Attempts by the former French president and his supporters to discredit the legal process by which he was sentenced have been irresponsible and unjustified

As he was transported to La Santé prison in Paris on Tuesday, Nicolas Sarkozy posted a message brimming with defiance on X, writing “It’s not a former president of the republic who is being jailed this morning, it’s an innocent man”. A court of appeal will eventually give its view on the veracity of the second clause of that statement. But unfortunately for Mr Sarkozy, the drama and significance of his fall cannot simply be wished away.

President of France between 2007 and 2012, Mr Sarkozy was found guilty of criminal conspiracy to obtain illicit campaign funds from the regime of the late Libyan dictator, Muammar Gaddafi. Handed a five‑year sentence, he has become the first former leader of an EU country to go behind bars, and the first French leader since the disgraced head of Vichy France, Philippe Pétain. In a country in which the elected president enjoys a quasi-monarchical status, Tuesday’s extraordinary spectacle was a seminal moment.

Police continue to search for the criminal gang behind the brazen robbery targeting France’s crown jewels

The financial loss from France’s most dramatic heist in decades has been put at nearly €90m as the head of the Louvre prepared to face difficult questions over how thieves were able to steal priceless jewellery in broad daylight.

As police continued to search for the criminal gang behind the brazen robbery on Sunday, the Paris prosecutor Laure Beccuau told the broadcaster RTL that the museum’s curator had estimated the losses at about €88m (£76m).

Historic case over bribery and witness tampering has gripped nation and soured conservative strongman’s legacy

An appeals court has overturned the conviction of the former Colombian president Álvaro Uribe for bribery and witness tampering in a historic case that gripped the South American country and tarnished the conservative strongman’s legacy.

Uribe, 73, has denied any wrongdoing. He was sentenced to 12 years of house arrest in August following a nearly six-month trial in which prosecutors presented evidence that he attempted to influence witnesses who accused the law-and-order leader of having links to a paramilitary group in the 1990s.

White House says there are now no plans for summit ‘in the immediate future’ as latest efforts to end Ukraine war falter

• US politics live – latest updates

Plans to hold a summit between Donald Trump and Vladimir Putin in Budapest have been put on hold as Ukraine and its European allies rallied behind the US in pushing for a ceasefire without territorial concessions from Kyiv.

The White House said there were now “no plans” for the US president to meet his Russian counterpart “in the immediate future” as a round of diplomacy at the end of last week failed to yield any significant progress towards ending the war.

Columbia University graduate and legal US resident says Trump administration ‘wants to make an example of me’

• US politics live – latest updates

Attorneys for Mahmoud Khalil, the Columbia University graduate and legal US resident who was detained by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (Ice) following his pro-Palestinian activism, have filed appeals to prevent the Trump administration from detaining him again.

Lawyers representing Khalil argued to the federal third circuit court of appeals in Philadelphia that his release from Ice detention by a lower court should be affirmed and that the US government should be barred from detaining or deporting Khalil in the future.

US vice-president to visit Netanyahu while Hamas joins talks in Cairo meant to iron out differences

The US vice-president, JD Vance, expressed “great optimism” over the Gaza truce plan which he described as “durable” and “going better than expected”, during a visit to Israel on Tuesday, two days after Israeli airstrikes killed 26 Palestinians.

Vance’s trip, as part of the Trump administration’s efforts to strengthen the ceasefire agreement, comes as Hamas officials joined talks in Cairo meant to bridge outstanding differences with Israel.

Julia Roberts emerges unscathed but Luca Guadagnino’s tiring and muddled attempt to comment on trending topics doesn’t inspire the debates it so clearly wants

• Contains mild spoilers

In theory, After the Hunt, director Luca Guadagnino’s would-be psychological thriller tracing the fallout of a sexual-assault accusation at a cosseted Ivy League campus, hinges on a single early scene: Alma, the aloof and alluring philosophy professor made icily incandescent by Julia Roberts, arrives home to find Maggie, her doctoral student protege played by ascendant star Ayo Edebiri, waiting for her in the rain.

