"title": "UK's Starmer vows to fight after rival Burnham wins big",
"body": "Prime Minister Keir Starmer insists he will not walk away from his job, vowing to fight any challenge from his leading party rival Andy Burnham and potentially ushering in a new bout of political instability in Britain.\n\nBurnham, the Greater Manchester mayor, won a decisive victory for the governing Labour Party in an election for a parliamentary seat in northwest England,and has signalled that he will use his seat to enter any contest to replace Starmer.\n\nSeveral Labour MPs said the prime minister should consider stepping down.\n\nBut Starmer, who won a landslide election in 2024, said he was \"not going to walk away\", reeling off a list of actions during his two years in power: closer ties to the European Union, stabilising the economy and reducing waiting times for the health service.\n\n\"If there is a contest ... then yes, I will run, I will stand, and I've said repeatedly I'm not going to walk away,\" Starmer told reporters in London on Friday during a visit designed to indicate it was \"business as usual\" for him.\n\nHe again warned of the dangers of a potentially disruptive leadership campaign.\n\nHis resistance to growing Labour calls to set a timetable to step down could threaten hopes of an orderly transition by putting divisions on public display in a leadership contest.\n\nBurnham won the contest in Makerfield in northwest England with 54.8 per cent of the vote, beating the candidate for the populist Reform UK, on 34.5 per cent, and boosting his image as someone who could halt the rise of veteran Brexit campaigner Nigel Farage's party.\n\nHis victory not only sent him back to parliament, but also boosted the hopes of some worried Labour MPs that they can win the next national election, due in 2029, something some Labour MPs say Starmer, struggling with some of the worst popularity ratings of any British leader, cannot achieve.\n\nBurnham used his victory speech in Makerfield to say he wanted to counter the rise of polarising, populist politics and turn Britain \"away from the path that takes us to a divided, dark politics of the kind we see in the United States\".\n\nHe hailed the result as a \"turning point\" for Labour.\n\n\"We must hear it, we must act upon it, and we must get it right,\" he said.\n\n\"There will be no second chance.\"\n\nBurnham, a 56-year-old career politician, has backed the nationalisation of key public services and criticised what he called four decades of failed neo-liberal economics.\n\nPolls indicate he would win a formal leadership contest.\n\nThat would mean Britain installing its seventh prime minister in about a decade, the highest turnover in nearly two centuries - a reflection of voter anger at successive failures to improve living standards and public services and tackle illegal immigration.\n\nStarmer, 63, has repeatedly vowed to fight on despite scandals, policy U-turns and accusations of indecision, wanting to finish his five-year term by fulfilling his promise to solve some of Britain's most pressing problems.\n\nBut about a quarter of his MPs have urged him to quit since Labour suffered heavy losses in local elections in May, and senior colleagues, including the defence and health ministers, have resigned.\n\nSeveral Labour MPs said the scale of Burnham's win should force Starmer to consider stepping aside.\n\nMany Labour MPs fear losing their seats in the next election to Farage's party, which leads opinion polls.\n\nAnother of Starmer's rivals, former health minister Wes Streeting, said he would force a contest soon unless the prime minister announced when he would stand down.\n\nHe said Burnham's victory was proof that Labour needed to change.",

"title": "AI firms stealing music from Aussie icons",
"body": "Aussie music icons are missing out on millions in royalties because their work is being stolen by AI, a leading copyright watchdog has claimed.\n\nMusic from the likes of Kylie Minogue, Nick Cave, Sia and countless others is being added to giant datasets being shared within the AI-development community.\n\nAnd an \"AI Watchdog\" tool set up by The Atlantic has shone a light on just which songs by big name Aussie artists have been pinched in this way.\n\nAccording to a study by the Australasian Performing Right Association (APRA) and Australasian Mechanical Copyright Owners Society (AMCOS), this is being done without the artists being compensated in any way.\n\n\"This week, AI companies are asking the Australian and New Zealand governments for a copyright carve-out,\" David Ormston, chief executive of APRA AMCOS, said.\n\n\"This week, we can show you exactly what they have already taken. No permission. No licence, No payment.\n\n\"These are not bargaining chips, they are the life's work of Australian and New Zealand songwriters.\"\n\nThe AI Watchdog tool contains a vast, searchable database which shows just how many songs by an artist have been shared with the AI-development community.