Who benefits if NHS drug prices soar? Donald Trump and big pharma. Just one more way he’s menacing Britain | Polly Toynbee

I've written to Keir Starmer, Kemi Badenoch and Nigel Farage, urging them to join me in condemning Elon Musk's dangerous remarks inciting violence yesterday.
As leaders, we must stand together and make clear Musk will face serious consequences for these actions.

NYC friends: this poor dog was almost on his freedom ride out of the pound when his foster didn't show up on him. He's now in danger of being put down. Do you have space in your home and heart to adopt him? ❤️
Also, lots of animals at this NYC shelter who need a home.

Trump once again turns the US into a pariah state by pulling our nation from the Paris climate accord. He does this while Southern California is burning and it is snowing in Florida. Climate change is here now and will only get worse. www.nytimes.com/2025/01/23/c...
