Ceramic poppies return to Tower of London to mark WWII end

Ceramic poppies will return to the Tower of London in a new commemorative display marking 80 years since the end of the Second World War.

Opening on 6 May 2025 and running through to Armistice Day in November, the display will feature nearly 30,000 ceramic poppies from the original 2014 installation, ‘Blood Swept Lands and Seas of Red’.

The artwork transformed the Tower’s moat into a sea of red, attracting more than five million visitors and becoming a national site of remembrance.

Supreme Court STOPS Trump Use of 1798 Law to Deport Venezuelans |Clash Erupts Over Alien Enemies Act

In a stunning late-night decision, the U.S. Supreme Court has halted the Trump administration’s controversial plan to deport Venezuelan migrants under the Alien Enemies Act of 1798 — a wartime law not used since WWII. The emergency ruling comes after civil rights groups warned of mass deportations at Texas detention centers, invoking fears of legal overreach and ethnic targeting. Justices Clarence Thomas and Samuel Alito dissented, setting the stage for a dramatic legal showdown. Is history repeating itself?
