The Guardian

The Guardian is a British daily newspaper. It was founded in Manchester in 1821 as The Manchester Guardian and changed its name in 1959, followed by a move to London. Along with its sister paper, The Guardian Weekly, The Guardian is part of the Guardian Media Group, owned by the Scott Trust Limited. The trust was created in 1936 to "secure the financial and editorial independence of The Guardian in perpetuity and to safeguard the journalistic freedom and liberal values of The Guardian free from commercial or political interference". The trust was converted into a limited company in 2008, with a constitution written so as to maintain for The Guardian the same protections as were built into the structure of the Scott Trust by its creators. Profits are reinvested in its journalism rather than distributed to owners or shareholders. It is considered a newspaper of record in the UK.

  • Victory for party comes despite unusual and aggressive efforts by Republicans to redraw congressional districts US midterm elections – live updates Track live results from all 50 states Democrats are winning competitive US House races and are expected to flip the US House of Representatives after two tumultuous years of Donald Trump’s second presidency. A change in House control would give Democrats a perch to conduct robust oversight of the administration for its final two years. Republicans currently hold 218 seats in the House and Democrats have 214. (There is one vacancy in a Republican seat and one vacancy in a Democratic seat, and one Republican member switched his party affiliation to independent.) Democrats need to flip just three seats to gain control of the House. Continue reading...

North Carolina has not elected a Democrat to the US Senate since 2008, and the success of Cooper, a former governor, brings his party one seat closer to retaking control of a chamber they lost two years ago, when Donald Trump returned to the White House.

  • Pappas focused campaign against Republican John Sununu on serving as a bulwark against Trump administration US midterm elections – live updates Track live results from all 50 states Chris Pappas , the four-term Democratic congressman, has won New Hampshire ’s US Senate race, protecting the open seat from a Republican flip in a closely fought contest against John Sununu, the former senator. Pappas, 46, is a centrist voice in the US House who has at times broken with his party on major legislation.

  • Zelenskyy says 33 killed while more than 50 could be trapped in the rubble in Komyshuvakha; Russia hammers Ukraine’s ⁠energy infrastructure. What we know on day 1,715 Thirty-three people were killed and more than 50 could be trapped in rubble a day after multiple Russian strikes on a Ukrainian village , Volodymyr Zelenskyy said on Tuesday, calling it one of Moscow’s worst attacks of the war. Rescue operations were ongoing in the frontline south-eastern village of Komyshuvakha, where Russian forces had struck a former school building that Ukraine said was being used to distribute aid. The attack hit after a ceasefire held for several days in the Kherson region, Pjotr Saeur reports , allowing for a rare humanitarian mission. Russia bombarded Ukraine’s ⁠energy infrastructure in waves on Tuesday, knocking out power to swathes of the country with dozens of missiles and hundreds of drones, a week before US-brokered peace talks were due to resume . Zelenskyy said Russia had launched 289 drones, 17 ballistic missiles and 59 cruise missiles overnight , hitting power plants and substations from the Black Sea port of Odesa in the south to Rivne in the west. Ukraine’s largest private generating company, DTEK, said three of its five thermal power plants had been knocked offline. The Kyiv ‌mayor, Vitali Klitschko, writing on Telegram, described the situation with power in the city as “extremely difficult”. A further suspect has been arrested in connection with a fire at a Polish Starlink station in September , German prosecutors said Tuesday. The Turkish national was detained in the southern German city of Reutlingen, three weeks after two other Turkish suspects were also arrested in Germany over the same case. The two men arrested in October are in custody ahead of their possible extradition to Poland. Polish prime minister Donald Tusk has called the fire an “act of hybrid warfare”, at a time when Ukraine’s allies have accused Moscow of such hybrid attacks . Ukraine has opened an investigation into reports a group of alleged army deserters had been held against their will , an incident that renewed focus on the sensitive issue of military conscription during Russia’s invasion. The State Bureau of Investigation (SBI) announced the probe after reports circulated on social media of “the allegedly illegal detention of soldiers” at a house in the Kyiv region, it said in a statement on Tuesday. Agence France-Presse reported videos circulating on social media showed angry crowds outside the house, where the SBI said clashes had erupted. Management at Ukraine’s Russian-held Zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant ⁠said on Tuesday that a Ukrainian drone had killed two people ⁠in a car , ⁠including a ​female employee. The statement gave no indication where the ⁠incident occurred. It said the employee was the third killed in the past ⁠two weeks and the 13th since April. “Attacks on ​civilian cars, killing ‌of peaceful ‌people – this is targeted terrorism. People must not ‌become targets,” the statement said. Ukraine did not comment. Norway, Denmark, Sweden and the Czech Republic will refuse to play Russia at the next year’s men’s Ice Hockey world champion ship in Germany due to safety concerns and ⁠geopolitical tensions, their national federations said ⁠Tuesday. The Court of ​Arbitration for Sport (CAS) ruled last week to allow Russia to compete in International Ice Hockey Federation (IIHF) events again, overturning the governing body’s decision to exclude Russian teams following Moscow’s invasion of Ukraine in 2022.

  • There were protests at Old Trafford and even though two academy products stood out, Michael Carrick’s future is far from safe Green and yellow balloons bobbed around the Stretford End. Tennis balls rained down on the pitch in protest at the chronic, enduringly cinematic decline presided over by Manchester United’s ownership. Then came a reminder of the humble football’s extraordinary power to bend history, minds and wills. United’s players departed victorious having somehow won the game within the game, separating themselves from the fog of unhappy context swirling on all sides and turning the second half into its own soaring, ripping story for the ages. Will it be enough to save Michael Carrick, who was once again serenaded when minds wandered from the joint scourges of the Glazer family and Jim Ratcliffe? If Aston Villa defend a shade more competently than Roma on Sunday then perhaps not. United have led their supporters, remarkable in their tenor of backing for players and head coach here, up more than enough false peaks over the past 13 years. Arguably, that is one reason for Carrick being given the job on a permanent basis. Continue reading...

Tuesday’s midterm elections didn’t appear to have a huge impact on Wall Street, though investors are predicting Democrats get at least a majority in the House and potentially gain seats in the Senate, which could lead to more AI regulation.

  • Top election lawyer and lawmakers received notes over alleged scheme to confuse voters with two Dan Sullivans US midterms 2026 live – latest updates The justice department has sent letters to a top Democratic election lawyer and other Democrats informing them they could be targets in a federal investigation into efforts to get an Alaska man with the same name as Republican senator Daniel Sullivan on to the ballot. The decision to send the letters is very unusual. The justice department has long avoided taking actions that could affect an election close to election day. It is also not common to send out target letters so early in an investigation; receiving a target letter does not mean that a person will be charged with a crime. Continue reading...

  • Michael Carrick enjoyed one of his finest nights as a Manchester United player in the Champions League against Roma, scoring twice in a 7-1 win in the quarter-final, second leg in 2007. The re-run here was all about his managerial survival at the club. The situation looked impossibly grim for him at half-time. Amid an atmosphere of continued fan anger towards the United ownership, Carrick’s team had been implausibly bad. Roma took a 2-0 lead into the break and the truth was that the scoreline greatly flattered United. Continue reading...

The search for her 19-year-old daughter is ongoing. Continue reading...

If it is given ⁠the go-ahead, the ⁠justice department said it ​expected an initial six to eight months of construction focused on excavation and foundation work that could begin as soon as Thursday, with above-ground construction ⁠beginning in May 2027 at the earliest.
