12.07.2025 โข The Fuel Switch Revelation
โจThe UK media on July 12th predominantly focused on the unfolding investigation into the Air India plane crash. Early reports revealed that engine fuel switches were cut off before the incident, a finding that prompted bewilderment and demands for answers from victim families. This ongoing development deepened as the day progressed, with later reports highlighting prior warnings from 2018 regarding the very fuel control switches now under scrutiny. Concurrently, domestic political narratives continued to evolve. The escalating clash between the Unite union and Angela Rayner within the Labour party remained a prominent story, building on previous day's tensions. Discussions around Jeremy Corbyn's new political party also featured. By the afternoon, royal engagements, notably Princess Kate's appearance at Wimbledon and later reports of a "secret peace summit" between King Charles and Prince Harry's aides, gained significant attention.
