Chancellor addresses delegates after former prime minister says tax breaks should be used to incentivise more housebuilding
In a report last week the Institute for Fiscal Studies said the current parliament was likely to mark aa decisive and permanent shift to a higher-tax economya.
In its report, it also said that although this was partly because of the pandemic, government decisions taken before Covid were a more important factor. It said:
Only during and in the immediate aftermath of the two world wars have government revenues grown by as much as they have in the period since 2019. To some extent, this ought not to be a surprise: the Covid-19 pandemic represented the most significant economic dislocation since the second world war. But while the response to the pandemic and its after-effects does explain some of the tax rises announced in recent years, it is far from the only a or even the most significant a explanation. Instead, tax rises have largely been the consequence of a desire for higher government spending on things that pre-date the pandemic (such as manifesto promises to expand the NHS workforce and hire more police officers, and a September 2019 declaration to be aturning the page on austeritya).
I disagree with that analysis. One of the biggest reasons that weave had to see taxes go up is because our debt interest payments have gone up as a result of the energy shock. That has an enormous pressure on the public purse.
The other thing I disagree with the IFS on a normally I donat disagree with them, I do this time a is their suggestion this is a permanent rise in the level of taxation. I donat believe it has to be. If we are prepared to take difficult decisions about the way we spent taxpayersa money, to reform the deliver of public services, to reform the welfare state, thereas a chance to bring taxes down. But there arenat any short cuts.

Jupiter-mass binary objects floating freely in Orion Nebula appear to defy usual definition of planets
Dozens of planet-sized objects have been discovered in the Orion Nebula via observations that could herald the existence of a new astronomical category.
The free-floating entities, which have been named Jupiter-mass binary objects, or Jumbos, appear in spectacular images taken by the James Webb space telescope. The objects are too small to be stars, but also defy the conventional definition of a planet because they are not in orbit around a parent star.

Fans of Southampton FC are using court leet to try to get Itchen Bridge lights switched from rivalsa colours
In medieval times the court leet in Hampshire dealt with matters such as wrangles over water supply, the grazing of stock and what a proper measure of beer looked like.
On Tuesday, the age-old tribunal in Southampton will consider a modern controversy: why the lights on one of the cityas bridges beam out blue. Fans of Southampton Football Club are using the court process, which may date back 1,000 years, to try to get the Itchen Bridge lights switched from the colours of their fierce rivals Portsmouth FC.

In 1972, Susan was sexually assaulted by the TV presenter. A new four-part BBC drama, starring Steve Coogan as Savile, includes interviews with her and other survivors. This is her story
On the set of The Reckoning, the four-part BBC drama about Jimmy Savile, the horrific sexual abuse he committed and the culture that enabled it, Susan watched the monitors during filming. Steve Coogan plays Savile, the DJ and TV presenter who, after his death in 2011, was revealed as a sexual predator. aI got a shiver,a she says. It was the same, years before, whenever she saw Savile appear on TV. aHe would make me feel sick. He was creepy, just the most disgusting human being Iave ever met. Sleazy.a
Susan, who doesnat want to give her surname, is one of four survivors who are interviewed on camera, appearing alongside the drama. The writer Neil McKay approached her after she had been in the 2016 documentary made by Louis Theroux, his examination of how a during making a previous documentary on Savile, and their odd friendship that developed since a he failed to spot his abuse. McKay visited Susan around six years ago. It was daunting, she says, and at the time she had no idea she would feature in the film. aI might have had second thoughts,a she says. aBut I felt I needed to do it, to help anybody else. If I could do it, then hopefully thereas another woman somewhere whoas going through the same thing, who hasnat had the guts to come forward.a

Predicting the future lies at the heart of responding to climate change. We want to know what things will look like if we take certain actions to reduce greenhouse gas emissions a and what they will look like if we donat. The difference between the two provides the basis for weighing up the various climate policies that might be on the table.
But we arenat drawn to predictions just because weare interested in policy choices. Climate change is scary. Weare now regularly confronted with evidence of its impacts: droughts, heatwaves, wildfires, floods and so on. Predictions provide a peculiar sort of comfort: at least we have some idea of what the outcomes might look like. We can see whatas over the cliff rather than just imagining a void. Faced with the daunting threat of a changing world, it just feels better to know what the future might look like.

