It passed the House last year but has struggled to gain final congressional approval, with disagreements over conflicts of…

Real Madrid are reportedly preparing a January move for Arsenal midfielder Martin Zubimendi, with Spanish reports claiming a deal has already been agreed for the 27-year-old.

Micro-cheating in relationships can begin with seemingly minor acts, but may develop into something more serious, a couples’ therapist has warned. Joanna Harrison, author of Five Arguments All Couples (Need To) Have, said behaviours such as concealing a relationship, exchanging overly familiar direct messages or turning to someone else for emotional support could create tension between partners. Other warning signs may include excessive attention on social media, subtle physical contact or sharing confidences with another person instead of bringing them into the relationship. Ms Harrison said the term was subjective, as couples could have very different views about what crossed…

The law, signed in September 2025 and effective from the beginning of this year, requires the largest AI developers to publish safety frameworks setting out how risks will be assessed and mitigated. It also requires companies…
