Donald Trump should 'take his head out of his phone and social media for a bit', an Iranian military source has warned. Speaking to the semi-official Tasnim news agency, the source also said Iran is preparing to unleash "new surprises" in the coming days. The US president had given Iran a 48-hour deadline on Saturday to remove any block on the Strait of Hormuz key trade route, through which around 20% of the world’s oil passes. He threatened to target Iran’s energy infrastructure if the demand is not met. In a conversation on Sunday night, the Sir Keir Starmer and the US president agreed reopening the strait was “essential” to stabilise a global energy market that had seen oil prices rocket since Trump began his joint campaign with Israel against Iran.

When I arrived in London, phone theft was something I thought of as urban folklore - the kind of grim anecdote you hear, shake your head at and file away under 'thankfully not me'. Without bumping into me, without drawing attention, without me feeling a thing - he removed my phone from my pocket. Within a flash, I became one of London's thousands of phone theft victims. In 2019, 91,481 phone thefts were reported to the police, before numbers fell to 55,820 in 2020 during pandemic restrictions. Indeed, phone theft is not just about losing an object.

'I would fiddle, and play with one hair at a time, and it felt nice to pull it out - so I'd pull it out, and then discard the hair on the floor, and I just couldn't stop. 'Once I'd started having noticeable bald spots and my parents were worried about it, that's when I started doing it in secret. 'I knew I was doing it but I didn't know why I was doing it, so I didn't say anything to start with.' It wasn't until she was confronted by her brother in her twenties that Laura decided to try and do something about the hair pulling, spending thousands on therapy. I talked to them about it, and they put me on a list for some therapy and suggested some Prozac.

Esker House’s 'Purple Hand' campaign continues to expandThe Purple Hand campaign developed by Esker House Domestic Abuse Support Service, continues to go from strength to strength and has now been rolled out in Kerry. Developed under the Esker Project, the campaign equips organisations with the knowledge and confidence to recognise abuse, respond safely, and refer individuals to specialist supports. Purple Hand was born from a need to make homes and communities safer for victims and survivors of gender-based violence, not just in emergencies, but in everyday moments. Since its launch, more than 500 Purple Hand Champions have been trained across over 60 organisations, including emergency services, sporting clubs, community centres, healthcare teams, local businesses, and state agencies. Last year, the campaign partnered with both the Sheraton Athlone Hotel and the Hodson Bay Hotel, while local crèches and early years providers have also embraced the Purple Hand Champion training.

Over the last 10 years, there have been 73 vehicle-related deaths on farms, according to the Health and Safety Authority (HSA). The HSA will commence a national farm safety inspection campaign on March 23, focusing on the safe use of tractors, machinery, quad bikes, and other work vehicles on farms. The main causes of death from farm vehicles are being crushed, struck, pinned under or falling from a vehicle. Being entangled in a power take-off, crushed under a machine part, caught in a machine mechanism, crushed between vehicles, and struck by a machine object are the main causes of death via farm machinery. We are asking all farmers and contractors to complete their farm safety risk assessment and to put the correct controls in place.”For further information on farm vehicle and machinery safety, visit the HSA website.

Geopolitical conflict is now taking the spotlight and just 10 per cent now see an AI bubble as the main tail risk. Photograph: Kirill Kudryavtsev/AFP via GettyUS president Donald Trump’s military actions have given investors something more immediate to worry about than an AI bubble. One month on and those fears have receded, with geopolitical conflict taking the spotlight and just 10 per cent now seeing an AI bubble as the main tail risk. Asked if AI stocks are in a bubble, 51 per cent say no, 38 per cent say yes. Rising prices invariably go hand in hand with rising bubble fears, but there’s been little of that lately, with each of the so-called magnificent seven stocks down in 2026.

British socialite and Real Housewives star Caroline Stanbury has returned to Dubai, insisting 'there's no place like home'. She added: 'I know that people are second-guessing choices, like, will I feel okay to go back to the Middle East? It's given me so many good opportunities and memories and things like that, but I don't consider it safer than living where I live, the Middle East. In fact, I would say the Middle East where I am is still safer than America today. And that just doesn't exist in the Middle East.

How far, nervous clergy wondered, would King Charles III want to go? Prince William is an intensely private man and, like most of us, wants to keep his faith to himself. Back then, I wrote that Prince William was, in the words of a senior aide, ‘not instinctively comfortable in a faith environment’. Prince William has not been visited by a flash of light like St Paul on the road to Damascus. Prince William has zero wish to shoulder his destiny any sooner than he absolutely has to.
