The prime minister has warned that Reform UK “will tear this country apart” ahead of the Labour Party conference. Sir Keir Starmer said the conference would be an opportunity to show Labour's alternative to the "toxic divide and decline" offered by Nigel Farage’s party. But he faces mounting pressure, with polls showing Labour trailing Reform UK, alongside speculation that Greater Manchester mayor Andy Burnham could mount a leadership challenge.

He also explains in what direction he thinks the US Democratic Party should head.
