Erling Haaland is facing criticism in his home country after agreeing to front a major Budweiser advertising campaign ahead of this summer’s World Cup, with Norwegian health campaigners describing his decision to promote alcohol as “tragic” given his status as a role model for young people across the country. The Manchester City and Norway striker has partnered with the American beer brand for its “Let It Pour” promotional campaign, which also features former Liverpool manager Jürgen Klopp. The campaign is being launched across 40 countries — but not in Norway, where all forms of alcohol advertising have been strictly banned…

Nearly two thirds of British teenagers will be living with a mental health condition or behavioural disorder by the end of the decade if current trends continue, according to a stark new report that warns the crisis is already reshaping the country’s workforce and economic prospects — and could cost a generation trillions of pounds in lost lifetime earnings, property wealth and pensions. Research by Zurich Insurance found that having a mental health problem has effectively become the norm among young people aged 15 to 19, with 51 per cent of that age group already estimated to have a mental…

An Indian man dug up his dead sister’s remains and carried her skeleton through the streets to his local bank branch in a desperate attempt to prove she had died — after staff repeatedly told him to bring the account holder in person before they could release her money. Jeetu Munda, 50, exhumed the skeletal remains of his elder sister Kalra Munda, who died in January aged 56, after months of failed attempts to withdraw approximately 20,000 rupees — around £165 — from her account at a branch of the Odisha Grameen Bank in the Keonjhar district of Odisha, roughly…

Former CNN anchor Don Lemon has erupted in anger at suggestions that Democratic political rhetoric should be held equally responsible for the attempted assassination of Donald Trump at the White House Correspondents’ Dinner, saying the comparison “drives me f–king crazy” and denouncing it as a “false equivalent.” Speaking on The Don Lemon Show on Monday, Lemon addressed the growing debate among politicians and journalists about whether left-wing rhetoric had contributed to the atmosphere that led Cole Thomas Allen, 31, to open fire at the Washington Hilton on Saturday in what prosecutors are treating as an attempt to assassinate the president…

Lord Hermer told human rights lawyers who pursued a decade-long false war crimes case against British soldiers that they had made a greater contribution to society than the decorated troops they had wrongly accused, emails obtained by The Telegraph reveal. The Attorney General sent the message to a junior solicitor at Leigh Day following the emergence of evidence at a public inquiry that fatally undermined claims that British troops had tortured and executed civilians after the 2004 Battle of Danny Boy in southern Iraq. In the correspondence, Lord Hermer wrote that the falsely accused soldiers could never claim to have…

The man arrested after gunshots were heard near the White House correspondents’ dinner and President Trump was evacuated has been pictured wearing an Israel Defence Forces sweatshirt, as a separate claim about a spike in Israeli Google searches for his name before the incident circulates widely online and fuels speculation about his motives. Cole Thomas Allen, 31, from Torrance, California, was arrested after allegedly attempting to breach a security checkpoint on the night of 25-26 April during the black-tie event. Trump was escorted out by Secret Service agents after five shots were heard outside the venue. No one was injured.…

Russell Brand sat across from Piers Morgan in New York and admitted he thinks about going to prison every single day — before being left flicking through his Bible for two minutes in search of verses he could not locate, in one of the most uncomfortable television moments of his recent public appearances. The exchange, broadcast on Piers Morgan Uncensored on YouTube, covered everything from Brand’s rape charges and his past relationship with a teenage girl to his Christian conversion, his views on Covid vaccines and accusations that he is a fraud.
