200万人缺失所需的社会护理

数据显示，由于深陷危机的社会护理系统，200万名老年人不得不生活在缺乏所需帮助的状态中。

许多人在进食、穿衣、洗澡和如厕等日常活动中感到吃力。

在过去三年中，具有“未满足需求”的65岁以上人数增加了近 400,000 人。

Age UK 的这项审查是在 Andy Burnham 准备于今日公布解决该问题之计划之际出台的。活动人士

Anya 的舞蹈之乐

作者：FRANCES MILLAR

ANYA Taylor-Joy 表示，她有两个能完美概括她自我的爱好——芭蕾舞和锐舞音乐（rave music）。

这位《沙丘》影星热爱这两者的舞蹈，并补充道：“老实说，这相当好地展现了我的性格分面。芭蕾舞课和深沉、黑暗的 techno 音乐。”

在今年她的 30 岁生日时，她将两者结合在了一起，仅提前两天就在洛杉矶筹办了一场派对。

背景音乐是来自地下世界的沉重 techno，而着装要求则是“奥林匹斯山”风格。

在伦敦长大的 Anya 告诉《Elle UK》：“一个周三，在洛杉矶，我最喜欢的 200 个人聚集在一个地方。我的朋友们 DJ 了一个相当激烈的 techno 现场，我意识到这并非每个人的口味，但他们都融入其中了。”

“我想让它看起来有点邪典感。每个人都穿着白色的长裙或西装，戴着花冠。”

主演今年晚些时候上映的《沙丘》第三部的 Anya，目前正在出演 Apple TV+ 的惊悚剧《Lucky》。

在银幕之外，她在 2022 年嫁给 32 岁的美国音乐家 Malcolm McRae 后，感到非常幸运。

她说：“我不想听起来很自鸣得意，但我非常爱他。”

“能有一个最好的朋友与你共度人生——这给了我一种我从未真正敢于梦想的安全感。”

压力倍增

Jade Belgrove、 Kemi Badenoch 和 Kieran Mullan 昨日

Badenoch：租赁监狱空间，而非释放最恶劣的罪犯

作者：MICHAEL KNOWLES 内政事务编辑

Kemi Badenoch 表示，商店窃贼和危险驾驶者应该在杀手、儿童色情狂和强奸犯之前获准出狱。

这位保守党领导人敦促首相考虑在其他国家租赁监狱空间，以缓解过度拥挤的危机。

与此同时，强奸案受害者讲述了工党的量刑改革（在首相 Andy Burnham 任内已暂停）将如何窃取他们的“正义”并制造一种新的恐惧感。

诱拐团伙幸存者 Sarah Wilson 表示：“儿童色情狂永远无法被改造。我们需要将所有这些危险罪犯排除在外。”

“相比于一个可能会强奸另一个孩子的人，我宁愿街道上走的是个小偷。”

焦虑

根据工党的计划，杀人犯和强奸犯将被提前释放，且有 43,000 名罪犯将完全避免入狱。许多囚犯在仅服刑三分之一的时间后就将获释。

在暂停之前，第一批人员预计将于 9 月 2 日被释放，首先是被判处 18 个月以下刑期的罪犯。随后，释放人数将逐月增加。被判处 12 年以上监禁的罪犯——其中一些是该国最危险的罪犯——将于明年 6 月开始获释。

曾多次被父亲强奸的卡罗尔·希金斯（Carol Higgins）表示：“他不再需要在监狱中服刑 50% 的刑期，而只需服刑 33%。他被减刑的每一分钟，都将增加我恐惧和焦虑的每一分钟。”

“缩短刑期是在偷走我的正义。”巴德诺克（Badenoch）夫人昨日与儿童强奸幸存者杰德·贝尔格罗夫（Jade Belgrove）和影子司法大臣基兰·穆兰（Kieran Mullan）共同发表讲话，呼吁建设更多监狱。她表示，政府应当重启前保守党政府租赁海外监狱名额的计划，以避免不得不释放暴力犯罪者。她还呼吁将外国罪犯遣返回其原籍国监狱。

贝尔格罗夫女士是昨日向唐宁街递交请愿书的幸存者之一，该请愿书由超过 100,000 人签署，要求伯纳姆（Burnham）先生“紧急重新思考”提前释放计划。

她说：“我们无法日复一日地面对这种创伤。”

玛丽·斯通（Marie Stone）在儿童时期被哈里·米亚（Harry Miah）性侵，如果米亚 18 年的刑期被减至 6 年，他将按期获释。她说：“这正在摧毁我们。”

