Manchester City are targeting an unprecedented double-treble this season after already winning two trophies - but Liverpool could still end the season with more silverware in Jurgen Klopp's final campaign. That keeps Liverpool on course to complete a domestic treble, as they are in the FA Cup quarter-finals and lead City at the top of the Premier League. And with Liverpool in the Europa League last-16, they are not hiding their ambition to win a quadruple - even if it wouldn't include the Champions League. Liverpool can still stop City from winning the league and FA Cup, but City defender John Stones insists "we can't let that happen." "Arsenal, Liverpool, the teams that have been pushing us and us pushing them for the trophies, it's working in our favour.

Victoria Beckham’s show at Paris fashion week was interrupted by protesters from the animal rights group People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (Peta), who invaded the runway to protest against her use of animal products. Protesters wore white T-shirts that read: 'Turn your back on animal skins' and 'Animals aren’t fabric'. They walked alongside models on the catwalk, holding up placards that read: 'Viva vegan leather'. The European president of the group said on Friday: 'No garment or accessory is worth violently slaughtering and skinning a sensitive and intelligent animal. We are urging Victoria Beckham to turn instead to the ethical and eco-friendly innovations available today, such as high-end leather made from apples, grapes, pineapples, mushrooms and more.'

Just before we got shut down, I posted a video by Shaun that condemned all the atrocities committed by both sides in Israel and Gaza (it didn’t dissuade the Islamist fanatic who got us censored). Cody thoroughly documents the genocide and lies perpetrated by the Israeli government. Don’t watch it you don’t want to be outraged by injustice. It just affirms my concern that Israel has become an evil rogue nation. And we still send them arms?

Plans for a new Indian takeaway in a Norfolk village have been rejected over fears of a ‘fat burg’ forming in the surrounding sewage network. Juber Ahmed made a bid to open the business in Kenninghall, near Diss, at 2 Market Place, the former home of the Twin Teapots cafe. The plans were met with objections from locals and the parish council, which raised concerns about the opening hours of the takeaway and its environmental impact. Kenninghall Parish Council said: “We feel these hours are unacceptable in terms of noise for local residents and volume of business traffic from outside the village. Four further objections were received from members of the public and Mr Ahmed was not granted permission for the development.

The Times described the speech as a “wake-up call” and “a sobering warning of the fragility of democracy”. “Now, however, the Prime Minister is promising to ‘face down the extremists who would tear us apart’, not with pandering but with leadership. Calling Mr Galloway’s victory a “dreadfully dark day for democracy”, the Daily Mail said the Prime Minister delivered a “crackdown on extremism … the nation was crying out to hear”. “Mr Sunak is right to insist they must do better,” it wrote, saying it was “a time when we all must stand up for British values”. It said turning things around is “a monumental task” but that Mr Sunak must back up his words.

The context in which I originally mentioned the cost of living crisis is extremely important, and it’s disappointing that it’s been presented in this way. The venues that gave us our careers in this industry are closing at terrifying rates because of rising cost of living and corporate greed. For the past few months we’ve been working on something with the Music Venues Trust to call for protection for independent venues and artists, but more on that another time.

Today Rishi Sunak has declared that democracy must be protected from protestors. To offer a little refresher on these fundamental concepts, democracy refers to governance by the people. In other words, we can look together at how to replace media manipulation with critical thinking skills, superiority/inferiority with equality and respect, and fear with courage. Critical thinking skills are essential for a healthy society. The prayer for democracy which I refer to isn’t an appeal to a transcendent authority (though you can see it that way if you want), but rather a direct experience of the listening heart.

Uber drivers operate predominantly under legislative framework for taxi drivers as entrepreneurs, 19/20 of interviewed Uber drivers were entrepreneurs. Uber drivers pay 10% VAT for all income and a 25% commission to Uber. We may assume that the majority of 600 000 taxi drivers in Russia aren’t employees of taxi parks, nor they are self-employed [58]. In Saint Petersburg taxi use has increased along platformisation but working conditions of the taxi drivers have changed in ambiguous ways. Long working hours were particularly prominent in St Petersburg, while in Helsinki and London driving Uber was also used as a flexible option.
