Nige is on full gloat, while Keir clings on with a hunted look in his eyes | John Crace

Local elections appear to signal end of two-party politics with five parties in the game in England

It all panned out pretty much as everyone had expected. Nigel Farage was insufferably pleased with himself. Keir Starmer looked hunted while insisting he was going to remain prime minister for ever. Longer possibly. Kemi Badenoch grinned wildly, saying the Tories were back in the game as they slumped to insignificance everywhere but the south-east. Ed Davey became supreme leader of the People’s Republic of Richmond upon Thames where the Lib Dems won all 54 seats. Zack Polanski chose not to make an appearance before lunchtime. And Huw Irranca-Davies, Labour’s erstwhile deputy first minister in Wales, conceded defeat before a vote had been counted. Business as usual.

Except it wasn’t. These were the local elections that appeared to signal the end of two-party politics. There were now five parties in the game in England. That’s before we had got to Plaid Cymru in Wales and the SNP in Scotland. And by the end of the night, Labour and the Conservatives were lying in ruins. Their only consolation being that their losses weren’t even worse. If their election campaigns had taught them anything, it was how to manage expectations.

Greenlandic woman wins case against Danish authorities who confiscated her child

Keira Alexandra Kronvold’s daughter Zammi was forcibly removed from her when she was two hours old

A Greenlandic woman whose newborn baby was forcibly removed by Danish authorities as a result of controversial parenting competency tests has won a landmark case in the high court ruling that their actions were illegal.

Keira Alexandra Kronvold’s daughter Zammi was taken away from her when she was two hours old and placed in foster care in November 2024 after Kronvold was subjected to so-called FKU (parental competence) psychometric tests. At the time she was told that the test was to see if she was “civilised enough”.

White House calls Mark Hamill ‘sick’ after his post with AI image of Trump in a grave

Star Wars actor later deleted post and apologized, saying president should live ‘long enough to be held accountable’

The White House has branded Star Wars actor Mark Hamill “a sick individual” after an AI-generated image showing Donald Trump in a shallow grave, with the words “If Only” as an overlay was posted to one of star’s social media accounts.

Hamill, who played the lead character of Luke Skywalker in six movies of the iconic science fiction franchise and is a longtime critic of the US president, apologized and removed the post from his Bluesky account on Thursday.

Claims of nimbyism are a misunderstanding: the movement is about whether regular people have a say in fundamental decisions

Since the surreal scene at the 2024 presidential inauguration, when a row of big tech titans took their VIP seats and signaled their new alliance with Maga, the Trump administration has rolled out the red carpet for Silicon Valley’s AI ambitions and shareholder priorities.

Washington has doled out billions in lucrative federal subsidies and contracts to the cash-rich sector, bloating an AI bubble that experts warn may imperil the entire economy while prohibiting any guardrails on the fast-moving technology.

MIA review – the creator of Ozark’s new drama is as subtle as being mauled by a 12ft alligator

This Florida-set revenge thriller swings between being boring and ludicrous. It’s riddled with awkward dialogue and convenient plotting

Miami, Florida is the US at its extreme. Ostentatious wealth is everywhere, some legal, some very illegal, most of it in a grey area between the two. All of it is propped up by the hard work and cherished dreams of immigrants, people whose fight for a better life is getting harder – those few who make it to the top having to decide if, now they are no longer being exploited, they are willing to exploit others.

All that provides the serious subtext for MIA, a new drama created by Bill Dubuque (Ozark). But any thoughtful treatment of the immigrant experience it might have to offer is overwhelmed by the sheer silliness of the main story, a revenge thriller starring Shannon Gisela as Etta Tiger Jonze, a woman in her early 20s whose entire family is slaughtered by a drug cartel. Raging with grief and with nothing to lose, Etta restarts from zero, lying low in Miami’s Haitian community while plotting to kill precisely 12 gangsters: the bad guys she witnessed murdering her loved ones.

