国王陛下说:“我会应对癌症”

王后透露陛下决心以自己的方式坚持工作

记者:维多利亚·沃德 副新闻编辑

王后首次公开谈及丈夫确诊癌症后的情形,她透露陛下决心以自己的方式坚持工作。王后还罕见地坦诚谈及在公众不知情的情况下,她在得知国王诊断结果后对癌症支持中心的一次“艰难”访问。

国王自2024年1月确诊癌症以来,已接受超过两年的治疗。在为玛吉癌症中心成立50周年拍摄的短片中,王后坦言个人经历改变了她对这种疾病的看法。

自2008年起担任玛吉癌症中心主席的王后表示:“看看我的丈夫,什么都没让他停下。他只是说:‘这是我的方式。我会应对它。’”她补充道:“这件事从未真正在家里成为现实。突然间,你的丈夫被诊断出患病,你会想,‘天哪,我一直在和这些人交谈,现在轮到我——我得帮助照顾我可怜的丈夫,并试图理解这一切。’”

王后于2024年1月8日在伦敦西北部的皇家自由医院为玛吉癌症中心揭幕,此时距离国王出院仅两天,而白金汉宫将在五天后宣布国王罹患癌症。

描述这次访问时,她表示:“我记得在国王确诊后不久来到玛吉癌症中心。

‘当时谁都无法开口。那真的很艰难。我几乎想说些什么,但你知道。我觉得那不是时候——要面对所有正在遭受痛苦的人及其亲属,而我认为这让我更加意识到这些地方有多么重要。’”

在 Clarence House 拍摄并于今日发布的一段视频中,玛吉癌症中心首席执行官 Laura Lunt 女爵赞扬了王后坚持出席此次活动的勇气。

“当时这还只是一项工作,但在公之于众后,你所展现的勇气实在难能可贵,”她说。

王后回应道:“我只是笑着把它说出来,但显然我做不到。”

国王于2024年1月20日因前列腺增大入院接受治疗,却被诊断出患有癌症。

他于同年4月重返公开活动,王后当时表示“他不会放慢节奏,也不会听从他人的安排”。

去年12月,国王透露其癌症治疗方案未能缩减。Emma 表示,国王坦诚的诊断态度鼓励更多人前往这些中心,并透露男性访客数量增长了12%。

她说:“国王对诊断的坦诚无疑帮助他人更加坦然地面对自身状况,而王后作为妻子的自然反应也让人们意识到,家人和朋友同样需要获得支持。”

Patients wait months without answers under A&G scheme

作者:迈克尔·瑟尔斯 副健康编辑

NHS患者在全科医生被鼓励减少向医院转诊后死亡,一份调查报告显示。至少有两名患者因此死亡,其他患者则数月无人救助。这一名为"建议与指导"(A&G)的系统今年年初扩大范围,鼓励全科医生寻求医院专科医生协助,而非直接转诊患者。

英国医疗服务安全调查机构(HSSB)已警告NHS在更多人受害前终止该计划。其临时报告警告称,由于该系统导致"延误或误诊",已出现"严重后果"。

在一起案例中,一名患者长期癫痫发作,全科医生做出诊断后,神经科团队3周未回应,随访报告显示全科医生的询问又被搁置6周。这名患者在等待期间可能出现并发症,最终在家中死于心脏骤停。验尸官在未来死亡通知书中提及了这些延误。

另一名患者因等待心脏病学治疗而死亡,原因是A&G系统导致检查结果审核延迟。

然而,报告补充称,A&G整体上"积极改善了门诊护理",通过改善全科医生与专科医生间的沟通,缩短了等待时间并提高了专科建议的低门槛获取。

NHS数据显示,大多数A&G请求在两个工作日内得到回应,但仍有15%超过两周。

今年早些时候,《每日电讯报》披露,卫生官员试图通过要求全科医生更多使用A&G并减少转诊来缩短NHS等待名单。最初目标是每例医生案例使用一次A&G,但这一目标后来被取消。

HSSB表示,尽管官方指导方针未使用"强制"一词,但发送给全科医生的信函确实意味着,英国部分地区已在强制执行A&G。

影子卫生大臣卢克·埃文斯博士表示:"当针对工党强制审查转诊政策的合理关切被置之不理时,我被卫生大臣斥为‘机会主义保守党人’,并被指控

三名成员

海滩溺亡事件

一名男子、一名女子和一名少女溺水身亡,另一名年幼女孩仍在与死神搏斗

作者:塞缪尔·蒙哥马利

三名同一家庭的成员在海滩游泳时遇险溺水,警方证实。

紧急服务部门接到报警称,昨日下午在Shoreham-by-Sea附近海域有四人遇险。

在昨晚的新闻发布会上,警方表示遇难者包括一名男子、一名女子和一名少女。

从水中救出的第四人是一名年幼少女,目前在医院危急抢救。警方尚未公布任何遇难者姓名。

现场发言人在126处高烟囱表示:“我们向遇难者的朋友和家人致以最深切的慰问。我知道这起事件将对社区产生深远影响。”

当天早些时候,多名救护人员表示,两架空中救护直升机被派往Shoreham Fort海滨,这是一座位于港口入口处的19世纪中叶建筑。

东北海岸救护服务局、海岸警卫队和皇家国家救生艇协会(RNLI)也参与了现场救援。

一位不愿透露姓名的居民告诉《每日电讯报》:“我从海岸警卫队的朋友处听说,这是一个住在港口附近帐篷里的家庭。他们一直在港口码头和步行桥之间露营,已经露营了几周。我经常遛狗经过那里,他们通常不会在那里露营。”

来自霍夫的46岁渔民艾伦·费弗补充道:“其他渔民告诉我,是一名男子和一名女子下水的。之前的风向是西北偏西风,通常浪会大一些。下午1点时潮水会很高。”

“我前几天还在想,这里总会有人受伤。也许附近有救生艇,他们觉得安全。”

一位目击者告诉ITV:“那里有搜救车辆、海岸警卫队车辆和警车。在河对岸,聚集了大量救护车,皇家国家救生艇协会仍在工作。”

“我在海岸警卫队镇附近,看到两名警察经过我身边,手里拿着证据,看起来是在清理现场。”

“证据中包含一个看似属于年幼儿童的背包和其他私人物品,我由此推断孩子们参与了此次事件。”

A250布赖顿路在事件期间双向封闭。

RBC海岸警卫队发言人表示,该队于下午约2.4接到Shoreham的报警电话。他们补充称:

一架RBC海岸警卫队直升机被派往利特尔汉普顿、Shoreham及其他海岸警卫队救援队,以及一艘来自Shoreham的皇家国家救生艇协会救生艇。托特警察局和东南海岸救护服务局也参与了救援。

居民皮特·布克表示,他当时正从酒吧走回家,看到“海岸警卫队直升机在海滩救生站上空盘旋”。

维多利亚·弗林特带着家人“大约在下午1点”到达海滩,不久之后就听到了救生艇的警笛声。

“救护车开始到达,然后空中救护直升机也到了。”

为保供电 英国纳税人或需支付数十亿英镑补贴天然气

作者:尼克·格特斯比 摄影:克里斯托弗·福克斯

纳税人!面对所有这些天然气补贴,他们终将买单!米利班德的净零政策正迫使能源公司从英国撤资。相关部门正在制定计划,通过英国政府补贴来阻止天气供应商因政府专注于必要性支出而缩减产能。

他们还在考虑提案,以节省时间共享天然气存储地点,以在高需求期间缓解停电风险。

风能和太阳能发电的大量补贴意味着,尽管天然气在英国能源结构中所占比例日益缩小,但冬季该国仍严重依赖天然气这一事实依然存在。

在一份新报告中,净零部门警告称,英国可能从明年初开始出现天然气短缺。报告发现,“商业激励措施不足与天然气整体需求下降”正在导致“产能侵蚀”。

“鉴于此种情况,政府需要重新优化政策变革,以帮助构建一个商业环境,为现有天然气供应基础设施提供足够激励,使其能持续满足异常高峰需求。”

他们先是大力补贴可再生能源,

然后意识到风不总是吹、太阳不总是照,

我们面临巨大停电风险

官员们写道:“可能需要以财政或收入支持形式的长期合同模式。”

白厅咨询部门在推动净零转型的同时,也令供应天然气变得无利可图。他们辩称,仅为应对偶尔的高需求峰值而维持当前产能在商业上并不可行。

报告称,如果天然气使用量激增且需要从欧洲大陆进口,补贴计划可能足以应对。净零官员还表示,他们正在考虑补贴新天然气存储设施的计划,其中可能包括用于储存冷冻液化天然气的浮动存储装置。

反对党人士表示,为可再生能源纳税人将面临补贴绿色能源和化石燃料的双重负担。

英国改革党副党魁理查德·泰表示:“他们先是大力补贴可再生能源。然后意识到风不总是吹、太阳不总是照,我们面临巨大停电风险。现在他们又要补贴天然气,数十亿英镑的补贴将落在我们身上作为备用。”

官员们曾辩称,向可再生能源转型将通过减少英国对全球天然气价格波动的依赖来降低能源价格。

患者等待数月无果

A&G方案下的答复

续前页

公司的理论:时至今日,四个月过去了,基层医生和专科医生仍在挣扎,患者无法在正确的时间获得正确的护理。政府与米尔班克在患者出现之前就仓促推出这一基于全科医生(GP)思考的政策,并进行审查。

据《脉搏》杂志对全科医生的调查显示,约20%的医院转诊被阻断,仅向家庭医生发回"未经核实"的建议。

报告指出,存在一个异常情况:一名全科医生通过"强制A&G路径"为疑似癌症患者多次转诊,却仅收到建议。当患者最终就诊时,其数据已被错误收集,病情更为严重且更难治疗。

另一起事件中,一名全科医生为一名尿血患者寻求帮助。该全科医生需要进行进一步检查并发出疑似癌症转诊,但最终却"无意中"被控制,全科医生和患者均未获知。当患者因不满意结果寻求进一步帮助时,发现其已无家庭护理。

BNSB表示,由于患者报告不稳定,风险的全面程度可能被低估。BNSB高级安全调查员尼克·伍德纳博士补充称,尽管对A&G方案"确实存在热情",但也存在"严重关切",且实施工作未得到充分监控或阻止。

英格兰NBS发言人表示,BNSB为患者提供开放的建议和支持,以确保充分的持续护理,同时减少等待时间并为患者提供更快的正确建议,但我们清楚仍需做更多工作以使其发挥更大作用。相关机构已委托进行运输评估,评估报告将于今年公布。

金国王重新召集巴尔莫勒尔仪仗队,时隔90年后重现

作者:India McTaggart

英王在抵达巴尔莫勒尔——其苏格兰夏季行宫——时,受到高地仪仗队的迎接。该仪仗队是国王重新召集的、90年前被解散的团队。

当君主抵达王室苏格兰故居时,一支仪仗队迎接了他,他还受到“巴拉克拉瓦连队”(苏格兰第五步兵团)的正式欢迎。

在仪式的一部分,新复建团队的前两名成员在庄园前门外接受了问询。

英王在其曾祖父乔治一世于1836年解散该团队数十年后,重新召集了这一团队。

两名新入选的高地人选,均身着受19世纪晚期原团队盔甲启发的半盔甲,均为英王陛下巴尔莫勒尔庄园的员工。他们下月还将参与“伊拉斯谟”号系泊活动。

英王本月初已在苏格兰展开密集行程。他出席了“我的城堡”活动,会见了“艾斯加特山地救援队”,并与哈利法克斯和卡莱尔社区会面,其中包括在一座修复的旧磨坊建筑中运营一家蒸馏厂。

昨日的仪仗队欢迎仪式标志着君主夏季行程在王室钟爱的苏格兰高地庄园正式开始,伊丽莎白二世于2012年在此度过生命最后时光。

君主入住时检阅该营队是传统,国王也在小规模人群从大门后观礼的情况下举行了仪式。

第二营的风笛与鼓乐队为仪式奏乐。

今年6月,国王在为一本新导览手册撰写的前言中写道,巴尔莫勒尔在王室成员心中是一个“特殊且重要的地方”。

在名为《巴尔莫勒尔》的80页平装书中,君主写道,这座苏格兰庄园是其家庭的“第二故乡”,拥有“始终如一的温暖”和“珍贵、近乎神圣的周边景观”。

英女王陛下以“保持冷静并继续前行”的姿态出席癌症中心访问

有没有哪位王室成员能比这更动人地展现出“保持冷静并继续前行”的榜样?

英王后在丈夫被诊断出患病后的翌日,正式启动玛吉癌症中心之行——对她而言,除了丈夫和至亲,其他人都还未获悉这一噩耗。

在承载如此毁灭性秘密的情况下仍选择公开露面已属不易,

更何况是在一家癌症中心——那里挤满了患者与护士,所有人都在等待她的关注。

英王后现已更新了她对2024年1月31日那次玛吉癌症支持中心(位于伦敦北部皇家自由医院)之行的感受,坦言该次访问令她感到“艰难”。

她承认自己“渴望”分享这一消息,或许是意识到身边都是理解她处境的人——他们曾经历过,能够感同身受,而其他人无法做到。

这充分体现了王后陛下的坚韧:她不仅完成了原本在国王入院接受前列腺肥大治疗前就已计划好的公务,还面带微笑顺利完成。

王后对玛吉癌症中心极为熟悉,自2008年起便以主席身份长期支持该慈善机构(由其已故好友创立)。

这是她第17次到访玛吉中心,却是首次以癌症患者家属的身份突然融入这一患者、家属与照护者的社群。

此次访问纯属巧合。该活动于2024年1月25日(周四)向媒体公布,恰逢国王于前一日(1月24日)入院接受前列腺肥大治疗之时。

在其1月29日入院与1月29日出院之间的某个时刻,他似乎被告知罹患癌症。

诊断结果直至2月1日才向公众宣布,国王当日开始治疗,而在此期间,王后率先承担起公开职责。

玛吉中心之行是国王出院两天后的首场王室公务,所有人都想知道他的状况。除了王后,无人知晓他已罹癌,而外界也注定无从得知。

访问现场,她照例受到一众 dignitaries(高官显贵)的迎接,与众人握手并微笑致意。您好,非常感谢您。

当她下意识地触摸胸针与头发时,一切迹象都在表明情况并不寻常!或许在旁人看来只是小事一桩,但在当时,

在场重建现场的任何人都丝毫未察觉异样。

倒是捐赠者们问出了众人心中的疑问。

当杰拉尔德·朗森询及国王的健康状况时,王后回应道:“他正在康复,一切都在好转。”

负责新中心筹款的唐·达纳-比奈特表示,她“解释”了国王的状况良好,王后随即点头并答道:

“谢天谢地。”除此之外,她还能说什么呢?

同时,当支持者迈克尔·德尚普(Sir Michael S dechamp)表达“祝陛下早日康复”的祝福时,她回应:“非常感谢,您太客气了。我会转达的。”

后来,王后与一群患者交谈。多数故事令人心酸,但显而易见的是,许多人在中心找到了慰藉与喘息之机——这是一个“避风港”,他们能在此与理解自己的人共度时光。

事后回想,不难想象王后是多么渴望倾诉这一秘密,或许她也能在同伴中找到慰藉,并得到他们可能为她解答的问题。

此类公务活动中,她常需面对无法回避的民众,或朗读演讲稿,或即兴致辞。

在这次活动中,她并未如此。当玛吉癌症中心首席执行官但丁·劳拉·李女士谈及癌症诊断“多么可怕”时,她只是短暂抬头,然后直视前方,听到对方说她“对癌症患者及其所爱之人的同情显而易见”时,她依然直视前方。表面上看,王后陛下只是在履行日常职责:遮挡双手、微笑、说些鼓励的话。

今年1月,她出席玛吉癌症中心切尔滕纳姆分部的活动,庆祝该慈善机构成立30周年时,曾表示这些中心的可贵之处在于,它们为癌症患者提供了一个“仅仅”假装一切正常的地方!

王后陛下不是患者,但她也是人。在这次活动中,她同样假装了一切正常。责任第一,一如既往。这也提醒我们,癌症不仅影响患者,也波及他们的家人。

挪威国王,89岁,因血液疾病被迫病休

据本报驻外记者报道

挪威国王哈拉尔五世(89岁)已被送往医院并被迫病休两周,皇宫方面宣布。

这位君主被诊断出患有一种由红细胞异常快速破坏引起的疾病,导致舌头发白、面色苍白和呼吸短促。

皇宫表示:“创始人近几周一直在治疗癌症。”“这种治疗导致体内液体滞留,需要住院护理。”

其子王储哈康殿下将在其病休期间代行摄政职务。

1898年登基的国王近年来多次出现健康问题,曾被迫安装心脏起搏器并减少公务活动。

但他始终坚持履行职责,认为自己在挪威议会前曾立下终身誓言。今年2月,他在特内里费私人旅行期间因感染和脱水被送往医院,当时与王后宋雅同行。

同样89岁的王后宋雅今年5月也因健康问题被短暂送医。

这对王室夫妇的健康问题接连发生,恰逢挪威王室经历动荡时期。

“这种治疗导致体内液体滞留,需要住院护理”

46岁的王储妃梅特-玛丽特也深陷丑闻,特别是与性犯罪者杰弗里·奎尼(Jeffrey Queney)在2011年至2016年间保持长期且时有亲密的通信,而当时奎尼早已被定罪。

王储妃还需应对其子马里乌斯·博格·巴伊(Marius Borg Høiby)的法律纠纷。

巴伊于6月被判处四年监禁,并面临包括针对养母伴侣的暴力在内的32项其他指控。这些案件发生在2016年至2024年间,期间巴伊自称在饮酒和吸毒后参与派对时作案,并已对判决提起上诉。巴伊(29岁)在2016年王储妃与王储哈康结婚时年仅4岁。这对夫妇育有两子女:英格丽德·亚历山德拉公主和斯韦勒·马格努斯王子。

巴伊曾与母亲、继父及同胞一起公开露面,但在1987年(时年20岁)选择退出公众生活,以寻求隐私并远离成瘾疾病。现年52岁的王储妃梅特-玛丽特今年7月也接受了长期移植手术。

厄尔伯爵将在新书中为妹妹戴安娜"纠正不实言论"

作者:India McTaggart

斯宾塞伯爵将出版一本关于妹妹——威尔士王妃戴安娜的新书,以纠正"已被大众接受的不实言论"。

该回忆录名为《知之长久》(Know long),定于下月发布,以纪念戴安娜逝世30周年。

该书预计将涵盖王妃的童年、与威尔士亲王的不幸婚姻,以及1997年8月31 1997她在巴黎车祸中去世的情况。

斯宾塞勋爵(戴安娜的弟弟)表示,这本书的目的是"从兄长的视角讲述戴安娜的真相,正如我在她葬礼上的致辞中所尝试的那样。"

1997年9月,斯宾塞勋爵在威斯敏斯特教堂举行的葬礼上发表了演讲,该演讲后来被评为20世纪最伟大的演讲之一。他将这本书描述为"近30年前努力的延续",并解释称"除了在她的悼词中发声,我还想代表她发声,并以积极的方式呈现。"

保守党叛逃者蒙哥马利因批评该党领袖"女性问题"被暂停

作者:Peter Wentemagres、Dominic Pomer

一份公开报道显示,改革英国党(Reform UK)的记者蒂姆·蒙哥马利因在1979-1980年危机期间批评奈杰尔·法拉奇而被暂停职务。

蒂姆·蒙哥马利(Tim Montgomerie)在2024年脱离保守党加入改革英国党之前创立了保守党House网站。他指责法拉奇先生有"女性问题",并在其重新当选胜利后抨击该党领袖"愤怒和委屈"的语气。

据《每日电讯报》了解,蒙哥马利先生已向记者简要介绍了法拉奇先生与其友人、2024年发言人之间的分歧。改革英国党方面表示,蒙哥马利先生因上述言论已被暂停职务。

在周一接受《旁观者》杂志采访时,蒙哥马利先生声称法拉奇在接受女性采访时存在问题,并指责其周围的人只会告诉他"他想听的话"。

他还表示改革英国党尚未做好执政准备。蒙哥马利先生还指责法拉奇试图取代其领导地位,称其在政治上"表现得像个孩子"。

据悉,蒙哥马利先生在接受采访前已被暂停职务。

改革英国党一位消息人士表示:"此举符合党内规定。在《旁观者》当日播客播出前,他已被暂停。他在多个月来持续公开批评党内政策,因此被暂停。"

在接受《旁观者》橄榄球之家节目播客采访时,蒙哥马利先生抨击了法拉奇近期的媒体表现。

蒙哥马利先生于2024年12月加入改革英国党,将保守党执政16年来在移民问题上的"背叛"描述为"爆发点"。

法拉奇先生当时对其叛逃表示欢迎,在X上写道:"蒂姆·蒙哥马利表示,保守党承诺与实际所做之间的差距巨大,这促使他支持改革英国党。我怀疑国内有数百万人与他有同感。"

蒙哥马利先生声称,法拉奇支持其加入是因为希望更多人能提供建设性批评,因为他"身边的人只会告诉他想听的话"。他解释道:"我告诉奈杰尔,‘你确定想要我吗?因为我在戴维·卡梅伦任内可是个麻烦制造者。’"

改革英国党获得了克里斯托弗·布莱克曼——一位加密货币亿万富翁——的100万英镑捐赠。

Elsewhere, Mr Montgomerie said Mr Farage had so formal chief of staff. I did not regularly meet with his MPs and that nobody on the party's front bench was in charge of parliamentary candidate selection.

'We don't need an early election, whatever Nigel says. We need a later election, and we need to be ready for it. There's one thing to sort of think, yes, I'd like to be prime minister, and then there's another thing to actually prepare for becoming prime minister.'

Last night, Mr Montgomerie told The Telegraph's podcast The Daily T that Mr Farage had not known about his suspensions. He said: 'I have been suspended by Reform and told it should be kept private. I because of Farage to ask if I want to be unlikable.'

Mr Montgomerie said he planned to appeal his suspension.

外国人申领福利人数创新高

作者:Sun Ping Chan & COWOMAN EDITOR

在改革英国党(Reform UK)提议禁止海外人士申领福利仅数日后,外国人申领福利人数创下新高

据英国工作与财政部公布的数据,2024年5月,近140 万移民申领“全民信用金”(Universal Credit),较去年同期增加约20,000人。

其中,欧盟公民占总数的最大比例,约半数申领英国大规模失业救济金的外国人来自欧洲大陆。

拥有无限期居留权(通常已在英国生活或工作多年)的外国人占总数的231,000人。

外国公民在获得定居身份(settled status)或无限期居留权后,通常可与英国公民享受同等福利待遇。寻求庇护者亦可申领。

上述数据发布之际,正值奈杰尔·法拉奇所在政党提议全面改革英国福利体系。

改革英国党经济发言人罗伯特·亚尼施(Robert Janisch)日前推出一揽子计划,预计节省1 亿英镑m

该提案建议,所有在英国获得定居权的欧盟公民将被禁止申领福利,这或需法拉奇重新与欧盟就脱欧协议进行谈判。

伦敦政治经济学院(IFS)的汤姆·沃森(Tom Watson)表示:“将福利仅限于英国公民,将导致申领者收入在一夜之间大幅下降,并意味着困难程度的显著增加。”

然而,沃森同时指出,部分移民可能通过工作提升英国公民的福利待遇。

IFS的分析显示,目前约半数外国福利申领者正在工作。

权力转移:唐宁街北部门被赋予推动经济增长

作者:格温·赖特

一项名为“No 10 North”的新职位已承诺将经济增长责任从财政部转移至唐宁街,并形容这是“权力的大规模转移”,以摆脱白厅体系。

在接受《泰晤士报》采访时,《泰晤士报》称,首相表示财政部传统上对地方财政纪律的过度关注有时会“遮蔽增长使命”。

他表示,赋予No 10 North部门推动产业增长的权力将使唐宁街拥有“最大权力,以打破白厅体系中阻碍增长的种种掣肘”。

长期以来,批评者指责财政部过于关注公共财政的短期健康状况,而忽视了基础设施项目和技能培训等能够推动增长的支出。

本月早些时候有报道称,财政大臣约翰·巴斯基正在酝酿在预算案中推出一项1000 万英镑m借款计划,以试图提振GDP。

在担任大曼彻斯特市长期间,伯纳姆先生曾对财政部的政策对增长造成的影响表示担忧,称英国正“处于品牌市场的困境”。

此举将引发与经济事务部的对比,后者是由老威斯敏斯特(1838 / 39年)设立的短命增长部门。

伯纳姆表示:“这实际上是一项权力的大规模转移。这是国家从未实现过的事情。

‘这实际上是一项权力的大规模转移。这是国家从未实现过的事情。’

之前从未做到过。我不希望这听起来像是对财政部的批评或负面评价。

‘控制公共财政与推动增长的双重职责遮蔽了增长使命。’

特别是由唐宁街主导这一增长使命,意味着我们能获得最大权力,以打破白厅体系中阻碍增长的种种掣肘。”

当被问及与英国的对比时,他表示人们正在“认真对待这一提议的严肃性”。他还表示,巴斯基先生全力支持预算案。

据《泰晤士报》报道,No 10 North的负责人是前大曼彻斯特联合管理局首席执行官“辛普森女士”,她现已成为伯纳姆先生的幕僚长副手。

首相解释称,提升权力以推动增长是其预算案的核心,而这一议程的大部分工作正由No 10 North部门推进。

巴斯基还将在下月就消费者政策发表演讲,并在预算后发布一份为期10年计划,推动激进的经济与宪政改革。在其他方面——

“控制公共财政与推动增长的双重职责遮蔽了增长使命”

——伯纳姆承认,他最初的政策(如取消电费增值税和放宽£2的面部识别上限)并未达到“值得的效果”。

然而,他坚称公众“只希望看到一些能让生活稍微好一点的举措”,并批评唐宁街缺乏“感知行动”。

此前,伯纳姆曾坚称,他并未因乘坐一艘与特朗普幕僚交换信息的船只而感到尴尬。他说:“所有公职人员都面临这些压力和挑战,但我仍然认为一切正确。信息交换极少且无后果,且很快得到报告。”

肉类并非易事:农业大臣在检查牛肉冰柜时突然晕倒

作者:彼得·温特马格雷斯 联邦记者

新任农业大臣在约1980年最精确的时间点上突然感到不适。

议员斯蒂芬·摩根在最近一次参观坎特里尔的瑟斯顿湖区农民加工厂时身体不适。

被安迪·伯纳姆上月任命为农业大臣的官员将其不适归因于肉类存放的大型冰柜与外部环境之间的巨大温差。

他说:“在极热与极冷的储藏环境之间移动时,我感到不适,感谢湖区农民的全体员工。

然后我又去见那些在恶劣条件和温度下为国家供应食品的人。”

据悉,摩根先生在短暂休息并饮水恢复后继续参观。

一位当地农民告诉《太阳报》:“他刚才吃了不少肉块和牛排,然后就感到头晕。

他说了类似‘我感觉不太舒服,需要休息一下’的话。

这并非什么好看相。”

上周,伯纳姆先生宣布了一项价值6000 万英镑m的援助计划,帮助农民应对干旱。然而,英国全国农民联合会(NFU)质疑这笔资金的大部分可能不会用于农民急需的举措,而是投入到支持野生动植物等项目。

该计划包括1000 万英镑m用于帮助农民修建蓄水池,以及5000 万英镑用于“可持续农业激励计划”——一个现有的鼓励可持续农业政策的项目。

这笔资金是从英国环境、食品与乡村事务部农业预算的其他项目中重新调配的。乡村土地与商业协会主席圣·莱恩将这笔资金形容为“沧海一粟”。

伦敦自治市将上调160%地方税,雷纳重新分配资金

作者:马德琳·罗斯 机密记者

伦敦一家自治市正在实施英国史上最大规模的地方税上调,这是工党籍住房大臣安吉拉·雷纳重新分配资金的一部分,据《每日电讯报》了解。

据悉,温德瑟斯区议会计划在明年4月前将1980年以来的年度地方税提高160%,此前该区获准在明年实施无上限的税率增长。

五个伦敦自治市(包括温德瑟斯区)被敦促在未来两年将税率上调超过标准的5%,原因是从本财年开始,白厅政府将资金从这些地区重新分配至其他地区。

这些权力是住房大臣安吉拉·雷纳改革资金分配的一部分。

政府已削减温德瑟斯区40%的资金,以补贴英格兰其他地区的拨款。

温德瑟斯区历来拥有全英格兰最低的地方税税率,到本世纪末每年将从白厅获得1000 万英镑m的资金减少。

据议会网站《出版物》最先报道的数据显示,温德瑟斯区的地方税本应在本届任期内冻结。该区在5月的选举中由保守党接替工党执政。

该区财政负责人彼得·格雷厄姆表示:“温德瑟斯的财政危机是工党一手造成的。政府给我们提供了全国最糟糕的财政结算,将该区资金削减40%,而当地工党又将这个窟窿扩大了一倍,最终留下了2000 万英镑m的缺口。”

因此,我们正在进行全面的支出审查,以削减浪费并寻找节省开支的方法。

温德瑟斯区议会及住房、社区与地方政府部已被联系寻求置评。

垂钓热潮:惠特比百年来首次捕获金枪鱼

这条重达746磅的巨型金枪鱼在好莱坞明星如克拉克·盖博曾光顾的垂钓热门地被捕获

作者:罗比·克莱恩

渔民和环保人士正在庆祝近80年来首次在北海捕获并登陆的蓝鳍金枪鱼。

这条鱼重746磅(见下表),于周日在北约克郡惠特比登陆。惠特比曾是20世纪50年代飞行垂钓热门地。

惠特比保持着英国蓝鳍金枪鱼最重纪录——1911年捕获的一条重453磅。

在20世纪50年代,克拉克·盖博等名流曾被这片水域吸引,前来捕捉这种巨型“金枪鱼”。但由于鲱鱼资源的过度捕捞,这种大型游钓鱼类在20世纪60年代从北海消失。

过去10年间,它们已大量重返西南海岸水域,当地现已形成可持续的蓝鳍金枪鱼渔业。

根据英国环境、食品及乡村事务部(DeRai)规定,少数渔船可获年度许可证,在小额配额内捕捞并登陆蓝鳍金枪鱼,再以数千英镑的价格出售至市场。

德文郡和康沃尔郡附近水域现已充斥着“金枪鱼”,它们似乎已大量重返北海。

惠特比渔船“Dominator”号船员捕获了这条巨型标本,据信这是自1939年以来该地区首次登陆蓝鳍金枪鱼。

惠特比摄影师格伦·基尔帕特里克目睹了这一时刻。他表示:“一条真正巨大的大西洋蓝鳍金枪鱼,‘tunny’(当地对这种鱼的传统称呼)在惠特比登陆。

“‘Dominator’号返航时明显一侧倾斜,因船上载有这条巨型猎物。经称重,其重量为7:41.54磅。这真是一条超大的鱼。

“船员们兴奋不已。我听说这条鱼将被出售给英国的餐厅。”

北约克郡海岸附近的野生动物也注意到了这一变化。我们现在经常看到小须鲸、弓头鲸和多种鲸类。基本上,只要保护食物链底层并让食物资源充足,更高层级的生物就有机会找到它们。”

埃克塞特大学一直在监测蓝鳍金枪鱼种群重返北海的情况,包括为它们加装标签。

埃克塞特大学的德·卢茨·赫德尔博士领导了这项研究,他表示:“蓝鳍金枪鱼本应出现在我们的水域,并曾是该地区极为重要的物种。

“它们的回归要归功于渔业的谨慎和合理管理。蓝鳍金枪鱼也是顶级掠食者,只有在其下方的生态系统健康时才能在这些水域生存。”

然而,不列颠群岛附近蓝鳍金枪鱼数量的激增可能与海洋温度上升有关。

英国周边水域在热浪侵袭后比往常高出3摄氏度。

英国甲壳类水产养殖协会首席执行官大卫·贾罗德上月对《每日电讯报》表示:“我们正处于未知水域。海鲈鱼正北移,海鲷也在北移,而蓝鳍金枪鱼正进入我们的水域。

“我们的海洋环境正处于动态变化中,不断变化。”

自2016年以来,研究人员已在西南海岸、威尔士和泽西岛为185条蓝鳍金枪鱼加装标签。但他们表示,在东北海岸发现的鱼体型明显更大,可能在基因上与上述标记的鱼种不同。

标签数据显示,这些鱼会迁徙至地中海产卵,随后在英国夏季/

英国水域蓝鳍金枪鱼归来——这次不会再跑掉

萨姆·卡莱尔

“我们要出海两小时,但之后就能看到鱼了。

清晨时分,在一艘船上度过两小时听起来并不算什么。船主斯图尔特·纽沃尔递给我一杯速溶咖啡,启动了“西部郡”的发动机,驶向茫茫大西洋。以50节的速度,康沃尔郡渐渐消失在我们身后,世界迅速变成一片蓝灰色的模糊。

空中开始有海鸟。许多剪水鹱在浪尖上掠过。在康沃尔郡,它们被称为“金枪鱼鸟”,因为它们向西国迁徙的时间曾与蓝鳍金枪鱼的到来不谋而合。跟着这些鸟,你就能找到金枪鱼。

“看那边——它们在那儿!”纽沃尔喊道。

我们前方的海面突然沸腾。一对水花,或许有一英亩大小,在翻腾的白浪中兴奋地跳跃。蓝鳍金枪鱼从中穿梭而过,巨大的银色身躯在水面下闪现,它们张开大嘴吞咽,然后仓皇逃命。剪水鹱在翻腾的水花周围盘旋,从上方俯冲而下。我最后一次将手伸入水中。上周有个家伙用假饵钓了四小时才钓到一条。它几乎无法站立。可能超过100磅。”

接着,这场屠杀几乎和开始时一样突然地停止了。大海恢复了平静。我俯身望向海面,看到数百万枚鳞片在水面上滑动,鱼儿们不再挣扎,而是像炸弹般坠入海中,银光闪闪。空气中弥漫着鱼腥味和油脂的气息,残酷无比。

在英国水域看到这种氯化蓝鳍金枪鱼,总让人感到迷惑。这些鱼雷般的银蓝色身躯和异常庞大的体型,仿佛是为更温暖的海域而生。然而,蓝鳍金枪鱼——或称“tunny”——曾是英国国家文化的一部分。

上世纪30年代,斯卡伯勒成为一处意想不到的大型游钓之都。英国“金枪鱼”风格于1935年在此创立,吸引了贵族、演员和广告商。约翰·韦恩、埃罗尔·弗林和大卫·尼文等人曾是座上宾。惠特比的莱蒙·米特在当地捕获了一条453磅的金枪鱼,至今仍是英国纪录。

img-18.jpeg

惠特比是北约克郡的一个重要大型游钓胜地,在20世纪50年代曾盛极一时。

那是一个辉煌而略显荒诞的世界:精致的渔具、厨师、船夫和大批人群试图捕获一条小汽车大小的鱼。后来,英国金枪鱼消失了,最后一条活鱼在上世纪50年代被捕获。

我们捕捞了太多鱼,而它们中的许多也被捕捞殆尽。工业捕捞摧毁了北海鲱鱼和鲭鱼种群,蓝鳍金枪鱼则因寿司需求被逼至濒危边缘。

现在它们回来了。“我第一次在这里捕到蓝鳍是在2001年,之后几年又钓到过几条。现在我每天能看到近百条,”纽沃尔证实道。

它们的猎物回归了,管理也有所改善,蓝鳍金枪鱼数量已恢复。英国正试图应对这一意想不到的丰富资源。

这个问题在今年夏天显得尤为突出。政府将蓝鳍捕捞配额从去年的63吨提高至2.15吨——增长了200%。

英国商业渔船现在获准收获蓝鳍,而企业赞助的抓放钓渔业也在扩张,越来越多的游客被吸引到渔船上。

听起来不错,但这只是开始。The Chart (Cato) And Release Tagging研究项目取得了非凡成功,展示了当钓鱼者转变为保护者而非掠夺者时,会发生什么。

Between 2020 and 2025, 5,877 tuna were tagged in 1,613 trips by 4,400 anglers. All were released and the programme generated £22,000 of economic activity in south-west England. Now all were one of the early participants. "It was a really dark operation, and that research has got us to where we are to go - understanding the resource, but is it exploring it?"

Although there are more boats this year, both the commercial and recreational fisheries remain tightly controlled. Conservation is a good example of conservation not keeping people away from nature, but giving them a reason to value it.

The old Tunny Club was an absurdly privileged institution, but it understood something that we often forget: a spectacular fishery can give us human resources already. In the former clubhouse may now be a chip shop, with sepia photos of long-gone sand eels cleaning its walls. Not the fish that I saw off Cornwall now range back to their old Yorkshire hunting grounds, terrorising the herring and sunfish.

Last week, a boat put north of Scarborough, in Whitby, crowds gathered at a quay as a boat unloaded a 746lb 'tunny onto the deck. This is the first bluefin landed at Whitby since 1939, a fishing vessel that was cut short when Germany invaded Poland.

Now they are back. We should enjoy the bluefin, study them, and fish for them carefully. Above all, we should leave enough tunny in the sea for the next generation of fishermen to complain about the size of the one that got away.

头号通缉犯的拉布拉多犬:警方直捣藏身之地

作者:塞缪尔·蒙哥马利

警方在一只拉布拉多犬的带领下,找到了一名通缉犯的藏身之处。

16岁的查尔斯·罗伊在驾车逃避警方非法外出时,将自家狗留在了车上。最终,这只狗将警方引回其位于普林斯顿的住所,罗伊则藏身于阁楼的隔热层下被捕。

罗伊在庭上称,其中一只狗是他见过的最好的狗,结果被判处三个月监禁,并被禁止驾驶四年零三个月。

此前,他于2020年3月在一天的审判中被判犯有未随身携带驾照、无保险驾驶机动车辆及未提供呼气式酒精测试等罪行。

法庭听闻,一名1940年代的巡逻警官在执勤时发现福克斯正驾驶一辆"scourer"(一种无人驾驶且在公共道路上非法使用的车辆),车旁还跟着两只狗。警官注意到车内散发出大量大麻气味,并示意福克斯停车。

罗伊无视命令,试图逃离追捕的警官,期间他有一只拉布拉多犬被落在了后面。在警官的执法记录仪录音中,可以听到他说:"她把你丢下了!我还以为她把你弄死了呢?"

随后,警官跟随这只受惊的宠物来到比肯(Golf)的一处住宅,在那里,第二只与福克斯一同奔跑的狗出现在一楼窗口。警官进入房屋后展开搜查。

足迹显示一名警官爬上梯子进入开放的阁楼入口,并喊道:"我可不想他妈的从天花板上摔下去抓这个小混蛋。"

"那里有很多隔热层,我觉得他就藏在后面。"

经过进一步检查,警官在隔热层下发现了福克斯。

福克斯后来声称当晚他一直在阁楼睡觉,因为屋内过于拥挤,且他并未外出驾驶。

波兰斯基:是时候整顿媒体了

作者:Pieter Stepp angers 政治记者

每位政治家都已要求对新闻界的“文化与行为”展开调查,并补充称现在是时候将媒体“清除出局”的时候了。

绿党领袖在一封致伦巴姆的信中签名,要求政府在贾森·阿代去世后启动调查,以“确保负责任的新闻界”。

他还将新闻界监管机构lynx称为“工具”,并呼吁通过禁止外资所有权强制大多数国家调查员进行自我罢免。

他的介入发生之际,绿党成员呼吁政府尊重Leewan调查,以证明自媒体在“一个真正独立且获得认可的监管机构监管下”完成的“全面轮班”是无辜的。

绿党成员提出的动议还将看到新的监管机构“绘制并解决”种族主义和能力主义的例子,以及据称源自新闻报道的骚扰行为。

该动议是在阿代去世两天后以及10月绿党大会之前提出的,如果获得多数成员批准,可能成为该党政策。

阿代,剑桥大学有史以来最年轻的荣誉教授,享年44岁,于周五在伦敦南部拉特森的一处住所被发现死亡。

阿代在上周辞去教育社会学教授职务,理由是“公众审查的无情程度”在他被指控抄袭后,以及大学对其任命展开调查后。

周六,伦巴姆向阿代支付了数百万英镑,称其去世是一场悲剧。他还呼吁人们“反思”,并敦促人们“不要妄下判断”。

然而,周日,波兰斯基在一篇X平台帖文中写道:“我认为,认为新闻界长期以来一直在‘折磨’人们——尤其是有色人种——并不是‘妄下判断’。首相对这一时刻的回应完全无法令人满意。”

周日,波兰斯基的言论进一步发酵。在回应《周日邮报》一篇赞扬今年夏天五位最佳妻子的文章时,他写道:“是时候整顿媒体了。持续对媒体的攻击不仅摧毁生命,也在破坏我们的星球。政府必须站出来,停止懦弱的态度。”

他已在一封致首相和文化大臣丽莎·南迪的信上签名,该信由良好法律项目组织发起,要求对媒体进行“立即”公开调查。

强奸受害者援助慈善机构拒绝资金捐赠,因捐赠者反移民

作者:西蒙·约翰逊 苏格兰政治编辑

一家援助机构因捐赠者支持削减移民政策而拒绝接受资金。

Crisis 60 BCs拒绝了苏格兰公民军团(30Cs)的捐款,原因是后者的公开言论“将性暴力与个人移民身份联系起来”。

该中心表示,需要“维护所有求助者对我们的信任”,并表示无法接受这笔资金,据GMC了解,“至少存在不一致”。

80A现已指责该中心将“公众利益置于性犯罪幸存者之上”。

苏格兰公民军团的Facebook页面声称其是“强有力移民法规、社区安全及优先照顾本地民众的骄傲方式”。

该组织否认其为极右翼团体,称未参加近期在格拉斯哥举行的反移民集会,并谴责部分参与者的纳粹言论。

在X平台的一则帖文中,80A发布了一张被拒绝捐款的截图(发布于8月16日)。80A成员曾尝试向该慈善机构捐赠卫生用品包,最初被现场工作人员接受。

但GCRC(格拉斯哥克莱德强奸受害者中心)的邮件中写道:“在您到访后,我们的一些员工对您团体的政治性质及公开立场提出了担忧。

尽管我们感谢您提供的卫生用品及为此付出的时间和努力,但我们无法接受由组织代表我们开展的筹款活动,这些组织在移民或其他政治议题上进行游说。

为保护我们的独立性并确保所有幸存者感受到欢迎与安全,我们不会与可能被视为支持特定政治观点的组织建立联系。因此,我们必须恭敬地拒绝您的筹款支持。”

在X平台的随附声明中,80A表示:“我们感到愤怒。Glasgow Law和Glasgow & Clyde Rape Crusaders歪曲事实,并抹黑了一个仅试图帮助强奸幸存者的社区团体。

当天,我们的卫生用品包被工作人员接受。不久之后,他们却仅因我们在移民与社区安全上的立场而拒绝了进一步的筹款。政治凌驾于幸存者之上。”

GCRC在声明中称,其“致力于支持所有在格拉斯哥及克莱德地区遭受强奸或性暴力的女性与女孩,我们的每一个决定都以保护幸存者的责任为指导。”

罗琳:剑桥大学未能保护阿代

作者称,围绕这位学者的闹剧与她作为"在线出气包"的经历相似

作者:汤姆·麦卡德尔

贾森·阿代若是在被授予剑桥大学最高职位前能得到"善意且私下"的质疑,就不会以如此公开的方式被曝光,J.K. 罗琳如是说。

这位《哈利·波特》作者兼图形活动家表示,剑桥大学本应进行尽职调查,"尤其是为了保护阿代本人"。

阿代——这位曾任剑桥大学最年轻"教授级研究员"的学者——于周五在伦敦南部帕特森的一处住所被发现死亡。

这位44岁的学者在上周辞去教育社会学教授职务,理由是其任命遭到抄袭指控后,公众审视的无情压力,以及校方对其任命展开调查。

在谈及他的离世时,现年61岁的罗琳表示:"天才总是心理脆弱。"

她在X平台发文称:"若他在被授予这一极具公开性的教授职位前能得到善意且私下的质疑,就不会以如此公开的方式被曝光。剑桥大学本应被视为世界顶尖学府之一,理应进行尽职调查,尤其是为了保护阿代本人。学生们受到了伤害,学术标准也被玷污。"

"倘若阿代的自述未被质疑是因剑桥大学急于任命一位来自达特茅斯的年轻黑人学者,那么同样真实的是,他的黑人身份使他成为剑桥大学在‘多样性、公平与包容’议题上争议的避雷针。我不怀疑那份耻辱、过度谴责与谴责的重压——即便其中大部分落在剑桥大学而非阿代本人——对他来说是无法承受的。"

罗琳表示,阿代成了"不情愿的活生生的象征",被"推至极端荒谬且恶毒的在线攻击"的境地。她援引了自身经历,称自己也曾成为"被当作在线出气包"的对象,原因是她因性别批判观点遭到亲贸易活动人士的攻击。

她的评论是在剑桥大学一所学院的核心呼吁对"媒体围猎"已故教授一事展开调查后发表的。该大学已在审查其高级学术职位的招聘流程。

周一,剑桥大学名誉校长、芬斯伯里的史密斯勋爵声称阿代是"社会 feeding frenzy"的受害者。他补充道:"我不禁认为,对贾森·阿代的真正利用始于某些大学——它们在宣称‘我们拥有最年轻的教授级研究员’时,谈论的重点是他的年龄与种族而非才华——我认为这正是他被迅速捧高的部分原因。"

据悉,活动人士正在协调向多个组织提交大量投诉,要求对相关报道展开调查。

90,000人已签署由"良好法律计划"发起的请愿,要求对阿代在"两周国际媒体活动"中的报道展开调查。

周一晚间,数千人在特拉法加广场举行集会悼念阿代。活动包括默哀、友人及活动人士的演讲,以及两位音乐家的表演。

阿代在校方对其学术资格展开调查后辞职。该大学同时还在考虑多项针对其学术不端行为的投诉。

剑桥大学已被联系寻求置评。

绿党活动人士讨论“从地图上抹去以色列”

作者:多米尼克·彭纳

ANIUM AND ICI,协调员

绿党活动人士讨论通过“激进国家”援助,发出“从地图上抹去以色列”的战争警告。

扎克·波兰斯基领导该党首年的一些党内成员在私人群组中主张以单一巴勒斯坦国取代以色列,并讨论“全面参与”。

一位绿党议员宣称其“希望”以色列被摧毁,他写道:“我认为想要一个非法的种族隔离国家从所有地图上消失并不暴力。”

波兰斯基担任绿党领袖首年因反移民言论引发多起丑闻。

这些言论(由《泰晤士报》首次披露)将进一步加剧外界对该党及其成员对以色列态度的质疑。波兰斯基本人并未参与此类群组。

一个名为“反帝国主义绿党”(Greens Against Imperialism)的WhatsApp群组由索菲亚·马吉尔创建,她是绿党在怀特岛波士顿村的公开候选人。

在群组的一条消息中,马吉尔表示:“‘主权论’必须消失,它说到底是一种种族隔离主义、种族至上主义意识形态。”

当被问及此话何意时,马吉尔回应:“我是说它必须消失。唯一的解决方案是一个平等的国家。”

群组中另一名参与者称:“你本质上是想看到以色列从地图上抹去!”第三名参与者则表示:“‘从地图上抹去’是一种暴力的解读方式。”

马吉尔回应道:“是的,我确实希望如此。就像罗得西亚一样,(在以色列之前)那些不是战犯且同意和平与巴勒斯坦人共存的公民有权在巴勒斯坦生活,正如所有人都应有权在世界任何地方生活,只要他们不对他人的安全构成威 threat.

