Britain may — very likely — soon have a new government under Andy Burnham. Amid the swirl of senior Labour figures vying for a place at the top table, one name keeps coming up: Ed Miliband. The energy secretary, who led the Labour party himself between 2010 and 2015 — when he was rejected by voters at the ballot box — is regarded by many MPs, as well as by bookmakers, as the frontrunner to be Burnham’s chancellor. The two men are longstanding political allies and have been in regular contact in recent weeks, including one-to-one phone calls about policy...

Newly released photos show the fatal wound Austin Metcalf suffered when Karmelo Anthony stabbed him with a $13 Walmart knife during a confrontation at a Texas high school track meet. The grisly images, made public Friday by Collin County court, show a deep gash in the 17-year-old football player’s chest, with a forensic ruler placed beside the wound.

🚨 BREAKING: This is the enhanced security camera footage that captured, from a distance, the final moments leading up to the fatal stabbing of Austin Metcalf by Karmelo Anthony.

This marks the first time the video has been made available to the public. Due to the camera’s distance and angle, the footage does not clearly show the physical interaction itself. However, it does appear to capture a brief exchange of movement beneath the...
