Trump extends Iran ceasefire | Starmer faces calls to step down | Coventry win the Championship

About this episode

The episode discusses the extension of the Iran ceasefire by Donald Trump, political challenges faced by Sir Keir Starmer, and Coventry City's promotion to the Premier League.

Just hours before the ceasefire between the US and Iran was due to expire, Donald Trump said he would extend it until talks between the two countries have progressed. He also said the blockade of Iranian ports would continue until Tehran presents what he called a "unified proposal" to end the war. Sir Keir Starmer is facing a new headache after the former head of the foreign office, Sir Olly Robbins, gave evidence to a Foreign Affairs Committee in which he accused the Number 10 operation of having taken "a dismissive approach" to the security vetting of the since-fired ambassador. The airline Lufthansa has said 20,000 short-haul flights are being cut from its schedule this summer, blaming the decision on the cost of jet fuel. The children's commissioner has warned that too many children are still being subjected to "intrusive and traumatic" strip searches by the police. Coventry City have been promoted to the Premier League, as former champions Leicester are relegated to the third tier of English football. Sophy and Wilf have the day's news in just 10 minutes.
