An Afghan national was jailed for five years on Tuesday after he was found guilty of making a threat to kill Nigel Farage, the leader of the populist Reform UK party which leads opinion polls in Britain.
Fayaz Khan was last week convicted by a jury at London’s Southwark Crown Court of a single count of making a threat to kill Farage in a TikTok video posted in October 2024.
The latest outlook from the IEA, which advises industrialised countries, expands its prediction of a 2026 surplus from about 3.3 million bpd last month
International News via Reuters:
The world oil market faces an even bigger surplus next year of as much as 4 million barrels per day as OPEC+ producers and rivals lift output and demand remains sluggish, the International Energy Agency predicted on Tuesday.
The latest outlook from the IEA, which advises industrialised countries, expands its prediction of a 2026 surplus from about 3.3 million bpd last month. A surplus of 4 million bpd would be equal to almost 4% of world demand, and is much larger than other analysts’ predictions.
OPEC+ is adding more crude to the market after the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries, Russia and other allies decided to unwind some output cuts more rapidly than earlier scheduled. The extra supply is adding to fears of a glut and weighing on oil prices this year.
IEA LIFTS OUTLOOK FOR SUPPLY, TRIMS DEMAND FORECAST
In the IEA’s view, supply is rising far faster than demand. This year, it expects supply to rise by 3.0 million bpd, up from 2.7 million bpd previously. Next year, supply will rise by a further 2.4 million bpd, it said.
The agency on Tuesday also trimmed its forecast for world demand growth this year to 710,000 bpd, down 30,000 bpd from the previous forecast, citing a more challenging economic backdrop.
“Oil use will remain subdued over the remainder of 2025 and in 2026, resulting in annual gains forecast at around 700,000 barrels per day in both years,” the IEA said in a monthly report.
“This is well below historical trend, as a harsher macro climate and transport electrification make for a sharp deceleration in oil consumption growth.”
IEA demand forecasts are at the lower end of the industry range, as the agency expects a faster transition to renewable energy sources than some other forecasters such as OPEC.
On Monday OPEC maintained its forecast that demand will rise by 1.3 million bpd this year, almost double the rate expected by the IEA, and said the world economy was doing well.
Oil prices declined on Tuesday, with Brent crude trading just below $62 a barrel. That was still up from a 2025 low of near $58 in April.
GLUT LOOMS
The IEA has been saying the world market looks oversupplied. Tuesday’s report said global oil supply in September was up by 5.6 million bpd from a year ago, with OPEC+ accounting for 3.1 million bpd of the increase.
In a sign of extra supply heading to the market, the IEA said the amount of oil currently seaborne in September rose by 102 million barrels, which it called the largest increase since the COVID-19 pandemic, partly due to surging Middle East production.
As well as OPEC+, supply growth next year will also come from outside producers such as the U.S., Canada, Brazil and Guyana, the IEA said.
The IEA’s view on the potential surplus is larger than that of others. A Reuters poll of analysts in September suggested the market could face an oversupply of 1.6 million bpd in 2026.
OPEC, in contrast, expects world oil supply to closely match demand next year, because it sees a much slower rate of expansion from outside OPEC+ as well as stronger demand.

Under the proposals being considered, UK asset managers would be able to create crypto tokens representing shares in their funds, using public blockchains like Ethereum
International News via Reuters:
Britain’s financial regulator set out plans on Tuesday to encourage asset managers to “tokenise” their funds on blockchain, in a move aimed at attracting younger investors.
Under the proposals being considered, UK asset managers would be able to create crypto tokens representing shares in their funds, using public blockchains like Ethereum. Until now, funds had only been able to use private blockchains.
Tokenisation – the process of creating blockchain-based versions of financial assets – has seen a revival of interest this year, helped by rising crypto prices and U.S. President Donald Trump’s support for the crypto industry. Proponents say it can improve efficiency and cut the costs of fund management.
BRITAIN SEEKING A BIGGER ROLE IN CRYPTO
“Tokenisation has the potential to drive fundamental changes in asset management, with benefits for the industry and consumers,” Simon Walls, executive director of markets at Britain’s Financial Conduct Authority, said in a statement launching a consultation on the plans.
The move is the latest sign of Britain’s push to promote digital assets. The country’s finance ministry last month announced plans to co-operate with the U.S. on crypto.
The FCA also sought feedback on whether to allow stablecoins – crypto assets that are pegged to a fiat currency – to be used as settlement for the funds.
In a press briefing, Nike Trost, interim director buy-side at the FCA, acknowledged that the benefits could take a while to materialise, as firms take time to upgrade their technology.
The watchdog said it was minded to act as technology was driving changes in consumer expectations around investing. Almost half (47%) of the users of trading apps are aged 18-34, the FCA said, and such apps typically sell low-cost investments in shares, or fractions of them, rather than funds.
The regulator said the possibility of allowing regulated funds to invest in cryptocurrencies would be considered in a future review.

