Topcliffe, a village in North Yorkshire, has been identified as the coldest spot in England on Wednesday night with temperatures plunging to -9.4C, making it the chilliest November night since 2010. This was highlighted by BBC weatherman Paul Hudson on social media, where he remarked: "Minus 9.4C at Topcliffe in North Yorkshire last night is the lowest November temperature anywhere in England since 2010." Topcliffe is about 30 miles south of Middlesbrough , and five miles south-west of Thirsk The Met Office has issued a yellow weather warning for snow and ice across large parts of the country, including Yorkshire, cautioning that "Wintry showers and icy patches are expected this evening and overnight, perhaps leading to some travel disruption." Teesside has had numerous warnings for snow and ice during the cold spell, but has yet to hit by any serious snowfall. Storm Bert is set to hit the region at the weekend, bringing strong wind to the area. Huddersfield's own weather expert Paul Stevens suggests the weekend could bring stormy conditions, with potential gusts hitting 50-60mph, accompanied by heavy rain and possibly snow from Saturday, reports Yorkshire Live .. The record for the lowest temperature in England still stands from January 10, 1982, when Newport, Shropshire saw the mercury drop to -26.1C, while Braemar in east Scotland experienced a bone-chilling -27.2C on the same day.

He won the Nobel Peace Prize in 2002 for his work in finding peaceful solutions to international conflicts, advancing democracy and human rights, and promoting social and economic development. For more than 35 years, Carter and wife Rosalynn volunteered with Habitat for Humanity, joining “Habitat builds” in the United States and abroad. They also founded the Carter Center , committing to human rights and to alleviating human suffering. Jimmy Carter, a peanut farmer from Georgia, served one term in the White House before losing the 1980 presidential election to Ronald Reagan. Carter served as a naval officer before entering politics he was elected governor of Georgia in 1970. Here are a few of the former president’s memorable quotes. On war and peace “War may sometimes be a necessary evil. But no matter how necessary, it is always an evil, never a good. We will not learn how to live together in peace by killing each other's children. The bond of our common humanity is stronger than the divisiveness of our fears and prejudices.” – Nobel lecture on Dec. 10, 2002, after winning the Nobel Peace Prize On government watchdogs “Thoughtful criticism and close scrutiny of all government officials by the press and the public are an important part of our democratic society.” – Presidential farewell address on Jan. 14, 1981 Peacemaker, not policeman “We have no desire to be the world's policeman. But America does want to be the world's peacemaker.” – 1979 State of the Union address On marijuana decriminalization "Penalties against possession of a drug should not be more damaging to an individual than the use of the drug itself; and where they are, they should be changed. Nowhere is this more clear than in the laws against possession of marijuana in private for personal use. We can, and should, continue to discourage the use of marijuana, but this can be done without defining the smoker as a criminal." – 1977 message to Congress about drug abuse On Abu Ghraib and Guantanamo “Since 2001, the U.S. government has abandoned its role as a champion of human rights and has perpetrated terrible and illegal abuses in prisons in Abu Ghraib and Guantanamo, sent prisoners secretly to other nations to be tortured, denied the applicability of the Geneva Convention restraints, and severely restricted time-honored civil liberties within our own country. Certain political leaders of other nations, who are inclined to perpetrate human rights abuses to quiet dissenting voices and were previously restrained by positive influence from Washington, now feel free to emulate or exceed the abuses approved by American leaders.” – 2007 book, "Beyond the White House: Waging Peace, Fighting Disease, Building Hope" On human rights “I realize that violence is not more prevalent today than in previous periods of human history, but there is a difference. We have seen visionary standards adopted by the global community that espouse peace and human rights, and the globalization of information ensures that the violation of these principles of nonviolence by a powerful and admired democracy tends to resonate throughout the world community. We should have advanced much further in the realization of women's rights, given these international commitments to peace and the rule of law.” – 2014 book, "A Call to Action: Women, Religion, Violence, and Power" On children and gun violence “Every day in the United States, seventeen children are killed by gunfire. That’s about 6,000 children each year who are killed by guns, as compared, for example, with about 3,000 a year who died at the height of the polio epidemic of the 1950s. We rose up as a society to fight against polio. Why do we not act more forcefully to halt today’s even greater scourge?” – 1997 book, "Sources of Strength: Meditations on Scripture for a Living Faith" On drugs and the justice system "I don't think there's any doubt that the drug culture has shaped at least one major change, and that is the treatment of prisoners. When I was governor, I competed with other progressive Southern governors in who could reduce our prison population the most. ... But now, with the increase of the drug culture, politicians brag about how many prisons they’ve built. We have a massive increase in prison occupancy, and the punishment for drug use has become the pre-eminent basis for overloading our courts and prisons." – 2007 Rolling Stone interview

With Jagjit Singh Dallewal's indefinite hunger strike entering its 34th day on Sunday, farmer leaders at Khanauri said they have been following the Gandhian way to continue their protest and it is up to the government to decide whether it wants to use force to evict their senior leader. Their statement comes amid the Supreme Court's strong criticism of the Punjab government for not shifting Dallewal to a hospital.

