Fox News: Washington governor orders flags at full-staff for Trump inauguration despite mourning period for Jimmy Carter
Washington Gov. Bob Ferguson has ordered flags to fly at full-staff for President-elect Donald Trump's inauguration on January 20, 2025, despite President Biden's directive for a 30-day mourning period for former President Jimmy Carter, who passed away on December 29. Flags will revert to half-staff on January 21.
Ferguson is among several governors, including California's Gavin Newsom and Florida's Ron DeSantis, who have chosen to raise flags for Trump's inauguration, breaking with tradition. Trump has criticized the notion of flags being at half-staff during his inauguration, asserting that it reflects poorly on the state of the country.
Times Of Israel: Nine suspects plead not guilty in break-in at Elbit’s UK warehouse
Nine individuals appeared in a London court to deny charges related to a break-in at a warehouse linked to Israeli defense firm Elbit Systems. The group, associated with Palestine Action, allegedly caused significant damage using sledgehammers and faced various charges, including aggravated burglary.
The incident, which occurred in August, involved a repurposed prison van used to access the facility. A trial is set to begin in November, with discussions ongoing about treating the case as a terrorism matter. Anti-Israel protests have intensified following recent conflicts in Gaza.

GB News: Labour 'U-turns' on private school VAT raid for 'families with incomes under £45k'
The UK government will cover VAT charges for lower-income families enrolling gifted students in music and dance programs at private schools, specifically for those earning under £45,000 annually. This initiative aims to support access to specialist courses without reversing the existing VAT policy on private school fees.
Despite the financial aid, concerns persist about potential fee increases for other families, with estimates suggesting boarding school fees could rise significantly if the full VAT is applied. Critics argue the policy is ideologically driven and may lead to a notable decline in enrollment in the independent sector.
