GB News: REVEALED: Cash-in-hand jobs given to Channel migrants is 'driving force' behind UK’s illegal economy
Migrants arriving in the UK via small boats are reportedly engaging in cash-in-hand work within the country's illegal economy, which is valued at £260 billion. This shadow economy, representing 10% of the UK's total output, is draining billions in tax revenue as many work for below-market wages.
Research shows that one in 11 adults participates in black market work, with a notable increase since 2022. Home Secretary Yvette Cooper stated that the government is intensifying efforts to combat illegal working, including increased raids and arrests.

Republicans argue that allowing non-citizens to vote undermines the electoral process and could lead to foreign influence in local governance. They emphasize the need for consistent voting standards and express a commitment to securing elections.

The Telegraph: We must listen to the Baltic States. The Russian hybrid threat is growing
Nato Secretary General Mark Rutte warned that Russia may be prepared to use military force against Nato within five years, emphasizing the need for European countries to take the threat seriously. He highlighted Russia's ammunition production capabilities and the role of Chinese technology in bolstering its military.
While some in Western Europe found Rutte's warnings exaggerated, the Baltic States viewed them as insufficiently urgent. Rutte's previous support for the Nord Stream-2 pipeline and slow defense spending increases have made him unpopular in the region, fueling criticism of his latest remarks.
