14 days ago The National

Manchester United put one foot on Wembley Way after taking firm control of their League Cup semi-final with a 3-0 first-leg win at Nottingham Forest. We played so good today and we controlled the game,” United centre-back Lisandro Martínez told Sky Sports. “We know [Forest] is doing a really good job but we never gave up.

Opposition calls grow for a UK general election

Winning a motion of no confidence in the Conservative government could trigger an early general election. But to win the vote in Parliament, some Conservative MPs would have to vote with the opposition. Mr Blackford insisted that “with a vacuum at the top of the Tory leadership”, the time was right to “trigger that motion and attempt to force a general election”. He argued it was now “vital that opposition parties work together to force a vote of no confidence, and pile pressure on the Tories to call a general election, so voters can decide”. I think we've got to a stage now where the people of this country think the only way you can press the reset button is to have a general election.

Attempt by Scottish Tories to defend changes of UK PM is desperate stuff

(Perhaps those who would argue otherwise can tell us the names of the Tory party deputies of David Cameron, Theresa May, Boris Johnson, Liz Truss, and now, Rishi Sunak?) READ MORE: Suella Braverman returns as UK Home Secretary under Rishi Sunak less than week after resignationPresumably you join a party believing in their ideology. What an irony since Liz Truss and I now have something in common: we both left a political party having been paid-up members. We’re the millions, not millionaires, about to see our public services slashed before being picked over by multinational conglomerates. Those members are a cross-section of the very people who voted to take back control (of borders) and fix immigration.

Oil prices settle higher as demand hopes outweigh concerns on economic downturn

Oil prices settled higher on Friday amid expectations of tighter crude supply, with hopes of stronger demand from China and a weakening US dollar outweighing concerns of a global economic downturn stemming from rising interest rates. Brent, the benchmark for two thirds of the world’s oil, settled up 1.12 per cent at $93.50 a barrel. West Texas Intermediate, the gauge that tracks US crude, closed 0.54 per cent higher at $85.05 a barrel. Oil prices gained on Thursday after China said it was considering reducing the quarantine period for visitors to 7 days from 10 days, Bloomberg reported. The EIA expects US crude oil production to reach 11.7 million bpd in 2022 and 12.4 million bpd in 2023, which would surpass a record high of 12.23 million bpd set in 2019.
