Daily Express – Divers Find Bodies Of Tycoon And His Daughter
The Daily Express reports British tycoon Mike Lynch was among the bodies found in the sunken yacht by divers – though they have not yet been named officially by Italian authorities.
Elsewhere, Jeremy Hunt, Rachel Reeves’s predecessor as chancellor, says in a Daily Express headline that there is “simply no reason or excuse to raise taxes”.
Bayesian yacht sinking latest: Mike Lynch among the dead as fifth body recovered
A fifth body has been recovered as the search has resumed for the sixth person missing after a superyacht sank in a storm off the coast of Sicily.
Six people, including tech tycoon Mike Lynch, were unaccounted for after the £30million vessel, Bayesian, sank in a violent storm at about 5am on Monday (August 19). Five bodies have now been recovered from inside the yacht.
Salvatore Cocina, the head of Sicily’s civil protection agency, earlier confirmed that of the five bodies found on Wednesday (August 21), only four were recovered, with the whereabouts of the missing sixth person still unknown.
Rachel Reeves’ economic ‘con’ that she will use to hike your taxes exposed by Jeremy Hunt
Rachel Reeves has “no reason or excuse to raise taxes” and is presiding over an “economic con”, Jeremy Hunt has declared.
The Chancellor is set to hike inheritance tax and capital gains tax in the October Budget after fuelling Government borrowing costs with her public sector pay bonanza.
Ms Reeves is expected to ignore better-than-expected growth figures, improving retail sales and low inflation and inflict more pain on cash-strapped families.
Shadow chancellor Jeremy Hunt told the Daily Express: “Rachel Reeves is still committed to her economic con, regardless of the evidence.
“Just last week, we saw two sets of positive economic news – with inflation remaining low and GDP figures confirming that our strong and resilient economy continues to grow – with some economists even describing it as ‘gangbusters’.
