Europa League final and Keir Starmer has made a shock winter fuel payments U-turn. JAY SLATER'S MUM BREAKS DOWN IN TEARS AS SHE BEGS MISSING PALS TO COME FORWARD Last summer, Jay
Slater's disappearance in Ibiza grabbed headlines across the UK, with many theorising what could have happened to the British teen until his death was tragically announced. This
Wednesday, Jay Slater's name returned to headlines as our news team live blogged his inquest - taking place to establish the events that led to Jay's death, Jay Slater's mum
broke down in tears at the inquest into her son's death. She told the court: I know you have tried to locate them but how can we ever get any understanding we know he died and he had an

matches of the season, as Manchester United are set to take on Tottenham Hotspurs in a hotly anticipated all-English Europa League final. The two teams are aiming to put their rotten seasons
behind them by claiming silverware with success in the Europa League. While the final represents a huge chance to lift a trophy, it also offers each a chance to return to the Champions
League. Each side have seen their hopes of playing in the competition evaporate due to their league positions amid woeful league form. But both sides can put that right in the Basque
country. Both Ruben Amorim and Ange Postecoglou are each chasing a first trophy in English football. Both spoke in their pre-match press conferences on Tuesday, and while Amorim and the
United camp were in relaxed mood, the Spurs boss was anything but - in spiky mood as he hinted at this being his penultimate Spurs match. READ THE FULL STORY HERE. KEIR STARMER IN HUGE
WINTER FUEL U-TURN AS HE DROPS BOMBSHELL DURING PMQS During PMQs this Wednesday, our politics team broke the news that Keir Starmer said he wanted more pensioners to get winter fuel payments
in a huge U-turn on the controversial cut. The Prime Minister said with the economy showing signs of improvement he wants to ensure "more pensioners are eligible for winter fuel
payments". The surprise announcement at PMQs - a fortnight after No10 ruled out a change in policy - came amid mounting pressure to roll-back the decision to strip the £300 payment from
all but the very poorest pensioners. Labour has argued the unpopular decision - announced just weeks after the party's election victory last year - was necessary to fix the Tory mess
they inherited. But in recent weeks Labour MPs have blamed the policy for the party's bruising results at the local elections earlier this month and defeat to Reform UK at a key
by-election. Speaking at PMQs, Mr Starmer said: "We all know the economy was left in absolute mess by the Tories. We had to stabilise the economy with tough decisions but the right
decisions. Because of those decisions it is beginning to improve." READ THE FULL STORY HERE. EAMONN HOLMES, 65, AND GIRLFRIEND KATIE, 43, FINALLY GO INSTAGRAM OFFICIAL IN SWEET SNAPS

country today - as southern England is pummelled by heavy rain following the driest spring in decades. Met Office meteorologist Alex Burkill said it was "not out of the question that
we could see a funnel cloud, maybe even a brief tornado across parts of the South East" of England on Wednesday. Southern areas are also facing thunder, lightning, and hail. Burkill
added there was a "bit of a North-South split in our weather through today". While Northern parts have welcomed a lot of fine, sunny weather, the South has seen rain - "and
