UK inflation fell by less than expected in March, sticking in double figures as households came under pressure from food and drink prices soaring at the fastest annual rate since 1977. The Office for National Statistics (ONS) said annual inflation as measured by the consumer prices index fell to 10.1% last month, resuming a downward trajectory after an unexpected rise to 10.4% in February. Inflation had peaked at 11.1% in October. City economists had forecast a drop to 9.8%. The odds of the Bank of England raising interest rates again next month jumped on the news, with markets pricing in a 97% chance that…

The pulse had been faint beforehand and, as expected, it was extinguished for Chelsea well before full time, this Champions League quarter-final exit sounding the death knell for their season. Frank Lampard’s team had a go, bringing the hustle in the first half and they almost fashioned a lifeline to counter the grave damage from the Bernabéu, N’Golo Kanté and Marc Cucurella missing clear chances. It was a night when Chelsea were heavy on perspiration, low on inspiration, Lampard’s lineup lacking the X factor, which is quite the oddity given the £550m lavished on new players by the ownership since their installation last May.…

Ministers have failed to tackle “appalling” and “glaring” racial disparities in maternal health despite repeated promises, MPs have said, as they called for new targets to eliminate inequalities. In a scathing report, the women and equalities committee said maternal death rates in deprived areas were on the rise, with women in the poorest areas about two and half times more likely to die in childbirth than those in the richest areas. Black women are still almost four times more likely to die from childbirth than white women, the report says, and too many black women receive treatment that “falls short…

Twitter will likely play a “significant” part in the 2024 presidential elections and other electoral contests both domestically and internationally, according to CEO Elon Musk. Musk made the comments in an interview with Fox News host Tucker Carlson that aired in two parts on April 17 and 18. Musk also admitted that it remains to be seen whether or not purchasing the platform for $44 billion last year was a good idea. “The goal of new Twitter is to be as fair and even-handed as possible. So not favoring any political ideology but being fair to all,” Musk said, referencing upcoming elections both at home and…

As Jürgen Klopp hailed his Liverpool players for their “best performance of the season”, Javi Gracia said he did not have an explanation for the defensive collapse that has seen Leeds concede 11 goals in two games. The interim Leeds manager looked shocked after watching his team lose 6-1 to Liverpool. “It’s hard to manage,” said Gracia, eight days after seeing relegation-threatened Leeds surrender 5-1 to Crystal Palace at home. “I don’t remember ever conceding so many goals in two games in my entire career but I am here to give my best to try and help the team and the club. At this…

The Scottish National party’s treasurer, Colin Beattie, has been arrested as a suspect in the police investigation into the party’s funding and finances.

Murrell was released later that day without charge, pending further investigation. Beattie, the SNP MSP for Midlothian North and Musselburgh and…
