Anti-cycling stories are bad for the UK’s health, says Chris Boardman
Mon, 30 Dec 2024 16:00:40 GMT

Racing champion turned active travel advocate criticises parts of the media for safety scaremongering

The UK’s public health is being directly harmed by anti-cycling coverage in parts of the media, Chris Boardman, who heads the government’s main active travel organisation, has told the Guardian.

Boardman, a former champion cyclist and businessman, leads Active Travel England (ATE) and is at the forefront of government efforts to help people switch from car trips to healthier and more sustainable travel.

Indian gastropub near home of Shakespeare’s wife faces demolition
Mon, 30 Dec 2024 13:55:03 GMT

Cask N Tandoor pub, 200m from Anne Hathaway’s cottage, accused of breaching legal covenant limiting development

A pub that serves “sizzling tandoori dishes” within shouting distance of a Shakespeare heritage site may have to be demolished as the result of planning objections.

The Shakespeare Birthplace Trust has claimed that the Cask N Tandoor pub was built in breach of a legal covenant that limits development on land owned by the hotelier Rakesh Singh.

And the UK winners of the 2024 awards for appalling customer service are …
Mon, 30 Dec 2024 10:00:35 GMT

Reflecting on a year of unfair decisions and shoddy treatment, we put the worst-offending firms on the podium

For years I have lived a lie. I have lambasted corporate Britain for letting the populace down. I’ve self-righteously blamed airlines for leaving passengers grounded, I’ve hounded energy firms for slugging pensioners with invented bills and exposed councils and insurers for pushing households into homelessness. These last 12 months it’s dawned on me that my ire has been misplaced. The fault lies squarely with consumers and their penchant for illicit activity.

Take those airline passengers. Observer readers, it seems, have form when it comes to trying to smuggle illegal items on board. If it weren’t for the vigilance of airline customer services, a blind Paralympian would brazenly have taken his assistance dog on a flight to a sporting championship, while airport security staff have, time and again, safeguarded the travelling public by confiscating the walking sticks of pensioners.

A winter’s trail: seasonal UK walks from Devon to Scotland
Mon, 30 Dec 2024 07:00:30 GMT

The stark landscapes of mid-winter are the best time for enjoying the elements on these routes. Our writers tell us the personal stories behind their favourite hikes

You can concertina this walk into a couple of hours, or else pack a lunch, take all day and let it breathe. Its centrepiece is Derwent Edge, a line in the sky running south to north, the preferred direction of travel, past a series of rocks and outcrops with down-to-earth names, like the Wheel Stones, the Salt Cellar and the Cakes of Bread, that don’t do justice to their sculptural mystery.

The best electric toothbrushes: prioritise your pearly whites with our expert-tested picks, from Oral-B to Philips
Sun, 29 Dec 2024 15:00:10 GMT

Electric toothbrushes promise healthier teeth and gums and can transform your oral hygiene. We put more than 20 models to the test to reveal the best for every budget

If you grew up using a conventional toothbrush – essentially a stick with bristles on the end – you may be surprised to learn just how long the electric toothbrush has been around. The first was designed in the late 1930s, but that model was a long way from the sleek, feature-packed and Bluetooth-enabled beasts you can buy today.

There are now dozens of ultra-advanced versions on the market, but which ones are worth your cash? For the past two months, my teeth have become figurative guinea pigs to help you find the answer to that question. I put a bunch of electric toothbrushes from Oral-B, Philips, Suri, Ordo, Silk’n, Foreo and more through their paces to separate the best from the rest. Here are my conclusions.

Best electric toothbrush overall:
Spotlight Sonic Pro
_{£150 at Look Fantastic}

Best value electric toothbrush:
Icy Bear Next-Generation sonic toothbrush
_{£64.99 at Icy Bear Dental}

Best premium electric toothbrush:
Philips Sonicare Smart 9400
_{£160.99 at Amazon}

Best oscillating toothbrush:
Oral-B iO3

Does life feel like it’s speeding up? How to slow down time in 2025
Sun, 29 Dec 2024 10:00:04 GMT

Time flies when you’re… in a boring routine, according to research, which shows that new experiences, from foreign travel to a walk in nature, can alter our perception of time

It’s the time of the year for endless cliches. From “tis the season” and “the gift that keeps on giving” to “new year, new you”, there’s nowhere to hide from tired old phrases. One of my favourites is “Christmas comes around quicker each year” – which ignores the fact that one year equals one trip around the sun.

There’s often a kernel of truth in a cliche, though. A recent study by Ruth Ogden from Liverpool John Moores University and colleagues showed that the vast majority of people in both the UK and Iraq really did experience Christmas (or Ramadan) approaching more rapidly every year. This may be down partly to festive decorations appearing ever earlier in the season. But it’s also a result of how we perceive time psychologically.

Donald Trump loses appeal against E Jean Carroll sexual abuse verdict

Federal appeals court upholds $5m sexual assault and defamation verdict in setback for president-elect

A federal appeals court has upheld the $5m verdict against Donald Trump for sexually abusing and defaming the magazine writer E Jean Carroll, dealing a legal setback to the president-elect.

The three-judge panel at the second US circuit court of appeals in Manhattan rejected Trump’s arguments for a new trial, ruling that evidence including testimony from other accusers – as well as the infamous Access Hollywood tape that captured him boasting about how it was normal for him to “grab [women] by the pussy” – was properly admitted.

Jimmy Carter honored as ‘a statesman and a humanitarian’ as funeral details announced – latest updates
Mon, 30 Dec 2024 17:40:04 GMT

Joe Biden says ‘Jill and I have lost a dear friend’; Carter’s Washington DC funeral to take place on 9 January

• Jimmy Carter, longest-lived US president, dies aged 100

Writing in the New York Times, the administrator of the US agency for international development (USAid) Samantha Power, says of Jimmy Carter’s legacy:

The former president’s regard for human rights was an outgrowth of his Christian faith — a faith so animating that he continued to teach Sunday school while president. Carter’s embrace of international human rights also grew out of his commitment to civil rights at home.

His human rights message had broad appeal in the wake of Watergate and Vietnam, with Americans and many in Congress clamoring for ethics and decency from their leaders.

Upon the death of former US president Jimmy Carter, the Norwegian Nobel Committee would like to repeat its praise for his “decades of untiring effort to find peaceful solutions to international conflicts, to advance democracy and human rights, and to promote economic and social development.”

Earlier this fall, the committee had the pleasure of congratulating him on his 100th anniversary, stating that his work in favour of peace, democracy and human rights will be remembered for another 100 years or more.

Jimmy Carter obituary
Sun, 29 Dec 2024 22:32:59 GMT
US president whose subsequent decades of tireless humanitarian work brought him the Nobel peace prize

The former US president Jimmy Carter, who has died aged 100, achieved a far more favourable reputation after leaving the White House than he ever secured during his single term of office. Following his electoral defeat in 1980 – when Ronald Reagan beat him by 489 to 49 electoral college votes – his sustained efforts to improve life for the deprived people of the world won him the 2002 Nobel peace prize.

Carter left a mixed heritage from his presidential term. He put human rights firmly on the international agenda, persuaded Congress to cede US control of the Panama canal, demonstrated that peace settlements could be achieved in the Middle East, and completed the second strategic arms limitation treaty with the Soviet Union.

Congress party supporters chanted: “As long as the sun and moon remain, your name will remain,” and “Long live Manmohan Singh” as Singh’s body was removed from the headquarters of the left-leaning party, where it had been lying in state.
