      ‘Cruel’ asylum barge plan rejected in London, Sadiq Khan tells Braverman

      The Tory government’s plan to place asylum seekers in a barge at an east London dock has been rejected, Sadiq Khan has told Suella Braverman. The London mayor urged the home secretary to rule out use of barges in the capital – as he attacked the Rishi Sunak government’s “cruel and inhumane” policy to deal with migrants arriving by small boats. Writing to Ms Braverman, Mr Khan said he backed the decision by the Royal Docks Management Authority (RoDMA) to reject an application for the use of King George V Dock as a berth for asylum seekers. Warning her not to try to overrule the port authority, the Labour mayor said: “I would urge you in the strongest possible terms to abandon the government’s plans to accommodate those seeking asylum…

      Canada battles hundreds of wildfires as smoke still chokes major cities

      Wildfire crews in Canada continue to battle hundreds of blazes across the country as air quality in major cities remains poor and other regions brace for intense heat. And as the country burns, experts warn Canada needs to do a better job of readying its communities in areas increasingly prone to destructive blazes. More than half of the 414 fires across the country are out of control, said the emergency preparedness minister, Bill Blair – with the hottest and driest months still to come. Paul Kovacs, the executive director of the Institute for Catastrophic Loss Reduction at Western University, said Canada was increasingly seeing two wildfire peaks: one in the late summer, and one in the spring. “When the snow melts early…

      Saudi Arabia’s golf coup highlights Biden’s human rights bind

      When Saudi Arabia’s Public Investment Fund (PIF) signed a deal this week to merge with North America’s top body in charge of professional golf, it signaled for some the completion of a U.S.-aided rehabilitation of Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman, five years after the murder of journalist Jamal Khashoggi that U.S. spy agencies believe he authorized. The deal – a three-way merger of U.S.-based PGA Tour, DP World Tour and the rival PIF-backed LIV circuit – was announced just as Washington’s top diplomat Antony Blinken landed in the kingdom. President Joe Biden had vowed to make the de facto Saudi ruler, known as MbS, “a pariah” after Khashoggi’s killing, which the crown prince has denied ordering, but nearly a year…

      Supreme Court rules in favor of Black Alabama voters in unexpected defense of Voting Rights Act

      The Supreme Court on Thursday issued a surprising 5-4 ruling in favor of Black voters in a congressional redistricting case from Alabama, with two conservative justices joining liberals in rejecting a Republican-led effort to weaken a landmark voting rights law. Chief Justice John Roberts and Justice Brett Kavanaugh aligned with the court’s liberals in affirming a lower-court ruling that found a likely violation of the Voting Rights Act in an Alabama congressional map with one majority Black seat out of seven districts in a state where more than one in four residents is Black. The state now will have to draw a new map for next year’s elections. The decision was keenly anticipated for its potential effect on control of the closely divided U.S. House of Representatives.…

      Rishi Sunak is a spineless and selfish prime minister

      Maya Angelou famously said ‘when people show you who they are, believe them.’ But even though I know what type of man Rishi Sunak is, I was still outraged at my latest discovery.   It seems the jet-setting Prime Minister is continuing his preference for helicopter travel, taking an RAF chopper from London to Dover on Monday, a journey of just over an hour by train’.  To me, this shows that he has no sense of value for taxpayer money, no principles, and no ideas for Britain The news of Sunak’s travel arrangements comes just months after it was reported that his private swimming pool placed so much strain on the local electricity network that he had to pay to expand the National Grid capacity.   It’s a sign…

      Forest recognition for Papua tribe raises hopes for climate

      Indigenous peoples are increasingly recognised as the most effective custodians of the world’s remaining forests. Yustina Ogoney has been head of her district since 2017 East Bintuni Regency, Indonesia – Striding barefoot through the emerald green jungle with a long wooden bow slung over his shoulder, Josep Ogoney points up at the tropical vegetation surrounding him and his remote riverside village. “This is my pasar,” said the 37-year-old, using the Indonesian word for a market. “I can take animals to eat, plants for medicine and wood to build my home.” But this stretch of pristine rainforest is rather different from conventional markets. “It’s all free,” grinned Josep, who is a member of the Ogoney, an Indigenous clan from Indonesia who inhabit the…
