Speculation PM could call election to forestall possible leadership challenge has its own momentum despite No 10 dismissals
In a sign of how febrile the atmosphere in Westminster is just now, there were wild rumours flying around on Friday that Rishi Sunak was planning to finally call an election straight after the weekend.
The fact that this particular theory appears to have begun with Labour party speculation that the prime minister could announce a date to put an end to questions over his own leadership does not appear to have slowed down its spread.

Star striker talks achieving another promotion, potentially making scoring history and finding acceptance in his sonas autism
aThe desire to win will be the same as every other game,a Paul Mullin says as he anticipates a Hollywood-style finale for Wrexham on Saturday afternoon while their fans at home and around the world celebrate a second straight promotion. Wrexhamas last game in League Two is against the new champions, Stockport County, and Mullin is determined to end another tumultuous and successful season with a personal milestone.
If Mullin scores against Stockport he will become the first player since Alan Shearer to have racked up at least 25 goals in four consecutive seasons across the top five flights of English football. Mullin has spent the past hour thoughtfully discussing his role in the delirium surrounding Wrexhamas rise under the celebrity ownership of Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney and a range of subjects from finding acceptance and even joy in his sonas autism to how this season began with a fleeting acknowledgment of his seemingly imminent death.

Elon Musk became the worldas richest man by evangelising about electric cars a and delivering them by the million. Yet in recent months his company, Tesla, has struggled to maintain its momentum: sales have dropped this year, and so has its share price.
Those struggles have become emblematic of a broader reckoning facing the electric vehicle (EV) industry.

The industry has entered a new phase, with questions over whether the switch from petrol and diesel to cleaner electric is facing a troublesome stall or a temporary speed bump.

This is the sort of food invented for British people that youad have got at a Cantonese restaurant back in 1994
Off to Canterbury for a shufti around the cathedral, a meander through its pretty streets and a spot of lunch at Sekkoya, a vast, gorgeous-looking new pan-Asian restaurant on the Riverside next to a Curzon cinema, a crazy golf venue and a branch of Heavenly Desserts. The restaurantas sleek website offers all sorts of bold statements about this hot dining experience (regular readers will be aware that I delight in this kind of Vogon poetry), claiming that it will take us on a agastronomic journey throughout Asia that transcends ordinary flavoursa, and offering cocktails that will aawaken your sensesa.

Only a non-sentient being could describe Canterburyas Riverside as a avibrant new lifestyle districta, when itas just an elevated patch of concrete. Maybe Sekkoya is entitled to be cocky, though, because itas clearly the classiest venue for miles: the place is bedecked in sea-green velour, with shiny floors, pale tan leather seats and an impressive amurala skylight that gives the impression that youare dining in a rainforest. Fans of the opulent Chinese restaurant chain Tattu, which is especially big in Manchester, Birmingham and Leeds, will recognise dashes of the modern, high-octane glamour that delights Instagram feeds. Add beautiful bathrooms, Kool & The Gang and George Benson on the stereo, and lovely, chipper serving staff, and they clearly mean business here.

Both were pilloried, but that was then. Today, one has beaten a rape conviction, the other may return as president
According to his representatives, former Hollywood mogul Harvey Weinstein is still digesting the overturning of his rape conviction by a New York court, but they did come out to say he was acautiously exciteda. Cautiously excited? Iam not sure these are the words Iad alight on to paint a word-picture of a rapist. You might as well say atentatively arouseda.

Speaking of word-pictures, though, howas this for a vignette of our times? When they heard the news that Weinsteinas conviction had been overturned on Thursday, a whole host of reporters happened to be looking at the exact spot in the exact New York courtroom that head sat in when that original judgment had been handed down. This was because they were waiting for Donald Trump to sit in it for Thursdayas proceedings in his hush money trial. Mr Trump, you might recall, is in such a lot of trouble that he is the presumptive Republican nominee and current bookiesa favourite to win the US presidency again, though admittedly he lags behind Weinstein on the sexual assault and misconduct front, given that only 26 women have accused him of it.

