Wounded in December, he arrived in Ukraine last year and posted Ukrainian imagery after February 2022 — despite no prior military experience. The UK Foreign Office confirms he’s missing and is assisting his family, while stressing that travel to Ukraine for combat carries severe legal and physical risks, including prosecution and death. His UK criminal record includes convictions against women, adding complexity to the case.

Aberdeen University is in turmoil after its governing Court overrode the Senate’s overwhelming rejection to slash 12 schools into 4 faculties — sparking accusations of a constitutional crisis, ignored democratic processes, and a troubling job-cutting agenda amid new management roles.

Flies aren’t just annoying—they spread germs, but a simple, natural hack from the grocery store can keep them at bay: slice a lemon, stick cloves into each half, and place them near fly hotspots. The lemon’s Limonene confuses flies’ sense of smell, while clove’s Eugenol repels them with a sharp scent. Swap them every few days as they dry out, and watch your kitchen—and patio—stay fly-free without chemicals or cost.

A bitter clash erupts as Transport Secretary Stephen Flynn snubs MP Harriet Cross’s urgent plea to inspect Scotland’s deadliest road — the A96 in Aberdeenshire, where 14 have died and 200 injured in four years. Cross accuses Flynn of ignoring local safety, even mocking his choice to jet off to America instead of tackling the crisis. She blasts decades of neglect and claims the SNP won’t act on this stretch until 2030 — far past their original promise. Flynn’s office confirms he won’t visit, citing budget woes, and admits no progress on Aberdeenshire dualling before 2030 — with all funding focused on the Highland stretch between Inverness and Nairn. The government insists they’re still committed to full dualling, but must now proceed in phases, moving east from Inverness toward Aberdeen.

The North Sea industry is sounding the alarm, urging the next prime minister to reverse course on oil and gas restrictions before it’s too late — warning that current policies risk job losses, supply chain collapse, and Britain’s energy security. Industry leaders argue for a balanced strategy that supports both traditional energy and renewables, pointing to other European nations adapting to global shifts. With the UK alone in Europe resisting policy change, experts stress the need for stability, realistic transition planning, and a willingness to listen — not just to protect jobs, but to safeguard the nation’s energy future.