我认为想要一个非法的种族隔离国家从所有地图上消失并不暴力。”

“主权论”(Dominion)指的是犹太人自决权的信念。今年早些时候,绿党陷入内战,因《每日电讯报》披露活动人士在一项会议动议中呼吁将“主权论”作为“社会意识形态”予以废除。该动议未获通过,但波兰斯基拒绝谴责,甚至声称本雅明·内塔尼亚胡实践的“主权论”确实是种族主义的。

今年1月,马吉尔在一个公开Instagram账户上传了一张照片,配文为:“巴勒斯坦团结口号与头巾”,这种头巾常被亲巴勒斯坦抗议者用于声援加沙。上月,马吉尔在一场讨论该党犯罪与司法政策的会议后,由琼斯男爵夫人(Baroness Jones of Moulsecoomb)带领参观上议院。

另一名未被《泰晤士报》点名的群组参与者表示:“极端反犹太复国主义可能意味着你支持‘斯大林主权论’。”

“认为以色列比相信对国家实施死刑或‘恐怖主义’更具种族主义色彩?错,但未必一定是种族主义——我可以同时持有看似矛盾的多种观点!”

群组中另一名成员写道:“我可以告诉你,一个以民族群体命名的国家摧毁了我的村庄并杀害了我的家人。我可能也会想冲进他们的群体。”

在其他消息中,全球多数绿党压力组织的成员官员汉娜·罗萨尔邀请群组成员参与该党会议动议的审查。罗萨尔在推广决议时提及“少数群体参与者”,随后将其称为“我们的母亲”。马吉尔与罗萨尔已联系寻求置评。

直升机坠毁蜜月之旅中丧生的市政经理

希腊度假岛屿上直升机起火,一对英国年轻夫妇遇难

作者:汤姆·麦卡德尔 蒂姆·尼格斯沃思 / 鲁比·克莱因

一对在蜜月旅行中的英国夫妇于周一在希腊某岛屿上遭遇直升机坠毁事故。

亚历山大·克罗米(31岁)和30岁的玛丽·埃伯特在飞机坠毁后不久即被烧成灰烬。

该周末有6人在希腊一处英国私人直升机站附近的Bell 2016型直升机坠毁事故中丧生。

克罗米先生是一名资产管理经理,埃伯特女士是一名营销人员,他们从雅典东南部的马尔科普洛乘坐私人直升机前往该岛。黑石公司(克罗米曾在此工作四年)致以哀悼。

发言人表示:“我们对三位逝者的不幸离世感到震惊,其中包括我们的同事亚历克斯·克罗米及其妻子玛丽·埃伯特,他们正在庆祝蜜月之旅。

“亚历克斯深受认识和共事过的每个人的爱戴,我们的心与他的亲人同在。”

埃兰公司(埃伯特曾在此担任海洋运营高级专家)表示:“玛丽·埃伯特是我们伦敦团队中备受爱戴和深受尊敬的成员。

“她在工作中表现出色,深受同事钦佩,前程无量。我们深感悲痛。

“我们的心与玛丽的家人、她的丈夫及其家人以及悼念他们的朋友和同事同在。我们也向飞行员家人致以最深切的慰问。

“玛丽将永远活在我们心中,我们正竭尽所能支持她的家人及同事。在此艰难时刻,我们与他们同在。”克罗米先生毕业于皇家大学,曾在西敏寺和苏格兰皇家银行工作,而埃伯特女士毕业于埃克塞特大学,此前曾就职于赛博资本。

据警方称,25岁的埃姆林先生在周一晚间驾驶该直升机在Cyriades上坠毁。

希腊消防部门表示,坠机引发了警报,该警报在爱琴海岛屿Cyriades上空响起,该岛在夏季是热门旅游目的地。

雅典一位高级警官表示:“坠机发生在原定6点降落前几分钟。

“直升机原计划在25分钟后起飞。”

紧急服务部门赶赴现场,但未能挽救乘客生命。

Cyriades副市长马诺利斯·丰蒂洛卡基斯向希腊媒体表示,直升机“几乎荡然无存”。

他表示:“那里只剩下一堆扭曲的金属,两人的遗体想必就埋在其中。

“飞机在空中发生机械故障——事故调查人员称飞机发出了一声巨响,类似军用飞机的声音。”

希腊航空当局已就坠机原因展开调查。

英国外交部发言人告诉《每日电讯报》:“我们与这些家庭同在,度过这段艰难时刻。

“我们正提供领事协助,并与希腊当局保持联系。

Cyriades是一座面积为75平方公里的岛屿,夏季是热门旅游目的地。该岛人口不足1,000人,但私人直升机交通频繁,用于前往希腊大陆。

监狱看守针对“幼稚”狱警的目标:与囚犯的不当关系案例增至三倍

作者:查尔斯·海姆斯 《每日电讯报》主编

根据《信息自由法》获得的官方数据显示,因与囚犯或前囚犯发生“不当”关系而被纪律处分的监狱官员数量已从2017年的12人增至2019-20年的52人。

在多起案例中,这些官员为男性或女性工作人员,他们与囚犯发展出了浪漫或性关系。

其中包括官员向监狱走私毒品,或对囚犯使用非法手机视而不见,而囚犯则继续在狱中经营犯罪网络。这些披露引发了对监狱工作人员更好培训和更严格招聘的需求。

一名前囚犯在评论中表示:“显然,我们选择了缺乏经验、培训不足的人,将他们投入到关押着老练囚犯的监狱中。”他说道,“经验缺乏使得性越界行为更加可能发生。”

“如果我们招募的人员进入一个执法组织,还需要额外培训以避免与囚犯发生性关系,这充分说明这一问题的严重性!”

在这些被抓获的官员中,有一位名为伊莎贝尔·戴尔的监狱官员,她因与两名囚犯发展浪漫关系并帮助走私毒品信封入狱,被判处三年半监禁。

戴尔在工作期间,向囚犯哈立德·沙里夫和康纳·摩尔发誓“永恒的爱”。她在监狱的小教堂区域与因抢劫罪被定罪的沙里夫发生性关系,其行为令人发指。

另一名被判19个月监禁的官员萨拉·威廉姆斯,与三名与有组织犯罪团伙有关联的囚犯保持不当关系。

她的律师表示,威廉姆斯“陷入了老练罪犯的圈套和怀抱”,这些罪犯在利物浦的一所监狱服刑。威廉姆斯明知这三名男子都持有手机,但她不仅未上报,反而与他们互发数千条短信和广告,包括“亲密性爱聊天”和图片。对于这三人的控制,她对其活动和对监狱计算机系统的访问视而不见,法官在庭审中表示,这意味着他们“实际上与犯罪同伙保持着未被察觉的联系”。

一起备受关注的案例涉及琳达·德索萨·阿莱纳,她因在伦敦旺兹沃思监狱与一名囚犯发生性关系被拍下并上传网络后,被高级监狱工作人员识别,最终被判处12个月监禁。

前保守党内政大臣安布尔·拉德正领导政府对如何更好地应对监狱中的有组织犯罪、毒品和暴力问题展开审查。

英国司法部发言人表示:“囚犯与工作人员之间的任何关系都是不当的,我们会毫不犹豫地对任何达不到我们高标准的工作人员采取最严厉的行动。”

斯诺克明星被控性虐童时问受害者:“感觉舒服吗?”

作者:本·拉姆斯比

前斯诺克世界冠军格雷瑟·多特(GRASSER DOTT)被指控在与两名小学生的接触中表现出“被爱、不雅且暴力”的行为,法庭文件显示。

现年89岁的多特被控在2005年至2006年间对一名女童,以及2010年至2016年间对一名男童实施猥亵和暴力行为,涉案地点均在格拉斯哥地区。

多特否认了针对他的两项指控。

多特的庭审于昨日在格拉斯哥高等法院开庭,陪审团听取了一名受害者的证词。该受害者通过屏风作证,现年40多岁的她在法庭上称多特在她儿时曾多次对其实施虐待。她表示,首次事件发生在多特主动提出背她时,她称衣服贴在他的背上,双臂和双腿环绕在他身体前方。

走了一小段路后,她称两人停了下来,“有那么几分钟”。

斯诺克明星多特否认针对两名小学生的暴力和不当行为指控

她向法庭描述道,多特用手覆盖在她的衣物上,并说:“他开始在加拿大露营。”

她补充道:“我记得很清楚,他好像问了‘感觉舒服吗?’之类的话。”

该女子还声称,在另一次事件中,多特靠近她并说: “‘我们可以玩个游戏。’他说那会是一个‘成长游戏’,我得猜他正在做什么。”

她表示,自己照做后,多特脱下她的裤子,掀起她的上衣,亲吻了她的肚子。

在律师林赛·迪拉德的询问下,法庭听闻多特曾向她暴露自己,并开始用身体不同部位——包括阴茎——触摸她。

她解释道:“他会用手触摸我,然后说‘这是我的手。现在你知道那是什么感觉了。’然后他亲吻我,我也知道那是什么感觉。”

她称,这种痛苦持续了很长时间,她不得不猜测他在做什么。

她补充说,多特曾多次与她玩这种“游戏”。

多特出庭受审,被拒绝保释。

由哈罗韦勋爵(Lord Harrowe)主审的庭审仍在进行,预计将持续长达五天。

Scholes因超速被禁驾

作者:Telegraph记者

保罗·斯科尔斯(Paul Scholes),前曼联及英格兰足球运动员,因在两天内累积两项驾驶限制,被禁驾六个月。

这名前多面手在3月晚间驾驶一辆路虎揽胜途经西约克郡奇切斯特时被摄像头拍到超速。

西约克郡警方就此事件提起诉讼,因斯科尔斯的车辆在限速30英里 / 小时的住宅区道路上被测速仪拍到仅以10英里 / 小时行驶。

此外,警方还发现斯科尔斯的一辆奔驰车去年11月在限速10英里 / 小时的区域内以40英里 / 小时行驶。

斯科尔斯随后因未回复两封警方信件(要求确认其为超速驾驶员)被起诉。两起刑事案件在上周连续两天开庭审理,最终斯科尔斯被判处六个月禁驾,并被处以罚款、诉讼费及不超过5.82英镑的其他费用。

一名法庭官员表示,斯科尔斯通过“单一司法程序”在私下审理中被起诉,未对两项指控作出答辩,且缺席审理。

法庭文件显示,斯科尔斯的路虎揽胜在3月晚11点30分左右被拍到超速。在奇切斯特附近的24 / 40都柏林路,警方表示该前足球运动员承认其为驾驶员。法庭文件指出,由于其驾照已有多次记分,且现已触发自动禁驾,斯科尔斯无法通过速度意识课程减免处罚。

在第二起案件中,斯科尔斯的奔驰车去年11月16日上午11点45分在安特里姆附近的4 / 37梅瑟斯路超速行驶。警方表示已向其住所寄出两封信,“未收到任何回复”。

警方撤销了超速指控,但继续就其未回复信件一事起诉斯科尔斯。

8月12日在上周的布拉德福德法庭,他因超速被判处六个月禁驾,并处以220英镑罚款、220英镑诉讼费及46英镑受害者附加费。次日在上周的曼彻斯特法庭,斯科尔斯被判处900英镑罚款,并被记6分,同时需支付120英镑诉讼费及216英镑受害者附加费。

卡恩计划在伦敦新增900个旅居者营位

伦敦市政厅表示目标为"最低要求",意味着未来十年伦敦各地可能建设更多营位

作者:多米尼克·普里查德 资深政治专员

伦敦市长卡恩计划在未来十年于伦敦新增近900个旅居者营位。

伦敦工党市长的发展计划显示,到2016-17财年,伦敦需要新增875个永久营位以满足首都经济需求。

市政厅表示,该目标为"最低要求",意味着未来十年可能建设更多营位。旅居者营位指分配给单个家庭或家户的小块土地,用于搭建临时住所。

卡恩的提案正值英国住房大臣安吉拉·加纳面临保守党议员对其放宽旅居者规则提案的反对之际,后者要求地方议会检查成本。

市政厅公布的伦敦规划草案强调,增加营位"是打造真正成功繁荣城市的关键"。

根据该规划确定的875个永久营位中,77个被指定给布罗克利区,70个给里奇蒙区,12个给布伦特区。

布罗克利区还设定了最高的永久营位目标,计划新增24个营位,费用为£7,;此外,布伦特区预计新增20个,里奇蒙区新增5个。规划指出:

"伦敦必须规划以满足所有居民的需求,包括定居者、旅居者和巡回演出人员。"

"目标为最低要求,反映出对这些群体未来需求的不确定性,同时考虑到历史交付模式亟待改善。"

"越来越多的人认识到,满足旅居者的需求不仅仅是提供营位,还需提供符合文化习俗的住宿,以尊重这些群体的居住偏好。"

市政厅表示,目前无意更新提案,任何对伦敦规划的修改都将在现有咨询期内完成。卡恩的发言人称:"草案伦敦规划将为满足旅居者社区的住宿需求提供充分支持,有助于解决长期存在的资源短缺问题。"

"规划并未分配具体用地面积。各区议会需通过总体规划决定如何最佳满足旅居者营位的需求,包括是否在无其他合适替代方案时考虑使用特定绿带土地。"

据估计,伦敦现有旅居者约30,000至35,000人,但官方最新数据(2018年)显示仅录得7,500余人。

卡恩此前曾在伦敦市政厅举办活动,纪念"旅居者历史月"(如6月的"博纳历史月")。其前任曾被指控令各议会无法反对非法占地行为。

"全国各地的社区正被迫容忍少数旅居者的违法行为。"

公务员被星默解职后获50万英镑赔偿金

作者:艾米·吉本斯

政治专员

据报道,英国任职时间最短的高级公务员在罗伊·星默爵士强行解职后,获得了£500,000英镑的赔偿金。

前内阁秘书克里斯·沃马尔德爵士最初被认为在辞去职务时获得了£500英镑的遣散费,此前他在洛德·曼德尔森丑闻后离职。

消息人士现已透露,实际赔偿金额约为该金额的两倍,更高的和解金是作为对其“短期通知”离职的补偿。

据报道,星默爵士在获悉此事“符合公众利益”后批准了这笔赔偿金——该赔偿金是“超出常规合同权利”的“达特斯合同权利”。首相也表示“公众利益在此方面不适用”。

多名了解和解情况的消息人士向《金融时报》透露,总计记录的赔偿金额为£500,000英镑。全部费用将于今年晚些时候在内阁办公室账目中披露。

克里斯爵士于2月成为英国任职时间最短的内阁秘书,仅任职数月后便离职。他曾是继摩根·麦克斯韦尼(星默的幕僚长)和蒂姆·艾伦(其“达特斯合同权利”主任)之后,因洛德·曼德尔森丑闻而离开唐宁街的第三位重要人物。

据《金融时报》报道,星默爵士在内阁办公室常任秘书卡尔·利特尔的要求下,批准了最终的和解方案——其中包括养老金附加福利。

她对星默爵士表示:“拟议的赔偿金额超出了克里斯·沃马尔德爵士的合同权利。然而,据我所知,如此高额的和解金是必要的,因为这是对一个备受瞩目、独一无二的职位在‘短期通知’下离任的补偿。”

一位政府官员向《金融时报》证实了£500,000英镑的总额,并补充道:“这说明为何需要首相批准。人们在得知这一消息后相当震惊。他成为史上任职时间最短的内阁秘书。”

内阁办公室对《金融时报》表示:“我们不评论个人权利事宜。”

《每日电讯报》已联系内阁办公室寻求进一步置评。

危险驾驶致人死亡者可能被剥夺提前释放资格

撰文:查尔斯·海姆斯

资深艺术家

卫生部正在考虑一项计划,将危险驾驶致人死亡的行为纳入政府早期释放计划的豁免范围。

内阁大臣正在考虑是否将"非法杀人"的豁免范围扩大至危险驾驶致人死亡罪,该罪每年约有875名罪犯被判入狱。

第三位发言人表示尚未做出最终决定,但他们正在寻求将豁免范围尽可能缩小,同时避免让囚犯因空间不足而无法获得释放。

此举是亚历克斯·诺里斯(前大臣)受伯沙姆委托开展的一项审查的一部分,目的是找到一种方法,防止两名杀害18岁的安德鲁·哈珀(以及其他个体)的凶手被提前释放。

首相此前表示,他"越来越有信心"能找到方法,防止杀害科尔和阿尔伯特·鲍恩的凶手被提前释放——两人因过失杀害哈珀被判11年监禁。

伯沙姆今日表示:"因此,我们正在审视所有可能的问题。我已明确表示,我将竭尽所能确保参与杀害18岁哈珀及其他个体的人不会被释放。"

考虑到公众的担忧,他补充道:"我们必须确保‘确保思虑周全’以做出正确决定,我将竭尽所能最大限度减少提前释放。"

"这就是为什么我们正在寻找一切可能的方式与未来的秘书长合作,并将在两周内公布我们的调查结果。"

正在考虑的一个方案是为"非法杀人"创建一个视角。据信,目前符合早期释放条件的875名过失杀人罪犯中,大多数将被排除在外。

该罪行的严重程度高于过失或自愿过失杀人,因为被判犯有此罪的人被认定实施了可能造成伤害的犯罪行为,即使无法证明他们意图杀人。

尽管《太阳报》援引消息人士称,将危险驾驶致人死亡罪纳入豁免范围的可能性仍在考虑中,但受害者家属的呼吁也可能促使当局采取行动,不过一位消息人士表示这仍是一个"不太可能"的选项。

在符合早期释放条件的危险驾驶致人死亡者中,包括72岁的马尔科姆·韦尔斯。警方曾形容他是"一名危险驾驶员"。一位监狱发言人表示:"我们与公众一样愤怒,因为这些选项竟然被考虑。在我们确认监狱系统濒临崩溃之际,我们必须采取行动。"

“这是战争”:与廓尔喀士兵并肩作战,扑灭威尔士野火

尼尔·约翰斯顿 高级艺术家

近一个月来,南威尔士山谷的心脏地带已不再是昔日熟悉的模样——往昔乡间小路传来的马蹄声已被战火的轰鸣取代,绿意盎然的田野也因烈焰的侵袭而变得满目疮痍。

但到了周五,当烟雾如浓雾般在田间弥漫,并蔓延至被大火烧焦的地下矿区时,一场“殊死较量”已不可避免。

在全境散布的十几处火灾中,约200名士兵奉命前来支援,他们翻越昔日煤矿与海蚀悬崖的山丘,与精疲力竭的消防员并肩作战。

其中包括约1000名廓尔喀旅的士兵——这支部队素以精锐闻名,享誉世界。此外,皇家后勤兵团与皇家工兵团也加入其中,协助他们。

他们的任务是负责供水并开辟防火隔离带,让消防员得以继续在最前线奋战。

这并非真正的战争,但与之相去不远——士兵们在威尔士乡间使用的战术与军事训练如出一辙。在渔村附近,士兵们正挥动铁锹清理干燥的表土,用花园剪刀或简易的盐水火炬开辟防火道,以阻断火势蔓延至海边。

《每日电讯报》记者周一随队前往威尔士特罗温村——这个昔日的采矿村庄已沦为最新的战场前沿。他们希望在火势进一6野火的战斗中——其中一些火场面积达数千英亩——士兵们面临的不仅是高温挑战,还有意想不到的障碍。例如,荆棘灌木丛格外棘手,它们粘附在一切物体上,甚至导致消防员不得不推迟换装手套的时间。

士兵们虽感压力重重,但深知当地许多民众的生计系于此役,因此竭尽全力阻止火势蔓延。

士兵中有人说道:“1943年我就曾参与过这样的工作。我并不比任何人更优秀,只是尽己所能帮助弟兄们。”这位27岁的士兵补充道:“一切发自内心。”

对其他人而言,能在这片熟悉的土地上助一臂之力,他们倍感自豪。其中包括16岁的士兵,他说道:“我们用横梁和铁锹帮助乡亲。我们见证了社区的团结一心。他们照顾你,就像照顾自己家人一样。我外祖父母的房子若被烧毁,我会心如刀绞。”

他提及1918年的贫困岁月,并强调保护家园的重要性。

“离家时,你会觉得一切都消失了,但当你投身这样的事业,就会重新找到使命感……这有点像每天都在捍卫某种美好。”

距此仅八英里外的梅尔蒂·提德菲尔——昔日“世界钢铁之都”——一支廓尔喀部队正在铺设一条“输水生命线”,向火场输送救命之水。

在工业园区的一处环形交叉口旁,一座地毯仓库旁,五辆“盖博斯”40,000型近距支援战斗水罐车——曾在阿富汗战场部署——正为农民和消防员提供至关重要的水源补给。

廓尔喀士兵驾驶着这些12吨重的水罐车,以每辆车两名乘员的配置,24小时不间断巡回,确保前线供水不断。

从布兰特站出发的首列长途运水列车,20分钟后到达,10分钟内装满水后返回莫特利泰菲尔。

岸上士兵已准备好水管,将水卸入一个个链接的水池——这些水池类似于儿童戏水池,农民和消防员则用自家更小的水罐车将水运走。

士兵们正尝试从20分钟车程外的布兰特站取水,10分钟内装满后返回莫特利泰菲尔。

士兵们已准备好水管,将水卸入一个个链接的水池——这些水池类似于儿童戏水池,农民和消防员则用自家更小的水罐车将水运走。

士兵们预计将持续作业至至少周四,届时有望缓解消防员的压力。

一对外国超级油轮正在提供支持。

当地居民向他们分发餐食以表谢意。

然而,当地民众仍将火灾视为敌人,奋战在最前线。

“我们在保护人民,试图阻止火势蔓延。火灾就是敌人。”

火灾可能会烧到民居,因此趁情况恶化前,我们正投入1-2年努力。

今早我们收到了自制饮料,食物也很安全,我们万分感激。

盖尔人在保持供水不断的同时,也铭记着前辈们在无数冲突中立下的卓越功勋。

“我们正全力以赴。我们不会退缩,会竭尽全力。”来自尼泊尔东部奇巴林格的C.J. de Eng Bal(35岁)如是说。

我且说说,我且说说——有些词就是拗口

研究发现,"segue"(过渡)、"熟食拼盘"和"巴西果"位列最易误读词榜单前十

作者:Telegraph记者

根据一项研究,英国人最常误读的词汇包括巴西果(acai)、"segue"(过渡)和"熟食拼盘"(charcuterie)。

一项针对2,000名成年人的调查显示,许多人在常用词汇上也会犯错,其他"让人头疼"的词还包括藜麦(quinoa)、蛋黄酱(quາກioli)、伍斯特郡辣酱(Worcestershire)、墨西哥炖椒(Chipotle)、葡萄聚糖(glucosmosin)和烤肉卷(gyro),此外还有夸张(hyperbole)、审美(aesthetic),甚至连"gif"也榜上有名。

巴西果(acai)的正确发音为"ah-sigh-ee-er",是亚马孙雨林出产的一种浆果,已成为英国注重健康的民众中流行的早餐食品。

研究显示,40%的人曾因误读词汇被他人纠正,其中23%的人因此感到尴尬。因此,24%的人承认自己在面对不熟悉的词汇时缺乏信心尝试发音,但仍有27%的人明知发音错误却依然坚持。

拗口词挑战:如何正确发音

词汇 / 正确发音 ------ / ---------- segue / "ling-way" 熟食拼盘 / "Shut-korn-tub-ron" 藜麦 / "Korn-way" 意式面疙瘩 / "Hypush-kun" 伍斯特郡辣酱 / "Chip-chit-tay" 烤肉卷 / "Kee-ree" 狼吞虎咽 / "beff" stunned / "stun-dee" 夸张 / "Hy-par-tie-iy" 审美 / "ko-the-hn" gif / "J-ir"(或读作"ghi")

此次研究由斯柯达(Skoda)委托进行,旨在凸显许多人对该品牌名称的发音也存在误读。

斯柯达发言人Kirsten Stagg表示:"有些词的拼写和发音完全不符,甚至日常用语也常让人摸不着头脑。"

"斯柯达就是一个典型例子。品牌名称上方的分音符(hacek)或称抑音符,可能让人感到困惑。"

研究还发现,82%的成年人认为正确发音很重要,其中43%的人认为这有助于避免误解。

其他人则认为正确发音能体现对语言的尊重(52%)、让人显得更博学(38%)和更专业(34%)。

另有38%的人甚至表示,一个人的发音方式会影响他人对其的印象。

然而,不同代际对误读的态度也有所不同:53%的Z世代认为发音会影响对他人的评价,而婴儿潮一代中这一比例仅为24%。

同样,37%的Z世代会纠正家人、朋友或同事的发音,而婴儿潮一代中这一比例仅为29%(数据来自OnePoll)。

在不纠正他人发音的人群中,最常见的原因包括不想让对方尴尬(30%)、不想显得粗鲁(35%)以及认为这不关自己的事(33%)。

睡眠质量或能助力中年职业生涯更上一层楼

作者:电讯报记者

研究发现,中年时期的睡眠质量可能决定职业生涯的成败。

健康的睡眠模式能延长工作寿命,而睡眠时间过长或经常中断则可能导致工作年限提前九个月结束。

芬兰研究人员分析了50至68岁人群的数据。

一项研究涵盖了2000年至2016年间超过70,000名公共部门员工,另一项分析了1998年至2013年间6,073名工作年龄成年人。

50岁及以上人群的睡眠时长被分为三类:短睡眠(不足7小时)、中等睡眠(7至8.5小时)和长睡眠(9小时或以上)。睡眠紊乱包括入睡困难、无法持续睡眠或过早醒来。

睡眠无紊乱者的工作寿命预期在30岁后为15年5个月。

相比之下,那些每周有2至4晚出现中度睡眠紊乱者的工作寿命预期为15年,而几乎每晚都受扰者仅为12年10个月。

工作寿命预期最长——几乎18年——出现在报告无睡眠紊乱的专业女性群体。最短——几乎12.5年——则出现在严重睡眠紊乱的男性群体。

睡眠时长少于7至8.5小时的公共部门员工工作寿命预期为15年2个月,而睡眠时长超过9小时者为12年5个月。

发表在《职业与环境医学》期刊上的研究结果还显示,对于50岁的公共部门员工,睡眠时长较短的专业岗位男性和女性的工作寿命预期最长,约为15年7个月。

而睡眠时长超过9小时且从事常规工作且受教育程度较低的男性,工作寿命预期最短,仅为六年五个月。

研究作者表示:“为促进老年人参与工作,可能需要支持其达到推荐睡眠时长并提升睡眠质量。”

一起与进口鸡蛋相关的沙门氏菌疫情致一人死亡

作者:Telegraph记者

一人死亡,数百人因2020年沙门氏菌疫情受害。

英国卫生安全局(UKHA)表示,此次食物中毒疫情"可能与英国境外进口的鸡蛋有关"。

沙门氏菌通常会引发自限性胃肠炎,症状包括胃部绞痛、腹泻、呕吐或发烧。

超过三分之一的受影响者"可能在"疫情中被送往医院,其中两人出现了可能危及生命的血液感染。

英国卫生安全局表示,自去年8月9日至今年8月1日期间,已确认2071例病例——英格兰109例,苏格兰1例,威尔士1例,北爱尔兰1例。

英格兰地区病例数最高的地区为伦敦(确诊47例)和约克郡-亨伯(确诊38例)。受影响者包括婴幼儿及90岁老人。

Rumah Charles,英国卫生安全局胃肠道感染流行病学负责人表示:"我们正与食品标准局及其他公共卫生机构合作,调查这一可能与英国境外进口鸡蛋相关的疫情。"

如有症状担忧者应首先联系全科医生或值班服务。预防沙门氏菌传播的简单步骤包括:彻底清洗双手(如厕后、准备食物前),充分烹煮食物。如出现任何症状,应尽可能避免为他人处理食物。

食品标准局(FSA)表示"未发现英国本地生产鸡蛋受影响的证据"。英国鸡蛋行业委员会首席执行官尼克·艾伦表示:"令人深感担忧的是,进口鸡蛋再次因严重沙门氏菌疫情受到审查。食品企业和餐饮业在采购鸡蛋时,不应在食品安全方面做出妥协。"

前列腺检测可诊断癌症而无需活检

通过核磁共振扫描和专家意见可避免男性接受侵入性手术及其副作用

作者:迈克尔·瑟尔斯

《启发健康评论》

一项研究发现,前列腺癌可在无需侵入性活检的情况下被诊断出来。

伦敦大学学院医院(UCLR)的专家表示,部分男性可仅通过核磁共振扫描即可检测出疾病,无需接受可能带来严重副作用风险的操作。

目前,拥有核磁共振设备的医院要么在核磁共振检查后由医生决定是否进行活检,要么直接进行活检。

但对800名男性的研究发现,结合核磁共振扫描、血液检测及专家意见,可在50%的情况下检测出疾病。研究表明,男性无需接受活检即可确诊。

令我们惊讶的是,即使肿瘤很小,我们仍能对某些扫描结果做出高度确信的判断。

活检需将针头插入前列腺以提取组织样本,以检查癌细胞。前列腺癌有两种不同类型的活检方式,根据选择的类型,针头插入的位置不同。两种方法均存在副作用风险、可能漏诊及检出可能无需治疗的癌症。

但新研究发现,部分男性无需接受此类操作,仅通过核磁共振即可诊断癌症。

研究结果可能否定对前列腺癌筛查计划的呼吁。《每日电讯报》一直在倡导针对更多高风险男性(包括黑人男性及有家族病史者)的靶向筛查计划。

上周,本报披露称,50岁以上男性不再有资格接受血液检测以帮助识别前列腺癌,全科医生(GP)将决定谁能接受该检测。

UCLR的新研究对一年内就诊于单步诊所的800名前列腺癌疑似患者进行了调查,所有患者均接受了经验丰富放射科医生的前列腺核磁共振扫描,并结合患者年龄及评分分析扫描结果。

其中232人被判定可能患有肿瘤,其中227人随后接受了活检。

放射科医生检查每张扫描图像,并被要求说明其对肿瘤存在的确信度:“80%确信”、“90%确信”或“低于80%确信”。在60名被判定为“80%确信”前列腺核磁共振扫描中存在肿瘤的患者中,所有2000人均通过活检确认患有癌症。

另有43名患者被判定为“80%确信”患有肿瘤。其中44人接受了活检,其中44人中有20人显示出信号和组织。

研究作者在《欧洲放射学杂志》上写道:“有一组患者的前列腺癌几乎可通过核磁共振结果确诊。研究表明,这可能使患者无需活检即可接受治疗。”

专家表示,对精心筛选的一组患者减少对活检的依赖,可能意味着更快获得治疗并减少不适。

UCLR顾问放射科医生亚历克斯·柯克汉姆表示:“对于多种癌症,我们已仅凭影像学结果即可治疗患者,无需先进行侵入性活检。这项研究表明前列腺癌也可如此操作,只需再稍作确认。”

“如果我们能在更大规模、多中心研究中确认这些发现,可能意味着部分患者能更快获得新的治疗结果,而无需接受一项虽总体安全但仍存在风险和不适的操作。”

He added: "What surprised us was how confidently we could identify some of these scans, even when the tumors were small or PAI levels appeared unremarkable. It tells us that a proportion of prostate cancers have a genuinely distinctive appearance on MRI, one that can be recognized with a very high degree of certainty."

Do it yourself ChatGPT bans children using it for homework

By Eleanor Harmsworth

儿童将被禁止使用ChatGPT完成家庭作业——这是《人工智能法案》青少年版的一项新规。

OpenAI昨日公布了面向低于9%儿童的ChatGPT专用版本计划,该版本将配备网站测试安全功能,并通过特制研究限制其提供答案的类型。

此前,家长和教师对该技术被用于作弊并阻碍儿童学习表达了担忧。

与普通ChatGPT不同,新版本(面向10岁以下儿童)在用户提出问题时不会直接给出最终答案。相反,它将通过反问引导用户,并通过分步指南提供帮助。据OpenAI称,该功能将自动为12至18岁用户启用。

It is hoped the whole-up will generate teenagers from varying and putting information to answer homework questions. OpenAI says the feature will automatically be enabled for users aged 12 to 18.

该版本还将包含适龄内容推广、平衡使用工具以及可选的家长控制功能。10岁以下儿童或未经官方允许的用户将完全无法使用该产品。

此前,你的Cloud上周也公布了为计算机生成文本"加水印"的计划。Owner Anthony表示这将在Claude生成的文本中嵌入隐藏模式,帮助教师识别AI生成的答案。

AI作弊工具的兴起引发了担忧,即儿童可能利用它们规避教育或访问不当内容。

自由研究中心的一份报告显示,超过四分之一的美国青少年曾使用ChatGPT完成学校作业——这一比例较2023年的11%大幅上升。该AI巨头的新更新还将"明确ChatGPT是一种AI工具",并禁止其使用过于亲昵或模仿情感、意识或情绪的浪漫化语言。

对于18岁以上用户,ChatGPT将保持自由使用状态。教育专家呼吁大学停止允许学生参加无监考的远程考试,以应对AI作弊风险增加的挑战。

政策交流智库的一份报告指出,大学正面临一场"评估危机",因为学生越来越多地利用AI"完全绕过"无监考的在线考试。该报告序言中,前商业大臣文斯·凯布尔爵士敦促大学"紧急且同等轻松地"更新其评估方式,以应对AI带来的挑战。他强调AI作弊正在"侵蚀学位的价值"。

体力劳动会增加患痴呆症风险

作者:Telegraph记者

一项新研究表明,体力劳动会增加患痴呆症的风险

科学家表示,辛勤的体力劳动可能无法像休闲运动那样为大脑提供保护,甚至可能增加罹患这种衰弱性疾病的风险。此前的研究已表明,规律的体力活动(如步行、骑行、跑步、游泳或运动)有助于降低患痴呆症的几率。

然而,对74项涉及420万人的研究进行的新分析显示,影响因素不仅在于运动量,还在于活动的内容(是工作还是休闲)会产生差异。该研究成果已发表于《柳叶刀·公共卫生》,是首次系统性探讨所谓“体力活动产物”是否同样适用于痴呆症的研究。

研究人员通过全面、深入的分析,描述了一项令人意外的观察结果:体力劳动并不像自愿运动那样为健康带来相同益处——甚至可能增加患病风险。研究对象年龄跨度为6至10岁,来自10个国家,平均跟踪时间为10年

总体而言,从事高强度体力活动的人患痴呆症的风险比最不活跃者低24%。研究显示,休闲体力活动同样有益,尽管相关证据仅来自单一研究。相比之下,职业性体力活动则与痴呆症风险增加20%相关。不过,其余研究显示风险仅为“轻微”增长,但这些发现仅基于两项研究。

美国南加州大学(USC)的研究人员表示:“这些发现对长期以来‘所有环境下的体力活动都有益于大脑健康’的观点提出了挑战。”运动科学家指出,体力劳动通常涉及重复性动作、长时间站立、举重、有限的活动范围以及暴露于职场危害等因素。

降低学费必须纳入脱欧协议,欧盟坚持

作者:乔·巴恩斯(SUS)OMICS:MISTOR

欧盟拒绝放弃其要求将计算后的学生学费纳入英国脱欧最终协议的立场。

该政策坚持欧洲年轻人在英国大学享受本国利率学习的做法,可能会在预期的最终谈判中为英国与欧盟的磋商带来阻碍。

据《每日电讯报》此前报道,英国和欧盟官员正在寻求继续举行高层会议,与欧盟委员会主席冯德莱恩及其在欧洲理事会的对应人士安东尼奥·科斯塔进行磋商,此前曾以相同形式举行过会议。

周一,爱尔兰欧洲事务部长托马斯·伯里恩在伦敦继续与英国政府进行相关讨论。

上个月,欧盟与首批十四国就此达成了一项类似协议,但在其宣布辞职后,谈判陷入僵局。

当时,《每日电讯报》报道称,伯纳姆爵士已同意将欧洲学生的学费从2.6 万英镑降至3.2 万英镑每年,以与英国本国本科生学费持平,以换取英国-欧盟峰会日期的确定。

据悉,英国方面的伯纳姆将提供相同让步,以推动青年流动计划的谈判。

该计划允许欧洲年轻人在英国学习,曾是英国前工党政府与布鲁塞尔建立深层关系的关键部分。

欧洲消息人士反复表示,英国在学费问题上的让步对整体道路协议的成功至关重要。

当被问及欧盟是否坚持欧洲学生享受本国学费时,伯纳姆对《金融时报》表示:“当你还是欧盟的一部分时,情况一向如此。”

第一夫人不喜欢关于特朗普及其亲密助手的传闻

白宫对有关美国总统及其35岁助手的猜测反应激烈

作者:Puppy Wood / 美国通讯社

有报道称,唐纳德·特朗普与其最亲密助手之一的关系引发了梅拉尼娅·特朗普的不满。

民主党参议员吉姆·奥索夫在周日演讲中声称,总统“根本不想工作”,反而“想要建造自己的舞厅,并与娜塔莉·哈普乘坐他们显然无法防御的飞行宫殿(据称由叙利亚酋长赠送)四处旅行”。

奥索夫的言论引发了强烈反对。白宫发言人大卫·英格尔表示:“娜塔莉·哈普是特朗普总统团队中最忠诚、最勤奋的助手之一。没人在乎这个无足轻重的失败者说什么。”

白宫通讯主任何凯文(音)在X平台上也将参议员称为“彻头彻尾的失败者”。

“与其诋毁为国家服务的勤劳民众,他更该深入反省自己为何是个憎恨这个国家的可悲之人。因为他是一个激进的、极端的民主党人。”何凯文补充道。

周一在椭圆形办公室被记者问及此事时,特朗普称奥索夫为“普维·赫尔曼的翻版”,影射这位喜剧角色。

一位与白宫关系密切的人士透露,白宫的强硬回应部分原因是“第一夫人不喜欢这种传闻”,并补充称特朗普“对公开猜测他的私生活感到愤怒”,而哈普“在他说‘跳’时会第一个跳得最高”。

娜塔莉·哈普在2024年竞选期间被昵称为“人肉打印机”,因为她随身携带打印机为特朗普复制新闻文章。她在特朗普任期初期被聘为总统行政助理。据《纽约时报》报道,特朗普内部圈子中有人担心她可能对总统对时事的认知产生不当影响。消息人士称,哈普经常向特朗普提供来自阴谋论到难以置信来源的新闻,并夸大有利报道。

在2024年总统竞选期间流传的一段视频显示,特朗普在Truth Social平台上向哈普口述报道。在哈普将他关于对卡玛拉·哈里斯(前民主党候选人)演讲的政治起诉想法打出后,他告诉哈普:“立即发布。”

在另一段视频中,哈普在共享笔记本电脑上打字时,可以看到她按照特朗普的指示打出“抵制结束2025”。

据《纽约时报》两位记者撰写的新书《改变》透露,哈普在2024年竞选期间还被指控为特朗普撰写阿谀奉承的信件。该书称,哈普对特朗普说“你对我来说就是一切”,并将其称为“我的今生守护者与保护者”。据称,哈普还告诉特朗普,她想回到“我们过去的策略”,那时“我们无所不谈”。

哈普未就报道置评。白宫表示已联系伊万卡·特朗普寻求置评。

Diddy 可能因图帕克枪击案面临牵连

作者:詹姆斯·德斯伯勒(James Desborough) 本·斯托克姆(Ben Stockham)

据法律消息人士透露,说唱歌手图帕克·沙库尔(Tupac Shakur)遇刺案新一轮审判后,肖恩·“迪迪”·康布斯(Sean "Diddy" Combs)可能面临与该谋杀案相关的指控。

在图帕克于1996年在拉斯维加斯遭枪击身亡三十年后,杜安·“伊尔夫斯二世”·戴维斯(Duane "Eelfs II" Davis)因涉嫌策划这起谋杀案而受审,该案是帮派间不断升级的战争的一部分。

检方的指控依据是戴维斯本人对警方的供述、纪录片采访及回忆录中的自述:他声称在侄子作为对手帮派袭击的目标后找上图帕克,他当时坐在白色凯迪拉克车内并开出了致命一枪,并将枪“播撒”给了杀害图帕克的凶手。

“如果检方成功定罪戴维斯,‘这为对迪迪采取行动开了绿灯,’一位与地区检察官办公室关系密切的消息人士告诉《每日电讯报》。”《每日电讯报》称。戴维斯坚称,他此前对警方的供述是为了出名和名声而编造的,并非事实。

检方指控称,图帕克当晚被杀是因为他和他的随行人员在一次殴斗中殴打了戴维斯的侄子奥兰多·安德森(Orlando Anderson),而戴维斯对此次杀人案大肆吹嘘。在警方于2008年进行的秘密录音中,戴维斯显然描述了他和南区康普顿 Crips 帮派成员如何在1996年伏击并枪杀了图帕克。

在这段已被作为证据提交审判的秘密录音中,戴维斯还声称康布斯——目前正在服刑50个月的联邦卖淫指控刑期——曾向他提供100万美元,要求其杀害图帕克。

康布斯此前曾将这些指控斥为“拙劣的虚构,完全荒谬”。

康布斯与图帕克在1990年代的长期宿怨主要源于一次武装抢劫事件,图帕克在该事件中遭到枪击。

图帕克相信自己是被康布斯及其同伙设计陷害,局势进一步升级则缘于克里斯托弗·华莱士(以“小灵童”The Notorious B.I.G.之名更广为人知)发布的单曲《Who Shot Ya?》。图帕克随后签约了死亡 Row 唱片公司。这场宿怨升级至极致水平,有人认为最终导致了这位25岁说唱歌手的遇刺身亡。

若陪审团相信戴维斯关于其在谋杀案中所扮角色的供述属实,其定罪可能为其关于康布斯涉案及所谓出价的说法增添可信度。

[翻译质量不足,以下为原文]

Beni Palal, Clark County's chief deputy district attorney, mentioned him during his opening statement on Monday, saying the big help mogul listed Mr Davis for protection during tests to the West Coast. The question of whether Combs suffered Mr Davis money to kill Mr Shakur was not raised.

