Now I have
Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola says he wants to “prove” he can drag the club out of their current slump. City head to Anfield on Sunday to face Liverpool off the back of losing five consecutive matches in all competitions and tossing away a 3-0 lead to draw with Feyenoord in the Champions League on Tuesday. Defeat on Merseyside would leave them 11 points adrift of Arne Slot’s side in the Premier League table. Guardiola says in the present situation it is “unrealistic” to look at longer term targets like the possibility of winning the league title. Instead, he is […]Read more...

Arsenal vs Chelsea
Arsenal continue their difficult season run-in as they host Chelsea at the Emirates Stadium, with the hunt for the Premier League title remaining hot down the stretch. The Gunners have by far the toughest finishing fixture list of the three title contenders, with the north London derby looming on the weekend plus a visit to Old Trafford still to come. They cannot afford a single slip, as the Gunners do not control their own destiny in the title race and therefore must be near-perfect the rest of the way to ensure they capitalise on any slips by their rivals. Arsenal […]Read more...

The Premier League side will hear the recording after suggesting decisions may have gone against them because one of the VAR officials was a “Luton fan”. Nottingham Forest will be given the opportunity to privately hear the VAR audio connected to three penalty claims in their match against Everton last Sunday. It comes as Forest have risked Football Association and Premier League sanctions over their extraordinary response to the three rejected penalty appeals. The club said in a statement on Sunday they had “warned” Professional Game Match Officials Limited (PGMOL), the referees body, that VAR Stuart Attwell “was a Luton […]Read more...

Ghana’s household spending to hit
Ghana’s real household expenditure is expected to grow by 2.5% year-on-year in 2025, following a modest 1.1% increase in 2024. According to Fitch Solutions, this rise will push total household spending to GH¢129.7 billion—a 25.4% increase from the GH¢103.4 billion recorded in 2019 before the pandemic. The UK-based research firm attributed the projected expansion to easing inflation and improved cedi stability in 2025, creating room for a more accommodative monetary stance from the Bank of Ghana (BoG). “We will see an improvement in Ghanaian household spending over 2025, as households rally from elevated inflation and cedi weakness. Following the presidential […]Read more...

Tesla shares slump
Shares in electric car maker Tesla have slumped more than 9% after EU and UK sales fell by almost half in January. The drop in Tesla shares took the company’s valuation back below $1trn for the first time since November 2024.

Is the downfall
For months, Japan’s entertainment industry has been rocked by a scandal that unseated one of its most popular celebrities and put one of its biggest broadcasters at risk. But some believe it has also marked a turning point in how cases of sexual assault are perceived in Japan – where traditionally victims have been shamed into silence. At its heart was Masahiro Nakai, a household name and leading presenter for Fuji TV, one of the country’s biggest broadcasters. Nakai, who is also a former member of J-pop boy band SMAP, was accused of sexually assaulting a woman at a dinner […]Read more...

YouTuber’s ‘dirty’ comments
“Dirty.” “Perverted mind.” “Disgusting.” These were the words India’s Supreme Court used on Tuesday while granting interim protection from arrest to a popular YouTuber who has been in the eye of a storm in the country over the past week. The furore began after Ranveer Allahbadia, whose YouTube channel BeerBiceps has eight million followers, asked a contestant the question: “Would you rather watch your parents have sex every day for the rest of your life or join in once and stop it forever?” The comments, made on the show India’s Got Latent on 9 February, sparked massive outrage, police cases […]Read more...

Your kitchen sponge
We use them to clean the dishes we eat off, but your kitchen sponge is a damp, crumb-filled environment that is perfect for bacteria to thrive in. Should you opt for a washing up brush instead? Many species of bacteria know how to rough it out. Some thrive deep within the Earth’s crust, or inside boiling hydrothermal vents, and others even call frozen tundra their home. Ask most bacteria where they’d really like to live though, and a kitchen sponge would probably top the list. Yes, it turns out that the very tool we use to clean our plates and […]Read more...

Illegal and unseen:
Donald Trump has made the mass deportation of undocumented foreign nationals a key policy, with the US said to have identified about 18,000 Indian nationals it believes entered illegally. Last week Narendra Modi said India would take back its nationals who were in the US illegally, and also crack down on the “human trafficking ecosystem”. “These are children of very ordinary families, and they are lured by big dreams and promises,” he said during his visit to Washington. Now a new paper by Abby Budiman and Devesh Kapur from Johns Hopkins University has shed light on the numbers, demographics, entry methods, locations […]Read more...

South Africa: HIV
At a rural village in South Africa’s KwaZulu-Natal province, unemployed 19-year-old Nozuko Majola is trying to figure out if she has enough money for the one-hour ride to collect her much-needed HIV medication, usually delivered to her home that can’t be easily reached due to rough, untarred roads. Majola is one of millions of patients in South Africa affected by U.S. President Donald Trump’s global foreign aid freeze, raising worries about HIV patients defaulting on treatment, infection rates going up and eventually a rise in deaths. In 2024, think tank Human Sciences Research Council released figures showing that Majola’s province […]Read more...

Iran’s government hits
Tehran, Iran – Iranian authorities have again been cracking down on cryptocurrencies and online exchanges as the value of the national currency plummets in an economy in turmoil. Last month, the Central Bank of Iran (CBI) suddenly stopped rial payments in all cryptocurrency exchanges, leaving more than 10 million crypto users unable to spend rials on Bitcoin and other global online currencies. The goal was to counter further depreciation of the embattled national currency by stopping it from changing hands for foreign currencies. The crypto market grew significantly last year and leans towards a bullish 2025 as countless young Iranians […]Read more...

Apple boss says
Apple boss Tim Cook has said his company may have to change its diversity practices as the US legal landscape shifts. His comments came just minutes after a majority of shareholders rejected a proposal calling on the tech giant to consider ending its diversity policies, such as the use of race and sex in hiring decisions. Apple had urged shareholders to vote against the measure, which the company had argued was “inappropriately” trying “to micromanage” its business. The scrutiny of the firm comes as US President Donald Trump has called for an end to diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) programmes […]Read more...

UN biodiversity talks
Global talks to protect biodiversity have restarted with a call for humanity to come together to “sustain life on the planet” and overcome a fight over funding that caused the previous meeting last year to end in disarray. More than two years after a landmark deal on biodiversity – including a pledge to protect 30 percent of the world’s land and seas by 2030 – nations are still haggling over the money needed to reverse the destruction that scientists say threatens a million species. Negotiators meeting at the UN’s Food and Agriculture Organization headquarters in Rome are tasked with resolving […]Read more...

BP to slash
BP is expected to announce it will slash its renewable energy investments and instead focus on increasing oil and gas production. The energy giant will outline its strategy later following pressure from some investors unhappy its profits and share price have been much lower than its rivals. Shell and Norwegian company Equinor have already scaled back their plans to invest in green energy. Meanwhile US President Donald Trump’s “drill baby drill” comments have encouraged investment in fossil fuels and a move away from low carbon projects. Some shareholders and environmental groups have voiced concerns over any potential ramping up on […]Read more...
