Immigration: The UK's shameful Rwanda law: The 'Safety of Rwanda' bill passed on April 23 represents a terrible step backward for Europe's oldest democracy.

lemonde.fr/en/opinion/article/2024/04/25/immigration-the-uk-s-shameful-rwanda-law_6669508_23.html

Quick Glance: British Law on Deportation of Asylum Seekers to Rwanda

The new British deportation law aims to curb illegal migration and secure the reelection of Prime Minister Rishi Sunak.

However, experts doubt the effectiveness of the law in stopping illegal migration to the UK.

Rishi Sunak is under significant pressure due to political challenges in the election year, including inflation and healthcare issues.

The Rwanda law intends to deport migrants without valid papers to Rwanda, although the efficacy of the law is being questioned.

Sunak Commits UK to Spending 2.5% of GDP on Military by 2030: Rishi Sunak pledged to increase defense spending to 2.5% of GDP by end of the decade ...

bloomberg.com/news/articles/2024-04-23/sunak-commits-uk-to-spending-2-5-of-gdp-on-military-by-2030

Quick Glance: Increase in UK defence spending by 2030

Prime Minister Rishi Sunak commits to raising spending to 2.5% of GDP, putting the defence industry on a 'war footing'.

Sunak emphasized the need for deeper stockpiles of munitions and quicker replenishment due to the events in the Ukraine conflict.

The planned increase in defence spending would require significant financial reshuffling, partly through announced measures to reduce the size of the civil service.

Shortly after announcing the pledge to send weapons worth 500 million pounds to Ukraine, this commitment followed.

Netanyahu too ‘busy’ to talk to Sunak after RAF helped repel Iranian attack: Israeli leader faces domestic pressure to rebuff international calls for restraint

ft.com/content/db147abd-4c1e-48ac-9d07-280ec583c526

Quick Glance: Netanyahu's Busy Schedule Hinders Communication with Sunak Post-RAF Assistance Against Iranian Attack

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has not yet managed to engage in a conversation with UK Prime Minister Rishi Sunak following the assistance provided by Royal Air Force warplanes in defending the Jewish state from an Iranian aerial assault.

Efforts are still underway to arrange a discussion between the two leaders, as Netanyahu is under significant domestic pressure to reject calls from the UK, the US, and the EU for restraint after Iran's attack.

Sunak stated in the House of Commons on Monday that the UK is urgently collaborating with allies to de-escalate the situation and prevent further bloodshed, mentioning that he will communicate with Netanyahu 'shortly'.

With Netanyahu's right-wing coalition partners pushing for substantial retaliation against Iran, Israel's western allies are advocating for caution and restraint to prevent a regional conflict.

An elected official accused of mishandling campaign funds has departed from the Conservative Party and declared no intention to participate in the upcoming general election.

Following allegations reported in The Times, Mark Menzies revealed his decision after purportedly using political contributions to address medical costs and settle debts incurred from being confined by individuals demanding a substantial ransom for his release.

Upon a request for scrutiny by Labour, Lancashire Police disclosed their evaluation of 'details' concerning Mr. Menzies. An internal inquiry by the Conservative Party has been initiated to explore potential improprieties in the utilization of their financial resources.

Additionally, the party's internal oversight body will assess whether Mr. Menzies' conduct contravened the Nolan principles of public ethics, encompassing traits like altruism, probity, and candor. The spokesperson affirmed, 'We are prepared to collaborate with law enforcement, if they deem our insights beneficial to any inquiry they opt to conduct.'

Quick Glance: UK Boosts Defense Spending, Provides $620 Million Military Aid to Ukraine

British Prime Minister Rishi Sunak announced an increase in defense spending to 2.5% of GDP by the end of the decade, along with a pledge to provide Ukraine with new military aid totaling $620 million, including weapons, armored vehicles, and ammunition.

Sunak described the heightened spending as the most significant strengthening of national defense in a generation, emphasizing the need to remain vigilant in the face of current geopolitical threats.

Quick Glance: Europe's Economy Falling Behind: Enrico Letta Urges Action

Former Italian Prime Minister Enrico Letta suggests using European savings for the green and digital transition, pooling 10% of state aid, and initiating a new recovery plan to help the European economy catch up with the US.

Letta presented his report on the internal market to the EU-27 in Brussels, highlighting that only a minority of companies and citizens in Europe fully benefit from the internal market, leading to the EU lagging behind the US and China.

European companies underutilize economies of scale in sectors like energy, telecoms, and financial markets within the internal market. The market fragmentation hinders growth and competitiveness against global counterparts.

Letta advocates for creating a fifth freedom for research, innovation, and skills within the internal market and updating competition rules in strategic sectors to promote European champions and ensure consumer protection.

Quick Glance: UK Lawmakers Support Groundbreaking 'Smoke-Free Generation' Bill

The British government's plan for a landmark smoking ban to prevent young people from ever smoking passed its first hurdle in Parliament despite opposition from within Prime Minister Rishi Sunak's Conservative Party.

The bill, announced by Sunak, would make it illegal to sell tobacco products to anyone born after January 1, 2009, creating one of the toughest anti-smoking measures in the world to establish the 'first smoke-free generation' in modern Britain.

The bill also includes measures to crack down on youth vaping, such as banning the sale of cheap disposable vapes and restricting their flavors to prevent children from becoming addicted to nicotine.

The number of people who smoke in the U.K. has declined by two-thirds since the 1970s, but approximately 6.4 million people in the country still smoke, accounting for about 13% of the population. Smoking remains the number one preventable cause of death, disability, and poor health.
