Early diagnosis is so vital, yet so difficult. Thatβs why I met with Alzheimerβs Research UK to learn more about their fight for more accessible and less invasive early diagnosis.
What is happening in Gaza is genocide.
While Prime Minister Netanyahu & President Trump have the ultimate power to stop it, Britain has agency too.
The Government should do everything in its power to stop this genocide, get the aid flowing and help bring the hostages home.
What is happening in Gaza is a genocide. And the President of the United States is doing nothing to stop it.
Keir Starmer must raise this with Trump during the state visit.
Elon Musk openly called for violence on our streets yesterday.
I hope politicians from all parties come together to condemn his deeply dangerous and irresponsible rhetoric.
Britain must stand united against this clear attempt to undermine our democracy.

It is very nearly the tenth anniversary of that brief moment when, for 2 or 3 days, British newspapers remembered refugees are desperate human beings who need our help, rather than scum that it's okay to threaten with violence.

But bad news for me, and any other people of Irish descent as well.
The Prime Minister must act with immediate airdrops of much-needed aid into Gaza and get other countries to do the same.
It is simply inhumane that Gaza faces starvation due to Israelβs aid blockade. Words alone wonβt save lives.
OK, so not a fan of Reform, but political assistants are pretty common. They are also subject to a fair amount of control. See here and related links in this article. www.gov.uk/government/p...

The Prime Minister should make it clear that the UK won't stand idly by, starting by sanctioning Netanyahu himself.

The people of Iran have suffered under a brutal regime for far too long.
But a US President planning regime change in the Middle East feels like 2003 all over again. Weβve seen where that path leads and it does not end well.

Baffled by the βrequired investmentsβ in ISAs. It will probably raise tax by restricting the tax efficient wrapper but it doesnβt make sense. Does anyone really think that the βcashβ is just sitting there in a cash ISA? Itβs being lent out by banks, surely? And it distributes the risk.
