Britain’s Queen Elizabeth attended church on Sunday, ahead of a crisis meeting to discuss future arrangements for Prince Harry and his wife Meghan. The 93-year-old monarch arrived at St. Mary Magdalene’s Church in Norfolk, eastern England. Britain’s royal family has been thrown into turmoil by Prince Harry’s announcement on Wednesday that he and his wife, who are together officially known as the Duke and Duchess of Sussex, would step back from their roles as senior members of Britain’s royal family. Harry’s father Prince Charles, the heir to the throne, and his elder brother Prince William, will also attend the meeting,…

Keir Starmer, the frontrunner in the race to lead Britain’s main opposition, launched his leadership campaign in Manchester, saying the future focus of Labour Party should be on ending fiscal austerity, investing in public services, and winning public arguments against Prime Minister Boris Johnson Starmer’s main opponent, Rebecca Long-Bailey, attended an event in Newcastle-Under-Lyme on Saturday, saying it was not the official launch to her leadership campaign but that she wanted to visit as many constituencies as possible to see how Labour failed them in last month’s general election. The overall winner in the contest, in which grassroots party members…

Christian doctor, Dr Richard Scott, has finally been vindicated after a concerted and targeted attack against him by a secularist campaign group was thrown out by the General Medical Council (GMC). Back in June, the National Secular Society (NSS) registered “concern” with the GMC that the GP was “continuing to pray and promote Christianity during consultations in an attempt to convert patients.” However, the GMC has ruled that there was no evidence and that Richard had done nothing wrong.

The release of a batch of internal messages has raised more questions about the safety of Boeing’s 737 Max. In one of the communications an employee said the plane was “designed by clowns”. The plane maker described the communications as “completely unacceptable”. The 737 Max was grounded in March 2019 after two fatal crashes in Indonesia and Ethiopia, which killed almost 350 people in total. Boeing said it had released the hundreds of redacted messages as part of its commitment to transparency. The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) and the US Congress were given unredacted versions of the communications last month.

Israel, today released two prisoners, including one jailed for spying for Syria, in what it called a goodwill gesture for the Russian-assisted repatriation, of the body of a long-missing Israeli soldier last year. The release followed the handing over of the remains and personal effects of Zachary Baumel, who was declared missing in action along with two other Israeli soldiers, by Russia. An Isreali prisons service spokeswoman described the released prisoners in a statement saying Sidqi al-Maqt was jailed in 2015 “for treason and espionage, support for terrorism and contact with a hostile organisation”, and Amal Abu Saleh, the same…

Candlelight vigils were held in several Canadian cities on Thursday (January 9) to remember the country’s 63 people killed in a plane crash in Iran, on a day when Prime Minister Justin Trudeau blamed the disaster on the Iranian government. In Toronto, mourners arranged candles on the ground and posted pictures of the victims. Some chanted “Death to Khamenei”, referencing Iranian Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei. The Ukrainian airliner that crashed, killing all 176 people aboard, was likely brought down by an Iranian missile, Trudeau said on Thursday, citing intelligence from Canadian, US and other sources. The flight was a…

Evidence suggests an Iranian missile brought down a Ukrainian passenger plane that crashed near Tehran, possibly in error, Western leaders say. The leaders of Canada and the UK called for a full and thorough investigation into the crash, which killed all 176 people on board. The crash came just hours after Iran carried out missile strikes on two air bases housing US forces in Iraq. Media outlets have speculated that the timing of the crash suggests the plane may have been mistaken for a US warplane as Iran prepared for possible US retaliation for their strikes. US intelligence sources are…

British Prime Minister Boris Johnson hosted European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen at Downing Street, hours after she told the UK it would be “basically impossible” to negotiate all aspects of its departure from the EU by the end of 2020 and each side needed to pick priorities while discussing their future relationship. Johnson has said he will not entertain the idea of extending Britain’s departure date beyond the current December 31 deadline. Both parties expect Johnson to get parliamentary approval on his withdrawal agreement before the end of January after his Conservative party significantly increased its majority in…

Kelechi Iheanacho’s equaliser gave Leicester City a deserved draw to leave the Carabao Cup semi-final against Aston Villa delicately poised after an entertaining encounter at the King Power Stadium. Substitute Iheanacho finished emphatically from Jamie Vardy’s pass with 16 minutes left to give The Foxes the reward their incessant second-half pressure merited to set up a tense second leg at Villa Park. Villa, struggling with injuries after goalkeeper Tom Heaton and striker Wesley were ruled out for the season, defended with organisation and resilience to protect the lead given to them after 28 minutes when Frederic Guilbert stole in at…

Britain’s Prince Harry, the grandson of Queen Elizabeth, said that he and his American wife Meghan plan to step back from their roles as senior members of Britain’s royal family and work to become financially independent. “We now plan to balance our time between the United Kingdom and North America, continuing to honour our duty to The Queen, the Commonwealth and our patronages,” he and Meghan said in a statement on the social media platform Instagram on Wednesday. Harry and Meghan married in May 2018 in a lavish ceremony at Windsor Castle, west of London, and in May 2019 the…
