Wednesday briefing: ​Can Burnham ​seek a ​different ​path​ to Trump’s world order?

Wednesday briefing: ​Can Burnham ​seek a ​different ​path​ to Trump’s world order?

In today’s newsletter: The PM’s first face‑to‑face with​ the US president marks a fragile reset Good morning. In the early hours of Tuesday a plane carrying Andy Burnham, a handful of UK ministers, an excited group of British political journalists, and Burnham’s wife, Marie France, landed at a New York airport for one of Burnham’s first major outings as prime minister: a face-to-face meeting with Donald Trump. Considering the president once described Burnham as the mayor of “a town,” and the prime minister once said Trump wouldn’t be welcome in said town (Manchester), the meeting yesterday afternoon went remarkably well. UN general assembly | Donald Trump has called on nations to unite to isolate Tehran and bring down global energy prices, as he gave a bellicose defence of his administration’s foreign policy and decision to strike Iran. The far right | Charities have condemned footage of a far-right activist using a blade to slash an inflatable dinghy in the Channel while a rescue worker was onboard, in a further escalation of organised anti-immigration protest. UK news | Children as young as 13 in the UK have been referred to a specialist clinic for a “devastating” bladder condition linked to sustained use of ketamine . West Bank | British banks and financial institutions are receiving warnings from MPs that they should not invest in Israel’s E1 settlement project. UK politics | Andy Burnham has opened the door to fighting the next election on the UK rejoining the EU , but said his immediate priority was continuing to rebuild bridges with European allies.

Keeping billionaires and the taxman happy | Letters

Keeping billionaires and the taxman happy | Letters

Stephen Gillian says the super-rich could help guarantee a decent wage for low-paid people in return for some tax benefits. Plus letters from Les Bright and Steve Brown I have a simple solution to help keep the super-rich happy with their tax bills while keeping their enormous wealth safely stored offshore and allowing them possibly to spend more time in the UK ( Manchester United Muslim fans group calls on co-owner Jim Ratcliffe to quit, 19 September ). They could insist that any company they earn their wealth from commits to paying all UK staff a decent living wage. For this small compromise from the billionaires (who will still play the money markets and profit from others’ hard labour), the government could offer to reduce employers’ taxation costs by increasing the point at which low-paid people pay tax. Perhaps it could reduce national insurance payments for low-paid people, both employee and employer, thereby stopping the farce of the government paying income support to those on low incomes and then increasing taxation to fund it.

Cole Palmer injury likely to scupper his England return in Nations League

Cole Palmer injury likely to scupper his England return in Nations League

Rashford and Mainoo doubts for Spain opener Livramento also expected to withdraw from squad Cole Palmer will withdraw from the England squad with a minor muscle injury while there is a doubt over whether Marcus Rashford will be able to be involved. The Manchester United winger held the area by the front of his hip and groin as he walked off slowly after his substitution at Fulham on Sunday. Palmer was given a high-profile recall by Thomas Tuchel on Friday for the forthcoming Nations League fixtures, when the manager and his players will take their first steps on the new two-year cycle that they hope will end in glory at Euro 2028. England are back in Nations League Group A and kick off against Spain at Wembley on Saturday. They then play Czechia and Croatia away before returning to Wembley to face Czechia. Continue reading...

WSL talking points: Arsenal’s attacking woes and Goodwin makes England case

WSL talking points: Arsenal’s attacking woes and Goodwin makes England case

Gunners are held to second home draw in two weeks, while Spurs smash Palace 7-0 to maintain strong start After being unable to find a way through Crystal Palace’s backline last time out, Arsenal were again frustrated at home in a draw with Manchester United on Saturday and Renée Slegers was asked post-match about how her team can turn their dominance of possession and territory into more goals. It could have been worse, of course, if Smilla Holmberg had not made it 1-1 in the 95th minute. “It’s not one thing, it’s a combination of things,” Slegers said. “It’s a cocktail of things, there are some details in decision making, some details in the technical execution. It’s also the ruthlessness in front of goal but I know the players want it and they want to do that, they want to execute for Arsenal.” Tom Garry Match report: Arsenal 1-1 Manchester United Match report: Manchester City 4-2 Liverpool Continue reading...

