Evening briefing Friday 20th June

0:00Therapy's biggest impact doesn't show up in some dramatic breakthrough. It shows up in the smallest moments. You bite your tongue instead of escalating. You put your phone down instead of firing off that text. You say what you actually mean instead of what would hurt someone else the most. Nobody applauds those moments, but they quietly change your life. That's what growing feels like, and that's exactly what Grow Therapy is here for. Grow is therapy that works, covered by insurance. Sessions average$21 with insurance and some pay as little as$0 depending on their plan. There are no subscriptions, no long-term commitments.

0:37You just pay per session. Grow connects you with thousands of high-quality licensed therapists across the U.S. offering both virtual and in-person sessions nights and weekends. You can search by what matters, like insurance, specialty, identity, or availability. And you can book a therapy session in minutes and begin in as little as two days, not the national 48-day average. See if you could pay as little as$0 for therapy in seconds at growtherapy.com slash ACAST. That's growtherapy.com slash ACAST. growtherapy.com slash ACAST. Availability and coverage vary by state and insurance plan.

1:24This is the Times Evening Briefing for Friday 20th June. A majority of 23 MPs have backed legalising assisted dying after an historic vote in the House of Commons. It means England and Wales are a step closer to allowing adults with fewer than six months to live to get help to die after being signed off by an expert panel. The Prime Minister was among those voting for the bill, while the Labour MP, Chi Onurwa, voted against. Ahead of the vote, she warned, it changes the relationship between state and citizen. We have not even begun to interrogate all the social implications of this change. All of human life is here.

2:03It will change the ethos of the NHS. The vote came after three hours of sometimes emotional debate in the Commons. Lord Hayward, Robert Hayward, told Times Radio he's pleased with the result and looks forward to the bill coming to the Lords. The House of Lords is filled with large numbers of both doctors and specialist lawyers. They will do their role, which is to review and revise. They might make some changes. It was important that the MPs gave the bill a lot of careful consideration and then have sent it up to the Lords to give further consideration. The group that claimed responsibility for a vandalism incident at RAF Bryce Norton is to be banned.

2:44Times Radio understands the Home Secretary will prescribe Palestine action as a terrorist organisation. It comes as counter-terror police investigate the security breach where two protesters broke into the RAF base and damaged military aircraft. The UN Secretary General is warning that the Israel-Iran conflict could ignite a fire no one can control, calling for all sides to give peace a chance. Antonio Guterres was speaking at a Security Council meeting as David Lammy and other European foreign ministers met with their Iranian counterpart to discuss Tehran's nuclear program. David Satterfield was an assistant secretary of state in Donald Trump's first term.

3:21He told Times Radio Trump wants to move on. If the Iranians do not, within the rough time frame that the president has laid out, indicate seriousness of commitment to the elimination of the enrichment program, Then I believe the chances of a strike, which lies that decision entirely with President Trump, I believe the chances increase dramatically. Meanwhile, foreign office staff have been temporarily withdrawn from Iran due to what a spokesperson calls the current security situation. Charter flights are also being prepared out of Tel Aviv, with British nationals in Israel told to make themselves known to the UK government via a portal.

4:01The superyacht that belonged to tech tycoon Mike Lynch has been raised from the seabed in Sicily. Mr Lynch and six other people died when the£40m vessel sunk last August. A Times correspondent at the scene says the Bayesian's hull was coated with algae as a sea crane continues the salvage effort. In sport, British tennis No. 1 Jack Draper is through to the semifinals at the Queen's Club Championship. He worked hard to beat the USA's Brendan Nakashima in three sets.
