Thank you for joining us in the Politics Hub for another busy day in Westminster.
Here's what happened:
- Peers in the House of Lords inflicted another four defeats on the government over the legislation to rescue the embattled Rwanda scheme, sending the bill back to the Commons as the parliamentary "ping-pong" continues;
- Rishi Sunak's flagship bill to ban young people from ever being able to smoke passed its first major hurdle in the Commons - but not without a significant number of Tories opposing it;
- Just 178 Conservative MPs voted in favour of the bill out of 347 - barely half of the parliamentary party - and six ministers, including Business Secretary Kemi Badenoch, voted against it;
- A local mayor sent police to shut down the National Conservatism Conference where Reform UK's honorary president Nigel Farage and former home secretary Suella Braverman were speaking - but the conference continued, and the attempt to stop was condemned as "unconstitutional" by Belgium's president;
- Rishi Sunak finally spoke by phone with Israeli PM Benjamin Netanyahu following Iran's attack on Saturday, telling him this is a moment for "calm heads to prevail";
- The government unveiled plans to make the creation of sexually explicit deepfake images a criminal offence.
