Skoch is the latest Russian oligarch to have one of his luxury assets targeted by US authorities, who have launched a campaign to seize valuable assets of those close to the Kremlin in hopes of forcing an end to the war. In June, US authorities announced that a judge had approved a warrant to seize two of Roman Abramovich’s private jets, worth more than $400 million. In May, the US seized a $300 million superyacht called Amadea, owned by Suleiman Kerimov....

At which point, a reminder: the Premier League campaign is scheduled to end on May 28, 2023. Can any of us seriously hope to enjoy another 10 months of this nonsense? Let’s hope not: Ronaldo simply has to take a £350,000-a-week pay cut to sign for Nottingham Forest, who appear to be in vogue this summer. Anyway, is the bronzed Portuguese Adonis Ten Hag’s biggest problem? The Fiver would say that the continued failure to successfully lure Barcelona’s Frenkie de Jong to Old Trafford is potentially more serious, as well as evoking memories of David Moyes’s fruitless attempt to sign Cesc Fàbregas in 2013 at the ill-fated start his reign....

Britain became the first western country to take this step, following pressure from former Labor Secretary and anti-apartheid campaigner Peter Hain. In January, the Guardian revealed that Lord Hayne had called on Boris Johnson’s government to punish Boston, Massachusetts-based Bain & Co for its “despicable” role in its biggest post-apartheid corruption scandal South Africa. The UK’s move puts pressure on the US to follow suit. A Cabinet Office spokesman said: “Following a review of Bain’s role in the alleged capture and corruption by the former South African government, taking into account the evidence and conclusions of the South African Government Commission, the Minister for Government Efficiency found Bain guilty of serious professional misconduct....

His family broke the news on social media, saying Russell died with his wife, Janine, by his side. The statement did not give a cause of death, but Russell was not well enough to present the NBA Finals MVP trophy in June because of a long illness. “Bill’s wife, Jeannine, and his many friends and family thank you for keeping Bill in your prayers. Perhaps you will relive one or two of the golden moments he gave us, or recall his trademark laugh as he delighted in explaining the real story behind how those moments unfolded,” the family’s statement said....

Rose Waldron captured the interaction on video, sharing her thoughts on the situation as she watched from a safe distance. “So much for that trampoline,” he says at one point. As the video begins, one of the bears is in the tall net that surrounds the trampoline. The other is standing outside, on the edge of the trampoline frame. After some unsuccessful attempts to climb over the net, the bear outside finds its way, fighting for a while with the other bear on the bouncing surface before both animals lie down....

Brexit In 2016, the high court ruled that parliament had to give its consent before the government could trigger Article 50 and officially start Brexit, prompting criticism from ministers and the Daily Mail’s infamous “Enemies of the People” headline. The decision was upheld by the high court, which in 2019 would rule that Boris Johnson’s prorogation of parliament during the Brexit crisis was illegal, again angering the government. Court fees In 2017, the high court ruled that employment tribunal fees of up to £1,200 were inconsistent with access to justice, forcing the Ministry of Justice to scrap the fees and giving those who had already paid them the right to a refund....