Speaking to reporters at the Khanauri border protest site, farmer leader Abhimanyu Kohar said, "We want to make it clear that the Centre, right from day one, has been trying to defame and suppress our agitation." He said a narrative is being built that farmers are stubborn. "Whereas it is the Centre that is adopting such an attitude, not listening to us and not paying any attention to farmers' demands." "We are continuing our agitation by adopting Gandhian principles. Our agitations have proven that, despite enduring so much due to the government's oppression, we have continued to protest in a Gandhian manner," he said.

Now, it is up to the government and constitutional bodies to decide whether they want to use force to evict Dallewal ji," Kohar added. He further said the farmers wanted to make it clear that whatever situation arises, the responsibility will lie with the Centre and constitutional bodies. "We also want to appeal to the people of the country that the agitation seeking a guarantee for MSP has reached a decisive stage. We are on the threshold of victory... We must take a strong stand. Dallewal has put his life at stake," he said. Kohar said it was up to the people of the country to decide whether to stay at home or be present in large numbers at the Khanauri Morcha in support of Dallewal. SKM (Non-political) leader Kaka Singh Kotra said the government can try to evict Dallewal from the current protest site and their unions are appealing to Punjabis to reach Khanauri in maximum numbers. He also said Dallewal has made it clear that he is ready to sacrifice his life for the sake of farmers in this country. Meanwhile, farmers, on a warpath against the Centre, called for a "kisan mahapanchayat" at the Khanauri protest site on January 4. Samyukta Kisan Morcha (Non-political) and Kisan Mazdoor Morcha have also called for a Punjab bandh on Monday and claimed their strike call has received strong support from transporters, employees, traders, and other sections of society. Though there will be a complete bandh on Monday, emergency services will remain operational, farmer leader Sarwan Singh Pandher said. On Saturday, while admonishing the Punjab government, the Supreme Court also suggested the possibility that Dallewal may not have been allowed to be taken to a hospital by other farmer leaders. In response, Dallewal, in a video message on the same day , said, "I am sitting on a fast. Who gave this report to the Supreme Court, and who spread this misconception that I have been kept hostage? Where did such a thing come from?" "Seven lakh farmers in this country have committed suicide due to debt. Saving farmers is necessary, therefore, I am sitting here. I am not under anyone's pressure," he added. Dallewal had earlier said he would not break his fast until the government agreed to the farmers' demands. The Supreme Court gave the Punjab government time until December 31 to persuade Dallewal to shift to a hospital, granting the state the liberty to seek logistical support from the Centre, if necessary. In response the Punjab government said in the court that it is facing significant resistance from the protesting farmers, who have encircled Dallewal and are preventing him from being taken to a hospital. The apex court also termed the conduct of some farmer leaders accompanying Dallewal as surprising and questionable. Dallewal has so far refused medical treatment, and the state government has formed a team of doctors to monitor his health round-the-clock. Farmers, under the banner of SKM (Non-Political) and Kisan Mazdoor Morcha, have been camping at the Shambhu and Khanauri border points between Punjab and Haryana since February 13, after their march to Delhi was stopped by security forces. A "jatha" (group) of 101 farmers attempted to march to Delhi on foot three times between December 6 and 14 but were stopped by security personnel from Haryana. In addition to a legal guarantee for MSP, the farmers are demanding a debt waiver, pensions for farmers and farm labourers, no hike in electricity tariffs, the withdrawal of police cases, and "justice" for the victims of the 2021 Lakhimpur Kheri violence.

Trump shared his perspective of how his meeting with Trudeau went in a post on Truth Social, saying they touched on number of key issues related to border safety, illegal drug trafficking and, most importantly, trade. The meeting comes just days after Trump threatened to slap massive 25-per-cent tariffs on Canadian products being imported into the U.S. “I just had a very productive meeting” with Trudeau, Trump wrote on his social network. “I made it very clear that the United States will no longer sit idly by as our Citizens become victims to the scourge of this Drug Epidemic.” Donald Trump’s post from Truth Social Saturday. “Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has made a commitment to work with us to end this terrible devastation of U.S. Families,” he continued. “We also spoke about many other important topics like Energy, Trade, and the Arctic. All are vital issues that I will be addressing on my first days back in Office, and before,” Trump said. In his own post on X Saturday afternoon, Trudeau shared a photo of them and thanked Trump for the dinner, writing “I look forward to the work we can do together, again.” Thanks for dinner last night, President Trump. I look forward to the work we can do together, again. However, there was no indication that Trump has changed his mind about imposing a massive 25-per-cent surcharge on all imports from Canada, which would have a devastating impact on Canada’s energy, auto and manufacturing exports. Trump’s post on Truth Social did not address it. The Star reported Friday that the face-to-face meeting was suggested by Trudeau, according to sources familiar with the communications between the two sides. The meeting was accompanied by several of the future president’s advisers and their wives and was described by a senior Canadian official as a positive, wide-ranging discussion.
