Why you should build a capsule wardrobe

    The illusive capsule wardrobe. A fashion tool meant to destress, declutter and style-up your life the crème de la crème of clothes to suit you. We hear the term thrown around a lot, but what exactly is a capsule wardrobe? And how do we even begin going about creating one for ourselves? What is a capsule wardrobe? The definition of a capsule wardrobe is a collection of clothes and accessories that only include items considered essential, with quality over quantity being of upmost importance. While the number of items in a capsule wardrobe varies, it's normally around 24 to 36 pieces, spanning across clothing, jewellery, accessories and shoes. Seemingly simple, this deceptively small number can be hard to achieve, and deciding what makes the cut is an important pr...

Anti-Semitic incidents in UK at record high

    Jewish community leaders and politicians have condemned a third successive year with a record number of antisemitic incidents. Last year, 1,652 incidents, a 16% increase on 2017, were logged by the Community Security Trust, which has monitored antisemitism for 35 years and provides security to the UK Jewish community. The CST said the spread of incidents throughout the year, with more than 100 a month, indicated a general atmosphere of intolerance and prejudice. However, there were also spikes related to events in Gaza and the argument over antisemitism in the Labour party. The biggest number of incidents were in April and May (151 and 182 respectively), when scores of Palestinians were killed and hundreds injured in protests at the border fence between Gaza and I...

German antitrust authorities restrict Facebook data use

    German antitrust authorities ruled Thursday against Facebook combining user data from different sources, saying it was exploiting its position as a dominant social media company in violation of European regulations. The Federal Cartel Office, or Bundeskartellamt, said Facebook was guilty of "exploitative abuse" by forcing users to agree allow it to collect data from other Facebook-owned services like WhatsApp and Instagram, as well as third-party websites through the "Like" or "Share" features, and assign it to a user's Facebook account. On the one hand there is a service provided to users free of charge, Cartel Office president Andreas Mundt said. On the other hand, the attractiveness and value of the advertising spaces increase with the amount and detail of user d...

Third hitman didn’t escape UK

    A third Russian agent involved in the Novichok attack on Sergei Skripal is believed to have aborted his planned exit from Britain. The Russian military intelligence officer, using the false name Sergey Fedotov, travelled to the UK on the same day as the two hitmen who carried out the attempted assassination in Salisbury. Fedotov was booked onto the same flight back to Moscow with the would-be assassins but checked off the plane before its departure, according to reports on Wednesday night. Why he checked off the plane was not immediately clear but it raised the prospect he remained in the country after the nerve agent attack in March last year. Fedotov’s real identity remains unclear and his role in the attack is not known. Speaking to the Telegraph, an unnamed s...

EU not budging after talks with PM

    European Commission president Jean-Claude Juncker has told Theresa May during robust but constructive talks that the European Union will not renegotiate the Brexit deal. He added that the bloc was ready to work more on the accompanying political declaration of EU-UK new ties after Brexit, which is seperate to the withdrawal agreement. A joint statement said Mrs May raised various options to address MPs' concerns about the Irish border backstop and that the two agreed their teams would work together on whether a way through can be found. The statement said: The discussion was robust but constructive. Despite the challenges, the two leaders agreed that their teams should hold talks as to whether a way through can be found that would gain the broadest possible suppor...