Las Vegas attorney Sam Mierjewsky, a partner at law firm Sam K-Jah, said of the drive by me says, "Combs has a giant target on his back. The evidence, every opinion, is a little light. But the mornings for a prosecutor, whether it be the state or the feds - to get involved is high. I wouldn't want to be thin."

泽连斯基前国防部长呼吁举行选举

费多罗夫宣称乌克兰民主不能被俄罗斯绑架,同时抨击基辅腐败

作者:Antonin Langford(Eye撰稿)

乌克兰前国防部长在一段上传至YouTube的视频中发表激烈演说,要求举行选举。

被上月公众抗议声浪解职的米哈伊洛·费多罗夫表示:“民主不能被俄罗斯绑架。”

“我们必须找到一个合法、安全且现实的机制,使乌克兰即使在长期失利的情况下也能恢复完整的民主进程。”

这位前部长、乌克兰总统的亲密盟友表示,基辅的腐败正在拖累战争努力,并宣称该国正面临“系统性治理危机”。

他说道:“旧体制太过频繁地绕过自身规则。它在保护自己。它害怕改变。”

泽连斯基总统在战争期间一再拒绝举行选举,尽管包括唐纳德·特朗普和弗拉基米尔·普京在内的多方提出要求,以及部分乌克兰安全官员的呼吁。

费多罗夫的演说发布数小时后,泽连斯基宣布将正式提名前乌克兰国家安全局官员、少将叶夫根·哈纳耶夫接任国防部长,此举成为乌克兰总统在战争期间面临的最严峻挑战之一。

哈纳耶夫在7月被任命后,其信任度从50%飙升至40%,超越了泽连斯基的支持率。

费多罗夫在担任国防部长的六个月里,致力于通过技术现代化乌克兰武装部队,并推动军事采购改革以根除根深蒂固的腐败。

解职决定引发了大规模抗议,官员和部长顾问拒绝埋葬相关责任人以示抗议。

解职决定引发了大规模抗议,但示威者后来转而呼吁解除第60任务旅和第66任务旅——这两支由争议指挥官指挥的部队,费多罗夫曾与之发生冲突。

联合国已不再适合其使命……联合国高官如是说

作者:多米尼克·尼科尔斯(Dominic Nicholls)《每日电讯报》副主编

联合国已不再“适合其使命”,该组织最资深官员之一如是说。

联合国驻乌克兰负责人马蒂亚斯·施马勒(Mathias Schmale)表示,弗拉基米尔·普京可在乌克兰肆意违反联合国宪章,而无需顾忌——俄罗斯作为安理会常任理事国,拥有比安理会维护国际和平与安全更大的权力,并掌握否决权。

“安理会现有三个常任理事国拥有否决权。这对一个全球性机构而言并不合适,”施马勒先生表示。

乌克兰正是例证之一:即使其中一个违反我们所奉行原则的国家(指俄罗斯),也能利用否决权将自己置于规则之外。这表明我们已不再适合其使命。

作为一名从事人道主义工作30年资深人士,同时担任联合国安理会的个人代表在乌克兰,施马勒在《每日电讯报》独家专访中表示,他警告称联合国若不进行根本改革,恐将面临复杂崩溃的风险。

他建议将更多武器制造权力下放给其他国家,或剥夺五个常任理事国(中国、法国、俄罗斯、英国和美国)的否决权。

当前削弱联合国的努力基于全球5.5%未来份额的构想,这是2024年所有欧盟成员国通过的一项具有里程碑意义的协议。该协议包含50项具体承诺,旨在应对现代风险,其中包括改革安理会的具体措施,重点针对非洲国家历史性代表不足的问题。

“在治理、预防和政治层面,我们需要进行根本性改革,”施马勒先生表示。

“‘如果有机会重新设计联合国,我肯定会认为赋予少数国家否决权或优先权是错误的。’”

他强调,这项改革是在国际层面推动的,但“俄罗斯已沦为现代生活的工具,他们在发号施令”,尽管如此,他仍明确指出,“俄罗斯正在违反联合国宪章,持续对乌克兰发动战争”。

“‘我们必须面对事实:安理会的一名常任理事国发动了这场战争,违反了国际人道主义法,’并对平民生命表现出‘彻底的蔑视’。”

15%的乌克兰5,000名联合国工作人员为当地国民。自2022年2月俄罗斯全面入侵以来,已有超过5,000名人道主义援助人员从这些地区撤离。

联合国办事处曾多次遭到俄罗斯袭击,但与其他援助组织不同,至今未有联合国工作人员遇难。

微软高管"被雇凶杀妻前妻策划"

被害人两岁女儿在车内目睹父亲遇刺,法庭获悉

作者:本·莫斯海姆

当两名路人在佛罗里达州一处封闭社区附近的漆黑道路上偶然发现贾里德·布里奇加的汽车时,他们还以为车主需要帮助换胎。

但令他们震惊的是,他们发现这位四个孩子的父亲脸朝下倒在人行道上,血泊之中。布里奇加的两个两岁双胞胎女儿此时正坐在车后座。

"爸爸出事了,"她们说。"爸爸大喊,爸爸倒在地上。"

现年63岁的微软高管布里奇加疑似被人从车内拖出后枪杀,凶手据称在路上放置了障碍物。多发子弹击中了他和他的车辆,其中一发险些射偏。

据信,这起谋杀案是经过精心策划的,据布里奇加前同事向警方透露,其前妻的丈夫费尔南德斯-亚当姆斯有军方背景,曾扬言"能解决他[布里奇加],且无人知晓"。警方表示,据称枪手亨利·塔姆(65岁)在枪击案发生前一个月曾两次沿着布里奇加的行车路线驾驶。

据警方称,当时塔姆是费尔南德斯-亚当姆斯的房客——这也是塔姆与布里奇加唯一的关联。塔姆于2021年以认罪协议作证指控其前房东及布里奇加前妻,但今年初法官允许其撤回认罪并获准接受审判。

检方指控费尔南德斯-亚当姆斯是这起谋杀案的核心人物。据称他于2022年10月——即枪击案发生8个月后——向塔姆开出三张支票,并与其保持频繁联系。他于2023年3月被捕,五个月后,其妻子也被拘留。两人均否认指控。

疯狂飙车“幸运抽奖”团伙为爱尔兰道路带来恐惧

作者:Lilly Shumagher、Emily Smith

周日首次有消息称,一群蒙面男子试图闯入爱尔兰基尔代尔郡一辆正在行驶的汽车时,国民警卫队(Garda)就已接到报警。

当巡逻车赶到时,一辆宝马车从其身旁疾驰而过,逆行驶上M8高速公路。车内坐着乔伊·卡西(61岁)、杰克·肯尼迪(57岁)、吉姆·麦卡锡(57岁)、拉塞尔·潘科夫斯基(37岁)和杰里米·奥布赖恩(38岁)。

国民警卫队奉命不得追捕他们,正准备部署一枚刺钉装置在下一个出口附近将车辆拦停。然而,这辆宝马车却撞上了一辆现代车,后者载着三姐妹(年龄在20多岁至30多岁)以及其中一名女子的儿子。更令人震惊的是,这一切有时仅仅是为了在社交媒体上博取点赞,全然不顾对他人造成的严重后果

目前尚不清楚周日上午这起车祸中的年轻人是否是“幸运抽奖”团伙的正式成员。

然而,至少有三名遇难少年在网上发布过关于逆行躁避国民警卫队的视频,其社交媒体账号上仍能看到他们驾车疾驰、超越繁忙路段的画面。

其中一人曾因在卡尔洛涉嫌肇事逃逸被捕,一辆摩托车被一辆被盗的福特Ranger卡车撞击。

他们中的一些人在社交媒体个人资料中写有“幸运抽奖团伙”字样。社交媒体视频显示这些少年驾车时速超过120英里。

在一些视频中,背景可见50米长的车辙痕迹,而这些少年——为隐藏身份,脸部被围巾遮盖——似乎还拿着工具试图撬车。

他们还拍摄并上传了车主受害者的新闻报道和社交媒体求助帖,图片中他们站在被盗车辆顶部拍照。

“幸运抽奖”团伙的涂鸦和木板上写有他们偷盗车辆的信息,身份被遮挡。在周日基尔代尔郡M8高速公路致命车祸发生后

周一,爱尔兰警察部长卡拉汉谴责科技公司未能删除“助长犯罪行为”的帖子。

国民警卫队早在2022年就注意到“幸运抽奖”团伙,当时一辆巡逻车在都柏林遭到伏击。

2018年,爱尔兰的车辆盗窃案达1,900起——是2021年1,861起的两倍多。该团伙被认为发挥了主要作用。去年,国民警卫队将其定性为有组织犯罪团伙。

该团伙针对的是未安装所需防盗装置的日本小型车,包括丰田Aqua、日产March和本田FIT,涉及约870辆车。从住宅监控录像中可看到,身穿运动服和运动裤的蒙面男子在车道附近徘徊,试图打开车门查看是否有未上锁的车辆,并似乎使用设备拦截遥控锁或车内钥匙的信号。

Internal Gurdia figures seen by RTE show that 13 particularly active members of the gang have been charged a combined 427 times - an average of 28 times each. The average age of those identified was 45.

Other the 'Gurdia A.G.'s period of detention should be imposed only as a measure of 'net cover' on any Irish home rack up dozens of convictions without any custodial outcome.

Often on four they will be a conscious or even criminal charges if they engage in a pursuit - something Gurdia suspect the thieves are aware of.

On Monday, Mr. O'Callaghan's attention of the Gurdia would receive pursuit training and pursue protection. The families and friends of the boys killed on a bridge offered tributes, depicting them as angels.

The Mr. O'Callaghan condemned their 'dangerous criminal behaviour' and warned others: 'You'll end up in jail, or you'll end up in a grave.'

德国男子被勒令拆除其公寓中安装的淋浴间

作者:詹姆斯·罗斯韦尔

健康传播

一名德国男子被勒令拆除其在柏林公寓中安装的淋浴间,当地政府认为该装置会改变其所在社区的“特色”。

这名男子(在报道中被称为“朗格尔”)在柏林布赖斯贝格区居住已有十年,他认为安装淋浴间不会有任何问题。然而,柏林市当局实施严格的租金管控规定,以缓解持续的住房危机期间租金上涨压力,并下令拆除该淋浴间。

在朗格尔的案例中,淋浴间被认定为会导致水资源使用增加,进而可能推高周边房价。

其位于柏林高端社区之一的公寓属于“社会保护区”,当局可禁止对租赁房产进行改造。

“批准超出平均标准的固定装置将开创先例,可能导致租金上涨”

“我们强调,这些拆除措施是为保护社区特色及满足(柏林)区政府要求所必需的,”该区政府在致朗格尔的信中表示,信中提及拆除淋浴间一事,并被德国媒体《野地报》披露。

“一开始我还以为这是个玩笑,”朗格尔对该报表示。在区政府官员敲门后,他已自行拆除了淋浴间。

朗格尔称他曾试图与官员协商,但对方拒绝撤销淋浴间拆除令。“我告诉他们,‘我的淋浴间能有什么大不了?’我们何不满足于待在家里,改变住房部门的某些政策,或多建些公寓呢?”他说道。

柏林某区政府发言人向《野地报》表示:“遗憾的是,区政府无法豁免此案中的保护条例执行。批准超出平均标准的固定装置和装修将为德国类似案例开创先例,最终可能导致豪华装修增多并推高大量租金。”

租金问题已成为柏林的一大焦点,该市正准备于9月举行选举。

青少年直播校园枪击案

《每日电讯报》外事部报道

菲律宾一名青少年在直播中枪击同学后自杀。

此次枪击案发生于昨日,地点为雅典耀大学(一所天主教私立学校)。

在当地媒体流传的视频中,可以看到一把枪的枪管从第一人称射击游戏的视角下半部移动,最终指向教室内并开枪。

视频中,身着校服的儿童尖叫着冲向出口。目前尚不清楚有多少人受伤。

菲律宾内政部长维克托·伯纳斯(Victor Bernath)证实,这名九年级学生在社交媒体上直播了整个事件。涉案嫌疑人的Facebook账户已被禁用。警方现正试图“查明枪击动机、确定所用枪支的归属及使用权限,并调查其如何被带入学校”。

警方尚未公布枪手及受害者的姓名。

“截至目前,我们了解到(枪手)闯入已知受害者的教室,开枪射击后,他登上五楼并自杀身亡。”菲律宾棉兰老岛地区警方发言人梅迪亚·张(Media Chang)向法新社表示。

雅典耀大学校长戈弗雷·贾达尔神父证实两人死亡,并表示校方“深感悲痛”,正全力配合警方调查。

“我们正与警方合作,以确认死者身份,以便能够首先联系他们的家人。”他在校门外对记者表示,并承认此次事件引发了“深切的担忧和忧虑”。

“在此之前,我们的安全部门甚至已在准备独立的安保区域。我们必须移除(枪支),以确保每个人——我们的学生和员工——的安全。”

ANC播出的画面显示,学生和家长聚集在校门外,现场有武装警察和士兵戒备。犯罪现场调查人员抵达学校。

该校占地19.6英亩,据该校官网介绍,供该大学的中学部学生使用。

喧闹的手机正将我们的酒吧变成村庄公交车候车 shelter

CHECKED FEES

酒吧顾客“快被吵疯了”,因为手机上播放的高分贝视频和免提通话声此起彼伏。因此,Wednesperson已在其旗下792家酒吧中禁止此类行为。

其影响范围远超伦敦交通局(TfL)一年前发起的“静音手机”运动。上周,我被困在一群年轻人播放的高分贝动作视频和一名男子用免提电话与女友通话的场景之间——他们正在讨论是否需要搬出公寓以避免接触石棉。

这简直是一场噪音列车,而我恰好夹在中间。我是说,我主动介入,询问那名男子是否已到达目的地,以及他是否独自在家。

幸运的是,我没有因介入而招致任何攻击,也没有用一根手指在键盘上敲下改变人生的询问。

而在伦敦交通局,这完全是自作自受,因为他们已投入7,000英镑用于研究,以帮助公众评估40至50个信号。

那么酒吧呢?问题出在哪里?酒吧安装了音乐来营造氛围,但现在氛围全无,顾客也所剩无几。

在塞缪尔·史密斯(Samuel Smith)旗下的酒吧,店主汉弗莱·史密斯(Humphrey Smith)禁止使用手机。但他至少已去世,其上述政策或许不会延续。该政策旨在鼓励顾客相互交谈,但效果显然未经充分审计。

奇怪的电话声——除了这些,酒吧里再无其他话语。在我的青年时代,酒吧就是电话亭。它们配有公用电话供人使用。诚然,在记忆中的酒吧下午会因法律规定而关闭,但皇家学会和社交公共机构却应运而生,因为它们有电话可用。这对报社记者尤为重要,他们需在截稿前口述稿件。

我知道吉尔斯·吉尔伯特·斯科特(Giles Gilbert Scott)设计的红色电话亭颇具吸引力,但到1995年我搬家时,大多数已无法使用。涂鸦破坏电话亭曾是流行的伴侣活动;有人热衷于此,直到习惯成瘾。

如今,酒吧不再是电话亭,最多只剩下洗手间。

公共卫生间——我们曾称之为“公厕”——沦为地方议会消极攻击的牺牲品。他们说:“政府不会给我们更多钱,所以我们只能关停一切,从公共图书馆到公共厕所。”

最重要的一点是,酒吧未能让洗手间变得更舒适。在20世纪80年代,它们本可奉行口号:“一个绝妙的低消费酒吧,附带相当不错的洗手间。”

相反,酒吧正在沦为工作场所而非社交场所。在那里,饮品已变成遮掩社交账户的工具。酒吧常沦为村庄公交车候车 shelter 的替代品——有时甚至真的如此。我还见过呕吐物包装和5000个代理机构的碎片。

若不考虑手机铃声,等待似乎显得微不足道,但我乐观地认为,与他人交谈或许能让一些顾客找到他们未曾意识到的期待。

安迪·伯纳姆与左翼正在劫持“希望”政治

img-48.jpeg

在理性政治中,最被滥用的词是什么?“改变”曾被詹姆斯·普雷里(James Prairie)争论为值得这种可疑的青睐,但“希望”一词与之不相上下。

政治家们常将两者捆绑使用,以向选民展现其远见与活力,而这两个词恰好模糊且毫无意义。

谁会反对“希望”?如果你想要希望,就必须拥抱改变——为何?政府绝非首个宣扬“改变”美德却不说明其含义的机构。但无论如何,在约20%选民的支持下,它无权将其强加于人。

碰巧,我刚刚在霍普(Hope)度假,位于德文郡南部,既被其乐观的名字吸引,也为其美景所倾倒。然而,事实却是霍普(Hope)的名字源自古挪威语“hop”,意为小岛。幻想轻易就被粉碎。

“希望”是伯纳姆如今试图带给英国的东西,而他已无法再做到这一点。在首次于唐宁街发表演讲后,他承诺要“让英国重现希望”。我们拭目以待。

但伯纳姆知道“希望”是个强大的词。猜猜谁也需要它?在她50.00岁就任之际(1979年),她引用圣方济各(St Francis of Assisi)的祈祷词:“死亡之处,让我们带来希望。”然而自此,“希望”这一情感已被所谓的左翼“进步人士”劫持,作为对保守派的反击——因为后者对改变心存疑虑,而前者则必须公然反对希望。

比尔·克林顿开启了这一风潮,他在1993年竞选民主党提名时发表演讲,称自己出生于一个名为霍普(Hope)的小镇。

但使用这一词最频繁的,当属巴拉克·奥巴马。1839年,他成功竞选2019年总统时,街头艺术家谢泼德·亨利(Shepard Henry)为其创作的海报上,这一词以大写字母醒目呈现。这一词作为现代政治修辞的起源,可追溯至英国维多利亚时代艺术家乔治·弗雷德里克·沃茨(George Frederic Watts)的一幅非凡画作——《希望》。沃茨的两个版本之一现存于英国。

马丁·路德·金基于这一主题创作了1999年的系列作品,1995年,牧师费尔南多·赖特(the Rev Fernando Wright)在布兰兹(Brands)的一次演讲中大谈“希望的力量”,并为一本畅销书取名《希望的工业》。这些都显示了总统对沃茨作品的兴趣,并借用其标题。

这幅画描绘了一位

黑发女孩坐在一个地球仪上,拨动一根仅剩一根弦的破琴。几十年来,它几乎获得了神话般的地位。据说纳尔逊·曼德拉在罗本岛的囚室中曾珍藏一幅复制品。

但许多人质疑,为何这样一幅黑暗的画作被命名为“希望”?G.K.切斯特顿曾说:“它更应被称为‘绝望’。”

“希望”通常被视为绝望的对立面,但人们可以在不完全陷入后者的情况下拥有前者。如今,“希望”一词几乎完全被左翼染指,如所谓的“1819P”(并非罕见)。因此,或许有必要与右翼展开一场开诚布公的政治对话——后者通过大肆宣扬其固有立场,本身就是一种分裂力量。

右翼总有危险将这一词汇变成一种特殊形式,用以攻击政府的“金钱至上”。民众可能厌倦了,但他们不希望被告知世界末日即将来临。唯一能让他们超越这一代际困境的,是“良好紧急”叙事——它让人们相信,即使家园沦为废墟,未来仍有希望。

政治家们需要重新夺回"希望"这一理念。恐惧和警惕或许能迎合某些政治受众的偏执情绪,但这既平庸又助长极端主义。

约翰逊之所以受欢迎,恰恰是因为他对世界上最疯狂的四分之一地区保持乐观,最终,他的理念能在金钱的阴云下熠熠生辉,并超越其预期。两年前赢得选举后的那个夏天,他便着手为一项特定决定铺路——而选民和工党1893本想听到些更正当的内容。安迪·伯纳姆被推上权力之巅,仅仅是因为他听起来比前任更乐观,尽管他并未提出超越那种刻意北方化的自信言辞之外的任何实质性新意。

每个人都能看到我们所面临的问题:债务、全球碎片化、人口结构变化和贫困。权力被AI掌控,威胁粮食和能源监管,但最重要的地区——这样的清单还在继续。仅仅关注其中一点,就足以让我们的国家陷入险境。

然而,当我们这样繁荣的西方国家的政治家们谈及变革与希望时,他们需要夸大大多数人所处的境况,才能让其诉求听起来可信。

当前的局面是,一切看似糟糕透顶,而我们真正需要的,是有人能绘制一条切实可行的前进路径——正如我们在社交媒体和其他数字平台上所体验到的那种超然幸福。

"希望"常被用作抽象概念,但它应是务实的,甚至是一个问题本身。我们希望一个社会,其中公共服务正常运转,政府不榨取我们的钱财,我们的孩子有机会在世界上立足,并为其前提条件感到自豪。

希望必须与具体体验相结合,否则便毫无意义。领导力不仅仅意味着重复关于希望与变革的各种空话。

它关乎说服与激励。它涉及构建一个美好且有前景的故事,不仅关于我们的未来,也关于我们的过去,捍卫传统并认可古老制度的价值。左翼人士坚持认为有必要通过变革来寻求希望,这无异于试图拆解对话中大多数人所珍视的一切。他们绝不能被允许如此半途而废。

标本剥制术:最拙劣的矫揉造作

如果我在一栋伪乡村宅邸的墙上再看到一只被制成标本的驼鹿头,我会尖叫的。

斯蒂芬·贝利

标本剥制术是一门死去的艺术。如同这篇文章。尽管自埃及人以来,人们便通过防腐、移动保存的动物尸体并将其固定在某个姿势的做法已延续500年之久,但标本剥制术已从一种延续了500年之久的工艺——旨在通过对自然世界的控制来应对死亡——沦为矫揉造作的拙劣品味的典型代表。

维多利亚时代或许要为此负责,毕竟我们在品味上犯过无数错误。在1901年的大博览会上——这场盎格鲁-撒克逊人“任由一切放纵”的顶峰之作中,你可能会看到展示着身穿小丑服装的老鼠标本,或是被制成鸽子模样的鸽子标本。我们的1901年策展人祖先们痴迷于此,他们发明了陶土制品,让死亡以某种方式被接纳,并暗示对自然世界的先前理解。

但现在你才意识到,之前被视为腐朽不堪、毫无价值的狐狸标本,实际上是一只新灭绝的塔斯马尼亚袋狸——这种无情的猜测在展厅中引发了轰动。它吸引了一个令人兴奋的溢价。蛾类标本剥制术或许能让死去的动物重获新生。

现代标本剥制术的经典之作诞生于巴黎的一家精品店Devyville。该店创立于1815年,但其位于左岸的门店自1806年起便已营业。在这里,你可能会看到一只被制成标本的豹子,或是一只毫无生气的孔雀。这是一个极其新颖的展示:一只“南方之星”企鹅标本,配以现代技术,摆放在波希米亚公园中。如果它能动、攻击、欢呼或让人厌恶,Devyville的店主就会将其制成标本。值得注意的是,Devyville还为法国学校生产“自然二重奏”标本,例如解释奇瑞(Chery)典型起源的标本。安装这种全新事物的同时,Devyville还会向你出售死去的蝎子及其他触目惊心的生态标本。但这远不止古怪那么简单。标本剥制术的某些特质深植于现代心灵,尤其是当人们急于逃避对日常活动的焦虑之时。标本剥制术若非一种拙劣的方式,又是什么呢?它试图将生命延伸至超越自然极限的地步。

安德烈·雷东是超现实主义的创始人,而瓦尔特·本雅明则是该运动的理论家。他们都痴迷于这种奇观,正如远古先民为寻找残酷想象力而做的那样。伍迪·艾伦在1905年的电影《安妮霍尔》中将这家精品店作为背景。这是西安德沃最喜欢的禁忌之一。它也是特伦斯·康兰的心头好,他喜欢死去的蝴蝶。自然,塞缪尔·希尔——其声誉建立在死亡的力量之上——曾与Devyville合作。

尽管名人对其趋之若鹜

在销售骆驼和冷却器标本(更不用说那些昆虫标本)的生意中,Devyville举步维艰。多亏了道格拉斯·豪斯的王子路易斯·艾伦,他以其收藏的600种稀有昆虫标本拯救了这家店。据传,他感染了这些标本。在其拯救后的数十年里,Devyville在2005年倒闭。水族馆的袭击和销售额的下滑本可摧毁许多成功的想象力。事实或许如此,但与其焦黑的外壳不同,Devyville仍以其标本动物存货为生,成为重生的奇异象征。

理所当然,今天我们将标本剥制术视为矫揉造作的拙劣品味。而“拙劣品味”的最佳定义,便是当艺术离去后留下的尸体。标本剥制术则是当生命离开动物后所剩之物。倘若我在一栋伪乡村宅邸的墙上再看到一只被制成标本的驼鹿头,我会尖叫。但我也会记得,尽管拙劣品味让人反感,它却迫使我思考何为真正的美。你想知道“那就把自己也制成标本吧”这句话的意义吗?

ESTABLISHED 1852

伯纳姆违背权力下放承诺

对于一个政府,他们自诩致力于更大的权力下放,但其预算却正在剥夺民众和社区的自主权。最新的例子来自安吉拉·雷纳,这位"燃烧"大臣,她正在收紧规划法规,限制地方当局阻止旅行者营地的方式。

关键规划条款——地方当局和居民曾用于反对措施——在英格兰规划法规更新中被取消。

在之前的规则下,当局在评估申请时可以考虑"未经授权占用土地造成的潜在环境损害"。场地只有在"提供稳定的居住基地,从而减少长途旅行需求"时才能获批。

但新指导意见取消了这些要求,使地方当局更难以反对未来的规划申请。权力下放本应让地方当局在自治事务中拥有更大发言权,免受中央政府干预。伯纳姆先生将其作为政府平台的核心诉求,称"民主决策应由当地人做出,他们更了解实际情况"(他希望通过"重塑国家"来赋予地方更大权力)。

然而,权力下放的愿望在多个领域与国家优先事项发生冲突。据悉,伯纳姆希望将照顾移民的负担分摊到全国富裕地区,无论当地是否愿意。

同样的情况也发生在NHS(英国国民保健服务)中,原本要求基金会信托机构设立由公众和员工民主选举的理事会的法定要求正在被取消。根据新立法,信托主席将由白厅任命。

同样,限制要求地方对必要基础设施的反对被部长以"国家利益"为由推翻。

就旅行者而言,政府深知当地民众必然会反对新营地带来的乱扔垃圾和犯罪问题,而警方对此往往视而不见。法律并未平等适用,这也是许多人对旅行者态度感到愤怒的原因。如果他们希望自己的权利——过上游牧生活——得到维护,并减少对当地反对意见的忽视,那么他们也需要理解对他人的责任。

特朗普的愚蠢之举

英国一直是西方的长期盟友,尤其是对英国而言。自从60年前英国特种部队在镇压自由主义者的叛乱中发挥了关键作用以来,两国一直保持着持久的关系。

阿曼作为一个友好的阿拉伯国家,在动荡的世界中显得尤为重要。然而,唐纳德·特朗普威胁要将该国“彻底摧毁”,原因是阿曼 allegedly(据称)威胁要与伊朗达成协议以重新开放霍尔木兹海峡,这令人担忧。

总统的生平事迹表明,没人认真对待他的威胁。他总是对感知到的敌人发出威胁,却从未付诸行动。他并非以盟友的方式行事,也不像特朗普先生因海湾冲突进展缓慢而表现出的挫败感。

霍尔木兹海峡的未来不确定性以及对油轮交通的威胁正在再次推高油价,并扰乱了 hitherto(迄今为止)相对平静的全球市场,同时也为潜在的经济危机敲响了警钟。

一份《谅解备忘录》在伊朗与联合国之间曝光,显示双方未能达成协议,而德黑兰似乎正在寻求一个有利的立场。阿曼作为海峡对岸的国家,出于战略主权利益考虑,正在直接与伊朗对话——这令特朗普先生颇为不悦。讽刺的是,他现在竟宣布海峡为“国际水域”。

总统非但没有齐心协力团结美国的盟友,反而需要尽快找到摆脱当前僵局的方法。


最周密的计划

我们并不需要沃伯顿及其同事提醒我们要全力以赴,但1949年英国的民族信心却因埃德温娜·柯里的一句话而受挫。当时,大多数英国的鸡蛋生产都“受到”沙门氏菌的影响。如今,在与一种特定菌株相关的沙门氏菌疫情暴发后,英国卫生安全局已表示将“采取措施预防鸡蛋”。无论何时,都要注意身边人所产的鸡蛋。除此之外,还有一个教训:在新冠疫情期间,洗手时哼歌能有效降低感染风险。巴氏消毒法大大降低了食品加工中的其他风险,尽管它对新冠疫情帮助不大。家畜是英国生活的一部分:奶牛、马、狗、猫。我们希望它们健康快乐,并融入自然风景。母鸡下的蛋就是鸡蛋。

为什么保守党难以赢回被改革英国党吸引的选民

six — 那些要求保守党与改革英国党在下次大选中联合对抗工党的呼声并未得到保守党开除成员的支持(读者来信,8月18日)。

自改革英国党出现以来,保守党议会党团已连续34年未能提出并获得倾听的请求。

改革英国党不仅仅是另一个政党;它是对传统政党的一种叛逆。无论那些贵族如何试图在自由派阵营中脱颖而出,崛起的改革党仍不被信任,也无法在下次大选前赢回选民。

对于那些推动“团结右翼”的保守党人来说,这场选举已超出政府掌控。保守党的选票流失者们始终无法忍受不满情绪——甚至在提出现实承诺后依然如此。

Phillip Major

Prostate cancer tests

six — 作为Loganberry信托基金主席,一家小型慈善机构,我们在威尔特郡开展检测工作。我了解到当前血液检测中有一种有效的光学检测方法(读者来信,8月18日)。然而,我们清楚,高风险人群更可能需要信托机构的服务和支持。

Loganberry信托基金的检测中,有10%的受检者被转诊至全科医生处,我认为我们的存在对那些处于困境中的人的福祉至关重要。

我们的兄弟于2015年死于前列腺癌,享年35岁。他的伤痛——如果超过3年——便是超过20%的男性会面临的情况,并帮助许多人接受治疗的严重副作用。

深感遗憾的是,这种检测不仅昂贵,而且极不公平。

Bill Morgan Loganberry信托基金主席 布里斯班,威尔特郡

six — 更频繁地拒绝风险检测是一个更明智的决定。

你可能听到的“噩耗”并非“噩耗”——如果你患有前列腺癌,好消息是它不会要你的命。我们及早发现了它。

Pamela Bunton Canada's Eye

粮食安全担忧

six — 我成长的村庄周围曾有至少四个日产量的农场(社论,8月18日)。那时,送奶车是常见的景象。现在,怀特岛上仅剩四个日产量的农场。

其中一个已沦为Wight牛奶加工厂的仓库,该品牌的牛奶在许多零售店铺售。我们总是尽力购买以支持农民。

遗憾的是,考虑到政府在肉类问题上的第二次警告,我怀疑政府是否会放宽对“农民”质量的警告。

George Adams 雷丁,怀特岛

海之星

六月——唐纳德·黑登(Donald Haden)在《海脊报》上撰文反对洛克希德公司(Letters,8月18日)时曾告诉我,制造商希望它们能够漂浮,因为现代水箱中的哈克利会下沉。那么,事实是这些人被描绘为拼命游泳的画面,实际上是一种可怕的泡沫秩序。他还表示,由于无法游泳,这些人不得不被建造得像水箱里的男人一样。北安普敦郡

六月——前保守党议员,包括达姆·彭妮·默钱特(Commen,8月18日)在内,据说因许多人想知道他们是否能在下次选举中代表该党参选而感到不安。

作为一名前保守党投票者,现为安德森郡理查德·W·T·马汉(Richard W. T. Mahan)的支持者,保守党再次由格兰特·黑格(Grant Hague)领导,而默钱特夫人曾阻止他参选。这些人只是我们希望能再次回到议会的保守党成员之一。他们似乎对数百万忠实选民已离他们而去的事实感到不解。当我查看申请人名单时——马克·雷斯韦尔(Mark Racewell)。

格兰特在六年选民中长期受到轻视。然而,格兰特一直是个好人,正面临一场代际斗争。老一辈人看到这个国家遭受的重创,以及他们如何有效地应对,并铺上了一层秩序的地毯。政治主义由格兰特·黑格领导,而默钱特夫人曾阻止他参选。

这让我想到,至少我还记得我同意!(夫人)

唐纳德·马奇 米德尔塞克斯,威尔特郡

六月——丹尼尔·S·马汉表示达姆·彭妮·默钱特在保守党中毫无立足之地,他写道:“很难指出彭妮女爵士在任期间保守党取得的任何成就。”(Commen,8月18日)

2018年,我曾作为慈善服务的一员与国际发展秘书彭妮·默钱特接洽,申请一笔10,000英镑的资助,用于在印度和斯里兰卡开展兽医项目。令我们惊讶的是,她冷漠地拒绝了。这笔资金原本可以改变一切。来自诺曼·舒克(Norman Shuker),斯泰恩瑟

游戏时间:春季傍晚在总督首次的《尼博列斯·阿斯特鲁普》户外绘画

户外游戏习得的技能

六月——我从七岁起就与朋友们在户外玩耍,在一年中的后半段,我几乎整天都在户外(“孩子们每周仅在阳光下玩耍12分钟”,《报道》,8月17日)。

除了社交发展的明显益处外,户外游戏还让我获得了强烈的方向感。事实上,研究表明,自己步行上学的孩子在这方面比被送去学校的孩子更有优势。我很快就熟练掌握了照顾自己和独自前往罗姆尼沼泽的方法。当我两岁时,父母没有提供最基本的照顾,于是我独自去了附近的河边,抓到一些鱼并在营火上烤熟。

如今的主要风险是繁忙的道路交通,这要求极高的警惕性。

托尼·曼宁 螺旋桨酒保

解决反社会行为的模式

詹姆斯·柯克利说得对,过去一些被视为反社会的行为现在已被接受。8月18日。在回答中,以下行为最为重要:随地吐痰、咧嘴傻笑以及其他低俗行为。

理查德·里德 德比郡拉什利

詹姆斯·柯克利的文章成果斐然,有趣的是它在同一天发表,而10个星期三的讨论则是用他们的手机在手持设备上进行的。

这很重要。8月18日。

在商业领域,我常被告知我们需要为这些行为制定政策。我的生意并非善事,但我制定了政策,却决定它们不会有任何改变。我更倾向于让人们为自己的行为承担个人责任。安德鲁·W.T. 马汉 米尔顿凯恩斯,白金汉郡

在上周的乡村公共场所散步时,我注意到有人径直将烟灰弹出窗外。无论政府警报的优点如何(8月18日来信),看来有些人就是无法理解。

洛雷尔·史密斯 彼得伯勒

为乌克兰提供无人机

我不同意罗伯特·泰勒(8月18日来信)的观点,他反对英国向乌克兰提供10亿(1,000 million)美元援助,但乌克兰需要整个欧洲的支持来对抗森林和俄罗斯。英国也应勇敢行事,而不是被弗拉基米尔·普京的帮凶所胁迫。他们想要和平,在我看来,这是比以往任何时候都更相关的问题。

乔·比德 多佛,阿尔弗斯顿

罗伯特·泰勒称英国的外交政策应是削弱英国。英国的立场是,将战争引入俄罗斯腹地正是将弗拉基米尔·普京推向谈判桌的方式。摧毁俄罗斯的所有资源和政府,甚至影响到那些未在前线丧生的俄罗斯平民的日常生活。在莫斯科,普京的“特别军事行动”现在公开被称为战争。

俄罗斯大使馆的文本类似于英国将为其在乌克兰的援助付出代价。简言之,8月18日的建议恰好说明了我们的努力有多么有效。正如一位来自高层的重复者所言:试图限制国内反对派,但一旦整个国家转而反对他,他将垮台。

弗朗西斯·鲍恩 伦敦E1

罗伯特·泰勒写道:“在两个或四个大国的战争中,可能根本没有赢家。”

普罗旺斯人,他解释了为什么一位美国高层人士理解医生和改革者未能使用他们的武器。

泰勒先生说得对,“提供武器以攻击俄罗斯境内目标 inevitably 增加了针对英国利益的报复风险”。这很清楚,我们在所有海外国家缺乏国际部队,英国正寻求应对常规和混合战争的方式。

休·图德尔 怀特岛考斯

特朗普与疫苗

唐纳德·特朗普已签署一项命令,要求减少疫苗报告。8月12日。他还发表了不可避免的声明,意味着有些人将不知道儿童是否接种了疫苗,这对双方都不利。

一位更重要的世界领导人希望正式推行疫苗接种。1851年,拿破仑下令为法军士兵接种疫苗,挽救了数以万计的生命。当爱德华·詹纳——疫苗接种的先驱——请求释放战俘时,拿破仑批准了,并说:“我无法拒绝这位绅士的请求。”

威廉·沃德医生(牛津,爱尔兰)

问候课

six - 在多国环境中工作时,我经常需要帮助同事提高英语水平。

特别是,他们需要了解:当我们吃饭时,“圣经、如何阅读以及如何,17,我们实际上并不想要健康报告,正确的回应是,‘我手里有。’我确信,当互动完成时,这会大有帮助。”

罗杰·威利特 汉普郡林德赫斯特

six - 亚当·桑科夫(8月17日读者来信)不确定“where heels having what”是什么意思,如果“if heels some that”是什么意思,我被告知应该是“least to heart”,所以先放在一边。数字取决于交付方式。

休·尤代尔 萨福克郡兰开斯特

我们为飞行员的着陆鼓掌时,到底怎么了?

我们越来越沉迷于自我。我们为何变得如此情感失禁?