\n\nIt also tells exactly which songs have been included in these song databases, which APRA AMCOS says is \"deeply concerning\".\n\nAussie pop princess Kylie Minogue, for example, has seen 940 of her songs included in a single dataset, including Spinning Around, Can't Get You Out of My Head and All the Lovers.\n\nAnd proving the matter is not confined to single genres, her one-time collaborator and fellow Aussie icon Nick Cave has seen 216 of his tracks in another dataset, including God Is in the House, Jubilee Street and Conversion.\n\nThe Bad Seeds frontman has also seen his literary works fall victim to datasets, including his recently-adapted novel The Death of Bunny Munro.\n\nOther Aussie artists who have seen their work given this treatment include Sia, INXS and Crowded House\n\n\"Major tech platforms have not come to the table. Not once,\" Mr Ormston added.\n\n\"Instead, they have lobbied governments, circulated policy papers, and proposed solutions designed to extinguish any obligation to pay.\n\n\"The only path forward is a genuine licensing conversation with the people whose work they have been using.\"\n\nAPRA and AMCOS claim that without a mandatory licensing framework, artists and creators in Australia and New Zealand stand to miss out on more than $500m over just four years.",

"title": "5 destinations within 300 km of Hyderabad that are perfect for a weekend getaway",
"body": "From ancient forts and temple towns to forested hills and scenic reservoirs, these destinations within 300 km of Hyderabad are perfect for a refreshing weekend escape. Pixabay\n\nHyderabad has many charms right from its food and history to energetic pace and culture. But every now and then, the city inspires a different urge: the desire to get away.\n\nThe good news is that you don't need a long holiday or a flight booking to find a change of scenery.\n\nWithin a few hours of the city are forested hills, ancient forts, sacred temples, lakes and centuries-old monuments that feel worlds away from the bustle of urban life.\n\nIf you're looking to swap traffic for open roads this weekend, these five destinations within 300 kilometres of Hyderabad deserve a place on your travel list.\n\n1. Ananthagiri Hills: Hyderabad's closest nature escape\n\nDistance from Hyderabad: Approximately 80-90 km\n\nWhen Hyderabad's summer heat becomes overwhelming, Ananthagiri Hills offers a welcome respite.\n\nLocated near Vikarabad, this green retreat is one of the nearest hill getaways from the city and is known for its forests, trekking trails and misty mornings during the monsoon and winter months.\n\nUnlike commercial hill stations, Ananthagiri's appeal lies in its simplicity. The winding roads, pockets of dense woodland and peaceful atmosphere make it ideal for travellers seeking a quiet day outdoors.\n\nArrive early in the morning and you'll find hikers setting off on trails while others simply settle in to enjoy the fresh air and panoramic views of the surrounding landscape.\n\n2. Nagarjuna Sagar: Where history meets engineering\n\nDistance from Hyderabad: Approximately 150-165 km\n\nMost visitors come to Nagarjuna Sagar for the dam, one of India's largest masonry dams, but there's much more to this destination than concrete and water.\n\nThe region is steeped in Buddhist history. Nagarjunakonda, an island museum in the reservoir, preserves artefacts and archaeological remains linked to one of ancient India's most important Buddhist centres. Nearby, the Ethipothala Falls provide a scenic detour, especially after the monsoon.\n\nThe contrast between ancient heritage and modern engineering makes Nagarjuna Sagar one of the most fascinating day trips from Hyderabad.\n\n3. Bidar: The forgotten capital of the Deccan\n\nDistance from Hyderabad: Approximately 145 km\n\nCross into neighbouring Karnataka and you'll arrive in Bidar, a city that often flies under the radar despite its extraordinary history.\n\nOnce the capital of the Bahmani Sultanate, Bidar is home to imposing fortifications, elegant tombs and centuries-old Islamic architecture.\n\nThe sprawling Bidar Fort remains the star attraction, with its gateways, bastions and palace ruins offering a glimpse into a powerful medieval kingdom that once dominated much of the Deccan Plateau.\n\nFor history enthusiasts, few weekend destinations near Hyderabad offer such a rich blend of architecture, culture and storytelling.\n\n4. Warangal: A journey into Telangana's royal past\n\nDistance from Hyderabad: Approximately 150 km\n\nBefore Hyderabad emerged as the region's dominant city, Warangal was the capital of the mighty Kakatiya dynasty. Today, it remains one of Telangana's most rewarding heritage destinations.\n\nThe city's standout attractions include the historic Warangal Fort and the famous Thousand Pillar Temple, both reminders of the architectural achievements of the Kakatiya rulers.\n\nBeyond the monuments, nearby lakes and countryside provide opportunities to slow down and appreciate the region's natural beauty.\n\nWarangal is particularly appealing for travellers who enjoy combining culture, photography and local history in a single trip.