2+ hour, 8+ min ago (1542+ words) US and Ukrainian officials met for around four hours of talks in Florida, but US secretary of state Marco Rubio said more work remains to be done towards ending the war. Meanwhile, Russia again hit Kyiv in a deadly overnight attack. Follow the latest. Sunday 30 November 2025 21:10, UK It's "clear there is still quite a gap" between Moscow and Kyiv, our US correspondent David Blevins has said.

4+ hour, 59+ min ago (667+ words) With its two figureheads seemingly at odds, the party's founding conference featured dated behaviour and predictable positional tensions, which nonetheless made for compelling political theatre. Sunday 30 November 2025 19:54, UK Anyone playing bingo with the left-wing lexicon would have been sure of a fully marked-off card by the close of Your Party's founding conference on the banks of the Mersey. Witch hunt - check. Sabotage and intimidation - check. Faceless unelected bureaucrats - HOUSE! Bonus points were also on offer if you spotted the right-wing newspaper reporter forced to hang around outside the conference after a mysterious and unfixable error with his accreditation stopped him from accessing the venue. For a party painting itself as the face of the new left, there was plenty of dated behaviour during this two-day jamboree. A gauntlet of leafleters awaited all attendees from an extensive range of left-wing organisations....

11+ hour, 48+ min ago (331+ words) Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is arguing his long-running corruption trial is such a distraction that it is damaging the national interest and affecting his ability to govern - but what sort of precedent would a pardon set? Sunday 30 November 2025 12:47, UK This is a truly unprecedented situation. An Israeli prime minister, in the midst of a trial that has already been going on for years, requesting a pardon even though he hasn't been convicted.

Benjamin Netanyahu insists he will be exonerated, even if the trial does come to a conclusion. His argument, framed across 111 pages, is that the trial is such a distraction that it is damaging the national interest and affecting…...