Prime Minister Sebastien Lecornu, reappointed on Friday having quit at the start of last week, presented a 2026 budget bill to parliament on Tuesday
International News via Reuters:
The French government’s 2026 budget plans are based on rosy economic assumptions and its belt-tightening measures may fall short – or never even take shape if the new administration collapses, the independent fiscal watchdog said on Tuesday.
Prime Minister Sebastien Lecornu, reappointed on Friday having quit at the start of last week, presented a 2026 budget bill to parliament on Tuesday while facing the prospect of a no-confidence vote if his leftist opponents cannot stomach his budget plans.
With the risk premium on French bonds high and credit ratings under pressure, financial markets are increasingly sensitive to the political turmoil as it makes the prospect of France getting its fiscal house in order seem ever more remote.
The euro zone’s second-largest economy has a budget deficit nearly double the European Union’s 3% limit last year and a debt-to-GDP ratio heading towards 118% – the third-highest in the EU after Greece and Italy, according to Eurostat.
President Emmanuel Macron has tasked five different prime ministers in less than two years with reducing the deficit, the widest in the euro zone, to get the country’s public finances back on an even keel.
But having lost control of parliament, and with opposition parties vehemently opposing his budget-squeezing plans, Macron’s prime ministers have been toppled one after another, taking their fiscal plans with them.
Lecornu’s budget, already submitted to the Haut Conseil des Finances Publiques for review, aims to narrow the deficit to between 4.7% and 5% of GDP — a modest improvement from this year’s 5.4%, the fiscal watchdog said.
The plan hinges on a more than 30 billion euro ($34.7 billion) budget squeeze, including cuts to corporate tax breaks, tighter rules on social welfare contributions, and new levies such as a small parcel tax and an exceptional surtax on complementary health insurers, the Haut Conseil said.
It also clamps down on the taxation of holding companies used by wealthy people to lower their tax bills, stopping short of a 2% tax on wealth over 100 million euros as demanded by the Socialists.
“Overall, the public balance forecast for 2026 submitted to the Haut Conseil is weakened by an optimistic economic scenario and, more importantly, by the risk that the projected revenue and savings measures may be under-delivered — or may simply not materialise at all,” it said.
The government forecasts the economy will grow 1% next year, which the watchdog said was based on stronger private demand despite tougher belt-tightening. The watchdog does not issue its own forecasts.
The budget squeeze, equivalent to 1% of gross domestic product, is made up of 17 billion euros in spending cuts and nearly 14 billion in new taxes, the Haut Conseil said.

The pound was last down 0.5% against the dollar at $1.3279 , having traded in modestly positive territory before the data was released
International News via Reuters:
Sterling fell on Tuesday after data showed growth in average British earnings slowed slightly in the three months to August, suggesting the Bank of England may be able to continue cutting interest rates, albeit at a very cautious pace.
The pound was last down 0.5% against the dollar at $1.3279 , having traded in modestly positive territory before the data was released.
It also softened against the euro, which was up 0.5% at 87.18 pence, on track for its biggest daily jump in nearly a month.
Average weekly earnings, excluding bonuses, were 4.7% higher in the June-August period than a year earlier, the Office for National Statistics said, slightly weaker than an increase of 4.8% in the three months to July and the slowest since May 2022.
In the private sector alone – watched closely by the BoE – earnings excluding bonuses rose by 4.4% in the three months to August, while the jobless rate edged higher to 4.8%.
“While all data are subject to revision (and should be taken with a pinch of salt), one thing is clear: slack continues to build in the labour market,” said Sanjay Raja, Deutsche Bank’s chief UK economist.
He said the data should ‘give ammunition’ for the doves on the BoE’s rate-setting monetary policy committee – those who typically lean towards lower interest rates – while providing the centrists on the MPC with “some food for thought”.
“We continue to think that a (fourth quarter) rate cut may be underpriced by markets,” he said.
Markets are not fully pricing a further BoE rate cut until March, but see around a 40% chance of a cut in December.
Yields on British government bonds also fell, with the 10-year gilt yield down 5 basis points at 4.61%, falling slightly more than European peers.
Gross domestic product data due later in the week, along with inflation data next week, will offer further indications about the health of the British economy and the prospect of further BoE rate cuts.

