UK has got ‘fat’ on decades of free labour by women, says MP Jess Phillips
Minister points to ‘sexist’ practice of country relying on women to provide services so government did not have to Labour MP Jess Phillips has said the UK has got “fat” from the free labour of women for decades. The minister for safeguarding and violence against women and girls said the country has relied on women providing charity, adding it was a “fundamentally sexist” practice that meant the government was less willing to provide the service itself. She said she “hated” the title of her role and added that safeguarding against gender-based violence should be “business as usual in every single government department”. The Birmingham Yardley MP also suggested there was an issue in Whitehall where government departments viewed violence against women and girls as solely a Home Office issue. Phillips said she had to push for the safety of women and girls to be a “mainstream concern”, which she said had not always made her “popular as a government minister”. Asked what pushback she had received from ministers or civil servants, she said: “People directly say things like, ‘That’s the Home Office’s job’. “Why is it my job to do healthy relationship education in schools? Why is it my job to provide mental health support for whatever reason it is that you ended up in that [situation]?’. “Do you know what it is? Free labour of women is where it comes from. “It comes from a fundamentally sexist place in that women didn’t have these services, so a load of women across the country got together and made these services and offered them to other women for free, and they didn’t get paid for their labour. “So they put down a mattress and made a refuge. They set up counselling services and got people who were trained to be therapists and got their voluntary hours and set it up for free.” Phillips said people do not recognise how heavily the UK has relied on women providing support that previously did not exist. She added: “Nobody offered diabetes medicine for free. Pharmaceutical companies didn’t go, ‘Wow, this is really important. People will die without this. We’ll just give it away for free’. “That is what the women in our country did in the 1960s and 1970s and 1980s and we got fat on that expectation that that service will be provided for free. “And we also belittled it as an issue that wasn’t absolutely, fundamentally mainstream to the safety and security of our nation. “Undoing that is really hard and it’s going to take a long time.” Continue reading...

AI chatbots are becoming popular alternatives to therapy. But they may worsen mental health crises, experts warn
Users may be led down conspiracy theory rabbit holes or into emotional harm by chatbots designed to maximise engagement and affirmation, some say Get our breaking news email, free app or daily news podcast In 2023, a Belgian man reportedly ended his life after developing eco-anxiety and confiding in an AI chatbot over six weeks about the future of the planet. Without those conversations, his widow reportedly told the Belgian outlet La Libre, “he would still be here”. In April this year, a 35-year-old Florida man was shot and killed by police in another chatbot-related incident: his father later told media that the man had come to believe an entity named Juliet was trapped inside ChatGPT, and then killed by OpenAI. When the man, who reportedly struggled with bipolar disorder and schizophrenia, was confronted by police, he allegedly charged at them with a knife. Continue reading...

Manchester United’s ‘Wembley of the North’ stadium plan hits the buffers
Talks deadlocked over asking price of rail terminal site Freightliner’s £400m demand could delay £4.2bn build Manchester United’s plans to build a 100,000-seat stadium next to Old Trafford are facing delays due to a standoff over the price of land needed to begin work on the construction of the proposed ground Sir Jim Ratcliffe has called “the Wembley of the North”. The club want land used as a rail freight terminal to complete the Old Trafford Regeneration Project, which they claim will bring £7.3bn a year to the UK economy. United have held talks with Freightliner, the haulage company that owns and operates the terminal, about buying the land, but negotiations are deadlocked due to a disagreement over the price.

Republicans slam Trump’s firing of Bureau of Labor Statistics chief
President claimed that recently released figures showing jobs slowdown was ‘rigged’ to make him look bad Senior Republican lawmakers are condemning the decision of their party leader, Donald Trump, to fire the leading US labor market statistician after a report that showed the national economy added just 73,000 jobs – far fewer than expected – in July. The disappointing figures – coupled with a downward revision of the two previous months amounting to 258,000 fewer jobs and data showing that economic output and consumer spending slowed in the first half of the year – point to an overall economic deterioration in the US.

Trump says Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs’s past comments make pardoning him ‘more difficult’

Trump spoke about Combs during an interview on Friday night on the friendly environs of Newsmax. Combs was found guilty on 2 July of two counts of transportation to engage in prostitution, with each leaving him facing up to 10 years in prison – but he was acquitted of more serious sex-trafficking and racketeering conspiracy charges.

Durham disclosures further undermine Gabbard’s claims of plot against Trump
Declassified document contains deflating conclusion for DNI director that Russian spies were behind key 2016 emails Tulsi Gabbard, the director of US national intelligence, hoped to uncover evidence that Barack Obama and his national security team conspired to undermine Donald Trump in a slow-motion coup. But if her crusade was aimed at proving that Obama embarked on a “treasonous conspiracy” to falsely show that Russia intervened in the 2016 presidential election to help Trump, Gabbard made a mistake. A previously classified annexe to a report by another special counsel, John Durham – appointed towards the end of Trump’s first presidency – has further undermined Gabbard’s case.

VIP contract introduced by Tory peer left government owed £24m

Peter Gummer, a former PR boss who has been Tory peer Lord Chadlington since 1996, had smooth access at his fingertips.

How the courts became the biggest roadblock to Trump’s plans
Judges issued about 35 nationwide injunctions blocking various Trump orders before the supreme court stepped in, according to independent analysis from the Guardian A federal judge’s ruling last week to maintain a sweeping nationwide ban on Donald Trump’s birthright citizenship order highlights the dizzying legal battle that has defined the administration’s opening months, with courts issuing dozens of such sweeping orders to systematically halt abrasive elements of the president’s agenda. US district judge Leo Sorokin in Boston rejected Trump administration arguments to narrow his nationwide injunction, a court order that prohibits the federal government from enforcing a law or policy against anyone across the nation, and not just the people who filed the legal challenge.

Good, mad and ugly: the US economy’s performance under Trump – in charts
Despite president’s claims of an economic boom, picture is chaotic – healthy GDP growth but weak jobs figures According to Donald Trump’s White House, the US economy is booming, inflation is dead and jobs are surging. A blizzard of economic reports has cast a pall on such claims in recent days. This week’s data on Trump’s early economic record was mixed – good, mad and ugly – with jobs numbers so weak he reached for the catchphrase he once used to build himself into a reality TV star: you’re fired.

How a high-speed ocean chase led to an £18m cocaine seizure in Cornwall
Operation also shed unique light on backgrounds of those involved in running drugs into UK from ‘mother ships’ Public urged to help catch gangs bringing drugs on ‘mother ships’ to UK coast To the surfers and dog walkers on the Cornish beach it must have looked like a scene from a crime thriller. An ocean chase ending with two boats crunching aground on the sand, a stumbling attempt by three men to escape into the dunes, dramatic arrests and the discovery of millions of pounds of cocaine. For the investigators it was the start of a painstaking investigation that has shone a unique light into a tactic used by South American drug gangs and British organised crime groups known as at-sea drop-offs or Asdos, in which bales of cocaine fitted with GPS trackers are dumped at sea from a transatlantic “mother” ships to be picked up by small vessels and smuggled into the UK via quiet coves and harbours.
