Spain approves bill to become first country in Europe to offer menstrual leave

May 17, 2022 by news.sky.com

Spain has approved a draft bill that widens abortion rights for teenagers as it becomes the first country in Europe to entitle workers to paid menstrual leave. The measures are part of a package of proposals that will be sent to Spain's parliament for debate. It includes an extension of abortion rights, scrapping the requirement for 16 and 17-year-olds to obtain parental consent before terminating a pregnancy. Meanwhile, it proposes giving workers who suffer from severe period pain three days of optional medical leave a month, with two additional days permitted in exceptional cases. "We will recognise in the law the right to leave for women who have painful periods that will be financed by the state," equality minister Irene Montero tweeted on Friday. Advertisement She said it would no longer be "normal to go to work in pain", adding the move would "end the stigma, shame and silence around periods". Jose Luis Escriva, Spain's minister for inclusion, … [Read more...] about Spain approves bill to become first country in Europe to offer menstrual leave

‘I’ve heard this before, to be honest’: Mark McCall warns against writing off Premiership clubs in Europe

May 16, 2022 by www.telegraph.co.uk

‘Ils ont fouetté la crème anglaise’: The amusing headline of regional newspaper Var - Matin proposed that Toulon had whipped the cream of the English club scene. Mark McCall would not have disagreed that Saracens were second best at a feverish Stade Mayol. Still, he does not seem prone to rash statements, so it was unsurprising to hear a pragmatic tone after the Challenge Cup semi-final on Saturday evening. The defeat did not just end the campaign for his team. Hours after Wasps went down in Lyon , Saracens were the last Premiership side left standing in Europe, so English clubs will have no representation in the final of either the Champions or Challenge Cup for the first time since 2013. That is stark, especially when you consider that there has not been a Premiership semi-finalist in the Champions Cup since 2020. That said, McCall has been reading some commentary on the European landscape. It has felt familiar. “I’ve kind of heard this before a few times, to be … [Read more...] about ‘I’ve heard this before, to be honest’: Mark McCall warns against writing off Premiership clubs in Europe

Severodonetsk: Battle for key road as fighting reaches Ukraine city

May 25, 2022 by www.bbc.co.uk

By Paul Kirby Published 20 hours ago Share close Share page Copy link About sharing Related Topics Russia-Ukraine war A senior figure in eastern Ukraine has denied reports that a vital road linking Ukrainian-controlled areas in the east has been blocked from the rest of the country by Russian forces. "Luhansk has not been cut off," said the region's military administration head, Serhiy Haidai. Fighting has reached the outskirts of the big city of Severodonetsk, a key Russian target. If they capture the road to Bakhmut then the city could be surrounded. Mr Haidai said that while the route to the south-west of Severodonetsk had come under fire, humanitarian aid was still getting through. Things were far bleaker in Severodonetsk itself, which was being shelled 24 hours a day and Russian forces were close enough to use mortar rounds as well as artillery and … [Read more...] about Severodonetsk: Battle for key road as fighting reaches Ukraine city

Ukraine round-up: Russia’s food war and dead soldiers abandoned

Published 17 hours ago Share close Share page Copy link About sharing Related Topics Russia-Ukraine war Russian forces have reached the outskirts of a key city in the Donbas region, Severodonetsk, which Ukraine says is under 24-hour a day bombardment as Russia attempts to take full control. But reports that Russia controls a vital arterial road south-west of the city are untrue, a Ukrainian official has told the BBC. "They can't take the city so they have decided to try to destroy it, and to make our troops leave the city," Luhansk regional governor Serhiy Haidai said.

Ukraine war: Bodies of dead Russian soldiers abandoned near Kyiv

May 25, 2022 by www.bbc.co.uk

By Sarah Rainsford Published 1 day ago Share close Share page Copy link About sharing Related Topics Russia-Ukraine war When their dogs started digging insistently at a spot in the woods, villagers in Zavalivka called in the authorities. A Ukrainian military team were soon at the scene in white protective suits, carefully removing the topsoil. They uncovered a man's body, face down with his legs oddly twisted beneath him. It was clear from his uniform that he was a Russian soldier. Weeks after they failed to seize Ukraine's capital, the remains of Russian troops are still being discovered in and around the villages they passed through or occupied near the capital, Kyiv. But Ukraine says Russia shows little interest in getting them back. From the grave in the woods, the body was removed to a refrigerated train on the outskirts of Kyiv that now operates as a mobile … [Read more...] about Ukraine war: Bodies of dead Russian soldiers abandoned near Kyiv

Ukraine war: Russian soldier Vadim Shishimarin jailed for life over war crime

By Patrick Jackson & James Waterhouse Published 2 days ago Share close Share page Copy link About sharing Related Topics Russia-Ukraine war A court in Ukraine has jailed a Russian tank commander for life for killing a civilian at the first war crimes trial since the invasion. Captured soldier Sgt Vadim Shishimarin was convicted of killing Oleksandr Shelipov, 62, in the north-eastern village of Chupakhivka on 28 February. He admitted shooting Mr Shelipov but said he had been acting on orders and asked forgiveness of the man's widow. Many other alleged war crimes are being investigated by Ukraine. And in a conflict where the deliberate targeting of civilians has become one of the defining features, Monday's outcome sets a significant legal precedent. Moscow has always denied its troops have targeted civilians, despite a wealth of evidence to the contrary, while … [Read more...] about Ukraine war: Russian soldier Vadim Shishimarin jailed for life over war crime

Arsenal in huge financial blow for missing out on Champions League as Tottenham get transfer kitty boost of up to £110m

May 23, 2022 by www.thesun.co.uk

MANCHESTER City are set to bank nearly £53m from the Champions League next season - before kicking a ball. And Spurs ’ return to Europe’s elite will add a minimum £37m into the N17 coffers - with the potential of earning more than £110m. But Arsenal and Manchester United will earn under £17m each, and a maximum of up to £26m for taking part in the Thursday-Sunday grind of the Europa League . And West Ham ’s second successive European campaign will see them struggle to make more than a relative pittance with just £7.9m guaranteed for their place in the Conference League . The financial importance of Champions League football was again made clear by the difference between the top four’s income projections and the rest. All four Prem sides get £13.26m purely as a participation payment, as well as a share of the £28.7m first half of the English TV “market pool”.
