'Police probe incidents before train attack' and 'tough but fair' Budget
Police are investigating missed opportunities before a train attack as a man is accused of stabbing 10 people on a train passing through Peterborough. The alleged attacker had potential links to other incidents including assaults and weapons offenses. Meanwhile, in budget news, Chancellor Rachel Reeves hints at potential tax increases of up to £30 billion in the upcoming Budget, with Labour MPs expecting tough but fair measures to tackle the national debt without drastic cuts to public spending.
