics (ONS). The unemployment rate has risen to 4.7%, its highest in four years, while the number of job vacancies has now been falling continuously for three years. The government said "we need to go further" to improve the economy, while the Conservatives said the unemployment rise was a "disgrace".
✕ Close England survive chaos to reach Euro 2025 semi-finalsEngland are through to the semi-finals of Euro 2025 after surviving a thriller against Sweden, with Lucy Bronze and Hannah Hampton the heroes in the penalty shoot-out. The Lionesses began the match in the worst possible way and Sarina Wiegman’s side were punished for their defensive sloppiness as Kosovare Asllani sent Sweden ahead inside the opening two minutes before Stina Blackstenius doubled their lead. Changes were made by the coach and the introduction of Chloe Kelly was the turning point with the Arsenal forward providing two assists as Bronze and Michelle Agyemang, another substitute, scored late in the game to force extra-time and penalties. The shoot-out was low on quality, with nine misses in total and both goalkeepers on top form. Bronze rattled one down the middle to put England ahead at 3-2 and Hampton’s heroics ensured England’s title defence goes on.

THE political campaign group Evangelicals for America, in the United States, has apologised for its suggestive use of footage of the late evangelist Billy Graham in an advertisement critical of President Trump. Formerly known as Evangelicals for Harris, the rebranded group has taken down the 2024 election campaign advert that spliced Graham’s words with quotations from Donald Trump at his political rallies. Men will become utterly self-centered and greedy for money” — with a clip of Mr Trump telling a rally: “My whole life I’ve been greedy, greedy, greedy. Graham’s son, Franklin, who is the president and CEO of the Billy Graham Evangelistic Association (BGEA) and the charity Samaritan’s Purse, issued a “cease and desist” order when the advertisement was released last year. It continued: “We have continued dialogue with BGEA since the election, and we affirm its position that Rev.

“While we cannot move on pay after a 28.9% pay rise, we are working on areas where we can improve working lives for resident doctors. Dr Ryan responded: “I think that the public is behind us in the sense that they want to see doctors paid fairly, they want doctors to be in the NHS, doctors retained, because ultimately they want good care”. On Tuesday, NHS leaders said there was no extra money to cover industrial action by resident doctors, formerly known as junior doctors. But the BMA said resident doctors need 29.2% to reverse “pay erosion” since 2008/09. Earlier this month, the union announced that resident doctors in England would strike for five days from 7am on July 25.