Sex toys, handbags and the occasional gun - the rivers, beaches and streets of the UK are covered in discarded waste. But every day, people are fighting back
On every street in Britain, youare likely to find a piece of litter. It is estimated that 2m pieces of rubbish are dropped in the UK every day, with 48% of people admitting to littering. Rubbish is not just a nuisance to look at, it can also endanger plants and animals, as well as indirectly contribute to the climate crisis. About APS1bn is spent by local authorities every year to clean up this mess, and, despite the introduction of charges for single-use plastic bags and fines for littering that range from APS150 to APS2,500, our habits of throwing waste anywhere but into a bin continue.
Yet, while there are litterers among us, there are also people taking matters into their own hands. Volunteers across the UK are using their free time to fight the rising tide of waste. We spoke to some of these litter battlers on the life-changing effects of creating clean streets and waterways.

A new study shows how verbal abuse affects children a and sows the seeds for long-term issues such as self-harm and anxiety
aSticks and stones may break my bones, but words will never hurt mea is a phrase often repeated to children in the hope that they will learn that they cannot be hurt by name-calling or verbal abuse. In fact, words are humansa most powerful tools, and harsh language used against children can damage them for the rest of their life.
It is natural to respond to a anaughtya child by shouting a and children are forgiving of, and are surprisingly empathic in relation to, parental stress. But let us not deceive ourselves that verbal intimidation such as shouting, yelling or screaming at children leaves no scars. Or that being humiliated and ridiculed leaves children unaffected.

- Haroon Mota is a mountaineer and the founder of Muslim Hikers
The British countryside is often perceived as universally accessible, a tranquil escape open for all to enjoy. But is this truly the case? From my experience as a member of and advocate for minority communities in the UK, it has become increasingly evident that time in the natural world is far less accessible to some of us than we would hope.
Iave been adventuring in the outdoors for nearly 20 years now, and from the very beginning I noticed that I wouldnat bump into people like myself in rural spaces, despite my city being very diverse.

Youad think a tax-obsessed Tory party would want to know what these exemptions add up to. We need transparency now
It is not uncommon for politicians to compare managing the public finances to running a household budget. Hence the frequent statements about greater public borrowing equating to maxing out the nationas credit card from Conservatives such as David Cameron and Rishi Sunak. Of course, this comparison is highly misleading a for a start, governments can raise money in tax and borrow more over a longer period of time.
But there is another way the comparison falls down. Households generally have an idea of their outgoings and how much money is being spent. But this isnat the case for government a at least not when it comes to tax relief, the cost of which is often unclear. Tax reliefs are a key part of the tax system. If a person sells their home, they do not have to pay capital gains tax on any rise in value of their property. In 2022 to 2023, capital gains tax relief on the sale of a main residence is estimated to have cost APS35bn. In the same year, income tax relief for registered pension schemes is estimated to have cost APS27bn. There are also some less well-known reliefs. Did you know that rock used for cutting building stone with one or more flat sides is exempt from the aggregates levy? In 2022 to 2023, this cost APS10m.