The first ministeras latest misstep will worsen his partyas split along culture war lines. Itas a mess, but a boon for Scottish Labour
The Bute House agreement (BHA) was supposed to stabilise the SNP. Brokered by Nicola Sturgeon in August 2021, the coalition with the Greens at first appeared a masterstroke, allowing the party to burnish its environmental credentials and bolster its aprogressivea image, while presenting a united front and pro-independence majority in Holyrood that it believed would strengthen the case for a second referendum. But, in a shock move, Humza Yousaf ripped up the agreement on Thursday morning and fired the Green co-leaders as ministers from his government. The SNP leader now faces a no-confidence motion, which he could well lose. He has promised to fight on and contest the motion, but what was supposed to be a show of strength has ended up exposing his weakness.
Since the deal was first brokered, the culture war has moved on apace. Without Sturgeon at the helm, the party a always a fragile alliance of right and left, progressives and conservatives, fundamentalists and gradualists a has become bitterly divided over the ill-fated gender recognition reform bill and the Hate Crime and Public Order (Scotland) Act. Many believe its leadersa fixation with aidentity politicsa has distracted from more urgent issues such as education, the NHS and child poverty, which they say used to be at the heart of the SNP governmentas mission.

The US president continues to support Israel in its onslaught on Gaza. Morehouse Collegeas most famous alumnus was anti-war
Morehouse College is a special place. The only all-male historically Black college in the world, it has alumni ranging from Dr Martin Luther King Jr, the most celebrated anti-war civil rights leader in history, to Theodore aTeda Colbert III, the CEO of Boeingas defense, space and security division, a key player in supplying the weapons technologies for Israelas months-long campaign of military vengeance on Palestinians.
While there is much diversity among the ranks of this brotherhood, Morehouse a also my alma mater a places a primacy on moral leadership and service, and Dr King has been a critical avatar in these efforts. There is a prominent statue of him on campus, his likeness is depicted as a silhouette on official college brochures, the chapel on campus is named in his honor. His papers are held nearby at the Robert W Woodruff Library. Considering Kingas anti-militarism, and the collegeas embrace of him as a beacon on campus, the decision to invite Joe Biden to give Morehouseas commencement speech to this yearas graduating class is a moral disaster.
The US presidentas staunch support of Israel in the face of its unrelenting assault on Palestinians in the Israel-Gaza war has sparked sustained protests throughout the country, most recently on multiple college campuses. And though some have tried to take Kingas defense of Israelas right to exist as evidence that he would affirm without qualification Israelas present military campaign, his broader anti-militarism cannot be conveniently pushed aside, nor can his stated desire for a peaceful resolution in the region.

So often those who think theyare doing their bit serve only to make an already impossible situation even worse.

Instead of buy-one-get-one-free offers, everyday life now involves carefully comparing prices and feeling increasingly powerless
Under capitalism, prices are supposed to be the centre of everything. They are the key agreement between buyer and seller. They are the one clear and reliable piece of information, on which the whole often opaque and unstable system depends.
So it struck me as strange when some of my local London shops stopped displaying the prices of some goods a couple of years ago. It started with upmarket fishmongers, and I wondered whether this was because wealthy customers didnat need to count their pennies. But then the practice spread to corner shops and greengrocers, with a wider clientele, and to everyday purchases such as fruit and vegetables. There was a cost of living crisis going on, the worst in Britain for 40 years, but parts of Hackney seemed to be in denial.

This is not a repeat of the Covid pandemic. Yet global governments should follow the US and prepare a response
Avian flu, or H5N1, is making headlines in the United States. The past few years have seen concerning signs of it spreading across the world a whether in chickens in Britain, sea lions in Peru, or Caspian seals in Russia. This time, it is has been confirmed in American cows, and the World Health Organization has warned that the risk of it spreading to humans is of aenormous concerna.
While it is early days, the hypothesis is that in late 2023, a single cow was infected by coming into contact with infected birdsa faeces, or having infected dead birds in its feed. This began cow-to-cow transmission, and potentially even cow-to-bird transmission. The US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has also confirmed one human case of H5N1 in a farm worker, which could either represent cow-to-human (not seen before) or bird-to-human transmission.

