Rarely in history has a nation so willingly and deliberately shot itself in the foot, yet continued to insist that the wound is an improvement. Brexit, what a waste of time and effort. https://t.co/vp6rb57Nq6

🚨 BREAKING: Rough sleeping will be decriminalised tomorrow as the Government repeals the 1824 Vagrancy Act

It means police won’t be able to move on homeless people sleeping or begging on the streets

The end of an era - After almost a century we said goodbye this morning to our great companion of the airwaves Radio 4 198 LW. I shall miss her warmth and crackle. Here’s the final sign off at the end of #theshippingforecast before she fell silent… ❤️

Is the UK worse off because of Brexit? Ten years on since the Brexit referendum, we've looked at this question in detail. The video is produced by Katerina Karelli - and it's longer than our usual explainers. I hope you find it helpful.

[World Cup 2026 @ofootball__]

🚨 FULL-TIME

🇨🇿 CZECHIA 0-3 MEXICO 🇲🇽

WHAT. A. PERFORMANCE.

[The Touchline | 𝐓 @TouchlineX]

📸 - Mexico have conceded 0 goals in 3 World Cup matches, 9/9 possibles points as of now.

They are winning 2-0 in the 77th minute… and Memo Ochoa comes on for a TRIBUTE to his legendary career.

He is not the starter in this World Cup and there was NO need for him to play today, but he still got his moment for one last dance.

HISTORIC. THIS IS WHY WE LOVE THE WORLD CUP. 🇲🇽❤️

[Fabrizio Romano @FabrizioRomano]

🚨🇿🇦🇲🇽 Mexico and South Africa fly to World Cup round of 32! ✨

Legendary achievement for South Africa, first time in their history at RO32. 🥹

Mexico win the group with 3/3 wins. 🌪️

[Will Hutton @williamnhutton]

10 years ago today we were digesting the Brexit vote. To be for Remain was to be tarred with being liberal establishment southerners - disciples of experts. Ten years on Britain, Europe and the west are all the weaker. We were right. And we must always have the courage to say so.

[YouGov @YouGov]

Fresh from Andy Burnham's victory in the Makerfield by-election, the public are divided in their opinion on the man expected to be the next prime minister

Favourable: 34% (+4 from 14-15 June)
Unfavourable: 38% (-3)
Net: -4 (+7)

Note: fieldwork largely conducted prior to Starmer's resignation

I think the issues now is when, and not if, we reach “Crossover”. The point where Reform are no longer ahead in the polls. And what the internal and external reaction will be.

[Ipsos in the UK @Ipsos_in_the_UK]

Andy Burnham leads a list of politicians as the politician most likely to do a good job as Prime Minister.

35% of Britons believe Burnham would do a good job, putting him ahead of Kemi Badenoch at 29% and Nigel Farage at 27%.

[Luke Tryl @LukeTryl]

How does voting intention change, when party leaders are named with Burnham as hypothetical Labour leader.
Labour go from 7pts behind Reform, to 1pts ahead gaining 6pts
Reform, Greens, Lib Dems also lose votes
The Tories gain one point.
Combined right/left share barely changes.

Here's David Cameron in 2016 explaining that if we leave the EU we'll be economically worse off and so have less money for public services

Here we are in 2026, worse off, and with less money for public services
