This year's 'Godzilla El Niño' is on track to be the biggest we've ever seen. It's predicted to trigger flooding and drought that could affect the price of shopping in the UK.

El Niño happens every few years when the Pacific Ocean warms up in a specific pattern near the equator. Trade winds weaken or even reverse and, as a result, warm water flows back east across the Pacific, taking the rain with it.

This can shut down monsoon rains in some regions while triggering unusually heavy rainfall and flooding in others. The knock on of this year's El Niño is likely to be one of the most dramatic ever, effecting nearly everything on it is something you eat, drink, or wear.

ITV News Science Correspondent Martin Stew explains what we can expect and how much it might cost you.

Nigel Farage will compete with a record 33 other candidates in the Clacton by-election, despite several political parties refusing to stand.

The Reform UK leader triggered the by-election in what he called a "people versus the establishment” contest, protesting against media and parliamentary scrutiny of his finances.

Labour, the Conservatives, the Liberal Democrats and the Green Party have all boycotted the by-election and said they will not be putting forward a candidate.

Wildfires burning in France and Spain, heatwaves hitting the whole of Europe, and "coolcations" on the rise.

For decades, Brits have travelled to Southern Europe to get away for the summer, but could climate change be about to change that forever?

Is the traditional European summer holiday as we know it a thing of the past?

In this explainer, we look at what is causing the wildfires this summer, the weather patterns causing record temperatures, and why some tourists are looking to the north in search of cooler climates.

Thousands of young people from India’s Gen Z have taken to the streets of New Delhi as part of the viral Cockroach Janta Party movement, clashing with police and demanding political change.

The party, which started as an online joke has rapidly grown into a nationwide campaign, and become a rare public challenge to Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s government, with many calling for Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan to resign.

In this video we’ll look at how India’s so-called “Cockroach” movement grew out of frustrations over alleged exam scandals, unemployment, and government accountability, and what the future might hold for its supporters.

Argentina v England is one of the bitterest rivalries in football - and the two sides are preparing to meet in a World Cup semi final. But where did it all begin.

Its actually not with the controversial 'Hand of God' goal, scored by Diego Maradona in 1986, nor with the Falklands conflict of 1982.

These two sides first engaged in a bitter clash during the 1966 World Cup. We'll explain what happened then, and how the rivalry has played out for over 60 years.

Gianni Infantino is the most powerful man in world football, but he never seems to be far from controversy.

From rescinding red cards to sky-high ticket prices, we look at how the former Swiss lawyer climbed his way to the top of FIFA, how he's managed to hold onto power so successfully, and what the might future hold for him.

The UK is in the middle of its third heatwave of the year, with temperatures climbing into the mid-30s in parts of the country.

So how hot could it get? How long will it last? And how many heatwaves could we see this summer?

In this video, we'll explain what causes heatwaves, why heat in the UK can feel more intense than in many other countries, and the events already being disrupted by soaring temperatures.

England fans have turned their attention to Mexico after the Three Lions reached the last 16 of the World Cup, thanks to two late goals from Harry Kane.

The side will face Mexico at Estadio Azteca, which sits more than 7,300ft above sea level, at 1am BST on Monday.

At Estadio Azteca's height, oxygen intake can fall by more than 7% until the body has time to acclimatise.

That can reduce stamina and make it harder for players to sprint or press for long periods.

So, how are the squad hoping to overcome the altitude?
