Taylor Swift, Raye and Pet Shop Boys among the winners in Manchester at MTV Europe awards

Instead of the usual voice calling out Deansgate-Castlefield and St Peter's Square, passengers have been listening to Rita Ora warning: "Make sure you plan your journey - it's gonna be busy!"

The pop star was in Manchester yesterday to host the MTV Europe Music Awards (EMAs), one of the highlights of the global music calendar, at the city's Co-op Live arena.

Featuring performances from Shawn Mendes, Raye and the South African singer Tyla, this year was the first time the EMAs were held in Manchester - arguably England's music capital - having previously travelled to Glasgow, Liverpool, Belfast and Edinburgh, as well as three visits to London since they began in 1994.

Taylor Swift led the nominations, making an appearance in seven categories and coming away with four awards, including best artist and best video for Fortnight, her duet with Post Malone. She has become the first musician to win best artist three times, ahead of the two-time best artist winner Mendes, who picked up an award this year for best Canadian artist.

Plan to halt arms aid

Donald Trump's plan to tap the retired US Lieutenant General Keith Kellogg as US envoy to Ukraine and Russia has triggered renewed interest in a policy document he co-authored that proposes ending the war by withdrawing weapons from Ukraine if it does not enter peace talks - and giving even more weapons to Ukraine if Russia does not do the same.
