World News 20th July
Remember last week, the UK Government accused Russia of spying on the vaccine companies in the UK. Turns out that the vaccine developed by UK company with Oxford University, is to be produced in Russia. Contract is with the Russian company to make the vaccine with the recipe from the UK.
Last week the Government banned Huawei (the Chinese telecom company) from being in UK 5G mobile phone network. Big public argument. But it turns out that UK was telling China that it was because of Trump putting pressure on UK to stop Huawei. This could mean that if Trump loses the election in November, then Boris might do another U-turn.
Chinese rocket ready for blast off .. to Mars. (see photo). It will carry a small vehicle which will land on Mars and wander about collecting samples. They are trying to find out evidence if there was life on Mars…. Like science fiction.
Only in America. A 15 year-old teenager in Michigan in USA was on probation because she had a fight with her mother and was stealing. But during lockdown when there was no school, she did not do her homework. A judge then sent her to prison. All her friends at school had a demonstration. There may be a review. If your kids don’t do their homework… it is worth telling them that they could end up in prison, like Grace in USA.
Police in USA are worried that he would skip off, so they locked him up. Not a person .. a kangaroo (see photo). Poor kangaroo behind bars. It was not legal to have a kangaroo as a pet but it seems he escaped from the owner.
