India’s dark shadow on Kashmir falls on Pakistan

13 days ago The Express Tribune

It is part of Indian regime’s new Kashmir where you are told that you are free but you are not actually free. Yet, the silence in Kashmir is being aided and abetted by our allies who have become comfortable bystanders. In 2001, Hindu nationalist Prime Minister Atal Bihari Vajpayee, the then President of Pakistan Pervez Musharraf and Hurriyat leaders of Kashmir wanted to establish lasting peace.

Imran loses hope in back-door talks

Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) Chairman Imran Khan on Saturday announced that he would reveal the date for the party’s much-anticipated long march on coming Friday, saying that he was not expecting any “meaningful result from backchannel talks”. “Political parties always hold backdoor talks but I do not think the ongoing talks will have any meaningful outcome,” the PTI chief said while addressing a news conference, flanked by party leader Azam Swati in Islamabad on Saturday. “Therefore,” he said, “they will not call early elections,” adding through an official statement that holding talks with Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif was fruitless. Imran also lashed out at the “imported government” for the inhuman treatment that was meted out to its political opponents.

Who will replace Truss as UK prime minister?

Liz Truss quit on Thursday after the shortest, most chaotic tenure of any British prime minister, forced out after her economic programme shattered the country's reputation for financial stability and left many people poorer. The sight of yet another unpopular prime minister making a resignation speech in Downing Street - and the start of a new leadership race - underscores just how volatile British politics has become since the 2016 vote to leave the European Union. One senior Conservative lawmaker said Sunak and Mordaunt were willing to keep Hunt as their finance minister. Time to come back," one Conservative lawmaker, James Duddridge, said on Twitter, adding "#bringbackboris". Truss will enter the history books as the prime minister with the shortest tenure, replacing George Canning, who had held the role for 119 days when he died in 1827.

Tottenham boss Antonio Conte claimed he does not have the strength in depth to compete for the Premier League title after Newcastle's 2-1 win ended Spurs' perfect home record this season on Sunday. Newcastle moved into the top four and only two points behind third-placed Tottenham thanks to first-half goals from Callum Wilson and Miguel Almiron. Conte rubbished suggestions his side could challenge for a first league title since 1961 after being thoroughly outplayed in a 2-0 defeat to Manchester United on Wednesday.
