Words spoken from the furthest humanity has gone in half a century. In their first live broadcast, Commander Reid Wiseman and his fellow astronauts on the Artemis II mission described their view of Earth as "spectacular". From outer space, they watched the polarising politics of their home planet fade into the distance. But reflecting on the past week, it could equally be said of the White House under Donald J Trump: there is nothing normal about this. Monday brought debate about potential war crimes, with the president having threatened to bomb Iran's power and water desalination plants. His press secretary, Karoline Leavitt, said the US always operated within the law, "but" would continue to pursue its objectives "unabated". Iran war - latest updates By Tuesday, he was threatening to pull the US out of NATO, again, and singling out the UK, in particular. "Go get your own oil!" he blasted on Truth Social. An insult juxtaposed with confirmation that the King and Queen's state visit to the United States will go ahead as scheduled this month. The insults continued on Wednesday, with Donald Trump mocking Sir Keir Starmer and French President Emmanuel Macron during an Easter reception. He depicted them as weak, while his spiritual adviser, Paula White, depicted Trump as Christ-like. "You were betrayed and arrested and falsely accused. It's a familiar pattern that our Lord and Saviour showed us," she said. "They call me king now. Can you believe it?" Trump interjected, while reading about Palm Sunday. A few hours later, he was delivering the vaguest presidential address to the nation in living memory. Heavily billed as "an important update on the war", it brought more confusion than clarity. A quiet Maundy Thursday? Not a chance. That turned out to be US attorney general Pam Bondi's last supper. The president fired another high-profile woman from his cabinet, this one over her handling of the Epstein files, and for not pursuing his opponents more aggressively. On Friday, the US lost an F-15 fighter jet to Iranian fire, one of the two crew quickly plucked to safety. During efforts to find the second, a second US plane and two US Blackhawk helicopters were also hit. A daring search and rescue mission in enemy territory, in the shadow of a daring lunar mission that has captivated humanity. Christina Koch, the first woman in history to travel around the moon as part of the Artemis II mission, described seeing all of Earth through "one single pane". An "absolutely phenomenal" view, she said. From tens of thousands of miles away, the planet is a fragile luminous sphere without borders, where human quarrels seem small. But in the context of an unconventional White House, the potential for a much larger war in the Middle East looms large. The one drawback of flying to the moon is that you might not want to come back again.

The ​decision to throw out most of the claims in the case was made by District Judge Lewis Liman in Manhattan on Thursday on jurisdictional grounds. Lively accused Baldoni of sexual harassment in connection with the filming of their 2024 romantic drama It Ends With Us. The 38-year-old actress - who is married to Ryan Reynolds - sued Baldoni, his production company Wayfarer Studios and others, seeking damages for alleged harassment, defamation, invasion of privacy and violations ‌of federal and state civil rights laws. She claimed the defendants created a sexually charged atmosphere during the film's production and then schemed to silence her from speaking out. The film starred Lively and Baldoni, who was also the director. Baldoni - who denies any wrongdoing - argued he addressed his co-star's concerns as soon as she raised them and defended his decision to hire a crisis management firm after Lively began disparaging him publicly. In his ruling, Judge Liman said Lively had sued under a ​California law but the alleged wrongful conduct took place elsewhere. He said Lively could pursue a retaliation claim against Wayfarer Studios, in addition to a contract claim and an aiding and ​abetting claim against various defendants. The rift became public in December 2024 when Lively filed a complaint with the California civil rights department, followed by her lawsuit.

Baldoni ⁠sued Lively and Reynolds for defamation, accusing the couple of destroying his reputation, but Judge Liman dismissed the case in June. He also dismissed Baldoni's case against The New York Times. It Ends With Us is about a flower shop owner, played by Lively, who marries a neurosurgeon ​played by Baldoni, but the marriage falls apart when he becomes abusive, reminding the florist of her own parents' relationship.

The prime minister released his statement as is traditional from Downing Street. He said that in 'times when some seek to divide, the government is committed to working across faiths and differences, to build a country that is more resilient, inclusive and connected'. This follows a row earlier last month over whether Muslims praying in Trafalgar Square as part of Eid constituted a "domination" of public space, as argued by the shadow justice secretary Nick Timothy and agreed by Reform. A Passion of Jesus performance, showing the story of the crucifixion, was put on in the square on Good Friday. Sir Keir also addressed the impact on cost of living from the war in the Middle East. In his Easter message, Sir Keir said: "Easter is a celebration of hope, new life and renewal. "Across the country, churches and Christian communities quietly and tirelessly support families, children and neighbours - offering comfort, bringing people together, and standing alongside those who need it most. "It is precisely that spirit of service which exemplifies national renewal, and reflects the very heart of Christ's example. "This Easter comes at a time of real anxiety for many people. Conflicts abroad, pressures at home, and uncertainty about the future weigh heavily on families and households. "In moments like these, faith offers reassurance and grounding - a reminder that we are not alone, and that hope can still take root even in difficult soil."

