Trump govt cancels Obama policy for illegal immigrant families

    The Trump administration announced on Thursday that it is cancelling an Obama-era policy to allow millions of illegal-immigrant parents of children born in the United States to stay in the country. The 2014 policy, known as DAPA, for Deferred Action for Parents of Americans and Lawful Permanent Residents, aimed to help the families of so- called ‘dreamer’ children stay together free from the threat of deportation. It was never implemented after 26 states successfully sued in a Texas federal district court to block it. The US Supreme Court let the lower court ruling stand last year after a four-four tie vote. Set out in a memo from the administration of then-president Barack Obama, the policy said the government would defer any action against illegal immigrant parents of ch...

The call in show that lets Russians take their problems straight to Vladimir Putin

    Facing a wave of popular unrest not seen in Russia in years, President Vladi¬mir Putin took to the nation’s airwaves Thursday for his annual call-in show that gives Russians the chance to take up their problems directly with the Kremlin leader. Direct Line with the President is airing just three days after tens of thousands of people turned out in more than 180 cities across Russia to express their dissatisfaction with the Russian government, the most widespread protest in the country since Putin returned to the presidency in 2012. But barring an unforeseen but not unprecedented glitch, don’t expect anyone to truly put Putin on the spot. The event is highly choreographed to show the Russian leader as a man who understands the lives of his citizens, especially their mistrus...

British hacker admits stealing Pentagon satellite data

    A British hacker has admitted stealing hundreds of online accounts from a US military communications system and then boasting online of how he controlled US satellites. Sean Caffrey accessed and stole details of more than 800 users of a US Department of Defence satellite system as well as about 30,000 satellite phones. The 25-year-old from Sutton Coldfield was seized two years ago in a joint investigation with British police.

But he was tracked down and arrested nine months later after detectives from the UK’s National Crime Agency traced the attack to his internet connection. Detecti...

The Queen visits Grenfell Tower fire victims with Prince William

    The Queen looked teary-eyed while visiting the Grenfell Tower fire victims, rescuers and volunteers in west London to hear first hand accounts of the tragedy. Accompanied by the Duke of Cambridge, William, she arrived shortly before 11am at a rest centre helping those directly affected by the blaze. The site is only yards from the charred remains of the building in west London - and is one of the locations where people have been making donations.
