Inditex’s Lefties opens its first UK store in Liverpool, featuring robotics to sort clothes and a new online-first proposition. The move, part of a broader UK expansion, targets a budget-conscious segment and faces competition from Primark, Shein and others. The retailer plans more UK outlets based on early performance.
A new, peer-unreviewed analysis reconstructs Conquest Man’s life and origins, suggesting a complex, cross-Channel heritage. The skeleton from Barton-upon-Humber indicates continental ancestry with Scandinavian links, dating from pre-conquest to post-conquest periods, and hints at long-standing connections across the North Sea. The study frames a more nuanced picture of 11th-century England.
