Emily Wurramara expressed solidarity with the people of Palestine and “all Indigenous peoples around the world” experiencing oppression as she accepted the artist of the year award at the 21st National Indigenous Music awards at the Nimas in Garramilla/Darwin on Saturday night.

“There’s nothing like coming back home and being here and playing for mob and playing for the people,” the Garramilla-born Warnindhilyagwa singer said. “Because the music is about the people. The music is freedom. Free Palestine, free Congo and free all Indigenous peoples around the world from their oppressors. It always was, always will be Indigenous land.”

• France 6-40 England

• Visitors score six tries in final World Cup warm-up match

England stormed to a 16th consecutive win over France in their final warm-up match before the World Cup kicks off in two weeks. After a close-run Six Nations finale in April England’s 40-6 win in Mont-de-Marsan was a reminder of the physical gulf between the cross-Channel rivals, with the visitors’ pack instrumental in all six of their tries.

It was fitting that the game, a friendly only in name, was scheduled amid the street festival season in south-west France – matches against Les Bleues are rarely dull affairs, even if the Red Roses have dominated Le Crunch for the last seven years.

• Raducanu eases into third round with 6-3, 6-2

• Briton will face either Sabalenka or Vondrousova next

The Francisco Roig era of Emma Raducanu’s career began with a positive performance as the 30th seed defeated Olga Danilovic of Serbia 6-3, 6-2 on a sweltering day in the second round at the Cincinnati Open.

Raducanu’s recent progress has been driven by her reliability against inferior opponents and she is now 19-4 against lower-ranked players over the past year. Having spent much of the past four years struggling to string together wins, she is now as match-tough as she has ever been.

Deported offenders will be barred from re-entering UK and measures will apply to those in custody too to cut costs

Most foreign criminals convicted by a UK court will be deported immediately, instead of 30% of the way through their prison sentences, under plans announced by the government.

The justice secretary, Shabana Mahmood, has proposed a change in legislation that will give the government the power to deport most foreign prisoners as soon as they are convicted and incarcerated.

President told people at a fundraiser last month he was considering changing marijuana’s Schedule I classification

Donald Trump is considering reclassifying marijuana as a less dangerous drug, the Wall Street Journal reported on Friday, citing people familiar with the matter.

At a $1m-a-plate fundraiser at his New Jersey golf club earlier this month, Trump told attendees he was interested in making such a change, the people, who declined to be named, told the newspaper.

Campaigners had urged Lula to veto the bill entirely, but many have welcomed his alterations

Brazil’s president, Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva, has signed into law a controversial bill that scientists and environmentalists had dubbed the “devastation bill”, but vetoed key articles that would have in effect dismantled the country’s environmental licensing system.

On Friday, the final day to either sanction or veto the law, Lula struck down or amended 63 of the 398 provisions in a bill that, as approved by congress last month, had been regarded as the most significant setback to Brazil’s environmental protections in four decades.

Twenty-five years after his award-winning book was published, the Australian author revisits True History of the Kelly Gang

How very weird to return to this old manuscript, the scene of so much doubt and anguish, not to say obsession.

I was a baby when the seed was planted, three years out of school, two years since my devastating failure in the first year of a science degree. I had drifted into advertising where the gods determined I would fall among novelists and playwrights who would lead me to a place I could never have imagined.

At the Australian Alpaca National Show, local camelids compete in the hope of being crowned Supreme Champion. But it’s not some ‘fancy kennel club’ – this is a serious industry

It’s a scant 12C in Bendigo, but scores of fans whirr through the showground’s pavilion. The stars of this weekend’s proceedings hope to shine, but it’s important they don’t sweat too much before their time in the limelight.

“They need to keep their hair nice and well done,” says Lee Sadler, vice-president of the Australian Alpaca Association. “We’re all hoping for a good hair day.”

Despite wanting to keep things casual, Emma Mugglestone couldn’t ignore her increasing feelings for ‘Gorgeous’

• Find more stories from The moment I knew series

In 2007 I was preparing to move from Brisbane to the UK. I was 21, I’d just finished university and my family had been through a rough period. It was time for a new adventure, even if I was mildly anxious about leaving behind all my loved ones. When my best friend, Tegan, suggested a night out, it sounded exactly what I needed, but first she wanted to show me around her new lodgings on Enoggera army base.

