Just a few days ago, Britain’s new prime minister was confident she would be able to kick-start economic growth by cutting taxes. Yet the country is still on course for a recession.

The U-turn is being seen as a humiliating about-face that leaves Truss’s economic policy and premiership in crisis.
Elsewhere, another wake-up call on the cost of climate change from Hurricane Ian. And we speak to Boeing's vice president.
