Why won't Keir Starmer engage with Commonwealth on reparations?
Representatives of Gambia, Ghana and Lesotho have called for reparations to be made, as have indigenous leaders from Australia, New Zealand, The Bahamas and Canada. Jamaica's sports minister, Olivia Grange, said in 2021: "Our African ancestors were forcibly removed from their home and suffered unparalleled atrocities to carry out forced labour to the benefit of the British Empire. For the most part though, the response of the British state has been stonewalling at best and outright denial at worst. The Commonwealth, too, is starting to look like it could soon be consigned to the dustbin of history. The sun may finally be setting on the British Empire but the Prime Minister, it appears, is not willing to risk alienating those prepared to rage against the dying of the light.

They got to a junior semi-final as well so confidence is high in their club.”Asked about the buzz of preparing for a county final, Kelly replied: “Honestly, I love playing.

Rise of the introvert economy: When did cancelling plans become cool?
I absolutely live for nice plans, and for seeing people that I like. “We know both human connection and a sense of control are important for our mental wellbeing. Cancelling plans is a way of saying ‘I’m in control’. Dr Barber stresses that at least some human connection is important. So while many may joke about cancelling plans, there is a yearning for human connection, even if it’s masked by anxiety.

Leinster pull off fine win over Connacht
Leinster pull off fine win over ConnachtPA Sport StaffLeinster made it back-to-back interprovincial wins as the United Rugby Championship leaders overcame Connacht 33-12 at Dexcom Stadium. Individual errors made it a night to forget for Connacht, who crossed the whitewash through Sean O’Brien and replacement Cathal Forde. Leinster captain James Ryan had a try ruled out for accidental offside, before Connacht edged their way downfield despite some small kicking gains into a tricky wind. Connacht stalwart Denis Buckley put O’Brien over in the 33rd minute, yet Leinster added a third try before the interval as Snyman picked up a loose ball to score. Deegan powered over five minutes after the restart, as the flanker turned Byrne’s low bouncing pass into a five-pointer.
