A 28-year-old white British male is in custody after being arrested on Saturday. Assistant Chief Constable Matt Longman provided additional details on the investigation at a press briefing on Sunday (12 July) morning, telling media the arrest took place in Rotherham. There is still "nothing to suggest" it is a terrorism related or politically motivated crime, he added. "And at this point, we are not looking for anyone else in connection with this murder." ACC Longman also said more than 120 tips from the public have been received since a police appeal for information. Ms Widdecombe was found dead at her home in Haytor, on the edge of Dartmoor, at around 11.40am on Thursday. Police believe the former Conservative minister was attacked at around 12.30pm on Wednesday - nearly 24 hours before her body was discovered with "serious injuries". Devon and Cornwall Police said: "We can confirm that a 28-year-old man was arrested at an address in the South Yorkshire area this evening (July 11) on suspicion of the murder of Ann Widdecombe. "The suspect, who is a white British national, is now in police custody." The force said that it was supported by Counter Terrorism Policing North East, while South Yorkshire Police carried out the arrest, but added there is "still no information to suggest that this is a terrorism-related incident". A 26-year-old man initially arrested by the force on suspicion of the murder of Ms Widdecombe was released from custody on Saturday, with police stating that he was no longer part of their investigation. Ms Widdecombe served as a Conservative MP from 1987 to 2010. She then returned to frontline politics as a prominent voice in the Vote Leave campaign ahead of the 2016 EU referendum, before joining the Brexit Party in 2019, serving as a Member of the European Parliament. Ms Widdecombe joined Reform UK in 2023, and became the party's immigration and justice spokesperson. Reform MPs given extra security Nigel Farage visited Devon to lay a wreath for Ms Widdecombe on Saturday as it was confirmed Reform MPs have been given 24-hour security, paid for by the party, for fear of similar attacks. Mr Farage said in a tribute on Friday that Ms Widdecombe's death was "a terrible reflection on modern Britain". "And I do fear that for anybody in public life, or especially the political space, things have become even more dangerous to them," he added. Widdecombe's missed TV appearance As the police piece together the timeline of Ms Widdecombe's death, it was revealed that the former MP had missed a planned TV interview on Wednesday afternoon. She had appeared on Mark Dolan's TalkTV programme earlier in the day, and was due to feature on Matt Allwright's Channel 5 show. More from Sky News:Tributes pour in for Dermot MurnaghanUS senator and Trump ally dies WhatsApp messages published by ITV appear to show Ms Widdecombe stopped responding to messages from a producer on the programme around the time police believe the attack took place. She last sent a message at 12.19pm, acknowledging she had received a Zoom link, but did not respond when she was asked to join the call at 12.48pm.

Ms Burrell joined the BBC show in 2018, and was among the team of specialists who examined and appraised items brought in by members of the public. The TV star was diagnosed with glioblastoma, a highly aggressive and incurable form of brain tumour with a life expectancy of 12-18 months, in June 2022. Following her diagnosis, she became a vocal advocate for the fight against the disease, with campaign work focused on increasing government funding, improved diagnostic times, and the advancement of clinical trials. She became a patron of Brain Tumour Research in 2023. In a statement shared on her Instagram account on Saturday, Ms Burrell's family said: "It is with great sadness that I share the news that Theo passed away peacefully surrounded by her family on Wednesday afternoon. "Neither she nor her medical team foresaw this happening quite so quickly. "She was an incredible person who fought hard for her family, friends and raising awareness of this cruel disease." The statement continued: "She saw life events, like her son's first day at school and her wedding that a little over four years ago, we thought she'd never see. "The cancer community provided so much comfort and strength to her in her darkest moments. "But most of all it provided hope, and I think what she would want most of all is for other people to find hope in her story. Hope that the statistics aren't gospel, and that one day they'll be very different." Ms Burrell was diagnosed at the age of 35 after several months of worsening symptoms, and later underwent treatments including life-extending surgery, radiotherapy and chemotherapy. The TV star had previously discussed having "dark thoughts" after her diagnosis, and expressed fears that she "wouldn't see my son's second birthday". "But I'm lucky enough to say I did! And no one can take that away from me," she wrote in a recent Instagram post. Ms Burrell married her husband Alex earlier this year, saying on social media that it "feels so nice" to finally be wed after many years together. Around 3,200 people a year are diagnosed with Glioblastoma in the UK, of whom about 160 will live for five years or more. There has been no advance in treatments for two decades.

