The Rosebank oil development, given the green light by Rishi Sunak's government, was ruled to have been unlawful due to a lack of clarity on just how much CO2 would be emitted by the project.

Maybe you're that person that loves taking photos. I know that I am. I have thousands. I don't know where the ones that are most meaningful to me really are.

Now, it's been a tricky week for Keir Starmer. In between dealing with Trump and the EU, revelations from a new book, Get In, The Inside Story of Labour Under Starmer, have put his leadership style into question.
