I'm TL and you're tuned into Naked News! Isabella and Cecelia have your entertainment headlines coming up and Whitney St John is going Naked In The Street. But first, let's get to THE NEWS!
Canada is about to have a new Prime Minister! In light of Justin Trudeau's announced resignation earlier this year, his ruling Liberal party just voted for Mark Carney to take over the role! Carney's a prominent economist, who's led both the Bank of Canada AND the Bank of England. The date he'll take over as PM is TBD and its expected he'll announce a federal election soon thereafter.
In other news, a twenty-four-hour strike is wreaking havoc on air travel in Europe! Hundreds of flights have been canceled due to a sudden strike at all German airports. The strike was SO SUDDEN that would-be travelers weren't even able to get their checked baggage from the cancelled flights! Although it's set to just be a one-day walkout, if you're planning to head to Europe in the next couple of days, you might want to check with your airline!
And remember that one-and-a-half BILLION dollar crypto theft back in February? Well, the hackers, believed to be working for the North Korean government, are working around the clock, desperately trying to convert it into CASH! Authorities are ALSO working nonstop to block those efforts, and to get BACK as much of the stolen crypto as possible. But so far, about 300 million has been converted, and will probably never be recovered. A big issue is that North Korea just doesn't CARE about its reputation, and has a whole industry around hacking and money laundering!
That's your FIRST look at today's news. I'll be back in a few with more headlines so don't go away!