Harbour Road crash renews calls for discussion on road safety
A crash on Harbour Road that resulted in a car veering into the ocean at the weekend has renewed concerns about road safety.
Just before noon on Saturday, a vehicle crashed through a wall and landed in the harbour near the junction with Belmont Road in Warwick.
Police say it appears that a car driven in the westbound lane of Harbour Road crossed into the opposite lane and struck a wall, ending up in the water below.
The cause of the crash has not been confirmed, but the incident has renewed calls from residents for improved safety along that stretch of road.
David LaHuta, a journalist who has lived on Harbour Road for eight years, praised his neighbour, Darren Mills, for his swift and heroic actions in coordinating the rescue of the occupants – a 38-year-old female driver and two children.
Mr LaHuta said: “He’s a guest worker, a visitor in our country, and he took it upon himself to jump into the water and save their lives. I have to say, not all heroes wear capes, and he’s one of them.”
“We caught up that day to talk about his heroism, but moreover, it was a way to start a conversation about road safety in Bermuda and how dangerous this stretch of road truly is, and ways we could do better to protect our motorists here.”

Mr Mills, a plumber from South Africa, told Bermuda Broadcasting that he was the first on the scene and acted without hesitation.
“Thinking quick and acting fast saves lives,” Mr Mills said.
He explained that following the crash, he heard people screaming that they couldn’t swim, and his first thought was to get to the vehicle and bring the occupants to safety at a nearby dock.
He flagged down a car to call 911 before jumping into the water to reach the car, focusing on keeping the passengers calm and making sure they stayed above water until more help arrived.
Mr Mills said the car was filling up quickly with water and that the situation could have been different if the tide had been higher and moving faster, or if the dock hadn’t been there.
When others came to assist – including Ms Dyer, Ms Butterfield, and other gentlemen – he said they all worked together to pull the passengers out of the vehicle through the window.
Mr Mills expressed gratitude that he was in a position, along with others, to help the passengers, underscoring that quick thinking, calm action, and teamwork made all the difference.
“We all saved these people… everybody is a hero,” said Mr Mills.
Police also commended the actions of those who came to the aid of the driver and children involved.
Following the crash, police confirmed that all occupants were accounted for and taken to hospital for medical assessments and later discharged the same day.

Traffic was diverted away from the area for around three hours, while the scene was processed – which included the damaged car being removed from the sea by crane and then towed away – as well as the attendance of Works & Engineering crew for wall/roadway remediation efforts.
Area resident Mr LaHuta said he hopes the incident will spark much-needed discussion around road safety across the island.
“I feel like we see another terrible accident on this stretch of road every month,” said Mr LaHuta. “Something needs to change – whether that’s changing directional patterns for rush hours, making it eastbound in the morning and westbound in the evening – that could help. Adding rumble strips or speed bumps could also help. But something really needs to be done, because there are so many dangerous and horrific accidents that happen on this road. If more police need to be out monitoring driver speed, that’s important too. And really, we need to encourage all motorists around the island to slow down … that has to be the message.”
Police say inquiries continue regarding the circumstances of the collision and any witnesses are encouraged to contact BPS Constable Jameelah Sabir by calling 211or e-mailing jsabir@bps.bm.
It added that these new embassies would serve to launch joint projects involving agriculture, energy, education, mining and other common interests
International News via Reuters:
Venezuela’s government said on Monday it will close its embassies in Norway and Australia and open new ones in Burkina Faso and Zimbabwe as part of a restructuring of its foreign service, after weeks of growing tensions with the U.S.
The closures are part of the “strategic re-assignation of resources,” President Nicolas Maduro’s government said in a statement, adding that consular services to Venezuelans in Norway and Australia would be provided by diplomatic missions, with details to be shared in coming days.
Caracas said it was setting up new embassies in “two sister nations, strategic allies in the anti-colonial fight and in the resistance against hegemonic pressures.”
It added that these new embassies would serve to launch joint projects involving agriculture, energy, education, mining and other common interests.
The announcement occurred just days after the Nobel Committee in Oslo announced that Venezuelan opposition leader Maria Corina Machado had won the 2025 Nobel Peace Prize for fighting dictatorship in the South American country.
The embassy closures with the two U.S. allies also followed weeks of escalating tensions between Caracas and Washington.
Venezuela has called on the United Nations for support over several deadly U.S. military strikes on vessels off its Caribbean coast, which Washington alleges were carrying drugs. Some U.S. allies on the U.N. Security Council called for de-escalation and dialogue.
Venezuela has said it is in a situation where it is rational to expect an armed attack against the country in the short-term, and Maduro has alleged the U.S. is seeking a change in government.
Washington has not responded to this accusation, but has called Venezuela’s socialist leader the illegitimate head of a narco-state. The U.S. also has announced a new counter-narcotics task force in its Southern Command, a military branch that oversees Latin America.
The governments of Zimbabwe and Burkina Faso are more aligned with that of Russia, which has supported Venezuela at the U.N. and accused the U.S. of acting according to “the cowboy principle of ‘shoot first.'”

