Spain PM brushes of reported Pentagon email on punishing NATO members

Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez on Friday refused to be drawn into a dispute with the United States over reports that the Pentagon is weighing whether to punish members of NATO that fail to support American operations in the Iran war. Among those in the firing line is Spain, which has refused to allow US forces involved in the war to use bases on its territory or airspace. Spain says that US-Israeli actions in the Iran war contravenes international law. Keywords for this article Source link

The best hot brushes in the UK for a salon finish at home, tried and tested by our expert | Hair care

Few things put a spring in your step quite like a beautiful, bouncy blow-dry from your favourite hair salon. However, if you don’t want to spend your days – or your money – at the salon, then a hot brush could be just the styling tool you need. The Guardian’s journalism is independent.

As the name suggests, a hot brush is a round or paddle-shaped hair-styling tool that either heats up like a straightening iron or uses warm airflow like a hair dryer to dry and style your hair. Depending on the shape and size of the brush, a hot brush can give you anything from a straight, sleek style to volume and lift, or even red-carpet curls. A good hot brush is a thing of joy because it can provide close to salon-style results with minimum fuss. Brushes that style with warm air can be used for wet-to-dry styling straight from the shower, saving you time, while blow-dry brushes usually …

Denmark’s kingmaker is a man who brushes his teeth with soap – POLITICO

Denmark’s kingmaker is a man who brushes his teeth with soap – POLITICO

But just a day before Tuesday’s elections in Denmark, a right-leaning and a left-leaning bloc are nearly tied with each other in the polls, both just short of a majority in the country’s 179-seat parliament. Rasmussen’s Moderates, meanwhile, are projected to secure 12 seats. That sets him up to either backstop Frederiksen to form another broadly centrist government, or hand power to Deputy PM Troels Lund Poulsen, leader of the center-right Venstre party and the preferred PM candidate of the right-wing bloc. Frederiksen is using that reality to nudge voters towards supporting her. “If [Rasmussen] chooses to back another prime minister, then we will, with a very high possibility, get a right-wing government in Denmark,” she said recently. Mette doesn’t define me For the past four years, Frederiksen’s Social Democrats have governed in coalition with Venstre and Rasmussen’s Moderates — the latter named after a fictional political group in the hit Danish political drama, “Borgen.” The government’s right-leaning policies on migration, which are among the most hardline in Europe, and the lack of action on …

The best hot brushes for every hair type, tried and tested

The best hot brushes for every hair type, tried and tested

Over two months, I put nine different hot brushes through daily testing to see how each performed beyond the promise of glossy marketing claims. My hair type is wavy, of medium thickness and mid-length, so it can be a challenge to style. The models varied in both price and purpose: some were designed specifically for use on dry hair, others performed best on damp strands, and a few included multiple attachment heads for added versatility. Each brush was scored across several metrics, beginning with design. This included how well it felt in hand, the quality of build and how intuitively the buttons and settings could be used. Usability and convenience were judged by timing how long it took to heat up, how easily it glided through sections of hair, and how quickly it created a salon-worthy finish. Safety on the hair was tested through repeated styling sessions, noting any signs of dryness or damage. I also assessed how straightforward they were to use straight from the box, without relying on manuals, and how much technique …

Spain PM Sánchez brushes off Trump’s threat to cut off all trade

The President of the Government, Pedro Sanchez, speaks during the official opening dinner of the Mobile World Congress (MWC) Barcelona 2026, at the Museu Nacional d’Art de Catalunya, on 1 March 2026, in Barcelona, Catalonia, Spain. Europa Press News | Europa Press | Getty Images Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez on Wednesday doubled down on his criticism of the U.S strikes against Iran, describing the escalating Middle East conflict as a “disaster.” His comments come after U.S. President Donald Trump pledged to cut off trade with Madrid after Spain’s government prevented two jointly operated bases in its territory from being used in the strikes. “Spain has been terrible,” Trump said on Tuesday, during a White House news conference alongside German Chancellor Friedrich Merz. “We’re going to cut off all trade with Spain. We don’t want anything to do with Spain,” he added. In a televised address on Wednesday morning, Sánchez said: “Very often great wars start with a chain of events spiralling out of control due to miscalculations, technical failures, and unforeseen circumstances. Therefore, we …
