Dear reader, It all feels very familiar – Parliament is to consider a Brexit bill, but a rebellion is growing among backbench MPs. The issue of contention is the Internal Market Bill and the fact that it breaches international law. As ever, The Telegraph brings you the best coverage of Brexit, with both the Prime Minister and the Leader of the Opposition writing for us on the debate. On Saturday, Boris Johnson blamed the EU for threatening the integrity of the United Kingdom and made the case for why passing the Bill is the only way both to protect the UK and to secure a good deal with Brussels. Responding in The Sunday Telegraph, Sir Keir Starmer, the Labour leader, accused the Prime Minister of breaking his promise to “Get Brexit Done” by reopening last year’s deal and warned that it was a distraction from the coronavirus pandemic. The race towards producing viable vaccines against Covid-19 continues, but, as Miranda Levy discovers, the noise and resistance from “anti-vax” conspiracy theorists is growing stronger in parallel. Miranda finds out why and what can be done to combat it. Finally, tomorrow is Battle of Britain Day, marking 80 years since the most intense 24 hours of that critical conflict. We sent our defence correspondent and resident pilot, Dominic Nicholls, up in a tandem Spitfire to experience the plane first hand. In a piece equal parts thrilling and fascinating, Dominic explains the challenges RAF pilots faced and the brilliance of the Spitfire in flight. Chris | |
