Liverpool are accustomed to singing about walking through the storm. They had to walk through the fog here, losing their way when Leicester City took the lead. But they ended up striding seven points clear at the Premier League summit, with the bonus that they retain a game in hand on second-placed Chelsea. Comebacks were supposed to be Jurgen Klopp’s forte. If Arne Slot has overseen more than he would ideally like, the latest was both required and executed. The reward was a 22nd win in 26 games under the Dutchman. In a division where so many others are consistently inconsistent, Liverpool stand out as the exception to the rule . It helps that they have a sizeable cast of match-winners. If Mohamed Salah tops the bill, he also completed victory, bending in a shot to get the goal that eluded him earlier when he drew a fine save and then hit the bar. Yet the game was decided by Cody Gakpo and Curtis Jones, a duo who began the season on the bench and who might not figure in Slot’s first-choice team. Gakpo pressed his case to do so, joining Salah and the rested Luis Diaz in double figures for the season with a superlative equaliser and ending his night with an assist as well. It had a particular cruelty for the beaten manager. Gakpo improved in his six months under Ruud van Nistelrooy at PSV Eindhoven. He repaid him by cancelling out Leicester’s advantage with a strike that condemned an influence on his career to a night in the relegation zone. Not that Gakpo’s goal, a stunning strike from 25 yards, seemed to come from Van Nistelrooy’s repertoire: he scored famously few from outside the penalty area. But it inspired a turnaround that Liverpool had always threatened. Certainly they produced the right response when trailing, neither panicking nor being too passive when allowed plenty of possession. Sometimes pressure tells, and this was one such occasion. Leicester showed a doggedness to hold on to their advantage for as long as they did. Yet it felt unsurprising when Liverpool overcame them. Slot’s side have that habit, that momentum. Some of their recent matches may have been more eventful than the Dutchman would have liked. Liverpool have now conceded nine goals in their last four league games. Without Jamie Vardy, sitting it out with a minor injury, Leicester soon struck anyway. Jordan Ayew met Stephy Mavididi’s low cross, then spun, leaving Andy Robertson turning in the wrong direction, before beating Alisson at his near post. After Robertson’s red card against Fulham, it was another difficult start for the left-back. Having dropped into the bottom three for the first time all season, Leicester seemed set to extricate themselves, at least until the stroke of half-time. Liverpool were relentless. They had a surfeit of crosses and a host of corners. The Premier League debutant Jakub Stolarczyk, in for the dropped Danny Ward, made a point-blank save from Salah after three minutes. The woodwork was overworked. Robertson looped a header against the upright from Trent Alexander-Arnold’s cross. Salah curled a shot onto the bar. Then Gakpo levelled following a pass from Mac Allister. The World Cup winner had two assists in a few minutes, either side of half-time, following an overlapping run when his cutback was met by Jones; as with the Argentinian’s strike at Tottenham on Sunday, Liverpool were rewarded for getting two of their central midfielders in the box at the same time. The scoring was completed when Gakpo swept the ball to the right flank and Salah bent in a shot for his 19th goal of the season and his 12th in his last 10 league games. Liverpool could have added further goals earlier but for the vagaries of Darwin Nunez’s touch on an evening that, even by his standards, contained a certain erraticism. Nunez set up a Leicester counter-attack, spooned a shot over the bar. When Salah provided him with a fine chance, he shot straight at Stolarczyk. The Uruguayan was offside when Gakpo had a second goal disallowed, though it was drilled in emphatically. And in his quest for a third goal, Slot brought on Dominik Szoboszlai, who then got the booking that will bring a ban. He will not play at West Ham on Sunday but Liverpool will go there with a commanding lead in the title race. Leicester, meanwhile, will host Manchester City while in trouble. They had allowed their opponents 82 shots in Van Nistelrooy’s first four games and brought up an unwanted century in the fifth. In their native Netherlands, he contested the title with Slot. Now it may be destined for Liverpool and Leicester have to ensure they are in the same division as them next season.CHOCOLATE lovers have been left stunned as Superdrug offers boxes of Celebrations and Ferrero Rocher for just £1.

