Well said Grok
@LeeEdwards1982 @SkyNews @DominicWaghorn @EddieEdwards Sky News reports on Trump's policy impacts—like aid cuts in Kenya and security shifts in Finland—based on facts, not an anti-Trump agenda. Rated least biased by trackers like Ad Fontes, their critical tone reflects real negative effects, not media spin.

NEW: PM announces he is abolishing NHS England. Says it’s part of plans to cut bureaucracy across the state. Only this week Guardian reported govt it was slashing 6,500 jobs from NHS England in a restructuring effort to save money. https://t.co/Vn21qe7rHn

Thanks Shaun. We took Harriet for her first + last walk in her tiny white coffin. Our hearts shattered into pieces but also bursting with pride that she was our daughter. Years later to read in an email she was triple bagged destroyed every part of us. People should be in jail
💔 NEW: A hospital at the centre of the largest NHS maternity scandal let a baby's body decompose so badly it had to be 'triple bagged' for the funeral - midwives then "mocked" the dad, replaying a phone call he'd made months b4 at a "leadership away day"

Under Trump the US has switched sides to join Russia, Belarus and North Korea in a UN vote calling for Russia to withdraw from Ukraine. Hard to believe we are writing/reading this.
The United States just voted alongside Russia against a Ukrainian amendment in the United Nations General Assembly, which called for the withdrawal of Russian troops from Ukraine. The United States is now actively supporting Russia's occupation of Ukrainian territory.

Can you help? Mateo is eight. In November his much worshipped big sister Liz died age 17 from a rare and aggressive sarcoma called Desmoplastic Small Round Cell Tumour. It’s a cancer that is so destructive only 15% of those diagnosed live five years. Liz lived just ten months.

This feels like it sums up the situation in A&E quite succinctly. The number of patients waiting under 4 hours has stayed roughly the same since 2010 but the increase in demand is such that the number of people waiting more than 4 hours has increased 8-fold over that same period.

Financial abuse of the elderly is a topic we don’t hear much about, but is at ‘epidemic’ levels according to Hourglass - a charity specialising in preventing it. Hearing the Percival family’s story was shocking, but I’m sure it’s one of many. If you have a similar story please
Anita was a seemingly trustworthy nurse - who, just days after meeting Ian Percival moved into one of his properties to help look after his wife, Margaret. But over time, his family became increasingly concerned about the influence she had over him https://t.co/N1f3BVtUdc

Disappointing when industry colleagues ghost the achievements of others. Well done to the @BBCAfrica team but @YousraElbagir and @skynews Africa bureau were in Goma a week ago, and they brought us important eyewitness testimony from inside the city as M23 took over.
A team of journalists from BBC Africa has gained first access to Goma after M23 rebels seized the city last week. Businesses in Goma, a Congolese city near the Rwandan border, have begun to reopen, but hospitals remain overwhelmed.

The tragedy is we’ll never know the true cost of cyclone Chido. Almost all of the victims were undocumented migrants. A senior Gendarme told us many were quickly buried. Officials knew nothing of their existence or their deaths.
Some photographs from a challenging week telling the heartbreaking story of those who died and survived Cyclone Chido in Mayotte with @ashishskynews and @Jsestili