Museums have closed and festivals lost funding a but Labour will restore Britainas creative superpower status
A culture change is on the way when this moribund government of the living dead is gone.

If you remember that morning in 1997, a fresh air blew and with it came a new mood, language, attitudes, habits of mind.

Culture itself was one mark of the scale of change when Labouras Chris Smith sent attendances soaring as he abolished charges for museums and galleries. Creative UK this week put out its manifesto for the election, representing the vast industry covering all the arts, from the Royal Shakespeare Company to the thriving video-games industry, fashion, architecture, design, advertising, the phonographic industry and more. The arts are a vital British export, and key to the countryas soft power. But that canat last if its funding keeps falling: the organisation warns politicians that they must shake off acomplacency around the UKas superpower creative statusa.

Imprisonment for public protection sentences were flawed and unjust. Labour should commit to finish them off
The harmful effects of imprisonment for public protection sentences (IPPs) are well documented. For Tommy Nicol and Francis Williams, whose sisters have both spoken to the Guardian about the impact of punishments with no end-date, the pressure was unbearable. Nicol, who was originally jailed for a violent robbery, took his own life during a mental health crisis at the Mount prison in 2015. Williams, also convicted of robbery, died of an overdose in Bognor Regis last year a hours after telling a probation officer that he was suicidal.
These tragedies are far from unique. At least 90 prisoners on IPPs have died by suicide in custody. Others, including Williams, died while on licence (Williams was on the verge of being recalled). One study found rates of self-harm to be 2.5 times higher among IPP prisoners. Evidence to the justice select committee from a forensic psychiatrist compared the clinical presentation of these inmates, almost all of whom are men, to athose who have been wrongfully convicteda. Such is the stress of being given this kind of sentence, which resembles a life sentence but was in many cases handed down for far less serious crimes.

For millennia different people and different groupings have wanted the same thing, which is regarded as desirable by each. Obviously they cannot both have it a unless what they both want is peace. The challenge has been and continues to be, both in Europe and elsewhere in the world, to construct a political order which enables competing sides to live in continuing peace, notwithstanding that they cannot each have all that they wish. For each side to insist that the other is overcome does not lead to lasting peace a as France and Germany and many other places have shown over centuries.

Readers respond to a letter which said that MDMA is not helpful in mental health care
Rachel McNulty (Letters, 19 April) is right to emphasise the need for proper funding of integrated mental health care and social support, but wrong to dismiss MDMA based on a single anecdotal case. I can provide a number of counter-anecdotes showing the value of MDMA to mental health, including a friend of mine who has said that it saved him from taking his life in his youth.
However, science-based healthcare is not about anecdotes, but systematically gathered evidence and controlled trials. Such trials are already under way and are showing strong promise for both MDMA and psychedelics as effective psychiatric medicines when used appropriately. They are absolutely necessary to provide a clear evidence base that cuts through both awar on drugsa scare stories and psychedelic hype.

How readers chose to approach their straying partners varied dramatically depending on the length and nature of their relationship and what shape the outside encounter took. If families and mutual assets were involved a and other relationship factors were stable a readers tended to double down on commitments, opting to frame such transgressions as an opportunity for growth and refreshment.

The US president continues to support Israel in its onslaught on Gaza. Morehouse Collegeas most famous alumnus was anti-war
Morehouse College is a special place. The only all-male historically Black college in the world, it has alumni ranging from Dr Martin Luther King Jr, the most celebrated anti-war civil rights leader in history, to Theodore aTeda Colbert III, the CEO of Boeingas defense, space and security division, a key player in supplying the weapons technologies for Israelas months-long campaign of military vengeance on Palestinians.
While there is much diversity among the ranks of this brotherhood, Morehouse a also my alma mater a places a primacy on moral leadership and service, and Dr King has been a critical avatar in these efforts. There is a prominent statue of him on campus, his likeness is depicted as a silhouette on official college brochures, the chapel on campus is named in his honor. His papers are held nearby at the Robert W Woodruff Library. Considering Kingas anti-militarism, and the collegeas embrace of him as a beacon on campus, the decision to invite Joe Biden to give Morehouseas commencement speech to this yearas graduating class is a moral disaster.
The US presidentas staunch support of Israel in the face of its unrelenting assault on Palestinians in the Israel-Gaza war has sparked sustained protests throughout the country, most recently on multiple college campuses. And though some have tried to take Kingas defense of Israelas right to exist as evidence that he would affirm without qualification Israelas present military campaign, his broader anti-militarism cannot be conveniently pushed aside, nor can his stated desire for a peaceful resolution in the region.

