You don’t have to agree with every decision a court makes to understand why politicians shouldn’t get to decide which courts are legitimate. reuters.com/world/internatio…
Britons are now being told to keep three days of food, water and emergency supplies at home.
For years, “preppers” were treated as slightly eccentric.
Perhaps resilience is just common sense with better branding.
An email arrived from a writer in LA thanking us for The Dancing Boys of Afghanistan and Pakistan’s Hidden Shame. Made 16 and 12 years ago.
TV is obsessed with the next thing. Easy to forget a film can keep making a difference years later.
Sudan rarely gets the attention its death toll deserves.
A UN probe says foreign weapons, drones and fighters are sustaining the war, with some drone attacks amounting to war crimes.
Civil wars rarely stay civil when outsiders see something to gain. reuters.com/world/americas/f…
Meta has agreed to two-hour daily limits, overnight blocks and restrictions on school-hour notifications for US teenagers as part of an $18bn settlement. It denies wrongdoing.

UEFA is preparing a criminal complaint against Gianni Infantino over FIFA’s abandoned plan to put World Cup commercial rights into a new company.
FIFA has spent years telling us governance has changed. Fans could be forgiven for a certain sense of déjà vu.
So proud of Eleanor. It was an honour to tell her story in CBBC's My Life: How I See It.
Eleanor is a finalist in the @BBCLondonNews Young Hero category for the @BBC Make A Difference Awards 2026. After sight loss from a brain tumour, she became the first VI young person in the UK – possibly the world – to deliver live audio description. 🤩 #BBCMakeADifferenceAwards

ALT A fancy BBC branded starry purple awards background, with the words “I’M A FINALIST” written in bold white type in the centre. At the bottom is the BBC Make A Difference Awards logo.

ALT Eleanor is sitting in the Directors Box at The National Theatre with a look of deep concentration on her face, she is wearing a microphone headset. Her fingers are placed on her braille script on the desktop in front of her. In this still picture she is probably mid description. The supporting professional audio describer’s laptop and hands are slightly visible in the foreground.
Seven people died on the A66, including two police officers. Days later, cars were torched at a vigil for one of those killed.
Grief deserves space. This isn't grief. It's a frightening glimpse of the lawlessness gripping parts of Teesside. express.co.uk/news/uk/224331…
First the Gulf of Mexico. Now Trump has ordered Lake Ontario renamed “Lake America”.
At this rate, cartographers may as well leave space for the United States of Trumpland.
NASA’s new Roman Space Telescope is due to launch on Sunday, 9 months ahead of schedule. Hunting for planets beyond our solar system & try to answer questions about dark matter, dark energy & how the universe works.
Good luck to it. We'll be watching. science.nasa.gov/blogs/roman…
A ceasefire is supposed to mean civilians can begin living again.
Channel 4 News last night showed something very different in Gaza: families living beside a shifting “yellow line”, watched by drones and snipers, and children learning how to avoid being shot.

Yesterday, images from Nepal seemed almost too awful to be real. Today, the scale is becoming clearer. Nearly 1,500 people missing. At least 165 dead. The full extent of the devastation is still emerging, with entire communities cut off & thousands of families waiting for news.
Dolly Parton managed something increasingly rare: enormous fame without becoming a culture-war combatant.
She sold 100m+ records. Her Imagination Library has given children more than 300m books.
Perhaps the second figure tells you more about why she was so loved than the first.
3.7m Afghan children are acutely malnourished. Around one million have life-threatening severe acute malnutrition.
Afghanistan has slipped so far down the news agenda that figures like these barely register. unicef.org/press-releases/ho…
You almost want this footage from Nepal to be AI. That’s how devastating it is.
It’s circulating rapidly in the aftermath of the floods, but with images like this now so hard to verify in real time, the instinct is to hesitate. A terrible thing to hope. But you hope it isn’t real
