Metal barriers that had surrounded a pro-government encampment are piled up in a park opposite the Serbian Parliament in Belgrade on October 26, 2026, after crowds celebrating election results entered the site the previous night and dismantled tents that had occupied the area for months, setting them alight along with a number of cars. Serbia's student-led movement declared victory in parliamentary elections on October 25 ending 14 years in power for Aleksandar Vucic's right-wing populist party. The victory in the snap vote comes after nearly two years of anti-government protests sparked by the 2024 collapse of a canopy at Novi Sad railway station that killed 16 people. The disaster has been widely blamed on corruption and triggered some of Serbia's largest protests since the fall of strongman Slobodan Milosevic in 2000. (Photo by Andrej ISAKOVIC / AFP)

(FILES) Britain's Prime Minister Andy Burnham (L) congratulates Britain's Chancellor of the Exchequer John Healey after he delivered a speech on the second day of the annual Labour Party conference in Liverpool, north-west England, on September 28, 2026. British Prime Minister Andy Burnham's new government unveils its first budget on October 28, 2026, testing a commitment to ease the cost of living and ramp up defence spending with little financial room for manoeuvre. It could prove to be a tall order for Finance Minister John Healey as rising inflation and borrowing costs -- largely a consequence of the US-Iran war -- increase the government's debt pile and heap pressure on businesses and individuals.