Crouched together in an apartment stairwell – Guadagnino, a slick and stylish film-maker, frames them facing each other as mirrored negatives in preppy neutrals, a generational yin-yang – Maggie tells Alma in clipped, digressive bits that something bad happened with Hank (Andrew Garfield), a fellow tenure-track professor who serves as Alma’s professional rival, friend and maybe lover. The two had left Alma’s the night before following an evening of drinking and tossing around airless provocations about how offending someone became “the pre-eminent cardinal sin”, or how “the common enemy has been chosen and it’s the straight, white, cis male”. After a nightcap at her apartment, Maggie says, Hank “crossed the line”.

• Tandy names wing in squad after 21-month absence

• Rhys Carré also included after he requalifies for selection

Louis Rees-Zammit is in line for an international comeback for Wales next month 21 months after abandoning the sport to try his luck in American football. Rees-Zammit, now 24, is among 39 players named in the first squad to be picked by the new national head coach, Steve Tandy.

The British & Irish Lions wing, who won the most recent of his 32 caps at the 2023 World Cup, made the switch to American football in January 2024 but ended up not featuring in a competitive NFL game. He returned to union in August when he joined the English Prem side Bristol.

Country mansion boasts 40 hectares of grounds yet discredited prince pays only ‘a peppercorn’ in rent each year

With its 30 rooms nestling in 40 hectares (98 acres) of secluded grounds in Windsor Great Park, Royal Lodge has been the home of Prince Andrew and his ex-wife Sarah Ferguson for two decades and been likened to a very grand country house.

Now it too is in the crosshairs of public outrage as pressure mounts to justify the discredited prince’s right to live in such grandeur in a crown estate property on “a peppercorn” rent.

An Italian restaurant shut up shop last week, with an angry and disappointed farewell note, blaming ‘neighbours’ for a lack of support ...

Name: Unappreciative customers.

Age: In the case of Don Ciccio, six years.

Experts say such dreams of dental distress may relate to the processing of various emotions and experiences

My teeth have fallen out at fancy dinners and in public restrooms. They’ve sprinkled from my mouth like enamel confetti before dates, important business meetings and major public speaking engagements. Each time, it’s troubling, stressful and deeply inconvenient. Fortunately, it’s only ever happened in my dreams.

“A lot of people have that dream,” says Dr Dylan Selterman, associate teaching professor in the department of psychological and brain sciences at Johns Hopkins University. People often tell Selterman they think it’s weird that they have this kind of dream, or assume it says something about their personality. “I don’t think that’s the case,” he says.

Cloud computing disruption highlights risk of deepening ties despite warnings from UK’s own regulators, including the Treasury

Amazon chief executive Andy Jassy beamed as he met Keir Starmer in Downing Street’s garden to announce £40bn of UK investments in June. Starmer was equally effusive, gushing: “This deal shows that our plan for change is working –bringing in investment, driving growth, and putting more money in people’s pockets.”

Four months later, and the tech company was left scrambling to fix a devastating global outage on Monday that left thousands of businesses in limbo – and shed light on the UK government’s reliance on its cloud computing business, Amazon Web Services (AWS).

The beauty industry has mastered selling us back an ersatz version of our own nature for enormous profit. Never has this been clearer than in the case of a sold-out modern-day merkin ...

Every writer has a “just in case” piece – the article they’ll write if their favourite artist dies, their beloved team wins, or the political moment they dreamed of arrives. I had mine all planned out. The piece: the bush is back! A 3,000-word essay about the quiet reclamation of pubic hair in all its unruly glory, replete with hair-raising puns befitting a story of such campy defiance.

But I must face the fact that I may never get to write this piece. Why? Because Kim Kardashian and her underwear brand Skims have ruined it, with the sale of a faux pubic hair thong called “the Ultimate Bush”. Launched last week with a video featuring models in a 70s-styled gameshow called “Does the carpet match the drapes?”, the £34 thong features a triangle of hair made of synthetic fibres to mimic pubic manes in 12 hair colour and texture combos. It sold out in under 24 hours, leaving the internet to wonder: who exactly is this product for? Those who regret lasering it all off? Or folks looking for some retro merkin fun?

