Downing Street has hit out at "people trying to interfere in our democracy and seeking to stir up division", after JD Vance's comments on the murder of Henry Nowak. The US vice-president blamed the death of the 18-year-old British student, who was fatally stabbed last year in Southampton by Vickrum Digwa, on the "mass invasion of migrants" and said the "only response" was "righteous anger". After the post on X, the Downing Street spokesman said the Nowak family had "said they do not want his death to be used to create further division".

Instead, Democrats are about to nominate another extreme candidate that could allow Republicans to expand their majority in the upper chamber. And Abdul el-Sayed might join