司法部表示：“我们正在采取一切措施来保护公众并打击犯罪。我们已暂停原定于 9 月开始的变更，以进行紧急审查，确保在不耗尽监狱空间的情况下，使这项政策对受害者而言是正确的。”

Burnham 社会护理

受益于激进的社会护理改革，英国经济也将然如此。”他声称，现在是自第二次世界大战以来将社会护理提升至与 NHS（国家医疗服务体系）同等地位的最佳机会，旨在创建一项“世界领先的服务，以确保老年人能尽可能长时间地在自己家中尊严地生活”。

“目前医院的病房里充满了不快乐的老年人，他们在昂贵的医院病床上迅速恶化，而实际上他们并不需要强化医疗干预；如果能获得正确的社会护理支持，他们可以在熟悉的家庭环境中茁壮成长。”

Burnham 先生将利用他访问北伦敦一家护理院的机会，承诺快速推进对他所描述为“崩溃”的护理体系的改革。

他将表示，由 Casey 男爵夫人领导的一项审查将被加速，以便在十年结束前开始实施变革。

但首相可能会在如何筹措预计 £18.5billion 的成本方面避而不谈。

拥有修复……的“最佳机会”，所以他绝不能“在关键时刻退缩！”

该体系属于“最不慷慨”之列

英格兰的成人社会护理如何运作？ 与 NHS 的护理不同，社会护理在就诊时并非免费，高昂的成本有时意味着人们被迫卖掉自己的房子来支付所需费用。

储蓄价值超过 £23,250 的人员没有资格获得当地议会提供的护理成本资助。

智库 Nuffield Trust 最近的分析发现，英格兰是少数几个获取任何公共护理资金受限于个人财产多少的体系之一。

其他地区是如何运作的？

根据纳菲尔德信托基金会（Nuffield Trust）的说法，英格兰在英国及其他地区中拥有最不慷慨的成年人社会护理系统之一。

该组织对包括英国另外三个国家在内的 11 个其他国家或地区的分析发现，英格兰“在群体中脱颖而出，因为人们必须通过财务测试才能被考虑获得任何政府资助的支持”。

丹麦拥有最慷慨的系统，任何 65 岁以上被评估为需要护理的人都可以免费获得护理——除了养老院的住宿费用——而无需考虑其财务状况。

英格兰有多少人在使用社会护理系统？

根据健康慈善机构金座基金会（King's Fund）的分析，在截至 2025, 3 月的年度中，有 889,000 人接受了公共资助的长期护理。其中包括 576,000 名 65 岁以上人士和 313,000 名 18-64 岁人士。

金座基金会表示，在 2024-25 年度，地方当局在工作年龄成年人长期支持（£11.5billion）和老年人（£12）方面的资金支出比例相似。

那些等待护理的人怎么处理？

截至今年 3 月底，有 408,985 人正在等待对其护理和支持需求进行评估，或等待直接付款启动，或等待对其护理计划进行审查。

根据金座基金会的分析，在截至 2025 年 3 月的年度中，英格兰共有 200 万次新的成年人社会护理支持请求。

英格兰成年人社会护理部门的人员配备情况如何？

成年人社会护理领域的职位空缺水平仍然大约是更广泛经济领域的三倍。

护理技能（Skills for Care）慈善机构在 6 月发布的一份报告称，在任何给定日期大约有 96,000 个职位空缺。根据 2021 年的人口普查，英格兰和威尔士全国估计有 500 万名无偿护理者。

改革可能会花费多少钱？

健康基金会（Health Foundation）智库估计，如果国家承担目前英格兰所有接受成年人社会护理服务人员的费用，到 2035 年，一套 NHS 风格的社会护理系统每年将在现有成本基础上额外花费 £18.5bn。

10% 死亡税将耗资 £74, 但唐宁街10号“排除”了这一抢劫行为

作者：KATIE HARRIS

根据 Reform UK 的分析，Andy Burnham 可能实施的“死亡税”将导致平均每位房主面临 £74,000 的账单。

人们担心首相可能会对所有遗产征收 10% 的税款，以支付社会护理改革的费用，尽管这件事在昨晚似乎已被排除。

分析称，此举将使英格兰和威尔士平均每位无抵押贷款的房主损失 £74,737，而对于 Mr Burnham 的 Makerfield 選區的人来说，该数字将降至 £50,669。

Reform 的 Robert Jenrick 表示：“作为对他当选的感谢，Burnham 正在考虑征收一项普遍的死亡税，这一举动将使他的平均选民在为失去挚爱而悲伤时损失 £50,000。他没有权力抢劫人们珍贵的储蓄。”

选民们已经四次拒绝了死亡税。

Mr Jenrick 补充道：“Reform UK 要求 Burnham 在摧毁数百万人的继承财产之前重新考虑。”

