Heavy fog across the UK forced cancellations of 100 more flights from London's Heathrow Airport on Tuesday.

The Met Office has issued a yellow "be aware" fog weather warning for most of southern England, the BBC reported.

A Heathrow spokesman said "persistent freezing fog" had reduced visibility at the airport and warned passengers to check their flight status.

On Monday, Heathrow, London City, Gatwick and Southampton airports also had cancellations.

The crisis engulfing Britain’s Labour government is no longer merely about the future of the prime minister.

Britain's ruling Labour Party suffered major losses in local elections, while Reform UK made significant gains, according to final results released.

The recent vote in the British House of Commons was never just about whether Prime Minister Keir Starmer would face an inquiry.