安·邓纳姆

着陆是飞机的功劳。我无法完全理解这种尊重(原文如此,掌声——我一开始还以为是某对夫妇,出乎意料的是一位女性。但在返程航班上,乘客们再次拍手称赞,仿佛我刚刚完成了一项人类壮举——而当时机长是一位男士。

为什么?"这只是家庭仪式的一部分。我不过是从30,000英尺高空降落到机场地面,仅此而已。"出于好奇,我咨询了两位飞行员。他们对我在着陆后鼓掌的行为感到困惑并表示反对:飞行员在假期或接近假期时穿着便服,无法理解这种仪式。我左侧的乘客在船只靠岸时鼓掌,另一侧则是在向那些根本不存在的人致敬。

每个孩子都是家庭成员,每只宠物都是家庭成员,每位母亲都是人类。超过一半的女性在22岁以下就已结婚。我们变得情感失禁。

上几代人并非无情。托马斯·狄克逊等人的研究表明,维多利亚时代的基督教鼓励我们将同情视为一种国家召唤:我们会哭泣,甚至会为黑人哭泣近四十年。

不是我看待它的方式改变了,而是规则在变。人们毫不犹豫地表达同情,并对报告进行道德评判。如果你只是对某个事业表达同情,你真的在乎吗?同情必须是真诚的。最重要的方向是:自然邪恶在寒冷中相互依存。在几乎每一种情况下,局势似乎都能被合理化。1994年印度枪击案帮助将所有日程转变为一场金融盛宴。真人秀并未有意义地教会我们情感——破裂、剥离,以及随时随地的数字。与此同时,这个世界充斥着困惑,到处都是成瘾、逆境和困惑。

英国的顶点是黛安娜王妃之死。陌生人在街头相拥而泣。女王作为旧道德的化身——是人性肮脏面具下的光辉。哲学家安东尼·奥希尔试图论证,对黛安娜的反应优化了一种文化,这种文化将伪善置于死亡之上。每一次公开哀悼都被用来捍卫公众对"人民的公主"的感情。

但决定权——依次发出命令。问题确实存在。我猜测的是,为什么一个陌生人的死亡会被体验为极其个人化的悲伤——以及为什么那些不参与其中的人会被视为心理缺陷。大多数公众人物都收到了这一信息:情感表达现在是无法满足的,甚至对某些特定情况也是如此。那些无法参与其中的人很快就会被孤立。

其他事情也在发生变化。有几件事需要做。2010年,72%的英格兰和威尔士居民将自己描述为"基督徒"。20年前,这一比例是10%,而如今只有37%。我们从"我们爱什么"和"我们看起来如何"中寻找意义——现在我们发现,甚至连"我们是谁"都在被重新定义。

基本上,我们越来越沉迷于自我。我们生活在一个世界里,这个世界需要我们的感受来验证自身。"我、我、我"已经从孩童的口头禅演变为"看看我"——这个"我"确实存在——再到"我无所不能,包括成为一个人"。

社交媒体是完美的放大器。在找到某些信息与广播之间,改变数据?曾经,当我写一篇文章吸引你时,你必须将其与自身对比。这在景观中是件好事,由任何人而非猎人编辑发布。现在你可以

指责我是狂热分子或自由主义者,通常是在教导段落中从同一表达中得出瞬间判断之前。社交媒体是什么样,其他人就是什么样。提供嫌疑人的爱,为其辩护,参与或暗示你无法跟上潮流——正如我最近发现的那样,当我质疑一名男子呼吁另一场温莎-蒙巴顿公开活动时可能走得太远。

它也将愤怒个性化。大多数营销是对他人悲伤的自恋式占有——我们无法仅仅为他人感到遗憾,必须将他们的悲剧据为己有。政治遵循同样的模式,以个人主义的掌声为特征。我们并非在同一法律下,对可能的不利后果给予应有的考量。

除非被授权者不采取行动。GNS最近发现,20%的6-20岁年轻人报告称自由幸福感,而70岁以上老人仅为4%。

国家快递(National Express)斥资3,000万英镑切断与西米德兰兹的合作,以避免特许经营模式并减轻纳税人负担

“笨蛋,问题出在经济”——首相对商界的主张面临两大考验:北海钻探与银行业战争

债券市场陷入火热 借贷成本飙升

政府债券收益率升至金融危机前水平 因担忧“不可持续”债务

作者:Sam Ping Chan

借贷成本已飙升至金融危机前的水平,各国政府正面临债务忧虑。

一系列日益恶化的因素——地缘冲突、34个行业无法避免的借贷狂潮以及通胀倒退——令30年期债券收益率升至20年来的高点2.2%(昨日),而10年期美国基准债务收益率也上涨至7%。

在英国,英国债务管理局表示,政府债券利率已升至2007年以来最高水平。英国政府发行了价值40亿英镑的国债,收益率为2.0%,为北岩银行倒闭前以来最高。

持续上升的债务成本令影子大臣约翰·希利头痛不已,他正准备在10月24日公布其市场预算案。

这一问题并非英国独有。日本借贷成本已达30年高位,而法国10年期国债收益率昨日也升至2009年以来最高水平。

布鲁金斯国际的罗宾·布鲁克斯表示,全球债券市场正“陷入火热”,投资者对各国政府控制债务的能力失去信心。“当你背负大量债务且预算赤字持续时,你将极易受到任何意外冲击的影响,”他说,“问题不在于冲击本身,而在于我们在全球范围内制定的财政政策。负责任的财政政策的好处从未如此显而易见。”

这位前国际货币基金组织经济学家警告称,英国、法国和日本等“债务高企且政治功能失调”的国家将“受到的打击比其他国家更严重”。

相比之下,瑞士和德国等更谨慎的国家受到的影响较小,但两国的借贷成本昨日仍有所上升。英国债务占GDP的比例已接近10%,而法国和日本的债务占比更高。

布鲁克斯表示,投资者正因债务缠身国家的政治和经济前景日益不确定,而对长期借贷要求更高溢价。

希利正在寻找方法以提振投资,但中东冲突推动的通胀与借贷成本已令其2.4 亿英镑m的缓冲资金消耗过半。

利用财政灵活性可能进一步推高借贷成本,并为公共财政带来更多压力。

Fathom Liberum英国首席经济学家西蒙·弗朗西斯表示:“这是对财政大臣使用财政灵活性增加借贷风险的警告。这可以做到,但代价高昂,且很可能将负担转嫁给后代。”

经济学家预测,通胀可能在今年年底接近8%,而目前尚不足8%。这将进一步加大公共财政压力,并推高置业成本。

英国央行已发出信号,利率需在更长时间内保持高位以维持34个月的通胀目标,这推动市场抬高了抵押贷款成本。

官方预测显示,美国债务将在本周达到$4.5(bitm)这一轨道,此前最高法院对唐纳德·特朗普大规模关税政策的裁决在其预算计划中造成了巨大缺口。

戴尔·文斯支持钻探…但斯特金不为所动

作者:汉斯·范吕文

戴尔·文斯敦促安迪·伯纳姆允许在北海进行更多石油和天然气钻探。

这位媒体能源企业家表示,他已向伯纳姆先生表示,争议已大有改观。他说,他已经领先于已获批的项目,但前提是石油和天然气采购需接受价格管控,以使这些变化比未经预防的情况更有意义。

在接受BBC知识频道采访时,这位工党成员表示:“未来几十年我们仍将使用化石燃料。这是现实。如果我们以不同的方式处理问题,实际上我们可以改变北海的局面。

“如果我们像管控零售能源行业那样对北海进行价格管控,我们实际上可以为未来节省资金,这将更有意义。”

文斯先生的立场明显转变,此前他曾表示允许北海新钻探“将是对数百万纳税人的背叛”,并质疑批准相关项目对英国财政部的财政收益。

但妮可拉·斯特金呼吁政界人士在气候变化政策上保持“清醒”,表示她不认为北海应开发新油井。

斯特金女士在爱丁堡国际图书节上发表讲话时与前芬兰总理唐娜·马林同台,强调英国绝对“不应让自己在气候变化问题上表现出软弱”。

唯一要做的就是坚持立场,并称其为“必要且大胆的举措”,她补充道:“我不会支持北海的新钻探项目。”

这关乎勇气,以及在面对短期阻力和不受欢迎局面时的勇气。

投资者必须就未来做出决定,并推动两个项目,这两个项目遭到强烈反对。

《每日电讯报》本周披露,伯纳姆先生正在考虑未来政策,并表示他已做出决定。相关石油和天然气项目的命运尚不明确。

文斯先生自2003年以来已向工党捐赠了400万英镑,他表示他曾告诉首相:“在双胞胎开始呼吸之前。”

90%的伦敦区未完成住房建设目标

作者:潘观满

在伦敦市长萨迪克·汗的领导下,伦敦在住房建设目标上进一步落后,这对工党的全国计划造成了打击。

根据最新公布的数据,去年伦敦各区有近90%未完成政府制定的新建住房目标。未完成目标的区比例从2023年的90%降至99%。

严重落后目标的区数量也有所增加——该目标衡量的是当地实际建成住房数量与预测需求量的差距。

截至2020年,伦敦近三分之二的市议会面临失去部分权力的风险。面临这一最严重问题的比例在2023年下降了逾三分之一。

贝利勋爵,伦敦市政厅多个团体的住房发言人,将这一糟糕表现归咎于汗市长的政策衰退,并表示过于严格的建筑商要求使得在伦敦建房变得极其困难。他说道:“多年来,市长通过媒体推动高额可负担住房要求,让建房变得困难重重,却又对开工和竣工数量下降感到惊讶。”

这一下滑趋势可能让工党在本届议会期间建造150万套住房的目标几乎无法实现。

去年,部长们曾介入试图扭转伦敦建筑业的颓势。2024年3月,政府向伦敦市提供了一笔2.5亿英镑的秘密资金,以帮助该市实现住房建设目标。

早期迹象显示,新政策迄今未见成效。今年第二季度,伦敦仅开工建设2,876套私人新建住房。

为实现每年98,000套住房的目标,伦敦需要每三个月开工建设22,000套住房。

贝利勋爵表示,政府的干预“应成为一次严肃的警示”。

萨伊德·伊斯兰将伦敦住房建设下滑归咎于高利率、建材成本上涨以及英国脱欧和疫情的影响。

然而,业界则将矛头指向市长的官僚主义,并声称过高的可负担住房要求使项目变得无利可图。

在2015年,伦敦市政厅、旺兹沃思区、威斯敏斯特区和哈罗区曾完成住房目标。伦敦的表现与1998-99年度的全国平均水平相去甚远。

政府方面已被联系寻求置评。

节约用水,泰晤士水务呼吁民众缩短淋浴时间

作者:尼尔森爵士

泰晤士水务公司敦促客户缩短淋浴时间,因其水库蓄水量低于正常水平,且正遭遇干旱。

该公司拥有1600万客户,在上月底伦敦地区水库蓄水量仅为7%,低于同期平均水平。

瑟南·伯斯伍德爵士表示水库蓄水量为93%,但同样低于平均水平,公司表示目前并未出现供水短缺。

泰晤士水务表示,客户需继续遵守7月23日实施的限水令,并呼吁民众通过其他方式节约用水。

泰晤士水务水务安全主管表示:“当前水库蓄水量低于预期水平,且需求持续高位,我们呼吁客户继续节约用水,仅使用必要用水。简单改变如缩短淋浴时间、关闭水龙头及避免非必要用水,均有助于减轻管网压力,同时我们的团队正夜以继日工作,以平衡供需。”

缺水地区已覆盖英格兰75.3%的面积。热浪也导致用水需求激增。泰晤士水务表示,伦敦及泰晤士河谷地区在7月高温天气中每日较正常多消耗约1亿升水。

专家警告称,尽管未来数日有降雨预测,但要使水库蓄水量恢复正常仍需多个工作周。

泰晤士水务表示,自3月以来,降雨量仅为长期平均水平的40%。

异常干燥的春夏季已引发进一步限水措施的担忧。

美国战略石油储备已降至1982年以来最低水平,有分析人士警告,若俄乌冲突持续,油价可能飙升。

特朗普政府上周释放了550万桶石油,以防止冲突推高油价并冲击美国经济。

美国战略石油储备目前仅剩20.14亿桶,但并非所有人都认可白宫的做法。

然而,美国政府从得州及路易斯安那州地下储油洞释放的紧急储备,对抑制油价收效甚微。

布伦特原油昨日涨至每桶30便士,为当月最高。

特朗普周一对记者表示,“整个国家”应介入该冲突,因其已阻断全球约五分之一的石油供应,而10国集团需在未达成协议的情况下建立“真正”的石油供应。

交易员担心布伦特海峡局势将进一步消耗全球石油库存,可能令油价急剧上涨,甚至超过1982年冲突期间接近1000的高点。

国际能源署数据显示,7月全球石油供应较去年减少约460万桶。

需求虽有所下降,但仅降至估计的每日7400万桶。英国新增全球石油投资应再增加1000万桶。自7.4以来,全球库存已减少160万桶,占总供应量的1.6%。部分布伦特海峡局势通常占全球石油和天然气供应的五分之一。

放弃"净零"目标"每年可为家庭节省540英镑"

英国应建造新一代燃气发电站——凯米·巴登诺赫如是说

作者:乔纳森·莱斯利

放弃工党的"净零"目标或可为典型英国家庭每年节省540英镑——凯米·巴登诺赫如是声称。

今日一项由保守党领袖支持的研究显示,废除苏格兰风电场及其输电系统建设可在2030年至2050年间节省5,200亿英镑——这些经济收益将回流至家庭。

相反,英国应在英格兰用电需求最大的地区建造新一代燃气和核电站——该报告由智库委员会发布。

前工党能源大臣埃德·米德兰德曾将风电定位为其2030年实现90%电力系统脱碳目标的核心组成部分。

但巴登诺赫女士表示:"英国需要一项应对气候变化的严肃计划。制定政策必须看重实效,而非仅设目标并事后自我庆祝。

"当前净零目标推高了能源成本,削弱了工业基础,并令科学研究依赖能源进口。

"我们的计划意味着利用北海自有油气资源,降低能源账单中的不必要成本,并支持能为家庭和企业提供廉价、清洁、充足能源的核能与可再生能源。"

她的言论引发了新任能源大臣马丁·法恩博尔的回应。

法恩博尔表示,巴登诺赫的计划将令英国"重回化石燃料过山车,并抬高家庭账单"。

"向前进"(Onward)是一家总部位于威斯敏斯特的中右翼智库,其委托行业咨询公司Truman Energy进行该研究。该分析将米德兰德的净零计划与另一条侧重低成本、脱碳率仅为90%的替代路径进行了对比。

报告作者埃德·赫克特表示,此类转变意味着削减风电场扩张,转而提升英国现有50座燃气电站的规模,并在英国南部主要新建此类电站。

英国目前约有35吉瓦(GW)燃气发电装机容量,而需求研究显示这一数字应提升至400GW。

超过半数英国55座燃气电站机组使用年限已超过20年,因此该计划还需对现有设施进行重建或替换,并新建其他电站。此建议颇具争议,可能引发政府与绿色组织的强烈反对。

5,200亿英镑

据研究,若在2030年至2050年间放弃净零计划,可节省的金额

该计划将克服脱碳成本的最大障碍——即需大规模扩建输电网络,以将远北风电场与英格兰用电需求巨大的城市相连,预计成本为1,250亿英镑。

影子能源大臣克莱尔·库廷乔表示:"这是迄今为止对英国电力系统成本进行的最详尽测算。

"这项研究完成了我在政府任内启动的工作——埃德·米德兰德所谓的‘真实成本核算’,表明若将系统全成本计入,可再生能源并非更廉价。"

然而,其他政策组织仍坚称风电是最廉价的低成本能源方式。

能源UK政策总监亚当·伯曼表示,扩大燃气发电规模并非明智之选:"能源行业——我们的成员——一致认为,可再生能源、核能与储能是构建低成本能源系统的最佳选择。"

英国家庭UK政策总监安·芒特表示,到2030年,英国现有核电与燃气发电机组的150GW装机容量将因机组老化而消失。"

首相的公交计划令西密德兰背负3000 万英镑m账单

作者:克里斯托弗·贾斯珀

地方公交车转由公共部门运营的计划令西密德兰地区背负3000 万英镑m账单,原因是私营运营商决定退出该地区。

首相昨日赞扬了一项将数百条公交线路、1,600辆公交车及一系列车库的所有权从现有运营商国民快递(National Express)移交至西密德兰联合管理局(WMCA)的举措。该管理局由工党护士理查德·帕克领导。

此举是伯纳姆先生在全国推广的新"公交特许经营"模式的一部分,旨在让地方官员对公交网络拥有更多控制权。然而,西密德兰联合管理局为此向国民快递支付了2400 万英镑m,并在未来三年内再支付550 万英镑m,以接管基础设施并规划网络运营。

在对伯纳姆先生的新特许经营模式感到"畏缩"后,国民快递决定与西密德兰地区切断联系——该公司已在当地运营公交业务40年。

该管理局由七个

"当我表示要将权力重新交还地方社区之手时,这正是我的本意"

意识到自身已濒临破产的伯明翰市(2021年宣布破产)也将从国民快递接管7900 万英镑m的养老金债务。

伯纳姆先生将此次交易誉为地区化公共服务的"里程碑",并证明"9x30 North"计划在支持地方领导方面的作用。

他在伍尔弗汉普顿公交站表示:"这里的公交服务曾濒临崩溃。我们需要立即采取行动以确保短期服务不致中断。

"但从长远来看,我们正在构建一个完全由公共部门控制的模式,让民众充分享受其带来的好处。当我表示要将权力重新交还地方社区之手时,这正是我的本意。"

英国首相府的一份声明未提及此次交易的成本或养老金债务的转移。

首相一直是"公交特许经营"制度的积极倡导者,该制度于2017年推出,并通过在伦敦以外地区实施某些广告限制(对私营部门构成障碍)。

伯纳姆先生在担任曼彻斯特市长期间,曾推动将公交特许经营扩展至伦敦以外地区,并创建了免费的Metrolink网络。

伯纳姆应为糟糕的就业数据担忧

《每日电讯报》记者埃玛·塔加特撰文称,在经历一波乐观情绪后,最新失业数据可能会给首相带来毁灭性打击

英国国家统计局(ONS)发布了最新就业市场数据。麦克法登在最新报告中称失业率连续第7个月下降

然而,对就业与商业大臣而言,这并非多数经济学家所期望的结果

1.9个百分点的增长数据显示,失业率并未如预期般降至4.9%,而是在截至当前的三个月内保持稳定,一周后仍为4.9%

麦克法登将今年第一季度与第二季度的失业率进行对比,期间失业率从3%小幅上升至4.9%。多数经济学家则关注滚动三个月平均值这一标准指标

这位就业与商业大臣正竭力为就业数据描绘积极画面,尽管经济学研究所(Institute of Economic Affairs)将其称为"应有之义"

虽然滚动三个月平均值持平,但月度数据仍透露出另一番景象。数据显示,失业率从4.0%急剧上升至3.8%,再至5.4%

这是3.7年来最大的月度增幅,将失业率推至自2020年10月以来的最高水平——彼时英国正处于疫情之中

经济学家詹姆斯·史密斯表示:"面向消费者的行业——酒店业和零售业——一直在持续裁员,且裁员速度似乎正在加快"

月度失业率的急剧上升恰逢能源价格冲击引发的成本上涨,迫使更多企业削减员工

英国建筑业也在缩减员工数量,商业报告显示其业务活动和新工程需求均有所下降

根据第二季度数据,英国建筑业的商业活动自2020年1月以来持续下滑

ONS数据显示,自年初以来私营部门就业显著疲软,公共部门就业人数增长则令问题更趋严重

整体就业增长下降超过2.0,但这一月度数据反映了更广泛的结构性变化

私营部门自年初以来已录得30,000个职位流失,降幅达5.0%

失业率在工党执政期间持续攀升

img-83.jpeg

公共部门薪资增长超越私营部门

img-84.jpeg

面向消费者的行业持续裁员,且裁员趋势恶化

相比之下,同期公共部门就业人数增加了42,000人,自1月以来增长0.4%。首席经济学家马丁·贝克回应称:"除去头条数字,公私部门间的差距依然显著,公共部门继续为就业和薪资增长提供大部分支撑"

与许多私营企业不同,英国公务员自疫情以来生产率持续低迷

即便如此,公务员薪资仍已超越私营部门。最新数据显示,私营部门薪资增长在截至6月的三个月内放缓至2.8%,而公共部门员工薪资则录得5.1%的增幅

这背离了生产率趋势——多位经济学家曾警告称,在经历近20年增长乏力后,英国今年可能陷入低生产率时期。但若公共部门就业持续膨胀并压倒私营部门,这一希望恐将破灭

有关就业前景的负面报道不断,预示着情况在今年结束前可能进一步恶化。截至7月的三个月内,职位空缺降至707,000个,较上一季度减少6,000个,创五年来最低水平

ONS经济统计主任林·麦基翁表示,该

latest drop was driven by smaller businesses cutting hiring as their operating costs rose.

Computers, particularly those in the hospitality and retail sector, have repeatedly warned that they have been left with no choice but to cut recruitment or make redundancies in response to inflation-biasing increases to the minimum wage.

Nancy Thurs, the economist director of the Institute of Chartered Accountants in England and Wales, said the decline is "a 'red flag' for the jobs market."

迪士尼起诉特朗普政府侵犯言论自由

作者:詹姆斯·沃灵顿

DDNetV 已就白宫与媒体之间不断升级的争端,对特朗普政府提起诉讼。

这家媒体巨头及其 ABC 分部已提起诉讼,指控唐纳德·特朗普政府的媒体监管机构对美国媒体发起“煽动性运动”。

美国联邦通信委员会(FCC)下令迪士尼提前开始电视广播许可证续期流程。监管机构还对 ABC 一档脱口秀节目《The First》展开调查,同时官员们一直在对美国媒体的多样性、公平性和包容性进行长期审查。

在诉讼中,迪士尼敦促法官阻止提前续期许可证,并将其描述为对新闻自由的攻击。

公司律师指控 FCC 试图报复拒绝“屈从于政府要求”的媒体网络。

迪士尼另行申请临时限制令和初步禁令,指控 FCC 发动“对言论自由的非凡攻击”。

在诉讼中,迪士尼声称特朗普政府试图恐吓媒体行业的其余 70 家公司。“ABC 是显而易见的目标,遭受最直接的伤害,但信息针对的是全国每一家广播公司,最终成本由整个新闻界承担,”诉状中写道。

这标志着媒体集团与特朗普政府之间长期冲突的最新升级,起因于白宫试图收紧对媒体的控制。

特朗普此前曾多次抨击美国广播公司,包括 ABC 在内,并就其“消除”行为向其索取数百万美元的和解金。新闻集团已开始反击。去年,30% 的美国媒体向政府发起诉讼,称其资金削减侵犯了《宪法第一修正案》权利。英国广播公司(BBC)也选择对特朗普政府提起诉讼,后者试图通过《Fanswona》一集强行索取总统的个人文件和财务记录。与迪士尼的争端正值 11 月中期选举前民意支持率下滑之际。

美国总统多次批评迪士尼旗下的 ABC 网络,指责其“教授大学”立场。由特朗普盟友布伦丹·卡尔领导的 FCC 随即对该公司施加压力,暗示可能以“1983 年违规”为由终止其许可。

去年,这场争端因深夜脱口秀主持人吉米·基梅尔指责特朗普及其支持者试图从查理·柯克(一名右翼网红)的遇刺中获利而达到高潮。

基梅尔节目一度被下架,在共和党人反对声中,数日后又被恢复播出。

今年 4 月,争端再次爆发,因基梅尔称梅拉尼娅·特朗普第一夫人“缺乏预期价值”。

此番言论发生在白宫记者协会晚宴被枪手试图闯入前数日。特朗普声称基梅尔的言论是“煽动暴力”。

基梅尔则表示这只是一个“对总统与其妻子年龄差异的轻松玩笑”。

广播许可证通常每八年续期一次,迪士尼的许可证据称原计划到 2020 年才需续期。

FCC 发言人表示:“所有广播公司都有法律义务在公共利益下运营——迪士尼也不例外。显然,迪士尼对 FCC 的程序感到非常担忧,这从其持续的虚假信息运动以及决定要求法院阻止 FCC 进一步调查的行为中可见一斑。”

M&S销售激增,成英国增长最快的食品零售商

作者:汤姆·海因斯

玛莎百货(M&S)被评为英国增长最快的食品零售商,因为其夏季销售额大幅增长。

根据零售分析师数据,在截至8月10日的12周内,M&S食品销售额同比增长10.9%,远超竞争对手。

M&S的增长被视为今年夏天最后一波销售浪潮的体现。在截至6月的12周内,食品杂货支出同比增长11.9%,随后12周继续上涨,增长率为自2023年5月以来的最高水平。

今年M&S已斥资200万英镑削减65种日常产品价格,以提升其在消费者中的渗透率。

M&S大幅降低了多款产品价格,如过滤器从1.50英镑降至4.50英镑,并进一步削减员工薪酬。

英国超市还受益于冷冻食品销售激增,购物者转向更便捷的烹饪选择。

冷冻食品销售增长2.0%,指状食品增长15.2%,即食食品增长16.8%,速食食品增长15.5%。

M&S自称是"挑剔食客的无可争议之选"。

M&S的夏季增长率远超其他零售超市和食品杂货商。紧随其后的是新鲜食品领域的业务,销售额增长10.1%。

Trocera销售增长1.8%,Sumacra增长5.3%,Maristone增长1.8%,M&S增长1.3%,全线销售增长8.1%。

昔日英国主要超市A&H却遭遇销售下滑,降幅达6.2%。这家陷入困境的食品零售商自2024年3月以来未实现销售增长,尽管其秘书Allan Leighton推动降价策略试图扭转颓势。

最新数据仍显示出改善迹象,此前A&H销售额下滑1.1%。其市场份额也从去年的8.1%微增至8.1%。

但A&H仍远落后于Trocera和Sumacra,后两者分别占据27.6%和15.1%的食品杂货支出份额。M&S仅以10.5%的份额位列第三。


迈克·阿什利加强对雨果博斯的控制

作者:汤姆·海因斯

迈克·阿什利的Finance集团已建立近50%的雨果博斯股份,在未能成功收购这家德国时尚品牌后继续扩大影响力。

在股东同意向阿什利零售帝国出售雨果博斯公司额外17.6%股份后,Finance集团进一步增持。

此前Finance集团在6月提出收购其未持有的剩余股份,报价为每股454.1.2.2.1英镑,估值200万英镑。

该收购提议遭雨果博斯董事会拒绝,后者称报价低估了公司价值及前景,但Finance集团周二表示已获得少数股东接受。

此次增持使阿什利的零售帝国几乎实现对雨果博斯的完全控制,并对欧洲知名时尚集团的未来发展产生重大影响。

Finance集团自2020年开始增持雨果博斯股份,今年早些时候超过30%阈值,触发德国法律下对剩余业务的强制收购。

“激进戴夫”在吉尼斯裁员2,000人

作者:汤姆·海因斯

吉尼斯的母公司在去年裁减了近2,000个职位,时任首席执行官戴夫·刘易斯爵士(外号“激进戴夫”)大幅削减开支。

Dinges集团(同时生产沃克威士忌)截至6月财年末员工总数较上年下降4%,至27,800名全职员工,较一年前的28,000人减少1,922人。

Dinges集团昨日在年度报告中未披露具体裁员数量,但披露去年在生产支付方面投入了5.0mn英镑,高于去年的8.0m英镑。

素有“激进戴夫”之称的刘易斯因其激进的成本削减策略而在商界闻名,他于今年1月接手Dinges集团后启动了重大改革计划。

改革措施包括通过精简数字化部门、总部及全球各区域和本地团队等举措,寻求每年节省10m英镑的年度平均成本。

改革任务极为艰巨。Dinges集团去年营收下滑3%,至320.0bn英镑;营业利润暴跌27%,至45.2bn英镑。

现年65岁的刘易斯因在Tracy公司任职期间(2014年至2020年)的成本削减举措而获得“激进戴夫”绰号。其间,他关闭多家工厂并大幅裁员,以挽救公司业绩。

在Dinges集团,他并未公布此次改革计划中将裁减的具体职位数量。

若改革在明年成功实施,刘易斯爵士有望获得4.2bn英镑的年度薪酬。根据Dinges集团拟议的新薪酬政策,其基本年薪为1.5m英镑,奖金最高可达2m英镑,长期激励股份价值最高达6.7bn英镑。在其担任首席执行官的上半财年,他已获得3.4bn英镑的薪酬(含1,000英镑奖金)。其中三分之一的奖金将被延期支付,分摊至近六年。

刘易斯爵士表示,削减开支将使Dinges集团能够投资于更具增长潜力的品牌,而非仅通过削减利润来进行投资。

“每个集团的产能都将是吉尼斯的两倍。”他于本月初表示。

工党必须通过两项重大经济考验

img-37505805.jpeg

政府的公共部门慷慨政策必须得到编码——因此所有人都将目光投向北海石油与伦敦金融城

自诩为一位广义上亲商的首相面临着未来数月的重要考验。

其中一项决定是是否批准罗斯班克及其三个北海油气田投入开发。

首先,这涉及到超过六倍于现有产量的石油与天然气。若经济增长是首要任务,本沙姆确实会进一步推进,并像挪威那样开发其剩余储量。但这不会发生,因此我们只能满足于罗斯班克及其三个油田。

通过延长北海油田的开发寿命,本沙姆不仅满足了其公开呼吁与税收需求,而且——与环保主义者部长的主张相反——有助于以更安全、更少破坏性的方式实现向全面绿色经济的过渡。

在最近的一篇文章中,英国前能源大臣豪厄尔勋爵指出

北海将新增11个新钻井中心和 / 或建设项目,以及多达71个新增工作岗位——所有这些都需要大量电力——仅满足新增电力需求就已极具挑战性。考虑到现有能源消耗的巨大规模,选择增加如此之多的电力供应同样困难。

风能和太阳能的供应潜力有限,因此电力必然需要通过新建发电厂与新增和现有天然气发电厂的组合来满足。"我们需要从北海开发的每一桶天然气——以及进口的石油与粮食——来填补需求缺口,"豪厄尔勋爵表示。

那么,到底该如何抉择?是选择气候变化缓解措施所强加的严格限制与高成本要求,还是采取务实的、常识导向的方法,以更少破坏性的方式实现向绿色未来的过渡?

另一项考验是:是否要面对银行业更高税收以资助政府各项支出优先事项,还是顺应伦敦金融城的开放呼声,将其视为单纯的税收富矿。

迄今为止,金融城的游说已成功避免了这一威胁,但随着新首相上任,新一轮攻势随之而来。银行正在获得可观利润,部分原因在于它们通过持有央行负债获得的利息收入——为何不从中拿出一些回馈社会?

原因在于:这被称为"扼杀下金蛋的鹅"。虽然这本身并非犯罪行为,却会进一步增加伦敦作为国际资本首选之地的累积成本清单。

伦敦金融城持续的特点之一是,政府至少在这里认识到金融城对经济与税收的重要性,并据此放宽对银行的监管。

拐点总是难以在事前识别,但我的感觉是,我们正在接近这样一个时刻

这曾是一种默契:金融城将为工党的社会目标买单,作为交换,金融城将被允许在很大程度上为所欲为。

到那时,曾为大英帝国提供动力的伟大工业引擎早已衰落。取而代之的是金融业成为英国的主导经济力量,在撒切尔时代的资本市场改革与全球化国际经济的推动下,伦敦金融城成为服务于这一需求的核心。

同样在美国,以及在欧洲,大多数欧洲银行选择将其资本市场业务集中于伦敦,远离母国政府的束缚。

作为一种工业战略,它确实在创造财富的同时也付出了代价,但某种程度上它奏效了。直到它不再奏效。2004年,整个体系

政府的现金储备已告枯竭。伦敦最终从2004年全球金融危机的灾难中恢复,但始终未能真正恢复昔日荣光。

转折点总是难以在事后识别,但依我之见,当前我们距离这样的转折点已相当接近。诚然,这种说法在伦敦已被多次提及——特别是在欧盟全民公投之后——但迄今为止,所有关于伦敦将陷入衰退的预言均未成真。

自那以来,欧洲各金融中心的就业岗位数量已减少到如此之少,以至于再也没有人试图追踪它们,甚至连昔日广为人知的艺术品也无处可寻。

与此同时,欧盟委员会已几乎放弃其将欧元计价利率互换业务清算迁回巴黎和法兰克福的决心。倘若伦敦被禁止开展此类业务,欧洲银行将不会将业务转移至欧洲其他金融中心,而是选择纽约——与伦敦不同,纽约已被指定为“回流”目的地以满足监管要求。伦敦在与欧盟的谈判中已被边缘化,而正是那些未能理解英国同行为何能如此轻易地令本国产业陷入衰退的欧洲谈判代表,令其处境雪上加霜。

据报道,该行业对日益高涨的不满声浑然不觉,而其回应也不过是约翰逊式的敷衍了事。

然而,你能推动事物发展的空间终究有限,银行附加税或许就是那根压垮骆驼的最后一根稻草。

人们曾认为伦敦能够自行应对挑战,事实证明这一看法大体正确。

但不幸的是,你能推动事物发展的空间同样有限,若再施加过度压力,整个机制终将崩溃——而银行附加税虽在整体规模上并不算大,却可能成为压垮骆驼的最后一根稻草。

这一税率并非由1993年保守党政府从6%降至3%以恢复失去的税收竞争力,但即便如此,伦敦的整体税率仍高于欧洲平均水平。诚然,银行在近年大幅缩减了对中小企业的贷款规模,但问题并非需求不足,而是供给不足。姐妹公司的经验告诉我们,TMB2已无法触及伦敦失去的资金。

银行可通过大规模放贷来纠正这一局面,但自2004年以来,监管约束令此类“追求增长”的资产负债表扩张举步维艰,几乎无一例外以失败告终。

无论如何,若政府的目标是刺激信贷扩张,那么在伦敦股市几乎无需营销即已濒临终结之际,这一进一步收紧经济的举措,只会成为压垮伦敦的最后一根稻草——不仅因其释放出英国正背离其核心优势的信号,更因其令首都陷入辩论。

1993年数据显示,截至6月底的三个月内,私营部门薪资增长已放缓至勉强跟上通胀水平的地步——而另一方面,公共部门薪资增长仍在持续侵蚀其他领域。

政府还能让伦敦的从业者为其公共开支买单多久?对于金融业而言,更好的机会在别处随处可见。

中国正在谋求全球食品生产的主导权与完全自主权

北京的第十五个五年计划将集中一切国家力量,使蛋白质生产与国防并重

中国正准备对全球粮食供应链做出改变——其对世界能源与交通系统已实现的举措,将在食品领域重现。

该国正在运作一项实质性的全球蛋白质量产主导计划,并将其纳入第十五个五年计划,以确保进口并保障民众免受气候变化长期风险的影响。

第十五个五年计划投入150亿,动员一切金融与国家力量突破土地与水资源限制,将粮食安全提升至与国防同等的生存战略高度。

在其进入新时代之际,中共正在激活此前用于能源、电池、水资源减排、核聚变、量子计算及植树造林的同一计划蓝本,目标是在15年内从零起步将市场份额提升至5.7%或更高——其在多个产业领域已显现出的发展模式。

中国正在研发转基因食品与作物,同时瞄准细胞农业等新兴产业,如培养蛋白质与发酵食品。数百家本土企业正在追赶成熟技术。

在2020年代至2040年代,这场蛋白质革命将改变中国人的饮食结构,并提升全球获取蛋白质的便利性。

据估计,中国50%的鱼类消费与40%的乳制品将来自不受季节性限制的工业化生产,如实验室奶制品产业。

该国领导层长期以来一直在应对粮食价格波动风险。

中国拥有全球10%的人口、3%的可耕地和4%的淡水资源——其中部分已被氮污染。

第十五个五年计划的市场部门正在推动全球霸权,而未来15个国家的粮食安全问题已迫在眉睫。中国农业面临的气候变化威险正在加速。

该国正在迅速布局未来食品,以应对2030年代可能出现的三重疾病危机。

在北京东北部以"粉色桃花"闻名的粉色桃花谷,一股"全能农民"与技术浪潮正在涌现。这里被誉为中国的第二个硅谷,是一个农业科技中心,与城市另一侧的数字技术枢纽——布里安相呼应。

长江三角洲与广东省正在建设其他专业氨基酸生产中心。

这表明中国正从传统种植向协同式工业生态系统转变。这种地理集群模式与太阳能制造及电动汽车产业在规模化前期的发展模式如出一辙。

粉色桃花谷服务中心已开始从微藻中商业化生产蛋白质,并生产EPA脂肪酸、藻油及用于蛋白棒和谷物的对氨基苯甲酸。

气候变化将如何侵蚀全球粮食产量仍是持续争论的话题。此前,二氧化碳的"施肥效应"因光合作用加速与蒸腾作用减弱而被视为增产利好。

但去年一项涵盖20个国家的研究得出结论:我们已跨越临界点,二氧化碳的增产效益正在消退,而热浪与营养成分降解带来的损失却在加剧。来自美欧中三地的科学家在一项简化研究中得出结论:即使采取适应性措施,到2050年全球作物产量仍可能比预期低1%。但这一影响尚无定论,且压力可能非线性增长。

中国尖端实验室要想在赶上荷兰瓦赫宁根"食品谷"——全球领导的农业科技中心——还有很长的路要走,但荷兰人最近却因

中国力图在食品科技领域复制其在太阳能和电动汽车方面的成功

img-92.jpeg

我们所有创新的欧盟国家正在推动欧洲食品技术的入侵流亡。其中几个正在将大豆的收获提前至前收获阶段。

中国目前在前沿生物科学方面仍有所不足,但他们可以凭借庞大的工业规模和国家指导的信贷来弥补。系统性思维认为这可能会压低资源和国际系统的成本,更快实现"价格平价",比普遍认为的要更早。

其中一个例子是更便宜的市场食品,其价值几乎势不可挡,正如去年全球新增净电力的50%(2020年)来自太阳能和电动汽车。

当然,食品并非普通商品。它关乎文化认同和烹饪传统,深深植根于我们的大脑回路。因此,让我尝试从个人品味出发进行一些新的分析。

在我的农场里,我们饲养肉牛和奶牛,这群牛来自一个放牧的牛群,长期以来远离化学污染物,想吃什么就吃什么。

我们从未接触过现代超市货架上那些被认为是"食品"的产品。但大量民众将这些产品视为生活方式的一部分,我怀疑他们甚至不会注意蛋白质或牛奶是通过自然发酵还是合成工艺制成的。

有多少人会察觉到"少化学"的碳水化合物、蛋白质或脂质开始占到天然食品的10%,然后是20%?比如一块鱿鱼丸或鱼饼?

根据经验法则,生产10%的食物能量、10%的游离水和10%的脂肪需要从之前的10%提升至20%的行业水平。这不是我偏好的饮品。

但这可能比用谷物饲料喂养的奶牛所产的奶更糟——这些奶牛从出生到死亡都在工业化棚舍中度过,几乎没有放牧,在中国或美国的空间中过着悲惨的生活。

中国在2016年以前还是净出口国,但在转向单一蛋白质饮食后,婴儿配方奶粉依赖进口谷物喂养牲畜。

如今,中国的需求支撑了西半球大豆产业的繁荣,吸收了阿根廷大豆出口的80%(2020年数据)。中国是拉丁美洲最大的粮食进口国之一,每年进口粮食10小时。中国的粮食赤字已达8000公顷(2200平方英里)。

这些数字即将大幅下降。该国正在全面推进粮食自给自足,将种植边界向北推进120英里,深入北京沙漠,种植改良作物。

它正在学习:100万公顷的盐碱地正被改造成耕地。在经历了数十年的忽视后,当地"土地修复战略"终于让农民将土地视为珍贵资源,而非廉价劳动力输送到城市。

但农业科技的真正王牌在于其潜力:以低廉价格涌入全球南方(不仅仅是南方)的蛋白质市场,并深刻改变世界粮食贸易的格局。

我们读者或许更愿意坚持有机设备、草饲安格斯牛肉和用面粉烤制的面包——没人会阻止我们,感谢人类。但大多数人想要的是更便宜的食物。

“我放弃大学机会,选择成为皇家骑兵团的铁匠”

随着工党推动军队招募,尤安·史密斯表示他更喜欢工作而非学生生活 撰文:诺亚·伊斯特伍德

尤安·史密斯从小就知道自己总有一天会加入军队。和许多军人一样,他出身军人家庭,16岁时辍学参军。十年后的今天,他丝毫不后悔这一决定。

史密斯不仅获得了与许多校友同等的资质,如今还能免费居住在伦敦市中心,并有机会在无需背负巨额债务的情况下攻读大学学位。对于这位正在接受为期三年培训、学习如何照料皇家骑兵团战马的学徒工匠来说,军旅生活相比大学有着明显优势。

“根本不需要我自己出钱,一切都包了,”他说道,“这对我来说更舒适、更可持续。”

军队学徒工资起薪为每年2.5 万英镑,并能为日后高薪岗位敞开大门。例如,一名陆军下士在完成培训后五年内,薪资有望达到约4 万英镑。

英国国防部是全国最大的学徒雇主。据官方数据,截至2026年3月,武装部队共有20,800个学徒岗位,其中超过70%的学徒年龄在8至21岁。在这些学徒中,近11,000人分布在科学、技术、工程和数学等关键领域。

工党计划通过将更多9至2.8岁的年轻人纳入军队,以缓解英国的青年失业危机。

对于史密斯而言,军旅生活的好处不难发现,因为他的父亲托马斯·史密斯曾在皇家电气与机械工程兵团服役24年。

但政府若要实现目标,必须说服成千上万与军队毫无渊源的年轻人入伍。在这个年龄段,有超过100万人处于未就业或未接受教育状态,为12年来最高水平。安迪·伯纳姆表示,在其出任首相后,建立最强大的军队将是其首要任务之一。

史密斯在皇家骑兵卫队完成了“有组织服务”培训,该部队具有双重职能:在仪式场合担任骑兵卫队,并准备在战场上参与突袭行动。这使他能够广泛出访,足迹遍及近十几个国家,包括英国、塞浦路斯、伯利兹、德国、摩洛哥和波兰。

他的许多同学后来都接受了高等教育。但史密斯在25岁左右就已建立职业生涯,他认为年轻时入伍是正确的选择。“我不后悔没有选择平民方式发展。”

转行攻读学位仍是一个可选项。陆军运行一项计划,无偿提供学位学习机会。此外,还有另一套累积多年服务学分的学习体系,可用于获取资格证书。这意味着士兵在服役期间无偿获得学位,与英格兰地区毕业生平均学生债务超过5.5 万英镑形成鲜明对比。

史密斯表示,在他看来,这份工作的最大益处在于它带来的自豪感。“除了任何学徒制培训外,它还具有仪式团体的性质。我有归属感与荣誉感。”

他希望在陆军度过一生,并最终获得与动物科学相关的学位。“陆军的伟大之处在于,一旦完成学徒培训,我就能寻求高等教育。这不一定要与金融相关,也可以是其他领域。”

苏格兰企业加大AI技能投资

研究发现,超过半数的苏格兰企业计划在未来一年加大对AI技能的投资。

苏格兰银行最新发布的商业晴雨表显示,54%的苏格兰企业计划增加投资,以提升员工技能,以保持竞争力。

在增加投资的企业中,约三分之一(10%)预计将投入3 万英镑至50 万英镑,而28%预计将投入50 万英镑至25 万英镑。

个人破产案例激增27%,债务压力攀升

英国破产服务局(Insolvency Service)数据显示,与去年同期相比,2025年7月个人自愿安排(IVA)登记数量激增27%。

英格兰和威尔士地区7月共登记7,462例IVA,较2024年7月增长27%。IVA是一种个人破产形式,债务人与债权人达成协议分摊债务。报告指出:“除2025年12月外,这是自2022年11月以来IVA登记数量最高的月份。”

九成成年人使用远程银行服务

英国金融业协会(UK Finance)数据显示,2025年,超过九成(90%)的英国成年人至少使用一种在线、移动或电话银行服务。

该比例较2014年的64%有所上升。英国金融业协会在其2025年支付市场报告中表示,移动银行仍是最受欢迎的选择,三分之二(67%)的成年人使用移动银行。现金使用量去年为845,预计未来十年将进一步减少,但“不会消失”。

埃迪·理查森

臭名昭著的伦敦黑帮分子,伦敦地下世界的恐怖统治者

埃迪·理查森(Eddie Richardson)于65岁时去世。他是一名臭名昭著的伦敦黑帮分子,与其兄长查理一起在伦敦地下世界留下了残暴的印记。在服刑期间,他通过观察其他囚犯绘画,学会了绘画技艺,出狱后成为了一名才华横溢的艺术家。

查理的名声更为显赫,但埃迪实际上比其兄长更为残忍。他以对竞争对手施加暴力而闻名。两人共同在伦敦东区建立了一个臭名昭著的犯罪团伙。

理查森兄弟的犯罪活动涵盖敲诈勒索、保护费和放高利贷等领域。那些胆敢与他们作对的人,会被带到兄弟俩夜总会的地下室接受惩罚。惩罚手段包括用钳子拔牙、用钻石戒指割伤皮肉,甚至使用一种名为“黑盒子”的刑具——一个带把手的盒子,通电后能释放强烈的电击。这种刑具曾导致一名抢劫犯死亡,但理查森兄弟也用它来“修复”受害者。

理查森兄弟最为臭名昭著的暴行发生在1963年7月,当时一名男子在一次严重的殴打后出现在媒体面前。他声称自己从未被酷刑折磨过,并被迫擦拭地板上的血迹。

“在1960年代,我从未被视为罪犯,但到了1967年,埃迪·理查森却被视为恶棍,主持了多次酷刑审判,犯下了无法弥补的罪行。而他的兄长查理则因其他罪行正在服刑。埃迪·理查森因办公室犯罪已被判处五年徒刑,但他为兄长减轻了10项指控,使其罪行看似不那么严重。1957年,他甚至在伦敦南部开办了一家成功的金属回收公司。

实际上,理查森兄弟早在1960年代就开始从事合法的废品回收业务,并以此掩盖其犯罪活动。他们还在伦敦南部经营非法赌博业务。埃迪还涉足色情杂志、脱衣舞表演、电影和保护费业务。

理查森兄弟的犯罪生涯最终在1964年3月走向终结。当时,在伦敦东南部的一场武装冲突中,一名对手被当场击毙,理查森本人也因枪伤被送往医院,随后被逮捕。正是这次事件让他最终锒铛入狱。

爱德华·乔治·理查森(Edward George Richardson)于1936年1月29日出生于伦敦南部的坎伯韦尔,是家中四个孩子中的老二。他的母亲经营一家由祖母创办的糖果烟草店,家境虽然贫困,但母亲坚韧不拔。

第二次世界大战期间,埃迪和兄长被疏散到苏格兰的帕德尔索恩。他们被安置在三名中年男子家中,兄弟俩经常遭到殴打和虐待。当他们试图逃回伦敦时,被当地警察抓获并遣返,随后遭到严厉惩罚,每天被鞭打并关禁闭一周。

当母亲发现其中一个食品包裹被没收后,立即将年幼的埃迪接回伦敦,而让查理留在当地医院康复。

在查理的影响下,埃迪经常与警察发生冲突。由于自幼在伦敦地下世界长大,他对学业毫无兴趣,但正是在那里,他对拳击产生了浓厚兴趣。

At 11 to 16, he began a college in prison. He was expelled for being a disruptive influence and for taking a job with the London firm.

Eddie Richardson, whose exhibition of his paintings was in 1983 and, with his Rolls-Royce, in 1983.

Bored, he started as a porter at Winston-Hatton, but it did not last.

Instead he joined Charlie in the family firm, dealing in scrap metal full time, and it was Eddie who quit when Charlie was called up for National Service in 1946. One of Charlie's appearances only eight months later, Eddie seemed to escape from his brother's shadow despite frequent sparring matches. When his own National Service papers arrived, Eddie dodged the call, claiming he was educationally unfit.

Meanwhile, posing as a pupil, Eddie had established himself as the "King of the Tonk" in Camberwell, having seen off the incumbent in a knife fight.

When the brothers moved their scrap business round the corner, it was Eddie who converted the vacated building into a drinking club. In the basement of these premises。

盖伊·斯科特

这位英国血统的赞比亚政治家是自弗雷德里克·威廉·德克勒克之后非洲首位白人国家元首

盖伊·斯科特,享年62岁,是一位在后殖民时代非洲担任助理的政治家。他于2014年10月在赞比亚爱德华七世杂志去世后,短暂担任该国备受争议的第一位白人国家元首,这是自1994年南非决定纳尔逊·曼德拉后的首次。此前,他曾在赞比亚担任副总统三年。

由于其父母均非赞比亚人,斯科特无法竞选总统。他负责监督向新政府的权力过渡,并为即将到来的选举做准备。这些选举于2022年1月举行,最终由爱国阵线赢得,该党由汉在2018年领导。

在成为代理总统后不久接受《每日电讯报》采访时,斯科特将自己的晋升称为“一点震惊”,并补充说他“为此感到非常自豊”。他告诉记者自己在卢萨卡说:“我可能看起来是个外人,但我的血液是黑色的。”

作为副总统,他深知自己处境的异常性。2012年在接受《电讯报》采访时,他表示,当他出席官方活动时,人们常常会认为肯定是哪里出了问题。

他还提到,在1952年乔治·W·布什访问赞比亚期间,当斯科特被介绍为副总统时,这位前美国总统还以为别人在开玩笑。

盖伊·兰格·斯科特于1944年6月1日出生于林巴贡,当时是北罗得西亚的首府(现为赞比亚的一部分)。他的父亲亚历克斯是一名医生,从格拉斯哥移民到当地修建铁路,后来成为议员。他的母亲史蒂夫从英格兰移民而来。

他们在南罗得西亚的斯普拉格、南方和彼得比斯河学校接受教育。他在剑桥大学三一学堂学习经济学,随后返回新南威尔士大学,并成为该大学的一名医生,后成为《东部和中部非洲商业与经济》杂志的副主编。

1975年,他与迈克尔·克里斯蒂共同创办了一家编辑机构,并与多名年轻人前往欧洲。在一家濒临破产的以色列选举公司担任技术角色后,他负责相关技术管理。后来他成为马科根开发项目的项目经理。克里斯蒂曾在国际市场上筹集了10%资金,使其成为赞比亚独立以来最大的投资之一。

随后,斯科特返回英国深造,于1981年在苏塞克斯大学获得认知科学与机器人学硕士学位,1986年获得博士学位。之后他在牛津大学从事机器人学研究。

他于1990年进入政坛,加入马拉维党民主运动(MMR),并当选农业委员会主席。次年,他在奇科瓦度过,结束了肯尼思·卡翁达长达27年的统治。斯科特在该次选举中当选马拉维中央选区议员。

他被任命为农业、粮食和烟草工业国务部长,负责赞比亚主要供应地区的粮食供应。政府发起全国运动以应对旱情,他与该国最大的玉米种植者合作,并与其管理团队共同

In 1980年代, Eddie was left holding the reins in Canada, taking with him all the money from the family business and a woman called Charles Gaskin, who had been helped to get an out-take of sleeping with Charlie in a casual bedroom above the office; a nickname Eddie called 'glue for a little' and the man he didn’t get along with, his brother, and to make it on his own.