"She was always very open about her prognosis, and knew from the outset her cancer was terminal, but she was absolutely determined to make a difference for others. "She constantly inspired us with how big her heart was, and we will continue on our mission, driven by everything she taught us. "Our thoughts are with her family, her friends and with all those who had the privilege of knowing her."

Baroness Harman praised Burnham for saying he will reach out more to the Parliamentary Labour Party (PLP), attending their weekly meetings and voting alongside Labour MPs in parliament. Politics latest: Follow live She also backed Burnham's claim that he will require ministers to engage with Labour MPs more, and to use the whipping system as more like a HR department rather than to "punish" MPs. But speaking to our political editor Beth Rigby on Sky's Electoral Dysfunction podcast, former Scottish Tory leader Ruth Davidson called Burnham's plans "absolute vapid bollocks". Baroness Harman, who was deputy Labour leader from 2007 to 2015, said Burnham has "got this different organism now, which is not just ministers sitting in their departments and him sitting in Number 10 and issuing edicts from the whips, but a kind of bottom-up thing from MPs' constituencies right through to Number 10 and him as prime minister, because he'll be mingling with them on a regular basis". "And I cannot tell you how different that is from how things work currently," she added. Baroness Davidson, however, was sceptical that Burnham would attend a meeting of the PLP every week. She said that if Burnham attends the PLP more than once every three months it would be "nonsense". She criticised "the idea that he's gonna stay home and do that instead of go to the G7 or NATO". Burnham received 322 nominations to become Labour leader on Thursday, with nominations open until Wednesday. He's expected to become Labour leader on 17 July, and prime minister on 20 July. Baroness Harman added that while a lot of Labour MPs "wish we weren't here and it had worked out better for Starmer", most are "really, really happy" about Burnham likely becoming leader. But, she said there were still "tough choices" that Burnham would have to make, such as on welfare reform. It was the discontent of many Labour MPs over Starmer's attempt to reduce the welfare bill that some have cited as the beginning of his leadership troubles, which ended with his resignation last month. Burnham has said he will devolve more power to mayors to help people get back into work, which he hopes will reduce the benefits bill.

Both are supremely self-confident, honest and opinionated, and they expect the highest of standards from everyone around them. Both are winners, and want nothing more than for England to win the World Cup. But here's the rub - each has a different idea about how Jude Bellingham should best be utilised for England to try to achieve that goal. While the Real Madrid star has traditionally wanted a much freer role to influence the game, the head coach has told him to work within the team system he has devised. Tuchel's deliberate tactic has been to use more stick than carrot with his talisman, to try to mould him into an ever-better player. His praise has always been measured, monitored and carefully targeted. Like an over-strict father to his precocious son, who can't quite find it in himself to praise his brilliant offspring in public. The German coach has very rarely praised Bellingham's ability, nor his unique capacity to inspire his team-mates and drive the side on to a higher level. Instead, he has focused his compliments on the moments when Bellingham has toed the line, sacrificed himself for the team, worked tirelessly off the ball. Neville's goosebumps over Bellingham: I have never seen anything like itMerson: Teams win leagues, X-factor wins World Cups - and Bellingham has itWorld Cup semi-finals schedule | Report: Norway 1-2 EnglandFollow it all on the Sky Sports App | Golden Boot race And, it could be argued, it has worked. Bellingham has been the best form of himself for England at this World Cup - eclipsing his performances for Real where the Galactico spirit hails all things individual, all things superstar. If you look at his statistics from the quarter-final, you get the full picture of what a complete player he is. As well as the obvious attacking prowess, where he scored more goals, had more shots, more shots on target, and had more touches in the opposition box than anyone else on the pitch, he also won more duels and was second for the number of times he successfully pressured an opponent in their own half. Tuchel can claim much credit for that all-round dominance. The battle of wills between the two has lasted for more than 18 months. At its worst moment a year ago, it led to Tuchel ill-advisedly saying his own mother sometimes finds Bellingham "repulsive" on the pitch. That really upset