Tegan had told me stories about the other soldiers she was living with, but there was one guy who kept coming up – an artillery officer named “Gorgeous”. Obviously, he had another name, but when Tegan introduced us, his nickname made a whole lot of sense. He was still in his cams (hello!) and despite never being interested in men in uniform before, my curiosity was piqued.

Integrating almost half a team usually takes time, which may cost Arne Slot’s side important points in the title race

Florian Wirtz! Hugo Ekitiké! Milos Kerkez! Jérémie Frimpong! And soon, possibly, Alexander Isak! It’s vital, Bob Paisley always said, to build from a position of strength, and Liverpool this summer have certainly done that.

If Isak does join, Liverpool’s transfer spending this summer will be approaching £400m, which would be the second-highest figure paid by any club in a single transfer window (behind only Chelsea in summer 2023) – the lack of signings last summer coupled with some canny sales has given them significant profitability and sustainability rules headroom.

Footballer Suleiman al-Obeid was killed in an Israeli attack in southern Gaza last week, according to Palestine Football Association

Mohamed Salah has criticised Uefa for failing to state how a footballer known as the “Palestinian Pelé” died in a tribute it posted.

Suleiman al-Obeid, 41, was killed on Wednesday in southern Gaza when Israeli forces attacked civilians waiting for humanitarian aid, the Palestine Football Association (PFA) said.

It is almost exactly 30 years since goals from Craig Hignett and Jan Åge Fjørtoft secured Middlesbrough a Premier League victory against Chelsea as they played their first game at a brand new Riverside Stadium. Even the presence of Ruud Gullit at sweeper in a visiting side featuring Mark Hughes in attack could not deny Boro a 2-0 win as an exciting decade peopled by, among other luminaries, Juninho, Fabrizio Ravanelli, Nick Barmby, Gareth Southgate, Gaizka Mendieta and Bolo Zenden dawned.

Along the way Boro would reach three League Cup finals, winning one, while also losing FA Cup and, most excitingly, Uefa Cup finals. Not to mention bouncing back from a one-season second-tier sabbatical.

• Arne Slot’s side finished 10 points clear last season

• ‘You want to compete for every trophy you are in’

Virgil van Dijk has reinforced Arne Slot’s desire for more silverware for the new season by insisting that retaining the Premier League title is “the bare minimum” for Liverpool.

The champions will get a final tune-up for their defence when Sunday’s Community Shield pits them against Crystal Palace and the club’s captain was in a bullish mood in an interview on the club’s website.

Slot has been busy strengthening a squad that won the league by 10 points and Van Dijk says that after a spree of almost £300m on new players, there will be no lack of intensity when the season begins against Bournemouth on Friday.

Snapchat logged about 20,000 cases last year of adults grooming children online, more than other social media platforms combined

Tech companies including Snapchat and Facebook reported more than 9,600 cases of adults grooming children online in the UK in just six months last year – the equivalent of about 400 a week.

Law enforcement agencies, including the FBI and the UK’s National Crime Agency (NCA), have grown increasingly alarmed about the growing threat from sextortion and other crimes targeting teenagers.

Locarno film festival
Blue Is the Warmest Colour director Abdellatif Kechiche’s latest erotic melodrama delivers another heady dose of flirting, farce and bafflement

So here it is – the third but, incredibly, perhaps not the final episode in the most bizarre arthouse franchise in film history, and which, for its sheer melodramatic ker-aziness it commands attention. So, as it were, previously on Mektoub My Love …

The first film in the series from Tunisian-French director Abdellatif Kechiche, who had won the Cannes Palme d’Or for Blue Is the Warmest Colour (for which he was famously required to share the award with his two acting leads Adèle Exarchopoulos and Léa Seydoux), arrived in 2017. This first MML (called Mektoub My Love: Canto Uno) turned out to be an epic erotic summer romance set in the early 90s about a guy called Amin (Shaïn Boumedine) who comes back from Paris to his hometown of Sète, having abandoned his medical studies to follow his dream of being a screenwriter, and finds himself immersed in his friends’ intrigues; Ophélie (Ophélie Bau) is engaged to a guy away doing military service, but having an affair with Amin’s cousin Tony (Salim Kechiouche).

Thai military accuses neighbouring country of planting concealed weapons in violation of international law

Three Thai soldiers were injured on Saturday after one tripped a landmine in territory along its frontier with Cambodia, Thailand’s army has said as it accused the neighbouring country of planting concealed weapons in violation of international law.

