Matt Dathan joins Kathryn Ryan from the United Kingdom, where a suspected terrorist accused of working for a hostile state has escaped from one of Britain's oldest and most notorious prisons.

 Daniel Abed Khalife fled in dramatic style, by clinging to the bottom of a food delivery van.

Also making headlines is Birmingham - the second largest city - effectively declaring itself bankrupt, as well as a reshuffle for the Labour Party.
