By Eniola Amadu Swimming and wild camping should become legal rights for people across the English countryside, Labour MPs have said, as part of a push to expand public access to nature. The call is set out in a new report from the all-party parliamentary group for outdoor recreation and access to nature, led by Labour MPs Andy McNae, Phil Brickell and Polly Billington.

Nigeria’s Tobi Amusan made a confident start to her campaign at the World Athletics Championships in Tokyo, easing through her 100m hurdles heat on Sunday. The world record holder clocked 12.53 seconds to finish first, comfortably ahead of Devynne Charlton of the Bahamas and Italy’s Elena Carraro, who placed second and third. Despite recording only the fifth-best reaction to the starter’s gun, Amusan quickly took control of the race and never looked back, underlining her status as one of the event’s biggest threats.
