In the world of politics, Kemi Bandenoch has sacked shadow defence secretary Robert Generic from the Conservative Party. This is after she was presented with “clear, irrefutable evidence,” showing a plan to defect from the Tory party. But what does this mean? Well, Generic still holds his seat in Warwick, Nottinghamshire; however, he is now listed as an independent MP. It also means he can no longer attend the annual Conservative Party conference or vote in the Tory leadership contest.

The US has now increased its threats of an invasion of Greenland, stating that any condemnation from any European country will be met with a ten per cent tariff. The PM said these threats are “completely wrong” and a “very serious situation”. Also saying that a trade war with the US is in “nobody's interests”. Ultimately, Greenland remains under the ownership of the Kingdom of Denmark, having been so for over 300 years. Despite Trump insisting that it is crucial to America's national security.

It is believed that more than 60 Labour MPs have urged the PM to implement a ban on social media for under-16s. This comes after Australia's ban in December, as well as many other countries which are also considering a law. This comes as all 60 MPs feel that there has not been enough to protect young people from the dangerous, addictive platforms that social media sites are. After the success of the online safety act, which required people to provide identification to access explicit content, this would be the next step in protecting the country's younger generation.
