Today’s business and public-affairs headlines span consumer advice, media power, and questions of accountability. On the consumer front, nutrition experts are urging shoppers to ignore bread branding and focus instead on fibre content, with sourdough often presented as a better choice when it delivers real nutritional value.

In India, youth anger over education controversies spilled onto the streets at Delhi’s Jantar Mantar, where Cockroach Janta Party founder Abhijeet Dipke called the protest “just a trailer” for more action to come, while West Bengal ordered a statewide survey of madrasas with a report due next month. And in Somerset, a rare Roman ring found by two metal detectorists has turned a muddy field into a potential £75,000 windfall.