When they heard the news that Weinsteinas conviction had been overturned on Thursday, a whole host of reporters happened to be looking at the exact spot in the exact New York courtroom that head sat in when that original judgment had been handed down.

This time, it is has been confirmed in American cows, and the World Health Organization has warned that the risk of it spreading to humans is of aenormous concerna.
While it is early days, the hypothesis is that in late 2023, a single cow was infected by coming into contact with infected birdsa faeces, or having infected dead birds in its feed. This began cow-to-cow transmission, and potentially even cow-to-bird transmission. The US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has also confirmed one human case of H5N1 in a farm worker, which could either represent cow-to-human (not seen before) or bird-to-human transmission.

Neither of these is the case: the kebab is the second most popular fast food among Germans, and according to polls, the AfD their second most popular political party.

The Balsa 94, a bulk carrier sailing under a Panama flag, passed through the new 35ft channel headed for Saint John, New Brunswick, Canada, on Thursday. Two more commercial ships followed later, including a vehicle carrier headed to Panama.

EV sales have plateaued across the world but the newfound glut of vehicles may just be temporary
Elon Musk became the worldas richest man by evangelising about electric cars a and delivering them by the million. Yet in recent months his company, Tesla, has struggled to maintain its momentum: sales have dropped this year, and so has its share price.
Those struggles have become emblematic of a broader reckoning facing the electric vehicle (EV) industry. After the soaring demand and valuations of the coronavirus pandemic years, the pace of sales growth has slowed. The industry has entered a new phase, with questions over whether the switch from petrol and diesel to cleaner electric is facing a troublesome stall or a temporary speed bump.

As support for abortion even in states as red as Kentucky and Kansas grows, the GOP appears to be breaking ranks with the hardliners
In the two years since the US supreme court overturned Roe v Wade, the 50-year-long partnership between Republicans and anti-abortion activists has steadily fractured as political backlash to abortion bans has mounted. But perhaps the biggest crack emerged on Wednesday, when Arizonaas Republican-controlled state legislature moved to repeal the stateas 1864 near-total abortion ban.
After days of national outcry over an Arizona supreme court ruling that upheld the 1864 ban, passed before Arizona became a state, three Republicans in the state house broke ranks to vote with Democrats to support a repeal. Last week, two Republicans in the state senate also voted with Democrats to advance a similar repeal. As long as those Republican votes hold firm, Democrats will likely send the repeal to Arizonaas Democratic governor in May.

This is the sort of food invented for British people that youad have got at a Cantonese restaurant back in 1994
Off to Canterbury for a shufti around the cathedral, a meander through its pretty streets and a spot of lunch at Sekkoya, a vast, gorgeous-looking new pan-Asian restaurant on the Riverside next to a Curzon cinema, a crazy golf venue and a branch of Heavenly Desserts.

Both were pilloried, but that was then. Today, one has beaten a rape conviction, the other may return as president

Speaking of word-pictures, though, howas this for a vignette of our times? When they heard the news that Weinsteinas conviction had been overturned on Thursday, a whole host of reporters happened to be looking at the exact spot in the exact New York courtroom that head sat in when that original judgment had been handed down. This was because they were waiting for Donald Trump to sit in it for Thursdayas proceedings in his hush money trial. Mr Trump, you might recall, is in such a lot of trouble that he is the presumptive Republican nominee and current bookiesa favourite to win the US presidency again, though admittedly he lags behind Weinstein on the sexual assault and misconduct front, given that only 26 women have accused him of it.

