×The public inquiry into the Post Office Horizon scandal has published its first report into what went wrong and how the victims should be properly compensated. The inquiry's chair, Sir Wyn Williams, has found that at least 13 postmasters may have taken their own lives after being accused of wrongdoing based on evidence from the Horizon IT system which both the Post Office and its maker, Fujitsu, knew could be false. In today's episode Niall Paterson speaks to our business correspondent Paul Kelso about just how damning these findings are and also to former postmistress Janet Skinner who was sent to prison after wrongly being accused of stealing £59,000. Anyone feeling emotionally distressed or suicidal can call Samaritans for help on 116 123 or email jo@samaritans.org in the UK. In the US, call the Samaritans branch in your area or 1 (800) 273-TALK.

On the morning of 7 July 2005, four suicide bombers targeted London's transport network. We now know that three bombs were detonated on the underground and an hour later a fourth exploded on a bus, killing 52 people and injuring hundreds of others. But on the day itself, there was confusion for hours about the details of the scale and nature of the attacks. On today's Sky News Daily, Gareth Barlow speaks to our crime correspondent Martin Brunt, who recalls his experience of reporting for Sky News on that day and considers its lasting impact. Producer: Soila Apparicio Editor: Wendy Parker…
The Dalai Lama, Tenzin Gyatso, is turning 90 and has confirmed - after years of uncertainty - that he will have a successor after his death and will not chose to end the line. In Tibetan Buddhist tradition, the Dalai Lama is reincarnated after they die. Monks search, select, and school a successor – usually a child. The current Dalai Lama was recognised at the age of two. He and an estimated 150,000 Tibetans now live in exile in India, and other countries, after China annexed Tibet decades ago. And that makes who the next Dalai Lama is, a concern of China's. Joining Matt Barbett is Professor Robert Barnett, who founded the Modern Tibetan Studies Program at Columbia University and is now at University of London's School of Oriental and African Studies (SOAS). He has also met the Dalai Lama several times. Producers: Soila Apparicio and Emma Rae Woodhouse Editor: Wendy Parker…
The synthetic drug kush, first seen in Sierra Leone in 2022, has now spread into much of West Africa while also evolving into an even more dangerous drug. Tests have found it contains nitazenes which are 25 times stronger than fentanyl. Sky News has found that ingredients used to make kush are being shipped into Sierra Leone from the UK. In today's Sky News Daily, Gareth Barlow is joined by our Africa correspondent, Yousra Elbagir who has spoken to addicts and those trying to tackle the problem. Producer: Emily Hulme Editor: Wendy Parker…
While the world’s gaze turned to the Middle East, Russia has pushed on with its summer offensive against Ukraine, ramping up attacks. Meanwhile, the US has ordered a pause in sending weapons shipments to Ukraine due to concern about a low stockpile in America – but to what cost? In today's Sky News Daily, Gareth Barlow is joined by defence analyst Michael Clarke, who explains what’s going on in Ukraine and why attention has faded. Producers: Natalie Ktena and Emily Hulme Editor: Philly Beaumont…
The King is bidding the "fondest of farewells" to the nine-carriage royal train said to be Queen Elizabeth II's favourite form of transport. The announcement comes as part of the latest financial statement from Buckingham Palace which reveals the annual sovereign grant, which supports the duties of the Royal Family and is funded by the taxpayer, remained at £86.3m. In today's Sky News Daily, Gareth Barlow is joined by our royal correspondent Rhiannon Mills to dig into the figures. Plus, Gareth speaks to former Lib Dem MP and author of And What Do You Do? What The Royal Family Don't Want You To Know, Norman Baker, about why he believes the Royal Family offer a bad deal for Britain. Producer: Natalie Ktena Editors: Rosie Gillott and Philly Beaumont…
At their Glastonbury set on Saturday, punk-rap duo Bob Vylan's singer led chants of "death, death to the IDF". The chants have been labelled antisemitic by the BBC and the organisation has since apologised for airing the performance – but Shadow Home Secretary Chris Philp has called for the broadcaster to be prosecuted, saying they, "should not be transmitting hateful material designed to incite violence and conflict". The police have now launched a criminal investigation into the Glastonbury performance. What should the BBC have done and will they face prosecution? Host Sarah-Jane Mee speaks to the former head of Channel Four News and Current Affairs, Dorothy Byrne, to understand what the broadcaster should have done differently. She also speaks to legal expert Joshua Rozenberg about whether Bob Vylan's performance constitutes a hate crime and if the BBC may be prosecuted for broadcasting it. Producer: Natalie Ktena Editors: Philly Beaumont and Paul Stanworth…