"I thank everyone who gives their time through churches and Christian charities, and wish Christians across the UK and around the world a very happy Easter filled with peace, hope and the promise of new life." Leader of the opposition Kemi Badenoch also shared a message, describing Easter as "a reminder that even in the darkest times, renewal is possible and that light can overcome darkness". "At the heart of the Christian faith is a story of redemption, of second chances, of perseverance and of the belief that better days lie ahead," she said. 👉 Click here to listen to Electoral Dysfunction on your podcast app 👈 "In a world that can often feel uncertain, perhaps even bleak, with conflicts in the Middle East and Ukraine, and challenges at home, that message matters more than ever. "Across the country, we also see the cultural value of Christianity in the quiet, everyday impact of that faith in acts of kindness, service and sacrifice in our communities. I wish Christians and all people across the United Kingdom a very happy Easter."

Manchester City vs Liverpool, Saturday 12.30pm Liverpool fans and the hierarchy need to see some big performances and results in the next week otherwise Arne Slot is going to face serious pressure. This is a big one for Liverpool but the market only rates them as a 3/1 chance with Sky Bet to win in 90 minutes. It's a fair assessment of their chances in a tie Manchester City should progress from. A betting strategy I like to use after an international break is to back low-scoring first halves. It can be a graveyard for goals. Liverpool's daunting end-of-season run is set to shape Reds' campaign The long-term data support a drop in first-half goal averages in games after the international break. Across the last 10 seasons in the Premier League it drops from 1.3 goals per first half across all games to around 1.1 per first half after an international break. There is logic behind these numbers, too, which is important when assessing a pattern of data as players have been travelling around the world so could be a little fatigued in the first game back. Breaks also disrupt rhythm from a player and managerial tactical point of view. For example, after the first international break in September, 25 of the last 50 Premier League games have been 0-0 at half-time. A huge strike rate. Salah to leave Liverpool | The key questions answeredLiverpool news & transfers🔴| Transfer Centre LIVE! Slot's Liverpool away from home can be a very stale and safe team in first halves, too. Liverpool have scored just three first-half goals in their last 15 away days. The way I'm going to play this low-scoring first-half angle is through the Bet Builder, and that's to combine under 0.5 Liverpool first half goals - so Liverpool not to score in first the half - with under 1.5 total first half goals. Which gets us to 10/11 with Sky Bet. A cracking bet. And I'll also have to cover the 0-0 at half-time which is too big at 3/1. SCORE PREDICTION: 2-0Chelsea vs Port Vale, Saturday 5.30pm Port Vale are 28/1 to win this match in 90 minutes. It would be one of the biggest upsets in FA Cup history if League One's bottom side could somehow dispatch Chelsea. It's a terrible betting heat from an outright perspective but the cards market does appeal. Chelsea have a big discipline problem. Only Tottenham and Brighton have been shown more yellow cards in the Premier League this season than Chelsea (71) and no club have had more players sent off than the Blues (7). Such is the gigantic mismatch between the teams, Chelsea's card expectancy is low in this game, with 7/4 with Sky Bet on offer from them to pick up over 1.5 cards. It's rare we get to back Chelsea at these kinds of prices in this market. SCORE PREDICTION: 3-0Southampton vs Arsenal, Saturday 8pm Southampton could be sitting ducks to the Arsenal set-piece machine. They've hit some form in the Championship but their record defending set pieces is abysmal. Across the last 21 games, no team is conceding more shots per game from set pieces than Saints - a whopping 5.5. They also lead the charts for most goals conceded via this route with 11 goals shipped in those last 21 games. Cristhian Mosquera has started the last two FA Cup ties, and with a Champions League trip to Sporting to come in midweek, it's likely he'll get the nod again with Mikel Arteta freshening up his team. He had a shot in both those victories over Mansfield and Wigan. Such is the weakness of Saints on that side of the game, Mosquera is worth backing to have two or more shots at 2/1 with Sky Bet. SCORE PREDICTION: 1-3West Ham vs Leeds, Sunday 4.30pm There's a really interesting dynamic to this game, as a chance to make an FA Cup semi-final doesn't come around often for these clubs, but neither manager will be too disheartened if they get knocked out based on their situation in the Premier League. I'm going to back West Ham here, though, on the draw no bet at 10/11 with Sky Bet as this Leeds team away from home aren't a team to trust. They've won just twice in 90 minutes in 18 away games this season - against Derby and Wolves - and were even knocked out by Sheffield Wednesday in the Carabao Cup on penalties. Daniel Farke's men are competitive in games and very well organised, but they just lack killer instinct and quality in the final third to open up a tight game. And although West Ham remain in the bottom three, under Nuno Espirito Santo they have been operating as an upwardly mobile Premier League team for a few months now. They can book a spot at Wembley. SCORE PREDICTION: 2-1