The incident, in which a Thai sergeant major suffered severe injuries, came two days after the countries reasserted their commitment to a ceasefire that ended a brief but intense period of fighting. Cambodia denies the accusation.

Ruben Amorim’s side still a work in progress after Fiorentina friendly but hopes are high for moment when Benjamin Sesko joins attacking newcomers on the pitch

David de Gea’s appearance between the sticks at Old Trafford was a moment of nostalgia for Manchester United fans, a reminder of better times. The goalkeeper’s departure at the end of the 2022-2023 season epitomises the club’s self-inflicted problems, the sort of business ineptitude that has scarred United and Sir Jim Ratcliffe will demand is a thing of the past.

When André Onana, a goalkeeper well-known to the then manager Erik ten Hag, was available for nothing, United allowed De Gea to run down his contract and then spent £40m on the Cameroonian a year later. The logic was lost on everyone, missing out on a fee for the Spaniard, despite a subpar final season, and then splashing out on an inferior replacement.

Republican push for gerrymandered congressional maps triggers down-and-dirty from new generation – will it work?

It was a stirring speech that brought Democrats to tears. “When someone is cruel or acts like a bully, you don’t stoop to their level,” Michelle Obama told them in Philadelphia in 2016. “No, our motto is: ‘When they go low, we go high.’”

Fast forward to Ken Martin, chair of the Democratic National Committee, speaking in Chicago this week. “This is not the Democratic party of your grandfather, which would bring a pencil to the knife fight,” he insisted. “This is a new Democratic party. We’re bringing a knife to a knife fight, and we are going to fight fire with fire.”

Les Bleues wing is in combative mood before the pre-tournament clash with Red Roses. ‘We’re not talking a warm-up match’

Kelly Arbey has made a habit of scoring against England. Having made her mark with a hat-trick of tries for France Under-20s against the Red Roses a year ago, the jet-heeled young wing added to her record with a spectacular solo try for the senior team at Twickenham in April, holding off two defenders from a standing start before speeding down the line.

The Red Roses responded within minutes but the effort was a catalyst for a late resurgence from Les Bleues in the Six Nations decider. “We were under pressure at that point of the game, so it helped us get back into the match and gave the team a boost,” says Arbey. “I’m very proud of it.”

On this evidence the Welsh club – back at this level for the first time since 1982 after an extraordinary rise from non-league – are sure to be a fun addition but how they were given a galling reminder of the step up in trip, Saints scoring twice in the final nine minutes to earn a comeback victory and a first under Will Still.

David Rose, 33, was shot to death in a confrontation with gunman, who was later found dead in nearby building

The police officer who was shot to death in a confrontation with a gunman near the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) in Atlanta has been identified as 33-year-old David Rose – a husband and father of two daughters who had a son on the way.

Rose, who joined the DeKalb county police force in September of last year and previously served in the US marines, was responding to reports of gunfire near the CDC campus when he was stuck. He was later rushed to the Emory University hospital, where he died of his injuries.

Ukrainian and European partners to join UK foreign secretary and US vice-president at Chevening for talks

The UK foreign secretary, David Lammy, and the US vice-president, JD Vance, held a meeting with Ukrainian and European partners in Britain on Saturday to discuss the drive for peace in Ukraine.

The summit comes before a meeting between Donald Trump and Vladimir Putin set for next Friday in Alaska. In a comment that that was met with pushback from Kyiv, the US president said that an end to the war must involve “some swapping of territories”. The Ukrainian president, Volodymyr Zelenskyy, stressed early on Saturday that “Ukrainians will not give their land to occupiers”.

Warning: includes images of blood and graphic scenes

Ehab Nuor, a 23-year-old barber, lies flat on the sand behind entangled metal, hiding from heavy machine-gun fire, as hundreds of Palestinians scramble away, carrying backpacks in which they had hoped to collect food.

Appointed by Carter to head FBI in 1978, Webster helped improve the image of an agency tarnished by scandal

William H Webster, the former FBI and CIA director whose troubleshooting skills and integrity helped restore public confidence in those federal agencies, has died, his family announced on Friday. He was 101.

Webster led the FBI from 1978 to 1987 and the CIA from 1987 to 1991, the only person to guide the nation’s top law-enforcement agency and its primary intelligence-gathering organization.
