At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The education secretary has given the strongest signal yet that the government will scrap the two-child benefit cap, saying that lifting it is certainly something we are considering.
In an attempt to position his party as the true opposition to Labour, Nigel Farage is expected to accuse the government of lacking the will to bring net migration down to zero.
Bridget Phillipson dubbed Reform UK just not serious, claiming Mr Farage would dismantle the NHS as we know it and undermine our ability to deliver free breakfast clubs.
