At a rally in Detroit, Republican candidate Donald Trump claimed that Kamala Harris would impose an electric vehicle 'mandate'. Harris, during a duelling rally in Oakland County, addressed the claim, saying 'contrary to what my opponent is suggesting, I will never tell you what kind of car you have to drive'. Harris then went on to say she would invest in American manufacturing and industry such as steel, iron and the auto industry

A rare copy of the US constitution printed 237 years ago and sent to the states to be ratified was sold for $9m at an auction Thursday evening in North Carolina . Brunk Auctions sold the document, the only copy of its type thought to be privately owned, at a private auction. The constitution copy wasn’t the only seven-figure purchase Thursday. Auction officials were not sure what the constitution document would go for because there is so little to compare it to. The last time a copy of the constitution that was sent to the states sold, it was for $400 in 1891.

It seems pretty likely that history will look back on the career of Andy Carroll (if at all) with a certain amount of puzzlement and confusion. It would be wonderful to experience that, in Bordeaux or elsewhere.”However, playing for the cash-strapped club does have the odd drawback.

✉ In May we booked a hotel, the Palmerston in Toronto, for November through Booking.com for a trip so that we could go to a Taylor Swift concert. In early August the hotel emailed to say the booking was no longer available and would be cancelled because the hotel was overbooked. I’m owed about £300 and am sure the hotel bumped us to resell the room for more when it realised Swift was in town.

A baffling tar ball emergency that closed major beaches in Sydney’s eastern suburbs appears to be over. The remaining beaches closed to bathers at Coogee, Maroubra and Clovelly have been cleared to reopen on Saturday after Bondi and several others reopened on Friday. But the cause of the deluge of black balls that began washing up on Coogee Beach earlier this week, prompting a major clean-up operation, remains unknown. “We’re investigating to try and find the source of the spill and who is responsible,” the environment minister, Penny Sharpe, said. Tar balls are formed when oil comes into contact with other debris and water, usually as a result of oil spills or seepage.

Joe Biden, the US president, said on Friday there was an opportunity to deal with Israel and Iran in a way that potentially ends their conflict in the Middle East for a while. Biden told reporters in Germany that the 'back and forth' between Iran and Israel could be stopped, and a ceasefire was possible in Lebanon too but said reaching a truce in Gaza would be 'harder'

Interesting non-biased article on MSN I just read discussing 4 teams with no win as yet..Ipswich Pts 4 GD -8Why have they struggled? But a few jitters may set in if they do not emerge from their next three games, all winnable, with a first victory. Liam Delap has hit the ground running after moving from City but their fate may hang on how quickly his fellow recruits find their rhythm. They do not look out of place and, with a few better decisions in attacking areas, would be significantly better off. He has barely put a foot wrong since arriving in December 2021 and will be forgiven a few bumps in the road this season.

Donald Trump will face Kamala Harris in the 2024 race for the White House after an eventful start to the campaign. The winner will serve four years in the White House starting from their inauguration on Jan 20 2025.

This includes healthcare as well as other, perhaps more important, public services from local governments such as education, housing, and employment and job placement services. In light of this it is surprising that there are still calls for more finite public money to be funnelled into the NHS.91011 But where is all of this money going to come from? And what is the opportunity cost of all this money only going into the NHS in light of the even tougher situation other public services are facing? Clinicians and commissioners need to acknowledge this fact and shift their focus to delivering value-based healthcare that will see NHS services improve patient and population outcomes while optimising resource utilisation. Footnotes Competing interests: AJ and MG both work for the Oxford Value and Stewardship Programme, which aims to improve the value of healthcare services.
