GB News: REVEALED: Staggering number of elections Labour has LOST since General Election as voters punish Starmer
Labour has faced significant losses in council elections, with a net loss of 35 seats and a 9.1% drop in vote share since July 2024, attributed to unpopular policies such as tax increases and cuts to pension benefits. The Conservative Party, despite challenges, gained 22 seats, indicating a shift back to the right.

Fox News: Michigan judge's order for Walmart shoplifters to wash cars squashed by his boss
A Michigan judge proposed that Walmart shoplifters perform free car washes as a form of community service, aiming to deter theft and engage the community. However, Chief Judge William Crawford II overruled the plan, stating it required prior approval and deviated from accepted methods of punishment.
Judge Jeffrey Clothier expressed disappointment but remains committed to finding creative solutions for addressing shoplifting, noting a significant rise in theft offenses at Walmart. He will now seek alternative community service options for offenders.