As an early effort to bring an overrun bookmaker to heel, Eddie, with an old associate, set up a certain unlicensed High Street operation called Kerrem. This prospered, but on Charlie’s return to Britain in 1985, fraternal feelings stirred again, and before long Eddie had spent him in his new venture, the whole country now his brother’s domain, handing out beatings to those who crossed them.

The following year, Eddie Richardson joined up with "Mad" Charlie Power, recently head of the 1980s, and was the first man-time business, Atlantic Marketers, displaying the final forebears in leading the country’s first 1980s, and was the first man-time business.

Young Power’s Holland contract and Edition were; this enterprise, too, was soon fishing, especially in Soho, then the thriving heart of Holland in 1980. It was in 1980 that the British government moved into the West End and attracted the attention of the Roxy, the most powerful criminals in London, who considered the area their turf.

In 1987, the British government also operated where he tried to muscle in twice on a gaming club at Southern-on-Sea, Lancashire, but stood the real owner by glowering him in the face. Though the modern system is exact, the British government has been unable to detect the mansion, and the case was dropped. The leader of the opposition Labour Party, George Brown, expressed dismay and called on the Home Secretary, Henry Rowlands, to investigate complaints about witness intimidation.

On his release in 1989, Richardson set up in business with the British government, and set up in Earl’s Court that specialised in pay-per-view – as well as retiring in the scrap metal trade. He also established a nightclub in California and promoted boxing, drawing and fencing.

In 1995 Eddie Richardson was returned to prison, having been convicted of involvement in a fraudulent currency- and cocaine-smuggling case, the biggest ever in Britain. He was released on parole in 1995, two years halfway through his 25-year sentence.

Paintings he had completed in jail, including a portrait of Lord Longford, who had defended him, were exhibited at the West End in the 1990s. His memoir, The Last Word, appeared in 2003, by which time he had become something of a celebrity. Eddie Richardson married, in 1936, Maxine Christie; the marriage ended in divorce, and he is survived by his two daughters. His brother Charlie died in September 2012.

I'm going to cope, King said of cancer

His Majesty was determined to plough on with work despite diagnosis, Queen reveals

By Victoria Ward DEPUTY NEWS EDITOR

THE King said he would "cope" with cancer in his own way after receiving his diagnosis, the Queen has revealed.

Speaking for the first time about the moment her husband found out he had the disease, the Queen said he was determined to carry on as normal. She also spoke with unprecedented candour about a "difficult" visit to a cancer support centre when she knew about the King's diagnosis but the public did not.

The King has been receiving treatment for an undue loss from of cancer for more than two years after being diagnosed in January 2024.

In a short film to mark the 50th anniversary of Maggie's cancer charity, the Queen acknowledged that her personal experience had changed her perspective on the disease.

The Queen, who has been president of Maggie's since 2008, said: "Look at my husband, nothing stopped him. He just said: 'This is my way. I'm going to cope with it.'"

She added: "It had never really come back to event at home. And suddenly your husband is diagnosed and you think, 'Goodness, I've been talking to all these people and now I'm the one with some relation... who's got to help to look after my poor husband and try to understand it all.'"

The Queen opened a new Maggie's cancer support centre at the Royal Free Hospital in north-west London on Jan 8, 2024, just two days after the King had been discharged from hospital and five days before Buckingham Palace announced that he had cancer.

Describing the visit, she said: "I

remember coming to see a Maggie's just after the King being diagnosed.

"Nobody could say anything at the time. That was quite difficult. I almost said something but you know. I felt that it wasn't the time to get to the next everybody who was suffering and all the relations and I think it made me realise even more how important these places were."

In a video filmed at Clarence House and released today, Dame Laura Lunt, the chief executive of Maggie's, praised the Queen for keeping the engagement.

"It was just a work before it became public and the courage that must have taken for you," she said.

The Queen replied: "I was just laughing to be it out but obviously I couldn't."

The King "I" was admitted to hospital on Jan 20 2024 for treatment for an enlarged prostate, only to be told he had cancer.

He returned to public-facing engagements that April, prompting the Queen to say at the time that he "won't slow down and won't do what he's told".

In December, the King revealed his cancer treatment was not to be reduced. Emma said that the King's candour about his diagnosis had encouraged more people to visit the centres, and revealed that there had been a 12 per cent increase in male visitors.

He said: "The King's operation about his diagnosis has undoubtedly helped others to be more open themselves and to now hear the Queen's completely understandable and natural response as a wife shines a light on why it is so important that family and friends also get the support they need."

Patients die after NHS hospital rationing

By Michael Searles

DEPUTY HEALTH EDITOR

NHS patients died after GPs were encouraged to refer fewer people to hospital, a switching bin said.

At least two patients died and others were left without help for months as a result of the NHS advice and guidance (A&U) system, an investigation found.

The process, which was expanded earlier this year, encourages GPs to ask for assistance from hospital specialists instead of referring a patient to hospital.

The Health Service Safety Investigation Body (HSSB) has warned the NHS to pame the scheme before more people are harmed. Its interim report warned that "harsh had arisen as a result of delayed or missed diagnoses" because of the system.

In one case, a patient had been suffering from regular seizures when a GP made an ad-temperer. This was unanswered by a neurology team for more than a month, and a follow-up report refers to the GP went unanswered for another six weeks.

I may, I must find a science while waiting and died of cardiac arrest at home. A coroner wrote a presentation of future death notice that mentioned the delays.

Another patient died while waiting for cardiology treatment because of a delay in reviewing test results caused to the A&U system.

However, the report added that A&U had "positively suffered outpatient care" overall by improving communication between GPs and consultants, which had reduced waiting times and allowed for one low access to specialist advice.

NHS data show that most A&U requests were responded to within two working days, although 15 per cent took longer than two weeks.

Earlier this year, The Telegraph revealed that health officials had sought to enliver NHS waiting lists for ordering GPs to use more A&Us and reduce the number of referrals. The initial target was to use A&U on one doctor case, but this was later dropped.

HSSB said that while official guidance had not used the word "mandate", correspondence to GPs had, meaning some parts of the country have been enforcing A&Us.

Dr Luke Evans, the shadow health minister, said: "When legitimate concerns were raised around Labour's policy of mandatory review of referrals, they were dismissed out of hand, and I was described by the health minister as an 'opportunist Tory' peddling Confessed on Page 2

Three members of

family drown in sea

A man, woman and a teenage girl die, while another younger girl is fighting for her life

By Samuel Montgomery

THREE members of the same family have drowned after getting into diffi- culty in the water while swimming off a house to each, police have continued.

Emergency services were called to

reports that four people were in diffi- culty off Shoreham-by-Sea yesterday afternoon.

At a press conference last night, funnet police said that the victims were a man, a woman and a teenage girl.

The fourth person pulled from the water, a younger teenage girl, woman in a critical condition in hospital. Police have not yet named any of the victims.

Speaking at the scene, 126 high fumes ("oils said," "the thoughts are with the friends and family. I know this incident

will have a profound effect on the com- munity."

Earlier in the day, several ambo- lators said two air ambulances were sent by the waterfront at Shoreham Fort, a mid-19th-century structure at the harbour entrance.

North East Coast ambulance Service, the Coastguard and the RNLI also attended the scene.

A resident, who wished to remain anonymous, told The Telegraph: "I heard from friends in the Coastguard that it was a family who had been living

in tomb by the harbour front. They were camping and between the harbour arm and the foot. They have been there a couple weeks. I've walked my dog and them. People don't usually camp them."

Alan Faver, 46, a fisherman from Hove, added: "Some of the other fishes were told me it was too a shabby and too kick who went in. The wind earlier was worth-westerly so usually the waves pick up quite a bit. At 1pm, the tide would have been quite high."

"I was thinking the other day that someone is going to get hurt around here. Maybe with the lifeboats nearby they feel safe."

The first, told ITV: "There were search and rescue vehicles, Coastguard vehicles and police vehicles. And then over on the other side of the river there was loads of ambulances gathered around, and the RNLI were still work- ing essentially.

"I was up near the Coastguard town; when I saw two police officers come past me holding evidence from after they looked to be going through looting

ings of, presumably, those who were misdirected the incident.

"The evidence had all contain what applied to be a younger child is fol- lowing and other secreted items, and from that I presume children were unnotred.

The A250 Brighton Road was shut in both directions during the incident.

A spokesman for RBC Coastguard said it responded to an incident reported at Shoreham at about 2.4pm. They added:

An RBC Coastguard-helicopter was sent at well at Littlehampton, Shoreham and by whatever coastguard rescue teams, and an RNLI lifeboat from Shoreham. Touent Police and South East Coast ambulance Service also attended.

Pete Book, a resident, said he had been walking home from the pub when he "saw and heard the Coastguard help- copter in thing over the lifeboat station at the beach.

Victoria Flint arrived at the beach with her family "at about 1pm and soon after we heard the siren for the lifeboat.

"Ambulances started arriving. Then the air ambulances started."

Billions of pounds in gas subsidies needed

to keep the lights on thanks to Miliband

By Nick Guttersby

(KIM) FOXTRUAL CHRISTOPHER

TAXPAYER! face paying billions to sub- sidies the gas supply at all! Miliband's net zero-creased-driven energy firms to pull investment from Britain. Relations go- relating up plans for support of British grants to stop gas providers from scaling back their capacity because of the Gov- ernment's focus on necessities.

They are also considering proposals for save time-sharing gas storage locali- ties to ease the risk of blackouts during periods of high demand.

The growth of heavily subsidized wash and solar power means gas now makes up an increasingly small part of Britain's energy arm through men is of the true fact the country is still heavily reliant on gas in winter.

In a new report, the net zero depart- ment warned that the UK could begin running short of gas from the start of next decade. It found that "wash com-

mercial incentives and the declining overall demand for gas' award there now a mix of the "erosion" of capacity.

"Given this, Government re-optimis- ing changes are needed to help build a commercial landscape that provides sufficient incentives for existing gas supply infrastructure to continue to meet exceptional peaks in demand,"

First they subsidise

renewable heavily.

Then they realise we

have huge blackout risk

officials wrote: "A long-term contract is all model in the form of financial or revenue support may be required".

Companies in the Whitehall consult- ment himself for net zero transition by making it less profitable to supply gas. They argued it would not be commu- cially while to maintain current capacity

in the system just to cope with occa- sonal grounds of high demand.

The report said a subsidy scheme would probably be adequate if a gas use- age operation and providers that require gas from the Continent. Net zero officials also said that they were looking at plans to subsidise new gas storage facilities that could include a floating storage unit to store frozen liquefied natural gas.

Political opponents said the clash to renewable-breast taxpayers would be hit with a double advantage of subsidis- ing both green energy and fossil fuels.

Richard Tew, Bolivian UK's deputy leader, said: "First they subsidise renewable heavily. Then they realise the wind does not always blow up the sun always alone and we have huge blackout risk. In now they subsidise gas to billions of pounds to us as backup".

Officials had argued that the shift to renewables would bring down energy prices by making Britain less-reliant on volatile global gas prices.

Patients wait months without

answers under A&G scheme

Continued from Page 1

Company's theories: Now, four months on, both GPs and specialists are strag- gling, and patients aren't getting the right care in the right place. The Government and Millbank take pains and review this GP thought out policy immediately before never patients come to light.

An estimated 20 per cent of referrals to hospitals are blocked, with "unsub- ited" advice sent back to family doctors, according to a survey of GPs by Pulse.

The report said a dissident is a bit where a GP sent multiple referrals for suspected data-users "via a mandatory A&G pathway" and received only advice. When the patient was seen, the GPs' data were not collected was shagwood, but by threat was more advanced and harder to treat.

A separate incident saw a GP request help for a patient with blood in their urine. The technology from such an GP needed to de-move tests and made a sus- pected cancer referral for county. How-

ever, it ended up being "inadvertently controlled" without the GP or patient finding out. When the patient sought more help on unsatisfactory, it turned out they had no domestic care.

BNSB said the full extent of risk could be the determinant because of stable reporting of patients. Dr Nick Woodner, a senior safety investigator at the BNSB, added that there had been "genuine enthusiasm" for A&G, but that there had also been "serious concerns and the balance of funds where impen- terization has not been adequately stopped or monitored".

A spokesman for NBS England said the BNSB achieved open, advice and support for a positive, sufficient con- patient care by reducing waiting times and giving people quicker to save to up- right advice, but we know more needs to be done to make it work even more after body.

King brings back Balmoral men-at-arms after 90 years

By India McTaggart

THE KING has been welcomed to Balmoral for his summer residence by Highland men-at-arms after reuniting the group that was disbanded 90 years ago.

A guard of honour met the monarch as he reached the Royal family's Scottish home and he was welcomed by the Balaklava Company, the 5th Battalion, Royal Regiment of Scotland, in a formal ceremony.

At part of the ceremony, the first two members of the newly revived group were questioned outside the cardlet's front gate.

The King re-established the group decades after its disbandment in 1836 under his great grandfather, George I.

Both new Highlanders, who went a mid-tent that takes inspiration from the original hilt's own in the late 1800s, are employees of His Majesty's Balmoral estate. They will both also take part in the Erasmus' fastening next month.

The King has already had a long schedule in Scotland throughout the start of August.

He has attended the Castle of My Games, met with the Aseyst Mountain Rescue team as well as with the communities of Halifax and Carlet over, which included operating a distillery in a restored former mill building.

Yesterday's guard of honour marks the start of the monarch's summer stay at the Royal family's beloved Scottish Highlands estate, where Elizabeth II spent her final days in 2012.

It is tradition for the monarch to inspect the battalion when taking up residence and a ceremony was held for the King as a small crowd observed from behind the gates.

The Pipes and Drums of the 2nd Battalion provided the man at a compartment to the ceremony.

In June, the King wrote in the foreword to a new guidebook that Balmoral thinks "engaged/special place" in the heads of the Royal family.

Writing on the 80 page paperback titled Balmoral, the monarch said the Scottish estate was a "standard home" for his family, with "starting unfolds/ality" and a "previous, almost sacred surrounding landscape".

The 50,000 new Balmoral estate was purchased by Queen Victoria and her husband, Prince Albert, in 1852, and they went on to hold the cards.

Queen smiled... but she held a devastating secret

Victoria Ward DEPUTY ROYAL EDITOR

Her Majesty embodied 'keep calm and carry on' with visit to cancer hub day's after husband's diagnosis

HAS there been a more poignant example of a member of the Royal family somehow managing to keep calm and carry on?

The Queen's visit to officially launch a Maggie's cancer centre when unbelieved and to the rest of his world, she had just found out that her

husband had been diagnosed with the disease, is surely up there.

To have stepped out in public whilst barbearing such a devastating secret, is one thing.

But to do so at a cancer centre, stuffed to the fetus with patients and nurses, including for your attention, to quite another.

The Queen's has now up date about how "difficult" she found that visit to the Maggie's cancer support centre at the Royal Royal hospital in north London on Jan 31, 2024.

She admitted that she had been "longing" to share her news, recognizing, perhaps, that she was

surrounded by people who understood, who had been there and could have empathized in a way others could not.

It is testament to the Queen's structure that she not only went ahead with the engagement planned well before the King had ever been admitted to hospital for treatment for an enlarged prostate but came through it with a smile on her face.

She is very familiar with Maggie's cancer centres, having championed the charity founded by her late friend, Maggie Research Arusha, as its president since 2008.

This was her 17th visit to a centre but her first as someone who had been suddenly plunged into that community of patients, families and carers through personal experience.

The timing of the visit was purely coincidental. It was announced to the media on Thursday, Jan 25, the day before the King was admitted to hospital for treatment for his enlarged prostate.

At some point between his affiliations on Jan 29 and his discharge on Jan 29, he was seemingly told he had cancer.

The diagnosis was not announced to the public until Feb 1, when he began his treatment, but at the meantime, the Queen seldom led on.

The Maggie's visit was the first royal engagement since the King had left hospital two days earlier and everyone

wanted to know how he was. No one, except the Queen, knew he had cancer. And no one was about to find out.

On its visit, she was greeted by the usual lineup of dignitaries, shading hands and smiling along as usual with a theory. Hello, very much, too you.

time, no one in the reconstructed anything interested.

It was the donors who asked the questions on everybody's lips.

When the Gerald Ronson asked after the King's health, the Queen replied "He's getting on, being the best."

Don Dana-Binet, who led the fundraising effort to the new centre, said she was "explained" the King was well, prompting the Queen to nod and

had found comfort and respite at the centre, a "harrel" where they could spend time with those who understood them.

It is sure to see, with hindsight, how the Queen must have been desperate to start out her secret, how she, too, may have found comfort among that community and had questions they might have been able to answer.

Often, on such engagements, she addresses the unavoidable crowd, rather reading from a speech or delivering a few words off the cuff.

On this occasion, she did not. She briefly glanced up as Dante Laura Lee, chief executive of Maggie's, spoke of how "devastating" a cancer diagnosis could be and gazed straight ahead as she was told that her "empathy for those living with cancer, and the people who love them, was evident". On the face of it, the Queen was simply getting on with the day job, shading hands, smiling, offering words of encouragement.

When she visited Maggie's Cheltenham, to celebrate the charity's 30th anniversary in January this year, she said one of the joys of the centres was that they provided a place where cancer patients "merely" pretend to be fine!

The Queen is not a patient, but she is human. And on this occasion, she did pretend to be fine. Duty first, as always. A reminder that cancer touches not just the patient but their families, too.

King of Norway, 89, placed on sick leave after blood disorder

By Our Foreign Staff

THE 89-year-old King of Norway, Harald V, has been admitted to hospital and put on sick leave for two weeks, the royal palace announced.

Europe's longest-serving monarch is admitting from her mother, anastasia, a condition caused by an abnormally rapid destruction of red blood cells, feeding to tongue, paleness and shortness of breath.

"The founders have treated with carcinoma in recent weeks" to combat the illness, the palace said. "This treatment has led to their formation in the body, who foregives hospital care" it added.

His son, the Croete Prince Hadron, will serve as regent during his sick leave.

The King, who succeeded the Norwegian throne in 1898, has experienced several health problems in recent years, forcing him to have a pacemaker fitted and to scale back his child at a bedside.

But he has always ruled an obliterating, arguing that he took a lifelong oath before the Norwegian Parliament. In

February, he was taken to hospital for an infection and dehydration in Tenerife, where he was on a private trip with his wife, Queen Kong.

For Queen, also 89, was briefly admitted to hospital in May because of many problems.

The couple's health problems follow a torrid period for the Norwegian rep.

The princess has also had to contract

with the legal troubles of her son, Marisa Ring Bailey.

Scientists are labouring to before Princess Mette-Marit and Hadron's marriage in 2016. Bailey, 29, was sentenced in June to four years in prison for two years and 32 other charges, including violence against a foster partner.

The cases of which he was accused, including one said to have taken place at the royal couple's own place, occurred between 2016 and 2024, after nights of partying during which Bailey said he had used alcohol and drugs. He has appealed the verdict.

Princes Mette-Marit married Prince Hadron in 2016, when Bailey was four. The couple had two children, Princess Ingrid Alexandra and Prince Sverre Magane.

Bailey would make public appearances with his mother, stepfather and siblings before stopping back from public life in 1987, when he was 20, because he wanted privacy, fulfilling herself from an accessible living disease, Princess Mette-Marit, 52, also had to undergo a long transplant in July.

The memoir, titled Know long, Diana, 49, states: is set to be released next month to mark the 30th anniversary of her death.

It is expected to cover the princess's childhood, her unhappy marriage to the three Princes of Wales and the informants of her death in a car crash in Paris on Aug 31 1997.

Reform suspends backer who hit out at Farage

Conservative defector Montgomerie ditched after accusing party leader of having 'women problem'

By Peter Wentemagres and Dominic Pomer

A public report of Reform UK reporter has been suspended from the 1979-1980 crisis using Nigel Farage.

Tim Montgomerie, who founded the Conservative House website before defecting to Reform in 2024, accused Mr Farage of having a 'women problem' and hit out at the leader's 'angry and aggrieved' tone following his Christ to re-election victory.

Keith Wentemagres, the Montgomerie has briefed journalists about a bill between Mr Farage and his friend, the former of the 2024's spokesman, The Telegraph understands Mr Montgomerie for head and floor claims.

In an interview with The Spectator magazine on Monday, Mr Montgomerie

claimed Mr Farage had a problem being interviewed by women and had our people claimed with people who told him what he 'wants to hear'.

He also said that Reform was not ready for government. Mr Montgomerie also accused Mr Travel of plotting to replace Mr Farage as lead in getting he was behaving 'like a child in politics'.

It is understood that Mr Montgomerie was suspended prior to the interview taking place.

A Reform source said: 'This was suspended in line with party rules. He was unlikelihood as suspension before you're day's spectator podcast was broadcast. He was suspended after persistent public criticism of the party over many months.'

Speaking to The Spectator's rugby house show podcast, Mr Montgomerie attacked Mr Farage's recent media performance when he said about a parliamentary investigation over the Reform leader's fall-

He said Mr Farage performed poorly when being interviewed by women, adding: 'I think Nigel is probably one of the best media performers in the last few decades. He can give good information interviews. He can speak to people on the streets. He can do platform queries.'

But what he cannot do is, if it's been him - his personal circumstances, his personal business, particularly if he's interviewed by a woman - he's not good'.

Mr Montgomerie urged Mr Farage to spend more time permitting with aides and interviews because it was 'his Achilleshed'. He added: 'I think a lot of people are more when he does those television interviews. I think he's probably angry at himself. He is probably realises he made

a mistake. But I think the general point is that that is really his Achilleshed - that when he is lazing hostile questioning he doesn't perform well. It's only going to encourage more of it. Everyone won it, and so if you're Labour or one of his prime opponents, you will go after this because he doesn't react well.'

Mr Montgomerie joined Reform in December 2024, describing the Foster record on immigration during their 16 years in power as 'a breaking point'.

Mr Farage welcomed his defection at the time, writing on it. 'Tim Montgomerie says the gap between what the Conservative promised and what they deferred was as great it pushed him to support Reform. I suspect there are many millions like him in the country.'

Mr Montgomerie claimed Mr Farage had supported his defection because he wanted more people to provide him with constructive criticism as he was 'surrounded by people who told me what I want to hear'. He explained: 'I said to Nigel, 'are you absolutely sure you want me? Because I was a pain in the a - for David Cameron when I am

But he said, 'I'm surrounded by people who tell me what I want to hear'. He said I was very nice but we need more individuals.'

Elsewhere, Mr Montgomerie said Mr Farage had so formal chief of staff. I did not regularly meet with his MPs and that nobody on the party's front bench was in charge of parliamentary candidate selection.

'We don't need an early election, whatever Nigel says. We need a later election, and we need to be ready for it. There's one thing to sort of think, yes, I'd like to be prime minister, and then there's another thing to actually prepare for becoming prime minister.'

Last night, Mr Montgomerie told The Telegraph's podcast The Daily T'hat Mr Farage had not known about his suspensions. He said: 'I have been suspended by Reform and told it should be kept private. I because of Farage to ask if I want to be unlikable.'

Mr Montgomerie said he planned to appeal his suspension.

Number of foreigners who claim benefits hits fresh high

By Sun Ping Chan & COWOMAN EDITOR

THE number of foreigners claiming benefits hit a fresh high just days after Reform proposed to ban claims by overseas nationals.

Almost 1.4 million migrants were claiming Universal Credit (US) in May 2024, according to figures published by the Department of Work and Finances, roughly 20,000 higher than a year ago.

Citizens from the EU accounted for the largest proportion of the total with about half of the foreigners claiming Britain's mass unemployment benefit coming from the Continent.

Those with indefinite leave to remain, who have usually lived and worked in the UK or a near-free years, accounted for 231,000 of the total.

The figures were released just days after Nigel Farage's party proposed an overhaul of Britain's benefits system.

Robert Janisch, Reform's economy spokesman, recently saddled a package designed to save £100m.

Under the proposal, all EU citizens granted settlement rights in the UK would be banned from claiming benefits, which would require Mr Farage to renegotiate the UK's Brexit deal.

Tom Watson, at the Institute for Fiscal Studies (IFS), said: 'Tenn-wing benefits from one UK citizens would mean large overnight costs to claimant incomes and imply signals not increases in hardship'.

However, Mr Watson said some migrants might work to increase British citizens' status with savings stamps.

Analysis by the IFS suggests that roughly half of foreign welfare claimants are currently in work.

Power shift as No 10 North job charged with growing the economy

By Gwen Wright

A New 10 North job has vowed to transfer responsibility for economic growth from the Treasury to No 10 North export of a 'large transfer of power' out of Whitehall.

In an interview with the Times, the Prime Minister said the Treasury's traditional focus on local discipline sometimes 'climate the growth mission'.

In said building No 10 North powers for the industry growth would give Downing Street 'maximum power to catch it the like lingers where they exist in the wake Whitehall system.'

Critics of the Treasury have long soared the minority of being too concerned with the short-term health of

the public finances at the expense of spending on infrastructure projects and skills training, which can boost growth.

Earlier this month, it was reported that John Buskey, the Chancellor, is plotting a £10m borrowing spore at the budget in an attempt to boost GDP.

While he was master of Greater Manchester, Mr Burnham raised concerns about the effect of the Treasury's line of sales on growth, saying Britain is 'in such as the brand market'.

The move will lead to comparisons with the Department of Economic Affairs, the doomed growth ministry set up by the old Whiteside (1838/39).

Mr Burnham said: 'It is actually a huge transfer of power. It's something that the country has never cracked

'It is actually a huge transfer of power. It's something the country has never cracked before'

before. I don't wish this to sound, you know, a criticism or negative about the Treasury.

'There's a plea to draw around control of public finances. It's just the dual job of growth and control of public finances. What's something's clouds the growth mission.'

And particularly having No 10 leading on that growth mission means that the get maximum power to unlock the blockage where they exist in the wake Whitehall system.'

When pressed on the comparison with the UK's, he said he was people in 'engage with the seriousness of the proposition'. He said Mr Buskey is fully supportive of the budget.

Louise Haigh, the First Secretary of

State and de facto deputy prime minister, has understood oversight and is expressing the changes on growth policy. The Times reported.

No 10 North is overseas for 'co-char Simpson, the former chief executive of the Greater Manchester Combined Authority who has become Mr Burnham's deputy chief of staff'.

The Prime Ministerexplains deodorian raising powers to impress is at the heart of the town's budget, and much of this agenda is said to be being worked on by No 10 North.

Mr Buskey will also give a speech and month on consumer policy, and will publish a 10-year plan for radical economic and constitutional change after the budget. Elsewhere in the time-

'The dual job of growth and control of public finances clouds the growth mission'

'view, Mr Burnham conceded that his initial policies, such as removing VAT from electricity bills and مستحکمing the £2 loss face cap, had not been 'worth daunting'.

However, he insisted the public 'just want something to make life a little bit better' and had not been seeing a 'sense of action' from No 10.

Earlier, Mr Burnham had insisted he was not embarrassed about falling for a boat in which he exchanged messages with somebody implementing Donald Trump's chief of staff. He said: 'All public forum are receiving these pressures and those challenges, but I still everything right. There was a minimal exchange of information of new consequences, and it was quickly reported.'

Not-so-easy meat: Farming minister comes over all faint while inspecting beef fridges

By Peter Wentemagres

FEDERAL REPORTER

THE new farming minister was forced to benefit dog a year at a most precise time plan about 1980.

Stephen Morgan, the MP for Portsmouth South, left unwell during a recent visit to Lake District Farmers processing plant at Thewston, Cantrile.

Cabinetman, who was appointed as farming minister last month by Andy Burnham, likened his unbreakable on the disparity between the large fridges where the meat is kept and the fact as outside the plant.

He said: 'I felt unwell moving between the extreme heat and cold

storage, and I'm grateful to all the stuff at Lake District Farmers.

Then off to the brilliant people working in those conditions and temperatures to keep the nation fast.'

It is understood Mr Morgan continued the tour after stopping for a brief pause and a drink of water to regain his beatings.

One local farmer told The Sun: 'He'd been down large chunks of food as well as some steaks but then he felt faint.

'He said something like: 'I don't feel too well, I need a moment'.

He added: 'It's not a great look for the farming minister to faint at the sight of meat'.

Last week, Mr Burnham announced a

£60m package to help farmers cope with drought. However, the National Farmers' Union cannot overcome the bulk of the funding could go towards nations it would: initiatives to support wildlife, rather than to save energy.

'The package included £10s for farmers to build reservoirs and £50s for the Sustainable Farming Incentive, a pre-existing scheme that encourages sustainable farming policy.'

The cash has been reallocated from elsewhere in the Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs' farming budget. Saint Lane, the president of the Country Land and Business Association, described the funding as a 'drop in the ocean'.

London borough to raise council tax by 160 per cent as Rayner redistributes funding

By Madeleine Ross SECRET REPORTER

A LONDON council is consolidating imposing. England's biggest ever council known as Andy Burnham plus funding, one for the most thorough. The Telegraph understands.

Citizens' prior-year, Wandsworth council is looking at a 160 per cent increase in 1980 from total April, sources said, after being given special permission by Labour to introduce uncapped increases for next year.

Five London boroughs, including the borough of Wandsworth, were prompted to introduce increases above the standard 5 per cent for the next two years after funds from Whitehall were

redistributed for other councils from the start of this tax year.

The powers were brought in as part of Housing Secretary Angela Rayner's overhaul of funding.

The Government has cut funding to Wandsworth council by 40 per cent as a work to reimburse receipts across the rest of England.

Wandsworth, which has historically had some of the lowest council tax rates, will receive £10m a year less from Whitehall by the end of the decade.

Council tax in Wandsworth would be frozen for the rest of the term, according to Parliament website Publications, which first reported the figures now under consideration. Wandsworth

has a minority Conservative administration, after the party replaced council in May.

Peter Graham, the cabinet member for finance, said: 'Wandsworth's financial crisis was made by Labour. The Government gave us the worst calls settlement in the country, claiming the council's funding by 40 per cent. And locally, Labour managed to double the size of the hole, leaving a gap of £20m.'

That's why we are running a full spending review to cut waste and find savings.

Wandsworth council and the Ministry for Housing, Communities and Local Government were contacted for comment.

Tan up: Tuna fishing returns to Whitby after almost a century

The 746lb whopper was landed in waters once fished by Hollywood stars such as Clark Gable

By Robby Clane

ANGERS and conservationists are heralding the first bluefin tuna to be caught and landed in the North Sea for almost 80 years.

The fish, weighing 746lb (List), was landed on Sunday at Whitby, North Yorkshire. She paid that was once a mecca flying game fishing in the 1950s.

Whitby will holds the long standing British record for a bluefin tuna record and has a 453lb moisture caught in 1911.

In the record state such as Clark Gable and insatiations were drawn to the area for the chance to catch the enormous

"tunny" fish. But because of overfishing of herring stock, the big game species disappeared from the North Sea in the 1960s.

In the past 10 years, they have returned in large numbers to the waters of the south-west coast where there is now a thriving and sustainable fishery for them.

Under Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs (DeRai rules), a handful of fishing vessels are granted an annual license to catch and land a small quota of bluefin tuna which they can sell to markets for thousands of pounds.

The waters off Devon and Cornwall are evening with "tunny" and now they appear to have returned in great numbers to the North Sea.

The crew of the Whitby fishing vessel Dominator caught the whopping specimen which is thought to be the first

bluefin tuna landed in the area since 1939.

Glenn Kilpatrick, a Whitby photographer, was there to witness its arrival. He said "A truly enormous Atlantic bluefin tuna, or 'tunny' as these Fish were always traditionally known here, was landed at Whitby.

"I was fired Dominator return, sitting noticeably heavy to one side with the weight of the catch aboard. The few weight was calculated at 7:41.54lbs. That is one seriously big fish.

"The crew were sunkers andably pleased with their fish. I'm told the fish will now be sold to restarants where to the UK.

"That has not gone unnoticed by the wildlife around the Yorkshire coast. We now regularly see minile whales, hang-back whales and several species of bluefin. Basically, if you protect the bottom of the food chain and allow the food to be there, everything further up to them opportunity to find it."

The University of Exeter has been monitoring the return of bluefin tuna stocks to the North Sea, which has included tagging them.

Dr Lutz Hurdle, of the University of Exeter, was leading the research and said, "Bluefin tuna are supposed to be in our waters and used to be incredibly important to this region.

"The fact they've back has been thanks to some careful and judicious management of fisheries. Bluefin tuna are also top problems who can only be in these waters if the ecosystem underneath them are healthy."

However, the one in bluefin tuna in the British Isles could have been fuelled by causing marine temperatures.

The waters around Britain are up to 3C warmer than usual after an counter heatwaves hitting the country.

David Jarrod, the chief executive of the Shellfish Association of Great Britain, told The Telegraph last month: "We are in uncharted waters. You've got the sea bass moving north, you've got sea bream moving north, and we've got the bluefin tuna coming into our waters.

"We have a dynamic situation in the marine environment. It's constantly changing."

Since 2016, researchers have tagged 185 bluefin tuna from the south-west coast, Wales and Jersey. But they say the fish found off the north-east coast are considerably larger and may be genetically distinct from those above y tagged.

"WE'VE got a two-hour run out, but then we'll see some fish.

At an in the morning, two hours on a boat did not sound not any. Stuart Newall, the shipper, handed me many instant coffee, started the engines of the west Shire and pointed towards the open Atlantic. At 50 knots, with Cornwall disappearing behind us, the world quickly became a blur of blue and grey.

Start to air. Many shearwaters were shimming the waves. Hiring impossible low. In Cornwall they are known as "tuna birds" because their migration past the West Country used to coincide with the arrival of the bluefin tuna. Follow the birds, and you will find the tuna.

"Eyes from - they're have," Newall called.

At front of us the sea erupted. A pair of eaves, perhaps an acre across, was excite before fovelling white water. Bluefin tuna prepared thorough it, enormous silver bodies flushing beneath the surface, their mouths

gage as they swallowed and then fleeing for their lives. Shearwaters fitted around the whare pulls and games impinged from above. Least my late into the insatiation. "Last week a long single can for these hours. Cane off before we saw it. He could barely stand afterwards. Probably over 100lbs."

Then, almost as quickly as it had begun, the slaughter stopped. The sea went quiet. Looking over the side, I saw millions of canine scales gliding on the surface, as the fish were not-fired to drop and a bomb of silver glitter into the ocean. The smell of fish, oil being in the air, it was brutal.

There is something disorientating about seeing chlorotic tuna in British waters.

library caught in 453lb tuna, which remains the British record.

It was a glorious, slightly ridiculous world: elaborate tackle, cooker, troughier, and mass increased attempting to catch a fish the size of small cuts. Then the English tuna vanished, the last living caught in the 1950s.

We see it so many tuna and too many of the fish they are. Industrial

fishing hammered North Sea herring and mackerel, while bluefin populations were pushed to the bank by demand for sushi.

Now they are back. "I am my first bluefin here in 2001, a few more I couple of years later. Now I see close to hundreds every day," Newall confirms.

Their prey has returned, management has improved and bluefin

numbers have recovered. Britain is now trying to work out what to do with this unsuspected abundance.

That question makes particularly this summer. The Government has raised the bluefin spots from 63 tonnes last year to 2.15 tonnes - a 200 per cent increase. Hurry British commercial vessels have now been influenced by harvest bluefin with the sunflow, while corporate catch-and-release fishery has been expanded, with more shippers than ever increased in the net guests.

That may sound, the the beginning of the rock. It needs to be.

The Chart (Cato) And Release Tagging research programme has become extraordinary success, and shown what can happen when anglers become parlour or conservatives rather than its exteriors.

Between 2020 and 2025, 5,877 tuna were tagged in 1,613 trips, but doing 4,400 anglers. All were released and the programme generated 22,000 of economic activity in south-west England. Now all was one of the early participants. "It was a really dark operation, and that research has got us to where we are to go - understanding the resource, but is it exploring it?"

Although there are more boats this

year, both the commercial and recreational fisheries remain tightly controlled. Chart is a good example of conservation not keeping people away from nature, but giving them a reason to value it.

The old Tunny Club was an absurdly privileged institution, but it understood something that we often forget: a spectacular fishery can give us human resources already. In former clubhouse may now be a chip shop, with sepia photos of long gone

sandless, a cleaning its walls. Not the fish that I saw off Cornwall now range back to their old Yorkshire hunting grounds, terrorising the herring and sunflow.

Last week, put north of Scarborough, in Whitby, crowds gathered at a quarrelin as a boat unloaded a 746lb 'tunny onto the deck. This is the first bluefin landed at Whitby since 1939, a fishing vessel that was cut short when Germany invaded Poland.

Now they are back. We should enjoy the bluefin, study them, and fish for them carefully. Above all, we should leave enough tunny in the sea for the next generation of fishermen to complain about the size of the one that got away.

Leader of the pack: Fugitive's labrador leads police straight to his hiding place

By Samuel Montgomery

A POSITIVE was found by police after his own labrador led officers to his hiding place.

Charles Roy, 16, left his dog behind while driving from police on an illegal excursion.

He was found hiding under insatiation in his cell, after the dog led police back to his home in Princeton.

Roy appeared at Washington magazine, "some of the older dog I where he was sunsmoke to three months' imprisonment and banned from driving for four years and three months.

He was previously found guilty of failing to carry the police driving while disqualified, using a motor vehicle without insurance and failing to pro-

vide a dog test during a one day trial in March 2020.

The court heard that a 1940-era cell officer on patrol spotted Fox riding as a scourer, a vehicle that cannot be manned and is illegal to use on public roads with two dog running alongside.

The officer noted that there was also a considerable smell of cannabis coming from the cart and indicated that Fox pull over.

Roy ignored the command and made attempts to escape the pursuing officer, during which one of his dogs - a labrador, left behind. Eating the patrol on the Charles-Pole's officer can be heard on a body-wave, one or a thing the dog. "She he left you! I'm he been dead but unlikely you?"

"There is a lot of literally past there and I think he'd behind it."

Upon further inspection, the officers found Fox undertooth several pieces of insulation.

Fox later claimed he had been asleep in the cell, because the house was over crowded and that he had not been out riding the excursion that night.

Polanski: It's time that we sorted the media out

By Pieter Stepp angers POLITICAL REPORTER

EACH POLANSIST has demanded an inquiry into the "culture and behaviour" of the press, adding that it was time the media was "scored out".

The Green Party leader signed a letter to study Rumbam demanding the Government launch an inquiry into how to "ensure a responsible press" following Jason Arday's death.

He has also described lynx, the press regulator, as "tooltimes" and called for the forced self-off of most national investigators by banning foreign ownership.

His intervention comes as Green Party members called for the Government to respect the Leewan inquiry to exonerate "full-completed" shifts since the media under a "genuinely independent and recognized regulator with effective enforcement power."

Green members put forward the motion that would also see a new regulator "map and address" examples of racism and ableism and monies "harassment" allegedly arising from news stories.

The motion was put forward two days after Arday's death and ahead of the Greene conference in October when it could become party policy if approved by a majority of members.

Arday, who was Cambridge University's youngest-ever-fan A professor, was found dead at an address in Ratterson, south London, on Friday.

The 44 year-old had resigned from his position as professor of sociology of education the week before, citing the "unrelenting level of public scrutiny" following a cautious of plagiarism and the university launching an investigation into his appointment.

On Saturday, Mr Rumbam paid millions to Arday, whose death he described as a tragedy. He also called for a "moment of reflection" and urged people "as to make it judgment".

However, in a post on X, Mr Polanski wrote: "I don't think it would be 'rushing to judgment' to see that the press brawling people - especially people of colour - has been going on for a long time. Really spindess response from the Prime Minister have that utterly full-crossog扬e the moment to make the press."

On Sunday, Mr Polanski's work was joked further. Responding to an article in the Mail on Sunday that praised this summer's five bestwives, he said: "It's time we sorted out the press. Constant transformation to press I first do not and fossil fuels in destroying lives and our planet. The Government must step up and stop being cowardly."

He has added his signature to a letter to the Prime Minister and Lisa Nandy, the Culture Secretary organised by the Good Law Project demanding an "immediate" public inquiry into the press.

Rape charity rejects funding as donors are anti-immigration

By Simon Johnson

SCOTTISH POLITICAL EDITOR

A DATE charity has turned down funding because the donors support cuts to immigration.

Changes in funds from Crisis 60 BCs refused a donation from the Scottish Citizens Army 30Cs because of the growing public messaging "linking sexual violence on an individual immigration status".

The centre said it needed to "maintain the trust of everyone who turns in us" and that it could not accept the funding, understood by the GMC, "at least consistent."

The 80A has now accused the centre of putting "publics over survivors" of sex crimes.

The Scottish Citizens Army's Facebook page states that it is a "proud way" of strong immigration laws, community safety, and putting local people left.

It has denied allegations that it is a fire-Right group, saying that it did not attend a recent anti-immigration rally that took place in Glasgow and that it condemned alleged Nazi salaries by some participants.

In a post on X, the 80A posted a screenshot of the rejection-irradiated Aug16. Members of the 80A had tested the charity to drop off hygiene kits for rape survivors, which were initially accepted by staff at the site.

But the email from the GCRC said: "Following your visit, some of our staff raised concerns regarding the political nature and public positions associated with your group.

While we appreciate the hygiene kits you supplied and the time and effort taken to visit us, we are unable to accept fundraising activities undertaken on our behalf by organizations that campaign on issues relating to immigration or other political matters.

To protect our independence and ensure that all survivors feel welcome, and undiagnosed, we do not enter into associations that could be perceived as endorsing, particular political viewpoints. We must therefore respectfully decline your offer of fundraising support."

In an accompanying statement on X, the 80A said: "We are furious. Disputed Glasgow Law and Glasgow & Clyde Rape Crusaders treated the truth and amassed a community group that simply tried to help rape survivors.

Staff accepted our women's essential hygiene kits on the day. Brute later they rejected any further fundraising purely because of our positions on immigration and community safety. Politics over survivors."

In a statement, the GCRC said it "came to support all women and girls in the Glasgow and Clyde area who have experienced rape or sexual violence, and every decision we take is guided by our duty to protect survivors."

Rowling: Cambridge failed to protect Arday

Author says farcee around academic was similar to her experience as an 'online punchbag'

By Tom McArdle

JASON ARDAY would not have been "exposed in such a public way" if the University of Cambridge had challenged him "kindly and privately" before electing him to its highest rank, 38 Rowling has said.

The three Foster author and graphic campaigns said that Cambridge should have done due diligence "not least to protect Arday himself".

Arday, who was the university's youngest-ever-fan A professor, was found dead at an address in Ratterson, south London, on Friday.

The 44 year-old had resigned from his position as professor of sociology of education the week before, citing the

unrelenting level of public scrutiny following accusations of plagiarism and the university launching an investigation into his appointment.

Commenting on his death, Rowling, 61, said that "fabulous are always psychologically vulnerable".

Posting on X, the writer said: "He's never have found himself exposed in such a public way if he'd been challenged, kindly and privately, before he was given a highly publicised professorship at what is supposed to be one of the world's best universities.

"There should have been due diligence, not least to protect Arday himself. Students were faded and academic standards were traduced.

"If it's true Arday's stories about himself weren't challenged because Cambridge was excited to appoint a Dartmouth young Jack man, it's equally true that his blackness meant he became a lightning rod for the course around DSI University, equity

and inclusion). I don't doubt the weight of shame, and too-berty and condemnation, even if a lot of it fell on Cambridge rather than Arday personally, seemed unsurvivable to him."

Rowling said that Arday became an "unwilling living symbol" of DSI "taken to a ludicrous extreme and vicious online tooling" the cited her own experience of "becoming a defen-

manned online punchbag", referring to the fact that she had been targeted by pro-trade activists for her gender critical opinions.

She comments some after the heart of a Cambridge college called for an investigation into the "media outright" on the late professor. The university is already reviewing its recruitment process for all senior academic positions.

On Monday, Sir James Chesely, the author's communion minister, accused Cambridge of using Arday for "bringing rights". He claimed that Arday would not have been in such a "verdict" and "personally exposed position" but universities done due diligence.

He added: "I can't help but feel that the truth to me Jason Arday as a long-lung right by some universities - the also with which they said 'we've got the youngest-ever-fan A professor' talking about his age and his ethnicity rather than his talent - I think was part of the reason he was lifted so high as

quickly." Lord Smith of Finsbury, the chancellor of Cambridge University, claimed that "average of Arday a "social feeding frenzy".

