The message, however, went to a work phone that she had deliberately left at home that evening; she had a date night with her husband, Markus Räikkönen, a former soccer player turned tech entrepreneur. The couple had dinner with friends, stopped by a cocktail bar near the Helsinki harbor, and then went dancing at Butchers, a night club named to evoke New York City's meatpacking district.

Cork's Morgan McSweeney is one of the most powerful Irishmen in the world as Keir Starmer's chief of staff. But now he faces mounting challenges

Ruben Amorim, like those before him, blinks in the glare of the endless fascination with Manchester United's leading man, and may wonder whether this is the impossible job. Three games into a first full campaign the 40-year-old seemed to believe so. The desultory 12-11 Carabao Cup penalty shootout defeat at Grimsby followed a 1-0 loss to Arsenal and 1-1 draw at Fulham. Three matches, zero wins, and the executioner's song began to wail for the Portuguese's job security.

This time last year, Beatrice Zavarro, a then unknown lawyer from Marseille, drew herself up to her full 1.45-metre (4ft 8in) height, and addressed the figure in the dock: It's you and me against the world. That man was Dominique Pelicot. Over the next three months and 17 days, the court would learn that for almost a decade he had drugged his wife, Gisele, and invited more than 50 men into their bedroom to rape her while she was unconscious.

As you know, on Wednesday I referred myself to your independent adviser on ministerial standards, Sir Laurie Magnus, to conduct a thorough investigation into my personal financial circumstances after I became aware that it is likely I inadvertently paid the incorrect rate for stamp duty land tax (SDLT). I have always taken my responsibilities as deputy prime minister, secretary of state for housing, communities and local government, as well as a member of parliament with the utmost seriousness.

Maggie, when you heard the President say today that he wasn't aware of these conspiracies. I mean, he did write, in all-caps, on Sunday, that he had NEVER FELT BETTER IN MY LIFE, as he posted on Truth Social. Obviously, he kind of seemed to know something was up. And I wonder what your reporting says about his assertions that he didn't know about all this rampant speculation, over the weekend.

Lamine Yamal has become the most exciting young footballer on the planet after shooting to stardom with Barcelona and Spain but if anyone knows the potential pitfalls ahead of him, it's Freddy Adu. The American was hailed as the 'next Pele' after making his MLS debut at 14 and his senior international debut at 16, but struggled to fulfil his potential after spending his teenage years in the media spotlight.

"It's clearly not right that a platform now more watched than almost any traditional broadcaster is still operating under a 'lighter touch' advertising regime."

I am not some pawn in your political warfare. What you have done and continue to do is eating at me day after day as you help to perpetuate this story indefinitely.

In July, the Wall Street Journal reported Trump allegedly sent Epstein a 50th birthday card in 2003 featuring a drawing of a naked woman.

Mr Carey announced his resignation from his roles as chairman of Enterprise Ireland and The Housing Agency due to late account filings at his company, East Coast Bakehouse.

In a split second, his shock morphs into a smile. He waves, charmingly, at the journalists: he's back in control.

She's always been really honest and firm about standing up for yourself. That's what she did. Hitchcock ruined her career because she didn't want to sleep with him.

"It's a topic neither one of them is comfortable commenting on."

The president stands strongly behind Secretary Hegseth, who is doing a phenomenal job leading the Pentagon. This is what happens when the entire Pentagon is working against you.