The government is defending its economic record after a report found the forecast budget deficit is expected to be worse than predicted, with Australians experiencing the longest household recession since the 1970s. Analysts for Deloitte Access Economics estimate this year’s budget deficit, which Chalmers forecast in May to reach $28.3 billion, will be closer to $33.5 billion as commodity prices eat into company tax collections and inflation pushes up the costs of government services. Speaking on Nine’s Today , Social Services Minister Amanda Rishworth said the government had inherited a “pretty big economic mess” from the Coalition, pointing to the reduction in inflation under Labor. Host Karl Stefanovic interrupted to say that the government has had time to improve the economy, to which Rishworth said they had utilised that time to fight inflation, grow wages and tackle the cost of living. “The alternative would have been if Peter Dutton was the prime minister. He’s opposed every single one of the [cost of living] measures and we would be in a real recession right now if he had got his way on so many policy issues.” Nationals Senator Briget McKenzie said it was the government’s fault that Australians feel poorer. “Australians are feeling poorer because they actually are poorer under Albanese. And it is this government’s fault that the economic situation is as it is,” McKenzie said. “It’s been warned and warned about government spending. That’s why in comparable nations our numbers are in the toilet comparatively. That that is just not right.” Click here for more details on the Deloitte Access Economics report, and the treasurer’s response. The bill to ban social media for children under 16 will be a “test” for Peter Dutton’s leadership, says Social Services Minister Amanda Rishworth. Speaking on Nine’s Today , Rishworth said there was bipartisan support for the bill, but that Dutton was losing control of his caucus. “Just a couple of weeks ago, Peter Dutton said he would facilitate this important piece of legislation and support the government. And now we see our senators defying him,” she said. “So this is a test for Peter Dutton and his leadership.” Also on Today was Nationals senator Bridget McKenzie, who said there were still concerns about digital ID laws and privacy. “Given the [is] censoring the Australian public bill from the Senate this week, we want to make sure we get strong, robust laws that don’t damage privacy and make compulsory Australians having to have digital IDs,” she said. “We do want strong, robust laws to protect kids under 16 on social media platforms. We’ve been out of the blocks before the government on this. We need to get the legislation right so it does actually get the outcomes we want. And we need to make sure that those protections exist in the legislation.” Read more about the debate within the Coalition on the ban here. An alternative proposal to the social media ban on children under 16 has been put forth by independent MP Zoe Daniel, who claims a ban doesn’t tackle the underlying issues that harm young people. Daniel’s bill would implement an overarching statutory duty of care on social media companies, with the goal being “safety by design”. “What you need to make that work is the companies to assess the risks, mitigate the risks, and be transparent about how they’re doing that,” Daniel told ABC News Breakfast. “The bill also has a provision to enable users to have control over the algorithm as exists overseas, particularly in the EU, enabling users to either reset or turn off their algorithm if they wish.” Independent MP Zoe Daniel. Credit: Alex Ellinghausen Daniel says her work in the space began with tackling eating disorders, with a working group revealing the damage the algorithm was doing to sufferers by delivering them more content about eating disorders. She says the same trend is seen in a range of public health issues including gambling. “The problem with the algorithm is that in many ways, it compounds negative behaviour, and particularly for young people - that can send young people into a real spiral,” Daniel said. “The legislation is based on international best practice, so in effect, it cherry-picks the best of legislation that is already in place in Europe and in the UK.” The Goldstein MP said the government have been responsive to her proposal, and flagged they would consider duty of care eventually. But Daniel hopes the government will consider her bill now. “I understand why they want to do [the under 16s social media ban] because it is a lever to pull now and it makes parents feel better, but it actually makes zero difference to what is happening on the platforms. It doesn’t manage the algorithm or force the platforms to do anything about what is happening in their environment.” Social media companies, including Snapchat, TikTok, and Meta, have taken aim at the “rushed” consultation process for the ban on children under 16. Communications Minister Michelle Rowland introduced the world-leading reform to parliament last Thursday, which she said would make the online environment better for young people. The consultation period for groups and individuals to make submissions closed on Friday. A Senate committee held a one-day hearing on Monday and is due to report back on Tuesday. In submissions to the inquiry, several groups, including social media companies, pointed to the short notice period. Snap Inc. wrote that “the extremely compressed timeline” had allowed stakeholders little more than 24 hours to provide a response, which “severely” constrained thorough analysis and informed debate. X, formerly Twitter, also criticised the “unreasonably short time frame of one day”, writing that it has “serious concerns as to the lawfulness of the bill”. Meta, which owns Facebook, wrote that there had been “minimal consultation or engagement” and urged the government to wait for the results of the age assurance trial before progressing with the legislation. TikTok said that despite the “time-limited review”, there was a range of “serious, unresolved problems” that the government must clarify to ensure there wouldn’t be unintended consequences for all Australians. AAP Labor has gained a crucial concession from the Greens after a year of dispute over a $5.5 billion plan to help young Australians buy their first homes, securing the policy with a stunning back down from the minor party. The decisions late on Monday delivered a big victory to the federal government in the final week of parliament for the year, but other bills are on the brink of defeat after Senate crossbenchers blasted Labor for trying to rush through changes on the environment, political donations and other issues. Read more about the status of the bills on the brink, including the social media ban, political donation changes and environmental reforms, here. Good morning and welcome to the national news blog.
