Only Agyemang could overcome Chiellini and Baresi incarnate. You’re not going to be able to ignore her now

My latest @theguardian.com "The IOC handed LA the 2028 Olympics. Now Trump is weaponizing them." Trump has a secret weapon to turn the Games into a national-security crackdown—the National Special Security Event designation, (NSSE)—& we need to be talking about it www.theguardian.com/sport/2025/j...

As the IOC ushers in new leadership, Donald Trump’s second term is already wreaking havoc on LA 28 – and turning a global celebration into a national security crackdown

Desperately sad news regarding the passing of the former Premier League referee, Uriah Rennie. Such a trailblazer and loved by many, many condolences to his family and those who knew him.

Such sad news about South London Press shutting down after more than 100 years. It was the first place that gave me a chance to report when I made the transition from teaching and my year 6 class even made appearance in it. Gutting.

Sad news that the South London Press has closed. It was a great local newspaper.

It also ran one of the greatest local newspaper stories ever*, "Squirrels on crack".

It is easy to look back at 2020 and feel aggrieved, even fooled. But in the British city where slaver Edward Colston’s statue was pulled down, I found cause for optimism, says Guardian writer Jason Okundaye
