The Telegraph: Lineker: BBC wanted me to quit Match of the Day
Gary Lineker claims the BBC forced him out of "Match of the Day," suggesting bosses preferred to replace him during contract negotiations. He dismissed backlash over his social media comments as an overreaction but acknowledged he wouldn't make the Nazi comparison again.
Lineker will continue to host the BBC’s FA Cup and World Cup coverage, while new presenters will take over "Match of the Day." He believes the changes align with the new rights period and expressed that the situation suits him well.

Le Monde: Economist Antoine Bouët: 'Among high-income countries, the US will suffer the most from Trump's trade war'
Donald Trump has initiated a global trade war with significant reciprocal tariffs, including increases of 20% for the EU, 34% for China, and 37% for Bangladesh. This follows earlier tariffs on steel, aluminum, and automobiles, despite existing trade agreements like NAFTA.
A potential escalation could have raised US tariffs to over 30%, leading to a projected 0.8% decrease in global GDP and a 4.2% drop in global trade. The resulting uncertainty could further hinder investment and economic growth worldwide.

GB News: Britain will make more explosives in attempt to be less dependent on the US and France for ammunition
Britain plans to enhance its military production capabilities by establishing new sites for RDX explosives, aiming to reduce reliance on US and French ammunition. BAE Systems will increase production rates significantly, with new facilities expected to support the British Army's artillery needs by 2026.
Chancellor Rachel Reeves has allocated £2.2 billion for defense improvements, emphasizing the importance of strengthening home-grown production in light of global tensions. This initiative is seen as crucial for enhancing the UK's industrial resilience and defense capabilities.
