Good morning. Britain will lead a European project to build a long-range missile capable of ending Nato’s reliance on US weapons, The Telegraph can reveal. The alliance is still reeling from Donald Trump’s decision not to deploy Tomahawk cruise missiles on the continent. Now it has decided to take matters into its own hands, as Joe Barnes, our Diplomatic Editor, reports. Elsewhere, Gianni Infantino is facing a furious backlash and calls to resign after Fifa overturned US striker Folarin Balogun’s World Cup suspension following the lobbying of Donald Trump. Not that the US president’s intervention was worthwhile – his team limped out of the competition last night after a 4-1 loss to Belgium. Chris Evans, Editor P.S.

Subscribe now   Britain to lead European drive to build long-range Nato missiles HMS Prince of Wales pictured during Nato operation Neptune Strike Joe Barnes Diplomatic Editor, in Ankara   Britain will lead a new European project to build a long-range missile capable of ending Nato’s reliance on US weapons. Diplomats and officials told The Telegraph that the “Deep Precision Strike Coalition” would be unveiled as one of the first steps towards the creation of a European pillar of the military alliance. Sir Keir Starmer will sign a document committing to the scheme, alongside his German, Dutch and French counterparts. Continental allies are working to reduce their dependence on the US when it comes to defending against the threat posed by Russia. Europe is still reeling from the Trump administration’s decision to cancel Biden-era plans to deploy its Tomahawk cruise missiles to the Continent. Other areas of co-operation will include air defence and satellite intelligence. Tuesday’s Nato summit, held in Ankara, Turkey’s capital city, is the moment Europe needs to come to terms with America’s waning support, and figure out its plans to stop it ending in disaster.

In the shadow of an unprecedented assault on sporting integrity, the United States departed their own World Cup with a whimper, beaten 4-1 by Belgium as Donald Trump’s efforts to rescind Florian Balogun’s red card backfired horribly. “Overturn this,” the Belgian federation crowed, having produced the ultimate response to the US president’s attempt to manipulate the result. There was sorrow in Seattle, and all across the land, as the hosts’ three-and-a-half-week magic-carpet ride at this tournament reached an undignified end. While vast outpourings of joy greeted their victories over Paraguay, Australia and Turkey, the spirit of goodwill was profoundly soured by the brazen interference from the Trump White House, which leant on Fifa president Gianni Infantino to have Balogun reinstated for the last-16 duel with Belgium. The move has sparked global outrage, with Jurgen Klopp declaring: “It’s our game, not theirs.” For Mauricio Pochettino, the US manager, it marks a bitter end to a campaign that he hoped would be remembered purely for his team’s achievements on the pitch.

He will also, by extraordinary coincidence, appear in public for the first outing of his five-day trip to Britain which has caused so much mayhem. As anyone following this ongoing royal saga will now know, Prince Harry will not be staying at Buckingham Palace and will not be bringing his wife and children to London (although they may, all being well, join him elsewhere later in the week).

Some are absolute keepers’ Writer Tomé Morrissy-Swan serving hake with rumbledethumps and parsley sauce Tomé Morrissy-Swan   I love proper British food but, like many of us, my regular cooking repertoire has become increasingly cosmopolitan. There’s no denying the appeal of global cuisines, but I’ve recently had a hankering for traditional British grub, not least after reporting on a number of restaurants and bakeries bringing back old-school dishes. So I decided to spend a couple of weeks cooking recipes whose origins are closer to home. With roast dinners still a regular fixture in my household, and having grown up on the likes of toad-in-the-hole and shepherd’s pie, I wanted to discover dishes I’d never cooked. Taking inspiration from the cookbooks on my shelf, from Jane Grigson to Jamie Oliver, I set about making all manner of meals – some long forgotten, some mostly confined to a particular region, others more commonly found in restaurants or greasy spoons, but rarely in homes. After a diet of suet puddings and tripe and onions, here’s how I fared. Continue reading ➤   Your say Sent packing Every weekday, Orlando Bird, our loyal reader correspondent, shares an off-piste topic that has brought out the best of your opinions and stories. Orlando writes... I like the idea of being a light packer, breezing off insouciantly to far-flung corners of the world, but the truth is that I’m more of a forgetful one. If my suitcase acquits itself particularly well during the baggage weigh-in, it’s probably because I’ve somehow neglected to include, say, a single pair of trousers. Hello, airport clothes shop, my old friend.   In response to Greg Dickinson and Tamara Abraham’s article, we’ve heard from readers who really have mastered the art. Alan Green explained: “I left Britain a month ago and will return next week. I spent a week in Boston, then just over two in Nova Scotia, and am in Bermuda at present. So far, I have worn only two pairs of shorts and two T-shirts. One of each is washed every evening and dries overnight. I don’t wear socks, and travel in one pair of Skechers shoes. I have a thin zip-up jacket, and do confess to buying a thin, long-sleeved top in Prince Edward Island when the temperature dropped to 7C.”   Julia Evans added: “Your feature on packing was instructive, but I think the writers still included too much. My husband and I flew to Denver, Colorado, for a wedding, then travelled on to Boston. After that we hopped on the ferry to Nantucket for a friend’s birthday. We took only a backpack each, wearing our wedding jackets and jeans to travel in. All you need is cashmere, linen and a swimming outfit, which doubles as spare underwear.”   It’s not just North American excursions that inspire such minimalism. Neil Sewell-Rutter recalled: “My lifetime best in the noble art of packing light was a three-week stint in Greece during which I had only a carry-on suitcase and a Panama hat. I wore a pair of all-purpose boots so as not to have to pack extra shoes. At the end of my trip, the doorman of an expensive hotel in Thessaloniki treated me with the mixture of compassion and contempt that such bohemian footwear rightly deserves.” Do you travel light, or do you fall into the “just in case” school of packing?