Once hunted to the brink of extinction, the most venerable of the leviathans now numbers 384, up eight from past year

One of the rarest whales on the planet has continued an encouraging trend of population growth in the wake of new efforts to protect the giant animals, according to scientists who study them.

The North Atlantic right whale now numbers an estimated 384 animals, up eight whales from the previous year, according to a report by the North Atlantic Right Whale Consortium released on Tuesday. The whales have shown a trend of slow population growth over the past four years and have gained more than 7% of their 2020 population, the consortium said.

Christopher Moynihan, pardoned by Trump for his role in Capitol attack, allegedly threatened House minority leader

A man who was pardoned by Donald Trump for his conviction in the US Capitol attack carried out by the Republican president’s supporters in early 2021 has been arrested for allegedly threatening to kill the Democratic House minority leader, Hakeem Jeffries, according to authorities and the New York representative himself.

Christopher Moynihan, 34, was arrested by New York state police on a felony count of making terroristic threats, the agency announced.

Netflix, Comcast and Paramount Skydance are reportedly among possible bidders in sale that could shake up industry

Warner Bros Discovery is considering putting the entire company up for sale, a move that could see huge restructuring in an industry that has seen ripples of changes since Donald Trump took office.

The company initially said in June that it would split up Warner Bros and Discovery, after the two companies were merged in 2022. But after receiving “unsolicited interest … from multiple parties for both the entire company and Warner Bros”, according to a statement released on Monday, the entire company could be up for a transaction. The company could also split up Warner Bros and Discovery, selling off Discovery while merging Warner Bros with another company, it said.

Adderley, said to have made false claims about time in Navy, to be prosecuted over allegations of fraud and misconduct

The former Northamptonshire police chief constable Nick Adderley has been charged with fraud and misconduct in public office over allegations he made false claims about his military service and educational achievements when applying to work for the police, the Crown Prosecution Service (CPS) has said.

Adderley is accused of making false claims of being a decorated Navy officer while applying to work for the police, according to the Independent Office for Police Conduct (IOPC).

Products like Dekoda and Throne claim to offer health insights by tracking bowel movements – but who owns that data?

You can buy a smart ring to track your sleep activity or a smartwatch to monitor your heartbeat, so perhaps it makes sense that health tech’s next frontier has come for your toilet. Behold: Dekoda, Kohler’s new toilet cam. No, not that type of toilet cam: this one only shoots pictures down at what is inside the bowl, sending the snaps to an app that analyzes stool samples and rates your gut health. The Dekoda can be yours for $599, plus an annual subscription fee.

Kohler’s new product joins Throne, a $319 offering from an Austin-based startup. “Throne captures stool and hydration patterns, hands-free and automatically,” the camera’s description reads. “Notice shifts sooner, fine-tune daily choices, and feel more confident, every day.”

Legal teams are midway through a hearing over whether one vote truly swayed an election in a Montreal suburb

The case of a single vote which determined the outcome of a federal election in Canada risks sending the “disastrous message” to voters that “some votes count more than others”, says the lawyer of a former MP as a court considers whether to void the controversial election and hold a new vote.

Legal teams in Quebec are midway through a three-day hearing over whether a single vote – and an administrative error – truly swayed a recent election in a suburb north of Montreal.

• Jury rules Nicklaus defamed by former company

• False claims tied him to $750m LIV Golf offer

• 85-year-old legend awarded $50m in damages

Jack Nicklaus, the 18-time major champion, has won a $50m verdict in a defamation case against his former company, bringing an end to one of golf’s most bitter business feuds.

A jury in Palm Beach County, Florida, found that Nicklaus Companies – the firm he founded and later sold – defamed him by spreading false claims that he had considered a $750m offer to become a public face of the Saudi-backed LIV Golf League and that he was no longer mentally fit to manage his business affairs. The six-person jury ruled that the company’s actions damaged the 85-year-old’s reputation and exposed him to “ridicule, hatred, mistrust, distrust or contempt”.
