His brother struck a different tone. “You might have wondered what it would be like to sing this next song with 60,000, 70,000 of your fellow Oasis fans,” Noel Gallagher said, setting up “Don’t Look Back in Anger” as the night wound down. “Well, you're about to find out what that feeling is like.”After the show wrapped with fireworks, the familiar refrains of the band’s hits continued to ring out in volleys, as one group of fans after another tried to keep the vibe alive while they reluctantly headed to the exits.

The world’s largest sports pirating site, Streameast, is no more. The illegal streaming giant was terminated in Egypt after a sting operation, according to the Alliance for Creativity and Entertainment, one of the country’s largest antipiracy coalitions. It offered access to sports’ biggest events, including Europe’s football championships, the NFL, NBA, MLB, pay-per-view boxing and F1 races. Authorities confiscated devices, including laptops and smartphones thought to be operating the site, cash and several credit cards. All sites previously associated with Streameast will be redirected to ACE’s “watch legally” page, which provides links to authorized streaming video providers.

Britain’s most senior police officer has called for the government to change or clarify the law regarding free speech amid intense public debate over the arrest of an Irish comedian on suspicion of inciting violence against transgender people on social media. Mark Rowley, commissioner of the Metropolitan Police, which serves the London area, said his officers had been put in an “impossible position” in which laws were drawing them into “toxic culture-wars debates.”In a statement on Wednesday, Mr. Rowley said he had suggested to the government changes that would enable police to “limit the resources we dedicate to tackling online statements to those cases creating real threats in the real world.”Mr. Rowley was responding to criticism over the arrest of Graham Linehan, an Irish comedy writer and anti-transgender activist who was detained at Heathrow Airport on Monday. Mr. Linehan, who was a creator of the 1990s comedy series “Father Ted” and wrote and directed “The I.T. Crowd,” said he was arrested after landing at Heathrow, near London, on a flight from Arizona.

Their full statement reads: "Across the Lush business we share the anguish that millions of people feel seeing the images of starving people in Gaza, Palestine. "One thing Lush can currently send into Gaza is our love and a strong message that we stand in solidarity. This will take the form of halting business-as-usual by shutting our UK shops, website and factories for one day on Wednesday 3rd September 2025, with our shop windows displaying the message STOP STARVING GAZA – WE ARE CLOSED IN SOLIDARITY. However, we know that many of our customers share the same anxiety about the current situation in Gaza. "Whilst Lush is losing a day of takings, this also means that the UK Government is losing a day of tax contributions from Lush and our customers.

Britain’s deputy prime minister, Angela Rayner, acknowledged on Wednesday that she had failed to pay adequate taxes when she bought a seaside apartment, raising questions about whether she can hold on to her position and creating another political headache for Prime Minister Keir Starmer. Ms. Rayner said she had not tried to evade taxes, having relied on legal advice about how to handle a complex property transaction that involved another house she owned with her ex-husband. For Mr. Starmer, whose government has struggled to find political traction amid a stagnant economy and erratic economic policies, Ms. Rayner’s admission is a major new distraction. Adding to the political complications for Mr. Starmer, Ms. Rayner is the government’s top housing minister. She is spearheading a Labour pledge to build 1.5 million additional homes in the five-year term of this Parliament.

In an interview with Sky News, Ms Rayner said she had contacted the tax authority to say there was additional property tax to be paid. Mr Starmer’s government has faced a series of scandals, with four ministers forced to resign over wrongdoing since the party was elected. He and Ms Rayner were both criticised early in their term for accepting donations of expensive outfits, a practice they ended. Her personality is in contrast to Mr Starmer’s reputation as a cautious technocrat leader. Ms Rayner grew up in public housing and left school at 16 when pregnant.

The British government on Wednesday outlined plans to ban the sale of high-caffeine energy drinks to children, joining a number of other European countries in a move that it said could cut obesity, reduce anxiety and improve classroom concentration. If it went into effect, the regulation would mean that selling energy drinks containing more than 150 milligrams of caffeine per liter to anyone aged under 16 would be illegal. The ban would apply to all retailers — those selling online and in shops — as well as to restaurants, cafes and vending machines. Sales of tea, coffee and lower-caffeine soft drinks would not be affected, the Health Department said. Around 100,000 British children consume at least one high-caffeine energy drink per day, according to the government, which cited “growing evidence linking these drinks to harmful effects on children, including disrupted sleep, increased anxiety, poor concentration and reduced educational outcomes.”
