New Zealand Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern promised on Tuesday that the man responsible for last week's deadly mosque massacres would face "the full force of the law", as she vowed never to utter his name.

"He sought many things from his act of terror, but one was notoriety —&nbsp;that is why you will never hear me mention his name," Ardern said in an emotional address to a special meeting of parliament, which she opened with the Arabic greeting "as salaam aleikum" —&nbsp;'peace be upon you'.

If there is an actor who has been making films with the theme of nation-building, it's Akshay Kumar. The actor's past few blockbuster hits have all had nationalism as their theme which made many speculate if the actor was planning to join politics.&nbsp;

There were also rumours that the BJP was planning on making Akshay contest the 2019 Lok Sabha elections from Amritsar.&nbsp;

Quashing rumours about his debut in politics, Akshay said, "Politics is not on my agenda. I feel what I am doing through my films, I will never be able to do that through politics." The actor was speaking to the press while promoting his upcoming film 'Kesari'.&nbsp;

News brief: Big stories of the day

US President Donald Trump has said the media is "working overtime to blame me" for the New Zealand mosque attacks.&nbsp;

The attacks on the two mosques last Friday in Christchurch have left 50 people dead.&nbsp;

Brenton Tarrant, a 28-year-old Australian, had walked up to the first mosque and started shooting with automatic rifles. He then drove away, walked up to a second mosque and started shooting again.&nbsp;

The youngest of his victims was three years old.&nbsp;

In his 73-page manifesto released just before he live-streamed his attack, Tarrant wrote that he supported <a href="https://www.wionews.com/world/kellyanne-conways-husband-says-trump-suffers-from-narcissistic-personality-disorder-204200">Trump</a> "as a symbol of renewed white identity and common purpose" but not as a "policymaker and leader."&nbsp;

His manifesto meanwhile expressed extreme anti-immigrant and anti-Muslim views.&nbsp;

While Trump has condemned the attacks on the mosques, he has not condemned white nationalism.&nbsp;

"I don`t really think so. I think it`s a small group of people that have very, very serious problems," Trump said when he was asked whether he thought there had been a rise of white nationalism.&nbsp;

"The Fake News Media is working overtime to blame me for the horrible attack in New Zealand. They will have to work very hard to prove that one. So Ridiculous!" Trump tweeted on Monday.&nbsp;