Four ambulances from Hatzola, a volunteer-led ambulance service, were destroyed in the early hours of 23 March in north London. Hamza Iqbal, 20, and Rehan Khan, 19, both British nationals from Leyton, have been charged with arson being reckless as to whether life would be endangered. A 17-year-old boy, a dual British and Pakistani national from Walthamstow, who cannot be named for legal reasons, has also been charged with the same offence. The group, who were all arrested on Wednesday at different locations in east London, are due to appear at Westminster Magistrates' Court later today. While an investigation was launched by Counter Terrorism Policing (CTP), the incident has not been declared as terrorism. When the four ambulances were set on fire, the resulting blaze caused gas canisters stored in the vehicles to explode, and nearby homes were evacuated as a precaution. Local residents describe being woken by the noise, with the force of the explosions blowing out windows, including those of the nearby synagogue. The government loaned the charity four ambulances to replace those that were destroyed, and has said it would cover the cost of new vehicles. An appeal has raised more than £3.2m to find new, safer premises for the Hatzola ambulance service in Golders Green.

Detective Chief Superintendent Luke Williams, who leads policing in northwest London, said a "bespoke policing plan" has been deployed at vulnerable areas across London, including Golders Green. "This has involved a significant number of additional officers on the ground. It is also being supported by highly visible armed police patrols to serve as a deterrent to anyone seeking to cause our communities harm."

The former Little Mix star has campaigned for all newborn babies to be screened for the rare condition after her twins, Ocean Jade and Story Monroe Nelson, were diagnosed. They were found to have the condition, which causes progressive muscle wastage, which Nelson says means they will probably never walk, after being born prematurely last year. The 34-year-old launched a petition for more health checks for babies, appearing on Sky News to promote her campaign, and it reached 100,000 signatures. Health Secretary Wes Streeting has now announced the checks will be rolled out as part of in-screening evaluations from this October, rather than January 2027. These are used to test proposed screening programmes before they are adopted nationally. In a letter to Nelson and Giles Lomax, the boss of the SMA UK charity, Mr Streeting said he was keen on a full rollout and promised to keep them updated. Nelson, a patron of the charity, celebrated the news in a post on Instagram. "I am so proud, as this is a major milestone for the SMA community," she said.

Mr Lomax said his charity would continue to work towards a UK-wide rollout of SMA screening, adding: "No baby should be left behind based on where they live."

