ON THE Evening Edition with Kait Borsay (Times Radio, Thursday), the presenter previewed a “conundrum involving communion” at the General Synod with the paper’s live news editor, Tara Fair. Ms Fair blamed the “church rules” that state that actual bread and wine needed to be used in holy communion. Her fellow Christian Tim Stanley also worried that hero worship celebrated success and excess rather than moral character.

India vs England: India fall short at Lord’s, England lead series 2-1Former England cricketer Michael Atherton has addressed recent on-field cricket incidents, commenting on the shoulder barge between Mohammed Siraj and Ben Duckett during the third Test at Lord's, while also referencing similar incidents involving Virat Kohli and Sam Konstas.

"Six years ago to the day, Lord's had witnessed the most remarkable finish to any cricket match, when the World Cup final was decided on a boundary countback after a Super Over. Now the game delivered an extraordinary finish again, with two of the protagonists from that day, Stokes and Jofra Archer, taking centre stage," Atherton remarked.

Bank boss ready to cut rates if job market slows1 day ago Share Save Osmond Chia Business reporter, BBC News Share SaveReutersThe Bank of England is prepared to make larger interest rate cuts if the job market shows signs of slowing down, its governor has said. In an interview with the Times, Andrew Bailey said "I really do believe the path is downward" on interest rates. "Our big concern is a recession," he said, adding that a rate cut is "obviously a benefit to all of us". Interest rates were left unchanged during the Bank's last meeting in June, following two cuts earlier in the year. During that meeting, Mr Bailey also said interest rates would take a "gradual downward path".

Live Events(You can now subscribe to our(You can now subscribe to our Economic Times WhatsApp channelWashington: US President Donald Trump is set to make a historic second state visit to the UK, likely in September, following a formal invitation from King Charles III , The New York Times reported, citing Buckingham Palace 's statement.The King extended the invitation through a letter delivered by UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer during a visit to the Oval Office in February.According to The New York Times, Trump relished his last state visit to Britain in 2019, when Queen Elizabeth II hosted him.The queen threw him a lavish banquet at Buckingham Palace and gave him a royal artillery salute.In a documentary about his political comeback, "The Art of the Surge," Trump showed off a book of photos of himself and the queen, "who was fantastic, by the way," he said.But Trump picked a fight with London's mayor, Sadiq Khan , who is Muslim, just before his arrival, calling him a "stone-cold loser" on social media and accusing him of doing a terrible job of running Britain's capital city, as per The New York Times.Khan had described Trump as "just one of the most egregious examples of a growing global threat," likening the president's language to that used by "fascists of the 20th century. "He remains mayor, and there is little indication that their mutual antipathy has softened.The timing of Trump's visit makes it unlikely he will be accorded the honour of delivering a speech to Parliament, several British papers reported.It is usually not in session in late September because the country's political parties hold their annual policy conferences during that period.That could set up an awkward contrast with the visit of President Emmanuel Macron of France, who spoke to Parliament during his state visit last week.Like Macron, Trump will be hosted at Windsor Castle rather than Buckingham Palace, which is undergoing major renovations.Meanwhile, recently, Trump on Saturday announced a 30 per cent tariff on goods from Mexico and the European Union starting August 1, intensifying trade tensions with two of the country's top economic partners,In separate letters posted on Truth Social, Trump informed Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum Pardo and European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen about the tariff decision, citing border security and trade imbalances as key reasons, according to The Hill.In his letter to Sheinbaum Pardo, Trump referenced the ongoing fentanyl crisis as a major concern behind the decision. "Mexico has been helping me secure the border, BUT, what Mexico has done is not enough," the president wrote.As The Hill noted, the US had previously imposed a 25 per cent tariff on Mexican goods, though Trump later exempted items covered under the 2020 US-Mexico-Canada Agreement. It remains unclear whether those exemptions will still apply after the new tariffs take effect on August 1.

"The families we are representing are troubled and concerned by this preliminary report as it raises very serious questions against Boeing and Air India," said James Healy-Pratt, Aviation Partner at Keystone Law. "There is a documented history of faulty fuel cutoff switches, which clearly created an unsafe condition. "The families will be seeking to obtain answers from Boeing through action in the US courts and will continue discussions with Air India in London, England. "The families also note that the fuel cutoff switches transitioned from 'run' to 'cutoff' sequentially just three seconds after lift-off, with one pilot asking the other why he cutoff - and receiving a response that he did not do so. "The UK AAIB has 'expert' status in the Indian safety investigation.

[LONDON] Bank of England governor Andrew Bailey has warned the world’s largest banks against issuing their own stablecoins, setting up a potential clash with US President Donald Trump’s administration and its backing of the digital assets. Bailey also warned that stablecoins threaten to take money out of the banking system and leave less funds available for lending, according to The Times interview. The governor is also chair of the Financial Stability Board, which is responsible for monitoring risks in financial markets globally. Bailey also hinted that he did not want the UK to adopt a central bank digital currency (CBDC), known as the digital pound. He said it would be “sensible” for the UK to head towards digitising deposits instead of issuing a CBDC in response to private sector stablecoins.

President Trump will make a two-day state visit to Britain from Sept. 17 to 19, Buckingham Palace confirmed on Sunday, making him a rare head of state to be accorded a second such visit. King Charles III will play host to Mr. Trump and his wife, Melania, at Windsor Castle, the palace said in a statement. The king issued Mr. Trump a formal invitation last February in a letter presented to him by Prime Minister Keir Starmer during a visit to the Oval Office. The queen threw him a lavish banquet at Buckingham Palace and gave him a royal artillery salute. But Mr. Trump picked a fight with London’s mayor, Sadiq Khan, who is Muslim, just before his arrival, calling him a “stone cold loser” on social media and accusing him of doing a terrible job of running Britain’s capital city.

This will be Mr Trump’s second state visit to the UK – an unprecedented gesture towards an American leader, having previously been feted by a state visit in 2019. Mr Jones told ITV’s Good Morning Britain the Government was “looking forward to welcoming” Mr Trump. The late Queen hosted Mr Trump during his first state visit. The September state visit comes after Charles visited Canada back in May where he opened the nation’s parliament. This week, French president Mr Macron and his wife Brigitte were hosted by the King and Queen during his three-day state visit.