Good morning. England produced one of their greatest-ever World Cup performances last night. With a thrilling display of grit and determination, they held on to beat Mexico 3-2 in the high-altitude Azteca Stadium after having a player sent off in the 54th minute. Now a quarter-final in Miami awaits. Oliver Brown, our Chief Sports Writer, reports on the national team’s best game since 1966. Elsewhere, the Duke of Sussex will return to Britain this week, alone, after pulling his family out of the trip at the last minute over security fears. At times he will be only around 25 miles from his brother, Prince William. Yet there remains no prospect of the two princes meeting each other, as Hannah Furness, our Royal Editor, explains.

Subscribe now   World cup diary England produce greatest World Cup victory since 1966 Oliver Brown Chief Sports Writer at the Azteca Stadium, Mexico City   It was an occasion to stir the blood, burn the lungs, but ultimately lift the soul. With their most extraordinary World Cup display since 1966, England prevailed in a game for the ages, vanquishing co-hosts Mexico both through the brilliance of Jude Bellingham and a desperate late defensive effort with 10 men that entered the realm of the heroic. So much for the drumbeat of doom about the altitude, the ferocious hostility, and the firecracker-brandishing fans who had tried to keep them up all night. Thomas Tuchel’s team absorbed it all and converted it into rocket fuel, propelling themselves to produce a victory that will be remembered for a lifetime. So many times here in the cauldron of the Azteca Stadium, you feared the worst. Even after Bellingham’s two brilliantly taken first-half goals promised to put the outcome beyond doubt, there was a catalogue of chaos, with Julian Quinones’ strike sparking almost a Krakatoan eruption in the stands and Jarell Quansah’s red card for a dangerously high tackle sparking concerns about a collapse. England raced into the lead with two goals from Bellingham Yet England summoned their resolve as never before, refusing to panic when Raul Jimenez’s penalty roused the hosts to attack in wave after wave. As 6ft 8in Dan Burn was hurled into the fray to clear everything in his orbit, this team decided there would be no way through. They exemplified every quality that England sides have so conspicuously lacked on the greatest stage in football, channelling every last drop of resilience and self-belief to deliver for each other and for the country. Against all expectations, they are through to a quarter-final against Norway in Miami on Saturday. Truly, if this result does not galvanise national pride, nothing will.

Read the full report here ➤   Why Prince William won’t meet Harry The Duke of Sussex is returning to Britain for a series of engagements this week Hannah Furness Royal Editor   It wasn’t so long ago that the prospect of Prince Harry coming to town would leave the same question on everyone’s lips: will he meet Prince William? This time, everyone seems to have forgotten to ask. The answer, it seems, is too obvious: no, the brothers will not meet. A few years ago, such a trip would have inspired incredulity and irritation from Palace insiders and aides. This time, one said, it is “eye-roll territory”. They hope fervently that the Sussexes will remember their agreement with Queen Elizabeth II for no “half-in, half-out” royalty: no official-looking “engagements” while making money out of their proximity to the Royal family on the side. As for this week? The Sussexes’ plans remain up in the air. The King, the Queen, and the Prince and Princess of Wales will be out and about with their official duties.

For an inside look at what inspires my weekly cartoons, you can sign up for my personal subscriber-exclusive newsletter here.   Your say Square eyes Every weekday, Orlando Bird, our loyal reader correspondent, shares an off-piste topic that has brought out the best of your opinions and stories. Orlando writes... Whenever I’m weighing up whether or not to devote a chunk of my life to a new TV series, I usually ask myself: “Is it going to be as good as The Sopranos?” The result is that I end up rewatching The Sopranos instead. I exaggerate only a little. Sure, there has been some enjoyable television in recent years – and I’ve always got time for a truly moronic Netflix thriller – but I am inclined to agree with Gareth Roberts that we are some way from the high watermark of the Noughties, a decade that also gave us everything from Breaking Bad to Peep Show. I do have a confession, though: I find The Wire very slightly overrated, and will now run for cover.   Many readers, by contrast, have singled it out for praise. N Phillips wrote: “We only recently watched all five seasons. It is a masterpiece. Many series get tired after a few seasons. Not this one.”   John Atkins added: “Without a doubt The Wire is one of the best series I’ve ever watched. It took a while to get into the language but was well worth it.”   For James Steel, meanwhile, “The Sopranos is the best ever. James Gandolfini really was a very special actor. Still sad he died so young.”   Joanna Gilou put in a word for “Mad Men, which was incredible. The creator worked for David Chase on The Sopranos and it showed. Unlike a lot of American stuff, it treated the audience as intelligent adults. I’m rewatching The Sopranos for the sixth time and Mad Men for the fourth. Yes, I know I need to get out more, but they are both mesmerising.”   A dissenting voice came from Russell Wright: “The Noughties were probably marginally better than now, but they were still awful compared with preceding decades. Consider British comedies such as The Likely Lads, Porridge, Rising Damp, The Fall and Rise of Reginald Perrin, Yes Minister, Monty Python, Only Fools and Horses... “For drama there was I, Claudius, Upstairs, Downstairs, Inspector Morse, War and Peace, The Duchess of Duke Street and To Serve Them All My Days. I could go on. Maybe it’s to do with what you are brought up with, but I don’t think so.” Which TV series comes top for you?
