The Latest: Trump Returns to UN at Moment of Anxiety About Iran, AI and Future of World Body Itself
Burnham will say the UK is not on the slide and will set out a 10-year plan focused on affordability and living standards.
- Prime Minister Andy Burnham makes his United Nations debut on Tuesday in New York, holding his first face-to-face talks with US President Donald Trump on global security, Ukraine, the Middle East, and AI development.
- Burnham seeks a resolution on the Chagos Islands sovereignty deal, which remains paused since April following opposition from the Trump administration; he aims to secure the long-term operation of the joint UK-US military base on Diego Garcia.
- Following consultations with Defence Secretary Wes Streeting and Foreign Secretary Ed Miliband, Burnham confirmed British planes will provide "defensive" air-to-air refuelling for Saudi jets to counter Houthi missile attacks in the Red Sea region.
- Labour MPs warned the Treasury against lowering the mansion tax threshold to £1.5m ahead of Chancellor John Healey's October 28 Budget, fearing the change could hit "ordinary families" in London and affect 271,000 additional properties.
- Burnham will unveil a 10-year plan for Britain ahead of the Labour Party conference later this month, insisting the UK is not "on the slide" while addressing long-term issues to improve living standards.