The first ministeras latest misstep will worsen his partyas split along culture war lines. Itas a mess, but a boon for Scottish Labour
The Bute House agreement (BHA) was supposed to stabilise the SNP. Brokered by Nicola Sturgeon in August 2021, the coalition with the Greens at first appeared a masterstroke, allowing the party to burnish its environmental credentials and bolster its aprogressivea image, while presenting a united front and pro-independence majority in Holyrood that it believed would strengthen the case for a second referendum. But, in a shock move, Humza Yousaf ripped up the agreement on Thursday morning and fired the Green co-leaders as ministers from his government. The SNP leader now faces a no-confidence motion, which he could well lose. He has promised to fight on and contest the motion, but what was supposed to be a show of strength has ended up exposing his weakness.
Since the deal was first brokered, the culture war has moved on apace. Without Sturgeon at the helm, the party a always a fragile alliance of right and left, progressives and conservatives, fundamentalists and gradualists a has become bitterly divided over the ill-fated gender recognition reform bill and the Hate Crime and Public Order (Scotland) Act. Many believe its leadersa fixation with aidentity politicsa has distracted from more urgent issues such as education, the NHS and child poverty, which they say used to be at the heart of the SNP governmentas mission.

The US president continues to support Israel in its onslaught on Gaza. Morehouse Collegeas most famous alumnus was anti-war
Morehouse College is a special place. The only all-male historically Black college in the world, it has alumni ranging from Dr Martin Luther King Jr, the most celebrated anti-war civil rights leader in history, to Theodore aTeda Colbert III, the CEO of Boeingas defense, space and security division, a key player in supplying the weapons technologies for Israelas months-long campaign of military vengeance on Palestinians.
While there is much diversity among the ranks of this brotherhood, Morehouse a also my alma mater a places a primacy on moral leadership and service, and Dr King has been a critical avatar in these efforts. There is a prominent statue of him on campus, his likeness is depicted as a silhouette on official college brochures, the chapel on campus is named in his honor. His papers are held nearby at the Robert W Woodruff Library. Considering Kingas anti-militarism, and the collegeas embrace of him as a beacon on campus, the decision to invite Joe Biden to give Morehouseas commencement speech to this yearas graduating class is a moral disaster.
The US presidentas staunch support of Israel in the face of its unrelenting assault on Palestinians in the Israel-Gaza war has sparked sustained protests throughout the country, most recently on multiple college campuses. And though some have tried to take Kingas defense of Israelas right to exist as evidence that he would affirm without qualification Israelas present military campaign, his broader anti-militarism cannot be conveniently pushed aside, nor can his stated desire for a peaceful resolution in the region.

Instead of buy-one-get-one-free offers, everyday life now involves carefully comparing prices and feeling increasingly powerless
Under capitalism, prices are supposed to be the centre of everything. They are the key agreement between buyer and seller. They are the one clear and reliable piece of information, on which the whole often opaque and unstable system depends.
So it struck me as strange when some of my local London shops stopped displaying the prices of some goods a couple of years ago. It started with upmarket fishmongers, and I wondered whether this was because wealthy customers didnat need to count their pennies. But then the practice spread to corner shops and greengrocers, with a wider clientele, and to everyday purchases such as fruit and vegetables. There was a cost of living crisis going on, the worst in Britain for 40 years, but parts of Hackney seemed to be in denial.

This is not a repeat of the Covid pandemic. Yet global governments should follow the US and prepare a response
Avian flu, or H5N1, is making headlines in the United States. The past few years have seen concerning signs of it spreading across the world a whether in chickens in Britain, sea lions in Peru, or Caspian seals in Russia. This time, it is has been confirmed in American cows, and the World Health Organization has warned that the risk of it spreading to humans is of aenormous concerna.
While it is early days, the hypothesis is that in late 2023, a single cow was infected by coming into contact with infected birdsa faeces, or having infected dead birds in its feed. This began cow-to-cow transmission, and potentially even cow-to-bird transmission. The US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has also confirmed one human case of H5N1 in a farm worker, which could either represent cow-to-human (not seen before) or bird-to-human transmission.

