Rotherham, a UK town infamous for the grooming gang scandal involving predominantly British-Pakistani men, has appointed Rukhsana Ismail—a British-Pakistani woman—as mayor. Though chosen by council members, not public vote, the move sparked backlash online. Critics argue it's insensitive to victims, calling it a "cruel twist" and accusing the UK of cultural erasure. Others defend Ismail’s appointment as merit-based and unrelated to past crimes. The controversy reignites debates around identity, justice, and Islamophobia in a deeply fractured political climate.

The former CEO of Aston Martin says tariffs are "very bad for the car industry" and worries that the US will "no longer be competitive with the Chinese" in AI and new energy as a result.
