Ruben Amorim must do what Erik ten Hag couldn't and get Marcus Rashford and Bruno Fernandes firing again at Manchester United, urges Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink. "I think I expect more from Rashford and from Bruno Fernandes at Manchester United. I'm expecting more from Marcus Rashford because I know Rashford can do much more," Hasselbaink told Lucky Block. "Marcus Rashford is an exceptional player we just haven't seen enough of it and I also think that he is the type of player that should be a leader within the Manchester United team." Amorim's first match in charge will be against Ipswich Town on Sunday, November 24, providing him with an opportunity to make a strong start in the Premier League.

Japan's top national security official said he conveyed "serious concerns" to China's foreign minister over North Korea's deepening ties with Russia after the pair held talks in Beijing. The United States and its allies say they believe up to 10,000 North Korean troops are on the brink of entering combat in Ukraine from Russia's side. On Monday, Russian President Vladimir Putin hosted the North Korean foreign minister, who has previously said the country will stand by Russia until its "victory" in Ukraine. China considers Russia and North Korea its close partners. Relations between Japan and China have worsened as Beijing builds up its military capacity in the region, and as Japan boosts security ties with the United States and its allies.

Despite achieving outstanding progress, such as the creation of a new global biodiversity fund and greater inclusion of indigenous communities, the summit has also left pending important challenges for the coming years. Inclusion of indigenous communities and funds for genetic resourcesOne of the most notable achievements of COP16 has been the formal recognition of indigenous communities within the UN's biodiversity decision-making process. In addition, the “Cali” fund has been created to share the benefits derived from the commercial use of genetic resources. It is estimated that this fund could generate billions for biodiversity conservation, with the proceeds going, in part, to indigenous communities and developing countries. Funding commitments set out in the Kunming-Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework, which include a goal of raising $200 billion annually for biodiversity protection, have not been met.

(Alamy/PA)A strike at The New York Times could affect its US election converge and staff want you to stop playing Wordle and Connections to help them. It has since remained an important mainstay of The New York Times website and seems to have paved the way for more puzzle games, such as Connections and Strands. In addition, it has asked regular readers to ‘honour the digital picket line’ and not engage with Wordle or any of The New York Times’ games. Voting has already begun and without its tech staff, The New York Times’ coverage of the most important event of the year will be badly affected.

Britain’s Conservative Party made history last weekend, becoming the country’s first major party to elect a Black woman as leader. And yet this milestone was reached not by a party of the progressive center-left but by Britain’s oldest and most traditional conservative political force. After all, the Conservatives have broken glass ceilings before, picking all three of Britain’s female prime ministers, as well as its first leader who wasn’t white, Rishi Sunak. Now 44, Ms. Badenoch was born in London and raised in Nigeria, returning to Britain when she was 16. In her first parliamentary speech, in 2017, she declared, “To all intents and purposes, I am a first-generation immigrant.”

More infoRuben Amorim’s bottom line for this season is to ensure Manchester United qualify for Europe via any tactical means necessary, says Dimitar Berbatov. They are six points off fifth, the guaranteed automatic Europa League qualification spot, but can finish lower and still qualify for Europe. Should the winners of the FA Cup and League Cup finish in a Champions League place, the respective prizes of Europa League and Europa Conference League qualification get passed down to the next positions in the table - namely sixth and seventh. However, the former United striker is intrigued to see how the new boss will set up his team given the players he has at his disposal. “The players might not be 100% suited because they won’t be, they’re not his players, they’re not the squad he’s built.

No smoker wants to harm other people, but with second-hand smoke they unintentionally do. Some people are especially vulnerable to tobacco chemicals: children, pregnant women, people with common pre-existing but usually invisible health conditions like asthma, diabetes or coronary heart disease. This led to rapid improvements in health including around 1,200 fewer heart attack admissions and many fewer asthma admissions in children in the first year alone. The tobacco industry drives health inequality, harms the economy through ill health including during the working age and causes a burden on the NHS - far outweighing the tax receipts. Ensuring a smoke-free generation, protecting families and vulnerable people from involuntary second-hand smoke and preventing some of the tricks used to market cigarettes and vapes to children will have substantial long-term benefits to the health of the public.

Kamala Harris and Donald Trump have tied with three votes each in the tiny New Hampshire town that traditionally kicks off voting on election day. Since the 1960s, voters in Dixville Notch, close to the Canadian border, have gathered just after midnight to cast their ballots. Votes are then counted and results announced – hours before other states open their polls. According to CNN, four registered Republicans and two undeclared voters took part in the vote just after midnight on Tuesday

Donald Trump and Kamala Harris delivered their closing arguments, holding duelling rallies across the battleground states well into the night, on the last day of campaigning before the US election. Harris was in Pennsylvania, the biggest swing state and crucial to the Democratic campaign. She held the final rally of her campaign at the steps of the Philadelphia Museum of Art. Introduced by Oprah Winfrey and Lady Gaga, Harris emphasised her message of hope. Trump struck a darker tone in the same state, with threats to put tariffs on all imports from Mexico unless it stopped people from entering the US.
