Spain terror attacks: What we know

    Spanish police intensified a manhunt Friday for suspects behind two deadly vehicle attacks on civilians, shooting and killing five people wearing fake bomb belts who attacked a seaside resort and arresting four others believed linked to the carnage wrought on a Barcelona promenade. Spanish authorities said the back-to-back vehicle attacks Thursday afternoon and early Friday morning as well as a deadly explosion earlier this week in a house elsewhere in Catalonia — were related and the work of a large terrorist group. The Islamic State group quickly claimed responsibility for Europe's latest bout of extremist violence, which left 13 dead and 100 wounded after a van roared down Barcelona's historic Las Ramblas promenade on Thursday. Hours later, a blue Audi plowed into peopl...

MP wears burka in Parliament about Borka to be banned in the Australia

    The leader of the far-right One Nation party in Australia turned up to parliament wearing a burka to call for the traditional Islamic clothing to be banned. Pauline Hanson entered the Senate chamber for the daily question time in the black garment, drawing audible shocks from those inside. Ms Hanson’s stunt came as her party called for burkas to be banned in Australia over concerns about national security. However, attorney general George Brandis, the leader of the government in the Senate, told Ms Hanson that there would be no burka ban. Ms Hanson’s stunt did not go down well inside the chamber. He said: No, we will not be banning the burka. Senator Hanson, I’m not going to pretend to ignore the stunt that you have tried to pull today by arriving in the chamber dressed in...

Trump’s remarks have left some wondering if sticking

    President Donald Trump’s turnabout on the violence in Charlottesville, Virginia has rocked his administration, leading to rising speculation that some top officials may be looking for a way out. A parade of business executives broke ties with Trump on Wednesday, a day after he blamed white nationalists and counter-protesters in equal measure for the weekend clashes that left one woman dead. Now, frustrated aides could be next. Trump’s remarks have left some wondering if sticking by the president comes at too high a cost to their reputations. A lot of us joined this administration thinking we could bring to it the experience and expertise that the president didn’t have an opportunity to gain in his business career, and to encourage some restraint in what he says publicly an...

Brexit may not happen says Sir Vince Cable

    Sir Vince Cable has said he still believes there is a significant possibility that Brexit will not happen. The Liberal Democrat leader told an audience at the Edinburgh International Book Festival that he stood by the view that the UK might not leave the European Union (EU). Sir Vince said a combination of the politics of Brexit unravelling and the sheer practical difficulties could stop UK Government plans to leave the bloc. The former business secretary told the audience in the Scottish capital: I think there is more than a possibility that it may never happen. I'm not saying it definitely won't but there is a significant possibility. The MP for Twickenham, who lost his seat in 2015 but was reelected in this year's snap general election, said the Government was dependent...

Iranian missile facility under construction in Syria

    New imagery released by imageSat which operates Israel’s EROS-B satellite, reportedly show the first ever Scud missile factory being built inside wartorn Syria. The pictures from a site near Latakia on the Syrian-government controlled coastline resembles a missile plant in Tehran, Israeli media reports said on Tuesday. Experts told Channel 2 the sophisticated construction could not have been undertaken without Iranian experts operating inside Syria. They believe the facility, on which work began at some point last year, has both production and underground storage capabilities of long-range missiles which are capable of striking Israel. They believe it will be completed by the end of 2017. Donald Trump says Iran has helped commit unspeakable crimes in Syria Israel's main wo...

Britain’s most advanced warship ever to dock in home port for first time

    Britain's most advanced warship ever will arrive in her home dock today for the first time. The £3 billion HMS Queen Elizabeth is expected to arrive in Portsmouth on Wednesday, a day earlier than previously expected, after weather conditions had formerly prevented the exact date from being set. It is the largest aircraft carrier ever to be built in Britain, and is expected to be the Navy's flagship craft for at least 50 years. The 280-metre vessel weighs 65,000 tonnes but can travel up to 500 miles a day. It was previously forecast to reach its Hampshire base between August 17-22, after setting out from Scotland's Rosyth dockyard in June. More than 60 Royal Navy sailors and Royal Marines took part in a training exercise aboard the American USS George HW Bush earlier this m...

Korean War is now a real possibility because Donald Trump is so volatile and impulsive: warned the British government

    North Korean leader Kim Jong Un salutes at a parade in Pyongyang, North Korea. A new Korean War is now a real possibility, partly because Donald Trump is so volatile and impulsive, a leading think tank has warned the British government. Civil servants were urged by Malcolm Chalmers, Deputy Director General at the Royal United Services Institute, to begin preparations immediately for the possible outbreak of war between the US and North Korea. Tensions between the two countries have been steadily increasing in recent months, with Mr Trump most recently saying the US was “locked and loaded” in the face of North Korean missile threats against Guam. As a close ally of the US, the UK would most likely be asked to provide assistance in the event of a conflict on the Korean penin...

America’s far right stole the spotlight

    By their nature, fringe movements usually don't find the scalding hot center of the national spotlight. Last weekend's Unite the Right rally in Virginia was an extreme and informative exception. Around the nation, TV screens and social media feeds overflowed with Confederate flags, fascist symbolism and bloody images of violence as far-right groups brawled with anti-racism protesters on the streets of Charlottesville. Their white-power message was suddenly hard to ignore. What has happened since underscores a basic principle about the far-right in the United States: Attention is a double-edged sword for white nationalists and neo-Nazis, a tool of further empowerment and an implement of their ruin. Over the past two years, embracing the energy of Donald Trump's presidency, ...
