Suella Braverman’s decision to defect to Reform UK is not just another blow to Kemi Badenoch’s attempt to stabilise the Conservatives after their 2024 defeat. It also changes what Reform is being judged on.
As Immigration and Customs Enforcement, or ICE, agents continued to use aggressive and sometimes violent methods to make arrests in its mass deportation campaign, including breaking down doors in Minneapolis homes, a bombshell report from the Associated Press on Jan. 21, 2026, said that an internal ICE memo – acquired via a whistleblower – asserted that immigration officers could enter a home without a judge’s warrant. That policy, the report said, constituted “a sharp reversal of longstanding guidance meant to respect constitutional limits on government searches.”
À chaque élection présidentielle, des promesses sont faites, suscitant l’espoir des citoyens, avant qu’ils ne soient déçus. Or l’analyse des mandats présidentiels entre 1995 et 2022 montre que le respect (ou le non-respect) des promesses de campagne n’a aucun impact mesurable sur la popularité des présidents. La dynamique espoir-déception est systématique. Comment expliquer ce phénomène ?
The Trump administration’s recent surge of more than 3,000 federal agents to Minneapolis and St. Paul, Minnesota, is creating ripple effects for students, teachers and parents that go well beyond ongoing protests against Immigration and Customs Enforcement and Customs and Border Protection. These protests escalated after an ICE agent shot and killed Renee Nicole Good on Jan. 7, 2026.
Valentino, who died on Monday at 93, leaves a lasting legacy full of celebrities, glamour and, in his words, knowing what women want: “to be beautiful”.
The Italian fashion powerhouse has secured his dream of making a lasting impact, outliving Karl Lagerfeld and Yves Saint Laurent.
In an extraordinary escalation of his bid to claim Greenland, US President Donald Trump has threatened eight European countries – Denmark, Sweden, Norway, Finland, Great Britain, France and Germany and the Netherlands – with a 10% tariff on all goods coming into the United States from February 1 until he is able to buy the semi-autonomous Danish territory. That tariff will then increase to 25% on June 1.
One year after Donald Trump’s second inauguration, a pattern emerges. Across dozens of executive orders, agency memos, funding decisions and enforcement changes, the administration has weakened federal civil rights law and the foundations of the country’s racially inclusive democracy.
L’intelligence artificielle remet profondément en cause la raison d’être des médias et leur modèle d’affaires. Leur survie pourrait passer par une rapide réflexion sur ce qui fait leur cœur de métier, à l’image de la politique suivie par le New York Times. Au risque de sombrer dans des offres très low cost ou de devenir des fournisseurs des géants de l’IA.
Le procès en appel dans l’affaire des assistants parlementaires européens du Front national (Rassemblement national, depuis 2018) a débuté ce mardi 13 janvier à Paris. En première instance, Marine Le Pen avait été condamnée à quatre ans d’emprisonnement pour détournement de fonds publics. Une peine d’inéligibilité de cinq ans avait également été prononcée, compromettant sa candidature à la présidentielle de 2027. Avant le jugement en appel, on constate un affaiblissement politique de Marine Le Pen et une montée en puissance de Jordan Bardella. Quelles sont les perspectives pour le RN à moins de deux ans de la présidentielle ? Entretien avec le politiste Luc Rouban.
Despite public support in the U.S. for deposing Venezuelan leader Nicolás Maduro, President Donald Trump is unlikely to find that level of support for fighting an actual war in that country.
Even as Trump tries to work through Delcy Rodríguez, Maduro’s vice president and now the acting leader of the country, to manage Venezuela, there are echoes of President George W. Bush in Iraq with Trump saying that the United States will “run” Venezuela and “nurse it back to health” with Venezuelan oil wealth. None of that – which requires a lot of control by Washington and a major presence on the ground – can or will happen without a significant commitment of U.S. military forces, however, which Trump hasn’t ruled out.
In a small mining town in South Africa’s Limpopo province, young people are showing worrying signs of diseases that were once thought to affect only older adults.
These include type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, obesity and insulin resistance. This is not unique to Limpopo or South Africa. It reflects a global trend, where young adults in many low- and middle-income countries are increasingly experiencing early-onset metabolic diseases due to rapid urbanisation, lifestyle changes, unhealthy diets and reduced physical activity.
L’arrestation du président vénézuélien Nicolas Maduro à la suite d’une opération états-unienne constitue un événement géopolitique d’ampleur. Mais elle dépasse le cadre diplomatique : elle s’est immédiatement transformée en crise informationnelle.
The so-called world order and the international rule of law are both officially dead in the wake of operation “absolute resolve”, the US infiltration of Venezuela to capture its president Nicolás Maduro.
It is true that both have been sick for some time – and Venezuela is a demonstration of this. Maduro was condemned by foreign leaders for illegally seizing power as long ago as 2013 – years before Donald Trump even became president. No concrete action was ever taken.
Footage of a handcuffed Nicolás Maduro being escorted to a Brooklyn detention center will come as uncomfortable viewing for political leaders in Havana.
“Cuba is going to be something we’ll end up talking about,” said President Donald Trump just hours after the Jan. 3, 2026, operation to seize the Venezuelan president. Secretary of State Marco Rubio echoed Trump’s warning: “If I lived in Havana and I was in the government, I’d be concerned.”
