By George Wright Published 11 hours ago Share close Share page Copy link About sharing The United States has accused Beijing of "provocative" and "irresponsible" actions after Taiwan said China rehearsed an attack on the island. Taiwan said it responded to the Chinese drills, now in their fourth day, by deploying aircraft and ships on Sunday. The heightened tensions follow a trip to Taiwan by a US delegation led by senior Democrat Nancy Pelosi. China views the visit as a challenge to its claims of sovereignty over Taiwan, which sees itself as distinct. Taiwan's defence ministry said Chinese ships and planes carried out missions in the Taiwan Strait over the weekend, with some crossing the median line - an unofficial buffer separating the two sides. The Taiwan military said it responded "appropriately" to the live-fire exercises, which it described as a simulated attack … [Read more...] about Taiwan: US hits out at ‘irresponsible’ China amid attack rehearsal claims

Mike Tyson has put Hulu on blast for allegedly producing the upcoming series about his life without his consent. Starring Moonlight actor Trevante Rhodes as the former heavy-eight champion, fans were recently treated to a tense flavour of what’s to come in the eight-parter , which promises to give an ‘unauthorised and no-holds-barred look’ at the life of one of the most controversial sporting figures in history. Formerly titled Iron Mike, Mike explores the tumultuous ups and downs of the 56-year-old’s boxing career and personal life – from being a beloved global athlete to a pariah and back again. Mike also examines class and race in America, fame and the power of media, misogyny, the wealth divide and the promise of the American Dream. However, the former pro made his feelings known about the biopic on Instagram. ‘Don’t let Hulu fool you,’ he wrote. ‘I don’t support their story about my life. It’s not 1822. It’s 2022.

A geography teacher cleared of raping a pupil has warned that men should steer clear of the profession, after a false allegation shattered his dream career. Kato Harris, a former head of department at an all-girls school in London, was accused of attacking a 14-year-old three times in a classroom during lunch breaks in autumn 2013, but was found not guilty after a trial last year . The 38-year-old said before his ordeal began, "life was like a wonderful dream", and with a successful career and a child also on the way he was "looking forward to a great future". In an interview with the Mail on Sunday , he has disclosed that "one of the biggest challenges" he now faces is forgiving his accuser, something he said he will do, "just not now". He told the newspaper: "I would certainly advocate that no man qualify as a teacher. It is just not worth it. What is the lesson here? There is nothing to protect the male teacher." A jury found Mr Harris, from Richmond, not guilty of … [Read more...] about Geography teacher cleared of raping pupil says men should stay away from teaching
