The government has announced plans to make it a legal requirement for employers to include salaries in job adverts.
Prime Minister Andy Burnham confirmed the “say what you pay” law this week, and businesses are being encouraged to start publishing pay ranges now. No date has been set for the legislation yet.
James Gwinnett started a petition calling for this change in May 2025. It has since been signed by 2,685 people.

From today, adult content showing someone pretending to be under 16 is illegal in England and Wales. But a group of Oxfordshire schoolgirls has spotted the gap: put an adult in a school uniform, say she’s 17, and it’s still allowed.

It’s Bonfire Night, and on Change.org it’s also the busiest day of the year for fireworks petitions. 🎆
498 UK petitions. 2.85 million signatures. And 91% of people surveyed by the government back tighter rules.
Most aren’t asking for a complete ban. They want quieter fireworks and fewer bangs in back gardens.

A 14-year-old girl was attacked with a kitchen knife in a Cirencester shop. The boy who did it was given a 12-month referral order and a three-year restraining order. Because the case was handled in a youth court, it can’t be sent for review as too lenient.
The same judge, Ian Lawrie KC, handed a suspended sentence to a teenager convicted of raping a 17-year-old girl. He also gave community orders to a man who strangled his partner until she lost consciousness. That man was later jailed for 34 months on appeal.
More than 35,000 people are now calling for an independent review of Judge Lawrie’s sentencing decisions. You can add your name: c.org/FhgbLPqW

“These are essentially small bombs.” That’s how Alan Smith describes the fireworks that killed his mum.
Josephine Smith, 88, was asleep in her Romford home in October 2021 when a firework was pushed through her letterbox. The fireworks had been sold to a 15-year-old, who told staff he wanted to throw them at police and ‘terrorise people’.
Alan wants Challenge 25 made compulsory for every firework sale, along with quieter fireworks and use limited to key dates like Bonfire Night and New Year.

In just 24 hours, one political party was given £72 million. That’s more than every other party in the UK got in the whole of last year put together.
Right now, there’s no limit on how much one person can give.
This week, a new law on elections goes back to the House of Lords. It stops people giving in crypto, and it limits people living abroad to £100,000 a year. But people in the UK can still give as much as they like.
In June, Andy Burnham said he wanted a limit on donations. Canada, Australia, France and Italy already have one.

Poundland was sold for just £1 last year. This week it moved to call in administrators, putting around 12,000 jobs and 600 high street shops at risk.

In 2019, Leah Croucher was walking to work when she disappeared. She was 19. The man who killed her was a repeat sex offender who had been given a community sentence instead of prison only months before.
Her parents, Claire and John, are now campaigning for Leah’s Law: a mandatory minimum prison sentence for anyone convicted of a third sexual offence.
More than 100,000 of you have signed, and Leah’s parents have thanked everyone for their support. MPs are now taking the case to government. Leah’s parents want to show how much this matters by reaching 200,000 signatures.