The home secretaryas assertion that multiculturalism has afaileda would have been considered beyond the pale even decades ago
Even by this governmentas standards, last week was bleak and this one, as the Tory conference gets under way, promises to be no less dispiriting. It is clear that Conservative party policy proposals and rhetoric are now nothing but wild last-ditch attempts to renew chances at the next election, but Suella Bravermanas latest assertion that multiculturalism has afaileda proved that when it comes to immigration, we have moved away from dog whistles and back towards the sort of Powellite language that, even decades ago, was considered beyond the pale.
Bravermanas comments were made to a handful of slouched thinktankers and journalists in Washington, and are no doubt part of her attempt to ingratiate herself with powerful, well-funded rightwing organisations as the voice of Tory future. But in the constant din of political campaigning, sloganeering and posturing about immigration, Bravermanas speech is a reminder of how badly millions of real people have been let down. The hostile environment, the ago homea vans, the acontrols on immigrationa mugs, the asmall boats weeka, and countless other dutiful pronouncements by both parties about acontrollinga immigration have all led to this point.

As more than 100,000 people flee to avoid rule by Azerbaijan, itas time for the EU to consider the prospect of membership for Armenia
The president of the self-declared aRepublic of Artsakha, Samvel Shahramanyan, has dissolved all institutions of the breakaway region of Nagorno-Karabakh and almost all Karabakh Armenians are now thought to fled the enclave being reintegrated into Azerbaijan. What lessons can be drawn from the tragic epilogue of this three decades-long secessionist conflict in Europe?
The images of long queues of cars escaping mountainous Karabakh to neighbouring Armenia bring back dark memories of ethnic cleansing that Europe thought had been relegated to its past. Just as Russiaas invasion of Ukraine, with its imperial follies, trenches and wanton destruction, catapulted Europe back into the harrowing days of the world wars, the flight of ethnic Armenians rewinds us to the Balkans of the 1990s a or even further back, to the end of the Ottoman empire during the first world war.

Record crowd but worrying defeat for Arsenal, VAR questions at Chelsea and encouraging starts for Leicester and Brighton
Arsenal may not be winning on the pitch but theyare winning off it. The Gunners broke the WSL attendance record for a third time with the 54,115 fans at the Emirates Stadium for their 1-0 defeat to Liverpool on Sunday. Arsenal are mastering the art of bringing the supporter base on board with watching the womenas team; the marketing and ticketing teams deserve a huge amount of credit for the numbers coming through the turnstiles. Meanwhile across London, Chelsea could only muster 14,776 for their 2-1 victory over Tottenham. It is staggering that the reigning champions, bidding for a fifth consecutive league title and with a squad stacked with international superstars, cannot get fans to show out in force. Ticket prices rising, with some as high as APS50, and the later Sunday kick-off may have impacted numbers. However, there is more to do to build crowds worthy of Emma Hayesa side. Suzanne Wrack

Leipzigas abrupt sacking of Max Eberl overshadowed a draw in which both clubs looked in need of better sporting direction
This weekendas Top-Spiel did exactly what the showpiece should a to an extent. Saturdayas early-evening Bundesliga match is positioned as the crown jewel of the weekend but even if a gripping draw between Leipzig and Bayern Munich ostensibly ticked all the boxes of entertainment and intrigue, the stomach still continued to rumble afterwards. This was a match and an occasion that, rather than delivering a statement, authored far more questions than answers.
With all manner of exciting talent on the field at Red Bull Arena this was played under the shadow of Max Eberl, abruptly fired by Leipzig on Friday with the club statement citing a alack of commitmenta which implied to many failing to sufficiently distance himself from speculation linking him with Bayern (whose interest in Eberl, to be clear, far predated his arrival at Leipzig). Oliver Mintzlaff, the clubas managing director, even went as far as to call his appointment of Eberl aa misjudgmenta during his Saturday night appearance on ZDFas Das Aktuelle Sportstudio.

Richarlison takes the eye while City and United have problems to solve after a series of Saturday surprises
Pre-season is supposedly a duff barometer of the campaign ahead. The main aim is to gain fitness and audition systems of play versus opposition preparing for their own season. Manchester United usually return from the summer money-spinners with a winning record and conscious that the real stuff of the Premier League is about to begin. Yet in the US this summer, Erik ten Hagas side won only the first game, against Arsenal, and lost to Wrexham, Borussia Dortmund and Real Madrid: to this observer, Unitedas form was a genuine warning of a misfiring unit and, so far, it has duly struggled - badly.

