According to The Times, the report found “poor care is all frequently tolerated as normal, and women are treated as an inconvenience”. It says many more women experience some trauma symptoms, such as intense anxiety or flashbacks, but not enough for a PTSD diagnosis. The women’s health minister apologised to women affected by birth trauma, following the findings of a parliamentary inquiry.

The Guardian has reported that “900 parents of IDF soldiers have written a letter to Defense Minister Gallant urging the regime to call off the death trap Rafah attack.” They are concerned that their family members in uniform will meet their end in what they believe is a reckless endeavor concocted by Netanyahu’s regime. It should be noted that the authors of the letter did not express concern for the ethnic cleansing and mass slaughter of non-combatants in Gaza. Pure self-interest could be the catalyst for a sea change in support for the war among family members of deployed soldiers. Condemned by the Gods for his deception on earth, he was consigned to Hades to roll a huge boulder up a steep hill for eternity. The PM has embarked on a Sisyphean task to eliminate the idea of Hamas—an utterly futile project since his brutal methods only perpetuate it.

The ancient fish were successfully hatched by scientists in Tasmania using two adults and 50 eggs. The Maugean skate is thought to be found only in the vast harbour on the state’s west coast. Numbers have fallen sharply due to the impact of salmon farms, hydro power stations altering upstream river flows, gillnet fishing and rising harbour temperatures due to the climate crisis, studies have found

UK Prime Minister Rishi Sunak insisted on Monday that his beleaguered governing Conservative party can win a general election despite polls consistently indicating the opposite, but refused to set a date for the vote. "I'm convinced that the next few years will be some of the most dangerous, yet most transformational, our country has ever known," Sunak added. Its repeated attacks on Starmer also gave an indication of a potentially bitter and personal election battle ahead. Asked about Sunak's speech, Starmer said security would be the "first priority" of a Labour administration. He said the choice at the ballot box would be between "a changed Labour Party that puts the country first and party second" and "the chaos and division" of the Conservatives.

Three men have been charged with assisting the Hong Kong intelligence service, the London Metropolitan Police said on Monday, following an investigation in which arrests and searches were carried out across England. The three people charged under Britain’s National Security Act were identified as Chi Leung (Peter) Wai, 38, of Staines-upon-Thames, Matthew Trickett, 37, of Maidenhead, and Chung Biu Yuen, 63, of Hackney, East London. “The foreign intelligence service to which the above charges relate is that of Hong Kong,” the police said in a statement. All three men were to appear at Westminster Magistrates’ Court on Monday. As court proceedings are now active, Britain’s reporting restrictions apply, preventing speculation about the case.

Thousands of people fled the Jabaliya refugee camp in northern Gaza on Monday as Israel intensified its attacks. Israel issued an evacuation order for the camp on Saturday, as it prepared to expand its military operation.

Fighting was also reported in Rafah, where at least 300,000 people have fled amid an Israeli offensive

Amandine Muller from Grand-Est and Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes’ Célia Gery were in the lead of the race, with the rest of the peloton over three minutes behind. What followed looked like a nasty crash, as Gery, following closely behind Muller, also came down. Fortunately, both the riders came out alright in the crash, with Gery taking the win and Muller finishing second, three minutes and forty-two seconds behind. — Arjan (@Ajmetcijfertjes) May 12, 2024As bizarre as this incident seems to me, this is surely not the first time we’re seeing the impact of a car driver’s actions in a cycling race.

This year, tennis enthusiasts at Wimbledon might notice strawberries of a larger size and richer flavor, attributed to a wet and dark winter that extended the growing period. The British strawberry season has been delayed by two weeks, with the peak harvest anticipated at the end of June. Nick Marston, chair of British Berry Growers: "The slower ripening period will allow flavors to develop as the strawberries grow to become particularly large and juicy. It will be a fantastic year for British strawberries." Marston also hinted at the possibility of larger varieties of other berries, depending on future conditions.

May 13, 2024 21:00:00Google Cloud misconfiguration deletes pension account data for over 500,000 people, backups for other regions also disappear, and data is restored from backups of other servicesIn May 2024, an issue occurred at the Australian pension fund UniSuper that prevented members from accessing their accounts. It took a week to restore the system, but UniSuper released a joint statement with Google Cloud, revealing that the issue was caused by a configuration error by Google Cloud, not a cyber attack. According to the announcement, when Google Cloud was provisioning UniSuper's private cloud service, it accidentally made a configuration error, which ultimately led to the deletion of UniSuper's subscription. Google Cloud CEO Thomas Kurian described the incident as a 'unique event' that has never happened before among Google Cloud's global clients. UniSuper also had backups in place with another service provider, which helped minimize data loss.

Riot police armed with water cannon and teargas have been accused of beating protesters who picketed outside Georgia’s parliament to try to stop a final vote on a controversial 'foreign influence' law. Critics fear the bill, which is due to have its third reading on Monday and final vote on Tuesday, will stifle the media and NGOs. The US has said parliamentarians must choose between Kremlin-style laws or the Euro-Atlantic democratic path they had embarked upon

I wanted to understand what attempts it had made to anticipate and plan for such problems as part of developing its workforce plan and whether it had tried to modify or avoid serious risks. So, in February I sent NHSE a freedom of information request asking if it could share the risk assessment that had accompanied the workforce plan. My requests were met openly, with only names of individual officials redacted.14 For such a major policy initiative with such serious long term implications, I was surprised by just how scant the risk assessment was. But I have serious doubts about the rigour of the risk assessment, the lack of impact assessment, and the failure to anticipate the backlash against some of the plan’s elements. There’s no cross party commitment to the plan, which puts its delivery at risk after the next general election.