A UNCTAD report in July found that global foreign direct investment fell for a second consecutive year in 2024
International News via Reuters:
Small and medium-sized businesses and developing economies are likely to be at particular risk of a slowdown in investment due to ongoing tariff uncertainty, the Secretary-General of the UN Trade and Development Agency told Reuters on Monday.
“We fear that there will be more lagging numbers in terms of investment,” UNCTAD’s Rebeca Grynspan said in an interview at her office in Geneva.
“We fear small and medium-sized businesses will be affected everywhere, but also small countries that depend much more on trade and investment to really seek growth.”
While AI has driven trade and investment this year, she said, it remains concentrated and excludes small countries with developing economies.
A UNCTAD report in July found that global foreign direct investment fell for a second consecutive year in 2024, with concerns this year could be even worse as trade tensions rock investor confidence.
Since he took office in January, U.S. President Donald Trump’s tariff decisions have shaken financial markets and sent a wave of uncertainty through the global economy.
Grynspan said forecasts for 2026 hinge on whether the current trade tensions escalate into a full-blown trade war, or if higher tariffs persist amid ongoing trade negotiations.
“There is uncertainty, but there will be more predictability. The markets will adapt to the new situation,” she said.
Grynspan said the least developed countries in Africa and small island states were “worse off” and have less resilience amid trade uncertainties, as they face higher tariffs compared to developed nations.
While the EU has struck a deal setting duties at 15% on most goods it exports to the United States, they are often much higher on so-called least developing countries. Laos, for example, faces tariffs at 40%.
Grynspan urged the U.S. to spare vulnerable countries from higher tariffs. In July, Lesotho, a small African nation, received a modified tariff rate of 15% following Trump’s earlier threat of 50% tariffs.

The European Union’s corporate sustainability due diligence directive was adopted last year and requires companies to fix human rights and environmental issues in their supply chains
International News via Reuters:
The European Parliament’s legal committee on Monday backed plans to water down the EU’s corporate sustainability law, which is facing pushback from companies that say complying with the rules would hinder the competitiveness of European industries.
The European Union’s corporate sustainability due diligence directive (CSDDD) was adopted last year and requires companies to fix human rights and environmental issues in their supply chains, or face fines of 5% of global turnover.
In the vote on Monday, lawmakers in the European Parliament’s legal committee approved proposals that would make the rules mandatory only for companies with 5,000 or more employees and at least 1.5 billion euros ($1.74 billion) in turnover.
Currently, CSDDD applies to companies with 1,000 or more employees and above 450 million euros in turnover. The committee also backed dropping a requirement for companies to carry out “transition plans.”
CUTTING COSTS FOR BUSINESS
“The (conservative) European People’s Party’s goal has always been to simplify rules and cut costs for businesses,” said Jorgen Warborn, the lawmaker who drafted the text approved on Monday. “Our vote today will create more predictability for our businesses in an unpredictable world.”
The committee requested that the European Parliament now start negotiations on the final rules with EU countries, without a full vote of the assembly. A group of lawmakers equivalent to a tenth of the assembly could still decide to force a vote next week.
Some of the changes already appear likely to pass. EU countries have already said they support changing the law to apply only to companies with 5,000 or more employees.
The CSDDD has become one of the most politically contested parts of Europe’s green agenda, with countries including the United States and Qatar demanding changes. They argue that the EU is overstepping by imposing requirements on foreign companies.
European companies including TotalEnergies have demanded that the EU scrap the law entirely, warning it would hurt the bloc’s competitiveness.
But the walk-back has met resistance from some investors and activists, who say it weakens corporate accountability and hits Europe’s ability to attract investments toward meeting climate goals.
“If such changes are ultimately adopted, this law will be stripped of its very purpose for short-term political convenience,” said senior lawyer Amandine Van den Berghe of nonprofit law firm ClientEarth. “What is a cornerstone of responsible business in Europe is being turned into a political bargaining chip.”