但政府昨日坚称，没有计划重启 Burnham 在 2010. 年曾建议的“死亡税”。一名发言人表示：“没有此项计划。”

“我们的重点是努力寻找共识，并实施修复社会护理所需的改革——而不是强加某种特定的解决方案或税收。”

自 1997 年以来，已有 22 次改革该行业的尝试，但没有一次“修复了基础”。

她继续说道：“我们一直陷入同样的循环：危机、改革承诺、另一次审查，然后撤退，而需要护理的人及其家属则承受了 brunt。”

“修复成人社会护理不仅仅是钱的问题。人们已经通过市政税、对 NHS 的压力而为失败买单，”

他们的储蓄、放弃工作以及被迫出售房屋。

Age UK 强调了危机的规模，该慈善机构警告说，人们在处理日常任务时的困难增加了跌倒、严重受伤或更糟的风险。

其对英格兰 11 million 名 65 岁以上人群的审查发现，近两百万人有未满足的需求：1.4 million 人在穿衣方面有困难，930,000 人在洗澡方面有困难，730,000 人发现上下床困难，490,000 人在没有帮助的情况下无法使用厕所。此外，430,000 人在房间内行走有困难，而 230,000 人在进食方面有困难。

Age UK 慈善机构主管 Caroline Abrahams 表示，改革社会护理将使人们专注于“目标”而非挑战。

她补充道：“知道如果我们随着年龄增长而产生护理需求和残疾，我们不会被遗弃而独自挣扎——就像我们中近两百万人那样。一个改革后的系统将确保我们能获得一些帮助，并且希望它能与我们通常需要的医疗护理妥善衔接。”

她说，人们将“都不得不自掏腰包……极有可能是在提前支付，或者在去世后通过遗产捐献，而不是面对一张巨额账单”。Mr Burnham 本周表示，他认为如果社会护理不进行改革，“NHS 将崩溃”。他动情地谈到了这个问题，说他的父亲因为患有阿尔茨海默症而被送到了护理院。

成人社会护理提供国家支持，以帮助人们更独立地生活，包括在家中生活。

在英格兰和北爱尔兰，储蓄超过 £23,250 的人没有资格获得其所在议会提供的护理费用帮助。

警方调查波兰斯基发布关于法拉奇被处决的帖子

作者：STEPH SPYRO 政治副编辑

扎克·波兰斯基（ZACK Polanski）未能就分享一篇关于奈杰尔·法拉奇（Nigel Farage）的“病态”且“极不恰当”的帖子而道歉，该帖子目前正由警方调查。

绿党表示，波兰斯基先生“谴责”这张照片，照片中一名男子穿着一件黑色T恤，上面写着“我们只是在为奈杰尔制定计划”，并配有一幅断头台的图像。

据其政党称，波兰斯基先生承认被标记在包含 20 张图片的帖子中，“当时没有意识到其中包含比他所看到的更多内容”。

在英国改革党（Reform UK）联系警员后，警方正在对该事件进行调查。

在BBC Radio 4的《Today》节目中，改革党的罗伯特·詹里克（Robert Jenrick）表示：“我认为这表明（波兰斯基先生）是不适合领导一个国家政党的人。”

这位国会议员补充道：“我认为这是扎克·波兰斯基发布的一篇极不恰当的，事实上是病态的Instagram帖子。”

威胁

“正因如此，改革党将其举报给了警方。你必须看这里的背景。”

“在（据称）安·维德科姆（Ann Widdecombe）被谋杀后仅短时间内，我们的同事奈杰尔·法拉奇是一位面临过数百次威胁的政治家，其中一些威胁具有高度可信度。”

“目前有一名男子因威胁杀害他而被监禁。我们被告知，警方最近又逮捕了另一名威胁杀害他的男子。国家政党的领导人分享此类帖子是完全不恰当的，因为这可以说是在煽动针对他人的暴力。”

工作与养老金大臣帕特·麦克法登（Pat McFadden）警告说，政治家在社交媒体上分享内容时应当“小心”。他还指出，距离前《快报》专栏作家维德科姆女士（一位前保守党部长，后任改革党发言人）“令人震惊”的死亡仅过去了几周。麦克法登先生说：“我们都

铭记最近发生的事情——一起最令人震惊的（据称）前政治家谋杀案——这使得所有政治家在发布 [及] 分享内容时有责任保持谨慎。”

