Rishi Sunak told The Sun illegal migration offends a British "notion of fairness".

Rishi Sunak and Keir Starmer.

Labour is set to sweep to power with more than 400 MPs – echoing Tony Blair’s electoral landslide of 1997.

A YouGov poll suggests Keir Starmer’s party will win 403 seats – or a huge majority of 154 – as the Tories slip to just 155 MPs, a loss of 210 seats.

In the 1997 election, Blair’s “New Labour” won 418 out of the available 659 House of Commons seats.

The pollster added the “coming tidal wave” puts prominent Tories at serious risk of losing their seats... Читать дальше...

Her book, Ten Years to Save the West, is to be published on April 16.

Liz Truss has been mocked on social media for championing her brand of conservatism as she promoted her new book.

Truss was prime minister for 49 days, the shortest term in British history, quitting after her avowedly free market policies bombed.

The book will defend her time as PM, where she offered a package of unfunded tax cuts that sent the pound into freefall and led to an intervention by the Bank of England to stabilise the economy. Читать дальше...

“Gut health” has become a hot topic in recent years, and for good reason, with Google Trends reporting a huge increase in related searches since 2022. But how much do we really know about our guts?

We spoke with Julie Thompson, a gastroenterology dietitian and information manager at Guts UK Charity, the charity for the digestive system. They have joined forces withIMODIUM®, GB’s leading anti-diarrhoea brand, to talk all things guts and what we’re getting wrong when it comes to looking after them.

One of the most daunting aspects of supporting a loved one who has dementia is understanding what the final stages of their life will be. 

Going back to work after having a baby is daunting for any parent. You spend essentially a year glued to this tiny human and then bam — you’re in the office and can’t check up on them every second of the day.

James Corden on the set of his now-defunct US talk show

James Corden has admitted not everyone seems convinced about the nature of his exit from The Late, Late Show since he relocated back to the UK.

Last year, James stepped down as the host of his US talk show in order for him and his family to be able to spend more time in his home country.

However, it appears not everyone believes the Gavin & Stacey creator when he tells them how things played out.

Zine Tseng as Ye Wenjie in the first instalment of 3 Body Problem

Since its release around two weeks ago, 3 Body Problem has been hovering near the top of Netflix’s most-watched list – and it has barely budged.

While many of us are still discovering what the hit sci-fi drama (based on Chinese author Liu Cixin’s book series) is all about, others have already binged all eight episodes.

If you fall into the latter camp, there’s a fair chance that you’re already pondering what could be next for 3 Body Problem. Читать дальше...

Dominic West in a recent Nationwide ad campaign

An ad for the building society Nationwide featuring Dominic West has been banned by the Advertising Standards Authority.

The ASA received 281 complaints about the Crown star’s Nationwide ads, in which he played a sneering and superior bank manager.

In the ad, Dominic’s character was heard mocking customers’ concerns about losing their life savings and other banks closing local branches.

At the end, a voiceover declared: “Unlike... Читать дальше...

Childbirth is one of those things you can never truly be prepared for, but you can cushion the blow with research. Before I had my first child, I would spend hours trawling the internet for information on how it feels.

Is there anything more annoying than the hiccups?

You’ve eaten too fast, enjoyed your drink a little *too* much and suddenly, your body is insisting you pay the price by making you make these little ‘hic’ noises like a little frog sat in the corner. 

We’ve all been told the old wive’s tales about how to get rid of them, from jumping out at people unexpectedly to ‘shock’ them into stopping or just drinking a glass of water upside-down. Nbd.

However, it seems we may now actually have the solution to hiccups. Читать дальше...

In a recent post shared to X (formerly Twitter), site user @benyahr jokily shared a meme of a concerned woman’s face under the heading “when your doctor has to Google something in front of you.” 

It would be nice if people would filter the things they say to new parents, leaving out any comments that might not be received as helpful or reassuring. Unfortunately, plenty of folks — both those who have kids and those that don’t — see a vulnerable new parent as an open invitation to air their own grievances, insecurities or anxieties. Whether their issues are with their own parents, their own children or some kind of internal conflict, toxic comments generally reveal more about the speaker than the person they’re addressing.

Sniffing is your dog's way of understanding their surroundings.

If you’re a dog owner, you’ve probably gotten stuck on a walk much longer than anticipated because of your dog’s incessant sniffing.

While it may feel annoying in the moment, especially if you’re in a rush, research shows it’s important to let your dog sniff for their own wellbeing. People have even suggested that sniffing is essentially a dog’s form of social media — meaning it provides them with entertainment and enrichment. Читать дальше...

Learning how to connect two people over email is a social skill everyone needs to learn. 

It rarely gets the attention it deserves, but food’s texture is just as important as its flavor. Bubble tea, fried tortilla chips and salsa, panna cotta, Greek salad and a perfect egg omelet are all dependent on this neglected quality.

In a Reddit post shared to r/RelationshipAdvice, site user u/ThrowraFacebook12 shared how a single Facebook comment changed her married life. 

In a now-deleted post, X (formerly Twitter) user @Shekkkk__ revealed her theory about Will Smith’s children’s names. 

Blackpink headline the great oak stage at BST Hyde Park 2023

Ah, British Summer Time Hyde Park – my favourite festival ever. You get all the vibes of a real festival, but then you can go home at the end of the night!

It’s wild to think that Wordle, the New York Times’ iconic word game, will run out of five-letter material.

Rebel Wilson

It’s not just Sacha Baron Cohen whose ears will be burning when Rebel Wilson’s new memoir is released into the world.

A recently-published excerpt in In Touch sees Rebel writing about the singer Adele, who she claims “hates” her.

The Pitch Perfect star writes: “Some actresses would get offended if I called them plus-size in this book, so I have to be careful with what I say. This is why, I think, Adele hates me.

“There was a moment when she was bigger, and... Читать дальше...

A group of US government humanitarian experts on Tuesday privately warned fellow officials that the spread of hunger and malnutrition in Gaza amid the U.S.-backed Israeli offensive is “unprecedented in modern history,” famine is likely already occurring in parts of the Gaza Strip and the pace of hunger-releated deaths will “accelerate in the weeks ahead.”
