Winning means fame and fortune. Losing means certain death. The Hunger Games have begun. . . . In the ruins of a place once known as North America lies the nation of Panem, a shining Capitol surrounded by twelve outlying districts. The Capitol is harsh and cruel and keeps the districts in line by forcing them all to send one boy and one girl between the ages of twelve and eighteen to participate in the annual Hunger Games, a fight to the death on live TV.

Sixteen-year-old Katniss Everdeen regards it as a death sentence when she steps forward to take her sister's place in the Games. But Katniss has been close to dead before-and survival, for her, is second nature. Without really meaning to, she becomes a contender. But if she is to win, she will have to start making choices that weigh survival against humanity and life against love.

Social media restrictions for under-16s even if no ban, minister says

The government is committed to implementing social media restrictions for under-16s but ministers must "make sure it works" before introducing changes, the Education Secretary Bridget Phillipson has told the BBC. The government is consulting on an outright ban, as well as other measures designed to stop teenagers accessing addictive and harmful material.

Phillipson's comments came after junior education minister Olivia Bailey said the government would "impose some form of age or functionality restrictions" even if it stopped short of a ban. Campaigners have called for an Australia-style ban on children using social media, but there are questions about how effective the prohibition has been.

Monday saw the latest stand-off between the government and House of Lords over the Children's Wellbeing and Schools Bill, which would give ministers the power to introduce sweeping restrictions on social media usage. Peers have repeatedly pushed the government to press ahead with a ban, voting in favour of opposition amendments on four occasions.

The government proposed further amendments to the bill on Monday in an effort to end the deadlock, including one which would give ministers the power to implement a ban in the future but stops short of introducing as quickly as the Lords had called for. MPs supported the government's changes to the draft law by 272 votes to 64, with the bill now returning to the Lords for what looks to be the final consideration before it receives royal assent and becomes law.
