A murder investigation has been launched after a forty-year-old man was shot dead as people gathered for a memorial service in west London. Emergency services were called to East Acton on Friday evening following reports of multiple gunshots. Medical staff treated the victim, but he died at the scene. Police confirmed forty to fifty people, including children, were attending the gathering when the shooting took place. A Flydubai co-pilot who […]
There is something different about Friday in Britain. It is technically just another day of the week, but nobody really treats it that way. Monday has a reputation for being difficult, Tuesday is generally ignored, Wednesday is the awkward middle child, Thursday is spent looking forward to Friday, and then Friday finally arrives with its own set of rules. Some of those rules are obvious. Others are strange little habits […]
Two Iranian nationals have been charged over a suspected terror plot targeting Jewish people in Manchester. Salam Ahmadyan, aged thirty-six, and Rahman Salehi, aged thirty-four, were arrested by counter-terrorism police on the twentieth of September. Both men face charges of preparing terrorist acts. Home Secretary Shabana Mahmood confirmed both suspects originally arrived in the United Kingdom on small boats several years ago. Tennessee death row inmate Christa Pike is unconscious […]
There was a time when getting into the car meant entering a small, mobile storage cupboard. Not because we were particularly organised, but because we seemed to believe that absolutely anything might come in useful one day. Modern cars are remarkably clever. They can tell you where you are, warn you about traffic, connect to your phone, play almost any song you can think of and, in some cases, practically […]
Tennessee death row inmate Christa Pike is in a critical condition in hospital after surviving two lethal injection attempts on Wednesday. The fifty-year-old was sentenced to death in 1996 for murder. Following the failed executions, her lawyers confirmed she remains alive and are calling for her sentence to be commuted. The state's governor has consequently halted all scheduled executions for the rest of the year. Britain is in talks with […]
Bedrooms have changed enormously over the years. Today, a bedroom can be surprisingly minimalist. There might be a bed, a wardrobe, a bedside table, perhaps a television and, almost certainly, a phone charger. Everything has a place, everything is relatively streamlined and there is usually some attempt to make the room look as though it belongs in a home interiors magazine. For many Gen Xers, however, the bedroom was a […]
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has described an incident on a grounded Flydubai flight as an extremely severe security breach, stating one pilot stabbed another in an apparent attempt to crash the aircraft. Speaking in a video statement, Mr Netanyahu confirmed Saudi authorities have arrested and are questioning the attacking pilot. He added that a passenger and crew member managed to break into the cockpit to neutralise the attacker. Former […]
There is something slightly strange about being told that it is going to reach 27°C when September is almost over. By this point in the year, we have usually started thinking about darker evenings, jumpers, heating bills and whether it is too early to put the winter duvet back on the bed. The summer clothes have often been pushed towards the back of the wardrobe, the barbecue has been cleaned […]
Prime Minister Andy Burnham has outlined plans to transform Britain, including ending the state pension triple lock from 2030 to help fund a new national care service. Speaking at the Labour Party conference, Mr Burnham proposed linking annual pension increases to inflation or 2.5%, removing the earnings link to generate savings. He also signaled plans for greater public control over housing, water, energy, and potential electoral reform. Three teenagers have […]
