  • “Marine controversy could leave SNP-Green alliance up the creek” – Humza Yousaf’s determination to press ahead with conservation measures designed to protect Scotland’s marine environment has become the latest flashpoint for his embattled ministry, exposing divisions within the SNP and exacerbating concerns that the Green Party is exercising disproportionate influence upon the Scottish government, reports the Times.

  • “Texas AG launches probe into medical centre over potential ‘illegal’ trans procedures on minors” – Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton announced an investigation into Austin-based Dell Children’s Medical Centre after an undercover video released last month allegedly showed staff at the facility saying that they had patients transitioning as young as eight years old, reports the Daily Wire.
  • “Ron DeSantis gets set for 2024 with culture war blitz” – Ron DeSantis told supporters to “buckle up” as he prepares to announce a run for U.S. President after Florida Republicans passed a series of “culture war” bills, reports the Times.
  • “My part in Vice’s downfall” – Brash Millennial upstarts were once the future of news, writes Aris Roussinos in an insider account of life at Vice News and why it didn’t work out in UnHerd.
