Why this hasn’t become a serious political issue in India yet is beyond me. Five years or more of lost life expectancy.
Millions across northern India have spent weeks living under a toxic blanket of smog. The air is choked with particulates from the seasonal burning of rice-paddy stubble on nearby farms, mixed with industrial and vehicular emissions. See more photos:

Starmer’s anti-asylum policies show how utterly clueless he is about the right-wing media’s role in politics.
He’s trying to fix a “problem” contrived by Farage, GB News and The Telegraph. He’ll never win, because ultimately he’s fighting a ghost – he’s fighting something that doesn’t really exist
