Quick Glance: Taylor Swift reveals 'secret' double album in '2am surprise'

Taylor Swift has revealed her latest release is a 'secret double album' with 15 more tracks than expected. In a 2am surprise, the 34-year-old announced on social media that The Tortured Poets Department: The Anthology includes a second instalment.

The album is the superstar's 11th studio album and features a bumper 31 songs over two hours long. Swift announced details of the record when she won the Grammy Award for Best Pop Vocal Album for Midnights.

The 15th track, The Alchemy, seems to reference her relationship with the Kansas City Chiefs star and includes American football terms. So Long, London is number five in the tracklist and offers new insight into her split with actor Alwyn after six years together.

The title of the album may refer to a WhatsApp group Alwyn previously set up with fellow actors Andrew Scott and Paul Mescal, called The Tortured Man Club.

Quick Glance: Rising Real Earnings Growth Raises Concerns at Bank of England

An unexpectedly weaker decline in the pace of wage increases has led to real earnings growth reaching its highest level in nearly two and a half years when considering inflation, according to the latest official data.

Recent official figures indicate that average regular pay without bonuses was at 6% in the three months to February compared to the previous year.

The broader ONS statistics revealed an increase in the UK's unemployment rate from 3.9% to 4.2%, with caution due to ongoing efforts to enhance the reliability of employment data.

The forthcoming inflation data expected on Wednesday is likely to demonstrate further progress towards the Bank's objectives and the potential for a decrease from the current 5.25% interest rate.

Quick Glance: Rory McIlroy Denies LIV Golf Rumors: Commits to PGA Tour

Quick Glance: Apple Loses $1 Billion British Lawsuit Over App Store Fees

Apple lost a bid on Friday to dismiss a mass lawsuit valued at just under $1 billion, brought in London on behalf of over 1,500 app developers regarding the App Store fees.

The lawsuit, worth up to 785 million pounds ($979 million) and one of several faced by the U.S. tech giant in the United Kingdom, alleges that Apple unfairly charged third-party developers commissions of up to 30% on app purchases or other content.

Judge Andrew Lenon stated in a written ruling that Ennis' lawyers had a realistic prospect of establishing that 'Apple's overcharging of commission to app developers based in the UK in relation to commerce transacted on non-UK storefronts did amount to conduct implemented in the UK'.
