CES Is Now One of the World’s Biggest Auto Shows as Ford to Uber Debut New Technology
With its glossy black finish, five-person cabin and six huge fan pods, the Bell Nexus looks like it belongs on the set of a science fiction film, rather than the South Hall of the Las Vegas Convention Center. But it's just one of the many unusual displays at this year's Consumer Electronics Show focused on the world of transportation rather than the TVs, smartphones and digital appliances traditionally found at CES.

He also insisted Prime Minister Theresa May must scramble drones and planes. And Parini, 56, added that France and Belgium must do more to share intelligence needed to infiltrate trafficking gangs behind the surge. In an exclusive interview, he said: “We became aware of the new phenomenon of crossings across the Channel two years ago via our own intelligence and signalled this to the UK … [Read more...] about ‘Smuggler hunter’ says UK ignored his alert on migrants in Channel two years ago and now faces tens of thousands arriving by boat each year
