Boris urges PM to stand up to EU bullies

    Boris Johnson is demanding a show of defiance from Theresa May after Brexit talks collapsed amid further clashes over the future of the Irish border. At the start of a make-or-break week for the prime minister which could determine how long she survives, he said a crisis was looming and urgent action was needed. The former foreign secretary re-opened hostilities against Mrs May after talks in Brussels between Brexit Secretary Dominic Raab and the EU's Michel Barnier broke down after little more than an hour. Writing in his Daily Telegraph column, Mr Johnson declared: There comes a point when you have to stand up to bullies. After more than two years of being ruthlessly pushed around by the EU, it is time for the UK to resist. With painful politeness, we have agre...

Climate change not hoax but takes aim at political agenda of scientists

    Donald Trump is backing off his claim that climate change is a hoax but says he doesn't know if it's manmade and suggests that the climate will change back again. In an interview with CBS 60 Minutes that aired on Sunday night, the US President said he did not want to put the US at a disadvantage in responding to climate change. I think something's happening. Something's changing and it'll change back again, he said. I don't think it's a hoax. I think there's probably a difference. But I don't know that it's manmade. I will say this: I don't want to give trillions and trillions of dollars. I don't want to lose millions and millions of jobs. Mr Trump called climate change a hoax in November 2012 when he sent a tweet stating, The concept of global warming was created ...

Another global financial crisis is due: it could start in Italy

    History suggests that the world is about due for another financial crisis. One of the places it might start, according to a growing number of indicators, is Italy. Many of the ingredients are there. A pile of questionable debt. Weak banks. An erratic government. And a sizable economy able to inflict collateral damage outside Italian borders. Bond investors, always good for a coldblooded appraisal of a country’s solvency, have been sounding the alarm. The Rome government’s populist spending plans, widely regarded in financial circles as reckless, have caused market interest rates on Italian debt to spike, threatening to create a so-called doom loop that would ripple through the struggling economy. The proposed budget has exposed the seams in Italy’s governing coalit...

What’s known about Saudi journalist’s disappearance

    Saudi journalist Jamal Khashoggi disappeared almost two weeks ago while on a visit to the Saudi Consulate in Istanbul. His disappearance has sparked an international uproar involving the kingdom, Turkey and the United States that remains unresolved. Mr Khashoggi, a Washington Post contributor, had written columns critical of Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman, the kingdom’s war in Yemen and its crackdown on activists and businessmen. Turkish officials say they fear a team of Saudi agents killed and dismembered Mr Khashoggi, and they have released surveillance footage of the alleged perpetrators and mysterious movements outside the consulate on October 2, the day he entered. The kingdom says the allegations are baseless but has offered no evidence Mr Khashoggi ...
