By JOHN-PAUL FORD ROJAS Updated: 22:06 BST, 10 April 2025 Donald Trump’s trade war will have a ‘chilling effect’ on UK growth, a leading Bank of England official has warned.As market carnage showed little sign of abating yesterday, Sarah Breeden, deputy governor at the Bank, said that ‘overall, tariffs are likely to lower UK growth’.The comments came as Wall Street markets sold off again, giving up much of the gains they had enjoyed a day earlier when Trump announced a 90-day suspension of his plans in relation to most countries.Markets on this side of the Atlantic followed up yesterday with…
Fans were delighted to spot one of daytime television’s most unforgettable scene-stealers out and about in Los Angeles, as the notoriously low-key actress made a rare public appearance. At 84, the soap icon—best known for her deliciously devious turn as Vivian Alamain on Days of Our Lives—looked vibrant and confident, flashing a knowing smile while out in a casual cardigan and black leggings.She may have been dressed down, but fans couldn’t help but recall the over-the-top glamour and villainy of her Days alter ego, a character who buried rivals alive, schemed her way through Salem, and became a fan-favorite for her unapologetic…
By ELLYN LAPOINTE FOR DAILYMAIL.COM Published: 15:19 BST, 11 April 2025 | Updated: 16:12 BST, 11 April 2025 The US Air Force once made plans for a ‘gay bomb’ that would use chemical aphrodisiacs to make enemy soldiers ‘irresistibly attractive to one another.’ The bizarre plan, formulated by the military’s Wright Laboratory in 1994, was part of a six-year non-lethal weapons development project costing $7.5 million that was ultimately scrapped. A three-page document obtained by the Sunshine Project, an anti-biological weapons organization, details the laboratory’s proposal for a bomb ‘that contained a chemical that would cause enemy soldiers to become gay.’The scientists theorized…

Both cities also topped the 10 cities with the highest percentage of residents who had used marijuana.Every city on the list reported cocaine use rates exceeding 21 percent, though all…
To truly get under the skin of America, it helps to escape the big cities and head for the hinterlands. Prairies, mountains, forests and deserts – the country’s wild and diverse landscapes – are joined together by a crisscrossing network of national highways. Each one punctuated along its asphalt by charming small towns and villages that most Americans (let alone foreign visitors) have never heard of.I am so enamored with off the beaten track America, that I’ve now cycled across the nation twice – a total of 10,000 miles. Most recently in the lead-up to the 2024 Presidential Election, for my new…

Rugby league legend Andrew Johns has sounded the alarm about the future of State of Origin, warning that if eligibility rules don’t change soon, the iconic series could be unrecognisable within two decades.The former Blues halfback made the bold prediction in his Fairfax column, expressing deep concern about the direction the game is heading. Johns believes Origin could be filled with second-tier players if current trends continue.’And if you make them choose between countries like Tonga and Samoa or Origin, then, with the greatest of respect, you’ll end up with reserve grade front-rowers playing for NSW and Queensland in 20…
It has been a rollercoaster week for global stock markets, which first dived amid US tariffs, trade war and recession concerns only to whipsaw back when President Trump placed a 90-day hold on levies.It’s so far left the FTSE 100 around 2 per cent in the red. Small-caps, by contrast, fared much better, ending the week broadly unchanged. That said, the ride to get this point was a fairly scary one, full of undulations.This comparative outperformance of the blue-chip index shouldn’t fool anyone. The growth company benchmark is in serious decline amid lack of interest in the sector, low liquidity…
