The Supreme Court has confirmed William Ruto's victory against Raila Odinga

Kenya's Supreme Court in Kenya has upheld the victory of William Ruto in last month's close-run presidential poll, dismissing several petitions seeking to annul the result of the 9 August election. Our correspondent joins us from the town of Eldorat, the stronghold of Mr Ruto.

Britain's next Prime Minister, Liz Truss, says she has a bold plan to deal with the crises that await her when she takes office. The programme comes live from Westminster, next to the Houses of Parliament in London, with reaction from voters and a discussion with European journalists about what lies ahead for Liss Truss.

In Canada, police have launched a huge manhunt for two men suspected of stabbing at least ten people to death in a rampage that has shocked the nation. We speak to our correspondent there.
