Good evening,

In tonight's 5pm briefing, Jews in Britain experience an unprecedented surge in anti-Semitic incidents following a Hamas attack, Harry and Meghan introduce "Sussex" as their children's surname amidst website rebranding controversy, and as the UK enters a recession with worsening economic figures, calls intensify for Chancellor Jeremy Hunt to implement immediate tax cuts to stimulate growth. These developments span from a shocking rise in hate crimes and a royal rebranding, to urgent pleas for government action against an economic downturn.
