Parental Complaints Lead to ASA Action Two parents filed complaints to the Advertising Standards Authority (ASA), stating that the poster was inappropriate and too graphic for outdoor display, especially where children could see it. The ASA agreed with the complaints and ruled that the advert broke advertising standards. Disney argued the severed figure was a robot, emphasizing its non-human nature, but the ASA still found the imagery likely to cause distress. Disturbing Content in Family-Friendly Spaces The decision highlights the challenge of marketing violent sci-fi content in public spaces. Authorities often warn that outdoor ads should consider children’s exposure, especially when the imagery is graphic or menacing. Parents in Glasgow said the poster was too frightening for young viewers, pointing to the exposed spine and alien fangs as particularly disturbing features. What Disney Says Disney responded by noting that the figure was robotic and not a real human. The company claimed that the severed body effect made it clear that the imagery was fictional. Despite this, regulators maintained that the ad’s overall impact on children was unacceptable. Conclusion: The ASA’s ban serves as a reminder that advertising guidelines prioritize protecting children from violent imagery. Even when content is fictional, it must be suitable for all audiences where it is publicly displayed.

A Historic Performance in Spanish On Sunday, Bad Bunny made history as the first artist to perform a Super Bowl halftime show entirely in Spanish. For Puerto Ricans like me, the performance felt personal. Many of us have heard comments about our Spanish being hard to understand. Bad Bunny’s show reminded us that our language and culture matter on the biggest stages. Shared Beginnings I connect with Bad Bunny because, like him, I once worked in a supermarket, packing groceries and pushing carts under the Caribbean sun. Many Puerto Ricans share this experience, which shaped our understanding of hard work and community. It’s more than just a job. It’s about our humble beginnings, the neighborhoods we grew up in, and the resilience that comes from small-town life. Growing Up in Small Towns Bad Bunny, born Benito Martínez Ocasio, grew up in Vega Baja, a northern town in Puerto Rico. I grew up in San Lorenzo, in the southeast. His mother was a schoolteacher, his father a truck driver with no music connections. My mother worked in a factory, far removed from media or entertainment. Childhood for both of us felt distant from San Juan, even though the capital was just 45 minutes away. Trips to the city were special events, usually focused on visiting Plaza Las Américas, a massive shopping mall. Bad Bunny described it as a place where "you didn’t even know where you were standing." Language and Opportunity Like Bad Bunny, I learned English as an adult and still speak with a non-native accent. Many Puerto Ricans face the same challenge. According to the latest U.S. census data, only 22% of the island’s population feels confident speaking English "very well." Access to private lessons often depends on affordability. Life Under Strain Daily life in our towns moves slowly. Limited public transportation, few tourists, and a lack of major events shape our communities. We have endured political and economic struggles, including public debt crises and bankruptcy. These hardships affect electricity, schools, migration, and public services. In 2018, Bad Bunny referenced these issues in his song Ser Bichote: "Schools are closing while puntos open. So what do I do? Tell me, I’m asking you." The "puntos" are drug-selling spots our parents warned us about. Only Puerto Ricans truly understand the weight of that line, though everyone enjoys the music. Why It Resonates Bad Bunny’s Super Bowl show isn’t just entertainment. It’s a reflection of Puerto Rican identity, language, and shared struggles. Watching him on stage, I saw my own experiences mirrored in his journey.

Former UK Treasury minister and Labour MP Tulip Siddiq has received a second prison sentence from a Bangladeshi court, deepening a legal dispute that has drawn strong criticism from the Labour Party. The court sentenced Siddiq to four years in jail on corruption charges. This punishment adds to a previous two year sentence handed down late last year. Judges also sentenced her aunt, former Bangladesh prime minister Sheikh Hasina, along with two other family members, in separate corruption cases. The court tried all defendants in absentia. Each of them denied the accusations. Labour Party condemns legal process Labour leaders quickly rejected the ruling and questioned the fairness of the trial. A party spokesperson said Siddiq never received proper details of the charges and had no chance to defend herself. According to Labour, Siddiq’s legal team made repeated requests to Bangladeshi authorities for information. Officials did not respond. The party stressed that every accused person deserves the right to legal representation. Because of these failures, Labour said it cannot accept the judgment. Background of earlier conviction In December 2025, a Bangladeshi court convicted Siddiq in another corruption case. Judges ruled that she influenced her aunt to use special executive powers to secure land on the outskirts of Dhaka. That conviction resulted in a two year prison sentence. Siddiq strongly rejected the ruling and described the entire process as deeply flawed. She said she remains confused by the case and claims Bangladeshi authorities have never contacted her directly, despite making allegations for more than a year. Resignation from UK government role Questions about Siddiq’s links to Sheikh Hasina led to her resignation from the UK government in January 2025. She stepped down as a Treasury minister after scrutiny over her use of London properties linked to allies of her aunt. The prime minister’s ethics adviser, Sir Laurie Magnus, reviewed the matter. He found no evidence of wrongdoing but said Siddiq should have shown greater awareness of reputational risks. In her resignation letter, Siddiq said she acted transparently but chose to step aside to avoid distracting the government. Political turmoil in Bangladesh Bangladesh launched the cases against Hasina and her family after her removal from power. Hasina ruled the country for 15 years before mass protests forced her out in August 2024. She later fled to India. In a separate case last year, a court sentenced her to death over crimes against humanity linked to a violent crackdown on student demonstrations.

TikTok Account Posts Inappropriate Deepfake Content Authorities are investigating a TikTok account that shared inappropriate deepfake videos featuring staff from Grainville School. The account used the school’s badge and branding in five uploaded videos, some of which included staff members. The account has been removed from TikTok after reports were filed with both the platform and the States of Jersey Police. Grainville School has been contacted for comment, and officials are monitoring the situation closely. What Are Deepfakes? Deepfakes are videos, images, or audio clips created using artificial intelligence to appear real. These manipulated media clips can be misleading or harmful if shared publicly. Officials Urge Caution Deputy Rob Ward, the Education and Lifelong Learning Minister, advised people not to watch, share, or engage with the content. He stated that circulating fake accounts or media coverage may give these harmful materials more attention and encourage similar behavior. “Our priority is removing the content quickly, supporting the staff affected, and reinforcing safeguarding measures,” Ward said. Incident Appears Isolated At this stage, authorities believe the incident is isolated, but they continue to monitor all schools in Jersey. Ward emphasized the importance of protecting school communities from impersonation attempts or harmful media.
