It’s closer to Beijing than Washington – and residents of this Alaskan outpost are reeling from Trump’s policies

On the Bering Sea, Unalaska is the US’s most productive seafood port, employing thousands of workers. But Trump’s cuts, and his disastrous war with Iran, have caused chaos – and put Republican control of Congress at risk It was less than 17 hours until the start of Alaska’s lucrative Bering Sea crab season, and Oystein Lone was standing on a dock in the city of Unalaska, preparing to embark in rough conditions. The problem wasn’t the next day’s forecast of 60mph gusts, which would kick up white-capped swells and make crabbing, already one of the most dangerous jobs in the United States, even more hazardous. Nor was it the question of whether there’d be enough red king, tanner and snow crabs to go around – state regulators had, in fact, announced higher quotas for the season. Continue reading...

Manchester United miss chance to close on WSL top three in drab draw at Everton

A group of well-choreographed, fancy-dress-wearing school-age dancers fully embraced the Halloween spirit as they boogied to one of Michael Jackson’s greatest hits at half-time at Goodison Park.

For Manchester United, the only scary thing about this game was how few times they tested Courtney Brosnan in Everton’s goal across the first 75 minutes of the contest, as the visitors demonstrated a lack of creativity and ultimately missed the chance to narrow the gap to the sides in the European qualification spots.

Manchester United crisis deepens with Chelsea defeat and Martínez red card

Get ready for another week of agonising over the sorry state of Manchester United.

There were echoes of Erik ten Hag’s final game in charge as the walls closed in on Michael Carrick at Stamford Bridge. United missed a series of golden chances when the scores were level, just as they did when Ten Hag lost to West Ham a day before his sacking two years ago, and Chelsea made the most of the reprieve after initially delivering a performance so bad it had you worrying for the nascent Xabi Alonso project.
