From The Times, October 22, 1924Sir Douglas Hogg, KC, addressed a meeting in support of the St Pancras Conservative and Unionist candidates at the Public Hall, Kentish Town, last night. There were about 1,600 persons present but gangs of rowdies made speaking almost impossible. Major R W Barnett, Conservative candidate for the South-West Division, said that Unionists went into the fight full of confidence and were determined to win all three seats in St Pancras.

More infoGary Neville has revealed how similar he and Jamie Carragher both are in their respective approaches to working. Graham Potter and Eddie Howe will get mentioned and I think it will definitely be an English manager. To take that away from an English manager and give it to an international manager would be wrong." Carragher also expressed his skepticism over foreign managers leading the England team: "I'm not a believer in foreign managers managing England. We don't need a foreign manager, we've done it before."

North Korean Troops Join Russia's Ukraine Offensive Reports suggest significant military cooperation between North Korea and Russia as tensions escalateNorth Korea's potential involvement in the Ukraine war has stirred significant international attention and concern. According to South Korean intelligence, approximately 1,500 North Korean special operations troops have been dispatched to Russia as of mid-October 2024. Analysts suggest this pact forms the foundation for potential North Korean troop involvement, indicating both nations’ aims to counter external pressures, particularly from Western powers. Speculations about the actual role North Korean troops might play alongside Russian forces have led to various interpretations. Analysts suggest the actual number of North Korean troops might not drastically alter the situation within the broader conflict.

In June I paid £42,791 for a new Tesla Model 3 car. I booked it in for a service so that Tesla could find out why the range displayed in the car didn’t match what was advertised. But Tesla said the battery was working as expected and closed my service request. I told Tesla that I wanted to return the car as the range did not match the advert and it agreed to take it back. I found a pre-owned Tesla Model 3 with a bigger range that was on sale for £32,200,

Write to letters@thetimes.co.ukSir, Trevor Phillips is right that the dreadful conflict in the Middle East should be at the heart of the Commonwealth’s concerns (“It’s time the Commonwealth showed its clout”, Oct 19) but wrong that no country in that region with a former constitutional association with the UK has tried to join.

Its historical association with the Commonwealth was recognised and its interest in membership welcomed but it was decided that its application should be paused pending state sovereignty. Sadly, subsequent summits ignored the increasingly difficult, and now unbearably tragic, position of Palestine but Commonwealth leaders meeting in Samoa this week have the opportunity to put

Donald Trump stopped by a Pennsylvania McDonald's for a staged campaign event during which he learned how to make fries and served pre-screened customers at the drive-through window. The stop was meant as a jab at Kamala Harris, whom he has accused of lying about her time working at a McDonald's during college. Trump has not provided any evidence to back the claims about his opponent. The former president spent about 30 minutes at the fast-food location, which had been closed for the event
