Starmer star power, LCBO strike, copper theft

Your World Tonight

It was a massive victory for Keir Starmer and British Labour in the UK election. Now the new Prime Minister has to get down to work and deliver on his promises after defeating Rishi Sunak and the Conservatives. And: More than 9,000 workers at Ontario’s provincial liquor retailer are on strike. It's the first walkout in LCBO's history. The union is fighting against the government's plan to allow grocery and convenience stores to sell ready-to-drink cocktails. But some in the industry say expanding privatisation is the right move. Plus: Thieves stealing copper is a major problem for telecom companies, but it’s also affecting customers. When copper phone lines are ripped out, thousands of people lose connectivity, and even access to emergency services. Some are calling for tougher laws and harsher penalties.