The Times reported that Mr Miliband, the key proponent of Labour's net zero plans, is set to give the project the green light. Jackdaw was previously approved under the Conservatives, before being put on ice when a court appeal forced a new environmental assessment. Middle East live: US jet shot down, Iranian media claims Labour was elected on a manifesto that promised not to approve new oil and gas licences. However, the government considers this not to apply to Jackdaw due to the prior consent, leaving the door open for Jackdaw to be approved. Mr Miliband's efforts to sprint towards green energy have faced new challenges following the outbreak of war in the Middle East, and rising energy prices. Chancellor Rachel Reeves said earlier this week she was "very happy" to back Jackdaw, and the linked Rosebank project. Both are located in the North Sea, with Jackdaw - off Aberdeen - mainly containing gas, and Rosebank - near the Shetland Islands - having both gas and oil. In Labour's 2024 manifesto, Sir Keir Starmer promise his government would "not issue new licences to explore new fields". A government source pointed Sky News to the fact nothing was said about previously granted consents in the policy platform. Another said it was noted that Mr Miliband's decision will be made in a quasi-judicial fashion, based on the law, rather than government or Labour Party policy. In opposition, Mr Miliband branded Rosebank a "colossal waste of taxpayer money and climate vandalism". Read more:Countries are dealing with rising energy pricesStarmer unveils limited energy support And a war of words erupted on social media between Labour backbenchers - including a recently departed minister calling for more drilling. Josh Simons said Ms Reeves' backing of more drilling was "excellent news". However, Labour colleague Uma Kumaran replied "disagree", stating "the climate crisis is very real, as is the energy crisis. We can't keep going back to oil and gas." She said the war showed the UK was too reliant on fossil fuels, with Green Party leader Zack Polanski also criticised Mr Simons. The ex-minister said he was not convinced that new drilling wouldn't lower bills, bring energy independence or protect the UK from price shocks. Instead, his argument was that it would create jobs, provide tax revenue and reduce global carbon emissions by reducing the amount of imported fuel. "Yes, double down on renewables, insulate homes, lower bills. AND green light those two fields," Mr Simons said. Approval of the field would see Labour adopting a position shared by the Conservatives and Reform UK, who want more drilling. The SNP has recently changed its position to back drilling too, having previously called for a ban on new projects. One of the leading private sector figures involved in the Jackdaw project said it could start pumping fuel in time for next winter. Neil McCulloch, the chief executive of Adura, added that his company is ready to start providing energy from Jackdaw by this October, if they get a decision by the expected deadline around August. "We do not recognise this unfounded speculation," a Department for Energy Security and Net Zero spokesperson said. "We cannot comment on live planning decisions, and these decisions will be made in an appropriate and timely manner, after the last government's plans were found to be unlawful." 👉 Click here to listen to Electoral Dysfunction on your podcast app 👈 The rise in energy prices has led to many to call for more government action. Lord Richard Walker, the executive chairman of Iceland and Sir Keir Starmer's cost of living tsar, suggested the 5p cut on fuel duty should be extended past September, or even expanded.

Harper jostled Dubois with her elbow as they posed for photos after their final press conference. Dubois angrily pushed her back as security had to hastily step between them to prevent the situation from escalating. Dubois and Harper clash again: 'She's weaker than I imagined'Buy tickets for Caroline Dubois vs Terri Harper billNot got Sky? Get Sky Sports or stream with no contract on NOW It was the latest outburst of hostility between the two champions, who put their WBO and WBC lightweight titles on line this Sunday at Kensington's Olympia, live on Sky Sports. Harper's elbow shove was a response to Dubois flexing in front of her after their face-offs, with tensions growing more strained as the fight gets closer. Dubois scoffed at Harper for acting out of character. "She's trying to replicate me," Dubois told Sky Sports. "She's trying to pretend. She's seeing my energy and going 'I need to fight against this. I need to go against it'. She's trying to be me. "I don't want to read into that. That's not important. What's important is the fight night. Coming up here today I feel very confident, very confident." She's convinced Harper is in fact afraid of her. "100 percent," Dubois said. During their staredown Dubois kept up the personal dialogue. "I was saying: 'I'm coming. I'm coming.' That's it. That's the energy," she revealed. "I'm that nightmare. I'm that bogeywoman. I'm something that is on her mind and I'm coming." 'Terri had to show a bit of backbone' Trainer Shane McGuigan believes the pushing, nudging and needling will all fuel Dubois when it comes to the fight. "She loves it. She absolutely loves it," McGuigan told Sky Sports. "I don't think she needs any fire in this fight. "It's just going to elicit a little more hunger if there is any." He added: "Terri... I think she had to show a little bit of backbone because she knew that she was under attack. It's good that she's up for a fight." Dubois will look to be dangerous. "We want to win by knockout," McGuigan said, though he acknowledged that could be hard. "I do think she [Harper] was a bit weight-drained when she boxed Alycia [Baumgardner]. I think this weight will suit her more. Sandy Ryan obviously stopped her, that was an accumulation of punches. I think she will hold a better shot, it's probably her more natural weight at lightweight," the trainer said. "She was too small for 147lbs and I think she boxed as high as 154lbs. I believe that she'll be the best prepared she's been and she can be awkward, so we've got to break it down slowly. "Caroline... I think when she lands clean she'll definitely have an impact. Whether she'll knock her out or not, we might have to start putting some combinations and phases together. "She wants to clean up the division and make big fights." Watch Caroline Dubois vs Terri Harper this Sunday live on Sky Sports from 7pm.
