Europe region faces 700,000 more Covid deaths by March, says WHO – BBC News
The Fifa 2026 World Cup kicks off this week.
Beginning Thursday, football – or soccer – matches, depending on your preference, will be played in the US, Mexico, and Canada, with a record 48 nations competing for the trophy.
However, the tournament has been beset by controversies over ticket prices, travel bans that affect fans and officials, and security concerns.
We answer questions from the audience about what to expect from this year’s World Cup, with BBC Sports football issues correspondent, Dale Johnson.
Both Sep Blatter and Michel Platini had their bans reduced – Blatter to six years and Platini to four. In terms of the Swiss court cases, they have both been acquitted – once in 2022 and then again when Swiss authorities prosecuted again and lost again in March 2025.

Keir Starmer says under-16s will be banned from social media by spring 2027.
“A full ban is the right choice… I am not prepared to compromise on the safety and happiness of our children,” Starmer said in a televised statement.
As he made the statement live in Downing Street he was watched on The BBC Breakfast sofa by seven parents whose children died while using social media.

Iran’s chief negotiator says there’s “no point” in continuing talks with the US after Israel launched a strike on Beirut.
It comes after US President Donald Trump said a deal would be signed on Sunday.
Israel says it struck a command centre run by the Iran-backed group Hezbollah, and adds that Hezbollah attacked Israel “unprovoked” – Lebanese officials say three people have been killed.

James Cunningham hadn’t slept. He’d been up all night “fighting for his life”.
The 27-year-old from Ware in Hertfordshire was trying to save a virtual empire from the brink of destruction – using a keyboard and mouse.
James says he “didn’t expect everything to go wrong”, recalling the explosive conflict that broke out in June 2025. “But it did.”
He’d spent thousands of hours – up to 16 a day – and roughly £6,000 playing EVE Online, a role-playing game played by tens of thousands of people around the world.

Another load of crap spilled by the BBC scaring the shit out of old people. All through this pandemic you have followed useless scientists who have been miles away with their forecasts because you are clueless as an left wing organisation. Hold your heads in shame you're a load of bullshitting lowlife.

Hawaii has a better percent indoor mask policy but has failed to successfully apply quarantine in a humane manner. The states the only one in the nation incarcerating people over covid, in a non quarantined way.
Not only is the law unconstitutional as it wasn't approved by the states congress, the method of implementation is superceded by a monetary value while hoards of antivaxxers March down the streets of Waikiki covering their support of Trump and gathering a following while holding foot parades.

So what? Everybody's going to get covid-19 & vaccinated most likely to survive! Controlling individuals demanding obedience for fallacy measures, that aren't going to change that, is Domestic abuse.

Our old , ill and those commencing cancer treatments , young people on immunosuppressive drugs ,all have annual flu vaccines in U.K. yearly. We are all educated to know it may not stop us getting the flu but it may make the difference to us developing pneumonia and dieing. All vaccines are given through informed concent , no one is forced.

This occurred to me. So they encourage or force us to get a jab, get infected anyway albeit asymptomatically, go about our business unmasked, infect a bunch of other people, end up with millions infected asymptomatically, then freak out because even more dangerous variants evolve. Strikes me that we have to reduce the numbers of infections.
Just saying.
