A grieving California mom says her severely depressed teen daughter was encouraged to leave her family, go into foster care, and begin taking cross-sex hormones before she developed unbearable pain and killed herself by laying down across the tracks in front of a train. Abigail Martinez, 53, alleged school staff at Arcadia High School—without her knowledge or consent—encouraged her daughter, Yaeli, to join an LGBTQ club that met at the school during lunchtime. She blames a school psychologist and other school staff, the Los Angeles County’s Department of Child and Family Services (DCFS), a transgender student and her mother, and the LGBTQ…

The restrictive policies in response to the COVID-19 pandemic have largely been a failure and we need accountability for those “destructive” measures, said Dr. Scott Atlas, former special adviser to then-President Donald Trump on the coronavirus pandemic. “We need accountability of the people who got what they wanted. They got implemented the policies they wanted.

Households could end up funding £2.4bn of payments to energy suppliers that took on the customers of rivals that collapsed as a result of sky-high gas prices, the energy watchdog has told MPs, as it warned a second wave of failures could be on the horizon. In evidence to the business, energy and industrial strategy (BEIS) select committee, Ofgem detailed the costs associated with the “supplier of last resort” system, under which customers of an energy supplier that collapses are transferred to a healthier utility company. Since the start of last year, 30 energy suppliers have gone bust, affecting nearly 4.5 million customers,…

The millionaire boss of P&O Ferries has insisted that the disgraced operator did not break British labour laws by sensationally sacking 800 seafarers without notice in one fell swoop via video call – because their ships were registered outside of the UK. Writing to Business Secretary Kwasi Kwarteng yesterday, Peter Hebblethwaite said the ‘very clear statutory obligation in the particular circumstances that applied was for each company to notify the competent authority of the state where the vessel is registered’ – in this case, Cyprus and the Bahamas. The chief executive, who fired 800 crew on the spot to replace them…

WASHINGTON is poised to abandon punitive tariffs on British steel today as ministers pin their hopes on striking a trade deal before the next election. International Trade Secretary Anne-Marie Trevelyan declared last night that there had ‘definitely’ been a change of approach from Joe Biden, who put talks on the backburner when he entered the White House. In an interview with the Daily Mail, she said that after having no appetite for a deal in January 2021, his administration had ‘leaned in’ to the idea. Mrs Trevelyan, who is on a two-day visit to Baltimore, believes formal negotiations on an agreement may begin by…

Shell is said to be reconsidering its decision to pull out of a proposed oil field off the coast of Scotland as Britain tries to shore up its energy security while Putin’s invasion of Ukraine sends fuel prices soaring and experts warned that the UK cost of living crisis ‘hasn’t arrived yet’ because inflation has higher to go. Work on the proposed Cambo oilfield development off the west coast of Shetland was paused in December after the energy company decided to withdraw from the project, concluding the economic case for investment was ‘not strong enough’. Shell made the decision last year to withdraw when the price…

The Raine Group, the US Bank handling the sale of Chelsea, could be in a position to take its preferred bidder to the government for approval by the end of this week if the process moves smoothly over the next 48 hours.
