1) Following the cancellation of his show by several venues at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival, Graham Linehan, a well-known critic of transgender activism, made a public vow outside the Scottish Parliament to oppose what he described as "evil trans activists". Linehan's stance and comments have generated both support and backlash, as the conversation around transgender rights continues to be a hot topic in the UK and beyond.

2) There have been swirling rumours that the highly anticipated video game GTA 6 may utilize facial recognition technology to prevent children from accessing the game. This speculation has raised questions about privacy, surveillance, and the ethics of using such technology in the gaming industry. As GTA 6 draws closer to its release date, many are watching to see if the rumours prove true and, if so, how they will be implemented.

3) A recent investigation has revealed that the Welsh Government has been using taxpayers' money to fund Drag Queen Story Hour events. These events, where drag queens read books to children, have been both praised for promoting inclusivity and criticized for their appropriateness.

4) In London, an anonymous group called "Blade Runners" is fighting against Mayor Sadiq Khan's ULEZ scheme by disabling its cameras at night. These actions, driven by frustration, reflect growing resistance to the controversial policy allegedly aimed at reducing pollution through stricter emission standards.

5) A landmark ruling by a US federal judge has determined that works 'created' by artificial intelligence (AI) are not eligible for copyright protection. The case has set a precedent in the ongoing debate about AI and intellectual property rights. The ruling suggests that only human creators can hold copyright, raising questions about the future of 'AI-generated art, literature, and music'. As AI continues to evolve and 'create' more complex works, this issue is expected to remain at the forefront of legal and ethical discussions.
