    Andrew investigated over potential sex crimes | Single-sex spaces guidance | Bank Holiday heatwave

    22/05/2026 | 12 mins.
    Thames Valley Police are investigating Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor over potential sex crimes, it's understood.
    Officers are assessing allegations that Jeffrey Epstein sent a non-British woman to the UK in 2010 for a sexual encounter with Andrew, but have yet to interview her.
    Meanwhile the equalities watchdog has said in new guidance that single sex spaces - such as changing rooms and toilets - must be used on the basis of biological sex.
    This means a trans woman - a biological male who identifies as a woman - should not use female toilets or changing rooms, according to the code of conduct which has been approved by ministers.
    In politics, Rachel Reeves has announced a temporary cut to VAT on some family attractions as an attempt to ease cost of living pressures.
    It comes as there could be record-breaking temperatures over the Bank Holiday - with health warnings in place.
    Finally, Thomas Tuchel is set to announce his World Cup squad - and some big names will miss out.
    Anna Jones and Leah Boleto have the day's news in just 10 minutes.

    20/05/2026 | 10 mins.

    Surrey Police have confirmed it is investigating two separate allegations of child sexual abuse following the release of the Epstein files.

    Burnham the ‘clear favourite’ | Is the UK at risk of Ebola? | MAFS UK allegations

    19/05/2026 | 11 mins.
    Andy Burnham isn't even an MP but appears to already be pitching himself as the next prime minister - and if a latest opinion poll is anything to go by his confidence is justified.
    Meanwhile, Donald Trump says he has instructed his administration to call off strikes on Iran that were scheduled for today.
    However, he warned he could unleash a "full, large scale assault" on the country at a "moment's notice."
    It comes as the World Health Organisation has declared the deadly outbreak of Ebola in Africa an international health emergency - but the UK is said to be facing a "low risk".
    There's been a shocking development in relation to one of the country's most popular reality TV shows - with Channel 4 saying "very serious allegations of wrongdoing" have been made against a small number of past Married At First Sight UK contestants.
    Finally, Arsenal's 1 - 0 victory over Burnley last night has brought them one step closer to a first Premier League title in more than 20 years.
    A title triumph for Arsenal would also end Pep Guardiola's hopes of lifting a seventh Premier League trophy - as reports suggest the Sky Blues are preparing for his departure.

    Former Health Secretary Wes Streeting who resigned from the government on Thursday has announced he would like to see the UK rejoin the EU one day, as he announced he would stand in any Labour leadership contest.

    Supporters of Andy Burnham are reportedly furious with Mr Streeting, as they believe it is a deliberate attempt to raise the salience of Brexit in the leave-voting constituency of Makerfield, where the Greater Manchester Mayor hopes to stand as a parliamentary candidate.

    President Trump has threatened Iran, saying "the clock is ticking" and the country "better get moving, FAST, or there won't be anything left of them".

    The new BBC Director-General Matt Brittin starts his job today, but the corporation is under scrutiny following claims by former director of news and current affairs Fran Unsworth who has said she felt forced out after "bullying" from trans activists inside the corporation.

    And finally, Wolverhampton's Aaron Rai has become the First Englishman since 1919 to win the US PGA Championship.
