But ESN was not simply a policy, it was a worldview. One that treated white, middle-class norms as neutral intelligence and Black difference as deficiency. Thousands of Black children were siphoned out of mainstream education, denied exams, and quietly written off by a system that called exclusion “assessment.” The state has never......

What began as a quiet call for accountability has become a national flashpoint, with voters insisting that they should not be represented by a party they never chose. As the signature count climbs by the hour, pressure is mounting on Westminster to set a firm debate date and acknowledge the growing......

When Trevor Noah sits down with Barbados’ Prime Minister Mia Amor Mottley, you already know the conversation won’t behave itself. And from the moment he opened with Rihanna and the Bajan accent, the tone was set: Caribbean and SouthAfrican heavyweights reasoning, laughing, and dismantling global hypocrisy with the kind of ease that only comes from lived experience.
Trevor kicked things off by teasing Mottley about Barbados’ most famous daughter — Rihanna — before slipping into a playful imitation of the Bajan......

Michael B. Jordan arrived at the Golden Globes with the kind of energy that suggested the night was already his. Sinners had dominated the nominations, sweeping up wins in other categories and positioning him as the obvious favourite for Best Actor. Walking the carpet with his mother, he carried the pride of a man whose work had not only moved audiences but elevated the entire film. Yet when the envelope opened and another name was called, the room shifted. Shock wasn’t whispered; it was felt.

Veteran actor T.K. Carter, best known for his unforgettable roles in The Thing and the beloved children’s series Punky Brewster, has passed away at the age of 69.

His blend of comedic timing, emotional depth and cultural authenticity carved out space in an era when opportunities were far more limited. Children of that generation will forever remember him as Mike Fulton, the warm, steady presence in Punky Brewster, a programme that brightened countless young lives and offered a sense of comfort and joy......
