"The conservative press were toying with Farage and flirting with the idea of backing him as PM. "The right-wing press have run stories which have not been favourable to him, and it's had an impact." Polls are down. Support drying up. Has Nigel lost it? www.thenewsagents.co.uk/article/how-...

One of the biggest successes on the island is the seabirds, but for Manx Shearwaters it has been phenomenal.

Hard to think of a more deeply damaging start to Burnham’s premiership than giving green light to new oil & gas in N. Sea, if true. It won’t lower bills or lead to greater energy security but will drive an even hotter planet. What a terrible signal to give to rest of the world #ClimateVandalism

On March 26, 2026, during a debate on violence against women in Germany’s Bundestag, left-wing MP Kathrin Gebel was repeatedly interrupted by AfD MP Martin Reichardt. She responded: “Mr. Reichardt, the clitoris has 3,000 nerve endings, and you’re still more sensitive. That’s quite an achievement.”