Imprisonment for public protection sentences were flawed and unjust. Labour should commit to finish them off
The harmful effects of imprisonment for public protection sentences (IPPs) are well documented. For Tommy Nicol and Francis Williams, whose sisters have both spoken to the Guardian about the impact of punishments with no end-date, the pressure was unbearable. Nicol, who was originally jailed for a violent robbery, took his own life during a mental health crisis at the Mount prison in 2015. Williams, also convicted of robbery, died of an overdose in Bognor Regis last year a hours after telling a probation officer that he was suicidal.
These tragedies are far from unique. At least 90 prisoners on IPPs have died by suicide in custody. Others, including Williams, died while on licence (Williams was on the verge of being recalled). One study found rates of self-harm to be 2.5 times higher among IPP prisoners. Evidence to the justice select committee from a forensic psychiatrist compared the clinical presentation of these inmates, almost all of whom are men, to athose who have been wrongfully convicteda. Such is the stress of being given this kind of sentence, which resembles a life sentence but was in many cases handed down for far less serious crimes.

For millennia different people and different groupings have wanted the same thing, which is regarded as desirable by each. Obviously they cannot both have it a unless what they both want is peace. The challenge has been and continues to be, both in Europe and elsewhere in the world, to construct a political order which enables competing sides to live in continuing peace, notwithstanding that they cannot each have all that they wish. For each side to insist that the other is overcome does not lead to lasting peace a as France and Germany and many other places have shown over centuries.

Readers respond to a letter which said that MDMA is not helpful in mental health care
Rachel McNulty (Letters, 19 April) is right to emphasise the need for proper funding of integrated mental health care and social support, but wrong to dismiss MDMA based on a single anecdotal case. I can provide a number of counter-anecdotes showing the value of MDMA to mental health, including a friend of mine who has said that it saved him from taking his life in his youth.
However, science-based healthcare is not about anecdotes, but systematically gathered evidence and controlled trials. Such trials are already under way and are showing strong promise for both MDMA and psychedelics as effective psychiatric medicines when used appropriately. They are absolutely necessary to provide a clear evidence base that cuts through both awar on drugsa scare stories and psychedelic hype.

The US president continues to support Israel in its onslaught on Gaza. Morehouse Collegeas most famous alumnus was anti-war
Morehouse College is a special place. The only all-male historically Black college in the world, it has alumni ranging from Dr Martin Luther King Jr, the most celebrated anti-war civil rights leader in history, to Theodore aTeda Colbert III, the CEO of Boeingas defense, space and security division, a key player in supplying the weapons technologies for Israelas months-long campaign of military vengeance on Palestinians.
While there is much diversity among the ranks of this brotherhood, Morehouse a also my alma mater a places a primacy on moral leadership and service, and Dr King has been a critical avatar in these efforts. There is a prominent statue of him on campus, his likeness is depicted as a silhouette on official college brochures, the chapel on campus is named in his honor. His papers are held nearby at the Robert W Woodruff Library. Considering Kingas anti-militarism, and the collegeas embrace of him as a beacon on campus, the decision to invite Joe Biden to give Morehouseas commencement speech to this yearas graduating class is a moral disaster.
The US presidentas staunch support of Israel in the face of its unrelenting assault on Palestinians in the Israel-Gaza war has sparked sustained protests throughout the country, most recently on multiple college campuses. And though some have tried to take Kingas defense of Israelas right to exist as evidence that he would affirm without qualification Israelas present military campaign, his broader anti-militarism cannot be conveniently pushed aside, nor can his stated desire for a peaceful resolution in the region.

This time, it is has been confirmed in American cows, and the World Health Organization has warned that the risk of it spreading to humans is of aenormous concerna.
While it is early days, the hypothesis is that in late 2023, a single cow was infected by coming into contact with infected birdsa faeces, or having infected dead birds in its feed. This began cow-to-cow transmission, and potentially even cow-to-bird transmission. The US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has also confirmed one human case of H5N1 in a farm worker, which could either represent cow-to-human (not seen before) or bird-to-human transmission.

