The truth about the President Trump popularity

    US voters remain deeply skeptical of political polling. But Trump’s approval rating so far has been incredibly stable Six hundred days after the 2016 election, many US voters remain deeply skeptical of, if not hostile to, political polling. Thousands march against Trump and family separations policy The national polls in 2016 were actually fairly accurate: Hillary Clinton was supposed to win the popular vote by about three points and she ended up winning by two. But election models portraying Clinton as a sure thing left her supporters feeling betrayed when, thanks to the electoral college, the presidency fell to Donald Trump. For those voters today, mistrust of surveys can take on an almost spiritual vehemence. Yet while Americans who feel that Trump is harmin...

NHS is preparing to stockpile medicine in case of a no deal Brexit

    The NHS is preparing to stockpile medicines and equipment to ensure hospitals can function after a no deal Brexit, the health service chief Simon Stevens admitted today. Simon Stevens said there was immediate planning around the Department for Health and in hospitals about securing medical supply under different scenarios. The health service chief executive said making sure there was enough medicine was top of the list of contingency planning. Mr Stevens said plans would be implemented once the state of the deal crystallised in the autumn. It emerged last month there are secret plans in Whitehall for what happens if no contingencies are made for a sudden no deal Brexit. The plans suggest that with no replacement for EU medical agencies, hospitals could run out of...

Sajid Javid could be next party leader where Tory’s chiece as activists

    Sajid Javid, the home secretary, is the popular choice of Tory activists to be the party’s next leader, a survey revealed on Saturday. The MP for Bromsgrove came top of in the monthly poll by the ConservativeHome website with the backing of 22% of the 1,107 votes cast. He replaces Jacob Rees-Mogg who last month topped the poll for the fifth time in succession having been either at the top, or second choice to “other”, since the 2017 general election. Rees-Mogg is now the fourth most popular choice, with Michael Gove, the environment secretary, lying second and other third. The shift in opinion has been dramatic. Three months ago Javid was polling just 2%. In the wake of his appointment as home secretary, he took 10% of the vote, coming third. Last month, that rose...

Brexit deal will be signed with the UK by October

    EU negotiators have abandoned all hope that a Brexit deal will be signed with the UK at October’s European Council summit. Brussels officials said a complete standstill in talks with Britain means securing settlements on major outstanding issues in the remaining three-and-a-half months is fanciful. They point to the political logjam in Theresa May’s government as the obstacle blocking negotiations, piling pressure on the prime minister to break the deadlock this week. She is set to meet her full cabinet on Friday at Chequers for a meeting that may go late into the night, in a bid to finally thrash out the government’s approach to post-Brexit relations with the EU. The EU officials were speaking after last week’s European Council summit which saw the bloc focus on ...
