GB News: Electric vehicle charging fund could see £950million diverted after failing to deliver a single grant
The £950 million Rapid Charging Fund, aimed at installing high-power chargers at remote motorway service stations, has yet to distribute any funds since its announcement in March 2020. Concerns are growing that the money may be redirected due to delays and industry pressure for alternative uses.
While the government has not made a final decision, discussions suggest the funds could support broader electric vehicle transition initiatives. Industry leaders argue that private investment has advanced public charging infrastructure more effectively, prompting calls to repurpose the fund for other EV support measures, such as reducing VAT on public chargers.

Front Page Magazine: Germany to Hit 3.5% in Defense Spending
France is targeting 5% GDP for defense spending, while Germany aims for 3.5%, following a reform to its debt rules that could unlock €600 billion over a decade. Historically, Germany's military spending has been low, only recently meeting NATO's 2% threshold.
European nations are under pressure to increase military spending, especially in light of threats from Russia and the need for greater independence from U.S. security support. This shift may also help Europe address internal challenges.

Front Page Magazine: California Shows Without Death Penalty, Murderers Keep Killing
California's approach to handling violent offenders is under scrutiny after two women were killed during family visits at Mule Creek State Prison, where inmates are allowed such interactions. Critics argue that allowing visits for convicted murderers poses a significant risk to public safety.
The case highlights the consequences of California's decision to abolish the death penalty, as a man who previously murdered four people has now added another victim to his record. Advocates for reinstating capital punishment argue that compassion for criminals does not prevent further violence.
