Who is Sanna Marin? 34-year-old Finnish lawmaker to become world’s youngest prime minister
A 34-year-old Finnish lawmaker is set to become the world's youngest prime minister. Transportation minister Sanna Marin will take charge of a coalition government after being selected by her Social Democratic Party to replace outgoing Antti Rinne, the BBC reported . Rinne quit as prime minister after one party in the coalition government said it had lost confidence in him due to the way he had handled a postal strike.

FNC’s Carlson: ‘Inflation Reduction Act May Be a Classic Example of Misinformation’
Wednesday, FNC host Tucker Carlson opened his broadcast with a scathing critique of the so-called Inflation Reduction Act. According to Carlson, the moniker “inflation reduction” was misinformation, which has been something the Biden administration has proclaimed to be a priority in combatting. Transcript as follows: CARLSON: People say the federal government seems big, maybe bigger than ever. Well, it actually is the largest employer in the world — the Federal government. Nothing else comes close — not Google, not Amazon, not the Communist Party of China — nothing. How many people work for the United States government? Let’s put it this way. There are more than a hundred countries around the world whose total populations (that is, every man, woman and child) are smaller than our Federal workforce — entire countries, many of them.

Scientists reveal two best places to survive nuclear apocalypse ‘when 5billion would die’
Almost two-thirds of the world's population would be wiped out by a nuclear war , new research has shown. Scientists say more than five billion people would die of hunger after a full-scale conflict. Vladimir Putin 's invasion of Ukraine has brought the threat of nuclear war and computer simulations have been created over what would happen in the event of nukes being used. Lead author Professor Lili Xia, of Rutgers University, New Jersey, said: "The data tell us one thing. We must prevent a nuclear war from ever happening." Models showed firestorms would release soot into the upper atmosphere that would block out the Sun resulting in global crop failure. Australia is one of the locations scientists predict would survive a nuclear war ( Image: Getty Images/iStockphoto) They shed fresh light on the exact impact if 'Mad Vlad' reaches for the button. Nine nations, including the UK, currently control more than 13,000 nuclear weapons.