US city experienced wettest September in 140 years, with severe downpours last week causing many services to close
Torrential downpours across north-eastern parts of the US caused significant flooding and disruption last Friday.

One of the three terminals at LaGuardia airport was forced to close temporarily, and a sea lion briefly escaped from its enclosure at the Central Park zoo. The cityas governor, Kathy Hochul, declared a state of emergency, describing the situation as alife-threateninga, with millions of people put under flood watches and flash-flood warnings. No deaths or injuries have been reported.
A number of locations reported new record daily rainfall totals, with 226mm recorded at JFK airport and 150mm in Central Park since last Thursday. It was the wettest day ever recorded at JFK airport, with records dating back to 1948.

The senator was sometimes brave and ahead of her time, and sometimes stifled by the desire to not make waves
Flags are at half mast in San Franciscoas city hall for a woman who was born here and died in Washington DC at the end of a remarkable life. It was inside that building that the most dramatic and pivotal event of Dianne Feinsteinas political career took place, when a murderer made her mayor, the mayor who would become one of the countryas strongest leaders in response to the Aids crisis. That role gave her the visibility to run for the senate in 1992, and she held onto that seat to her dying day, showing up on Thursday to cast a vote in the budget battle, hours before her death at 90.
Senator Feinstein began her political career being ahead of her society and ended it by being behind it. This is not surprising for a public life in politics that stretched through 60 years of dramatic social and political change. But it may be hard to perceive for those who donat know she was early on a champion for womenas rights a including her own just to participate, at a time when that was groundbreaking a and for rights and recognition for queer people at a time when most politicians would only mention them to demand punishment and ostracization for them.

aSticks and stones may break my bones, but words will never hurt mea is a phrase often repeated to children in the hope that they will learn that they cannot be hurt by name-calling or verbal abuse. In fact, words are humansa most powerful tools, and harsh language used against children can damage them for the rest of their life.
It is natural to respond to a anaughtya child by shouting a and children are forgiving of, and are surprisingly empathic in relation to, parental stress. But let us not deceive ourselves that verbal intimidation such as shouting, yelling or screaming at children leaves no scars. Or that being humiliated and ridiculed leaves children unaffected.

As more than 100,000 people flee to avoid rule by Azerbaijan, itas time for the EU to consider the prospect of membership for Armenia

What lessons can be drawn from the tragic epilogue of this three decades-long secessionist conflict in Europe?
The images of long queues of cars escaping mountainous Karabakh to neighbouring Armenia bring back dark memories of ethnic cleansing that Europe thought had been relegated to its past. Just as Russiaas invasion of Ukraine, with its imperial follies, trenches and wanton destruction, catapulted Europe back into the harrowing days of the world wars, the flight of ethnic Armenians rewinds us to the Balkans of the 1990s a or even further back, to the end of the Ottoman empire during the first world war.

In contrast, Mayfield went 25-for-32 and threw for 246 yards and three touchdowns.

Yet in the US this summer, Erik ten Hagas side won only the first game, against Arsenal, and lost to Wrexham, Borussia Dortmund and Real Madrid: to this observer, Unitedas form was a genuine warning of a misfiring unit and, so far, it has duly struggled - badly.

Weare now regularly confronted with evidence of its impacts: droughts, heatwaves, wildfires, floods and so on. Predictions provide a peculiar sort of comfort: at least we have some idea of what the outcomes might look like. We can see whatas over the cliff rather than just imagining a void. Faced with the daunting threat of a changing world, it just feels better to know what the future might look like.

