(July 2): AstraZeneca is considering moving its stock market listing from London, where it is the exchange's most valuable company, to the US, the Times reported on Tuesday, citing multiple sources. Any such move would be a major blow to the UK stock market, which has seen a string of delistings and missed out on some major initial public offerings in recent months. CEO Pascal Soriot has privately expressed a preference to shift AstraZeneca's listing on multiple occasions and has also discussed relocating the company's domicile, the Times said. AstraZeneca, which has a market value of about £156 billion (RM901.13 billion), declined to comment. Its US plans include a US$3.5 billion investment in domestic manufacturing by the end of 2026.

AstraZeneca Plc’s Chief Executive Officer Pascal Soriot wants to move the drugmaker’s stock listing to the US, the Times reported, in what would be another sign of the UK’s waning status as a magnet for global capital. The pharma chief is frustrated at the UK’s regulatory regime for drugs and concerned that the country’s life sciences industry is falling behind the US and China, the newspaper said, citing people familiar with the situation. Soriot has also discussed moving AstraZeneca’s domicile, the Times said.

The upcoming 10-year plan for the NHS will reportedly pledge to prioritise UK medical graduates – and other doctors who have worked in the NHS ‘for a significant period’ – for foundation and specialty training. It will also reportedly criticise the previous Conservative Government for expanding training ‘without a commensurate expansion in postgraduate training places’. Describing this as ‘unacceptable’, the plan will prioritise ‘UK medical graduates and other doctors who have worked in the NHS for a significant period for foundation and specialty training’. It comes after the BMA backed a proposal to prioritise UK medical school graduates over international medical graduates (IMGs) for training posts, at their national conference last month. Doctor leaders raised concerns over ‘exponentially increasing competition ratios for speciality training, driven primarily by overseas recruitment’ and voted in favour of a motion to guarantee all UK medical school graduates a foundation programme post for all future recruitment cycles, as well as offering UK graduates specialty training posts first.

(Reuters) -AstraZeneca is considering moving its stock market listing from London, where it is the exchange's most valuable company, to the United States, the Times reported on Tuesday, citing multiple sources. Any such move would be a major blow to the UK stock market, which has seen a string of delistings and missed out on some major initial public offerings in recent months. It would also appeal to President Donald Trump's hopes of drawing investment to the United States, even as his trade policy has created uncertainty for global companies. AstraZeneca, which has a market value of about 156 billion pounds ($213 billion), declined to comment. Its U.S. plans include a $3.5 billion investment in domestic manufacturing by the end of 2026.

Calls have been made to “future proof” the adult social care sector and address disparities between it and the NHS, as a major investigation into the UK’s response to the Covid-19 pandemic resumes. The extreme challenges faced by social care workers, people receiving care and their families during the pandemic are being investigated, as part of the UK Covid-19 Inquiry. These include organisations representing the bereaved, care workers, nurses and decisionmakers. He concluded his evidence by calling for a “future proofing” of adult social care with better resources and staffing. Mr Friedman said that there was a misunderstanding by policymakers and the public about what social care is, with too much of a focus on care homes, and not enough on domiciliary and home care.

A British court on Tuesday gave a life sentence to a 92-year-old man for a crime committed in 1967, in one of the country’s oldest cold cases. A jury had found the man, Ryland Headley, guilty on Monday of the murder and rape of a 75-year-old British woman, nearly six decades after a neighbor found her body in her home outside Bristol, England, according to Avon and Somerset Police. The judge, Derek Sweeting, said during the sentencing that Mr. Headley had shown a “complete disregard for human life and dignity,” according to a statement from the police after the sentencing hearing on Tuesday. He said that Mr. Headley “met her screams and struggles with force sufficient to kill.”Mr. Headley’s sentence includes a minimum of 20 years in prison before consideration for parole. Given his age, Judge Sweeting told him, “you will never be released, you will die in prison.”

Hundreds of Turkish Islamists have attacked a satirical magazine after claiming that it published a cartoon depicting the Prophet Muhammad. Protestors chanted ‘tooth for tooth, blood for blood, revenge, revenge’ outside the office of LeMan, which denied that the image was of Muhammad. The attackers targeted the magazine for publishing cartoons of the Prophet Muhammad. ‘This caricature is not a caricature of the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon his name),’ they tweeted. Religious values and the image of the Prophet Muhammad – who is not supposed to be depicted – are highly sacred in Turkish society.
