The Ashes are under way, and England have got off to a flying start. If you weren't one of the lucky people who secured the 150 tickets made available this morning, tune in to Sean Ingle's ball-by-ball commentary here and keep track of the wickets with our desktop scorecard.

We are publishing obituaries of the 52 people who lost their lives when suicide bombers attacked London two weeks ago. Please do read their stories on this page, where you can also find out how to contact us if you would like us to publish your own tribute to someone who died. This afternoon Tony Blair will meet intelligence and police chiefs to discuss measures to prevent a repeat of the attacks, and there's a memorial service at the British Medical Association building on Tavistock Square, near where the bus bomb exploded.

In other news, BNP leader Nick Griffin is in court on a race hate charge, two people jailed for shaking their babies to death have had their convictions overturned and details of the first major review of the law on murder for more than 50 years are being set out.
