Plans to "green" the UK's power system will protect consumers from future energy crises and has the potential to "bring down bills for good", the government has said.

There's a reason previous governments baulked at the net zero challenge - it's absolutely colossal, something Labour's new Clean Power 2030 plan lays bare.

The government is today demanding "immediate, mandatory" housing targets from councils as part of its plans to build 1.5 million houses by the next general election.

Sir Keir Starmer says there are "questions to be answered" over the murder of 10-year-old Sara Sharif, as a report reveals hundreds of children died or were seriously harmed by abuse in one year. 

Nobody doubts the level of ambition Keir Starmer is showing on housing. But will it work? That's unclear.