The Split Up review – this soapy divorce drama is loads of lavish, nonsensical fun

The Split Up review – this soapy divorce drama is loads of lavish, nonsensical fun

Sanjeev Bhaskar plays a patriarch handing over the family firm in a spinoff of The Split. It’s full-on sudsy fun right from the off I do like a soap that doesn’t hang about. That works itself up to a creamy lather and invites you to shut the bathroom door against real life and dive into a hot bath with it immediately for a much-needed break. The Split Up delivers full-on sudsy fun from the start. From the team behind The Split , it’s another glossy tale of a family-run family law firm specialising in the never-too-complicated divorce cases of any high net worth individuals in their vicinity. This time, it’s written by Ursula Rani Sarma instead of Abi Morgan, the family is British South Asian and the location is Manchester not London, but beyond that it’s very much business as usual. A case of the week functions as the still eye of the ever-growing storm composed of the love lives, personal concerns and professional ambitions of the interrelated lawyers and their friends, colleagues and enemies – who are often, of course, one and the same thing. Mild glamour meets much plot; viewer happiness ensues. The Split Up is available on BBC iPlayer Continue reading...

‘The fears begin to fall away’: why Britain’s mosques are opening their doors to public

‘The fears begin to fall away’: why Britain’s mosques are opening their doors to public

As attacks on Muslim places of worship rise, more than 100 mosques this weekend have offered conversation, food and friendship to challenge prejudice At one mosque in north London, a woman shouted at worshippers that more of their children should be killed, as children had been in Gaza. On another occasion, gas pipes were ripped from the building and reconfigured so leaking gas built up inside it. These are among a series of incidents the London Islamic Cultural Society has faced in the past three years. But rather than retreat behind closed doors, the mosque has opened them wider. It is one of more than 100 across the UK, including in London, Birmingham, Sheffield, Manchester, Glasgow, Southend and Cardiff, that have invited in members of the public this weekend to learn more about Islam and British Muslims.

‘I can’t wait for the Ashes’: new England Test coach Fleming targets No 1 spot

New Zealander plans to add ‘a bit of cricket sense in key moments’ to Bazball template and make England the world’s best Test team “Flemball? That’s a medical condition.” Stephen Fleming’s first press conference as England Test coach was exactly what you would expect from a man appointed to bring calm to a team that had started to career off course. While the Manchester rain did its worst outside, Fleming was the handsome sea captain on top of his ship, even if that ship had to float without him during the Test series against Pakistan. England won 3-0 while Fleming saw to family and commercial commitments. But the wait has given him thinking time to work out what he wants to achieve. Continue reading...

easyJet launching fifth new Ljubljana service

easyJet launching fifth new Ljubljana service

easyJet will restore flights between Berlin and Ljubljana during the 2027 summer season following a seven year hiatus. Services will commence on April 7 and operate twice per week, on Wednesdays and Sundays, with the Airbus A320 aircraft. The low cost carrier will face no direct competition on the route. Tickets are now available for purchase through the airline’s website. Further flight details can be found here . easyJet previously maintained flights between the two capitals from August 2018. The airline initially operated three weekly services between Berlin Tegel and Ljubljana. Operations were disrupted by the coronavirus pandemic in 2020, after which the carrier discontinued the route. The new service forms part of easyJet’s renewed expansion in the Slovenian capital. The airline launched flights from Manchester in November 2025, followed by the introduction of services from Edinburgh in April this year. A new three weekly operation from London Luton will commence on October 26, complementing its longstanding flights from London Gatwick. With the addition of Berlin, easyJet will serve five destinations from Ljubljana during the 2027 summer season: Berlin, Edinburgh, London Gatwick, London Luton and Manchester. easyJet is also in the process of acquiring Ljubljana-based aircraft maintenance provider Adria Tehnika from Czech investment fund Hartenberg Holding.

Slovenia’s Competition Protection Agency approved the acquisition in February. However, its completion was delayed after the Kranj District Court temporarily prevented Hartenberg from disposing of its stake amid a dispute with a former minority shareholder over how the investment fund obtained full ownership of the maintenance provider The Berlin announcement comes as the Slovenian government evaluates applications submitted under its latest tender aimed at improving the country’s air connectivity. Four bids were received by the August 31 deadline during the second round of the tenth public call. The identities of the applicants and their proposed routes have not been disclosed, while no official results have been announced. EX-YU Aviation News
