In response to the outbreak of a rapidly spreading COVID-19 virus mutation, over 40 countries have banned flights from the UK. At the same time, the UK government has shut down most of London and South East England in a new round of lockdowns. Over the weekend, rank-and-file Londoners flocked to train and bus stations to get out of town while they still could. But according to Business Insider, members of the monied class didn't have to battle for space on an overhead storage bin. Instead, British high society went to London's private jet terminals to catch charter flights out of the country.

The UK Conservative Party's "1922 Committee" announces the results from the latest round of voting in the party leadership contest. Rishi Sunak, former Finance Minister, is still in the lead with 118 votes. The fight for second place is tightening between former defence minister Penny Mordaunt (second place with 92 votes) and Foreign Secretary Liz Truss (third place with 86 votes). Longshot candidate Kemi Badenoch trailed on 59 votes and was therefore eliminated from the contest. SOUNDBITE
