While the Home Office defended the expense as necessary for fostering cooperation, watchdogs condemned it as excessive. The event aimed to strengthen agreements on information sharing amid efforts to reduce illegal migration.

Protests continue outside Yoon's residence, with demonstrators demanding his arrest. Yoon's legal team is contesting the warrants, arguing that the anti-corruption agency lacks authority to investigate rebellion and that police cannot enforce the warrants at his residence.

The Imaginative Conservative: Death at Yuletude: T.S. Eliot and “The Journey of the Magi”
T.S. Eliot's poem "The Journey of the Magi" explores the complexities of religious conversion, portraying the Magus's journey as both arduous and transformative. The Magus reflects on the difficulties faced, ultimately questioning the significance of Christ's birth, which challenges his previous beliefs and leaves him feeling displaced in his own kingdom.
Eliot's work suggests that genuine faith does not diminish artistic expression but rather enriches it, allowing for a nuanced exploration of suffering and hope. His reflections on Christmas convey a deeper understanding of spirituality that acknowledges life's struggles, making his message resonate with those grappling with their own beliefs.
The Imaginative Conservative: The Star of All Hope
The meditation reflects on the significance of Mary in the journey to find Christ, emphasizing her presence at pivotal moments in the Gospel narrative—from Nazareth to Calvary. It connects the theme of hope, illustrated by the Magi's journey guided by a star, culminating in the recognition of Jesus as the embodiment of that hope.
As the Church celebrates the Epiphany, the meditation highlights the enduring hope of God's people throughout history, drawing parallels between biblical figures and the Magi's quest for the divine. The message encourages believers to follow the guiding light toward Christ, embodying the essence of faith and hope.