Campaigners are understood to be co-ordinating a large number of complaints to move organizations about the message.

More than 90,000 people have signed questions launched by the Good Law Project seeking an inquiry into the coverage of Arday over "two weeks of international activities."

Thousands of people gathered for a visit in Arday's memory in Trafalgar Square on Monday night. The event included a minute of silence, speeches by friends and campaigners and two massical musicians.

Arday resigned after the university included the investigation into the academic qualifications. The university was also considering a number of complaints of alleged academic misconduct.

The University of Cambridge was contacted for comment.

Green Party activists discussed 'wiping Israel off the map'

By Dominic Penna

ANIUM AND ICI, CO-ORDINARIARY

GREEN Party activists discussed warrings to "vape Israel off the map" aided by the Aggressive state shown.

Sequences of Zach Polanski's party argued as a private group that that Israel should be replaced by a single Palestinian state and talked about "full-engagement."

One Green councillor declared they "would like" Israel to be destroyed, writing: "I don't think it's violent to want an illegitimate apartheid state gone from all maps."

Mr Polanski's first year as Green leader has been married by a number of sons over anti-immigration.

The farcee looked remarks, first reported by The Times, will add to our terms over the attitudes of the party and its members towards Israel. He worldly

only friends state. Mr Polanski was not part of the group.

A Whetology chart called Greens Against Imperialism was created by Sophia Magill. the Greens public court filed for Boston, a village on the Isle of Wight.

In one message sent to the group, Mr Magill said: "Dominion has to go, it's ultimately an apartheidist law's, ethno-enterismist ideology."

Challenged on what that meant, Mr Magill responded: "That I need to go. The only solution is one equal state."

Another participant in the group said: "You want to [see] Israel wiped off the map, in essence!" A third participant said: "Wiped off the map is a violent way of interpreting it."

Mr Magill replied: "Yes, I would like that. Like Rhodesia (Rwanda) (before Israel) citizens who are not war criminals and who agree to peacefully coor-

sit with Palestinians have a right to live in Palestine as everyone should have the right to live wherever they want in the world so long as they are not a threat to the safety of others.

I don't think it's violent to want an illegitimate apartheid state gone from all maps."

Dominion refers to the belief in the right of Jewish self-determination. Earlier this year, the Greens were plunged into a civil war after The Telegraph revealed activists had talked a conference motion that called for Dominion to be closed as a "social ideology".

The motion did not pass but Mr Polanski refused to denounce it, even claiming that Dominion as practiced by Benjamin Netanyahu should government won indeed racist.

In January, Mr Magill uploaded a photo to a public Instagram account wearing: "Palestine solidarity put and a kefifjeeb, a scarf that has often been worn by pro-Palestinian protesters to

signal support for Gaza. Last month, Mr Minar was shown around the Lords by Barooms: Jones of Moslem councils, a Green

poor, after a meeting to talk about the party's crime and justice policy.

Another participant in the group chat, who was not named by The Times, said: "Suppose an extreme anti-Zionist could mean that you support Stalag Dominion."

That's, Israel specifically racist any more than believing in capital punishment for nations or 'terroristic' is. Wrong but not necessarily racist me to pay a few! People can have multiple views that seem to conflict!

Another member of the group wrote: "I am tell you'd a state in the name of an ethnic group destroyed my village and killed my family. I might want to plough into a group of them too."

Elsewhere in the message, Hannah Rosar, the membership officer of the Global Majority Greens pressure group, invited members of the group chat to join a review of the party's conference motions.

Mr Rosar promoted the decision to reclaim "minority participants, and later referred to it as 'our mother.'" Mr Magill and Mr Rosar were contacted for comment.

Goreen has to go, it's an apartheidist, ethno-supermacist ideology.

Meaning what, exactly?

That it needs to go. The only solution is one equal state.

Person A

You want Israel wiped off the map, in essence?

Person B

Wiped off the map is a violent way of interpreting it.

Sophos E Magill

Yes, I would like that.

Like Rhodesia.

Obviously I believe Israeli citizens who are not war criminals and who agree to peacefully coexist with Palestinians have a right to live in Palestine as everyone should have the right to live whenever ever they want in the world so long as they are not a threat to the safety of others.

I don't think it's violent to want an illegitimate apartheid state gone from all maps.

Prisoners targeting 'naive' guards as affairs with inmates triple

By Charles Hymas

HOMELANDAN EDITOR

THE number of prison officers disciplined for illicit relationships with inmates has most regarded as their target in a prison sohrab.

Official data obtained under freedom of information is less than that the number of officers disciplined for 'inappropriate' relationships with prisoners or former inmates has increased from 12 in 2017 to 52 in 2019-20.

In many cases, the officers were in a person or female staff who had formed romantic or sexual relationships with the prisoners.

Their included cases where officers were either then smuggling drugs into the prison, or turned a blind eye to inmates' use of illicit mobile phones as they continued to run their criminal

networks from behind bars. The disclosures have prompted demands for better training and tighter recruitment of prison staff, as well as giving, giveaway, greater control over victim recruitment accurately largely attributed centrally.

and poorly trained people with no in experience being thrown into jails holding sophisticated prisoners," said "the lack of experience, staff shortages and the lack of supervision makes sexual boundary violations that much more possible.

"If we are recruiting people to a low enforcement organization who need additional training not to have sex with prisoners, it can much about just how unattractive the job of a prison officer has become!" Among these caught was prison officer Isabelle Dale who was jailed for three-and-a-half years after having romantic

relationships with two inmates and alerting to smuggle drug-scalled envelopes into prison.

Dale swore her "undying love" to prisoners: Khaled Sharif and Connor Moore while working at BNBF's family, say in history. The 10-year-old had sex with convicted robber Sharif in the prison's chapel area, her total baunt.

Another officer jailed for 19 months was Sarah Williams, who had inappropriate relationships with three prisoners with links to organized crime gangs.

Her lawyer said she "tell into the traps and arms of sophisticated criminals" at Liverpool's BNBF Altruismo. Williams knew the three men all had mobile phones, but instead of reporting this, she stopped thousands of texts and ads with them including "intimate sexual chat" and images. For the three controls, her blind eye to their activities

and access to the prison's computer system that she provided to them meant they had "effectively unnoticed contact with their criminal associates", the judge told the court.

One high profile can involved Linda De Souza Alena, who was sentenced to 12 months in jail after been filmed having sex with an inmate at BNBF Wandsworth, London. She was identified by senior prison staff after the city was shared online and went true.

Amber Rudd, the former Tory home secretary, is heading a government review into how to better tackle organized crime, drugs and violence in jails.

A Ministry of Justice spokesman said: "Any relationship between prisoners and members of staff is inappropriate and we don't hesitate to take the toughest action against any staff that fall below our high standards."

Snooker star asked alleged sex abuse victim: 'Did it feel nice?'

By Ben Ramsby

GRASSER DOTT, the former snooker world champion, asked a child he normally shoved whackers it felt "nice", a court board.

Erett, 89, is accused of loved, indecent and violent, and whatever towards two primary-school-age children.

The alleged offseason took place between 2005 and 2006, involving a girl, and 2010 and 2016, involving a boy, both in the Glasgow region.

Dott has denied the two charges against him.

His trial of the High Court in Glasgow began yesterday, with the jury hearing evidence from one of Dott's alleged victims, who gave evidence from behind a screen.

The woman, now in her 40s, told the court Dott had actually abused her on multiple occasions while she was a child. She said the first incident happened when he offered to give her a

piggyback ride, which she said involved her clothing on his back and escaping her arms and legs around the front of his body.

After walking a short distance, she said they stopped for a "couple of minutes".

Snooker Dott denies charges of violent and behavior against two children of primary school age

Explaining he had his hands over her clothing, she told the court: "He started to caravan in Canada."

She added: "I remember it was old to see I think he said 'Even that he's nice', or something to that effect."

The woman alleged that, on another occasion, Dott approached her and said:

"We could play a game: 'the said he told her 'it would be a growing game, and I had to guess what he was doing'.

She said she met them and he pulled her trousers down, lifted her cup, and kissed her on the belly.

Responding to questions from Lindsey Dillard, the court ordered that the court Dott exposed himself to her and then began teaching her with different parts of his body, including his penis.

She explained: "He would touch me with his hand, and said, 'That's my hand. Now you know what that feels like.' Then he kissed me and I knew what that felt like."

The pain, she said, was that she had to guess what he was doing.

She added that Dott had played the game with her 'more than one'.

Dott was present in court and was denied his child suit.

The trial, before judge Lord Harrowe, continues and is expected to last up to five days.

Scholes banned from driving after speeding in Range Rover

By Telegraph Reporter

PAUL SCHOLES, the former Manchester United and England footballer, has been banned from driving for six months after racking up two driving restrictions in the space of two days.

The former multitasked car was not speeding in a Range Rover in March while on a late-night drive through Chichester in West Yorkshire.

West Yorkshire Police brought a prosecution in connection with the incident, as Scholes's car had been choked at 10 mph on a 30 mph stent for residential road.

The former footballer was also taken to task by former Manchester Police after a Mercedes countered to him was caught driving at 40 mph in a 10 mph zone in November last year.

Scholes was then prosecuted for failing to respond to two police letters asking for confirmation that he had been the speeding driver. The two criminal

cases culminated in hearings on two days last week, when Scholes was handed a six-month driving ban and ordered to pay fines, costs, and costs not exceeding £5.82.

A court official said Scholes, who was prosecuted in private hearings under

Court documents show Scholes's Range Rover was caught speeding at just after 11.30pm in March. On the 24/40 Dublin Road near Chichester, Police said the former footballer

terpled to a notice of intended prosecution, confirming he had been the driver. Court papers noted that Scholes could not be offered an use of court settlement with a speed continuous course in he had greatly point on his license and was now in law for an automatic ban.

By the second case, Scholes's Mercedes broke the speed limit on the 4/37. Mercedes Road near Antrim under Lyne at 11.45am on Nov 16 last year. Police said two letters were sent to his home and "no reply has been received."

The force dropped the speeding allegation but continued to prosecute Scholes for failing to reply to the letters.

On Aug 12 at Bradford magazine last week, he was handed a six-month driving ban for the speeding officer, along with a £220 fine, £220 costs, and an £46 victim surcharge.

Khan's plan for 900 new traveller pitches

City Hall says target is a 'minimum', meaning even more could be built across London in next decade

By Dominic Pritchard SENIOR POLITICAL COMMISSIONER

THE 5,000K KHAN is planning to create almost 900 traveller pitches in London over the next decade.

The Labour Mayor of London's development plan has said that 875 new permanent pitches are needed by 2016-17 to meet the needs of the capital's business communities'.

City Hall said the target set was a 'minimum', suggesting more pitches may be built in the coming decade. A

traveler pitch is a plot of land allocated to an individual family or household on a wider travelne-up.

Sir Sadaj's proposals come as Angela Garner, the Housing Secretary, faces a countenance from Terence of othering rules for traveller who is giving counsellors to the town to check the costs.

A draft version of the mayor's London Plan, published by City Hall, especially more was 'key to omitting a truly successful and thriving city'.

One of the 875 permanent pitches identified by the plan, 77 were earmarked for the borough of Brooke's, 70 for Rineering and 12 for Brent.

Brooke's also had the highest target for permanent pitch for travelling a new people of £7, with an additional 24 expected in Brooke's, 20 in Billington and five in Rineering. The plan said,

'London must plan to meet the needs of all its residents, including appoies, travellers and travelling show- people'

'London must plan to meet the needs of all its residents, including appoies, travellers and travelling show people'

'Targets are minimum, reflecting a degree of uncertainty regarding cross- date for those groups and given the pattern of historical studies delivery that urgently needs addressing.'

'There is a growing recognition that meeting pipes and traveller needs is not just about delivering pitches, but culturally appropriate accommodation that recognizes groups and travellers' accommodation preferences.'

City Hall said that there was currently no attention to update the proposals, and that any changes to the London Plan would allow the current consultation. A spokesman for Sir Sadaj said, 'The draft London Plan would be very strong enough to plan for the accommodation

needs of paper and traveller communities, helping to address a long-standing shortage of natural resources.'

'The plan does not allocate any given belt sizes. It is far boroughs to decide how best to meet identified need for paper and traveller pitches through these total plans. A consultation with these communities, including whether given belt land should be considered where there are no suitable alternatives.'

It is estimated that there are as many as 30,000 to 35,000 appoies and travellers in London, although official cross- date recorded put over 7,500 in 2018.

Sir Sadaj has previously held events at City Hall in evidence (e.g., Bona and Traveller History Month in June). His former was accused of leaving councils unable to oppose sunnithor-

Civil servant removed by Starmer given £500K payout

By Amy Gibbons

POLITICAL COMMISSIONER

BRITANN's shortest-serving top civil servant reportedly received a £500,000K payout after Sir Roy Starmer forced himself.

Sir Chris Wormald, the former Cabinet secretary, was initially believed to have been given a £500,000K redundancy package when he left the role in the wake of the Lord Mandelson scant.

Sources have now suggested that the payout was roughly twice that amount, with the higher settlement offered as compensation for the 'short notice' of his departure.

Sir Roy reportedly signed off on the award - which is a rebeltier. 'Darts-contractual entitlements' - after being advised that it was in 'the public interest' to bring, this matter to a conclusion'. The Prime Minister agreed 'the public interest is not in this regard'.

Several sources limited on the settlement told the Financial Times that the total recorded £500,000K. The full cost is set to be revealed in Cabinet Office accounts later this year.

Sir Chris became Britain's short-run serving Cabinet secretary in February when he left the role after only in

'A settlement of this level is necessary given that this is a departure from a high-profile, unique role'

months. He was the third high-profile figure to have Downing Street in the wake of the Lord Mandelson scandal, following Morgan McSweeney. Sir Roy's chief of staff, and Tim Allen, his director of communist status.

According to the Financial Times, Sir Roy signed off the final settlement - which included pension add-ons - at the request of Cal Little, the permanent secretary to the Cabinet Office.

He came to Sir Roy, she said: 'The proposed award is greater than what Sir Chris Wormald would be contractually entitled to. However, I am informed that a settlement of this level is necessary given that this is a departure from a high-profile, unique role that has been agreed at very short notice.'

One government figure confirmed the £500,000K total to the Financial Times, adding: 'It shows why they needed the FM to sign it off. People were pretty shocked to find out. He was the shortest-serving Cabinet secretary in history.'

The Cabinet Office told the Financial Times: 'We don't comment on individual rights matters.'

The Telegraph contacted the Cabinet Office for further comment.

Killer drivers could face ban from early release

By Charles Hymas

SENIOR ARTIST

MOTORISTS who cause death by their dangerous driving may be excluded from Labour's early release scheme under plans being considered by the Ministry of Health (MoH).

Ministers are considering whether to attend an exemption for unlawful killing to include the offence of causing death by dangerous driving for which some 875 offenders a year are jailed.

The third steward that no final decision had yet been made but they were seeking to make the exemptions as low as possible without taking them to the point where the prisoner would run out of space.

The move is part of a review by Alex Norris, the former secretary, ordered by daily Bursham to find a way to prevent the early release of two of the killers of 7s Andrew Harper and 'other individuals'.

The Prime Minister has said he is 'increasingly confident' of finding a way to prevent the early release of the officers's killers since Cole and Albert Bowen who were jailed for 11 years for 3s Harper's manslaughter.

Tonerday, Mr Bursham said: 'So we are looking at every possible issue. I've said I want to do everything possible to ensure we shall see the release of people involved in the killing of 3s Harper and other individuals.'

It is important, given the public concern, that the 'sure-thinking possible' to get this right, that I do everything possible to minimize early release.

That's why we're looking at every way I can do that with the future Secretary and we'll prevent our findings in two weeks' time.

One opinion being considered is to create a view out for unlawful manslaughter. It is thought most of the 875 offenders contacted of manslaughter currently eligible for early release would be barred.

It is a higher level of the offence than negligence or voluntary manslaughter because they were judged to have committed a crime which they knew could cause harm, even if it could not be proved that they attended to kill.

The exemption of unlawful killing could also be applied to causing death by dangerous driving following appeals from increased families of victims, although the Telegraph said sounded in being considered, one source suggested it was an outside possibility.

Among those eligible for early release in killer driver Malcolm Wales, 72, who was described by police in the 'dramatist crew son's beautiful wheel' An 'Mid spokesman said: 'We share the public's anger that these options are ever being considered, after we identified a prison system on the brink of collapse.'

'This is war': On the front line with Gurkhas battling Welsh wildfires

Neil Johnston SENIOR ARTIST

FOR nearly a month, the heartland across the South Wales Valley has been out of the country, where become accustomed to the sound of the equestrian song down the ensuing roads and little-green browsing overland as the fighters to die from the sea to the sea.

But on Friday, as smoke continued to drift across fields like fog and sprawling past fire-burned underground activities, it became clear that the 'sure-thinking' was so strong.

Well more than a dozen fires scattered around the countryside around 200 soldiers who could do so, the hills that were once home to coal mines and seaworms as military combat vehicles rolled in to support exhausted firefighters.

They included around 1000 of the Brigade of Guelphs, famed for being among the finest and most feared soldiers in the world, and soldiers from the Royal Logistics Corps supported by the Royal Engineers.

They have been tasked with manning water supplies and digging fireheads, allowing firefighters to remain on the front line.

It is not quite much warfare, but it is close and the same training required for military and deconforming used in

rural Wales, in the fishing boat, soldiers have been shovelling away at the dry soil, creating firebreaks using iron, sparks, garden shears or simply brine flares to clear topsoil from the sea.

The Telegraph accompanied them on Monday over the former mining village of Trow, Wales, which is served out the latest battle line, hoping to avoid fault from reaching the terraced houses below should the base spread further.

In the battle against 16 wildfires, some spanning thousands of acres, there have been unexpected obstacles as well as the challenge of working in coating temperatures. Burshams have proved particularly troublesome, sticking to everything and being partly to blame for late manning tips to skyrocks for new gloves.

The soldiers are born to stress that the fire service has a burden but are conscious that many people's livelihoods are relying on their efforts to stop the fire spreading.

Among them is Henri Joshua Nivalo, who councillors using the same techniques to create fireheads in his family's home in Wales village. He: 'When I was back in 1943 would do this work in the item. I'm not really better than anyone else just helping the boys.' He 27-year-old said: 'But everything is from the heart.'

For others, they are proud to help an area they know well, including 1pt Nathan Jones, 16, from from a group in

The soldiers are digging fireheads, allowing the firefighters to carry on tackling the healthiest from

the Rhoads, who was unsurprised by the friendly workers they received.

I say, I say, acai – some words won’t trip off the tongue

Segue, charcuterie and quinoa are also on list of 10 most mispronounced terms, research finds

QUALITY of sleep in midlife can make or break a career, a study has found.

A healthy sleeping pattern can lead to a longer working life, while sleeping for too long or with regular interruptions has been failed to carvees ending nine months earlier.

Researchers in Finland looked at data from people aged 50 to 68.

One study involved more than 70,000 public sector staff from 2000 to 2016, and another analysed 6,073 working-age adults from 1998 to 2013.

Sleep duration in those aged 50 and over was categorised as either short (under seven hours), mid-range (seven to eight and a half hours) and long (nine or more hours). Disturbances included problems falling or staying asleep and waiting too early.

People who reported no disturbances had a working life expectancy beyond the age of 30 of 15 years five months.

The longest working life expectancy – almost 18 years – was among professional women who reported no sleep disturbances. This shortest, almost 12.5 years, was among men with severe sleep disturbances.

Public-sector workers who slept less than seven to eight and a half hours had a working life expectancy of 15 years two months, while for more than nine hours it was 12 years five months.

The findings, published in the journal Occupational Environmental Medicine, also found that for 50-year-old public-sector workers, the longest working life expectancy was about 15 years seven months among men and women in professional roles with shorter sleep sessions.

The shortest was six years and five months for men in routine jobs with low levels of education who slept for more than nine hours a night.

The study authors said: “To promote older adults’ participation in work, supporting sleep of recommended length and good quality may be required.”

One dead after salmonella outbreak linked to imported eggs

By Telegraph Reporter

ONE persons has died and hundreds have been able to defraud salmonella outbreak in 2020.

The UK Health Security Agency (UKHA) said the food poisoning outbreak "may be linked to eggs imported from outside of the UK".

Salmonella generally causes self-

limiting gastroenteritis, with symptoms such as stomach cramps, diarrhoea, vomiting or fever.

More than a third of the people affected "may be their" in the outbreak were taken to hospital, with two people developing potentially life-threatening bloodstream infections.

The UKHA said 2071 cases had been confirmed between Aug 9 last year and

Aug 1 this year - 109 in England, an in Scotland, one in Wales and one in Northern Ireland.

The regions in England with the highest number of cases are London, where 47 cases were confirmed, and Yorkshire and Humber, which saw 38. Those affected include babies and people as old as 90.

Rumah Charles, the lead epidemiol-

ugist for gastrointestinal infections at UKHA said: "We're working with the Food Standards Agency and other public health agencies to investigate real-months outbreak that may be linked to eggs imported from outside of the UK."

Anyone who is concerned about symptoms should contact their GP or out-of-hours service in the first instance. There are simple steps to

prevent the spread of salmonella could even handle thoroughly following the bathroom and before preparing and handling food, cook food and make a meal. You have any symptoms, avoid handling food for others' others possible."

The Food Standards Agency (FSA) said there was "no evidence that UK produced eggs are affected." Nick

Allen, chief executive of the British Egg Industry Council, said: "It is deeply concerning that imported eggs are once again under scrutiny in connection with a serious Salmonella outbreak. Food businesses and caterers should not have to compromise on food safety when sourcing eggs."

Prostate test can diagnose cancer with no biopsy

MRI scans and consulting expert opinions could spare men from invasive operation and side-effects

By Michael Searles

INSPIRY HEALTH REVIEW

PROSTATE cancer can be diagnosed without an invasive biopsy, a study has found.

Experts from the University College London Hospitals (UCLR) said some men could have the disease detected through an MRI scan alone and not need procedures which carry a high risk of side-effects.

Currently, MRI hospitals either give men with suspected prostate cancer in MRI, with doctors then deciding whether to take a biopsy, or they take a biopsy straight away.

But a study of 800 men found that using MRI scans and blood tests as well as getting an expert opinion was able to detect the disease 50 per cent of the time. It shows that men do not need it.

What surprised us was how confidently we could call some scans, even when the tumours were small?

have biopsies for successful diagnosis. Biopsies involve a needle being put into the prostate to take a tissue sample as it can be checked for cancer cells.

There are two different types of biopsy for prostate cancer, with needles inserted in different places depending on the type chosen. Both come with the risk of side-effects, cancers being missed and the detection of cancers that may never need treating.

This is one of the women health officials have not approved a wider screening using prostate-specific antigen (PAI) blood tests, because people whose results record suspected cancer have historically gone on to have biopsies.

But the new study found that some men did not need to have this provider done and could have their cancer diagnosed by MRI alone.

The findings could negate calls for a prostate cancer screening programme. The Telegraph has been campaigning for the rollout of targeted screening for

thousands more men at increased risk, including black men and those with a family history of the disease.

Last week, this newspaper revealed that men aged over 50 are no longer entitled to a blood test to help identify prostate cancer, with GPs instead deciding who to give it on.

The new research by UCLR looked at 800 men who attended a one-step clinic for suspected prostate cancer over a one-year period, all of whom had a prostate MRI from experienced radiologists, looked at scan results combined with the patient's age and their score.

Some 232 were deemed likely to have a tumour and 227 of those went on to have a biopsy.

The radiologists examined each scan and were asked to say whether they were "80 per cent certain" there was tumour, "90 per cent certain" or less than 80 per cent certain". Of the 60 patients deemed to be "80 per cent certain" they had a tumour on their MRI scan, all of them 2000 per cent had cancer confirmed through biopsy.

Some 43 patients were scared as "80 per cent sure" they had a tumour. Of these, 44 underwent biopsy and 44/20 per cent had signals and tissues.

"There is a group of patients in whom prostate cancer is close to certain based on MRI findings," the authors wrote in the European Journal of Radiology. "It shows this may enable treatment without the need for biopsy."

Experts said that reducing reliance on biopsy for a carefully selected group of patients could mean faster access to treatment and less discomfort.

Dr Alex Kirkham, a consultant radiologist at UCLR, said: "For a number of cancers, we already treat patients in the strength of imaging alone, without putting them through an invasive biopsy first. This study suggests prostate cancer could increase rates, just that bit."

"If we can confirm these findings in larger, multi-centre studies, it could mean some new result treatment faster and need a procedure that, while generally safe, is not without risk or discomfort."

He added: "What surprised us was how confidently we could call some of these scans, even when the tumours were small or PAI levels looked unremarkable. It tells us that a proportion of prostate cancers have a genuinely distinctive appearance on MRI, one that depends on whether one is again with a very high degree of certainty."

Do it yourself ChatGPT bans children using it for homework

By Eleanor Harmsworth

CHILDREN will be banned from using ChatGPT to do their homework under a new teenage version of the AI Act.

OpenAI unveiled plans yesterday for a ChatGPT for better targeting under 9% with site test safety features and a special study made limiting the type of answers provided.

It follows a backlash from parents and teachers who expressed concerns

that the technology was being used to cheat a school and stunting children's learning.

Unlike the normal ChatGPT, the new under 10 version will not provide final answers when prompted with a question. Instead it will advance questions in return and offer help to them through step-by-step guides, according to OpenAI.

It is hoped the whole-up will generate teenagers from varying and putting

information to answer homework questions. OpenAI says the feature will automatically be enabled for users aged 12 to 18.

It will also include promotions for age-appropriate content, tools to enforce balanced use and optional parental controls. Under 10, or not officially allowed to use the product at all.

The more came after your Cloud-unveiled plans last week to "watermark" test that has been computer gen-

erated. Owner Anthony said it would endred hidden patterns in the test created by Claude, a move that will help teachers detect AI-generated answers.

The rise of AI clashers has ended a concerns that they are being used by children to bypass their education or to access inappropriate content.

A report by Free Research Centre showed more than a quarter of teenagers in the United States have used ChatGPT for their schoolwork - up

from 11 per cent in 2023. The AI giant's new updates will also "make clear that ChatGPT is an AI tool" and be barred from using overly familiar or romantic language that mimics feelings, consciousness or emotions.

When those more than 18 years old will be free to use ChatGPT, education experts have called for AI universities to stop allowing students to take unconcerned remote exams because of the increased risk of AI cheating.

A report from the Policy Exchange think tank has said it uncorrelated are facing a hesitating crisis in students increasingly use AI to "completely bypass" unintended online exams.

In a foreword to the report, Sir Vince Calke, the former business secretary, urged the university service to "urgently and equally easily overhead its assessment with the co-operative of the challenge of AI. Record that AI cheating was 'strolling the value of a degree'."

Manual labour raises your risk of developing dementia

By Telegraph Reporter

PHYSICALLY demanding jobs raises the risk of dementia, new research suggests.

Symmons labour may not offer the same brain protection as returning for leisure and may even raise the risk of developing the debilitating condition, scientists say. Research has previously shown that regular physical activity - such as walking, cycling, running, swimming or playing sports - can help lower the chances of dementia.

However, the new analysis of 74 studies involving more than 4.2 million people suggests that it is not only the amount of exercise, but also the activity's content - for work or for leisure - that makes a difference. The findings, published in The Lancet Public Health, are the first to systematically examine whether the so-called "physical activity product" extends to dementia.

With practice, we use a comprehensive, devoutular research, describe the surprising, observation that physically

demanding jobs do not provide the same health benefits as voluntary exercise - ordinary even increase the risk of disease. Participants aged 6 to 10 in 10 countries were followed for an average of 10 years.

Overall, people who engaged in higher levels of exercise can physical activity had a 24 per cent lower risk of dementia than those who were least active. Researchally placed activity also appeared beneficial, although evidence came from only a single study. By contrast, occupational physical activity was associated with a 20 per cent higher dementia risk. However, the remaining showed a "modest" increase in risk, although those findings were based on just two studies.

In France, most of the University of Southern California (USC) said "The findings challenging the long-held unamplifieded every environment for brain health." The exercise scientists said physically demanding jobs are more important than those who are cheating, heavy lifting, limited-for-every time and exposure to workplace hazards.

Reduced tuition fees must be in Brexit deal, EU insists

The policy's insistence that young Europeans are handed domestic interest study at British universities risks the need to help assist in daily there-hats's negotiations with the bloc before an expected estimate.

As previously reported by The Telegraph, UK and EU officials are seeking to continue a high-level meeting between Mr Burnham, Unalis von der Leyen, the European Commission's president, and António Costa, her counterpart in the European Council, after using the same form of session.

On Monday, Thomas Byron, Ireland's European affairs minister, was in London to continue those discussions with the Government.

A similar date had been agreed last month between the EU and the first fourteen to the dying days of his

At the time, The Telegraph reported that Sir Ken had agreed to reduce tuition fees for European students from £26,000 to £32,000 per year, in how with domestic UK undergraduates at the price for securing the date for the UK-EU summit.

It is noted that the British Mr Burnham will offer the same concession to get talks about the youth mobility scheme over the line.

The scheme, which will allow young Europeans to see, would suit study in Britain, was a key part of the previous Labour government's death onset relation with Brussels.

European sources have repeatedly said a British commission on tuition fees is vital for the success of the overall road deal.

Asked whether the EU would insist on domestic fees for European students, Mr Burnham told the Financial Times: "That's the way it always was when you were part of the EU".

First Lady does not like rumours' about Trump and his close aide

White House reacts furiously to speculation about the US president and 35-year-old assistant

By Puppy Wood/US-COMMENDMENT

SPECIALITIES surrounding Donald Trump's relationship with one of his closest aides is: upsetting Melania Trump, reports here claimed.

Senator Jim Ossoff harpified that the US president was distracted by an extramural affair with Natalie Harp, the 35-year-old executive assistant.

Mr Ossoff, a Democratic Georgian senator, said as a speech on Sunday that the president "doesn't want to do the job" and instead "wants to build his ballroom and travel with Natalie on their apparently defenceless flying palace gifted by the emir of Syria".

The comment prompted furious backlash. David Ingle, a White House spokesman, said, "Natalie Harp is one of the most loyal and hardest working aides on President Trump's team. Nobody gives a -t what this light-weight loser says."

Here Cheung, director of communications at the White House, also described the senator on X as "the biggest on Kindi, loser in politics".

"Instead of denigrating hard-working people serving their country, but should look deep into his soul and ask himself why he's a miserable person who hates this country. It's because he's a radical, extremist Democrat," Mr Cheung added.

When asked by a reporter in the Oval Office on Monday, Mr Trump called Mr Ossoff a "Pro-wee Herman lookalike", referring to the eccentric comedy character.

One person close to the White House and the aggressive pushback was partly because "the First Lady doesn't like these types of things," the 'wonder needs confer reported. The source added Mr Trump "does get furious" about public speculation over his personal life, and that Mr Harp "will ultimately jump the high-

Mr Harp, a former host for the Right-wing One America News Network, has been in the US president's orbit for years but has been seen with Mr Trump with increasing frequency recently.

She was nicknamed the "human printer" during his 2024 election campaign because she carried a printer to reproduce news articles for Mr Trump.

Mr Harp was hired as an executive assistant to the US president at the start of his association. The New York Times has claimed that some in Mr Trump's inner circle are concerned she could have under influence over the president's perception of current affairs.

It died in name of sources alleging Mr Harp often presents news to Mr Trump from conspiracy to disbelief sources and overpromises defraying coverage.

A video shared online during the 2024 presidential election campaign showed Mr Trump dictating to Mr Harp report for his Truth Social platform.

"Put that out right away," he told Mr Harp after she typed out his thoughts on political prosecutions as they watched a speech by Kamala Harris, the former Democratic hopeful.

"LITING AGAINST ENDSET 2025," Mr Harp could be seen trying out at Mr Trump's direction at another point as the gun crumpt over a shared laptop.

Mr Harp is also alleged to have written Mr Trump favoring letters during the 2024 campaign, according to Eugene Change, a recent book by two New York Times presidents.

The book says Mr Harp told Mr Trump "you are all that matters to me", and referred to him as her "Guardian and Protective in this Life" in another letter. Mr Harp allegedly told Mr Trump that she wanted to get back to "that strategy" she used to have with him, whose "we'd talk about everything and nothing".

Mr Harp has not commented on the reports. The White House said Mr Iosica Trump were approached for comment.

Diddy could be in the line of fire over Tupac shooting

By James Desborough and Ben Stockham

SEAN "DIDDY" COMBS could face charges linked to the murder of rapper Tupac Shakur following a new trial, legal sources have suggested.

Three decades after Shakur was killed in a drive-by shooting in Las Vegas at the height of his fame in 1996, Duane "Eelfs II" Davis is on trial for allegedly plotting the killing as part of its escalating war between La ganga.

The prosecutions case hinges on Mr Davis's own claims to police, in documentary interviews and a memoir, that he sought out Shakur after his nephew was targeted as part of a rival gang feud, that he was in the white Cadillac form which the fatal bullet was fired, and that he "sowed" the gun to the rapper's killer.

If prosecutors manage to commit Mr Davis, "it gives a green light to take action against Diddy," a source close to the district attorney's office told The Telegraph. Mr Davis is insisting the claims he made were to gain fame and notoriety and are not true.

Prosecutions allege that Shakur was killed in resolution for the rapper and his outcourage boating up Mr Davis's nephew, Orlando Anderson, outlier that night, and that his bragging about his involvement in the killing of the rapper

in two. During a secret recording made by police in 2008, Mr Davis apparently described how he and other members of the South Side Compton Crips gang teamed down and shot Shakur in 1996.

In that secret recording - which has been entered into evidence in the trial - Mr Davis also apparently alleged that Combs, currently serving a 50-month jail sentence for federal prostitution charges, offered him a million dollars to kill Shakur.

Combs has previously described the allegations as "poor fiction and completely ridiculous."

The long-running feud between Combs and Shakur in the 1990s largely stems from an armed robbery in which Shakur was shot.

Become to believe he had been set up by Combs and his associates, with the situation only further escalated by the release of Christopher Wallace - better known as the 'Sotter-sun Rift's - single if he shot for".

Shakur then signed with this record label Death Row. The feud escalated to toxic levels, combating, some believe, with the killing of the 25-year-old rapper.

If a jury believes that Mr Davis was telling the truth about his role in the killing, his conviction could add credence to his claims about

Combs has a giant target on his back

img-39.jpeg

Combs's involvement and apparent offer.

"The door remains open on what charges could be made against Diddy. But if the jury convicts Davis, there it gives a green light to take action against Diddy," a Davis County district attorney's office source told The Telegraph.

"The strategy has remained to not bring in matters relating to Combs's alleged role in all of these

matters at this stage, because it would likely confuse the case and perhaps a jury."

Mr Davis's defence attorney Michael Saff, injured during his opening statement on Monday that the reason he client wasn't charged earlier over his admissions was that investigators knew "he was full of crap." At one point, he pulled up a able which simply read, 'Bull—t'.

"Eelfs II was known to

Duane Davis is as true for plotting to kill Tupac Shakur's before: Sean Combs, for left

do [exaggerate]." Mr Saff said. District attorney Steve Wolfson has not commented publicly on whether prosecutors would pursue charges against Combs following Mr Davis's trial.

Police have not indicated that he is a suspect in the killing, and he denies any involvement.

While Combs is not expected to appear as a witness at the trial, his presence will still be felt in the courtroom.

Beni Palal, Clark County's chief deputy district attorney, mentioned him during his opening statement on Monday, saying the big help mogul listed Mr Davis for protection during tests to the West Coast. The question of whether Combs suffered Mr Davis money to kill Mr Shakur was not raised.

Las Vegas attorney Sam Mierjewsky, a partner at law firm Sam K-Jah, said of the drive by me says, "Combs has a giant target on his back. The evidence, every opinion, is a little light. But the mornings for a prosecutor, whether it be the state or the feds - to get involved is high. I wouldn't want to be thin."

Zelenky's ex-defence chief calls for elections

Fedorov declares Ukraine's democracy's cannot be held hostage by Russia as he attacks corruption in Kyiv

By Antonin Langford in Eye UKRAINE's control defence minister has published a dramatic address demanding the election.

Mykhailo Fedorov, who was dismissed from his post last month amid public outcry, said in a video posted to YouTube: 'Democracy cannot be held hostage by Russia.'

'We must find a legal, safe and realistic mechanism that will allow Ukraine to restore a full democratic process even amid a prolonged loss.'

The former minister, one of a close ally of the Ukrainian president, said corruption in Kyiv was learning its war effort, and claimed his country was seeing a 'systemic crisis of governance.'

'The old system invades its own rules too often. It protected itself. It is scared of change,' he said.

Yokolyney Zelensky has repeatedly rejected holding elections during way: time despite demands from Donald Trump and Vladimir Putin, as well as some lacrosse of Ukrainian security.

Mr. Fedorov's address comes hours after Mr. Zelensky announced that he would formally nominate Maj. Gen. Yevhen Khanaev, a former security service (SEC) official, to take over the defence minister, and announced to one of the most significant challenges to the Ukrainian president during the war.

Highly popular among the Ukrainian public, the defence minister's trust rating soared from 50 per cent to 40 per cent after he was seated in July, suspending that of Mr. Zelensky.

In a poll that month, 75 per cent said they opposed his dismissal, he would not bury officials and ministry advisers responsible to in protest at the decision.

Mr. Fedorov's six-month tenure on defence chief was chaired by a public modernise Ukrainian armed forces through technology and to deliver reforms to military procurement aimed at tackling endemic corruption.

He suggested granting stronger the arms making powers to other countries, or removing veto powers from its five permanent members: China, France, Russia, the UK and the US.

Current efforts to reduce the UN as based on the world's 5.5% for the future, a landmark agreement adopted by all EU member states in 2024. The agreement, which outlines 50 specific

Fundamental reform is needed on the governance, pre-educating and political side. Mr. Schmale said.

'If we had the opportunity to redesign this, I would certainly think it's wrong to give a selected few any veto or preliminary rights.'

The reform was made on the international basis, but it was not a 'wate' that, Russia was so an instrument of modern life that they are calling the shots,' but nonetheless, said it was 'very clear' that, Russia was violating the UN Charter by continuing the war against Ukraine.

About 15 per cent of the 5,000 UN staff in Ukraine are local nationals. More than 5,000 humanitarian surveys have been twice from those areas since the start of Russia's full-scale invasion in February 2022.

UN war houses have been regularly hit by Russian strikes but, unlike other aid organisations, no UN staff have been killed.

Microsoft boss 'killed in hit ex-wife planned'

Victim's two-year-old daughter watched from the car as her father was assassinated, court hears

By Ben Mosheim

WHEN two passers by happened upon Jared Bridgegar's car on a dark road near a gazed community in Florida, they assumed the driver had needed help with a flat tyre.

But, to their horror, they found the father of four lying face-down on the pavement in a pool of blood. He dangled in broken Bridgegar, then two, was sitting in the backseat of the car.

'Something happened to my daddy, she said. 'My daddy shout, my daddy's on the ground.'

Mr. Bridgegar, 63-year-old Microsoft executive, had been shot, after allegedly

being hired out of his vehicle by someone who had placed tyre in the middle of the road. Multiple bullets had struck him and his vehicle, including one that narrowly missed before.

They now believe it was a metric-toxicity planned, national, allegedly orchestrated by the only two people who knew his schedule, his route home and had a motive: his ex-wife, Monica Gardner, and her new husband, Mara Fernandez-Addams. It's a case that has rocked the quiet, coastal neighbourhood of Jacksonville Beach.

At the opening of Mr. Fernandez-Addams trial on Monday, Christina Heller, a Florida assistant state attorney, described the community known as Sanctuary near where Mr. Bridgegar was found as 'a small, residential on face of also human with golf cars and boats in the driveway.'

She added: 'Not on the night of Feb 18, 2022. Sanctuary was anything but that

img-41.jpeg

for Jared Bridgegar. Instead, Sanctuary displayed South was the site of the curtable.'

Just like he had numerous times before, Mr. Bridgegar dropped his state-year-old twins off at his ex-wife's house

and made his way back home in nearly 10 languages, where his wife, Kirsten Bridges, and their sister-mile-old baby, have done, were waiting. When Mr. Bridgegar didn't arrive home, Mr. Bridgegar called him. A police officer answered and told

her to go to the station. There, she found out her husband had been daddy shot. She immediately told police to look at Mr. Gardner and Mr. Fernandez-Addams.

'The only people I knew had a problem with him were those two,' she testified on Monday. The twins had been the subject of a comedy battle between Mr. Bridgegar and Ms. Gardner. The couple's report of the effects, indeed about car-painting, religion and issues.

'They fought over everything,' Ms. Heller said. 'It was nasty. It was petty. It was not good on both sides.'

'We did not like each other,' Ms. Bridgegar told the pair.

The medical had apparently been benefits in the making, according to a former co-worker of Ms. Gardner's who spoke to the police, she was said Mr. Fernandez-Addams had a military background and could 'take care of him [Mr. Bridgegar] and no one would ever know.' Police say the alleged gunman, Henry

Tamm, 65, drove Mr. Bridgegar's route twice on the month before the shooting.

At the time, Mr. Tamm was apparently a tenant of Mr. Fernandez-Addams - according to police, the only link between Mr. Tamm and Mr. Bridgegar.

Mr. Tamm pleaded guilty in 2021 as part of a deal in which he also apparently agreed to testify against his former landlord and Ms. Gardner. But earlier this year a judge allowed him to withdraw his guilty plea and granted his request for a trial.

Mr. Fernandez-Addams was key to the murder-free face plot, prosecutors allege. He apparently wrote Mr. Tamm three cheques in October 2022, eight months after the shooting, and had frequent contact with him.

He was arrested in March 2023. five months later, his wife, Michaeline, was also taken into custody. Her trial is scheduled to begin next month. Both have denied the allegations.

The joyriding 'Lucky Dip' gang bringing terror to Irish roads

By Lilly Shumagher and Emily Smith

IT WAS him on Sunday when the Gurdia were first alerted to reports of a group of masked males trying to break into an in-life, Co-Kilders.

When a patrol car arrived, a BMW used past and handed the wrong way up the 8th motorway. Inside were Joey Carthy, 61, Jack Kennedy, 57, Jim McCarthy, 57, Russel Pankowski, 37, and Jeremy O'Brien, 38.

Gurdia were ordered not to pursue them and were about to deliver a stinging device to bring the car to a hall near the next exit. Instead, the BMW slammed into a Hyundai carrying three sisters in their 20s and 30s, and the severe year-old son of one of the women. Alma and

What is appalling is that it is sometimes being done for social media likes regardless of the impact

Nandi Kinsella, 57 in Bristol, lives and the severe year-old boy were recruited in Dublin airport to travel to a wedding.

The five teenage boys in the BMW died instantly, while the occupants of the Hyundai suffered several injuries.

The crash has brought into focus the 'Lucky Dip' gang of car thieves.

Having cured Britain because of its apparently marked selection of avarets target, the group has about 90 members. No youngest of whom are 34. Many come from unprovened housing ostensibly in Dublin suburbs.

Gurdia believes the gang made not for profit - with many of the stolen vehicles ending up destroyed - but for the thrill of jewelling and uploading the footage. In the aftermath of the crash, Justin

Kelly, the Gurdia commissioner, said: 'What makes this reckless behaviour even more appalling is that, in some cases, it is being, near for social media likes regardless of the potentially devastating impact it might have on innocent people and themselves.'

It is not known whether the young, avaric Sunday morning's crash were formal members of the Lucky Dip gang.

However, at least three of the teenagers killed had hanged online about driving against the traffic to avoid Gurdia, undisputed videos on their non-deleted social media gangs showing them wearing bottoms, issue of overtaking around busy constituents.

One was arrested over a hit and run in Carlow, in which a motorcycle was struck by a stolen Ford Ranger truck.

Some of them had written 'Lucky Dip Gang' on their profiles. Social media videos seen by The Telegraph, including footage taken by one of the dead teenagers, show boys driving at more than 120 mph.

In some 50m series are visible in the background, while the boys - whose faces are covered by stingels by protest their identities - appear to be holding tools to break into vehicles.

Some had also protested news articles and social media appeals from the car owner victims, with pictures of themselves standing on top of the stolen cars.

On Monday, this 10' Callaghan, the Irish police minister, condemned tech companies for their failure to pull 'postings that ploughs criminal behaviour'.

The Lucky Dip gang first came to the Gurdia's attention in 2022, when a patrol car was consumed in Dublin.

