GB News: Rachel Reeves urged to impose mega new tax hikes by close ally as benefits U-turn sparks new black hole
Jim O'Neill, a former Treasury minister, urged Labour's Rachel Reeves to reconsider her pledge not to raise taxes for working people. He warned that without tax increases, Labour may struggle to fund key initiatives like Northern Powerhouse Rail and small modular nuclear reactors.
Recent polling suggests Labour could be overtaken by Reform UK in an upcoming election, prompting concerns about their political strategy. Following significant concessions on welfare reforms, Labour may need to consider tax hikes in the Autumn Budget to address a £5 billion gap in public finances.
The Federalist: SCOTUS Ruling Against Universal Injunctions Didn't Do Enough
The Supreme Court's ruling in Trump v. CASA limits the use of universal injunctions, which had allowed a single favorable judge to block presidential policies nationwide. This decision is seen as a victory for the rule of law, countering what some view as judicial overreach.
However, concerns remain about potential loopholes, such as states suing on behalf of residents, which could lead to similar outcomes as the previous regime of universal injunctions. The effectiveness of this ruling will depend on the actions of lower court judges and Congress's ability to assert control over the judiciary.

Le Monde: French teenager goes missing in 'worrying disappearance' while cycling across Iran
Lennart Monterlos, an 18-year-old French-German national, has been missing in Iran since June 16, 2025, during a cycling trip. French officials express concern and are in contact with his family, while warning against travel to Iran due to its alleged hostage-taking policies.
Iran reportedly holds around 20 European nationals, with some arrested on espionage charges related to Israel. French nationals Cecile Kohler and Jacques Paris have been detained since May 2022. France's Foreign Minister has demanded their release but did not confirm if Monterlos's case was discussed.
