After a helter-skelter 24 hours — with calls for the PM to quit and another senior resignation from the heart of No10 — has Keir Starmer done enough to convince his party he is the man for the future, or has he simply just bought time? Sam and Anne reflect on a tumultuous day in Westminster and look ahead to challenges facing the Prime Minister in the coming weeks and months. Away from the psychodrama, the duo consider where this leaves Wes Streeting after he voluntarily shared his messages and WhatsApp’s with Peter Mandelson — it could lead to a…
Good morning, I’m Mared Gwyn writing from Brussels. Welcome to Tuesday. EU leaders are raising the stakes ahead of their informal gathering on Thursday, with both European Commission chief Ursula von der Leyen and French President Emmanuel Macron unveiling separate pitches for a major overhaul of Europe’s economic doctrine over the past 24 hours.

By Jennifer McDermott with AP Published on 10/02/2026 – 8:20 GMT+1 Olympic fans came to Cortina with heavy winter coats and gloves. Those coats were unzipped Sunday and gloves pocketed as snow melted from rooftops – signs of a warming world. “I definitely thought we’d be wearing all the layers,” says Jay Tucker, who came from Virginia to cheer on Team USA and bought hand warmers and heated socks in preparation. “I don’t even have gloves on.” The timing of winter, the amount of snowfall and temperatures are all less reliable and less predictable because Earth is warming at a record rate, says…
The tourism economy flourished, but it came at the cost of local residents, who were ejected from apartments hastily converted into short-term rentals and priced out of their local tascas. Home prices across the country jumped more than 124 percent between 2015 and 2025, and the median price-per-square meter in Lisbon now hovers around €5,914. “There are pluses and minuses to tourism, and it’s helped rehabilitate many of our cities,” said Sérgio Sousa Pinto, a Socialist Party lawmaker who served in the national parliament from 2011 to 2025. “But that’s not top of mind for a family that can no…

Die Ukraine droht im Lärm der globalen Krisen unterzugehen. Während auf internationalen Panels über Iran, China oder Venezuela diskutiert wird, rutscht der russische Angriffskrieg gegen die Ukraine auf der Agenda nach unten, auch kurz vor der Münchner Sicherheitskonferenz. In dieser Folge steht die Frage im Zentrum, wie viel Aufmerksamkeit dem Krieg noch bleibt und was das für Europas Sicherheit bedeutet. Im 200-Sekunden-Interview spricht Gordon Repinski mit dem ukrainischen Botschafter in Berlin, Oleksij Makejew, über die Erwartungen an die Sicherheitskonferenz, die Rolle der USA unter Präsident Donald Trump und den Druck auf Europa. Außerdem: Das Klimaziel 2030 wackelt. Der Entwurf des…
Forty-eight EU lawmakers added a passage in support of the digital euro in an annual report on the European Central Bank (ECB) that will be voted on Tuesday.

Unlike everyday card payments, where payments are “private”, the digital euro would allow citizens a direct use of…
