NEWS GLOBAL




THIS WEEK'S STORIES
From a myriad of news and feature articles published throughout the world each week, a selection is made to republish on Connect. From those selected, our local editorial team choose specific themes to share.
Our intention is to make available thought provoking articles on major topics of interest in today's world. Whilst we have no answers, we understand enough to know, we all need to ask searching questions.
We hope you find the selection valuably informative.

HOMES - A WIN-WIN PROJECT
A new scheme is training ex-offenders in construction - so they can build homes for people experiencing homelessness. Reoffending has fallen - and people have homes. This is a life-transforming project.

ABSURD CLAIMS FOR DIGITAL ID
Whether PM Keir Starmer really claimed digital ID will make us all slimmer and more popular - and bring us everlasting love - the point is, the "reasons" for DGID are feeble, at best - and gaslighting, at worst.

CAMBRIDGE UNI'S MILITARY LINKS
Cambridge Uni - after pressure from students - will reduce its financial investment in the arms industry. Students are asking questions about whether the uni is profiting from Gazan genocide and oppression.