Flight attendants at the largest regional airline in the US, SkyWest, are seeking to unionize the airline, taking on what they claim is an illegal company union and pushing back on alleged retaliatory firings of two flight attendants who were leaders of an organizing campaign.
Flight attendants at SkyWest, which operates flights for Delta, United, American Airlines and Alaska Airlines, are currently represented by the SkyWest Inflight Association (SIA), a work group that does not purport to be a union and is supported and funded by the airline itself, according to a handbook for SIA representatives.

New York attorney general will argue Trump owes at least $250m in profits made from false financial statements. Plus, climate scientist Michael Mann on our last chance to save the planet
Good morning.
Just a few miles south of Trump Tower in New York City, a judge today will hear allegations of fraud within the Trump Organization in a trial that could lead to Donald Trump and his family business paying hundreds of millions of dollars in damages and that has already threatened to end his business career in the city where it started.
What has Trump said about the trial? Trump said he would appear in court today. aIam going to court tomorrow morning to fight for my name and reputation,a he said on his Truth Social account on Sunday.
Will there be a jury? No. The trial is a bench trial, meaning there will be no jury. The New York supreme court justice Arthur Engoron, who is presiding over the case, will be the sole decider. Because this is a civil trial, Trump will not be sent to prison if heas found guilty nor does he have to make an appearance in court.
What did Biden say? The president said: aWe cannot under any circumstances allow Americaas support for Ukraine to be interrupted. I fully expect the speaker to keep his commitment to secure the passage and support needed to help Ukraine as they defend themselves against aggression and brutality.a

Advocacy group says that a lack of gender equality at the UN is making it harder to combat a growing hostility to the issue around the world
Womenas rights have been ataken hostagea at the UN, and hard-fought gains are being eroded around the world, a group of former UN leaders has warned.
The group has called for the urgent implementation of a rule to put a woman at the helm of the general assembly every other year, to combat a growing hostility to gender equality. It comes after the UN secretary general, AntA3nio Guterres, pointed out at the UNas 78th general assembly, in New York last month, that it remained an almost all-male event. aJust four women signed our founding document,a he said. aOne look around this room shows not enough has changed. aWe the peoplea does not mean awe the mena.a
Women have led 33 of the most important institutions for only 12% of the time
Only a third of key multilateral organisations are headed by a woman
13 organisations, including the four largest development banks, have never been led by a woman
Only 24% of permanent representatives to the UN are women

Swift western pressure on Serbia to step back from conflict does not resolve the chronic problems of Kosovoas nationhood
The signs this weekend suggest that the immediate crisis over Kosovo has been defused. Some Serbian troops are pulling back from the border, and the threat of a return to armed conflict has receded for now.
The Biden administration acted decisively on Friday, drawing on some of the lessons from the run-up to the Ukraine invasion, going public with US intelligence on Serbian troops movements, and calling Belgrade to threaten sanctions and ostracism. The Nato peacekeeping force, Kfor, was immediately reinforced by the transfer of command of a battalion of British troops who were in the region for training.

The artist is returning to the inflammatory approach that caused a storm in the 1990s a with a harrowing film about a woman the Iranian authorities try to crush (warning: images contain nudity)
aEvery Iranian woman is a threat,a says Shirin Neshat, ajust by being a woman.a The artist is wearing a black T-shirt emblazoned with the words aWoman, Life, Freedoma a the slogan of the protest movement that erupted a year ago in Iran, following the death in custody of 22-year-old Mahsa Amini, who allegedly flouted her countryas strict dress code. Since 1981, veiling in public has been mandatory for every Iranian female over the age of nine, a law enforced by the amoralitya police.
Neshat, speaking via Zoom, turns the lens to show me the large, airy warehouse she works in. The artist, now 66, has lived in Brooklyn since the 1990s a longer than she lived in Iran. This week, she returns to Britain to open a new solo exhibition a her last London show, in 2020, was quickly closed down by the pandemic. Its title says a lot: The Fury, featuring a video and a series of photographs, is a blistering attack on Iranas government, a piercing protest against the use of womenas bodies as battlefields for national politics and personal desires.

