Some 10,000 American troops are currently based in Poland. Mr. Rutte spoke with urgency on Wednesday about the need to step up NATO’s game. The episode underscores the need for NATO to beef up its defenses against modern drone warfare and learn the lessons from Ukraine. Numerous NATO countries believe that once the fighting in Ukraine ends, Russia would be prepared to test NATO itself in the next five years, said Andrius Kubilius, the European Union defense commissioner and former Lithuanian prime minister. And they saw the influx of Russian drones into Poland as a provocation and a warning.

Robinson uses his experience of many secular organisations to suggest what professional integrity is or, at least, should be: “integrity is focused on identity, involving responsibility for critical self- reflection, mutual accountability . Robinson acknowledges that there was much criticism at the time that Tutu had been too soft on unrepentant perpetrators. There are too many lists for my liking, the price of the book is outrageous, and Professor Robinson could have used less jargon. This is a book written by an expert for Churches to absorb peaceably in a changing and complex world.

A Times article by Gabrielle Weiniger about the Palestinian terror attack in Jerusalem earlier in the week that killed six, (“Jerusalem shooting: six killed in attack at bus stop are named“, Sept. 8)m included the following claim:The incident marks the first serious terrorism attack in the city since the beginning of the Gaza war.

Listen to David read this articleSome 30 years ago I found myself working with David Pritchard, a director who turned the late Keith Floyd into a TV star. He had first encountered Floyd, glass in hand, chaotically running a Bristol restaurant and coaxed him into cooking on television, often, it appeared, semi-sloshed, on a trawler or a gale swept hillside or, memorably, in a field of ostriches. More than 20 television series ran with Floyd at the helm, and one of the attractions was the obvious tension between him and his director. One day, while we were editing a programme, David walked in fresh from filming with Floyd. Then he leant closer and told me he didn't have to worry: "Rick will save me."

In its trademark application, the firm said the name was tied to amusement park services and hotels. In August, Universal also applied to use "Universal Studios Grand Hotel" in connection with entertainment services, hotels, and restaurants, according to the BBC.

Yet Reform UK has no education spokesperson and apart from Nigel Farage claiming that universities are “poisoning the minds” of students, higher education received little direct attention at the party’s annual conference in Birmingham last week. But by speaking to the delegates mingling in the cavernous National Exhibition Centre, Times Higher Education was able to gather some insight into what a Reform UK government could mean for universities. Andrea Jenkyns, the Reform UK mayor of Greater Lincolnshire and former Conservative minister for skills, said she wanted to end the “snobbery” of universities and push for higher education to “get back to basics”. But, according to Menon, that might, in reality, mean more, rather than less, political heat on universities under a Reform government. “My fear is that because of the way the electorate splits – which basically means that people with a degree don’t support Reform – universities start to look like soft targets for [Reform] in the same way that they do for Trump,” he said.

Prince Harry met with his father, King Charles III, in London on Wednesday, in what appeared to be the first step toward healing a rift that has sundered the British royal family since the prince and his American-born wife, Meghan, withdrew from royal duties and moved to the United States in 2020. A car carrying Harry, 40, was seen entering Clarence House, the king’s London residence, at 5:20 p.m. on a rainswept afternoon. Charles and his wife, Queen Camilla, had been staying at Balmoral Castle in Scotland earlier in the week, but returned to London, where the king also presided over an investiture ceremony at Clarence House on Wednesday, according to Buckingham Palace. But a palace official, speaking on condition of anonymity, said father and son had shared a private tea at Clarence House. The BBC reported that the session had lasted 55 minutes, somewhat longer than the 30 minutes that Harry spent with Charles in February 2024.
