GB News: SHOCK analysis reveals how much Rayner's councils shakeup could cost YOU - 'unsustainable cost'
Labour's proposal to reform local councils in England aims to replace 185 two-tier authorities with unitary councils, which supporters claim will streamline governance and save money. However, analysis suggests that if these new councils serve populations under 500,000, they could actually cost taxpayers £850 million over five years.

Fox News: GOP's two top Dem Senate targets justify blocking bill to bar men from women's sports
Democratic Senators Jeanne Shaheen and Jon Ossoff voted against a bill aimed at preventing biological males from competing in women's sports, despite significant public support for the measure. They justified their votes by claiming the issue could be managed by existing organizations rather than federal legislation.
The bill, which sought to define gender based on reproductive biology, failed to advance due to a filibuster, with all voting Democrats opposing it. This decision has drawn criticism, particularly as polls indicate a majority of Americans, including many Democrats, support restrictions on transgender athletes in women's sports.
