Deliveroo launches legal action over UK cannabis dealer’s name

The founder of the UK’s ‘biggest’ online weed dispensary - hilariously named ‘Dispenseroo’ - has claimed to have figured out a way to deliver THC buds, pre-rolls, hash and edibles to customers who freely order on the clear web.

The site is clearly laid out like your typical online shop - only, it’s aimed at those who want to unwind by firing one up.

Member of LGBTQ+ community argues it's 'counterproductive' to boycott World Cup

The country has a penalty ‘of up to seven years’ imprisonment’ for those in the LGBTQ+ community who have intercourse with a person of the same sex, as well as operating a version of Sharia law, which means it is possible for men who are intimate with another man to be sentenced to death.

Britton asked: “Are we going to end up in a situation where the West dictates that countries who don’t agree with every single policy then, therefore, can’t put a football team together? As that wouldn’t be mu

Woman Who Suffered 'Incomplete Miscarriage' Denied Treatment Under Anti-Abortion Law And Left To Bleed

The unidentified woman bled for 10 days after staff refused to remove the pregnancy tissue from her uterus for fear that they would be infringing on Wisconsin’s 1849 ban on abortions, which is back into effect now that the Supreme Court has overturned Roe v Wade.

The law states that performing an abortion is a criminal offence, with notable exception. Abortions are only permitted in Wisconsin when deemed ‘necessary, or is advised by two other physicians as necessary, to save the life of the mot

Men Are Downloading Period Tracking Apps To 'Cause Chaos' After Roe v Wade Overturning

Ray Walsh told Tyla: "By downloading and using period tracking apps to add static to cycle tracking databases that could be leveraged by law enforcement to find women suspected of having a termination, men can help to support this important cause by potentially making it harder for the authorities to pinpoint women suspected of having an abortion.

"While the potential exists for large-scale menstrual-cycle-app data analysis to be used to find women suspected of having an abortion, it seems more

US Supreme Court Eliminates Women's Right To Abortion

Millions of people in the US will now lose the legal right to obtain an abortion after the Supreme Court overturned the milestone 1973 legislation that guarantees women the right to abort up until foetal viability.

The judgement is said to now be transforming abortion rights in the USA, with individual states now being able to decide whether to ban the procedure.

In May, a draft opinion was leaked on Roe v Wade that suggested that the Supreme Court would vote in favour of overturning the legis

Model Who Says She Was Sexually Abused By Agency Boss 'Blamed Herself For Years'

Speaking of her inability to escape the situation with Gérald, Carré said: “I was 17, I was totally 17 and so in over my head. I mean, this whole world - I had never been out of The United States, I’d never been to New York. I was so in over my head, and he really held all of the cards.

“It was organised for me to come to New York, it was organised for me to go to Paris and stay in the apartment of the boss. And I also thought that might be a hopeful thing, that I was the sort of ‘chosen one’.

People Are Concerned The Depp-Heard Trial Will Set A Precedent For Future Survivors

The jury found that Amber did in fact defame her previous partner in an op-ed for The Washington Post, titled: “I spoke up against sexual violence — and faced our culture’s wrath. That has to change.”

Despite not identifying her former partner in the article by name, the jury determined that the Aquaman star acted with ‘malice’ in the article, and subsequently ordered that she payout Johnny $15 million in damages, which was later reduced to $10.35m by Judge Penny Azcarate due to Virginia's stat

Others responded to the thread, writing: “In 2nd grade (Year three), 8 years ago, my kid cried telling me about their shooting drill and how her teacher would try and ‘fight’ the shooter so they had to run as fast as they could out of the room and they all started crying and

Anu, 41, was subjected to sexual abuse from the age of three by a member of her household. For Anu, watching events unfold from a trial that details allegations of sustained abuse from both parties – and the way they have been played for laughs – is hard to take.

“It’s led to the public really not taking this seriously anymore and I fear that the p

Should I Delete My Period-Tracking App?

The news has sparked concern among women about the kind of data they are sharing regarding periods, miscarriages and terminations over fears that it could be shared with the authorities and used to prosecute them.

"There appears to be a real danger that if anti-abortion laws are passed in the US, menstrual cycle tracking app data could potentially be exploited to place women under surveillance and single them out if they become pregnant and are later suspected of terminating their pregnancy."
