Rishi Sunak and Keir Starmer went head to head in the last live TV debate before voters go to the polls next week. The two party leaders were questioned before a BBC studio audience in Nottingham, where a series of tetchy exchanges demonstrated that migration continues to be tricky ground for Labour politically. Sunak demanded to know what Starmer would do about asylum seekers who arrive in the UK by crossing the Channel in small boats. Starmer in turn said that illegal migrants 'can't go anywhere' as asylum claims were not 'being processed'
Five things we learned from the final Sunak-Starmer debate before polling
,1,The White Helmets say at least 18 people were killed by Russian airstrikes on five Syrian healthcare facilities, including a maternity hospital. A video from Idlib showed plumes of smoke rising over the city, streets covered in ash, and cars on fire in a residential neighbourhood.
,1,The House of Commons voted in favour of the terminally ill adults (end of life) bill on Friday, with 330 lawmakers for and 275 against. Under the bill mentally competent, terminally ill adults in England and Wales who are assessed by doctors to have six months or less left to live would be allowed the right to choose to end their lives with medical help.
MPs vote for bill to legalise assisted dying in England and Wales
,1,A ceasefire aimed at ending the 14-month-old war between Israel and Hezbollah officially came into effect early on Wednesday morning, hours after Joe Biden hailed the 'historic' moment.

The ceasefire began at 0200 GMT – 4am in Lebanon – after the heaviest day of raids on Beirut, including a series of strikes in the city’s centre, since Israel stepped up its air campaign in Lebanon in late September before sending in ground troops.
By 7am there were no immediate reports of alleged violations of the truce. Some celebratory gunshots could be heard in parts of Beirut’s southern suburbs

,1,Speaking outside court in Avignon David Pelicot, the eldest son of Gisèle and Dominique Pelicot, said his father was a ‘monster’. Dominique Pelicot is accused of drugging Gisèle, then inviting dozens of men to rape her while she was unconscious. The couple’s daughter, Caroline Darian, who testified earlier in the trial, told the court again that she believed she had also been abused by her father

,1,The US president said in remarks following the US supreme court's ruling that granted broad immunity to Donald Trump and other presidents from prosecution that it set a 'dangerous precedent'. 'I know I will respect the limits of presidential power as I have for the last three-and-a-half years, but any president, including Donald Trump, will now be free to ignore the law,' he said.
,1,Senior reporter at Politico and founder of Food Fix, Helena Bottemiller Evich, joins the program to discuss problems at the FDA. The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) took three months to announce a recall of infant formula after officials learned of positive bacteria tests at a major plant, mirroring the agency's slow response to similar issues in the past. Reckitt, a major formula manufacturer, issued a recall for 145,000 cans of Enfamil ProSobee Simply Plant-Based Infant Formula in late February due to potential cross-contamination with the deadly pathogen Cronobacter sakazakii, the same bacteria that led to last year's infant formula crisis, sparking coverage in dozens of news outlets.

Want to Welcome to the program Helena Bottemiller Evich
founder of the publication food fix and a contributor to Politico. Helena is welcome to the program. Thanks for having me. Let's start with there we're just I guess a day or two away from or we just saw a sizable reorganization at the FDA. What can you tell us about that? I'm curious as to how long has that need been building? What was the reorganization about? yeah, a lot of people I think a lot of consumers and eaters have not really been fully aware of the problems facing the FDA when it comes to their regulation and oversight of food. but really over the past year, we've seen a lot of scrutiny over the FDA's handling of food safety of nutrition. The infant formula shortage crisis. You know, reports of illnesses and deaths among infants really brought this into the national media. and so the FDA has been under a lot of pressure to have better leadership to have a better structure in place. We didn't know who was in charge of food. That there was a decentralized leadership structure there which created Power struggles and slowness and decision-making. and so the reorganization FDA announced yesterday is really aiming to try to put someone clearly in charge of food at the agency. and try to centralize some of the decision-making. It's gotten mixed reviews. a lot of people don't think it went quite far enough. But it is a big change. Two questions one being when you say in charge of food like what else are they in charge of? or I guess I mean drugs I imagine it would be the other. But how long is this D where did this how long has this problem been going on? In terms of like was there a structural change you know before this one that decentralized things like. What is the predicate to the need for this? Yeah, all great questions. I think the FDA has been dysfunctional on the food side for a long time for decades but we did see the leadership structure change during the Trump Administration. they eliminated a Deputy Commissioner position that helped sort of centralize decision-making at FDA. so it's been a few years that we have not had a Deputy Commissioner however I think the problems are a lot deeper than just the organizational chart. There are cultural problems at the FDA. There's a fear of taking on the food industry. There's a lot of bureaucracy to contend with and so we see you know really key safety and health issues. It takes years sometimes decades, to get out of that agency. And I think there's a broad recognition now that that slowness on things like food safety reduces sodium in the food supply setting. heavy metal limits for baby food. These are issues that consumers expect FDA to be handling.

“What should be clear, from this contribution, is that the United States is not going to take any serious action on climate change any time soon,” Mr Canavan told Sky News host Peta Credlin.
“There’s not a single voice within the Republican Party that is calling for radical action on climate change, certainly going nowhere near things like net zero.
“The US is not going to be a reliable partner on this ridiculous agenda.”

On November 6, 2024 UCSD Prof Brian Keating spoke at UC Riverside Public Lecture Series.
Explore one of the most profound questions in cosmology: Was There a Big Bang? Join Dr. Brian Keating in this captivating talk as he dives into the origins of the universe, the concept of the Big Bang, and the revolutionary discoveries shaping modern astrophysics. Learn about groundbreaking experiments like the Simons Observatory and BICEP2, the challenges of studying cosmic relics like the Cosmic Microwave Background, and the thrilling quest to understand whether our universe is unique or part of a vast multiverse.
Dr. Keating weaves together science, philosophy, and humor to address three fundamental mysteries:
• How did the universe begin? (00:09:00)
• Is there evidence for a multiverse? (00:16:30)
• What does it mean for humanity to explore these cosmic questions? (00:25:15)
Featuring anecdotes from Nobel laureates, insights into inflationary theory, and the humility of scientific discovery, this talk challenges the boundaries of what we know about existence itself. A must-watch for anyone curious about the cosmos and our place within it.