\n\n5. Srisailam: A road trip you'll remember\n\nDistance from Hyderabad: Approximately 215-230 km\n\nSome destinations are as much about the journey as the arrival. Srisailam is one of them.\n\nThe drive through the Nallamala forests is among the most scenic road journeys in southern India. Long stretches of forested roads, rolling hills and occasional wildlife sightings create a sense of adventure before you've even reached town.\n\nSrisailam itself is best known for the revered Mallikarjuna Temple, one of the twelve Jyotirlinga shrines dedicated to Lord Shiva. Yet even travellers who aren't on a pilgrimage are often drawn to the area's dramatic landscapes, viewpoints, dam and surrounding forest.\n\nWhether you're seeking spirituality, nature or simply a memorable drive, Srisailam delivers all three.",

"body": "Prime Minister Keir Starmer insists he will not walk away from his job, vowing to fight any challenge from his leading party rival Andy Burnham and potentially ushering in a new bout of political instability in Britain.\n\nBurnham, the Greater Manchester mayor, won a decisive victory for the governing Labour Party in an election for a parliamentary seat in northwest England,and has signalled that he will use his seat to enter any contest to replace Starmer.\n\nSeveral Labour MPs said the prime minister should consider stepping down.\n\nBut Starmer, who won a landslide election in 2024, said he was \"not going to walk away\", reeling off a list of actions during his two years in power: closer ties to the European Union, stabilising the economy and reducing waiting times for the health service.\n\n\"If there is a contest ... then yes, I will run, I will stand, and I've said repeatedly I'm not going to walk away,\" Starmer told reporters in London on Friday during a visit designed to indicate it was \"business as usual\" for him.\n\nHe again warned of the dangers of a potentially disruptive leadership campaign.\n\nHis resistance to growing Labour calls to set a timetable to step down could threaten hopes of an orderly transition by putting divisions on public display in a leadership contest.\n\nBurnham won the contest in Makerfield in northwest England with 54.8 per cent of the vote, beating the candidate for the populist Reform UK, on 34.5 per cent, and boosting his image as someone who could halt the rise of veteran Brexit campaigner Nigel Farage's party.\n\nHis victory not only sent him back to parliament, but also boosted the hopes of some worried Labour MPs that they can win the next national election, due in 2029, something some Labour MPs say Starmer, struggling with some of the worst popularity ratings of any British leader, cannot achieve.\n\nBurnham used his victory speech in Makerfield to say he wanted to counter the rise of polarising, populist politics and turn Britain \"away from the path that takes us to a divided, dark politics of the kind we see in the United States\".\n\nHe hailed the result as a \"turning point\" for Labour.\n\n\"We must hear it, we must act upon it, and we must get it right,\" he said.\n\n\"There will be no second chance.\"\n\nBurnham, a 56-year-old career politician, has backed the nationalisation of key public services and criticised what he called four decades of failed neo-liberal economics.\n\nPolls indicate he would win a formal leadership contest.\n\nThat would mean Britain installing its seventh prime minister in about a decade, the highest turnover in nearly two centuries - a reflection of voter anger at successive failures to improve living standards and public services and tackle illegal immigration.\n\nStarmer, 63, has repeatedly vowed to fight on despite scandals, policy U-turns and accusations of indecision, wanting to finish his five-year term by fulfilling his promise to solve some of Britain's most pressing problems.\n\nBut about a quarter of his MPs have urged him to quit since Labour suffered heavy losses in local elections in May, and senior colleagues, including the defence and health ministers, have resigned.\n\nSeveral Labour MPs said the scale of Burnham's win should force Starmer to consider stepping aside.\n\nMany Labour MPs fear losing their seats in the next election to Farage's party, which leads opinion polls.\n\nAnother of Starmer's rivals, former health minister Wes Streeting, said he would force a contest soon unless the prime minister announced when he would stand down.\n\nHe said Burnham's victory was proof that Labour needed to change.",

