Exclusive: In a message to staff, Poundland’s boss hails an £86m turnaround in the retailer’s fortunes.
But for almost two weeks, Poundland has been unable to buy new stock because its owner, Gordon Brothers, has restricted access to funding.
The business is selling what it has but cannot replenish its shelves. And administration looms.
What a mess. Full story 👇

All kosher food is labelled kosher already.
I have introduced a bill to introduce compulsory labelling of halal and kosher meat.
Consumers have a right to know what they are eating. Yet every day people are consuming halal and kosher meat without knowing it - that’s meat where the animal has its throat slit and often is not stunned before slaughter.
At its heart, this is a straightforward proposal built on consumer choice, animal welfare and transparency. It is not about banning halal or kosher meat but about the compulsory labelling of it, which is currently only voluntary, so as to ensure consumers know what they are buying.
What began as a limited religious exemption has become an increasingly significant part of meat production.

Did the interviewer know that my Jewish grandparents were expelled from Iraq and Tunisia, where their families had lived for centuries?
They can't go back or get citizenship either, yet no one questions it as "unequal" or "unfair."
They only do that to the one country, Israel, that took them in.

The President of Microsoft tells ITV News that AI has advanced faster than almost anyone predicted and warns that human beings risk losing control of the technology without urgent regulation.
Brad Smith calls for independent testing of new AI models, mandatory reporting when things go wrong and for what he calls an “emergency brake”.
He says governments should be able to order the shutdown of AI systems in the same way they can ground aircraft over safety concerns.

Miriam Margolyes just sounds like a run of the mill racist here. It’s very uncomfortable viewing.

This bloke was one of my lecturers at City University when I was doing my post grad. He was unpleasant at the time but this is truly disgusting and deranged.
I watched the BBC1 TV news at Six and was startled to watch coverage of this memorial. It far exceeded the news value of the occasion in length and content. As usual alarm about levels of ugly anti semitism lacked any proper context: the slaughter in Gaza bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cx2z…

7 years ago - my MND fundraiser made headlines and more importantly a big difference for a cause close to my heart.
Now very proud of my son Joseph who’s taken on a cricket challenge in honour of his Granny who he misses greatly.

And yet in many more ways - it was a match purely between Argentina and Spain.
"In many ways, this game, Argentina-Spain, was almost a proxy for Israel vs Palestine, rightly or wrongly."
@BardemAntarctic and @mehdirhasan discuss why Spain’s World Cup win was a defeat for Israel, given the latter’s loud support for Argentina.

ITV News has made a brilliant and evocative short documentary about the night the UK voted to leave the EU. You may find it triggering, or joyful, or profoundly depressing. I urge you to watch it