The normally irrepressible Sy is stranded in cinematic no manas land in this familial story of the French armyas Senegalese corps
Already addressed in Rachid Boucharebas stirring Days of Glory from 2006, the overlooked wartime contributions of Franceas African troops get another airing in this new drama. This time, the film deals with the Senegalese corps rather than Maghrebi, and the industry has moved on enough to have a bona fide superstar of that heritage toplining, in the shape of Omar Sy. On its French release, Sy was hung out to dry in the press for suggesting that the west paid disproportionate attention to conflicts close to home, such as the war in Ukraine, rather than ones in the global south. How this timid and ineffectually dramatised film could have used some of that edge.
Sy plays Bakary, a Fula herdsman who is press-ganged into Franceas military ranks during the first world war along with his son Thierno (Alassane Diong). Terrified for his kid, he quickly begins looking for an out, trying to secure him a job in the mess safely away from the front. But Thierno scuppers the plan by getting in the good graces of Lieutenant Chambreau (Jonas Bloquet), who promotes him. Atypically non-racist and egalitarian, Chambreau is nevertheless still to be mistrusted because of his suicidal fixation on taking a nearby hill in order to impress his general father.

Refusing the aconfessionala tag and unafraid to break songwriting rules, the Chicago musician has written one of the most acclaimed debut albums of the year
Critics have long labelled female writers, artists and musicians as aconfessionala. It was once the case for Kara Jacksonas idol Joni Mitchell and it is now the case for Jackson herself. aI push back against this idea that what Iam doing is diaristic,a she says, suspicious of the gendered framing. aA lot of women are pigeonholed by this idea that theyare confessing. Mitski talks a lot about that. Sheas like: aI donat just draw something in my journal and sing it. I construct verses.aa
While each song of the US folk musicianas debut album Why Does the Earth Give Us People to Love?, sung in her uniquely cavernous voice against somber guitar arrangements, does feel like the distillation of a deep memory or emotion, Jackson is more often a narrator than a protagonist. From dates to funerals, she is a master of world-building and creates landscapes and narratives that feel immersive and soberingly real. As a result, the record has rightly become one of the yearas most critically acclaimed. aAs much as people think Iam being so vulnerable, sometimes I listen back to the album and think, aIam actually not really giving away that much,aa she says, wearing pink braids, jeans and a face mask as we chat in her labelas office in Notting Hill, west London.

As an influencer, Iam on my computer and phone all day. Itas bright screens 24/7. I frequently get headaches so they suggested I also get Botox above my browline for relief.

One chef has made it his mission never to compost
Very little food waste goes into the compost bin in Conor Spaceyas house. Instead, leftover cake goes in the freezer until it can be rebaked, carrot tops are used for pesto, and the water from a tin of chickpeas makes a cream substitute.
While Spacey, a chef from Wexford in south-east Ireland, doesnat eat meat, he has learned from butchers the value of using every piece of an animal, and applied it to fruit and vegetables.

Some of the best relationships are built on a shared dislike of something or someone. So donat hold back
If I tried to scroll back even a week in the WhatsApp window on my laptop, I would get RSI, but I donat need to do that to know how much complaining it contains. Itas at least 88% complaints by volume. In chats with my best friend alone, a search revealed 27 uses of aI hatea last month, 12 of atireda (surprisingly low!), plus various rants, whines, expletives and nonsense utterances representing general malaise.
Itas me more than her: I tallied up everything I said out loud to myself for a week earlier in the year and it was like Brian Cox in Succession fighting with Eeyore. Iad love to be a labrador puppy, spreading joy, but I fear Iam a morose little squid, squirting murky negativity ink over everyone. My friends complain a decent amount, too a we wouldnat be friends if they didnat a and Iave been wondering for a while whether all the moaning serves us well, or makes us feel worse.
