Will Rupert Murdoch's $15bn Succession style court battle with three of his own children

He may have dubbed his plan 'Project Harmony'. But to anyone observing the high-noon showdown about to unfold between Rupert Murdoch and his four oldest children in a dusty court in Nevada, the nickname looks optimistic. The 93-year-old tycoon and his offspring are set to square off in a secret legal battle in the desert city of Reno. At the heart of the case is one question - whether or not Murdoch can successfully change the terms of a confidential family trust in order to hand control of his sprawling media empire to his oldest son Lachlan, 53, whose Right-wing politics closely mirror his father's. Murdoch, in his twilight years, is mounting perhaps his most shocking takeover yet: a move that some have suggested would make Logan Roy - the foul-mouthed, domineering mogul of TV drama Succession - blush. Following an initial 'status conference' last night, the full hearing will begin next Monday.

Tears and fury in the Commons as Keir Starmer's winter fuel payment axe is PASSED with only ONE Labour vote against - as dozens of MPs stay away amid threats of punishment

Some 10million pensioners will not get the winter fuel allowance - worth up to £300 - this year after MPs signed off the controversial measure by 348 to 228. Just one Labour MP, veteran left-winger Jon Trickett, supported a Tory motion to block the move, and now faces having the whip suspended. But the margin hid painful soul-searching, with the Government's majority falling to 120 from its theoretical strength of 167. There were 53 abstentions, with MPs citing dentist appointments and personal crises to skip from the vote, and claims that one was seen in tears in the voting lobbies. Labour sources insisted that just a dozen dodged the vote without having been given approval. There had been threats of punishment, and seven MPs were already out in the cold following a previous protest over the two-child benefit cap.

EXCLUSIVEEurope's fury as Germany tightens its borders: Neighbours say they WON'T take back migrants and declare Berlin's plan to stem tide and Islamist terror a threat to free movement

Interior minister Nancy Faeser, of Chancellor Olaf Scholz 's struggling Social Democrat party (SPD), yesterday announced that harsher restrictions would be implemented across Germany's 2,300-mile land border from September 16. The scheme, which will last six months before review and enable authorities to reject more migrants directly at German borders, represents a significant extension of controls introduced last year on Germany's borders with Poland, the Czech Republic and Switzerland. Now, borders with Denmark, the Netherlands, Belgium, Luxembourg, France and Austria will also be subject to the restrictions. Many European countries are supportive of more stringent EU-wide border restrictions to curb migration into the bloc. But they are less enthused by Germany's declaration it will start turning migrants back to neighbouring nations.
