John Healey’s complaint is that Starmer sat on this problem for months before making a derisory offer
John Healey’s resignation as defence secretary on Thursday was a long time brewing, though in the end the denouement was swift. It leaves an already weak Keir Starmer without a defence strategy less than a month before a Nato summit and an unresolved row about spending as Donald Trump threatens to restart the bombing of Iran.
On Monday, No 10 finally told Healey how much more money it was prepared to give the Ministry of Defence to fund major projects as part of the defence investment plan (Dip).

Durante años, Homer James Jigme Gere, más conocido como Homer Gere, tuvo un perfil más discreto y alejado del foco mediático. Nacido en el año 2000, fruto del matrimonio entre el actor Richard Gere y la actriz y modelo Carey Lowell, el joven prefirió centrarse en sus estudios de Psicología tras graduarse del instituto. Aunque ahora parece que, el primogénito del inolvidable protagonista de Pretty Woman, abraza el oficio familiar saltando a la interpretación, donde parece tener un futuro más que prometedor tras acaparar todas las miradas en Euphoria, cuya historia terminó recientemente.
Su propio padre, Richard Gere, no oculta el orgullo que le produce este debut, asegurando en una entrevista reciente con la revista People, que ya le puede "pasar el testigo" y retirarse de la interpretación. Según contó el veterano actor, Homer maneja de forma brillante la presión del apellido y posee un magnetismo natural: "Es realmente bueno. Sabe lo que hace de una manera casi sobrenatural".
El salto del mayor de los Gere a la industria televisiva se ha consolidado gracias a su participación en la tercera temporada de Euphoria en HBO. En este intenso y descarnada drama juvenil dirigido por Sam Levinson, el joven actor da vida a Dylan Reid, un famoso e influyente creador de contenido que se cruza en el camino de los protagonistas tras el salto temporal de la serie, e incluso compartiendo una escena picante con Sydney Sweeney.
Estar en pantalla junto a figuras de la talla de Sweeney o Zendaya ha sido la prueba definitiva para probar su valor como actor. Lejos de abrumarse, su interpretación le ha llevado a protagonizar multitud de titulares en los medios y a heredar de su padre el título de 'galán de Hollywood'. El propio Homer Gere ha revelado, en entrevistas recientes, que para preparar su papel en Euphoria el mejor consejero fue su progenitor, con quien conversa casi a diario para pulir los detalles de sus actuaciones.
Sin embargo, su paso por la industria del entretenimiento audiovisual no ha terminado. Homer Gere ya tiene sobre la mesa nuevos proyectos que tendrán su estreno más pronto que tarde en pantalla.
El primero de ellos será junto al director Ryan Murphy. Gere participará en The Shards la nueva serie que llegará el próximo 5 de agosto a Disney+. La producción es la adaptación de la novela homónima escrita por Bret Easton Ellis (American Psycho). The Shards, sigue a un grupo de ricos adolescentes de los 80 que residen en Los Ángeles, cuyas perfectas vidas se verán sacudidas por una serie de asesinatos a estudiantes de instituto que asola la ciudad.
En la serie, donde compartirá pantalla con Kaia Gerber, —hija de la ex-pareja de su padre, Cindy Crowdford— Homer interpreta a Robert Mallory, el extraño chico nuevo que llega a la vez que los crímenes cometidos por The Trawler. De esta forma, el intérprete cambiará totalmente de registro para sumergirse en una atmosfera llena de intrigas en este intenso thriller.
También veremos a Homer —según adelantó su padre a People— en el nuevo largometraje dirigido por Oliver Stone, cuyo rodaje acaba de finalizar. De este último proyecto aún no se saben más detalles aunque promete ser otro de sus grandes éxitos.
The breast cancer 'breakthrough' is a story of overtreatment, not a triumph of testing, says Dr Clare Craig. The truth is, the genetic test failed, but it's being rolled out anyway.

Key developments on June 11:

More than 900 Ukrainian children completed military training at a Volgograd camp, the resistance movement Yellow Ribbon reported on 11 June. The two-week shift drew teenagers from occupied Donetsk, Luhansk, Zaporizhzhia, and Kherson oblasts.
The session, Yellow Ribbon argued, is evidence of "systemic policy" rather than isolated cases. The documentary record supports that framing. Russia's Warrior Center is a creation of Vladimir Putin's 2022 decree. It ran 1,290 Ukrainian children through the same Avangard base in 2024 alone, a Kyiv Independent investigation found. Yale's Humanitarian Research Lab has separately mapped 210 facilities across Russia and occupied Ukraine that hold or militarize children.
The "Time of Young Heroes" session at the Avangard defense base ran for two weeks. Teenagers aged 14 to 17 trained in basic military preparation, drone operations, tactical medicine, and physical drills. The program also featured meetings with Russian war veterans and events built around loyalty to the Russian army, Yellow Ribbon said.
"The scale of such programs is striking. We are no longer talking about isolated cases, but about systemic policy." — Yellow Ribbon resistance movement, 11 June 2026
Avangard operates as a network of military-patriotic centers under Russia's Defense Ministry. The United Kingdom sanctioned the camp in November 2024 for deporting and indoctrinating Ukrainian children. At the same site, Ukrainian teenagers practice trench-digging, mine clearance, and weapons handling. The Kyiv Independent first documented that training pipeline in October. Ukrinform also reported the Yellow Ribbon findings the same day.
The 900 teenagers arrived at Volgograd from a re-education infrastructure built across the occupied territories. Schools in the occupied Donbas have made military training a mandatory subject from fifth grade onward. Occupation authorities enroll children as young as six in the Yunarmiya youth army for drills and pro-Kremlin lessons.
More than 19,000 Ukrainian children have been deported to Russia since 24 February 2022, Yale researchers estimate. Up to 1.6 million more remain under Russian occupation. Ukraine has returned just over 2,000 through its Bring Kids Back UA initiative.
In March 2026, Yale's lab tied Russian energy giants Gazprom and Rosneft to the camps. The two firms helped transfer at least 2,158 Ukrainian children across Russia, the report found.
Three months earlier, a Ukrainian rights lawyer told the US Senate of further escalation. Russia had sent teenagers to North Korea's Songdowon International Children's Camp—9,000 kilometers from home.
In March 2023, the International Criminal Court issued arrest warrants for Putin and Russian Children's Rights Commissioner Maria Lvova-Belova. Both face charges for the unlawful deportation of Ukrainian children. The court classified the practice as a war crime.

At the Trump-Xi summit in May 2026 in Beijing, China's President allegedly told his American counterpart that Vladimir Putin "might end up regretting" his invasion of Ukraine. This revelation is both encouraging and disheartening.