So often those who think theyare doing their bit serve only to make an already impossible situation even worse.
The week began with an instructive example, when Gideon Falter, head of the Campaign Against Antisemitism, released a video clip of himself being steered away from one of Londonas weekly Gaza demonstrations by a police officer on the grounds that: aYou are quite openly Jewish, this is a pro-Palestinian march.a Falter argued that he had flushed out proof that the Metropolitan police regard the marches as an unsafe environment for visibly Jewish people, even though the Met allows them to go ahead week after week.

His viral TikToks of his generic 9-5 life in a Texas suburb have become a Rorschach test of sorts
Connor Hubbard might be the most boring man on the internet. The 29-year-old dresses like a generic white guy, lives in a nice but unremarkable house in the Dallas, Texas, suburbs and works a 9-5 in insurance. He alives fora his morning coffee and loves going to the gym after work and watching TV in the evening. He is perfectly happy with his mundane existence a which includes a wife, a dog and a baby on the way a and does not aspire to anything more. The internet is obsessed with him.
Every few months one of Hubbardas slice-of-an-ordinary-life videos goes viral eliciting extreme reactions. A Rorschach test of sorts, half of the viewers seem to think his world is morbidly depressing (awhat is the point of even living?a one person asked), while the other half thinks it is hugely aspirational. Under the comment section of the latest video to go viral, people are having heated debates about whether the man is a role model or a cautionary tale.

Germanyas complicity with Turkeyas repressive regime worries me more than its dAPner diplomacy
aNazis eat dAPner kebabs in secret,a must be one of the dumbest slogans I have seen at German protests against the far right. Yes, the popularity of the kebab in Germany has become something of a symbol of labour migration from Turkey after the second world war. And yes, Nazis get hungry, too. So what? If the consumption of ethnic-minority food was really an obstacle to the ideology of white supremacy, Germans would either be starved out by now or they wouldnat vote for Alternative fA1/4r Deutschland (AfD). Neither of these is the case: the kebab is the second most popular fast food among Germans, and according to polls, the AfD their second most popular political party.
Still, for the German president, Frank-Walter Steinmeier, it seems to be a sign of cosmopolitanism to promote kebab eating, so his team thought it a good idea to send him to Turkey with a whole skewer full of meat as part of an official visit this week, the first by a German president in 10 years.

- Atlanta selected the Washington QB with No 8 pick in the draft
- Cousins signed $180m contract with Falcons this offseason
- Bears tap Caleb Williams with No 1 pick as six QBs go in top 12
The Atlanta Falcons provided the shock of the first round of the NFL draft by selecting quarterback Michael Penix Jr with the No 8 overall pick on Thursday night.
The Falcons extended their recent trend of selecting offensive skill players in the first round by drafting Penix one month after signing Kirk Cousins to a four-year, $180m contract with $100m guaranteed. Using a draft slot normally targeted for players expected to make an immediate impact, the Falcons picked Penix as the apparent long-term successor to the 35-year-old Cousins. The Falcons had been expected to use the pick to boost their pass rush.

As support for abortion even in states as red as Kentucky and Kansas grows, the GOP appears to be breaking ranks with the hardliners
In the two years since the US supreme court overturned Roe v Wade, the 50-year-long partnership between Republicans and anti-abortion activists has steadily fractured as political backlash to abortion bans has mounted. But perhaps the biggest crack emerged on Wednesday, when Arizonaas Republican-controlled state legislature moved to repeal the stateas 1864 near-total abortion ban.
After days of national outcry over an Arizona supreme court ruling that upheld the 1864 ban, passed before Arizona became a state, three Republicans in the state house broke ranks to vote with Democrats to support a repeal. Last week, two Republicans in the state senate also voted with Democrats to advance a similar repeal. As long as those Republican votes hold firm, Democrats will likely send the repeal to Arizonaas Democratic governor in May.
