Well played France

Ireland on the ropes

Watch Chinese new year become more of a high profile celebration in European capitals in the wake of Trumpism.

The financial grubbiness and sex lives of the rich and famous are rather off putting.

Reckon the Prince of darkness is now truly finished.

The media saturation of the Honnold climb is too much. Don’t get me wrong I like him but the whole circus is just crazy.
