Wet winter, hot summer? What ‘climate whiplash’ means for the UK
https://theconversation.com/wet-winter-hot-summer-what-climate-whiplash-means-for-the-uk-277353
After a dry 2025 with the UK’s warmest summer on record, winter 2026 delivered something very different: rain for 50 days in a row in parts of Devon and Cornwall, one of the rainiest seasons on record and only 80% of average sunshine.

Scientists have given this a name: climate whiplash.

Deform UK Party Ltd receives second big donation from crypto investor

The donations mean Reform received more in donations in the last quarter than the Labour Party.

There should be a cap on political donations!!

That said, Deform UK Party Ltd just lost a by-election to a party that only received £160,763 in donations Q1 2025 https://www.electoralcommission.org.uk/media-centre/political-parties-accept-ps1295m-donations-first-quarter-2025

https://www.technologyreview.com/2026/02/19/1133360/microsoft-has-a-new-plan-to-prove-whats-real-and-whats-ai-online/
A new proposal calls on social media and AI companies to adopt strict verification, but the company hasn’t committed to following its own recommendations.

Ofcom has published their 9th annual (2026) monitoring report into the Net Neutrality guidelines, which were originally established to prevent unfair blocking or slowing of access to legal websites and internet services by broadband ISPs and mobile operators. Overall the UK telecoms regulator has “not identified any significant cause for concern“, although EE may have an issue with tethering restrictions.

Switzerland: US analytics firm takes Republik magazine to court
https://europeanjournalists.org/blog/2026/02/17/switzerland-us-analytics-firm-takes-republik-magazine-to-court/
The American company Palantir Technologies has filed a lawsuit against Republik, an independent Swiss media outlet that published an in-depth investigation into its activities. The case is currently being heard by the Zurich Commercial Court. The European Federation of Journalists (EFJ) considers this legal action to be a potential case of a SLAPP suit (strategic lawsuit against public participation).
