BREAKING: Support for Scottish independence falls to 39%, says an exclusive YouGov poll for Sky News 📺 Sky 501, Virgin 602, Freeview 233 and YouTube

The first vote on the government's Illegal Migration Bill is set to take place tonight.Caroline Nokes made her discomfort clear earlier, and Chris Skidmore has followed suit.

Fellow member Hannah Watters said:"I can see a lot of people being put off by the chaos and infighting that has been happening quite prominently in this leadership election." told Sky News her faith meant it was"wrong" to have children outside of marriage. She also said her religion would have meant she could not have voted for gay marriage if she had been a politician at the time of the historic vote.

Parts of the updated plans for the UK's defence policy have already been revealed in the media, which will probably leave the Speaker less than pleased. Foreign secretary James Cleverly said the additional funding will be given to the cross-government China capabilities programme. The spokesperson told reporters this afternoon that Mr Sunak is"pleased that this situation has been resolved, and that fans will be able to watch Match of the Day as normal this weekend".

Mr Sunak said the UK wants to"send a strong signal" not to support Russia in its"wrong" war against Ukraine. But he questioned how Mr Sharp could remain in post after taking Mr Lineker off air for his criticism of the government's illegal migration bill."They need to sort it out and sort it out fast. The Lineker row should prompt the government how it ensures"a truly independent and impartial BBC", she added.Sir Keir Starmer has renewed his criticism of the new illegal migration bill as he accuses the government of"trying to create political divides" rather than tackle the situation.
