1989 (Taylor's Version) is finally here, and fans are reliving the 2014 album like it's the first time again. It was Taylor Swift's first proper jump into pop music, and the new and improved version features five tracks from the vault. However, despite the first album being erased from history for Swifties, the singer's excitement for its release during her promo interviews were arguably some of fans' favourite moments, including appearances on the likes of The View, Ryan Seacrest, and a Victoria's Secret Fashion Show performance.

Roy Hodgson believes an 11th-placed finish for Crystal Palace is an excellent achievement. A 1-1 draw at home to Nottingham Forest saw the south London outfit finish in their highest position since 2017-18, in a campaign that saw the 75-year old replace Patrick Vieira in March. A Will Hughes effort cancelled out an opener for Taiwo Awoniyi, but Hodgson – who refused to be drawn on his future – was proud of the club’s accomplishment. “An 11th place for Palace, in any season, is always acceptable. At the moment that is definitely where we want to be at least,” Hodgson said. “We can always hope we have a better season and some of the seasons beyond that, and hope we get into the top half. “But I think there’s always going to be a gap to teams which spend £200million or more on putting their playing staff together, whose only interest is getting into the Champions League. “I hope our fans and the club realise that’s a hell of an ask where you can finish higher than 11th or 12th.” Nottingham Forest took the lead in a 60-second spell that could have seen them fall behind. A shot by Eberechi Eze on the hour was blocked by Jordan Ayew, with goalkeeper Wayne Hennessey turning away a Hughes shot on the rebound. A long ball out of the Forest half almost immediately by Morgan Gibbs-White found Awoniyi, who got the better of Joachim Anderson in the box and slotted home. Palace equalised in the 65th minute, albeit with some good fortune. A cross by Michael Olise into the box was flicked on by Hughes past Hennessey – although the ball deflected off the challenging Willy Boly. While both sides were looking for a winning effort to round off the season, it proved to be a satisfactory – if winless – ending for both sides. Nottingham Forest head coach Steve Cooper revealed his appreciation for Hodgson, and also believed the travelling support got a deserved reward. “I said to Roy at the end it was an honour to come up against him. I’ve only done four years of this first-team lark,” Cooper said. “For him to do as much as he’s done and to have the career he’s done, I’m full of admiration. He doesn’t need any kind words from me, but at the same time it’s a privilege to come up against him. “We wanted to win and I think it was important to give the supporters a result. “Our away support has been incredible and we haven’t given them enough in terms of results and sometimes performances. “It could have been any result today and it would have been the same atmosphere, they’ve given us that.”

Supporters of former president Donald Trump heckled former vice president Mike Pence as a “traitor” as he visited the Iowa State Fair in Des Moines on Thursday. A video from Iowa Starting Line showed a fellow fairgoer at the former vice president for not being a true Christian. “Pence is a traitor every day,” she said. “Anybody who says they have a higher power, uses those words, he is not a Christian when you say higher power. We don’t buy it as believers, Pence. You are far from a Christian.” Trump supporters have long loathed Mr Pence - who indeed campaigns heavily on his staunch Christian beliefs - for his refusal to overturn the 2020 presidential election results on January 6. During the riot at the US Capitol, some supporters yelled “Hang Mike Pence.” Last week a grand jury handed down an indictment against Mr Trump for his attempts to overturn the 2020 presidential election results. The indictment detailed how Mr Pence took “contemporaneous notes” in the days between the 2020 election and the January 6 riot. The indictment says that Mr Pence repeatedly told Mr Trump that he did not think he had the authority to overturn the election results. On 1 January 2021, Mr Trump reportedly told Mr Pence he was “too honest.” Mr Pence has since been selling merchandise with the words “too honest” and has repeated that he did not have authority to nullify the election results. But he has struggled in his campaign for the 2024 Republican nomination for president. He consistently polls in the single digits and has not raised as much money as either Mr Trump or Florida Gov Ron DeSantis. Mr Pence said that enough people donated to his campaign from enough states for him to participate in the first Republican debate in Wisconsin later this month, Fox News reported.

An Australian woman has been taken into custody over the deaths of three people in July.

French people have been rioting for the last five nights after police shot and killed a teenager in Paris. Sadly, many people on social media have found a way to frame the events in a racist light, blaming migrants for the unrest or celebrating police brutality against ethnic minorities. The shooting of 17-year-old Nahel M, who had Algerian and Moroccan parents, has reignited long standing grievances among poor and ethnically mixed communities in France about racism and violence among the country’s police forces. It has also sparked wider anger in France’s poorest neighbourhoods over politicians' perceived lack of will or ability to tackle stark inequalities which have become deeply embedded in society, and which are often drawn along ethnic and class-based lines. Sign up to our free Indy100 weekly newsletter Clearly, it is a complex situation, and the rioting has led to burning public buildings, thousands of arrests and hundreds of injuries to both civilians and police. However, some people on social media have proven unable – or unwilling – to see the nuance. As more police were deployed in recent nights, some have shared videos of officers violently accosting protestors, who in many cases are people of colour. Some videos show police knocking people off motorbikes, dragging people to the floor and beating them up. Many show officers pointing guns at unarmed civilians. These posts have often been accompanied with celebratory comments, or worse, derogatory racist terms in reference to protestors. Others have suggested that the French government has fallen, which is fake news. Some have posted images of buildings on fire, explosions or damage to public infrastructure. The one thing many of these posts have in common is that they blame migrants, or pro-immigration policies in the European Union. As hatred spread across social media, Nahel was buried on Saturday. Friends and family attended a private funeral at Nanterre, near where the child was killed. A crowd gathered outside the local mosque and followed the coffin the the ceremony chanting: “Justice for Nahel.” A 38-year-old police officer has been put under investigation – the French equivalent of being charged – for voluntary homicide. Nahel’s death was the third fatal shooting by police during traffic stops in the country this year, and the 21st since 2020. Most of the victims have been of black or north African origin, according to Reuters. Many people on Twitter have called out the racist commenters for what they are. Roshan Salih, editor of British Muslim news site 5Pillars, said: “France is a racist and Islamophobic nation. The current riots are an inevitable expression of anger and frustration by the oppressed.” Syrian-British journalist Richard Medhurst said: “You have racists in France saying: ‘They are burning cars because they are African’. Same thing in the US during George Floyd protests. How come they care more about property than someone’s life? It’s simple: if you don’t want unrest, stop killing people.” Muslim social media influencer Fatima Barkatulla, meanwhile, responded to a tweet by Elon Musk – ever the paragon of measured, empathetic social commentary – where the Twitter chief executive said burning libraries, as has happened in Marseille, was “sacrilege”. She said: “Killing our sons is a greater sacrilege. France has been a heavy handed, brutal country in colonial times towards its Muslim/North African colonies. And continues to be oppressive towards them as citizens today.” Have your say in our news democracy.
