Overnight the Palace rebuttal to Earl Spencer's Diana book carried over from the previous evening, with editors leading on its dismissal of his claim that Charles said days after her death she would soon be forgotten as grief clouding reason. Reports added that Spencer had not warned Harry and William and that a former aide said Charles barred criticism of Diana.
By midday focus shifted briefly to Strasbourg, where Mark Carney welcomed EU talk of associate membership for Canada and accused Trump of weaponising trade after Trump called the proposal laughable and threatened tariffs. The aftermath of the Noah Woods search continued, with tributes in the Suffolk village and a tribute from his father after a body was found.
Late coverage returned to Spencer with a second claim that Charles sounded elated like a lottery winner on the night Diana died.
