Sixteen organisations from the public and private sectors took part in the festival and we thank them for their support and contribution to spreading the festive spirit throughout Qatar,” said QTA Chairman Issa bin Mohammed Al Mohannadi. The festival built on the success of the Eid Al Fitr Festival, which saw more than 75,000 people from GCC countries visit Qatar. “QTA’s strategy includes positioning Qatar as a preferred family destination in the GCC via the facilitation of activities and events that appeal to all ages. This contributes to the larger aim of the strat- egy to further tourism as a key factor that contrib- utes to diversification of Qatar’s economy,” added Al Mohannadi. Several events will continue to be showcased after the festival. These include the ‘Haj – Journey through Art’ exhibition at the Museum of Islamic Art until the end of the year, and Confusionism exhibition by Mahmoud Obaidi, at Katara until November 9. Shooting practice, organised by the Qatar Shooting and Archery Association and international shows like the Smurfs, Made in the Ice Age, and Ben 10, will continue to run at City Centre, Landmark and The Gate malls until Saturday.

With this act, the Kremlin redrew the political map of Europe and upended the rules of the acknowledged international order. Despite the threat Russia’s revanchist policies pose to European stability and established international law, some European politicians, experts, and civic groups have expressed support for—or sympathy with—the Kremlin’s actions. These allies represent a diverse network of political influence reaching deep into Europe’s core. The Kremlin uses these Trojan horses to destabilize European politics so efficiently, that even Russia’s limited might could become a decisive factor in matters of European and international security.

Despite moving with the times, they are, however, no longer in the best position to sort out for themselves the many problems that confront them. Corruption, money laundering, match-fixing, misplaced government interven- tion, legal disputes of various sorts, and so on, can, indeed, only be dealt with effectively if authority is clearly defined and if the status and independence of football’s governing bodies is recognised by law and they are provided with the necessary means. The Independent European Sport Review initiated by the sports ministers of the EU’s five key member states in cooperation with UEFA and FIFA is an important step in this direction.

  • In a Spin: Why Seumas Milne Is the Wrong Spokesman for Jeremy Corbyn
    Academic rigour, journalistic flair Subscribe Fourth estate follies Trawling through the dustbins of the UK media In a spin: why Seumas Milne is the wrong spokesman for Jeremy Corbyn October 23, 2015 4.47am BST Author John Jewell Director of Undergraduate Studies, School of Journalism, Media and Cultural Studies, Cardiff University New era of straight talking for Labour. And that’s what worries the party’s MPs. UK Media Watch, CC BY-SA When it was announced that Seumas Milne, the Guardian columnist and associate editor, had been appointed as Labour’s executive director of communications and strategy, sections of the press were vitriolic in their condemnation. In the Sun, characteristically unembarrassed by any Andy Coulson associations, an unnamed Labour source said: Corbyn’s ‘straight talking, honest politics’ turns out to be apologising for genocide, wishing the Soviet Union hadn’t lost the Cold War and backing terrorists who planted roadside bombs to kill British soldiers. It is an appointment that is morally unacceptable. In the Daily Mail, meanwhile, Tom McTague wrote of the “fury” in the Parliamentary Labour Party and of the fact that Milne was a “journalist who has defended acts of terrorism and praised attacks on British troops”. In the Telegraph, former Labour MP Tom Harris was given space to write that with Milne’s appointment Corbyn had “stuck two fingers up” at Labour’s core electorate. Not only that, Milne was “contemptuous of traditional working-class attitudes”. Voters would, readers were told, “recoil at Milne’s view that the murder of Fusilier Lee Rigby ‘was not terrorism in the normal sense’”.
