Transport secretary Louise Haigh’s downfall in 24 hours
Louise Haigh, the Transport Secretary, resigned following a conviction for fraud by misrepresentation related to a false claim about a stolen phone. The incident, initially reported as a mugging, led to an investigation by Aviva and subsequent police charges. Despite pleading guilty, Haigh maintained it was a genuine mistake. Her resignation was influenced by pressure from Labour Party leadership, including Keir Starmer, amid concerns over transparency and previous political challenges. Haigh's position was already precarious due to her criticism of DP World and internal disputes over departmental spending and rail union negotiations.

Ministers urged to cut ties with P&O Ferries owner over links to Russia
Calls have been made for the UK to reassess its financial ties with DP World due to its business dealings in Russia, particularly its involvement in the northern sea route project with Rosatom. Despite DP World's claims of not having active operations in Russia, its agreements with Rosatom have drawn criticism from Ukrainian officials and think tanks. The controversy is compounded by DP World's past actions with its subsidiary, P&O Ferries, which faced backlash for firing staff and exploiting legal loopholes. The UK government is under pressure to reconsider its stance on DP World's involvement in UK projects.