Bellingham, and his family. Tuchel apologised, and it has now been mostly smoothed over. It seemed bizarre in October when Tuchel went to extremes to try to force his message through to his star man by dropping him from the England squad completely for the friendly against Wales and the World Cup qualifier against Latvia. Forty-eight hours before Tuchel announced his Bellingham-free squad, the 22-year-old had been named England's player of the year. Pointedly, Tuchel didn't sugarcoat the message by suggesting that maybe Bellingham needed a rest, or that he was nursing an old injury. "Team spirit is the key factor in the end," said Tuchel at the time, emphasising he wanted to stick with the players who had done well in the previous camp, when Bellingham was unavailable because of a shoulder injury. Was that clever man-management from Tuchel? Give the superstar a kick when his nation didn't need him, so that he is even more motivated right now when England need him desperately? Back to this World Cup, and after the quarter-final win over Norway in Miami, Bellingham bristled when I asked him his thoughts on what Tuchel had said - namely, that overall the boss thought it was a "sloppy" team performance, and that England had ridden their luck. Bellingham's spiky response fired back, saying Tuchel didn't know what it was like to play in a top-level knockout game in temperatures that were the equivalent of 44 Celsius. Was that a dig at the fact Tuchel's short and unspectacular playing career in Germany never hit the heights before a knee injury forced him to retire at the age of 25? Probably. Bellingham had won La Liga, the UEFA Super Cup and the Champions League by the age of 22. There was mitigation for both, in what each said post match. And both were correct in their sentiment. Bellingham was utterly drained. He had given his all, and then some. You could see it in his eyes. And he was still elated from making it to his first World Cup semi-final, when in walked the Sky Sports News journalist to tell him that his boss had just said he wasn't happy with the performance. Bellingham's response was perfectly understandable. As for Tuchel, he was right to say that England's performance was lacking quality [with the notable exception of Bellingham and a handful of others], that England rode their luck with Norway's disallowed goal and the mysterious "spidercam wire" shenanigans. He was also absolutely correct to suggest England will need to play much better if they are to beat Argentina in the semi-final, and then either Spain or France in the World Cup final. It was a spontaneous spilling of bile, but it was also a call to arms for the squad. Bellingham was right too. He felt that Tuchel was diminishing the Goliath-like effort that he and his England team-mates had put in, in the most humid and difficult conditions that any of them had ever played in. Bellingham speaking up for his team-mates, praising their efforts and sheer will to win was admirable. And ironically, it was exactly the sort of collective-feeling Tuchel had been calling for from the Real man for months. So, forget any suggestion there is a rift between Tuchel and Bellingham. There isn't. There are just two hyper-competitive, super-passionate sportsmen, at the top of their game, driving each other to new heights. This love-hate relationship has been going on ever since The Football Association appointed a new head coach 18 months ago. Everything you have seen from the two, and between the two, men is positive, it's healthy, and it's great news for England in their hopes of winning the World Cup.

The blaze near Vallentin Road and Shernhall Street has affected two houses, around 30 gardens and sheds as well as a railway embankment, London Fire Brigade (LFB) said. People in the area were advised to keep their windows and doors closed due to a "significant amount of smoke", but the advice has since been lifted with the fire being brought under control by 10.35pm. Motorists were also advised to avoid the area, and the Weaver Overground railway line was partially closed. More than 100 calls were made to the fire service from around 6.30pm on Sunday. Local MP Stella Creasy said there had been "an electrical fire on the train lines", but LFB said the cause of the blaze is unknown. "We have got a major incident in Wood Street," she said. "There is a serious fire with a lot of roads and people being evacuated." LFB said two rest centres have been set up for residents affected by the fire, which in a later update Ms Creasy said were being closed down as most residents were allowed to return home. She said there were no known injuries, while most properties in the area had not been damaged, although there has been damage to sheds and gardens. LFB Assistant Commissioner Tom Goodall said: "The Brigade will retain a significant presence on the scene through the night, working to fully extinguish the fire."

