LONDON — U.K. Labour leader Keir Starmer has launched a reshuffle of his top team as parliament returns from recess.The move by the opposition boss, whose party is ahead of the governing Conservatives in the polls with an expected 2024 general election looming, comes after Prime Minister Rishi Sunak reshuffled his Cabinet last week.First to step down in the reshuffle is shadow secretary of state for environment, food, and rural affairs Jim McMahon.In Starmer’s letter accepting McMahon’s resignation, Starmer said he understands the former frontbencher has faced a “number of personal challenges” in addition to his work on the environment brief.The leader of the opposition has not yet announced who will replace McMahon. The Labour reshuffle is being closely watched to see whether Starmer moves Angela Rayner, his directly elected deputy who currently shadows the Cabinet Office and work briefs. “It’s all about Angela,” a party official told POLITICO London Playbook. “They have to find a ...Novo Nordisk’s weight loss drug launches in UK
Published Wed, 27 Nov 2024 06:33:01 GMT
Novo Nordisk’s hotly anticipated weight loss drug has arrived in the U.K. with limited stocks soon to be offered to those most in need.The Wegovy injection, which contains the drug semaglutide, will be available to people with obesity and at least one other disease who attend specialist National Health Service weight management services. Some supplies will also be available to buy privately, the Danish firm said in a statement.The drug is only available alongside a plan of diet and exercise in a “controlled and limited launch,” the company said.Novo Nordisk’s weekly injection has been in high demand since trial data showed people who took the drug lost some 15 percent of their body weight compared with those given a placebo. Social media influencers jumped on the drug, and subsequent studies showing additional heart health benefits have added to its wonder drug reputation.To date, Novo Nordisk has launched Wegovy in the U.S., Denmark, Norway and Germany. However, in the U.S. supplie...Police investigation underway outside night club in Mattapan

On the cusp of potentially beginning an initiative petition process to end the MCAS graduation requirement, the MTA is not the organization it once was — the increasingly larger, stronger union is transitioning into an ever-more active legislative agent.“Our evolution more recently, in the last decade, the MTA has become a central actor in helping advance policies for public schools and colleges as well,” said MTA President Max Page. “Doing that by fighting for educators’ voice at work, their working conditions, as well as fighting for the broader common good to support our students and their families.”In the last few years, Page pointed out, the union has been active in the successful fights for the Fair Share Amendment, Massachusetts millionaire’s tax passed by ballot measure in 2022; the Student Opportunity Act, an influx of education funding passed through the Legislature in 2019; and a state bill expanding paid family medical leave and ...Orioles reset: With playoffs looming, Baltimore believes it’s learned from last year’s near miss

The Orioles might be young, but they’re not new to this.Sure, this group has never been this good. But many of the players in Baltimore’s clubhouse went through a pressurized stretch run last year.The 2022 Orioles entered September two games back of a wild-card spot, but the magic the club found in the summer waned as it missed the postseason by three games. Anthony Santander, one of the veterans who braved the rebuild, believes knowing what it feels like to compete for a playoff spot — and to fall short of one — will help down the stretch as the Orioles look to win their first American League East title since 2014.“I think last year’s experience really helped us,” Santander said through team interpreter Brandon Quinones. “We’ve been through a stretch here where we’ve been in first place for a while. I think the important thing is to just take it day by day, continuing to work hard each and every day with that preparation. ...UN nuclear watchdog report seen by AP says Iran slows its enrichment of near-weapons-grade uranium
Published Wed, 27 Nov 2024 06:33:01 GMT
VIENNA (AP) — Iran has slowed its enrichment of uranium at nearly weapons-grade levels, a report by the United Nations’ nuclear watchdog seen by The Associated Press said Monday. The confidential report comes as Iran and the United States are negotiating a prisoner swap and the release of billions of dollars in Iranian assets frozen in South Korea. Slowing its enrichment of uranium could serve as another sign that Tehran seeks to lower tensions between it and America after years of tensions since the collapse of its 2015 nuclear deal with world powers. The report by the International Atomic Energy Agency said Iran has 121.6 kilograms (268 pounds) of uranium enriched up to 60%, a far-slower growth than in previous counts. An IAEA report in May put the stockpile of 60% uranium at just over 114 kilograms (250 pounds). It had 87.5 kilograms (192 pounds) in February.Uranium enriched at 60% purity is just a short, technical step away from weapons-grade levels of 90%. Iran has mainta...Latest news