"body": "Victoria is exploring giving up 16 stalls at the Johnson Street parkade for an allotment garden, but the union says it should be providing parking for firefighters first.\n\nThe union representing Victoria firefighters says its members are angry that the city is considering replacing parking stalls on a parkade rooftop with garden beds while firefighters at the department's Johnson Street headquarters have not been provided parking.\n\nVictoria council is exploring giving up 16 stalls at the Johnson Street parkade for an allotment garden.\n\n\"Our members are angry, and they have every right to be,\" Josh Montgomery, president of the Victoria Firefighters Association, IAFF Local 730, said in a statement.\n\nThe city has eliminated employer-provided parking for those reporting to work at the downtown headquarters on Johnson near Cook Street.\n\nWhile firefighters did not have parking spots in the underground parking at the mixed-use headquarters building, which opened in 2023, they were allowed to park at the old Firehall No. 2 at 1240 Yates St. a few blocks away.\n\nBut when the city moved other departments into that building, firefighters lost those parking spots.\n\nIn an interview, Montgomery said they need between 20 and 25 spots for the eight to 14 firefighters on shift at any one time at Johnson Street, as well as spaces for administration and inspection staff.\n\nThe union said it proposed a number of solutions, ranging from painting curbs red on Camosun Street beside the old Yates Street fire hall to reserve them for firefighter parking, or doing the same across the street from the hall on Yates Street.\n\nThey also proposed having firefighters park at the No. 3 firehall at 740 Bay St. and running a shuttle to headquarters. The city rejected all the options.\n\n\"Dedicated firefighter parking was deemed an unreasonable use of public assets. Now we're hearing there is excess parking capacity and that those same assets could be repurposed for garden plots. That contradiction speaks for itself.\"\n\nMontgomery said providing parking for firefighters reporting for duty or emergency call-ins is standard practice throughout North America. Firefighters responding to a call-in should be focused on getting into service, not searching for parking, he said.\n\nHe said not only do all other Victoria firefighters have parking provided at the other stations, every fire department in Western Canada provides parking for its members.\n\n\"We would be the anomaly in Western Canada that we are aware of,\" he said. \"This isn't a perk. It's an operational requirement.\"\n\nMontgomery said the City of Victoria has a rule that firefighters can't work one minute more than their 24-hour shift. So if a firefighter coming into work can't find parking and is delayed getting to the firehall, the firefighter who just worked a full shift can't get on the fire truck for a call, and it can't roll out without a full complement.\n\nHe said the frustration comes from hearing several city councillors saying that there's plenty of vacant stalls at the Johnson Street parkade, and the city should consider converting them to something other than parking.\n\n\"If there's enough excess parking capacity to build garden beds, there should be enough parking to support all first responders who protect Victoria 24 hours a day,\" Montgomery said.\n\nLast week, council asked its staff to study the possibility of garden beds for the rooftop of the six-storey Johnson Street parkade.\n\nThe idea was floated by councillors Dave Thompson, Jeremy Caradonna and Krista Loughton on behalf of the Victoria Downtown Residents Association, which has been asking the city for more space for gardening for years.\n\nThompson said demand for downtown gardening is exceeding supply, and the association has a wait-list of 160 people for space at its community garden on Yates Street.\n\nIn an emailed statement, the City of Victoria said it values its firefighters, noting pay parking is available under the Johnson Street headquarters, along with paid on-street parking.\n\nThe city said that no city staff are provided with free parking.\n\n\"The union has engaged the grievance process which is the appropriate avenue to address the matter,\" the city said. \"That process remains underway.\"",

"title": "True Love vs Precise: Irish rival horses set to be favourites in Coronation Stakes at Ascot",
"body": "Friday's Coronation Stakes at Royal Ascot is shaping up as the race of the week. Two Aidan O'Brien fillies, True Love and Precise, two Classic wins between them, and a score to settle. If you only watch one race this week, make it this one.\n\nThe Group 1 contest goes off at 4.20pm on Friday 19 June over a mile, with £650,000 in prize money on the line, and with thousands of people betting on the races, including free bets, multiples, and outlandish longshots.\n\nAscot is almost here, so here's a guide to the most exciting race of the week for Irish entrants.\n\nTrue Love and Precise: the story so far\n\nThe rivalry between these two fillies is already one of the Flat Season's most exciting subplots, especially for Irish fans.\n\nTrue Love won the 1,000 Guineas at Newmarket in May in serious style. She settled beautifully, quickened when asked, and left observers certain she was a filly with plenty more wins in the tank. O'Brien named the Coronation Stakes as the target immediately after the race.\n\nPrecise then went and flipped the script, winning the Irish 1,000 Guineas when the pair met again. In their two meetings, they have won one race apiece. O'Brien, trainer of both fillies, will have earmarked Ascot as the deciding moment for the two.