At a moment of geopolitical strife, Britain’s defence capabilities have never been more important. In focus: Britain’s defence capabilities have never been more important, Alex Brummer saysIt is an air journey only made possible by the flight refuelling technology developed by aviation innovator Sir Alan Cobham. It is easy for Advent to argue it has done Cobham a huge favour by selling off its disparate parts so rapidly. Reality is that Advent and other private equity firms are rarely business builders. No longer should cash, private equity greed and overseas ownership be allowed to work against the public interest.

Paolo Garbisi knows Italy face a tough task against IrelandBy Ed Elliot, PA, DublinFly-half Paolo Garbisi believes Italy are ready for the “most difficult match in world rugby” and expects facing Ireland to be twice as tough as taking on England.

11 Feb 2024| 04:04am ISTChandor’s unique Mussol NachThe Vijayanagars won the battle and to celebrate their victory, they probably thought of choreographing a dance which would be performed generation after generation. During this period, Chandor had been the capital of Goa. It is noteworthy that Chandor was the capital of the Kadambas until 1054, when they moved the capital to Govapuri/Gopakapattan (Goa Velha). On listening to what they have to say, the dancers chant a prayer for the wellbeing of the male absentee. The Mussol fell of Cávori is conducted on the following day after the one at Cotta.

Rodrigo Muniz bags brace as Fulham return to winning ways against BournemouthBy Reuben Rosso-Powell, PARodrigo Muniz scored a brace as Fulham claimed their first Premier League win of the year with a 3-1 victory over Bournemouth at Craven Cottage. Marco Silva’s decision to start Muniz continued to pay off into the fifth minute when he was heavily involved with Fulham’s opening goal. Bournemouth needed a response and they got just that – five minutes into the second half – when Senesi pulled one back for the visitors. But just two minutes later, Fulham responded in fashion when Muniz grabbed his second of the match. Bournemouth searched for a late fightback but the Cottagers held on through seven added minutes to leapfrog their opponents into 12th.

The British Daily Mail recently reported that Iran's Revolutionary Guards have been actively seeking to enlist British Muslims. The purpose of this recruitment is for them to act as spies on Jews and those opposing Iran's regime within the UK, among other things. The report, which drew from Israeli and British sources, mentioned that these recruiters engaged in conversations with Muslims who were visiting religious sites in Iran and Iraq. Furthermore, the report contained cautionary advice from experts about Iranian scholarship students, indicating that they could potentially be spies as well. As they constituted a risk to the nation's security, Sweden deported them a year later.

Robin Swann reinstates funding to Northern Ireland Children’s HospiceBy David Young, PAStormont’s Health Minister has reinstated £85,000 (€100,000) of funding to the Northern Ireland Children’s Hospice but has acknowledged it will not be enough to prevent the announced reduction in some services at the facility. Robin Swann had asked officials to look “urgently” at the planned bed cuts to determine the best way forward. On Friday night he said a funding cut that would have seen the hospice lose £85,000 of support from his department this year would be reinstated. “Like all healthcare providers, it has encountered significantly rising running costs, reflecting inflationary pressures,” he said of the children’s hospice. I am also aware of the fact that other Northern Ireland departments have provided financial support to NICH in the past.

Jeremy Hunt will be taking a keener interest than normal when Natwest kicks off the bank reporting season next week. A repeat of the fervour that surrounded Margaret Thatcher's privatisation programme of the 1980s – including British Gas and British Telecom – looks highly unlikely, however. Natwest – or Royal Bank of Scotland as it was previously known – has lurched from crisis to crisis since taxpayers bailed it out to the tune of £45billion during the financial crisis of 2007-09. But Natwest shares continue to languish, and missteps such as the Nigel Farage debanking scandal have done little to help. So generating any enthusiasm among a weary public to take part in a share sale may prove tricky.
