US election 'interference' row awkward for Starmer if Trump wins
The Trump-Vance campaign accuses the UK Labour Party of interfering in the US election by supporting Kamala Harris, demanding an investigation. Labour's Sofia Patel's LinkedIn post about sending volunteers to the US sparked Republican backlash. US law allows foreign volunteers if unpaid, and there's no evidence of Labour's financial involvement. Historical precedents exist for cross-party support. Despite accusations, Labour insists no laws were broken, and UK-US relations remain stable. The article highlights ongoing political tensions and the potential impact on future US-UK relations.

Stimulate economy with building projects, CLC boss tells chancellor
Mark Reynolds, co-chair of the Construction Leadership Council, emphasizes the importance of publishing the UK's National Infrastructure and Construction Pipeline as a more effective economic stimulus than tax cuts. He urges Chancellor Jeremy Hunt to consider this ahead of the Autumn Statement, highlighting the pipeline's role in providing long-term certainty for government spending. Reynolds also advocates for tax incentives on affordable housing and VAT relief on greening homes, aiming for both immediate growth and long-term stability in the construction industry. The publication of the pipeline was previously delayed due to economic uncertainty under former Prime Minister Liz Truss.

How the Tories pushed universities to the brink of disaster
The article discusses the impact of 14 years of Tory rule on UK universities, highlighting a crisis in higher education funding and the decline in international student numbers.

UK set to ban tobacco sales for a ‘smoke-free’ generation. Will it work?
The UK Parliament has approved a historic plan to create a 'smoke-free' generation by gradually increasing the legal age for tobacco purchases, aiming to eradicate smoking among young people by 2040. The legislation, which still requires approval from the House of Lords, has sparked debate within the ruling Conservative Party, with some members opposing it as an infringement on personal freedoms. The bill also seeks to restrict vaping among young people. The initiative is part of a broader effort to reduce smoking-related diseases and deaths, aligning with similar measures in countries like New Zealand, Portugal, and Mexico.

Trump paints Labour as latest villain in his stolen election claims
Donald Trump has accused the UK's Labour Party of conspiring with Kamala Harris to interfere in the US election, claiming illegal contributions and foreign interference. The Trump campaign has filed a complaint with the Federal Election Commission, although such claims are unlikely to result in action. The Labour Party's involvement is part of a tradition of foreign volunteers in US elections, and Trump's allegations may be aimed at rallying voter emotions. The situation could impact UK-US relations, as recent efforts to build ties with Trump may be overshadowed by these accusations.

UK borrows more money ahead of expected tax cuts
The UK government borrowed £14.9 billion in October, marking the second highest October borrowing in 30 years. Between April and October, public sector borrowing reached £98.3 billion, which is £22 billion more than the same period last year but £17 billion less than predicted by the Office for Budget Responsibility (OBR). Financial analysts suggest this could provide Chancellor Jeremy Hunt with some flexibility for pre-election tax cuts. Prime Minister Rishi Sunak indicated a focus on tax reductions following a slowdown in inflation and stronger tax revenues. However, concerns remain about the UK's economic growth and rising public debt, which now stands at over £2.6 trillion.

WEB OF SPIES Jeremy Corbyn unwittingly used government documents stolen by Russian hackers to claim NHS ‘was up for sale’
The article reports on a series of cyber attacks by Russian state hackers targeting UK MPs, former MI6 spy chief Sir Richard Dearlove, SNP MP Stewart McDonald, and others. The National Cyber Security Centre (NCSC), part of GCHQ, attributed the attacks to the FSB's hackers, known as Star Blizzard. The attacks, which began in 2015, aimed to undermine trust in politics and included spear-phishing campaigns. Jeremy Corbyn was mentioned as having unwittingly used stolen documents in the 2019 General Election. The article also references previous Russian activities, such as the Novichok attack in Salisbury and the assassination of Alexander Litvinenko. The UK's allies in the Five Eyes issued joint cyber warnings, and the UK government has vowed to strengthen defenses against such espionage.
