Manager Van Nistelrooy Leaves Relegated Leicester

Leicester have announced on Friday that Ruben van Nistelrooy will leave the club after almost ten weeks of being relegated from the Premier League.

Leicester claimed in a statement that they “mutually agreed” with the Dutchman that his contract would end immediately.

After a brief spell as Manchester United’s interim manager, Van Nistelrooy, 48, made his debut for the struggling Foxes in late November.

After only one season in the top division, they returned to the second-tier Championship. However, he was unable to stop their decline.

Leicester remarked, “Ruud has managed to have a challenging time for the club.”

“From the moment he was appointed in November 2024, he approached the role with professionalism, integrity, and a clear commitment to our goals, including by integrating several promising players from the club’s academy into our first-team environment.”

Ruud departs with the respect and gratitude of the entire football club for his hard work and dedication, as well as our very best wishes for the future.

Van Nistelrooy, the club’s former manager, called for discussions with the club’s hierarchy after relegation was confirmed, but he was forced to wait a few weeks.

He said, “I would like to personally thank the Leicester City players, coaches, academy, and all the staff I worked with for my time at the club.

After replacing Steve Cooper, the former Manchester United and Real Madrid striker won four points in their first two games before suffering 15 defeats in their final 16 matches.

They went nine straight home games without scoring in a row, setting a new top-flight record.

In 2023/24, The Foxes were promoted alongside Leicester, along with Ipswich and Southampton, both of whom went down to the Championship.

Under former manager Claudio Ranieri, the club stunned the football world when they won the Premier League championship in 2016 against seemingly unimaginable odds.

After a nine-year hiatus, they were removed from the top division in 2023, but they did so for the time being.

Sheffield Wednesday’s visit on August 10th marks Leicester’s start to their Championship campaign.

After being charged with alleged breaches of financial regulations, the club is facing a potential points penalty.

Swiatek reaches first WTA Tour grass-court final

Iga Swiatek, a five-time Grand Slam champion, defeated Wimbledon runner-up Jasmine Paolini to reach the first grass-court final in Bad Homburg.

Swiatek, a former junior champion at Wimbledon, defeated the Italian 6-1, 6-3.

The former world number one has won ten clay-court titles and 12 hard courts titles.

Swiatek reached Wimbledon’s quarter-finals in 2023, but she hasn’t advanced past the fourth round in any of her other four appearances.

Swiatek’s first victory over a top-10 player on grass comes from defeating world number five Paolini.

Swiatek, 24, said, “I am super happy – I didn’t anticipate this.”

“I just did my job, I knew what I wanted to do, and I made the decision.”

The final of Wimbledon will take place on Saturday, when Jessica Pegula will face the top seed.

In just 29 minutes, Swiatek broke Paolini’s serve three times to win the opener.

Paolini had a quick break in the second set, but Swiatek, one of the top women’s tour players, won six of the final eight games.

The Pole, who has won four French Open titles and one at the US Open, chose to spend a week training in Mallorca before taking on Bad Homburg, where he hasn’t played grass-court competitions this year.

Between her French Open victory and Wimbledon debut, she didn’t play any competitive tennis last year.

Alexandra Eala also advanced to the final at Eastbourne by defeating Frenchwoman Varvara Gracheva 7-5, 2-6, 6-3.

The first player from the Philippines to reach a WTA Tour final is Eala, who memorably stunned Swiatek at the Miami Open in March.

The 20-year-old struggled to win the first set before regrouping to win the decision to win the next five games.

Barbora Krejcikova, the defending Wimbledon champion, will face Eala in the first round of SW19, which is contested by the 74th-ranked Eala.

Political violence is quintessentially American

Violence begets violence, so many religions say. Americans should know. After all, the United States – a nation founded on Indigenous genocide, African enslavement and open rebellion against an imperial power to protect its wealthiest citizens – cannot help but be violent. What’s more, violence in the US is political, and the violence the country has carried out overseas over the generations has always been connected to its imperialist ambitions and racism. From the US bombing of Iran’s nuclear sites on June 21 to the everyday violence in rhetoric and reality within the US, the likes of President Donald Trump continue to stoke the violent impulses of a violence‑prone nation.

