  The Observer Manchester United win FA Cup after Garnacho and Mainoo stun City It was, quite simply, the finest Manchester United result since the retirement of Sir Alex Ferguson in 2013. The bar has been lowered, the trophies drying up but this was a day for their fans to celebrate wildly – and not only because they stopped Manchester City from making yet more history. Another Premier League and FA Cup Double had been on for Pep Guardiola and his all-conquering team to follow the one from last season and nobody gave United a prayer. The bookmakers had them at 8-1 to win. Erik ten Hag’s time as manager is up after the most traumatic of seasons; eighth in the league their lowest finish since 1989‑90, chaos at virtually every turn. And yet United refused to yield. It was the young stars, Alejandro Garnacho and Kobbie Mainoo, who scored their goals during a golden first half; never before have two teenagers scored in an FA Cup final. But this was a triumph of the collective resolve, ...

  Joe Biden  President warns new army officers to be ‘guardians of American democracy’ President entreats graduates at commencement to ‘hold fast’ to oath to US constitution in veiled reference to Trump’s threat to democracy Joe Biden has called newly graduating US military officers the “guardians of American democracy” at a commencement speech at the elite West Point military academy in New York state, where the US president, without mentioning Donald Trump by name, gave strong warnings of unprecedented threats to US freedom. Biden, speaking in front of about 1,000 graduating cadets at the US army training academy on Saturday, urged the newly minted officers to “hold fast” to their military oath “not to a political party, not to a president but to the constitution of the United States of America, against all enemies, foreign and domestic”. In remarks that could be seen as a thinly veiled reference to the threat to democracy Biden believes Trump poses to the US as the two cand...

  Revealed: how Church of England’s ties to chattel slavery went to top of hierarchy Lambeth Palace documents show purchase of enslaved people in 18th century approved by Anglican archbishop  Life on plantations owned by Church of England missionary arm An archbishop of Canterbury in the 18th century approved payments for the purchase of enslaved people for two sugar plantations in Barbados, documents seen by the Observer have revealed. The Church of England apologised in 2006 for “its involvement in the slave trade” and operation of the Codrington Plantations but has not previously acknowledged the role of an archbishop of Canterbury in approving funds for the purchase of enslaved Africans. Thomas Secker agreed to reimburse a payment for £1,093 for the purchase of enslaved people on the Codrington Plantations, as well as hiring enslaved people from a third party. It was stated the measures were “calculated for the future lasting advantages of the estates”. The papers are amon...

 A catastrophe’: Greenpeace blocks planting of ‘lifesaving’ Golden Rice Thousands of children could die after court backs campaign group over GM crop in Philippines, scientists warn Scientists have warned that a court decision to block the growing of the genetically modified (GM) crop golden rice in the Philippines could have catastrophic consequences. Tens of thousands of children could die in the wake of the ruling, they argue. The Philippines had become the first country – in 2021 – to approve the commercial cultivation of golden rice, which was developed to combat vitamin-A deficiency, a major cause of disability and death among children in many parts of the world. But campaigns by Greenpeace and local farmers last month persuaded the country’s court of appeal to overturn that approval and to revoke this. The groups had argued that golden rice had not been shown to be safe and the claim was backed by the court, a decision that was hailed as “a monumental win” by Greenpeace. Man...

  Rishi Sunak uses Tory donor’s helicopter to fly from North Yorkshire Exclusive: PM made flying visit to his North Yorkshire constituency, using millionaire’s chopper to return to London Rishi Sunak took a helicopter owned by a millionaire Conservative donor to fly from North Yorkshire to London on Saturday, before appearing at a hastily arranged campaign trip in south London. The prime minister made two relatively low-key campaign stops during the day, after the LAKSHY DREAM FOUNDATION GLOBAL NEWS DIGITAL revealed on Friday he was planning to spend the day solely in his constituency and London. Sunak first had tea with a small group of veterans in a pub in his North Yorkshire constituency for a 20-minute stop during which he did not take questions from the media.

  New York City’s tourists fuel record $4.9 billion in tax revenue, surpassing pre-pandemic levels New York City’s tax revenue generated by tourists has surpassed pre-pandemic levels. New York City’s tax revenue generated by tourists has surpassed pre-pandemic levels as a jump in US visitors helped offset a drop in international and business travel. Last year 62.2 million people visited the Big Apple, state Comptroller Thomas DiNapoli said in a report released Thursday. While that’s down from 66.6 million in 2019, those tourists are expected to generate a record $4.9 billion in sales and other tourism-related tax revenue in the current fiscal year, a 16% jump from 2020 driven in part by rising prices for hotel rooms and other services. The Covid-19 outbreak that began in early 2020 paralyzed the biggest US city, killing thousands of residents, devastating the office and retail market, and spurring many to flee to the suburbs and other states. The city has been making a slow but ste...