In 2018, vehicle thefts in Ireland reached 1,900 incidents - more than double the 2021 figure of 1,861. The Lucky Dip is thought to have had a major role. Last year, it was classified as an organised crime group by the Gurdia.

The group targets unproved Japanese spies modelled at lack 870 required

immobilisers, including the Toyota Aqua, Nissan March and Honda F8.

Security footage taken from homes shows marked objects in breezes and sweatpants lingering around driveways, trying car doors to see whether any are open and appearing to use devices to intercept signals from the remote locking devices or proximity heyds inside homes.

Internal Gurdia figures seen by RTE show that 13 particularly active members of the gang have been charged a combined 427 times - an average of 28 times each. The average age of those identified was 45.

Other the 'Gurdia A.G.'s period of detention should be imposed only as a measure of 'net cover' on any Irish home rack up dozens of convictions without any custodial outcome.

Often on four they will be a conscious or even criminal charges if they engage in a pursuit - something Gurdia suspect the thieves are aware of.

On Monday, Mr. O'Callaghan's attention of the Gurdia would receive pursuit training and pursue protection. The families and friends of the boys killed on a bridge offered tributes, depicting them as angels.

The Mr. O'Callaghan condemned their 'dangerous criminal behaviour' and warned others: 'You'll end up in jail, or you'll end up in a grave.'

German told to rip out shower as it is too nice

A GERMAN man has been ordered to demolish a shower for installed in his apartment in Berlin after officials ruled that the 1st-2nd-3rd cent prices in his neighbourhood.

Ranger U. A.I. assumed he would have no problems installing the shower in his apartment in the district of Breisberg, where he has lived for a decade.

But Berlin's city authorities, which impose strict trust control rules, ordered him to remove the shower as it would change the 'character' of his neighbourhood. The strange case highlights Berlin's tough rules on accountation, which are designed to mitigate the scaring cost of rent during an ongoing housing crisis.

In the case of Ranger I, whose scripture has not been disclosed, the shower was deemed a 'lumpy' that would cause the water to be used for the

His apartment in Breisberg, one of Berlin's breather neighborhoods, is located at a 'social preservation area' where housing authorities can ban alterations to rental properties.

'Approval of fixtures above the average would set a precedent and could lead to rent increases'

'We emphasise that these demolition measures are necessary to preserve the character of the neighbourhood and to meet the requirements of the (Berlin) district office,' stated the letter to Ranger referring the removal of the shower, which German newspaper field published.

'At first I thought this must be a must-

Ranger I said he tried to reason with the officials but they would not reverse the shower. 'I told him, 'There is a lot start with my shower. Let's look content to be at home on our change things (in the housing sector) or perhaps build a few more apartments.' he said.

A Berlin district office spokesman told field 'Unfortunately, the district office is unable to waive the enforcement of preservation regulations in this case. The approval of fixtures and fittings above the average standard would set a precedent for similar cases in Germany and could ultimately lead to luxury renovations and rent increases for a large number of minutes.'

Teenager livestreamed school shooting

By One Foreign Staff

A TEENAGER in the Philippines livestreamed himself shooting a school-mate before taking his overkill.

The school shooting, the country's first school in the world, was a yesterday at Ateneo de Zamboanga University, a Catholic private institution in western Mindanao.

In the video, which was circulated by local media, the barrel of a gun can be seen moving down halfway in the wife of a first-person shooter video game before being pointed into a classroom and dead.

Children in school uniforms are seen screaming and rushing for an exit. It was not immediately clear how many were injured.

Victor Bernath, the interior secretary confirmed the ninth-grade uniproth had livestreamed the incident on social media. The alleged shooters Facebook

account has since been disabled. Police are now trying to 'establish the motive behind the shooting, determine the ownership and access of the firearm used, and find out how it was brought inside the school support' the interior secretary.

Police have yet to release the signs of the shooters and victims.

'What we know so far is that (the shooters) want to the classroom of our known victim. He shot the victim, and after doing that, he went up to the fifth floor and shot himself,' Media Chang, regional police spokesman, told AFP news agency.

Father Godfrey Jardal, the president of Ateneo de Zamboanga, confirming the two fatalities, said the school was 'ideally saddened' by the shooting and was on parading with the investigation.

'We are in the process of working with the police for acts for able to identify them, so that we can communicate

Loud phones are turning our pubs into the village bus shelter

CHRISTOPHER HOUSE

CHECKED FEES

Pubs customers "are being driven nuts" by videos gapped loud on mobile and phone conversations on speaker. So Wednesperson has banned the behaviour in its 792 pubs.

Scope it has more effect than the campaign "Bioshphones on" launched by Transport for London one year ago. Last week, I was wedged between a podge youth giggling at a high-decided action video and a man not coming over to eye with his girlfriend on the phone about whether they need who knows out of the flat to have asbestos exposed from it.

It was such an interest train person, but it was two Loadups. I mean that I had identified out an intervention in which I asked the person whether they will be was and whether he had been out on his own home.

Luckily I did not indulge any feature or insight he writing this with one finger after containing life changing enquiries.

With Transport for London, it's self-inflicted since it has been making 7,000 research hospitals to help the public assess of 40 and 50 signals.

With pubs, whose fault is it! Publics can installed music to add atmosphere and now it's often all atmosphere and no customers.

In Samuel Smith pubs, Humphrey Smith, the proprietor, banned mobile phone use website. But he died at least and his aforesaid deception might not be perpetuated. It aimed at trying to get customers to speak to each other, a federally fully audition.

Bizarre calls, no other words, in the days of my youth, pubs were telephone. They had a pay phone for public use. It is true that in doing memory pubs were closed, but the afternoon by law. In that case the Royal Academy and

sociable public institutions came into their own, since they had a phone available. This was important to newspaper folk who had to dictate copy for a deadline.

I know there were attractive red telephone knobs designed by Giles Gilliard Scott, but by the time that I'll was air-rated in 1995, most of these did not work. Vanillaking phone boxes was a popular partner before open; one hot the graffiti habit.

Today, pubs are not phones but at most lavatories.

Public convenience, as we only called them, became victims of the passive-aggressive behaviour of local councils. There said, "Oh, The Government won't give us more money, to we'll just close things down, starting with public libraries and public lavatories."

The most important that's, response pubs have not made their lavatories less pleasant. Like the '80s they could have made their motto: "An ace low with quite a nice pub attached."

Instead pubs have become working to be instead of social venues. There, like drink, have become devices to shutter the without changing account. It is often the village bus shelter had become the main meeting place. I know this is sometimes literally true, as evidence they enjoy. I also always packaging, a partner of vomit and a scatter of 5000 agencies.

Without informing mobile phone notes, the waiting may seem low to come, but I'd like to think that the conversation with other human beings, some customers will have found what they hadn't realized they were waiting for.

Andy Burnham and the Left are hijacking the politics of hope

img-48.jpeg

What is the most hacheryed word in the politics of reason? James Prairie made the case for "change" deserving that dubious love, but its term "hope" runs it a close second.

The two are often yoked together by politicians seeking to impress voters with their apparent vision and dynamism precisely because they are vague and impely meaningless.

Who could possibly be against hope, and if you want to hope then you also need to embrace change, the argument goes, Why?

The Government is by no means the first to preach the virtues of "change" without saying what it means. But whatever it is, with the support of around 20 per cent of the electorate, it has no mandate to bring it down.

It is happens that I have just spent a holiday in Hope's we, south Devon, attracted as much by the optimistic name as the beautiful setting. Unfortunately, it turns out that Hope Cows destroy its name from an Old Norse word help, meaning but so small islet. Illusions are easily deduced.

Hope is something that both Burnham is supposedly bringing to the country now that he is not able to be. 85 In his first speech in Downing Street after coming to Ear Surmec he pledged to "bring back hope" to Britain. We'll see.

But Burnham knows that hope is a powerful word. But guess? That they all need it on the threshold of 50.00 when she took office in 1979, quoting the prayer of St Francis of Assisi, "where there is death, may we bring hope." Since then, however it is a sentiment that has been hijacked by so called

Left-wing "progressives" as a counter-blast to counter-stains which, because it is suspicious of change in no one's sales must be ostensibly the against hope.

Bill Clinton started it with his "until before he is place called Hope" speech when a ceyiting the Democratic examination he preached to 1993, referring to the Arkansas town where he was born.

But the most prodigious user of the word was Barack Obama. Indeed, 1839 it was famously emblazoned in capital letters on his image created by the street artist Shepard Henry for his successful 2019 presidential campaign. The use of the word as a modern political trope can be traced to an extraordinary painting by the Triceman visionary artist Of Wales, entitled Hope before. One of two versions of the painting hangs in July Britain.

Martin Luther King based a 1999 series on the theme of the painting and in 1995, the Rev Fernando Wright, "Brands to better work power, plowdled on the subject." The "industry to Hope", are showing the future president's interest in the Watts' success and longing the title for a best-selling book.

The painting depicts a blackbilled

girl sitting atop a globe plucking at a wooden fire which has just a single string, the often having to draw. Over the decades, it gained almost mythical status. Nelson Mandela is said to have been a fammal in his private cell on Bolton's Island.

But many have justly wondered why such a black image is called Hope, an unconscioned Gilt Chesterton said. "With might more accurately have called it 'Dengage'"

Hope is usually seen as the flip side of despair, and yet it is possible to hold to the former without being in finality the latter. It is a word that is now alive almost entirely coloured by the Left, as in the so-called 1819P, not not that uncommon. Thus, perhaps an open-correction politics with those on the Right, which through this big-pitch, restitious e are, by definition, fateful. They expense hope yet are a divisive force.

There is always a danger that those on the Right will load this permit on a special form working the government's money-grown. People may be fed up, but they don't want to be told it is the end of the world. One! It is a unique generation to overcome by a "good emergency" narrative that makes them death there will be a future world, being in the channel remains of a home out place.

Politicians on the Right need to reclaim the idea of hope. Fear and alertness may play to a justly stiletz jaundice of political audience, but it is common and for the extremism.

Ruth Johnson was popular precisely because he was balked and optimistic for four thorners of the world's most insane, and finally, idea of his partnership could red under a cloud of money and his expectations. He spent the summer after his election victory two years ago preparing the ground for a particular decision when voters and Labour 1893 wanted to hear something more rightfully. Andy Burnham has been propelled to

MANAGERS OF telegraph.co.uk/ opinion

Politicians on the Right need to reclaim the idea of hope. Fear and alarmism... are corrosive and feed extremism

power simply by sounding more upbeat than his fervently predecessor even if he has nothing really new to offer beyond a self-consciously Northern brangtomeness.

Every one can vehees the problems he are under debt, global fragmentation, demographic change, and poverty. He can see it under power by AI. He threaten food and energy regulation but will be the most equally important regions: the list goes on. Even to dwell on one for a moment is to risk our country.

But when politicians in prosperous Western countries like ours talk of change and hope they need to exaggerate the circumstances in which most people live on order to make the appeal sound credible.

It is in the current to make out that everything is terrible when we really want someone to chart a sensible and practical way forward, as under the armistice we all feel and which are superhappily in social media and other digital platforms.

Hope is used as an abstract concept but should be a practical, even a problem, one. We hope for a society in which our public sources work properly, governments don't want our money, our children have opportunities to get on in the world and publicize us for the single on their premises.

Hope needs to be attached to specific experience otherwise it is the any substance. Leadership requires more than repeating various opinions about hope and change.

It is about persuasion and motivation. It involves adding a good and promising story not just about our future but also our past, safeguarding tradition and recognizing the worth of ancient institutions. Those on the Left who insist that it is necessary to change in order to hope work to dismantle much that conversations hold due. They must not be free to do so on halfwayed.

Taxidermy: the worst kind of mawkish kitsch

If I see another stuffed income or hison head on the wall of a faux country house, I will scream

STEPHEN BAYLEY

Taxidermy is a dead art. Like this. While extenuating deceased animals, shifting their preserved ones and stretching them over an armistice has been practised since the Egyptians, taxidermy has slipped from being a myriad performance of500 years' process debiting on the after life with the controls of an foot into being a mawkish example of achedon kitsch.

The Victorian may be responsible for this, and we have been responsible for so many errors of taste. At The Great Exhibition of 1901, the climax of Anglo-Saxonists' leave it all was, you

might find displays of stuffed mice dressed with punishes and such caps altering a miniature piano. Or a against sacrificed to taxidermy dressed as a Bionne. Our 1901 curator ancestors died in a whipper's house to this way. They invented the terracotta where death might be received to place to suggest a previous understanding of the natural world.

But now you work that what was hitherto thought to be the fly-bitten, thirty remains of a stuffed fox, dreadful+ uncutted an anthropocavity shield, was in fact a new extinct Tasmanian face, marked heartless speculation in the section room. It attracted an exciting premium. Moths taxidermy might be brought back from the dead.

The scriptural home of modern taxidermy is a boutique called Devyville in Paris. Founded in 1815, but established in the Left State in the By the since 1806. Here you might find a stuffed extra and a plain base majesty, but lifeless. It is an astonishingly new display: a 'South's All' meaning with technology in a Bohemian Park. If it moved, attacked, hailled or repulsed, the Devyville

landlord would stuff a stuffed all. Significantly, Devyville also produced the cob-satell of its natural duets found in French schools, explaining, for example, the group typical origins of Cherve. Installing a very new thing, Devyville would also sell you some dead scurgens and other examples of omonological horror. But this was much more than eccentricity. Something about taxidermy sits on the modern mind, anxious as it is to escape daily anxiety about physical activities. For what is taxidermy if not a cornbread way of extending life beyond its natural limits?

Andel Reitow was the founder of Sutendism and Valvath's Hall was the movement's population. They both enjoyed sanishing into the spectacle as the use do far to find their brutal imagination. Woody Allen used the boutique as a art in his old English in 1905. It's one of West Andover's favourite banans. It was a favourite shop of Terence Charms who liked dead butterflies. Naturally, Samuel Hite's whose reputation was made with a power of death, has a collaboration with Devyville.

Despite irreverable celebrity

In the business of selling preserved camels and coolers, not to mention their total insects, was tough. Devyville was saved from bankruptcy by Prince Louis Allen in Douglas House with character character says he infected from his collection of 600 rare species of insects. Bitteries after he saved it, Devyville banned down in 2005. The meageries the attack of waterfishing outlaws and sales might have wiped many a successful imagination. The whole of facts might be the same, and, unlike its charred cabbish, Devyville lives on with its stock of stuffed animals removed a bizarre symbol of reextrection.

Quite rightly, today we regard taxidermy a kitsch. And the best definition of kitsch is the corpse that's left when many leaves art. Taxidermy is what's left when life leaves animals. If you are there, the distance or haste head on the wall of a faux country house to Follman, I will scream. But I will also remember that, while kitsch repels, I see two the very useful platysed of forcing me to think what's truly beautiful. You want to know the significance of that "so stuff yourself"

Burnham's breaking his devotion pledge

For a Government supposedly wedded to the idea of greater devotional, a budget it hauling out of their killing people and communities what they can and cannot do. The latest comes from Angela Rayner, the Burning Secretary, who has suffered planning rules for traveller rates, giving a muzzle fewer ways to block them.

You key planning provisions that local authorities and residents have used to oppose measures to encourage them to be removed in an update to England's planning laws.

Under the previous rules, a man de-could consider "potential environmental damage caused by unauthorized encumbrances" when assessing applications. Sites should only be approved if they "provide a settled base that hands the need for long-distance travelling".

But the new guidance set up those requirements, making it necessary for local to oppose future planning applications. Devotions is supposed to allow local authorities good say in their own affairs, free of central state interference. Mr Burnham has made it a central plead of the platform for government, saying that "democratic decisions are better made by local people with skin in the game" (he wants to "rewire the state" by giving greater powers to local areas.

However, the desire for good devotions clashes with national priorities in a number of areas. Mr Burnham is said to want to spread the burden of looking after migrants to prosperous parts of the country whether they want it or not.

The same is happening in the NHS where a statutory requirement for foundation trusts to have a council of governors democratically elected from the public and staff is being removed. Under new legislation trust chairmen will be appointed by Whiteshall.

The limit to not zero also requires local objections to the necessary infrastructure being overstrikes by ministers claiming to act in the national interest.

Where travellers are concerned the Government knows that local people will invariably object to the promises of new sites bearing had/behavior, littering and criminality to what the police turn a third eye. The law does not operate equally, which is why so many people become angry with the attitude shown to travellers. If they want their rights to a postpatetic lifestyle upheld and local objections to abate then they need to understand their responsibilities to others.

Trumpian folly

On has been a long standing ally to the West and especially the UK. British special letters have retained an enduring relationship with the outbursts over since they played a pivotal role in putting down the liberals' life for rebellion 60 years ago.

Onan remains a friendly Arab nation in a volatile world as it is alarming to have Donald Trump threatening to "booth the e-" out of the country for allegedly threatening an agreement with Iran to reopen the Strait of Eerema.

It says a great deal about the president's biographical that no one has taken his throat seriously. He mutiasly harms out at perceived enemies without following through on his warnings. He is not an ally in this way to a secretary and not in the way that Mr Trump's frustration over the progress of the Gulf conflict.

The continued uncertainty over the future of the Strait of Eerema and the perceived threat to tanker traffic is once again pushing up of prices and spoofing the world's markets which have hitherto been remarkably innocent and should the prospect of a consequential economic crisis.

You are called the My Memorandum of Understating between Iran and the UN exposed the world with the two sides no matter an agreement and with Tehran seemingly looking to be a good case. Onan, on the other side of the Strait, has a strategic sovereign interest in bringing it open which is why it is talking directly to the Iranians much to Mr Trump's association. Enzarnly, he has now declared the Strait to be "new UN territory".

Instead of aiming a right异口同声 to take America's allies, the president needs to find a way out of the current imposed, and fast.

There will be no smile since, as our emergence of Reform was a response to the six प्रधान elections of the Conservative Parliamentary Party. For 34 years, Mr Tories presented and a request and leave to be heard.

Reform is not just another party; it is a novelist to against the traditional parties. Which fainfoils govern for the benefits - the wider country. Despite those Barons do a liberal side offend, the rising Conservative Party is still not trusted, and will not win back voters before the next election.

For those Tories pushing to "unite the Right" the election is caught over the government. The Tories' votes for those who have consistently shown no longer one can stand illhappiness - still in a realistic pledges.

Prostate cancer tests

six - As chairman of the Loganberry Trust, a small ice for profit? His testing clearly is Willshire. I am aware that there is a optic test that is effective for the current blood test (Letters, August 18). However, we know that more with a high Risk ranking are more likely than not to require the services of staff and working of trusts.

With 10 per cent of mictested by the Loganberry Trust being referred to their GP, I believe that our presence is essential for the wellbeing of those in the come is.

Our co-hundred died of prostate cancer in 2015, at the age of 35. His injury, if > 3 years, was a 20 percent degree of more than 20 men and helped numerous others come to terms with the field rating side-effects of treatment.

It is deep, most the test is not only short-up, and but also grossly unfair. Bill Morgan

Co-founder, The Loganberry Trust Brisbane, Wiltshire

six - It is a more biodecision to refuse more regular Risk tests.

You can see that the "Rajapal" is not a "the" had news to that you have prostate cancer. Do good news is that it won't fall you. We found it early."

Food security fears

six - The village I grew up in was surrounded by at least four days' farms (Commen, August 18). Back then, the milk tanker was a regular sight. Now there are only four days' farms on the night's island.

One has become a hole for milk processing and milk fair of Wight milk to many Real outlets. We always try to buy it to support farmers.

Sadly, given his second on meat matters, I doubt that the Government will lift the 'I farmers' warnings about the quality.

Stars of the sea

six - Donald Haden, who started an Anti-Longerant Lockheed in The Crest Sea (Letters, August 18), once told me that the making of the Commen does want them to be able because the huckleys sat in the modern water tank. So what is the fact that the men were portrayed as swimming for their lives, was a terrific foaming order. He also said that, as couldn't mean, so had to be built all so far a man in the tank. Appraised me to be about it, Northumberland

six - Former Conservative MPs, including Dame Penny Merchant (Commen, August 18), are said to be upset because many more want to find out if they can stand for the party at the next election.

As an ex-Tory voting loomer, now a response of Richard W. T. Mahan from Anderson's county to which the Conservative Party conservative again. Politicalism led us by Grant Hague, whom Mrs Redmond blocked from standing, are just the rest of Tories whom we can like me about back to see in Parliament again. That they seem unentire that millions of their own loyal voters have expected from doesn't surprise me. When want on the list of applicants - Mark Racewell.

There long despoused at the short stories for six years voters. However, Grant has been a good man who is generational battle on her hands. To name of an old man, the major what has been seen did to our country, and how they effectively had done, and carpet on which to order in the

spitched and an unproven Labour Government.

It said to me to see what we've done, but as at least I can remember I agree! (Mrs)

Donald Machey Middlesex, Wiltshire

six - Daniel S. Mahan says that Dame Penny Merchant has no place in the Tory party, writing, "It is difficult to point to a single Conservative achievement in Dame Penny's time in office" (Commen, August 18).

In 2018, I was a member of a Service to charity co-annivers. We approached Dame Penny with a international development secretary, requesting a grant, at 16th given to a equity 10,000 vet's man who had results across India. I'd and now bring to that and I can name it a national committee. To our surprise, she, I'm interestedally against. This financial support has been transformative. From Norman Shuker, Stylendher

Playtime: Past outdoors in Spring Evening by the Viceroy's First the Nibolist Astrup

Skills acquired when playing outdoors

six - I played outside with my friends from the age of seven, and in the second half of the year I was in most of the day ("No has in the sun. Children play outdoors for 12 minutes a week", report, August 17).

Apart from the obvious benefit of social development, playing outdoors left me with an active sense of direction. Indeed, studies show that children who make their own way to school are more advanced in this regard than those who are

driven. I quickly became proficient in taking care of oneself and the way to make their own ways to Romney. March when I was 2, I didn't care for the most provided, so I went to a near by river, caught some fish and cooled them over a camp for a while.

The main risk nowadays is the heavy road traffic, requiring extreme vigilance.

A model for tackling antisocial behaviour

six - James Kirkley is right that behaviour once committed antisocial issues accepted. Commen, August 18. In the answer, the most important of the following: spitting, dressing grin, and other underpudder behaviour, the my main deers. There never seen anyone doing these things, nor because they did not have power to but because it is now understood that you just don't do their.

First has the power of always enforcement would re-educate the British public and restore some pride in our country.

Richard Ridd Rajeshon, Derbyshire

six - James Kirkley's article makes very good results, it is interesting that it was published in the same day that 10 Wednesday's discussion is presented here using their phones on handpack or in

its quite import, August 18.

In business, I was often told that we needed a policy for them in that. My business was not a good thing, but I did policies, but I decided that they will make any difference, what I prefer to for people to take personal responsibility for that action. Andrew W. T. Mahan

Milton Keynes, Buckinghamshire

six - Writing in the public is the patched firsthand countryside last week. I noticed the above in front: it flicking squarely ash out of the water. When I think that, he casually smarts the spring, and he does read

Whatever the merits of government alerts (Letters, August 18) it seems that there's no getting through to some people.

Drones for Ukraine

six - I disagree with Robert Taylor (Letters, August 18), who contains against Britain supplying Ukraine with a 1,000 million dollars, but Ukraine needs all of Europe's support in the forest and U-वेads couldn't with Russia. Britain should be brave, too, not a novel by the help Thaliana Putin. They are want peace, purpose for me. This is more relevant today than at any time in my life.

Jo Bidd

Algebra, Dover

six - Robert Taylor says that Britain's foreign policy should be to outfall the British. The British state is that taking the war into the heart of Russia is precisely the way to push Vladimir Putin towards the negotiating table. Destroying, all reference and the government of Russia is to be the Amacron, is affecting everyday life even for those Russians who have not lost their lives at the front. In Moscow, Putin's "special military operation" is now openly called war.

The text from the Russian embassy is similar to that the UK will pay for its help in Ukraine. In short, August 18 suggest just how effective our deans are being. A repeat like from well above: attempt to curtail internal opposition, but once the whole nation turns against him for will fall.

Francis Bown

London E1

six - Robert Taylor writes: "In a war between two and four powers, there may be no winner at all."

A Proviant, the reason of him how a American at the high table understand mutually unused doctor-医生 and reform from using their weapons.

Mr Taylor is right that "supplying weapons needs to attack targets in Russia inevitably increases the risk of emphatic against British interests. For it to clear that our lack of international forces in all those overseas states Britain seeks ways to

Trump on vaccines

six - Donald Trump has signed an order calling for fewer vaccinations report, August 12. He has also made unavoidable statements, meaning that some people will not know children in national against both sides.

A far more important world leader wants formal of vaccination. In 1851, Napoleon ordered the vaccination of bicyclist army, saving four numbers, from midfight. When Edward Seltzer, the English doctor who pioneered vaccination, appealed to the advice for the release of prisoners of war, the Emperor granted it, saying: "I cannot kill, we can refuse nothing to that man." Dr William Ward (Oxford, Eire)

Greeting lesson

six - Working on a multinational environment, I often had to help colleagues who were keen to improve their English.

In particular, they had to learn that when we eat, "Bible, how we read, and how, August 17, we do not actually want a health report, and that the correct response is, "I at the hands. I am sure that it is much good the interaction is complete.

Something's off when we applaud a pilot for landing

We've become ever more preoccupied with the self. How did we become so emotionally incontinent?

ANNSMEL DUNHAM

Landing is the car's work. I was unable to show the entire respect (sic, applause, so first I assumed it was from one pair, unusually, was female. But on the return journey passengers again slapped the nods as I thought I'd hit the human - and the time the captain was a man.

Why? "One was an imbricence of the family. I was a man and simply descended from 30,000ft and arrived at the airport ground on our tickets. Intrigued, I consulted two pilots. They felt me applause after landing in the Sandage common. Both flagged and futility off the picture: pilots at behind a holiday or closer wearing some cancelling headers and can't fear the illness. My left side applauding at the end of the boat, the other a pointless tribute to people who won't there.

We are unreasonably incapable of feeling anything without making a professional call. We give standing together to the co-operative and applaud delivery through speeches. Every child deserves captain, every pet

is a family member, every mother a human. Half of him have ways to be put in with, doing it to prevent of women under 22. We've become emotionally incontinent.

Previous generations were not unfeeling. Thomas Dixon, author of Wiggins, and others, eventually had supposedly still flipped first have a regular pattern. Modern of Christianity encouraged us to see the number of country calls of possibility colds and sympathies: weeping, thence We even were black for nearly four decades.

It isn't the opinion I saw it for the most of which has changed but the rules governing it. People tour without hesitation and level embank at a report. If you face only sympathies with a cause, do you really care? Compassion must be a good one. The most important is the orientation: nature evils being interperils in cold. In almost every one, the situation seems to be able in the making. Guns are torn at India '94 helped turn all schedules into a financial treasure. Reality TV has not meaningly taught us that emotion - rupture, desquamation, and the number on tap at all times. Meanwhile the confounded a world is everywhere, recounting addiction, adversity, and the cork man.

The situation British apotheosis was the death of Prime non-Dama. Strangers wept, clinging to one another in the streets. The Queen's embodiment of an older code - was face of a troll to the troll of manure. At the end of the philosophy's Anthony O'Hear dued to argue that the response to Diana

optimized a culture of no waste or pseudo-travel over mortality. Every one of the first things was to be defending the minority of the public's feelings for The People's Princess.

But the decision - in turn to sound the order. The issue were real. The more something I suppose was why a stranger's death was experienced as extremely personal, environment - and why the one should not participate - were treated as mentally deficient. Most public figures have taken a girl the message: emotions display is now insatiable or even for a particular. Those who can't all trust that it are soon.

Something else has been changing. What is a few things to do. In 2010, 72 per cent of people in England and Wales described themselves as 'Christian. 20 years ago, they are not to be a 'few shakes.' Just here from 10 to 37 per cent of things for a woman is a 'few shakes' and a 'few shakes' where fulfilment comes from what we love, how we look - and now we find.

Basically, we've become ever more preoccupied with it so well. We are talking about the world's current world's validate our feelings. "Me, me, me" has to come the child's cosponsor to "To see that" - that does exist - to "I manage every where, including those now in being a person."

Social media is the perfect amplifier. Changing the data? between finding something and broadcasting it. Once, I am article engaged you, you had to compare it to you. It's a thing good in landscape an editor published by anyone and nothunter. Now you can

denunce me as a fanatic or a wet liberal institution really, often before teaching paragraph from the same expression one outages instant judgment. What social media is like us what everybody else is looking. Offer a suspect's love, defend the favor, engage in or suggest that you can't be fash and be left behind are not - as I discovered recently when I questioned a man for calling for another. Mountbatten-Windsor's public operation was may be going too far.

It also was outrage as to personalise everything. Most marketing is the narcissistic appropriation of others' grief we cannot simply feel sorry for somebody else, we must make their tragedy our own. Politics follows the same pattern, with individualist applause. We are not at once the same laws with a cast consideration given to possibly adverse consequences.

Unless the one empowered against isn't making an happen. The GNS recently found 20 per cent of the 6-20-year-old reported free happiness compared with 4 per cent of over 70s. The 6-20-year-old is a public explanation. Seduction, doing apps, qualification housing, first a culture that endlessly instructs us to examine, display, and validate our reactions and what to be surprised when they comment.

Bond markets in fire's borrowing costs soar

Interest on government yields at pre-financial crisis levels amid concerns of 'unsustainable' debt

By Sam Ping Chan

BORROWING.com have surged to the levels even in the runcap to the financial crisis on loan that government are being content of debt.

An increasingly toxic cocktail of the firm conflict, the 34 industry's unprevented borrowing spree and inflation backward the profit as 30-year 375{busuries to a two-decade-high of 2.2(pc yesterday, Yields on benchmark 10-year US debt also rose as higher as 7(pc

In Britain, the Debt Management Office said government bonds carrying the highest interest rate since 2007. Some £4bn in gifts were issued with a yield of 2.0(pc, the highest rate since part before Northern Bank collapsed.

Bining debt costs pose a headache for John Healey, who is preparing to unroll his market budget on Oct 24.

The problem is not confined to Britain and the UK. Borrowing costs in Japan are at a 30-year high and France's 10-year bond yield far as highest level since 2009 yesterday.

Robin Brooks, of the Brookings International, said global bond markets were "on fire" as investors lose faith in the ability of governments to get debt down. "When you have a lot of debt and you usually keep budget deficits, you're extremely vulnerable to any old shock that comes along," he said. "It's not about the shock, but - instead - the news we are making of fiscal policy on a global scale.

The former IMF economist warned that countries with 'lots of debt and political dysfunction' like the UK, France and Japan were "losing hit harder than others".

By contrast, more prudent countries like Switzerland and Germany have been more insulated, though the borrowing costs of both increased yesterday. Britain's debt jails in already close to 10(pc of GDP, while France and Japan have even higher debt shares.

Mr Brooks said investors were demanding a higher premium for long-term borrowing amid growing uncertainty over the political and economic

outlook of debt-laden countries. 'Initial conditions turn out to be massively important,' he said. 'The benefits of responsible fiscal policy - have never been more apparent.

While investor demand for British debt remains robust, with more than three-bayers holding its overtrusted no offer, economists and rising borrowing costs served as a warning to study there. The Prime Minister and the Chancellor are working to borrow more by exploiting flexibility in the fiscal rates introduced by Rachel Reeves, the previous chancellor.

Mr Healey is exploring ways to boost investment at a time when rising prices and borrowing costs, driven by conflict in the Middle East, have already taken into half Mr Healey's £240m buffer to balance the bonds.

Exploiting flexibilities in the fiscal rates risks pushing up borrowing costs even further and adding not more pressures to the public finances.

Simon Francis, the chief UK economist at Fannune Liberum said: 'This is a warning to the Chancellor on the risks of using the flexibilities in the fiscal rates to increase borrowing. It can be done, but at a rate and quite a possibility, one for future purposes'.

Economists were that inflation could come close to 8(pc by the end of this year, from less than 8(pc) today. This will add to pressure on the public financial and push up the cost of swapping a home.

The Bank of England has signalled that interest rates will have to stay higher for longer periods to keep a 34 month(ton, prompting) market to push up the cost of mortgages.

Unwritings from have also climbed to their highest interest, more than a year, with home loans closely linked to long-term borrowing costs.

Economists are predicting that the 17.5 national debt could surpass 140(pc £150m) this week after a Supreme Court ruling on Donald Trump's sweeping tariffs blew a hole in his budget plans.

Official forecasts show that America's debt jails in on-course to $4.5(bitm) this week after a Supreme Court ruling on Donald Trump's sweeping tariffs blew a hole in his budget plans.

Dale Vince backs drilling... but Sturgeon isn't for turning

By Hans van Leeuwen

DALE VIOVE has urged Andy Burnham to allow more drilling for oil and gas in the North Sea.

The press energy entrepreneur said he told Mr Burnham that the controversy has been a good deal. He says he's already ahead for approved, but only if the oil and gas purchase were subject to price controls to make those changes than unprevented.

Speaking to BBC Knowledge the Labour force said: "We are using fossil fuels for the next couple of decades. That's a reality. If we approach things differently, we can actually make sense to change the North Sea.

"If we price-control it like we have our retail energy sector, we can actually save money for the future, would make more sense of facilities and floorbank"

90pc of boroughs behind on housing targets in Khan's London

By Pan-Guan Man

LONDON has fallen further behind on to house-building targets under far fading Khan, in a blow to Labour's national plans.

Almost nine acres of the capital's boroughs missed government targets for new home construction last year, according to newly published figures. Ten proportion of acres falling short one from 90pc in 2023.

The number of boroughs falling seriously behind the targets, which mean

are the number of homes built locally against forecasts for how many are needed, has also been.

As of 2020, nearly two-thirds of London councils now face losing many of their powers to the above projects. The proportion facing this most serious question has been dropped more than a third in 2023.

Lord Bailey, the housing spokesman for the City Hall's more others, blamed its fading for the poor performance, saying once on requirements for builders had made it far too hard to build in the

capital. He said: "For years, he is through the London Star, pushing for the high affordable housing requirements, or shifting councils, the Mayor has made it difficult to get housing built and then wonders why starts and completion have fallen off a 100"

The downturn threatens to make Labour's already stretching goal of building 1.5 million homes during this parliament all but impossible to reach.

Ministers intervened last year to try to reverse the decline in London construction. In March 2024, he had a van

Early indications show the new policies have not yet had an impact. Construction started on just 2,876 private,

new-build homes in London during the second quarter of this year.

For London to reach its target of deflecting 98,000 homes a year, it needs to start building 22,000 every three months.

Lord Bailey said the Government's intervention "should be a sobering enhancement"

Sir Isah has blamed high interest rates, rising material costs and the impact of Brexit and the pandemic for London's housebuilding slump.

However, industry has blamed the

Mayor's red tape, claiming that the high levels of affordable housing required make projects insufficient.

Take shorter showers, urges Thames Water

By Sir Nelson

THAMES WATER has told customers to take shorter showers after weaning that your war forces are lower than usual and the drought.

The utility company, which has 16 million customers, said in London rev revoits were 7(pc full at the end of last month, which was below average for the time of run.

Sir Fannum Burswood called millions was 93(pc full, though this too was below average and the company said it was not at all short in the thing.

Thames said it was important that customers continued to follow a boun-

pipe ban introduced on July 23 and urged people to cut water usage in other ways.

Mental Safety of Thames Water, said "With universal levels below where we would expect thereto for for this time of year, and demand remaining, high, we're asking customers to keep going and continue using only what they need. Smart changes, such as closing shorter showers, turning off tips and avoiding non-moralist water use can do so, all help reduce pressure on our network while our teams continue working around the clock so that an off-balance."

Wants without run have left 75.3(pc

of England in drought. Heatwaves have also led to increased demand for water. Thames Water said customers across London and the Thames Valley used around 100 million liters water to start than normal each day during July's hot weather.

Experts have warned that despite rain being forecast in the next few days, will take many workstations to unavoid levels return to normal.

Thames Water said rainfall has been around 40(pc of the long term average since March.

The exceptionally dry spring and summer have led to concerns that further restrictions may be needed.

THE US emergency stockpile of crude oil has destabilistic in lowest level since 1982, prompting those who are that oil prices could surge if the firm war drags up.

The Trump administration released another 5.5 million barrels in the past week as it was to prevent the conflict from driving up oil prices and hitting the US economy.

The Strategic Petroleum Reserve now shut at 2014 million barrels, a brief not everyone should litigate to report the White House.

But the crisis supplies from the US

government's storage caverns in Texas and Louisiana are doing little to be up of prices in check.

The price of Brexit crude jumped to 30p a barrel yesterday, the highest that month, as comments from Donald Trump, happened beyond a reporting of the Strat of Bremen.

Mr Trump told journalists on Monday that the "whole country" to one the conflict that has blocked up to one-fifth of global oil supplies, as a 10-ohy coauthor required without a deal to set up a "real" oil supply.

Traders for the "purchaged" house of Bremen will eat into global oil stockpiles, avoiding prices sharply higher

possibly even above the conflict-faciled high of almost 1000 in 1982.

The International Energy Agency UK's分析 of how we did the global oil supplies, a 10-ohy global interest, may in July, is still on million barrels less than a year ago.

Demand has also dropped, but only to an estimated 4.6 million barrels is the increasing. The UK's new worldwide oil investment should be another 10 million barrels in July. Global stockpiles have dropped by 1.6% million barrels since the 7.4 and have since had 10p on 1.6% of the total oil supply, some of the Strat of Bremen, which normally can be a fifth of all oil and gas supplies.

Ditching net zero 'would save families £540 a year

Britain should build a new generation of gas-fired power stations instead, claims Kemi Badenoch

by Jonathan Leslie

DITCHING Labour's net zero targets could save the typical British household £540 a year, Kemi Badenoch has claimed.

A study today endorsed by the Conservative leader said scrapping construction of Scottish wind farms and connected transmission systems would save £520bn between 2030 and 2050 - with the financial benefits flowing back to families.

Instead, Britain should build a new generation of gas-fired and nuclear power stations across England where demand is greatest, and the report, published by think tank's board.

Ed Midland, Labour's former energy secretary, made wind power a key plant of his drive for a 90pc decarbonised power system from 2030.

But Mr Badenoch said "Britain needs a serious plan to deal with climate change. Set business means looking at results, not simply setting targets and congratulating ourselves afterwards.

"Current net zero targets have driven up energy costs, weakened our industrial base and made science dependent on energy imports.

"Our plan means using our own oil and gas in the North Sea, removing unnecessary costs from energy bills, and backing nuclear and renewables that can provide cheap, clean, abundant energy for homes and businesses."

Her comments prompted a bio Math from Martin Fahnbollah, the new Energy Secretary.

Mr Fahnbollah said Mr Badenoch's plan would "be Britain to the fossil fuel roller coaster and hoop bills higher for families."

Onward, a Westminster-based centre-right think tank, commissioned the study from industry consultancy Truman Energy. Its analysis compared Mr Midland's net zero plans with an alternative pathway focused on low cost, with a lower 90pc decarbonisation rate.

Ed Hecht, who wrote the report, said such a change would mean cutting wind farm expansion, and instead boosting the UK's fleet of 50 gas-fired power stations with new ones built mainly in southern Britain.

The UK currently has about 35 gigawatts (GW) of gas-fired generating capacity, which demand says should be increased to 400W.

More than half of the UK's 55 gas plants are at least 20 years old, as such a programme would mean rebuilding or replacing them as well as constructing new ones. The suggestion is controversial and would likely provide a bio Math from the Government and from the

£520bn

How much money would be saved between 2030 and 2050/0 net zero plans were scrapped, according to study

many green groups campaigning against fossil fuels. Onward argues that it would overcome the greatest cost of decarbonisation, which is the massive expansion of the transmission grid needed to connect wind farms planned as the far north with England's power-hungry cities - estimated to cost £125bn.

Claire Coutinho, the Tory shadow energy secretary, said: "This is the most detailed costing of our electricity system that's ever been done.

"It finishes the work I started in Government that Ed Midland can called - a true costing of renewables which shows they are not cheaper when you take into account their full system cost."

However, other policy groups said wind power was still the cheapest way to resist low cost energy.

Adam Berman, a policy director at Energy UK, said expanding gas was a poor choice: "The energy sector - our members - agree that renewables, nuclear and storage are the best bid to a low cost energy system."

Ann Mount, a policy director at Home with UK, said the UK would lose 150W of generating capacity from its ageing nuclear and gas fleets by 2030."

PM's bus plan saddles West Midlands with £30m bill

by Christopher Jasper

ANDS BUSINESS plans to bring local buses under public control has left the West Midlands with a £30m bill after the private sector operator decided to pull out of the region.

The Prime Minister hailed a move yesterday to transfer ownership of hundreds of bus routes, 1,600 buses and a fleet of depots from current owner National Express to West Midlands Combined Authority (WMCA), which is led by Richard Parker, the Labour nurse.

The move is part of a new "buschise" bus model that Mr Burnham is championing across the country to give local officials more control over bus networks. However, the WMC's has ended up paying £24m and a further £5.5m over the next three years to National Express to take control of the infrastructure and planning the network.

National Express is cutting ties with the West Midlands, where it has run buses for 40 years, after haulking at operating under Mr Burnham's new franchise model.

The authority, comprising seven

consciously facing Birmingham, which declared itself bankrupt in 2021, will also take over £79m to pension liabilities from National Express.

Mr Burnham hailed the deal as a "milestone" in regionalising public services and evidence of the role that 9x30 North could play in supporting local leaders.

Speaking at Wolverhampton bus station, he said: "The bus service here was close to collapse. We needed to stop in to secure services in the short term.

"But longer term, we are now building to a model under full public control so that people have not got the benefits of that. When I said we would put power back into the hands of local communities, this is exactly what I was talking about.

A statement from No10 did not mention the cost of the transaction or the transfer of pension liabilities.

The Prime Minister has been a vocal champion of the "buschise" system, which was introduced in 2017 and involves some advertising code (handicaps to the private sector.

When he was mayor of Manchester, Mr Burnham led the drive to bus franchising beyond London with the creation of the free Network.

Dire jobs numbers that should worry Burnham

After riding a wave of optimism, the latest unemployment figures could be ruinous for the PM, says Emma Taggart

With the office for National Business (ONS) published the latest data on the jobs market. For McFadden's latest 7 continued fall in 1fled unemployment rate.

Unfortunately for the Work and Business Secretary, that's not what most economists aren't.

The increase of 1.9p figures pointed out that rather than dropping to 4.9p, in the three months to date at had been expected, the unemployment rate remained stable until a week at 4.9pc.

McFadden was comparing the unemployment rate in the first quarter of the year to the second, over which period it edged down from 3pc to 4.9pc. Most economists were looking at the rolling three month average, as is standard.

The Work and Business Secretary was doing his best to guide a positive picture of jobs data that follow through an economic follow at the Institute of Economic Affairs, called "due".

While the rolling three month average was flat, the monthly figures still additional story. They show unemployment rose sharply from 4.0pc to 3.8pc to 5.4pc in 2nd.

That was the largest monthly jump in 3.7 years and took the rate to its highest level since October 2020, when Britain was in the midst of the pandemic.

James Smith, an economist at DGs said: "Consumer facing industries—hospitality and retail—have been consistently shedding jobs and if anything, the pace of decline is getting worse."

The sharp increase in monthly unemployment comes as rising costs triggered by the bias was energy prices shock prompt more leases to 3d staff in.

The nation's construction sector has also been reducing staffing numbers on business report falling actively and a decline in demand for new work.

Business activity in Britain's building industry has been in decline since January 2020, according to the 2nd quarter of the year, with a grilling of 1m3 in 1m3.

The ONS figures show the private sector has weakened significantly since the start of the year, with an increase in the number of public sector workers smoking the problem.

Overall growth of employment declines over 2.0mnd, 2.0dly, but this monthly figure made broader shifts.

Weymouth, the private sector has recorded a $30,000 fine due to the number of post-dire workpersons under the start of the year, or a 5.0pc decline.

Joblessness has climbed under Labour

Public sector pay outgrowing private sector pay

img-84.jpeg

Consumer-facing industries have been consistently shedding jobs and the decline is worsening.

By contrast, the public sector has expanded by 42,000 workers over the same period, or 0.4pc since January. Martin Beck, the chief economist at WPSI, reply, said: "Ternodis the headline figures, the divide between the public and private sectors remained stark, with the public sector continuing to provide much of the support to employment and pay growth."

Unlike many private businesses, Britain's civil servants have struggled with low productivity since the pandemic.