Blades Brown, the 2024 Rolex Junior Player of the Year from Nashville, Tennessee, has earned an exemption into the 2025 Butterfield Bermuda Championship. The 18-year-old secured the prestigious American Junior Golf Association (AJGA) award following a remarkable season highlighted by a third-place finish at the AJGA Simplify Boys Championship, tied for third at the RLX Ralph Lauren Junior Classic and a runner-up finish at The Junior PLAYERS Championship presented by Rolex.
“Being named the 2024 AJGA Player of the Year is one of the greatest highlights of my junior golf career — a moment I’ll always carry with me,” said Blades Brown. “From the moment I learned I would be receiving the award, the opportunity to play in Bermuda has been at the forefront of my mind. I have heard nothing but incredible things about the tournament, the staff, the course, and the entire experience. I mean, who wouldn’t want to play golf in paradise? I’m truly grateful to the AJGA and the Butterfield Bermuda Championship for extending this invitation. It’s an honor to compete in 2025, and I sincerely hope it won’t be my last time teeing it up in Bermuda.”
The Butterfield Bermuda Championship continues its partnership with the AJGA, offering an annual exemption to the Rolex Junior Player of the Year. This collaboration provides a direct pathway for top junior golfers to compete at the professional level.
“We’re incredibly proud to continue our partnership with the AJGA and to welcome Blades Brown to Bermuda,” said Danielle Carrera, Tournament Director of the Butterfield Bermuda Championship. “Blades represents everything this exemption is meant to highlight — exceptional talent, dedication, and maturity beyond his years. His rapid rise through the ranks is inspiring, and we’re thrilled that Bermuda will be part of his journey. Fans can look forward to watching one of golf’s brightest young stars compete on one of the most breathtaking stages in the sport.”
In a historic milestone for the Butterfield Bermuda Championship, Blades Brown, the 2024 Rolex Junior Player of the Year, will be the first recipient to accept the tournament’s exemption as a professional rather than a junior golfer. Having turned professional in December 2024 at age 17, Brown’s transition to the pro ranks has been marked by rapid success, including earning Special Temporary Membership on the Korn Ferry Tour after accumulating over 237.718 points, the threshold for the No. 100 player on the 2024 Points List, with a runner-up finish at the Veritex Bank Championship and strong subsequent performances. This status, officially accepted after turning 18 on May 21, 2025, grants him unlimited sponsor exemptions, allowing him to accept the Butterfield Bermuda Championship exemption despite having already used all seven of his allotted PGA TOUR sponsor exemptions for the 2025 season.
Brown’s 2024 season was exceptional. In addition to his standout AJGA performances, he made his PGA TOUR debut as an amateur at the Myrtle Beach Classic, finishing an impressive T26. His 2025 season marked a significant transition as he turned professional in December 2024, forgoing college golf to pursue a full-time career on the PGA TOUR and Korn Ferry Tour. His professional debut came at The American Express in January 2025, where he carded an 8-under-par 64 in the second round, the third-lowest score by a player under 18 in a PGA TOUR event in the past 40 years. He has played in six PGA TOUR events and eight Korn Ferry Tour events since his pro debut, with his best finish coming in April at the Veritex Bank Championship, where he finished T2.
The AJGA has hosted the Butterfield Bermuda Junior Championship at Port Royal Golf Course since 2023. The 2025 event, held from January 16-19, featured 54 holes of stroke-play and welcomed top junior golfers from around the world. The tournament included three Bermuda natives, seven countries and 17 states represented. Phillips Swift of Macon, Georgia and Kayla Black of Ontario, Canada both claimed their first AJGA wins at the 2025 event.
“Blades embodies everything the Rolex Junior Player of the Year award represents — talent, hard work, and the ability to rise on the biggest stages,” said Patrick Cansfield, Director of Development at the American Junior Golf Association. “His exemption into the Butterfield Bermuda Championship is a well-deserved next step in his journey, and we are proud that the AJGA and the PGA Tour continue to provide a pathway for the game’s next generation to showcase their abilities at the highest level. This partnership with the Butterfield Bermuda Championship highlights our shared commitment to creating opportunities for juniors to chase their dreams.”
The Rolex AJGA Rankings is the proprietary system created to identify and rank the top junior players who have competed in the premier junior golf tournaments in the United States. Several notable Rolex Player of the Year winners include Tiger Woods, Phil Mickelson, Scottie Scheffler and Jordan Spieth, among others.
The 2025 Butterfield Bermuda Championship, part of the FedExCup Fall, is scheduled for November 13-16 at Port Royal Golf Course in Southampton, Bermuda. The event promises to deliver a thrilling showcase of talent, with Brown joining a field of established professionals and rising stars.
