Britain enjoys 84F sun or above for the TWELFTH day in a row today

Scorched Britain could record its hottest day of the year so far today as temperatures soar past 90F (32C). The country is in the midst of its longest heatwave since 1976, with today set to be the 12th day in a row that temperatures have hit at least 84.4F (29.1C) somewhere - and there are no signs of any let up. If the mercury gets above 91.4F (33C) - mostly likely in the South East of England today - it will break the current record for the warmest day of 2018, which was set on June 28 at Portmadog in North Wales. It comes after a West Berkshire Council bin lorry got stuck in Newbury yesterday after the road melted beneath it (left).

May dares Brexiteers to quit at crunch Chequers showdown

As the high-stakes summit at Chequers kicked off, the PM's aides made clear ministers who resign will immediately be stripped of their official car - forcing them to call a taxi or walk miles to the nearest train station. But defiant Tory MPs responded to the unprecedented sabre-rattling by offering to drive up to the country pile and collect rebels. The bitter clashes came as Mrs May mounts an all-out bid to force through her 'third way' trade plan despite a massive onslaught from more than half-a-dozen senior ministers led by Boris Johnson . They are incandescent that the blueprint would commit to aligning with EU regulations, obeying European judges, and effectively giving up on a comprehensive trade deal with the US. But Mrs May is said to be determined to face them down - and No10 has drawn up a 'full reshuffle plan' in case anyone resigns. Aides have warned that a 'talented new generation' of Tories are waiting in the wings to take prized spots at the top table. David Cameron is said to have intervened to shore up Mrs May by urging Mr Johnson not to resign at a private heart-to-heart last night.

Police suspect couple poisoned by Novichok may have taken a ‘delivery device’ home

Firefighters with breathing apparatus today entered the house where a couple poisoned by Novichok began foaming from the mouth and collapsed. Dawn Sturgess, 44, (above right) and boyfriend Charles Rowley, 45, (above left) are believed to have fallen ill after finding a vial, syringe or tub used to carry the nerve agent in Queen Elizabeth Gardens in the city (bottom right) on Friday. This vital clue means police and the secret services finally know where the assassins dumped their weapon - and can use CCTV to track them. The hit squad sent to murder Sergei Skripal probably sprayed Novichok on his front door before trailing him and his daughter Yulia through Salisbury until they saw them collapse on a park bench on March 4. Believing their work was done they appear to have dumped their weapon in a park before fleeing Salisbury and probably the country. But Dawn and Charlie stumbled across it four months later and took it home (top right) after stopping in five shops (main picture) - within 24 hours both were frothing at the mouth and had collapsed. It came as police admitted they cannot guarantee others won't be poisoned and the authorities warned hundreds of people to urgently wash their clothes and wipe down items such as jewellery and phones.

Russian peasants sell human heads during 1920s famine

During the civil war that broke out after the revolution, Russia was gripped by a famine that began in spring 1921 and lasted all of 1922. The famine was caused by the policies of Lenin and the Bolsheviks, who instructed food to be seized from the poor. They believed peasants were actively trying to undermine the war effort and by taking their food away it reduced their strength. Lenin declared 'let the peasants starve', the result of which was to force them to resort to trading human flesh, including heads, on the black market (left). The effects of starvation can been seen in the emaciated bodies of these children in Samara (right). Aid workers from Europe and the United States eventually arrived and one said 'the famine is so acute' one woman 'was found eating the corpse of her daughter'.