\n\nThe case for True Love\n\nTrue Love might be priced behind Precise, but she's among the favourites for good reason. Her Newmarket win was visually striking, and she is a filly who has improved with every run.\n\nShe is already a five-time winner in stakes company, a record that speaks to her consistency at the top level. That includes winning the Group 2 Queen Mary Stakes at Royal Ascot last year as a two-year-old, making her a proven course winner returning to a track she has already conquered.\n\nThe case for Precise\n\nPrecise carries the Irish Classic form into this race and arrives having beaten True Love in their most recent meeting. That counts for a lot at a venue where confidence and recent momentum matter.\n\nBoth fillies are trained by O'Brien, which means the preparation and the homework will have been similar.\n\nOn the day, it comes down to which filly handles Ascot's round mile better, and which peaks at the right moment on a Friday afternoon in Berkshire. Oddsmakers also favour Precise, currently pricing her at 4/5 to True Love's 9/2\n\nWhy this is the race of the week\n\nThe Coronation Stakes rarely produces a dud, but this year's edition has a genuine subplot built in. It is not just a Classic trial or a form guide exercise. It is a straight rematch between two fillies who have already history and a genuine rivalry.\n\nWhichever wins on Friday settles the argument, at least for now. The fact is, both are trained out of Ballydoyle, which means unless there is a shock result, O'Brien wins either way.",

"title": "Papers Sought: Political Orality in Europe & Beyond",
"body": "How did political actors speak when confronted with perceived threats to the existing order? And how did such speech, in turn, shape political outcomes over time?\n\nFor the early modern period, scholarly interest in political orality has been driven largely by the challenge of recovering political processes from fragmentary and mediated sources. For the modern period, by contrast, it has been shaped primarily by a sustained interest in democracy: its emergence, functioning, and durability.\n\nThis workshop aims to bring these traditions together and invites contributions, from both sides of the 1800 divide, that examine political speech (formal and informal, public and private) in which political authority was negotiated, challenged, and, at times, quietly reshaped. Rather than treating political change only as the sudden outcome of institutional crisis or ideological innovation, the workshop starts from the premise that change often took place in and through discourse, conversation and debate. It asks how political elites and their opponents identified threats, assessed their implications, and sought to persuade others of their chosen course of action.\n\nThe workshop is part of Quiet Rebels, a larger research project at Leiden University on political orality in the Netherlands and beyond, spanning the early modern and modern periods. It is organized by Jasper Dekker, Duvera Herfst, Anne Heyer, Lauren Lauret, Yann Ryan and Jasper van der Steen.\n\nThemes and Questions\n\nWe welcome papers that engage with one or more of the following topics:\n\n* Political speech both reflecting and driving processes of political change\n\n* Oral interaction in which people deal with certain ideas, groups, or developments they consider threats\n\n* Dynamics of persuasion, confrontation, and compromise in political settings\n\n* Political orality in contexts where speech was only partially recorded or mediated through written sources\n\n* Circulation and transfer of rhetorical practices and threat discourses across regions, polities, and empires\n\n* Role of informal or private settings (households, correspondence, sociability) in shaping political conversation\n\n* Changing perceptions of threat over time\n\n* Differentiations between 'emotional' and 'rational' discourse\n\n* New methodological approaches, including digital and computational tools, for recovering 'oral traces' and in larger source corpora\n\nScope\n\nThe workshop adopts a broad chronological and geographical perspective. We are especially interested in contributions that connect political speech and orality to political change and/or reflect on methodological challenges in studying political speech.\n\nFormat\n\nThe workshop will take place over two days at Leiden University. Papers (3000-6000 words) will be pre-circulated by 5 March 2027, and each session will be organised around a 15-minute presentation. The contributions will be considered for publication in a special issue of a leading journal of history.\n\nSubmission\n\nPlease submit an abstract of 250-300 words and a short biographical note (max. 150 words) to project assistant Duvera Herfst ([email protected]) by 16 October 2026. We aim to send notifications of acceptance by 30 October 2026. The research project aims to reimburse costs of travel and accommodation.\n\n/Public Release.