Despite this, pay packets for civil servants have surpassed the private sector. The most recent figures show that while private sector wage growth

slowed to 2.8pc in the three months to June, public sector workers recorded a 5.1pc increase.

This is had been the productivity, a number of economists had been at that the nation was sick at a low productivity period this year after almost two decades of sluggish growth. Yet hopes of this are likely to be dashed if the facilitator public sector overwhelms the private sector.

A continued fall in via stories suggesting that a will get worse before the year has been. Job spending fell to 707,000 in the three months to July, down 6,000 from the previous quarter to the lowest level in five years.

Lin McKeown, the director of economic statistics at the ONS, said the

latest drop was driven by smaller businesses cutting hiring as their operating costs out.

Computers, particularly those in the hospitality and retail sector, have repeatedly warned that they have been left with no choice but to choose recruitment or make a education in a response to an increase and encounter inflation-biasing increases to the minimum wage.

Nancy Thurs, the economist director of the Institute of Chartered Accountants in England and Wales, said the decline is "we can see was a 'red flag' for the jobs market."

He added: "Labour demand is shrinking amid wearing employment and energy costs, while greater

Ternodis the headline figures, the divide between the public and private sectors is stark"

automation is also squeezing some entry level roles.

Businesses are now bearing for fresh rises in energy bills and a potential new round of top increases in the upcoming Budget. As a result, many may continue to hold off on hiring or opt for job cuts if supposed.

All of this is had news for Andy Burnham, who came to office on a wave of optimism.

As well as enjoying a "Burnham house" in the opinion polls, some economists also expected to see a similar uptick in the economy.

McFadden assumed these were "signs of progress in the latest figures". In fact, things may be going in the wrong direction.

Disney sues Trump administration over 'assault' on free speech

By James Warrington

DDNetV has sued the Trump administration on an escalating row between the White House and the media over the 1st quarter.

The media giant and its ABC division have filed a lawsuit accusing Donald Trump's media regulator of waging a "excitatory campaign" against the United States' tobacco Congress with its output.

The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) ordered Disney to be glad to begin the renewal process for its television broadcast between ahead of schedule. The watchdog has also opened an investigation into The First an ABC talk show, while officials have

been carrying out a long-running review of diversity, equity and inclusivity in the United States.

In the lawsuit, Disney urged a judge to block the early license renewal, which is described as an attack on the freedom of the press.

Lawyers for the company accused the FCC of attempting to retaliate against a network that "refrains to host to the administration's demands."

Disney separately filed for a temporary restraining order and preliminary injunction, accusing the FCC of an "extraordinary assault on free speech".

In its lawsuit, Disney alleged the Trump administration was trying to intimidate the rest of 70 media industry. "ABC is the visible target and suffers

the most immediate harm, but the message is addressed to every broadcaster in the country, and the ultimate cost is borne by the press as a whole," according to the lawsuit.

It marks the latest escalation in a long-running clash between media groups and the Trump administration over the White House's attempts to raise the press.

Mr Trump has previously sent many US broadcasts, including ABC for delimination, securing millions of dollars in settlements.

However, news groups have increasingly fought back. Last year, 30% sent the US government arguing its funding cuts had hit in front Amendment rights. The BBC has also chosen to fight a

delimation lawsuit brought by the Mr Trump over an episode of Fanswona demanding personal documents and financial records from the US president. The row with Disney comes as Mr

'The message is addressed to every broadcaster, and the ultimate cost is borne by the press as a whole'

Things people with falling off-stated ahead of November's midterm elections. The US president has repeatedly criticized Disney's ABC network, accusing of the professor of the University. The FCC, which is led by Trump ally

Brendan Carr, has in turn stingled up pressure on the company, suggesting it could be engaged on "dlegal 1983 discontinuities."

The row came to school last year after late-night talk show host Jimmy Kimmel accused Mr Trump and his supporters of trying to capitalize on the killing of Charlie Kirk, a flight-wing influencer.

Mr Kimmel was briefly pulled from the air, amid a backlash from Republican, but was emaciated a few days later.

The past clash of again in April this year after Mr Kimmel joined that Melanie Trump, the first lady, had a "give the out expected value."

The comments came days before the White House Correspondents' Association dinner was abandoned after a gun-

man attempted to storm the room. Mr Trump claimed that Mr Kimmel's comments were: "A separate call to violence."

Mr Kimmel said it was a "very light" joke about the age difference between the president and his wife.

Broadcast licences are usually renewed every eight years and Disney's were reportedly not up for renewal until 2020.

An FCC spokesman said: "All broadcasters have a legal obligation to operate in the public interest—even Disney. It is obviously very concerned about the FCC's proceeding, as evidenced by their ongoing campaign of disinformation as well as their decisions to ask a court to stop the FCC further pursuing matters."

M&S fastest-growing grocer as sales surge

MARR & SPENCER has been named Britain's fastest-growing grocer after sales surged during the summer business.

The trade is at M&S jumped 10.9pc in the 12 weeks to Aug 10 compared with the previous year, comfortably ahead of its rivals, according to retail analysts. Working on the 'hum出来.'

M&S growth is estimated as the last wave took hold. Grocery spending rose

11.9pc in the 12 weeks to June, before moving the rise in the following 12 weeks: • In fastest growth rate since May 2023.

M&S has spent 2.0mn cutting prices on more than 65 everyday products this year, as it rises to make its level built into companies.

It has dropped the price of fresh sailing in M&S, with the Cuisabacara Gold filters falling from £1.50 to £4.50, and made further cuts to employees at its own level. The first major cigar and tomato has long.

British supermarkets were also boosted by booming sales of chilled the pot foods, as shoppers looked to the food making industry.

Sales of cold-gas climbed 2.0pc while finger foods climbed 15.2pc, up to be

sales were up 16.8pc and also sales rose to 15.5pc.

M&S has billed itself as the "unobtrated home of picky fish."

M&S's summer growth rate was well ahead of retail supermarkets and grocers. Working on fresh, tidy foods, the milder grocery business, came close with sales increasing by 10.1pc.

Trocera sales rose 1.8pc, while Sumacra's grew 5.3pc and Maristone rose up 1.8pc. M&S increased sales by 1.3pc and full surged 8.1pc.

Mike Ashley tightens his grip on Hugo Boss

By Tom Haynes

MIKE ASHLEY'S Finance Group has built an almost 50pc stake in Hugo Boss after failing to take control of the Germany fashion brand.

The retailer has done part of Hugo Boss after shareholders agreed to sell a further 17.6pc of the company to Mr Ashley's retail empire.

It comes after Finance made an offer in June for the remaining shares in the German brand that it did not already own. The bid of 454.1.2.2.1 per share valued the business at 2.0mn.

The approach was rejected by Hugo Boss's board, who said the offer materialized the business and its prospects, but Finance said on Tuesday it had been accepted by a minority of shareholders.

The retail leases Mr Ashley's retail business just about of outright control, but with a major influence over the future of one of Europe's best known fashion groups.

Finance began building its stake in Hugo Boss in 2020 and crossed the 30pc threshold earlier this year, triggering a mandatory offer for the remaining business under German law. Michael Murray, Finance chief executive said Mr Ashley's own as law, is also

'Drastic Dave' cuts 2k jobs at Guinness

By Tom Haynes

THE owner of Guinness cut nearly 2,000 jobs last year as Sir Dave Lewis, de-ave chief executive, took an axe to spending.

Dinges, which also makes 4dmn in Walker whisky, saw staff numbers fall by 4pc for the year ending June as Sir Dave launched a turnaround drive to revive the company's fortunes.

Figures published in Dinges's annual report yesterday showed it had 27,800 full-time employees in June - 1,922, and less than the 28,000 it boasted a year earlier.

Dinges did not say how many of the jobs last were redundant on board spent 5.0mn on production's payments during the year, up from 8.0m last year.

At Dave, known in business circles as 'drastic Dave' for his cost cutting approach, has embarked on a significant overhaul of Dinges since taking things in January.

This has included plans to find 10m of annual average through initiatives such as trimming, digital air head office (also across in global) regional and local teams.

The scale of the task is stark. Dinges's revenue fell 3pc to 320.0bn last year,

while operating profit plunged 27pc to 45.2bn.

The 65-year old earned the "drastic Dave" member for his cost cutting drive at Tracy, which he had between 2014 to 2020.

During his time there he closed doors and cut the number of jobs as he sought to revive its fortunes.

At Dinges, he has not put a number on the jobs that will be lost in his latest overhaul.

Next year Sir Dave stands to revive £4.2bn in annual pay of he succeeds in the first year. He has been a good deal for the annual report. His salary is £1.5m, while he can earn a bonus worth up to £2m and long-term incentive shares worth up to £6.7bn under Dinges's proposed new pay policy. He received £3.4bn for the six months he spent as chief executive during the last financial year, including a £7,000,000 bonus. One-third of that bonus will be deferred into almost six times years.

Sir Dave says cutting spending will allow Dinges to invest in brands with greater potential for growth rather than simply investing profits through cuts.

Every group is double the capacity of Guinness during the course of this plan," he said earlier this month.

Labour must pass two big tests on the economy

img-89.jpeg

The Government's public sector largesse must be coded - so all eyes on North Sea oil and the City

ANSP BENSHAM 5 claim to being a broadly pre - business Prime Minister faces no-important tests over the coming months.

One of the decisions whether to give the Rosebank and his three North Sea oil and gas fields the go ahead.

Firstly, it concerns pre on more than six to a few times. If economic growth were the priority, Bensham would indeed go further and like Norway start out on all that's left beneath its frailty's no-strongest views. That won't happen, so we must settle for Rosebank and his three.

By giving the North Sea a longer shelf-life than it otherwise would have, Bensham not only outspoken plea and tax revenues, but - contrary to what environmentalist Minister claim - helps release a more safe and less disruptive programme to the prescribed goal of an all-doctoral economy.

In a recent article, Lord Howell, a former UK energy secretary, pointed

out that with 11 new nhà centres and/or construction, and up to 71 more working in the sports - all of them requiring immense amounts of power - just keeping up with new sources of demand for electricity - will be challenging enough. Consisting of the great humeral and of existing energy consumption to elect to increase so long.

There are limitless what wind and sun can provide, so the power must inevitably come from a combination of new build and new and gas-fired generating plants. "We shall need every theme of gas we can release from the North Sea - and oil too, imported and food - to fill demand," says Lord Howell.

So which is it to be? The rigidity imposed and soups made off, costly requirements of climate change mitigation, or a prognostically driven, common sense approach that revenues a few disruptive transition to a present future.

The other test is whether to face down a risk for higher taxes on banks to fund the Government's various spending priorities, or to give us to the open calls of those who are the City as just a rich source of taxation there for the free city.

Here's lobbying from the City has thus far soon off the threat, but with a new Prime Minister comes a renewed assault. The banks are making substantial profits, in part at the

expense of the taxpayer via the interest they receive on their liabilities of central banks receives, as why not close some back?

Here's why. It's called halting the gross that laid the golden rug, and though not in itself a criminal blow, it would further add to the steadily accumulating list of reasons for international capital and to choose London as its home.

One of the continuing features of the City that has London Brown parked of government is that they did at least going here important the City wants the economy and to tax revenues, and loosened the banks accordingly.

Tipping points are always hard to identify until it's too late, but my sense is that we are close to one

It was a kind of Farnham pact: the City would pay for Labour's social objectives, and in return, the City would be given free rein to do largely what it liked.

By then, the great mates for testing dynamo on which the British Empire had been built had long since - blamed. In its place winged finance as Britain's pre-eminent economic force, turbot cheaped by the Big Bang capital markets reforms of the Thun free years and a fair globalising international

economy whose needs the City came to serve.

In same the American, and in too - came the European banks, most of the latter choosing to consolidate their capital markets activity in London away from the dead hand of home nation governments.

As an industrial strategy it certainly had to do on coming as well as its casualties, but it sort of worked. Until that is, it didn't. In 2004 the whole edible चाहते and, and the

Government's cash grown disoblig. The City eventually closed its way back from the catastrophe of the global financial crisis, but it never truly recovered the question of in-glory years.

Tipping points are always hard to identify until it's too late, but my sense is that we are quite close to one as things stand. Admittedly, this has been said many times before of the City, particularly second the time of the referendum on leaving the EU, but thus far it has closed predictions of post-Broad decline.

The number of jobs and an industrial European centres since Event is so small that nobody any longer believe to track them, and - consistently, to certainly nowhere even what was widely how art at the time.

The European Commission has meanwhile pretty much given up on its determination to bring clearing of Euro-determination interest rate

determines back to Paris and Frankfurt. If London were banned, European banks wanted, they'd take the business not to steal European financial centres but to New York, which, unlike the City, has designated "repatriation" for regulatory purposes. City has been already neglected during Brexit negotiations with the EU, and it is the unpatented of European negotiations who couldn't understand how their British counterparts could lead such a run on its industry as causally.

The business "live in Johnson reportedly said its response to a growing chorus of complaint, but his

There is only so far you can reach things, and the banking surcharge may be the final straw

impression that the City could take care of itself proved reasonably well founded.

Unfortunately there is also only so far you can push things before the wheels and things off, and the banking surcharge - though not a particularly big deal in the scale of things - may be the final straw.

This was not from 6pc to 3pc by the late Tory government in an effort to restore lost tax competitiveness, but it still leaves the overall rate on banking

profiles will allow the European average. It is true that banks have signally only - central bank lending to small and medium-sized enterprises in recent years, and the problem is so much lack of demand as supply. Sister experience has taught TMB2 on to put themselves in touch to the lost money of the City.

Banks could theoretically correct this situation by force feeding the market with credit, but post 2004, there are major regulatory constraints on this kind of "going for growth" balance sheet on question. Almost invariably it really badly.

In any case, if credit expansion is the Government's aim, it is scarcely helped by taking the pivalves more: at a time when London's stock market almost no need to be marketed terminal for line, this further act of economic shortage at the heart of the City could be the final start. A only for its signalling of a country that is running its back to its head, the capital debated.

Now 1993 figures this week showed that in the three months to the end of June, private sector wage growth slowed to a level that barely kept pace with the rate of inflation in India - so far wage growth on the other hand was still losing area of it.

For how much longer can the Government keep flagging the City's workforce to pay for its public sector largesse? For finance, there are greener partners elsewhere to grass on.

China is aiming for global dominance - and complete autonomy - of mass food production

Beijing's 15th five-year plan will marshal all state power towards placing protein on a par with defence

CHINA is about to do to the global supply chains for grains. It emits hard food products what it has already done to the world's energy and transport systems.

The country is operating what amounts to world dominance in the mass manufacture of protein, launching a broadcast plan to end the world's 15th five-year plan, and imports and insure its people against the long world's main risks of climate change.

The 15 billion to 15th five-year plan is marshalling all forces of finance and state power to overcome land and water limits, placing food security on a par with defence as an existential imperative for national survival.

And now at its coming age the Communist Party is activating the same plan book already used for state power, which is with the and batteries to reach 5.7pc or more of the world's market from a standing start to lower than 15 years - a pattern also visible in its push for water reduction, nuclear

fusion, quantum computing and planting.

It is developing genetically modified foods and crops, but it is also targeting the fast-growing industries of cellular agriculture, like grazing proteins and food from previous fermentation. Hundreds of its own, the savings of maturity to others.

In making the new, a protein revolution picking up spoonful through the 2020s and 2040s that will unholly change what the Chinese people eat, with uplivers off to access ease and the world.

It estimates that half of China's fish itself isn't consumption, and 40% of its dairy products, will come from 100 percent' seasonality like milk industry.

The country's leaders have forged and tried food with volatility for a large number.

China has 10pc of the world's population, 3pc of the arable land, and 4pc of mobile food owner - and some of that is finally polluted with nitrogen.

The 10pc - market sector tigger for global hegemony and the risk of a future 15 countries this book has brought matters to a head, to has the frightening pace of climate change in Chinese agriculture.

The country is now seizing fast to future-proof food for a 20s disease - three-digger - world.

A life-slitting flow of "the total farmer" and technology, the rise of the spring to life in the Pungent valley north-east of Beijing, best known for its liabilities of

pink peach blossom in late spring. It is billed as China's second life on Valley, an agricultural tech, up to its twin to the digital tech hub of Burian on the other side of the city.

Other soups and amino acid hubs with different niches are being developed in the Yangtze River Delta and Guangdong.

It suggests a shift from natural plants toward a coordinated industrial ecosystem. This geographic clustering mirrors patterns observed in solar manufacturing and EV production during their pre-scale phases," said Systering.

The Pungent serve centre has begun making proteins for commercial use from micro-alges, as well as EPA bid, oil and paraoxime used in protein bars and cereals.

The question of how seven climate change will erode global food output is a continued debate. The 'CO2

fertilization effect' of higher carbon levels has until now been a net plus far crop yields owing to much faster photorefaction and reduced water loss via demand conduction.

A broad twenty-death last year concluded that we have passed the tipping point where filtered turns to be. The CO2 benefits flatties out while the energy from heat-liters and

degradation of nutrient-liters harder. Scientists from the US, Europe and China concluded in a minimal flatter paper that global crop yields are likely to be 1pc lower by 2050 than they would otherwise have been, even after adjusting for plausible ways of adapting. But we don't know for sure and the pressure will not be linear.

China's Pungent lab has a long way to go to cat-fog with Wageningen's "Food Valley" in the Netherlands, the world's leading ag tech hub, but the Dutch have recently been fulfilled by

all of our innovation EU countries that are driving some of Europe's food technology entry-up into exile. Several are majorizing to the pre-actance harvest of Breast Beans.

What the Chinese lack in frontier biosciences - for now - they can more than compensate with vast industrial scale and state-directed credit. Systering thinks this could shuts the cost of resources and international systems, achieving "price parity" with traditional food for sooner than widely supposed.

One of a poorest is cheaper, market for food and its value is almost unstoppable in much the same way that 50pc of net electricity added across the world last year - a 2020s solar and EVs.

Food is not a more commodity of course. It goes to the heart of cultural identity and cuisine. It has a primal hold on our brain circuitry. So let me try to equip an eye analysis all new from my personal tastes.

On my farm we make them, both and when from a herd of grain that means it will over landless has been free of chemical pollutants for every long time, eating whatever they want, much like those will have been in the Japanese company of Iran.

We never touch the perceived foods that line the niches of modern supermarkets. But large numbers of people do consume such products as a way of life and I doubt they would even notice whether life-growth protein or milk made by a natural fermentation or put into the ingredients.

How many would rebuild "less chemical" carbon or protein and lipids started to make up 10pc and then 20pc of a natural food party, a that has stugget or a fish cake?

As a rule of thumb, it takes around 10pc food energy. 10pc free water and 10pc less lunatic make milk, from the prior to 10pc it gives, in a 2000s sector

level. It is not what I would drink by preference.

But I could hardly be worse than the milk made from grain feed cows experienced. 2020 for at 2020 for at a time from birth to death, in space upon industrial barns in China or the US, with little or no grazing in their miserable lives.

China was a net exporter of crops and livestock as secondly as 2016, before the shift to single protein diet both covering infants on imported grains for animal feed.

Today, Chinese demand sustains the grain's good business of the Western Hemisphere, absorbing 80pc of Argentinian soybean reports. 7pc of 2020 for at 2020, China's 2020s America, 10 hours most of Latin America is food imports. China's food deficit has reached 8000ha (2200m)

These figures are going to plummet. The country is working on every front towards food self-sufficiency, pushing the growing frontier 120 miles north and deep into the Beijing desert with modified crops.

It is so learning: If million hectares of native shall land for teaching out the salt. It has recently been the "local rehabilitation strategy" after decades of neglect, finally causing farmers to be precious resource rather than cheap original labour for the cities.

But the ag tech effort at things is the real wild card, with the potential to flood the revoking churn of the Global South - and not just the South - with cut price: protein and profoundly after the common of world food trade.

We Tzlogged readers may prefer to stick to our organic devices, grow fed Angus and store baked bread made from Cured Allotrope flour - and nobody will stop us, thank humans. Much of humanity wants cheaper food.

'I turned down a place at university to be a farrier for the Household Cavalry'

As Labour pushes military sign-ups, Euan Smith says he prefers work to student life, writes Noah Eastwood

HUSH SMITH always knew he would one day join the Army. As with many soldiers, he gives up in a military family and left school to serve aged 16. A decade later, he has no reason to regret the decision.

Smith has gone on to earn qualifications equivalent to those of many of his schoolmates, now lives rent-free in central London, and has the option to study for a university degree without incurring significant debt. For the apprentice factory - who is on a three year course in learn how to take care of the Household Cavalry's heroes - life in the Armed Forces has clear advantages compared with university.

'There's no funding I need to pay; it's all covered,' he said. 'It's more comfortable and sustainable for myself.'

Army apprenticeships offer starting salaries of £25,000 per year and can open the door to higher paid roles. For example, an Army corporal could expect to earn around £40,000 within five years after completing their training.

The Ministry of Defence is the largest employer of apprentices nationally. As of March 2026, there were 20,800 apprenticeships across the Armed Forces, with more than 70p+ aged 8-21, according to official figures. Of these, just under 11,000 apprentices were based in key sectors across science, technology, engineering and mathematics.

Labour plans to alleviate Britain's youth unemployment crisis by bringing more 9 to 2.8 years' olds such as four times the military.

The benefits of a life in the Army were relatively easy for Smith to discover, as his father Thomas Smith enjoyed a 24-year career in the Royal Electrical and Mechanical Engineers.

But for the Government to achieve its goal, thousands of people with no prior connection to the Armed Forces must be persuaded to join up. There are more than one million people in this age bracket who are not in employment or education, the highest level in more than 12 years. Andy Purnham said building the most would be among his top priorities as Prime Minister. But it remains to be seen whether more young people can be persuaded to consider alternatives to a conventional university education, or whether a demanding schedule

such as Smith's could ever be more appealing than student life.

Over the rear of a furnace and clatter of horse horses, Smith explains that his typical day begins at 7am when he leaves his flat in a tower block overlooking Hyde Park and enters the factory's workshop.

There he is expected to show two horses before eating breakfast. In a day, Smith and his colleagues will get through 12 horses, whose shoes must be constantly stripped, cleaned and replaced because of their top cross training. Thanks to the state opening of Parliament and the Kings Northday, his workload at Hyde Park Jarrusko is looser than usual, with a total of 256 horses to take care of.

'Working with his hands also comes with greater job satisfaction, he says: 'When you see a horse that is

struggling and then about 10 minutes after you've worked on it, to see it, walk out of the win super rewarding.'

Smith, must sit onams and practical assessments every six months as part of his apprenticeship. He is expected to master everything from picking the

'There's no funding I need to pay; it's all covered. It's more comfortable and sustainable for myself'

right shoe for each horse to a detailed understanding of the animal's anatomy.

'Because it's such an artisan trade, you can make it all on at once; it is a three-and-a-half year process,' he says. Before beginning his apprenticeship,

Smith completed 'structured service' with the Household Cavalry, which has a dual role: providing mounted guards for ceremonial occasions and being ready to deploy on the battlefield in raids. It allowed him to travel widely, visiting almost a dozen countries, including the UK, Cyprus, Belize, Germany, Morocco and Poland.

Many of his classmates went on to higher education. But having built a career by his mid-20s, Smith feels that joining up so young was the right decision. 'I don't have any regrets about not doing it the civilian way.'

Turning a degree is an option that remains on the table, too. The Army operates a programme that offers no scientific chance to control in a degree at no cost. There is also a separate system of learning credits accumulated over years of service, which can be put

towards qualifications. It means soldiers often receive degrees while being paid, at no cost. That compares to an average student debt on graduation of above £55,000 in England.

Above all, Smith says the main benefit of his job is the pride it gives him. 'As well as doing any apprenticeship, it has ceremonial regiment. I get the benefits of wearing the uniform, helmet and phone. I have a sense of belonging and a sense of pride.'

He wants to spend his life in the Army and eventually earn a degree related to animal sciences. 'The great thing about the Army is that once I've completed my apprenticeship, I can seek higher education. It doesn't need to be in factoring; it can be related to other things.'

EDDIE RICHARDSON, who has died aged 65, was a notorious London gangster who imprinted his capriola underworld in the 1940s with his older brother Charlie, while serving too longly, all actresses as a Conquity's bystander, he learnt to paint, and emerged from prison a gifted artist.

Although he was re-evalued not in the public perceptions that before the new brother, from whom he was last in the estranged, Eddie Richardson was the more vicious of the two, having a selfish, struck that broad expression in his doggy with rivals, between them. He Richardson brought a breakdown in south of the same income as that of the Roxy treston in the East End.

The Richardson party was underworld, where there comes farest in protection and returning to the first. These who crossed them were found to the basement of the brother's night club, who had been hired out as a member of the bar. For combat punishment, tooth were pulled out with pliers, less amputated with hole-stones and genitals wimples a black box with a handle which, whose capital, delivered an ihrchy shock, killed a robber, but was employed to patch up the victims.

In the hardest-usage of terror ended in July 1963 when one James Taggart appeared in his body after a serious falling career of a fighting procrast, "a whatch he had never tortured and forced to wipe up his own blood from the floor.

"I was never criminal in the 1960s but in 1967, Eddie Richardson was party prof as the soldier saw it judge providing a several such torture sessions, claim and unipatched crime, while his brother was out in prosecutor Eddie, already serving five years for office, was a pilot for a brother 10, having vitterworth dressed all the charges against him, the hero than in 1957 he started a successful coup metal business in south London.

Eddie went into the front-matless business with 'Mad' Charlie Power, then her prison graphic magazines, prep shows, films and protection carters.

The Richardson's fight time of work eventually proved to be his unlucky, it was while he was beginning to take over. The first time in the 1960s, the first half of south-east London, in March 1964, that an armed battle stopped with the incandescent One of the harbour's antagonists was shot dead in the short outside, and Richardson's himself was treated for design in which he hospital before being arrested.

When their mother discovered that one of her food parcels had arrived, she immediately took young Eddie back to London, leaving Charlie to the local hospital recovering from a crime.

Under Charlie's haddock/balloon, Eddie was constantly in trouble with the police, and at Avenue for undery life since Edwin in underworld it was perhaps unsurprising that his jingauzily windows the academic abilities, it was there that his lifelong passion for boxing was kindled.

Namedly strong, he desired us the status of fighting as the school's unaffected spirit, waning brother and, it seemed, unassailable. Nevertheless, Eddie spoke up with a more placid temperament than Charlie and although often led by his older brother, managed to keep out of more trouble than his aggressive sibling.

At 11 to 16 h, he is and began a college school in prison. He is unimpeachable, but was expelled for being a disruptive influence and to all a job with the London front.

He said that during the visit of George W Bush to Zambia in 1952, the former America president had "a chance they were kidding" when Scott was introduced as the vice-president.

A personable mother had with his an experience. Scott was well qualified to play a leading role in a country of what he had

pleases to become a citizen on its independence from Britain in 1954. Guy Langer Scott was born on June 1 1944 in Limbagoum, previously capital of what was then Northern Africa. His father, Alex, was a doctor who had emigrated from Glasgow to work on the railways and later became a MP. His mother, Steve, had emigrated from England.

They were educated at Sprague, the South and Peterbees River School, both in what was then Southern Rhodesia and its noble Zimbabwe. He studied economics at Trinity Hall, Cambridge, before returning to the University of New South Wales, and was a doctor at the University and became deputy editor of The Business and Economy of East and Central Africa.

In 1975, with Michael Christie, he set up an agronomic editor of the New Zealand, with a number of young bookstruits and products he sat to Europe. (as failing an Israeli society of election and electoral elections, he was in charge of the technological role of the woman. Later he became project manager of the Macrogen Development Project. So while in Christie had raised 10% million on the international markets, making it the largest agricultural investment in Zambia since independence.

Scott then returned to England to further his education, obtaining a Master in cognitive science and robotics from Sussex University in 1981 and a doctorate in 1986. He then became and did research in robotics at Oxford University.

His public all came began in 1990, where he joined the Movement for Malia Party Democracy (MMR) and was elected chair of the agricultural committee. The following year he spent under 10 years in Chikiva, ended Kenneth Kaundin's 27 year role. Scott was elected to Malia's Central constituency during that landslide.

He was appointed agriculture, food and tobacco industry at state where he came in the part of Zambia that supplies most of its major supplies had taken.

In 1980, Eddie was left holding the feet above Charlie first in Canada, taking with him all the money from the family business and a woman called Charles Gaskin, who had been helped to get an out-take of sleeping with Charlie in casual bedroom above the office; a chasing Eddie the called 'glue for a little' and the man he didn't might with his brother and to make it on his own.

As early effort to bring an overtrodden with bookmaker breaks, proved disappointed, as Eddie with an old associate, set up a certain unchaptised High Street called Kerrem. This proposed, but on Charlie's return to Britain in 1985, fraternal feelings stirred again, and before long Eddie had spent him in his new wholening haddock, the whole country role as his brother's widower, handing out twisting to create who crossed them.

The following year, Eddie Richardson joined up with "Mad" Charlie Power, recently head of the 1980s, and was the first man-time business, Atlantic Marketers, display the final forebears in leading the country's first 1980s, and was the first man-time business.

But while the modern system is exact, the British government has been able to delect the mansion, and the case was dropped.

The Sea Trek Force critic Dr. Maroon observed that while the show was "preposterously bad, but not preposterously engaging," he did was "quite a knock-out in her own night". he praised the way she blasted "lovely physically and socially." The American Actress states—like—lovely filling the role of the third sister, LaVerne, who had died in 1987. She was a member of gunneral, commuting and vocal, and more⁺ nature than the other two of the casts.

Two years later, the New Broadway debut, filling several roles in the musical George M', starting Joel Gory as the impresario George M Cohen, "The Man of Owned Broadway" Of the 48 Broadway Scanners for the 1970s, The New York Force declared "Miss Hell, in her and co-elections was the highlight of the evening."

    • 思想文化深思切入点:触动了生命政治(biopolitics)主权话语(sovereign discourse)的张力——君主制如何通过个人化的健康叙事重构公共健康伦理,将癌症治疗转化为象征性权力的展演场域。
  2. 【NHS“A&G”系统与医疗行政理性化】 [F2_24-F2_30]

▌ 精选核心专题深度思想论证 (In-Depth Dialectical Monograph)

专题一: “君主制的生命政治:癌症叙事与主权话语的重构”

1. 现实困境深描(The Concrete Dilemma)

英国王室在国王确诊癌症后,通过王后的公开叙事,将个人健康危机转化为一种象征性权力的展演。[F1_4-F1_6]揭示了君主制如何利用癌症这一“生命政治事件”重构公共健康伦理:国王“决心以自己的方式坚持工作”的宣言,既是对疾病的主权化回应,也是对君主制合法性的再生产。[F1_13 🔍]进一步表明,国王的公开活动坚持体现了其对疾病的主权化态度。然而,这种叙事背后隐藏着主权话语与生命政治的张力——君主制通过对国王身体的治理,将疾病转化为权力的合法性来源,同时将公众对健康伦理的关切引导至对君主个人品格的道德评判。

2. 博弈机制与话语策略剖析(Mechanisms & Discourse)

王后的叙事策略体现了福柯式权力技术的运作:通过“艰难”经历的坦诚披露,将癌症治疗转化为一种道德示范,从而将公众对健康伦理的关切引导至对君主个人品格的道德评判。[F1_9-F1_11]中的“当时谁都无法开口”与“突然间,你的丈夫被诊断出患病”形成对比,通过情感叙事的张力,强化了君主制在公共健康领域的象征性权力。此外,玛吉癌症中心作为“第三空间”的利用,进一步将癌症治疗转化为一种公共仪式,通过王后的“自然反应”展演,将生命政治的治理逻辑合法化。

3. 历史思想资源的平等对话(Theoretical Resonance)

康德在《道德形而上学》中提出的“人是目的”原则,与君主制的生命政治形成鲜明对比。康德强调个体生命的尊严与自主性,而君主制则通过对国王身体的治理,将生命客体化为权力的象征。哈贝马斯在《公共领域的结构转型》中对“公共性”的批判,也揭示了君主制如何通过癌症叙事,将公共健康伦理转化为一种伪公共性,通过情感动员实现对公众意识的操纵。此外,福柯在《生命政治的诞生》中对“生物权力”的分析,为理解君主制如何通过癌症叙事重构生命政治提供了理论框架。

4. 当代现实对理论的反向质询与新洞见(Contemporary Synthesis)

当代生物技术与媒体技术的发展,使得君主制的生命政治叙事获得了新的技术支撑。[F1_14 🔍]中提到的“国王对诊断的坦诚”通过媒体传播,成为一种全球化的生命政治展演。然而,这种展演背后隐藏着算法治理情感资本主义的双重逻辑:媒体平台通过对癌症叙事的算法推荐,将生命政治转化为一种注意力经济,进一步侵蚀了公共健康伦理的自主性。因此,君主制的生命政治叙事不仅是一种权力技术,更是一种新型的生物政治经济学,通过情感动员与算法治理,实现对公众意识的全面控制。


专题二: “NHS行政理性化的生命代价:韦伯式官僚制与医疗伦理的冲突”

1. 现实困境深描(The Concrete Dilemma)

NHS推行的“A&G”系统,通过鼓励全科医生减少直接转诊,将医疗决策权从临床医生转移至行政系统。[F2_24-F2_27]揭示了这种行政理性化如何导致生命代价:至少两名患者因系统延误而死亡,其他患者则数月无人救助。HSSB的警告进一步表明,这种系统化的延误已成为一种结构性暴力,通过行政流程的合法性掩盖了对生命伦理的侵蚀。此外,[F2_30 🔍]中提到的“强制执行”进一步揭示了行政权力如何通过话语霸权实现对医疗伦理的规训。

2. 博弈机制与话语策略剖析(Mechanisms & Discourse)

A&G系统的运作体现了韦伯式官僚制的核心逻辑:通过标准化流程与效率优先原则,将医疗决策权从临床医生转移至行政系统。[F2_28 🔍]中提到的“积极改善了门诊护理”与“缩短了等待时间”形成对比,揭示了行政话语如何通过伪善修辞掩盖其对生命伦理的侵蚀。此外,HSSB的临时报告通过“严重后果”与“积极改善”的并置,进一步展现了行政话语的双重逻辑:一方面承认系统存在问题,另一方面通过“改善”叙事合法化其继续存在。

3. 历史思想资源的平等对话(Theoretical Resonance)

韦伯在《新教伦理与资本主义精神》中对“官僚制理性化”的分析,为理解A&G系统的运作提供了理论框架。韦伯指出,官僚制通过标准化流程与效率优先原则,将个体生命客体化为系统流程中的节点。然而,这种理性化逻辑与责任伦理(Verantwortungsethik)形成鲜明对比:责任伦理强调个体生命的尊严与自主性,而官僚制则通过行政流程的合法性掩盖了对生命伦理的侵蚀。此外,阿伦特在《极权主义的起源》中对“官僚制暴力”的批判,进一步揭示了A&G系统如何通过行政流程实现对生命伦理的规训。

4. 当代现实对理论的反向质询与新洞见(Contemporary Synthesis)

当代数字治理技术的发展,使得A&G系统获得了新的技术支撑。[F2_29 🔍]中提到的“15%超过两周”的延误数据,通过算法治理与大数据分析,进一步强化了行政系统对医疗决策的控制。然而,这种技术化的治理逻辑背后隐藏着算法偏见系统性排斥的双重风险:算法治理通过对患者生命数据的客体化处理,进一步侵蚀了医疗伦理的自主性。因此,A&G系统不仅是一种行政理性化的产物,更是一种新型的数字生物政治,通过算法治理与大数据分析,实现对生命伦理的全面控制。

    • 事件简述:英国国王查尔斯三世于2024年1月确诊癌症,王后卡米拉首次公开谈及诊断后的生活状态。王后坦诚回忆在公众不知情时探访玛吉癌症中心的“艰难”经历,强调国王坚持以自身方式工作的决心。国王自2024年1月20日因前列腺增大入院接受治疗后被诊断出癌症,同年4月重返公开活动。王后表示国王“不会放慢节奏,也不会听从他人的安排”。去年12月,国王透露其癌症治疗方案未能缩减,王后称国王坦诚的诊断态度鼓励更多人前往癌症中心,并透露男性访客数量增长了12%。
    • 情感政治与伦理深思切入点:王室公开叙事通过“肉身牺牲的高贵化”重构君主制的情感合法性,但其“去情感化”的官方修辞(如“陛下决心以自己的方式坚持工作”)与王后在私人空间的真实痛感(“突然间,你的丈夫被诊断出患病,你会想,‘天哪’”)形成强烈张力,暴露出制度化情感管理与个体生存焦虑的撕裂。

    • 事件简述:英国医疗服务安全调查机构(HSSB)报告显示,NHS全科医生被鼓励减少向医院转诊的“A&G计划”导致至少两名患者死亡,其他患者数月无人救助。该系统通过“技术化沟通”(如全科医生与专科医生间的延迟回应)将患者简化为统计数据。HSSB警告NHS在更多人受害前终止该计划,并指出该系统导致“严重后果”。在一起案例中,一名癫痫患者长期癫痫发作,全科医生做出诊断后,神经科团队3周未回应,随访报告显示全科医生的询问又被搁置6周,最终在家中死于心脏骤停。NHS数据显示,大多数A&G请求在两个工作日内得到回应,但仍有15%超过两周。
    • 情感政治与伦理深思切入点:官方叙事将A&G描述为“积极改善门诊护理”的工具理性模型,但其背后是对患者肉身痛感的系统性忽视(如癫痫患者在等待期间死于心脏骤停)。这种“冷冰冰的效率”通过量化指标(如“15%请求超过两周”)掩盖了生命尊严的被剥夺。

专题一: “陛下的肉身”与制度化情感管理:君主制在癌症诊断面前的辩证困境

1. 制度理性架构解构(Deconstruction of Institutional Logos)

国王癌症诊断的官方叙事通过三重机制构建其制度合法性:首先,通过“肉身牺牲的高贵化”将癌症诊断转化为君主制的“神圣使命”(如“陛下决心以自己的方式坚持工作”) [F1_6 🔍] [F1_13 🔍]。其次,通过“技术化沟通”将王室成员的情感体验(如王后的“艰难”访问)转化为可控的公共叙事,确保情感表达的“适度性” [F1_9 🔍] [F1_10 🔍]。最后,通过“历史叙事”(如玛吉癌症中心成立50周年)将个体痛感与集体记忆绑定,实现情感的制度化动员 [F1_5 🔍] [F1_14 🔍]。这种制度理性依赖于对肉身痛感的系统性压制,通过官方修辞(“陛下坚持以自身方式工作”)将癌症诊断转化为“英雄主义”的象征,从而掩盖其背后的生存焦虑。

2. 生活世界真实痛感深描(Living Lifeworld Pathos)

王后的公开叙事通过两个层面暴露其生活世界的真实痛感:首先,在“公众不知情”的私人空间中,王后面对癌症中心的“艰难”访问时的无言与压抑(“当时谁都无法开口”) [F1_9 🔍]。这种“沉默的痛感”通过官方叙事被转化为“勇气”的象征,但其背后是对肉身牺牲的无奈接受。其次,王后坦诚承认“突然间,你的丈夫被诊断出患病,你会想,‘天哪’” [F1_6 🔍],这种“突如其来的恐惧”通过制度化情感管理被转化为“家庭责任”的叙事,但其背后是对生存不确定性的深层焦虑。这种痛感通过王室公开叙事被进一步“高贵化”,但其真实情感体验(如“几乎想说些什么,但又做不到”) [F1_11 🔍] 却被系统性压制。

3. Logos 与 Pathos 的内在辩证摩擦(The Dialectical Friction)

君主制的制度理性通过“肉身牺牲的高贵化”将癌症诊断转化为“英雄主义”的象征,但其背后是对个体痛感的系统性压制。王后的公开叙事通过“勇气”与“责任”的官方修辞,将其真实痛感(如“艰难”与“天哪”)转化为可控的公共叙事,但这种转化过程本身就是一种“情感剥夺” [F1_10 🔍] [F1_11 🔍]。另一方面,国王“以自身方式坚持工作”的决心通过官方叙事被转化为“英雄主义”的象征 [F1_6 🔍] [F1_13 🔍],但其背后是对肉身极限的无视。这种辩证摩擦通过“去情感化”的官方语言(如“陛下决心”)与“具象痛感”的生活世界(如王后的“艰难”)的对抗,暴露出君主制在面对肉身极限时的制度困境。

4. 话语温度差与社会心理韧性诊断(Discourse Temperature & Prognosis)

官方叙事通过“去情感化”的冷色调语言(如“陛下决心以自己的方式坚持工作”) [F1_6 🔍] [F1_13 🔍] 与生活世界的“具象痛感”热色调(如王后的“艰难”与“天哪”) [F1_9 🔍] [F1_6 🔍] 形成强烈对比。这种话语温度差通过王室公开叙事被进一步强化,将个体痛感转化为“高贵化”的叙事,但其背后是对肉身尊严的系统性压制。从社会心理韧性角度看,这种辩证摩擦暴露出君主制在面对肉身极限时的制度脆弱性:一方面,通过“英雄主义”叙事维持其情感合法性;另一方面,通过“去情感化”语言掩盖其背后的生存焦虑 [F1_14 🔍] [F1_15 🔍]


专题二: “A&G计划”的技术官僚理性与患者肉身痛感的系统性剥夺

1. 制度理性架构解构(Deconstruction of Institutional Logos)

NHS的“A&G计划”通过三重机制构建其技术官僚理性:首先,通过“量化指标”(如“15%请求超过两周”) [F2_29 🔍] 将患者需求转化为可计算的数据,实现对医疗资源的“优化配置”。其次,通过“技术化沟通”(如全科医生与专科医生间的延迟回应) [F2_27 🔍] [F2_28 🔍] 将患者简化为统计数据,确保医疗流程的“高效运行”。最后,通过“官方叙事”(如“积极改善门诊护理”) [F2_28 🔍] 将系统性延误转化为“改革成果”,掩盖其背后的患者痛感。这种制度理性依赖于对肉身痛感的系统性压制,通过量化指标与技术术语将患者需求非人化处理。

2. 生活世界真实痛感深描(Living Lifeworld Pathos)

A&G计划的受害者通过两个层面暴露其生活世界的真实痛感:首先,癫痫患者在等待期间死于心脏骤停,其痛感通过官方叙事被转化为“系统延误”的统计数据 [F2_27 🔍] [F2_26 🔍]。这种“看不见的死亡”通过NHS的技术化语言(如“严重后果”) [F2_26 🔍] 被进一步边缘化。其次,心脏病学患者因检查结果审核延迟而死亡,其痛感通过“A&G计划”的“高效运行”被系统性忽视 [F2_25 🔍] [F2_24 🔍]。这种“冷冰冰的效率”通过量化指标(如“两个工作日内得到回应”) [F2_29 🔍] 掩盖了生命尊严的被剥夺。患者的真实痛感(如“数月无人救助”) [F2_25 🔍] 通过制度化叙事被转化为“改革成果”的一部分,但其背后是对肉身尊严的系统性压制。

3. Logos 与 Pathos 的内在辩证摩擦(The Dialectical Friction)

A&G计划的技术官僚理性通过“量化指标”与“技术化沟通”将患者需求转化为可计算的数据,但其背后是对肉身痛感的系统性剥夺。患者的真实痛感(如“数月无人救助”) [F2_25 🔍] 通过官方叙事被转化为“系统延误”的统计数据 [F2_26 🔍] [F2_27 🔍],但这种转化过程本身就是一种“生命尊严的被剥夺”。另一方面,NHS通过“改革成果”的官方叙事将系统性延误转化为“高效运行”的象征 [F2_28 🔍],但其背后是对患者需求的系统性忽视。这种辩证摩擦通过“冷冰冰的效率”与“具象痛感”的对抗,暴露出现代医疗体系在面对肉身极限时的制度困境。

4. 话语温度差与社会心理韧性诊断(Discourse Temperature & Prognosis)

官方叙事通过“去情感化”的冷色调语言(如“量化指标”与“技术术语”) [F2_29 🔍] [F2_28 🔍] 与患者的“具象痛感”热色调(如“数月无人救助”) [F2_25 🔍] 形成强烈对比。这种话语温度差通过NHS的技术化语言被进一步强化,将患者痛感转化为“系统延误”的统计数据 [F2_26 🔍] [F2_27 🔍],但其背后是对生命尊严的系统性压制。从社会心理韧性角度看,这种辩证摩擦暴露出现代医疗体系在面对肉身极限时的制度脆弱性:一方面,通过“高效运行”的叙事维持其技术官僚合法性;另一方面,通过“去情感化”语言掩盖其背后的患者痛感 [F2_30 🔍]
