Liam Gallagher says a lot of things, but his latest take couldn’t be more misjudged. Oasis’ Live ’27 Tour was announced last month after plenty of speculation and following the Britpop band’s highly successful Live ‘25 Tour. Due to frenzied demand, the upcoming tour – which includes dates across mainland Europe – has been expanded to 42 dates, which are now all sold out. So far, only Richard Ashcroft has been confirmed as support for their forthcoming shows, and we know of one act who won’t be joining them… The gobby Oasis frontman has said that the Irish band Fontaines…
During a government press conference earlier in the day, Minister for Small Businesses Serge Papin said officials were working on “coordination between investigators and online platforms” to identify the individuals behind suspicious listings. A specific protocol is expected to be put in place, according to a government source speaking to POLITICO.

Professional chefs swapped their knives for boxing gloves at a food festival in the French Alps, where they had just 20 minutes to coach amateur cooks through making a soufflé omelette.

But now, rather than being able to sustain and scale up that assistance, we’re actually having to reduce it,” Shaun Hughes, the WFP’s country director, told AFP…

Published on 19/10/2026 – 16:27 GMT+2 Norway is set to introduce a social media ban for children under 16, with the government announcing on Monday that it is finalising legislation to be submitted to parliament by the end of the year. The proposed restrictions will also cover potentially harmful online games and messaging services, beyond conventional social media platforms, the government said in a statement.
