But, rather than receiving a formal invite to meet Trump, Farage was in fact invited to Mar-a-Lago by a member of the club, according to multiple people briefed on the matter They said Farage had hoped he would be able to catch Trump for a conversation as the US president was scheduled to travel to Mar-a-Lago that evening. However, Trump had a change in his itinerary and decided to stay instead in Doral, about an hour`s drive away The Reform leader's failure to secure an audience with the US president underscores a weakening of ties between the two populist leaders who famously formed a close friendship in the vears before and after the 2016

Massive humiliation for Farage, who tipped off the UK press that he was flying to Florida to have dinner with Trump... only for Trump to decide he had more interesting things to do when Nigel arrived.

Those of us who were around in the ‘70’s remember How this played out last time - even if we were still kids.

here's a photo of Hegseth's gesture (Saul Loeb/Getty)

New video footage shows a US Tomahawk missile hitting an IRGC facility in Minab, Iran, on Feb 28, showing for the first time that the US struck the area. The footage also shows smoke already rising from the vicinity of the girls’ school, where 175 people were reportedly killed, including children.

Stand out, but not in a good way.

This is one result of the 7-year-long, £10 million Chilcot Inquiry: a comprehensive, detailed & crucial guide to avoiding another disastrous war like Iraq. You can understand why Tony Blair ignores its lessons, but every other warmonger in the UK?

Rather disappointingly my own MP thinks that continuing to allow the Freedom of Information Act to not apply to NATS because of the involvement of the private sector is perfectly acceptable, regardless of the fact they do perform an important public function.

Someone needs to put an arm round his shoulder and say to him gently "It's over, Tony, it's over".

You’ve got to remember for the journos who write these reams of bollocks about the ‘special relationship’ between the UK and US, their concern is not the interests of either country, or really the fate of Starmer or Trump, but ‘will the boss not sack me. Please give me a bonus’

The tone in that piece is wrong. I don’t want to see a govt. “fighting” I want to see it doing is job in a methodical and considered and compassionate way. This obsession with “hard work” has to stop. Just “ work” will be fine. Not supporting those that need it is economically illiterate.

So dark and unhinged. The Trump regime is dropping thousands of bombs for clicks.

If you’re not horrified by this you have lost the thread.

It seems important that public exams have a level playing field and no pupil should be disadvantaged by using lower grade tech. Paper and pencil seem to provide equality to all pupils.

It was obsolete and under spec’d when it was provided.

How many minutes will it take the US to hand on any Ukraine anti-drone tech insights to Russia?

Same here in Suffolk. We do have solar panels and a battery system that take some of the pain though.

The Most Chilling Detail in the U.S. Attack on an Iranian Naval Ship The Iranian warship was taking part in an international exercise with many other countries—including the United States.

"We aren't following any stupid rules of engagement." Hegseth orders a submarine to sink an unarmed Iranian naval vessel in the Indian Ocean to participate in India's peace exercises. A war crime? Well, the US tried, convicted and imprisoned German naval officers for doing roughly the same thing.

Not getting the take up they wanted?

I love watching people use LLMs in public. They’ll reply to a breaking news article and say “@grok is this true?” Babe where do you think it’s about to pull its answer from

- AI training isn’t ‘learning’ and shouldn’t be treated as such

The House of Lords has been absolutely consistent on this, and they are totally right. Will the government listen?

The House of Lords Digital & Communications Committee just published their report on AI, copyright & the creative industries, and their conclusions could not be clearer.

ICO writes to Meta over 'concerning' AI smart glasses report Videos, including of glasses-wearers using the toilet or having sex, are sometimes reviewed by a Kenya-based subcontractor.

Last year when I was checking into a hotel, the desk person was wearing Meta glasses. I kindly asked them to take them off. They were annoyed. I said, “I do not consent to you looking at my credit card and ID with Meta glasses on.” My instincts were correct: www.bbc.com/news/article...
