11.07.2025 โ‡ข The Union's Rebuke
โŒจUK media continued its focus on the UK-France migration agreement throughout the day. Early reports highlighted ongoing Channel crossings and skepticism surrounding the deal's effectiveness, with some outlets questioning its impact on migrant deterrence despite official statements of its imminent start. Concurrently, a significant domestic political narrative emerged as the Unite union suspended Angela Rayner's Labour membership, a move that progressed to an announcement of re-examining its relationship with the Labour party later in the day, signaling deepening internal tensions. Economic concerns also featured prominently, with reports of the UK economy shrinking. By the evening, a severe heatwave leading to widespread hosepipe bans became a significant domestic story, alongside developing investigations into the Air India plane crash, focusing on potential pilot error and fuel cut-off.
