Nigel Farage says mental health cases hugely overdiagnosed
Reform leader claims GPs creating a ‘class of victims’ in elections speech
Nigel Farage says the UK is “massively overdiagnosing those with mental illness problems” and creating a “class of victims”.
In comments likely to provoke a backlash from parents of children with special educational needs and disabilities (Send), the leader of Reform UK said it was too easy to get a mental health diagnosis from a GP.

Creepy Redneck Dinosaur Mansion 3 review – reality-bending daftness
PC; Strange Scaffold
What looks like a glitchy dinosaur-hunting puzzler turns out to be a meta game about game development that the player patches as they go
The haunted house has become a ripe location in which to set weird video games. Lorelei and the Laser Eyes, Blue Prince, Botany Manor and Layers of Fear spring to mind. The manor as a site of danger, supernatural peril, untrustworthy architecture – perfect, surely, for an unsettling experience. Or even a silly experience in unsettling surroundings.
Creepy Redneck Dinosaur Mansion 3 promises much in its title. It presents initially as a high-concept dinosaur-hunting adventure in spooky house run by a sinister old mogul, then quickly reveals to the player that it knows it is a video game. A broken video game, that is, and it is up to us to patch it as we go.

China calls reports of ongoing US tariff talks ‘baseless’ while Trump claims administration ‘actively’ seeking deal – live
Spokesperson for China’s ministry of commerce says any claims of progress in China-US negotiations are ‘without factual evidence’
South Africa’s President Cyril Ramaphosa has said he talked about the war in Ukraine and the need to foster good bilateral relations with the US in his phone call with Donald Trump.
“We both agreed that the war should be brought to an end as soon as possible to stop further unnecessary deaths... to meet soon to address various matters regarding US-South Africa relations,” Ramaphosa wrote in a post on X.

Trump administration kills landmark pollution settlement in majority-Black county
Decision will affect mostly low-income Alabama residents as DoJ dismisses agreement over untreated sewage as DEI
The Trump administration has killed a landmark civil rights settlement requiring Alabama to address raw sewage pollution in majority-Black, residential areas south-west of Montgomery, dismissing it as an “illegal” diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) agreement.
The decision could condemn low-income people in Lowndes county, about 40 miles south-west of Montgomery, to indefinitely continue living with no or failing sanitation infrastructure.

Until Dawn review – efficient, if unscary, video game horror
A solidly made adaptation of the Playstation hit sees a group of twentysomethings stuck in a gory death loop
A week after the release of Ryan Coogler’s unusual, artfully crafted horror Sinners, we are now back to the industry’s genre norm with Until Dawn, a schlocky video game adaptation that has far less on its mind. Such a drastic drop in IQ and ambition means there’s no serious comparison to be made here and this weekend there’ll be no real competition at the box office (Sinners is likely to remain on top) so such contrast does ultimately allow the film to stay within its own, sillier space, a deep-fried donut for dessert after a filet mignon entree.
On its own, lower-stakes terms, Until Dawn is a passable, if rather unfrightening frightener, made with some skill and enlivened by a strong troupe of young actors, enough to notch it slightly above the piss-poor standard but not quite enough to really justify its existence. The game it’s based on has been described by the director David F Sandberg as “pretty much a 10-hour movie” but with interactive elements, the idea being that you can affect the direction of a narrative that would otherwise be fixed. There’s obviously no such gimmick here (at times one wonders what a Bandersnatch-style choose-your-own-adventure version would look like) and so instead, there’s a replication of the gaming process. In Until Dawn the movie, when the characters die they’re then brought back to life to die all over again.

2025 NFL Draft best bets: How to wager on Shedeur Sanders, the Jets, Giants and more
Gary Lineker’s critics have got it wrong. It’s reasonable to talk about more than sport | Max Rushden
The Match of the Day presenter has been challenged again on his views on Gaza and Israel. But can we really expect him to have no opinions about the outside world?
The most extraordinary revelation to come from Gary Lineker’s interview with Amol Rajan on the BBC is that he’d sometimes come home from school to find Engelbert Humperdinck playing cards with his dad. Surprisingly, almost all the reaction to the conversation has ignored this bombshell – Engelbert apparently not such a big player in the culture war world; best focus on your Middle Easts, your Bravermans, your impartialities, Brian.
Of course the job of news outlets is to pick out headlines but it does appear almost no one has watched the whole programme. It’s essentially a nice wide-ranging interview covering the career of one of the best English footballers and football broadcasters of all time.

Kristen Stewart’s directorial debut and Lynne Ramsay’s latest among significant Cannes additions
Ramsay’s Die, My Love, starring Jennifer Lawrence and Robert Pattinson, helps take number of female directors in competition to a record-breaking seven
Lynne Ramsay’s long-awaited new film, Die, My Love, has been announced as a late addition to this year’s Cannes competition lineup. The film, which is Ramsay’s first for eight years, stars Jennifer Lawrence and Robert Pattinson and concerns a woman in rural America who experiences psychosis after the birth of her baby.
The inclusion of Ramsay’s movie takes the number of female director’s in the official selection to seven – a record for the festival. It also means that a British director is now in the running for this year’s Palme d’Or.

‘I hum the Chariots of Fire theme all day, every day’: Nigel Havers on beach-running, playing Michael Caine’s son and hating his name
The quintessential English actor answers your questions about being posh, appearing on I’m a Celebrity, and asking parked motorists to turn off their engines
I’m obsessed with the BBC Radio 4 programme, Nigel Havers’ Ravers, where you recount your experiences during the ecstasy-fuelled 90s summers of love. I’ve never been sure if it was a) genuine, b) a brilliant and strange parody, or c) a fever dream of my own imagination. What’s the truth, Nigel? UncleMonty
I just don’t remember it, so I’m Googling it … “Dermot O’Leary, Nigel Havers Ravers, the definitive guide to the 90s underground rave scene from a man who lived through it.” Raves are where people go mad, take a load of drugs and dance all night, right? I don’t think I’ve been to a rave in my life. I must have been bullshitting.
I had you in my cab once in Sydney, where you were expounding to your fellow passengers that you could identify the drama school of any young performer on stage. That was 35 years ago, mate. Still the case, you reckon? moodmeister
I don’t know what I meant by that, so I’m afraid that’s also bollocks.
Do you still ask parked motorists to switch off their engines? gregc1381
All the time. I tap on the window and say: “Do you mind turning your engine off?” The majority go: “Oh, sorry, quite right,” but a few do say: “Fuck off, what are you talking about?” I carry a little card that explains that an idling exhaust expels 150 balloons full of toxic air per minute. If nobody idled in Greater London tomorrow, it would cut pollution by a third. I know this because I was a Stop Idling ambassador for Westminster Council. I’m a fierce anti-idler.
Do you have a portrait in your attic that is mysteriously ageing? You look exactly the same as you did 40 years ago. Megatron66
Yes, but don’t tell anyone.