The BRIT Award-winning track has spent 16 consecutive weeks at the top of the charts, overtaking Wet Wet Wet's Love Is All Around, which set the previous record during the Four Weddings And A Funeral phenomenon of 1994. Wet Wet Wet offered Fender and Dean "huge congratulations," telling Sky News: "It's great to see amazing British artists continuing to produce songs that connect with so many people." Wet Wet Wet is now made up of Graeme Clark, Graeme Duffin and vocalist Kevin Simm, who joined the band in 2018, after former frontman Marti Pellow left the band in 2017. The band added: "We've always been incredibly proud of what Love Is All Around achieved and to hold that record for more than 30 years is something we never imagined when we first recorded the song. "It's been a huge part of our story ever since and we have the privilege of performing it to audiences on tour, seeing thousands of people sing every word back to us night after night." Meanwhile, Rein Me In could yet climb even higher up the all-time rankings. The song has drawn level with Bryan Adams' 1991 hit (Everything I Do) I Do It For You, from the movie Robin Hood: Prince Of Thieves, as the joint second longest-running No 1 single in UK chart history. Only Frankie Laine's I Believe from 1958 spent longer in the top spot. The success marks another milestone in an extraordinary chart run for Rein Me In, which was originally released by Fender more than a year ago as part of his third studio album, before being reworked as a duet with Dean. The song took 35 weeks from its chart debut to reach No 1 - the longest climb to the top in UK chart history - before finally reaching No. 1 in February 2026. Since then, it has become Fender's first UK No 1 single, the longest-running No 1 of the 2020s, and the only song in UK chart history to return to No 1 on four separate occasions during the same chart run. It is also only the second single ever to spend a full calendar year inside the UK Top 40. Earlier this year, Rein Me In was named Song of the Year at the 2026 BRIT Awards.

Rachel Reeves says if Nigel Farage wants to "spend the summer arguing with a bin" then that's up to him. The Reform leader triggered a by-election by resigning this week. He is standing again to fight for the seat. Count Binface is one of those planning to stand against him in Clacton but the main parties will not be there. Beth, Ruth and Harriet dig into whether there are cracks in Farage's plan to reset the narrative after claims about his financial arrangements. Plus, Beth is fresh off the prime minister's plane from Turkey where Sir Keir Starmer was given an illegal gift he couldn't bring back with him. Andy Burnham has also promised MPs an overhaul in party culture. Harriet and Ruth debate whether the changes will ever happen.

McCullum took over the red-ball side in the spring of 2022 and brought about an immediate uplift in form with his 'Bazball' style, winning 11 of his first 13 Tests in charge after England had secured only one victory in 17 games prior to his appointment. However, England have lost eight of their last 12 Tests under the 44-year-old - and won only three - following the recent 2-1 home series loss to New Zealand, which followed a 4-1 Ashes hammering over the winter on a tour littered with errors on and off the field. England cricket news, views and reportsListen to the Sky Sports Cricket PodcastStream England cricket without a contract McCullum said he was "gutted" to be leaving as Test boss, with ECB chief executive Richard Gould saying "the time is right to make a change" as England build towards the home Ashes next summer. England managing director Rob Key - who appointed McCullum four years ago - will stay on in his role, as confirmed by Gould on Sky Sports. Gould admitted an interim solution may be required for the three-match Test series with Pakistan, which begins at Headingley on August 19. "There could be interim but we'll go through the options. We have got a shortlist of candidates that represent global talent," Gould added. "Ideally, we'll have someone in place for the Pakistan Test, but that also clashes with other franchise tournaments and international fixtures around the world. Therefore if we need to take a little bit longer to get the person we want, we'll take that time." McCullum: 'Privilege' to coach England Test team McCullum became white-ball coach in early 2025 and although his first major tournament was a failure - a group-stage exit at that spring's Champions Trophy - he has just led England to the top of the T20 international rankings with a 4-0 demolition of India. England reached the semi-finals of the T20 World Cup earlier this year before a narrow seven-run defeat to eventual champions India, with McCullum also contracted until the end of the next 50-over World Cup in Africa in late 2027. It is all change for the Test team with England not only needing to find a replacement for McCullum as coach but also for Ben Stokes as captain, after the latter called time on his international career following the defeat to New Zealand at Trent Bridge. McCullum said: "I've absolutely loved coaching the Test side and I'm incredibly proud of what we've achieved together. There've been some unbelievable highs and a few tough days along the way, but that's all part of taking on a challenge like this. "It's been a privilege and an honour, and I'm grateful. Grateful to the players, the staff and the fans who supported us on the journey. "Of course I'm gutted not to be continuing, but I respect the decision. My focus now is on giving everything I've got to the white-ball teams and helping England keep moving forward. "I wish the Test team nothing but success. There's a hell of a lot of talent in that dressing room and they're a special bunch of lads. "I'll always be backing the boys, with a smile on my face, and hoping they keep taking the game on. I know they'll continue to make people proud." Bazball starts with a bang but then fizzles out England's achievements in the Bazball era included a 3-0 sweep at home to New Zealand to kick off the McCullum-Stokes alliance and then the same result in Pakistan in late 2022, during which they scored 500 on day one of the Rawalpindi Test. However, England were unable to win any of the four marquee five-Test series they played against India or Australia - drawing with those heavyweights at home and being drubbed away - with their overaggressive batting costing them on many occasions. Drinking issues have also blighted the side with white-ball captain Harry Brook - the front-runner to replace Stokes in the Test role, perhaps even more so now after helming the 4-0 T20 thrashing of India - hit by a bouncer outside a nightclub in New Zealand last October, the evening before England played a one-day international. During The Ashes, a video seemingly showing batter Ben Duckett drunk during a beach break in Noosa emerged, while Stokes and seam bowler Gus Atkinson missed the second Test against New Zealand at The Oval last month after breaking a midnight curfew that had been installed after the raft of incidents over the winter. Stokes and Atkinson were cleared of any misconduct after a situation in a nightclub which saw a member of ECB security personnel require stiches after being struck by a punch aimed at Atkinson from a Saracens academy rugby player. Key: McCullum leaves Test side poised to achieve great things On McCullum's departure as Test coach, Key said: "Some of England's most memorable moments in recent history have occurred under Brendon's leadership of the Test team. "It's been an absolute privilege to watch him shape the mentality of the team, to one the players have loved, and see him develop a new generation of talent who will be at the heart of England men's teams for years to come. "He leaves the Test team well-set and poised to achieve great things." Gould added: "Brendon breathed new life into England men's Test team during an exciting period which saw some amazing victories, and we're grateful for all he has given to the role. "We now believe that the time is right to make a change for the Test team as we target victory in The Ashes next summer." Who takes charge post-Bazball? Analysis from Sky Sports' Adam Williams: There should be no shortage of candidates to succeed Brendon McCullum as Test head coach and the names could be shortlisted from both at home and overseas. Former Australia coach Justin Langer - who has been been in charge of Lucknow Super Giants in the IPL since July 2023 - will probably feature at the top of most lists with significant experience in English domestic cricket. Former England captain Andrew Flintoff is the current coach of the England Lions and would be a ready-made internal promotion for the ECB and would need little handover in terms of getting to know the talent at his disposal. Andy Flower was previously England head coach at a time the Test side made it to No 1 in the world and secured a famous away Ashes series win in 2011, and has been tipped by Nasser Hussain as the perfect antidote to England's attention-to-detail crisis. Former England batter Jonathan Trott has been out of work since standing down as Afghanistan head coach earlier this year, but has significanrt coaching credentials after taking them to the 2024 T20 World Cup semi-finals. Peter Moores has had two previous stints as England head coach and having steered Nottinghamshire to the County Championship title last summer is arguably among the most revered domestic coaches, but a third stint seems a long shot. Surrey director of cricket Gareth Batty could also be thrown into the ring in the same bracket, aftetr The former having overseen a flurry of championship titles in recent years. Mickey Arthur has bags of experience of experience at international level having coached his native South Africa as well as Australia, Pakistan and Sri Lanka over the past 20 years, and is currently into a fifth year at Derbyshire. Former Australia batter and head coach Darren Lehmann falls into the same bracket as the current coach of Northamptonshire, but feels an unlikely appointment given his role in the sandpaper scandal that saw Steve Smith stripped of his test captaincy.
