Still reeling from the Stanford report on Brexit. Reduced GDP by up to 8% and investment by as much as 18%. The UK Treasury would have £40 billion more each year if Britain had remained in the EU. Devastating self-immolation.

I'm not sure why the British Prime Minister (in this capacity) sends public condolences on the shooting of Kirk who has had no government office or public life achievement. Technically, Kirk was the co-founder & CEO of a US non-profit. It's a domestic incident. I find this diplomatically unusual.

Caring is tough, but it can also be beautiful. It shapes relationships in ways that last a lifetime.
If we can find the will to support carers properly, we will not only ease the strain on our health system but also make Britain a better place to live.
