Fans of Israeli side banned from Aston Villa match
LONDON — A local safety advisory group, which issues safety certificates for matches at Villa Park in Birmingham, has advised that supporters of an Israeli football team should not attend a Europa League game at Aston Villa next month because of security concerns.The decision has been widely criticised by politicians — but backed by police, which has said the event is classified as "high-risk".British officials said Friday they were working to reverse the ban on Maccabi Tel Aviv soccer fans attending the fixture against Aston Villa.The ban drew condemnation from politicians, sports organizations and Jewish groups.Prime Minister Keir Starmer said the police recommendation to bar the visiting team’s fans from the November 6 game was “the wrong decision,” and European soccer’s...

France's beleaguered PM Lecornu survives two no-confidence votes
PARIS — French Prime Minister Sébastien Lecornu survived two no-confidence votes in parliament on Thursday, clinging to his fragile minority government.MPs of the National Assembly, the lower house of parliament, voted on two motions filed by the hard-left France Unbowed (LFI) and the far-right National Rally (RN), led by Marine Le Pen.The first motion filed by the hard left was narrowly rejected, garnering only 271 of the 289 votes needed to topple the government.The second motion filed by the far right also failed (144 votes) as the left refused to support it.Both groups were hoping to bring down Lecornu’s fragile government, less than a week after Macron controversially reappointed the prime minister after he had resigned.The RN, which already holds the largest number of seats in...
