The Memoir That Forced The Monarchy's Hand

King Charles has officially stripped his brother of his birthright title and kicked him out of the Royal Lodge.

We look at how the posthumously released memoir by his accuser, Virginia Giuffre, forced the Palace's hand and what this almost-unprecedented move signals for the future of the Royal Family.

And in headlines today, Former prince, Andrew Mountbatten Windsor is due to be stripped of his last remaining military position as part of King Charles' decision to remove his brother from public life; Property prices have recorded the sharpest growth in more than two years, the government's first home buyers scheme reportedly igniting demand for entry-level homes; Police in the UK say a knife attack on a train which put 11 people in hospital was not a terrorist incident, adding that two men, both UK citizens, had been arrested; Russia has joined the United States in publicly backing away from the idea of face-to-face talks between presidents Donald Trump and Vladimir Putin to discuss the war in Ukraine