"body": "Prime Minister Keir Starmer insists he will not walk away from his job, vowing to fight any challenge from his leading party rival Andy Burnham and potentially ushering in a new bout of political instability in Britain.\n\nBurnham, the Greater Manchester mayor, won a decisive victory for the governing Labour Party in an election for a parliamentary seat in northwest England,and has signalled that he will use his seat to enter any contest to replace Starmer.\n\nSeveral Labour MPs said the prime minister should consider stepping down.\n\nBut Starmer, who won a landslide election in 2024, said he was \"not going to walk away\", reeling off a list of actions during his two years in power: closer ties to the European Union, stabilising the economy and reducing waiting times for the health service.\n\n\"If there is a contest ... then yes, I will run, I will stand, and I've said repeatedly I'm not going to walk away,\" Starmer told reporters in London on Friday during a visit designed to indicate it was \"business as usual\" for him.\n\nHe again warned of the dangers of a potentially disruptive leadership campaign.\n\nHis resistance to growing Labour calls to set a timetable to step down could threaten hopes of an orderly transition by putting divisions on public display in a leadership contest.\n\nBurnham won the contest in Makerfield in northwest England with 54.8 per cent of the vote, beating the candidate for the populist Reform UK, on 34.5 per cent, and boosting his image as someone who could halt the rise of veteran Brexit campaigner Nigel Farage's party.\n\nHis victory not only sent him back to parliament, but also boosted the hopes of some worried Labour MPs that they can win the next national election, due in 2029, something some Labour MPs say Starmer, struggling with some of the worst popularity ratings of any British leader, cannot achieve.\n\nBurnham used his victory speech in Makerfield to say he wanted to counter the rise of polarising, populist politics and turn Britain \"away from the path that takes us to a divided, dark politics of the kind we see in the United States\".\n\nHe hailed the result as a \"turning point\" for Labour.\n\n\"We must hear it, we must act upon it, and we must get it right,\" he said.\n\n\"There will be no second chance.\"\n\nBurnham, a 56-year-old career politician, has backed the nationalisation of key public services and criticised what he called four decades of failed neo-liberal economics.\n\nPolls indicate he would win a formal leadership contest.\n\nThat would mean Britain installing its seventh prime minister in about a decade, the highest turnover in nearly two centuries - a reflection of voter anger at successive failures to improve living standards and public services and tackle illegal immigration.\n\nStarmer, 63, has repeatedly vowed to fight on despite scandals, policy U-turns and accusations of indecision, wanting to finish his five-year term by fulfilling his promise to solve some of Britain's most pressing problems.\n\nBut about a quarter of his MPs have urged him to quit since Labour suffered heavy losses in local elections in May, and senior colleagues, including the defence and health ministers, have resigned.\n\nSeveral Labour MPs said the scale of Burnham's win should force Starmer to consider stepping aside.\n\nMany Labour MPs fear losing their seats in the next election to Farage's party, which leads opinion polls.\n\nAnother of Starmer's rivals, former health minister Wes Streeting, said he would force a contest soon unless the prime minister announced when he would stand down.\n\nHe said Burnham's victory was proof that Labour needed to change.",
