The UK government has announced a loan guarantee of up to £1.5 billion ($2 billion) to support Jaguar Land Rover (JLR) after a major cyberattack forced the carmaker to suspend production at its UK factories, the trade minister said on Sunday.JLR, the Tata Motors-owned luxury automaker, said earlier this month it was hit by hackers, disrupting operations and leaving its IT systems offline.The company began a "phased restart" last week but confirmed that vehicle production will remain suspended until at least October 1.Its three UK factories, which together produce around 1,000 cars daily and employ thousands around Birmingham and Liverpool, have been affected, Reuters reported.Trade minister Peter Kyle said the move would "help support the supply chain and protect skilled jobs in the West Midlands, Merseyside and throughout the UK. ""This cyberattack was not only an assault on an iconic British brand, but on our world-leading automotive sector and the men and women whose livelihoods depend on it," he added.The loan guarantee will not involve direct lending from the government. Instead, a government credit agency will back a commercial bank loan to JLR, which will be repaid over five years, AFP reported.The measure is aimed at stabilising the company’s finances and providing certainty to its supply chain, where some suppliers had warned of collapse due to delayed payments.JLR said the partial systems recovery has helped clear a backlog of supplier payments. Cyber gangs have recently stepped up attacks on high-profile UK brands, with Marks & Spencer, Harrods, and the Co-op among the targets.

Molly Guinness, who grew up in the brewer's Wiltshire property, Fosbury Manor, and works as an executive at Times Radio Breakfast has made clear her feelings about a first viewing of the new Netflix series tracing her family history. In an article in the Times on September 26, Ms Guinness wrote that while the show got the “wild family parties right”, she found herself driven to laughter and indignation on watching the show. Ms Guinness concludes: “So I confess I did have an episode of righteous fury, but I watched most of it in a vacuum because it was a preview. “The prospect of the laughter of all my brothers and cousins once they get their hands on it is a real joy. At all those parties where we only speak to each other, we have so much to discuss.”The show stars Happy Valley's James Norton, and Game Of Thrones star Jack Gleeson.

Read our Privacy noticeSir Keir Starmer has said he believes Labour can “pull this round” as the party goes into its annual conference with the prospect of being overtaken by Reform UK at the next election. The UK faces a “fork in the road” at the next election, between Labour and Reform, Sir Keir suggested – while the Tories are “dead”, he claimed. As he arrived in Liverpool for the conference, Sir Keir said it would be an opportunity to show Labour’s alternative to the “toxic divide and decline” offered by Reform. In a message aimed at rallying a divided Labour against Reform, Sir Keir told the Guardian: “History will not forgive us if we do not use every ounce of our energy to fight Reform. Ahead of the Labour conference, backbench MPs and unions renewed calls to end the two-child benefit cap.

The OBR has previously scored UK growth down by 4% due to the original Brexit deal. The chancellor believes that has set a precedent and that the OBR should include the projected economic upsides of a youth mobility scheme into its upcoming forecast. In response, the chancellor has stressed a series of measures aimed to help the economy grow faster, including further trade deals. If accepted by the independent forecasters, the inclusion of the proposed EU youth mobility scheme into its calculations could theoretically limit the extent of any new tax rises. The OBR has scored policy moves on house building and childcare as helpful to the economy in recent years.
