Morning coverage centred on the 25th anniversary of 9/11, with ceremonies in New York, Trump's 'never, ever forget' address, and recollections of intelligence failures and toxic-dust deaths still killing one person a day. The MI5 chief's warning that Britain faces greater danger now than in 2001 gave the commemoration a domestic edge.
From early afternoon attention moved to Westminster, where MPs voted down the assisted dying bill at second attempt by 16 votes after an emotional debate. Opponents were relieved, supporters including Esther Rantzen called it tragic, and the Telegraph noted key Burnham allies abstained.
By evening politics returned, with reports Burnham delayed a North Sea drilling decision until after the Holborn by-election and Farage secured a record £36m donation.
