Trump Would Murder As Many Enemies As Kim Jong Un If He Could, 'Art of the Deal' Ghostwriter Says
President Donald Trump’s Art of the Deal ghostwriter said that the president would “murder as many enemies as North Korean leader Kim Jong Un” if he had the same power and lack of consequence. Speaking to MSNBC's AM Joy on Saturday, Tony Schwartz said he believed Trump would act like a dictator if he thought he could get away with it. "If Trump had the power that Kim Jong Un does... and the lack of consequence if he, quote, 'breaks the law,' I believe that Trump would be murdering as many enemies as Kim Jong Un does," Schwartz said.

Glasgow School of Art: sprinklers had not been fitted after first fire
Hopes have been raised that Glasgow School of Art’s Mackintosh building, which was gutted by fire on Friday, can be saved as it emerged a new sprinkler system had not yet been fitted as part of the restoration following an earlier blaze. On Sunday, as fire crews used thermal imaging cameras to identify any remaining hotspots, conservation experts argued that a fresh recovery project could build on the detail, skill and knowledge accumulated during the restoration of the treasured Mackintosh Library, which was almost entirely destroyed by fire in May 2014. Disbelief and sympathy has been expressed across the world over the misfortune of the building, considered the masterwork of the art nouveau architect and designer Charles Rennie Mackintosh, after it was engulfed in flames for a second time.

Theresa May’s promise of funding NHS through ‘Brexit dividend’ dismissed as ‘tosh’ by senior Tory
A senior Tory has dismissed Theresa May’s pledge that the “Brexit dividend” will pay for extra NHS funding and accused her of treating the public “like fools” over the lack of clear costing announced. In an interview with Andrew Marr, Mrs May referred to an unspecified “sum of money” that would be “available from the European Union”, but was vague about where the rest of the funding and hinted it would come from higher taxation. Commons Health Committee chairwoman Sarah Wollaston branded the “dividend” talk “tosh” and said she was sad to see the Government "slide to populist arguments".