The US news cycle serves as continual confirmation. In June alone, there have been several high‑profile shootings and murders. On June 14, Vance Boelter, a white male vigilante, shot and killed former Minnesota House Speaker Melissa Hortman and her husband, Mark, after critically wounding State Senator John Hoffman and his wife, Yvette. That same day, at a No Kings mass protest in Salt Lake City, Utah, peacekeepers with the 50501 Movement accidentally shot and killed Samoan fashion designer Arthur Folasa Ah Loo while attempting to take down Arturo Gamboa, who was allegedly armed with an AR‑15.

On June 1, the start of Pride Month, Sigfredo Ceja Alvarez allegedly shot and murdered gay Indigenous actor Jonathan Joss in San Antonio, Texas. On June 12, Secret Service agents forcibly detained and handcuffed US Senator Alex Padilla during Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem’s news conference in Los Angeles.

Mass shootings, white vigilante violence, police brutality, and domestic terrorism are all normal occurrences in the United States – and all are political. Yet US leaders still react with hollow platitudes that reveal an elitist and narcissistic detachment from the nation’s violent history. “Such horrific violence will not be tolerated in the United States of America. God bless the great people of Minnesota…” said Governor Tim Walz after Boelter’s June 14 shootings. On X, Republican Representative Derrick Van Orden wrote: “Political violence has no place in America. I fully condemn this attack…”

Despite these weak condemnations, the US often tolerates – and sometimes celebrates – political violence. Van Orden also tweeted, “With one horrible governor that appoints political assassins to boards. Good job, stupid,” in response to Walz’s message. Senator Mike Lee referred to the incident as “Nightmare on Waltz Street” before deleting the post.

Political violence in the US is commonplace. President Trump has long fostered it – such as during a presidential debate in Philadelphia, when he falsely claimed Haitian immigrants “eat their neighbours’ pets”. This led to weeks of threats against the roughly 15,000 Haitian immigrants in Springfield, Ohio. On June 9, Trump posted on Truth Social: “IF THEY SPIT, WE WILL HIT… harder than they have ever been hit before.”

That led to a federally-sanctioned wave of violence against protesters in Los Angeles attempting to end Trump’s immigration crackdowns, including Trump’s takeover and deployment of California’s National Guard in the nation’s second-largest city.

But it’s not just that Trump may have a lust for political violence and is stoking such violence. The US has always been a powder keg for violence, a nation-state that cannot help itself.

Political violence against elected officials in the US is too extensive to list fully. Assassins murdered Presidents Abraham Lincoln, James A Garfield, William McKinley, and John F Kennedy. In 1804, Vice‑President Aaron Burr killed Alexander Hamilton in a duel. Populist candidate Huey Long was assassinated in 1935; Robert F Kennedy in 1968; Congresswoman Gabby Giffords was wounded in 2011.

Many assassins and vigilantes have targeted those fighting for social justice: Dr Martin Luther King Jr, Malcolm X, Elijah Parish Lovejoy, Marsha P. Johnson, and civil‑rights activists like Medgar Evers, James Chaney, Andrew Goodman, Michael Schwerner, Viola Liuzzo, and Fred Hampton. Jonathan Joss and Arthur Folasa Ah Loo are more recent examples of marginalised people struck down in a white‑supremacist society.

The most chilling truth of all is that, because of the violent nature of the US, there is no end in sight – domestically or overseas. The recent US bomb mission over Iran is merely the latest unprovoked preemptive attack the superpower has conducted on another nation. Trump’s unilateral use of military force was done, presumably, in support of Israel’s attacks on Iran, allegedly because of the threat Iran poses if it ever arms itself with nuclear weapons. But these are mere excuses that could also be violations of international law.

