13.06.2026The day of the Makerfield by-election and Trump's Iran deal claim

The day was shaped by two competing stories: the Makerfield by-election and Trump's claim of an imminent Iran deal. From morning, the Independent repeatedly led with Restore Britain set to sweep the seat, while the Daily Mail published an exclusive linking the party to neo-Nazis. The Labour leadership crisis continued as a backdrop, with Miliband tipped as Burnham's chancellor and Starmer bracing for resignations. By evening, Trump's assertion that a US-Iran peace deal would be signed Sunday dominated the BBC, Guardian, and Evening Standard, though Tehran cast doubt on the timing. The Strait of Hormuz reopening was tied to the deal. Trooping the Colour provided royal pageantry throughout the day, with Prince Louis stealing the balcony show, but it did not displace the political and diplomatic leads.