Around 200,000 music fans have descended on Worthy Farm in Somerset for this year's Glastonbury Festival. Days before this year's event began, its owner, Michael Eavis, announced he was transferring most of his financial stake in Glastonbury to his daughter, Emily Eavis. So, who is the new owner of Glastonbury? Host Niall Paterson is joined by Sky's arts and entertainment editor Claire Gregory as they look back at the unlikely transformation of Michael Eavis, from dairy farmer to festival mastermind, and ask how Emily Eavis may shape Glastonbury's future. We also speak to artist Joe Rush, who has known Michael Eavis since 1985. Producer: Natalie Ktena Editors: Philly Beaumont and Rosie Gillott…
Recent years have seen the advent of weight loss drugs, including Ozempic and Wegovy. They work by suppressing users' appetites, leading to weight loss. They've been described as wonder drugs but now, new figures from the Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency (MHRA) show they may be associated with inflammation of the pancreas, which could lead to death. Niall Paterson speaks to Sky's science correspondent, Thomas Moore, about these new findings and how cautious they should make us. We also hear from Lorna, a mother who got acute pancreatitis while she was on a weight loss drug - she believes the drugs are not worth the risks. Producer: Natalie Ktena Editor: Philly Beaumont and Rosie Gillott…
The government has announced it is purchasing at least 12 new F-35 stealth jets that can carry nuclear warheads. It's a move that's been described by Downing Street as the most significant strengthening of the nation's nuclear capability in a generation. So, what are these jets? And why is the UK expanding its nuclear capability? Sarah-Jane Mee speaks to Dr Thomas Withington, an award-winning analyst and expert in air defence, to understand just how big a change in defence spending this is, what the move means for the UK in NATO, and what it tells us about the shift to make the country war ready. Producer: Natalie Ktena Editor: Philly Beaumont…
The 32 members of the NATO alliance are in the Netherlands for a summit that has been overshadowed by efforts to de-escalate tensions in the Middle East. World leaders are being encouraged to set a goal to spend 5% of their GDP on defence by 2035. US President Donald Trump has pushed for that target, but does he have a plan on what's next for NATO? On today's episode, Niall Paterson is joined by Security and Defence Editor Deborah Haynes who is at The Hague with a front row seat to the meeting. This episode contains bad language. Producer: Emily Hulme Editor: Rosie Gillot…
Iran is threatening to close the Strait of Hormuz, the world's busiest oil shipping channel, in retaliation for the US strikes on its nuclear facilities. How might the global economy be affected, including the price of oil? On today’s episode, Dominic Waghorn is joined by Sky News economics editor Ed Conway to discuss the consequences of Iran's next move. Producer: Natalie Ktena Editor: Paul Stanworth…
Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, Iran’s often reclusive supreme leader, surfaced this week to hit back at Donald Trump’s demands for an unconditional surrender. Khamanei first came to power as President of Iran in 1981, and he was a surprise choice for supreme leader eight years later. But since then, with the help of the Revolutionary Guard he has had almost complete control of Iran and its anti-Israel and anti-American foreign policy agenda. Sky’s Tom Cheshire speaks to Alex Vatanka, founding director of the Iran program at the Middle East Institute in Washington, DC about how Khamanei is viewed inside Iran and how his policies contributed to the current crisis. Producer: Soila Apparicio Assistant producer: Araminta Parker Editor: Wendy Parker…
The Horizon scandal captured the nation after the ITV drama Mr Bates vs the Post Office. And now, more faulty Post Office accounting software has been uncovered, in what some are calling a second Post Office scandal. Today, the government’s announced details of a compensation scheme for postmasters who suffered through using Capture in the 1990s. In today’s episode, Sarah-Jane Mee is joined by news correspondent Adele Robinson, who has unearthed new evidence to show the system was faulty and speaks to families devastated by the scandal. Producer: Emily Hulme Editor: Philly Beaumont…
Work and Pensions Secretary Liz Kendall has announced new protections in a bill which will attempt to cut benefits to more than three million households. In its current form, the government faces a big rebellion from dozens of Labour MPs over concerns that changes to welfare will drive families into poverty. On today's episode, Matt Barbet is joined by political correspondent Tamara Cohen to discuss the backlash from inside the Labour Party and the wider public. Producer: Emily Hulme Editor: Soila Apparicio…
