Kemi Badenoch blames Donald Trump's 2020 election defeat to Joe Biden

Kemi Badenoch has blamed Donald Trump's 2020 electoral defeat for the Government's failure to secure a free-trade deal with the US – a key goal of the UK's post-Brexit plans.
The Business Secretary claimed President Joe Biden's White House moved away from such deals, instead preferring to strike 'smaller packages on single issues'. 
She said the change in administrations in Washington had been why the Government missed its manifesto pledge to strike trade deals by the end of 2022 with countries that account for 80 per cent of British trade. Mrs Badenoch told MPs on the Business and Trade Committee: 
'The biggest thing that had an impact on us reaching that objective was the change in administration from President Trump to President Biden. 
'We were carrying out negotiations for a US FTA [free trade agreement]. The administration changed and the Biden administration is not doing FTAs.' 
Her comments came on Tuesday just hours before Mr Trump pressured his closest rival for the Republican candidacy to drop out of the contest after beating her in New Hampshire, winning 54.5 per cent of the vote.

Photos: Stop everything & check out Cristiano Ronaldo's mega-mansion on Dubai's 'Billionaire's Island'

Cristiano Ronaldo has reportedly purchased a mega-mansion on 'Billionaires Island' in Dubai.
The Al-Nassr superstar - who boast an incredible property portfolio across multiple countries - enjoyed a brilliant 2023 where he was the top scorer in the world. Ronaldo - who earns £175m-a-year with the Saudi club - will be honoured for this achievement at the Globe Soccer Awards in Dubai, a city where he now has a new residence.
According to Bloomberg, the Portuguese superstar has bought a mansion on Jumeirah Bay Island, which is better known as 'Billionaires Island', a secluded Dubai enclave that is home to the super rich. 
The report claims Ronaldo will receive the mega-mansion at some point in 2024 and while specifications are not known, it is rumoured to cost in the region of tens of millions of euros. 


For context, a separate mansion for sale on Billionaires Island - which only opened in 2017 - is measured at 30,000 square metres, has six bedrooms, private access to the beach, a showroom for seven cars, a spa, a swimming pool with a view of downtown Dubai and accommodation for employees on site. 

It is known as Billionaires Island because the number of billionaires who live there per square km reportedly surpasses any other location in the UAE, with Bloomberg also reporting how the island is home to wealthy Saudis, Israelis, Indians and Russians.

Golden Globes 2024: The full list of winners

On Sunday the 7th of January 2024, the 2024 Golden Globe Awards wrapped up, honoring the standouts in television and film. 
This year's ceremony was the 81st Golden Globe Awards and it hosted by comedian Jo Koy and broadcast live from the Beverly Hilton in Beverly Hills, California, following a star-studded red carpet pre-show.

"Barbie" and "Succession" both came into the night with nine nominations, tied for the most of any other movie or TV show. "Barbie" was competing for the best musical or comedy motion picture award, but lost out to "Poor Things," while "Succession" was nominated for and won best television drama. "Succession" stars Kieran Culkin, Sarah Snook and Matthew MacFadyen also took home acting awards for their roles in the acclaimed HBO series. 
But the team behind "Barbie" didn't go home empty-handed. The box office smash took home a new award, cinematic and box office achievement — beating out Taylor Swift's "Eras Tour" concert film, among others — and Billie Eilish's "What Was I Made For?" won best original song. 

"Oppenheimer," the other half of the box office phenomenon dubbed Barbenheimer, scored eight nominations, the second most of any movie or TV show. "Oppenheimer" won best drama motion picture, beating out five other films, including Martin Scorsese's "Killers of the Flower Moon" and Bradley Cooper's Leonard Bernstein biopic "Maestro." "Oppenheimer" director Christopher Nolan also took home a Golden Globe, as did actors Robert Downey Jr. and Cillian Murphy and the film's composer, Ludwig Gƶransson. 

This was the first Golden Globes being held since the Hollywood Foreign Press Association, which used to run the award ceremony, disbanded following a series of scandals. 
The Golden Globes assets were sold to Dick Clark Productions, which had long co-produced the show with the HFPA. 
The ceremony was broadcast live on CBS and streamed live on Paramount+ and the CBS app. 

CBS and Paramount+ are part of Paramount Global, which also owns CBS News.