Jess Cartner-Morley’s May style essentials: summer totes, chic shirts and the best shoes of the year so far

Whether it’s the Met Gala or the start of holiday dressing, May is big news in the fashion world

The best wedding guest dresses for every budget

May starts with a bang, in fashion. The Met Gala, which happens on the first Monday in May every year, is the most outrageous, most high-concept red carpet of the year. The Met looks don’t offer much in the way of real-life style, but they are a nice reminder that fashion in the summer should be fun.

Bank holiday weekends are the perfect time to road test your holiday-season style, and longer evenings make a breezier kind of dressing up feel doable. There are some gems out there right now: read on for the Cos trousers that might just be your new wardrobe staple, and the high-street flats that I’ve had compliments on every time I’ve worn them.

Zwemmen in Kralinger Esch mag na drie jaar weer; negatief zwemadvies ingetrokken

Zwemmen in het Rotterdamse natuurzwembad Kralinger Esch mag na drie jaar weer. De provincie Zuid-Holland heeft het negatieve zwemadvies, dat gold sinds 2023, ingetrokken. Uit meerdere metingen is namelijk gebleken dat de PFAS-concentraties in het water tot ruim onder de risicogrenswaarde zijn gedaald én dat zwemmen dus weer veilig kan.

Raspberry Pi wants Windows admins to Connect – or it might pull the plug

Administrators who want a Windows version of Raspberry Pi Connect need to register their interest, or else the Pi team might ditch the concept. Raspberry Pi Connect is a tool that lets admins remotely access a Raspberry Pi device from a web browser. It launched in 2024 as a free service for individuals and was later joined by Raspberry Pi Connect for Organizations, aimed at commercial customers with fleets of devices, costing $0.50 per device per month. $0.50 per device per month is cheap for a commercial remote access solution on Windows. In response to queries on the subject, the Raspberry Pi team made a Windows version of the service available, albeit as a highly experimental demo not intended for production, at the end of April. Gordon Hollingworth, CTO of Software at Raspberry Pi, told The Register: "The Raspberry Pi Connect daemon implementation is currently closed source, but we intend to open source it eventually so it can be added to other architectures." Hollingworth noted that the Windows version was working in early beta form, saying: "We think it may be useful for our customers to control all their devices from one place. But we are still investigating the concept and may remove this capability if there's insufficient interest." For admins managing mixed fleets of devices, it's an interesting option, though the company would face stiff competition in the Windows market if it decides to proceed. Raspberry Pi has quietly added more enterprise-friendly features over time. Tags can now be applied to devices (for example, to show their location or purpose), and it is possible to require two-factor authentication for members of Connect for Organizations. The company's computers have long been a low-cost option for businesses considering thin clients, and its most recent crop of hardware releases, such as the computer-in-a-keyboard Pi 500 and Pi 500+ devices, could replace existing desktops. Should the Windows version of Raspberry Pi Connect attract enough interest to progress beyond its early beta state, it will represent another inroad into the enterprise computing space. ®

Hackers maken gegevens Canvas openbaar: ‘sowieso een 4’ van Fleur blijkt 8.2

​Voor de tweede keer in een korte tijd is studie-app Canvas gehackt. Gegevens van miljoenen studenten en medewerkers zijn openbaar gemaakt, waaronder de cijferlijst van student Rechtsgeleerdheid Fleur (19).

“Omg whaha echt he-le-maal verkloot”, aldus Fleur na haar tentamen voor het vak Inleiding in de Rechtsgeleerdheid. “Heb sowieso een 4.” Dankzij de openbaar gemaakte gegevens blijkt dat dit niet waar is. Fleur haalde een 8.2.

Studievriend Willem (20) verbaast het niks. “Ze kwam al weken niet op de soos. Haar huisgenootje vertelde me dat hij haar stiekem op haar kamer wetten hoorde stampen. En dat terwijl ze steeds beweerde dat ze nooit huiswerk deed. Echt ziek matig. Ik heb haar ook nooit bij een herkansing zien zitten.”

Willem is zelf vooral ongerust over de publicatie van zijn eigen gegevens: “Als mijn ouders zien dat ik dit hele jaar nog geen vak heb gehaald mag ik niet mee op clubvakantie. Dat zou moker zuur zijn”.