It wouldn’t be the first time the US has sought to start a war based on questionable intelligence or reasons, however. The most recent example, of course, is the US invasion of Iraq in 2003, a part of George W Bush’s “preemptive war” doctrine, attacking Iraq because they supposedly had a stockpile of WMDs that they could use against the US in the future. There was never any evidence of any stockpile of chemical or biological weapons. As many as 2.4 million Iraqis have died from the resulting violence, statelessness, and civil war that the initial 2003 US invasion created. It has not gone unnoticed that the US mostly bombs and invades nation-states with majority people of colour and non-Christian populations.

Malcolm X said it best, a week after Lee Harvey Oswald assassinated John F Kennedy in 1963: “Being an old farm boy myself, chickens coming home to roost never did make me sad; they’ve always made me glad.” Given that Americans consume nine billion chickens a year, that is a huge amount of retribution to consider for the nation’s history of violence. Short of repealing the Second Amendment’s right-to-bear-guns clause in the US Constitution and a real commitment towards eliminating the threat of white male supremacist terrorism, this violence will continue unabated, with repercussions that will include terrorism and revenge, domestically and internationally. A country with a history of violence, elitism, and narcissism like the US – and an individual like Trump – cannot divorce themselves from their own violent DNA, a violence that could one day consume this nation-state.

Meghan Markle’s go-to dewy face cream launches new lighter version ‘perfect for summer’

The Duchess of Sussex is a fan of this glow-boosting moisturiser, and this has just received a hotly awaited new version for oily and combination skin.

Meghan Markle’s ShopMy page provided fans with a sneak peek at some of her favorite fashion and beauty products when her Instagram account was relatively new, and Tatcha’s Dewy Skin Cream, one of them, caught our attention because it is so popular with experts in the field, was one of her favorites.

Dewy Skin Cream, £67, which is a long-standing favorite of beauty editors and its name suggests, instantly moisturizes and moisturises skin, giving it a lustrous, radiant appearance all day. It looks gorgeous without makeup or if your skin is dry, but those with oily or combination skin might have previously found it to be a little too rich. This updated version is the answer, though.

With new summer skincare hero Hailey Bieber, get her famous “glazed” skin look in no time.

This flattering blush stick immediately gives me the impression of a good night’s sleep, read more.

Tatcha Dewy Milk Moisturizer

The Dewy Milk Moisturizer is only available in Space NK from Tatcha, starting at just £23. This new skincare line has lighter, water-based formula that is ideal for slightly oilier skin types, giving it the same much-loved dewy glow. This highly sought-after new innovation “balances excess oil while providing 2x more skin bounce and a dewy, youthful-looking glow” by including hydration-promoting ingredients like Tatcha’s iconic Japanese purple rice and hyaluronic acid.

If you prefer to use a lighter-in-the-season version of Dewy Milk Moisturizer but prefer the original, which a number of satisfied customers have been pointing out:

One review reads, “This moisturiser works perfectly — even in the heat, it hydrates without making me oily,” and it’s perfect for summer. My skin feels plump and balanced thanks to it, which also gives a lovely glow. I use it during the day and only use it at night. Anyone looking for a light, glowy moisturiser would highly recommend this product!

Another wrote, “I prefer to use this light texture in the summer because it’s a lighter version of the dewy cream.” It absorbs moisture and hydration quickly, but it maintains perfect hydration. More hygienic use is possible because it is in a bottle rather than a jar. I absolutely recommend.”

Another user praised the skin’s radiantity, saying, “I love this moisturiser! My skin glows so beautifully and is very dewy thanks to it. My skin looks more radiant and soft than it does now. Anyone looking for extra hydration and glow in this book would be very wise to read!

However, one user complained that this one just wasn’t for them despite loving Tatcha products. The review concludes that while the moisturiser itself was beautiful, the packaging was unsuitable for my skin. The zinc left it quite sticky and didn’t sag in; it felt like I was applying a zinc SPF, but it also lacked the scent; it would appear to be not a zinc girlie.
