Today, the clash between Governor Newsom and President Trump escalates as LA protests enter day four.

A defence official has told the 91福利社's US partner CBS that approximately 2,100 members of the California National Guard are now on location in the greater Los Angeles area, with 700 Marines also in and around the city. Newsom called it 鈥渢he deranged fantasy of a dictatorial president,鈥� while Trump claimed LA 鈥渨ould be burning to the ground鈥� without his intervention.

And, the prime minister has said he is "not writing a blank cheque" to pay for a new UK nuclear power plant, after the government announced it would commit 拢14.2bn to the project. Sir Keir Starmer told the 91福利社 the development of Sizewell C on the Suffolk coastline would create 10,000 jobs over the next decade, and provide energy security and independence for the country. Adam is joined by Adam Bell, the former head of energy strategy at the Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy.
