Starmer: No more 'dithering or delay' over nucelar power
Sir Keir Starmer promised there would be no more “dithering” about backing nuclear power as the Government committed to the Sizewell C plant.
The prime minister said the “change of mindset” would help free the UK from reliance on international fossil fuel markets and prevent price spikes such as those in the wake of Vladimir Putin’s invasion of Ukraine.
Speaking at a college in Ipswich, Sir Keir said: “No more dithering, no more delay, no more being unclear about what we’re going to do, a real statement of intent as we go forward.” Report by Covellm.

Keir Starmer has announced plans to stabilise business rates and allow easier access to loans in a bid to support small businesses.

A shadow minister has said the government's recognition of Palestine as an independent state is unlikely to happen. Keir Starmer said he would recognise the state if Hamas surrendered power. Shadow chancellor of Duchy of Lancaster Alex Burghart said: "Hamas is not about to lay down it's weapons and go quietly into the night. I just think this is nonsense really." Report by Kennedyl.

President Donald Trump has admitted that new U.S. sanctions on Russia might not have any effect on Vladimir Putin — but is moving ahead with them anyway. Trump slashed the peace window for a Ukraine deal from 50 days to just 10, warning of brutal economic penalties if Moscow doesn't comply. These include up to 100% tariffs and potential secondary sanctions on countries doing business with Russia.
While Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov downplayed the threats, saying Russia has developed “sanctions immunity,” Trump’s frustration is mounting. The president also announced that special envoy Steve Witkoff will soon travel to Russia following visits to Israel and Gaza. Trump’s acting UN envoy confirmed a ceasefire deadline: August 8. Despite over 10,000 sanctions already in place since the 2014 Ukraine crisis, Putin maintains the West has failed to break Russia’s economy. The standoff is reaching a boiling point.

President Donald Trump has issued a sharp condemnation of Russia’s ongoing assault on Ukraine, calling Vladimir Putin’s actions "disgusting" during remarks from the Oval Office. With civilian casualties mounting, Trump announced an August 8 deadline for Russia to make a deal — or face severe economic sanctions. As the war intensifies, Trump’s warning marks a dramatic shift in tone and a high-stakes moment for U.S.-Russia relations.

Russian troops have reportedly stormed into Chasiv Yar after a grueling 16-month standoff, raising their flags over key positions in the strategically vital Ukrainian town. While Kremlin sources claim a breakthrough, Kyiv has denied the fall, stating that fierce resistance continues and the situation remains “fluid.” This town is critical for access to Sloviansk and Kramatorsk—major Ukrainian strongholds in Donetsk.

Kyiv is reeling after another brutal missile and drone strike hit the Shevchenkivskyi district, targeting a nine-story residential building and causing it to collapse. At least six people, including a young child, have been killed, and over 50 others injured, with casualty numbers expected to rise. Emergency responders are desperately working to rescue survivors trapped under the rubble.

Ukrainian President Zelenskyy condemns the ruthless strike, calling for international justice and urgent support. Meanwhile, U.S. President Trump’s hard deadline of August 8 approaches, threatening severe sanctions on Russia if peace talks fail. Western leaders accuse Putin of deliberately stalling efforts to prolong the war, as Kyiv faces escalating destruction and a worsening humanitarian crisis.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has urged Western allies to seek "regime change" in Russia following a devastating drone and missile strike on Kyiv that killed 16 people, including a six-year-old boy. Over 150 were wounded in one of the most intense attacks in months. The overnight barrage hit a residential tower, causing mass devastation, just as Moscow claimed to have captured Chasiv Yar, a strategic town in eastern Ukraine.
While Ukraine denies full Russian control, analysts admit the battle is “very difficult.” The brutal assault came shortly after U.S. President Donald Trump issued a 10-day ultimatum to Russia, threatening further sanctions. As the Kremlin pushes its offensive deeper into Donetsk, Kyiv faces political unrest at home after Zelensky was forced to withdraw a controversial anti-corruption bill under EU pressure. With Russia escalating attacks and Ukraine’s internal crisis deepening, the war enters a volatile new phase.
