Just seen the BBC's Political Editor, Chris Mason, talking again about the Budget saying it is a leftward tilt by Starmer's Govenment!

Sotres, Asturias: videos.trom.tf/w/7wo6HXbkj86AT…
Sotres is the highest village in the Picos de Europa National Park. A bit tricky to get here on the narrow winding road, but well worth the trip! Sotres is so beautiful that in 2024 it got an award from the princess of Asturias 😄 It's also famous for its blue cheese and is the starting point of some spectacular hiking trails in Picos de Europa.

Sotres - a wonderfully beautiful town in the mountains
Can you believe this is not Switzerland? We went for a day to this beautiful place just to see how it is. Sasha also found an abandoned villagge and some cute cows. Picos de Europa is now on fire, and it is such a shame because it is a wonderful natural place.

According to a report from WMUR9 ABC, Immigration and Customs Enforcement has arrested Bruna Caroline Ferreira — the mother of White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt’s nephew — for allegedly overstaying a visa by 26 years. Ferreira, originally from Brazil, was detained in Revere, MA and is now being held at the South Louisiana ICE Processing Center. Her attorney disputes DHS claims of a past arrest and says she entered the U.S. legally under DACA and is working toward a green card. Leavitt’s brother says his main concern is his young son’s well-being during this difficult situation.
