The 1933 separation of commercial and investment banking in the US weakened the financial power complex (Arrighi, 1994). While the fossil and livestock agribusiness power complexes maintained their influence, a digital power complex emerged alongside platform-based business models (Srnicek, 2017). The GFC shifted power within the financial power complex from banks to asset managers (Braun, 2021; Haldane, 2014). The fossil power complexFollowing the GFC, economic and political factors prompted caution within the fossil power complex. This fossil-based development path is reinforced by increasingly harsh state repression against climate activists and by climate research that underestimates emissions and overestimates the potential of negative-emission technologies (Achakulwisut et al., 2023; Stoddard et al., 2021; Anderson, 2015; Bukold, 2023; Dyke et al., 2021).

After two-and-a-half disappointing seasons at Old Trafford, Sancho is now showing flashes of the form which convinced United to part with £73million back in 2021. "So let's say this: yesterday he played very good and he's a very good player," said the Dutchman. "Yesterday he showed why Manchester United bought him and he showed he represents a high value for Manchester United, which is good. I'm happy for Jadon, for the performance yesterday and we'll see what is going to happen in the future." Dortmund and Sancho will play in a Champions League final if they draw or win in the second leg against PSG next week.

President Joe Biden Thursday addressed recent campus unrest during a statement from the White House. Photo by Chris Kleponis/UPIMay 2 (UPI) -- President Joe Biden on Thursday addressed pro-Palestinian protests on college campuses throughout the nation as hundreds of protesters have been arrested. Biden said the campus pro-Palestinian protests are protected as long as they are peaceful, but he said violent protests are not protected. "As president I will always defend free speech but I will also stand up for the rule of law," Biden said in a brief address from the White House. He said vandalism, trespassing, breaking windows, shutting down campuses, forcing the cancelation of classes and graduation are not peaceful protests.

Sarah Benn, a retired GP, has been sanctioned by the General Medical Council (GMC) for multiple breaches of a court order while engaging in peaceful climate protests. For younger doctors this verdict sends a bleak message. Not only will this decision further undermine our trust in the regulator, but it serves as an unwelcome deterrent to practising clinicians engaging in climate activism. The public, and indeed younger clinicians, may find solace and inspiration in witnessing senior medical professionals speaking out about climate inaction. Instead, the regulator should reconsider urgently the decision to pursue action against doctors engaging in peaceful climate activism while it’s not too late, even if those doctors break the law.

UK hot weather maps show the country sizzling in a 20C scorcher as far north as Scottish Highlands.

Jurgen Klopp will leave Liverpool in the summer after nine years in chargeJurgen Klopp is unlikely to be the only high-profile figure leaving Liverpool this summer, with a number of players expected to follow him out the door. While Liverpool have already moved to secure Klopp's successor, they will need to be active in other areas to replace players who could also leave in the summer. Joel Matip is yet to be offered a new deal by Liverpool despite nearing the end of his current agreement. Veteran goalkeeper Adrian, who has failed to make a competitive appearance for Liverpool this season, also looks set to depart when his contract runs out in the summer. Liverpool could also part ways with a couple of players who are tied down to contracts beyond the end of this season.

Voters in England and Wales will cast ballots for mayors, council members and police commissioners on Thursday. And while the elections will, of course, focus on local issues like garbage collection and public safety, this vote is expected to have broader significance. Local elections, by their nature, are about who leads communities and ensures the delivery of certain public services. The Conservatives face a fierce challenge from the opposition Labour Party, led by Keir Starmer. About one-third of England’s council seats are being contested on Thursday, and 10 mayoral seats in major English metro areas, home to about a third of Britain’s population, are also up for election.

Carlos Alcaraz’s hopes of becoming the first player to win three straight Madrid Open titles came undone as the second seed was beaten in front of his home crowd 4-6, 6-3, 6-2 by the Russian seventh seed, Andrey Rublev, in the quarter-finals on Wednesday. It will be Rublev’s first semi-final in Madrid. The 26-year-old had entered the tournament on a four-match losing streak, including defeats in Miami, Monte Carlo and Barcelona. “Maybe this week is a relief but then next week we go back to the same … so better not to think this way because when you start to think: ‘Oh, how good everything is’. That’s what happened at the beginning of the season,” he said.
