A United Front Against the Union: Celtic Leaders Prepare Landmark Cardiff Declaration

Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland’s nationalist leaders will demand democratic routes to self-determination—but the three nations face very different constitutional paths

13 September 2026. The leaders of the governing nationalist parties in Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland are preparing to meet in Cardiff on Monday, 14 September, for an unprecedented summit that could mark a significant new stage in the debate over the future of the United Kingdom.

Scottish National Party leader John Swinney, Plaid Cymru leader Rhun ap Iorwerth and Sinn Féin vice-president Michelle O’Neill are expected to sign a memorandum of understanding asserting that their nations should have the right to determine their constitutional futures through democratic referendums.

Although all three are First Ministers, reports indicate that they will sign the declaration in their capacities as party leaders rather than as heads of their respective devolved governments. This is an important distinction: the memorandum will represent a coordinated political position, not a legally binding act capable of authorising referendums or dissolving the United Kingdom.

BRICS or Not to BRICS: The Price of Shaking Hands with Aggressor

The 18th BRICS Summit opened in New Delhi on 12 September 2026 under India’s official theme, “Building for Resilience, Innovation, Cooperation and Sustainability.” The expanded group represents nearly half of the world’s population and a substantial share of global economic activity. Its leaders speak of multilateralism, international cooperation and a stronger voice for the Global South.

Yet behind the ceremonial handshakes and carefully prepared declarations lies a fundamental contradiction: can an organisation credibly demand a fairer international order while embracing a leader whose government has launched a war of aggression against a sovereign neighbour?

Trump’s Call for a United Ireland Turns Dublin Visit into a Global Political Story

The US President’s unexpected intervention has reopened one of the most sensitive constitutional questions in British and Irish politics

From One School to an Educational Empire: IBAC Opens a New Generation of Supplementary Education Centres Worldwide

International Business Academy Consortium is creating an international network of educational centres in which entrepreneurship, science, art, language education, film, music, leadership and personal development are brought together within a unified system of long-term learning. This new model enables entrepreneurs to begin with one school and a single branch and then gradually build a fully fledged multidisciplinary educational centre.

Modern education is becoming increasingly less confined to the traditional boundaries of schools, colleges and universities. Parents and students now expect not only academic knowledge, but also practical skills that help people understand themselves, act confidently in a rapidly changing world, create projects, work in teams, make decisions and build their own futures.

 

Irina Marinova: Entrepreneurial Education Evolution in Ukraine

This year, MiniBoss Business School Ukraine, operating within the International Business Academy Consortium, celebrates its 26th anniversary — more than a quarter of a century dedicated to developing entrepreneurial thinking, leadership, creativity and practical business skills among children and young people. Despite war and uncertainty, Ukrainian children continue to study, create, experiment and prepare themselves to build the technologies and businesses of the future.

The anniversary is not simply a reason to look back. It marks the beginning of a new stage.

In the 2026–2027 academic season, the Ukrainian network is expanding its educational offer with new programmes across eight innovative schools, creating a broader ecosystem in which children can develop not only business competence, but also scientific, technological, creative, communication and leadership capabilities. And perhaps nowhere is this mission more meaningful today than in Ukraine.