他继续说道：“这已经不是扎克·波兰斯基第一次这样做了。” 5月，他曾就分享一篇批评警方对4月戈尔德斯格林（Golders Green）砍杀事件反应的帖子而道歉，称其是“匆忙”之举。在昨天于伦敦举行的新闻发布会上，保守党党魁凯米·巴登诺克（Kemi Badenoch）表示，波兰斯基先生和法拉奇先生“花太多时间在Twitter和Instagram上，而没有花足够的时间与面临真实问题的真实人们交谈”。

她随后补充道：“我是唯一一个花时间讨论真实问题的人。”

绿党的一位发言人表示：“这件T-shirt显然品味低劣，尤其是在公众人物的安全担忧加剧、且其本人经历过多次威胁的情况下。他和绿党呼吁所有参与公共讨论的人表现出善意，不要鼓励更多的分裂。”

据了解，波兰斯基先生在私下里也没有向法拉奇先生道歉。

柏林货车袭击者忠于伊斯兰国

作者：CIARAN MCGRATH

调查人员已地恢复一段手机视频，显示柏林骄傲节货车袭击嫌疑人在周六的暴行发生前数小时宣誓效忠伊斯兰国。

据信，21 岁的 Abdul Ballout 是这起惨剧的幕后黑手，此次袭击导致一名 65 岁的波兰女性死亡，另有 29 人受伤。

在撞上一棵树后，他继续使用刀具进行攻击，随后逃离。

柏林警方在次日晚上将这名圣战分子追踪到一片配给地，在他持刀冲向警员时将其击毙。

Ballout 在 2024 年发布过伊斯兰国宣传资料，2025 年试图通过黎巴嫩前往叙利亚，在黎巴嫩监狱服刑三个月，并于同年 11 月返回德国。

2026 年 5 月，柏林一家法院判处这名出生于德国的黎巴嫩裔公民 22 个月监禁，罪名是准备实施严重的暴力行为。

但在上诉期间，他仍处于自由状态。

持刀闹事寻求庇护者入狱

作者：KIM PILLING

一名携带锤子、小斧头、七英寸厨刀和半升汽油前往学校的失败庇护申请者被判处两年监禁。

据法庭审理，南苏丹国民 Both Doak Deng，21 岁，其三次庇护申请均被拒绝，他希望通过“制造事端引起关注”来助力其诉求。

去年 8 月 6 日，他在大曼彻斯特郡 Heywood 的 Edgar Wood 学院被工作人员对峙后被捕。

就在前一天，有人看到他在 Rochdale 的 Holy Family RC and CE 学院“行为异常”。

辩护律师 Sara Haque 告诉曼彻斯特 Minshull Street 刑事法院：“他想要关注……他唯一的愿望就是工作并养家。”

Deng 承认了一系列罪名。法官 Bernadette Baxter 在判决他入狱时表示，“内政部应该采取一些措施，而不是无所作为，来处理你在英国的身份”。

“在有人被杀之前禁掉跨性别活动分子”

一名政府前顾问表示，一个呼吁活动分子购买锤子以针对国会议员的跨性别直接行动团体，应在发生人员死亡前被禁。

Bash Back 为追随者制作了一份指南，列举了行动的“良好目标”示例，包括“恐跨国会议员的办公室”和“恐跨公共知识分子的财产”。

该指南补充道：“确保你的目标能被反复打击，直到他们停止其活动。”

包括一件印有步枪的 T 恤和帽子。尽管该团体点名攻击包括被其称为“恐跨、种族主义欺凌者”的首相 Andy Burnham 在内的部长们，但该团体表示：“我们并不纵容对任何人类造成身体伤害。”

此时，政治人物的安保问题正受到审查。一位了解 Bash Back 战术的消息人士表示：“他们以为自己是真正的 IRA 或之类的东西。这是一场等待发生的灾难。在有人受到严重伤害之前，他们应该被禁。他们是一个恐怖组织。简直疯了。”

政府前政治暴力顾问 Walney 勋爵将 Bash Back 比作被禁的 Palestinian Action。

他表示：“Bash Back 使用的语言和意象清晰且蓄意地使女性面临以跨性别权利之名被暴力袭击的危险——内政大臣应在有人被杀之前禁掉该团体。”

公寓价值减半引发儿童愤怒

《每日快报》本月发起了“停止退休公寓陷阱”活动，旨在揭露让丧亲家庭陷入无法出售的退休公寓且面临飙升的服务费的丑闻。我们正在与受此危机影响的人交谈，并希望听到您的故事。如果您或您的家人陷入了退休公寓陷阱，请联系 laura.zilincanova@reachplc.com

独家报道

作者：LAURA ZILINCANOVA

双胞胎 Jackie Hughes 和 Martyn Woods 在经历了尝试出售已故母亲住所的痛苦过程后，警告人们不要购买退休公寓。

这对 68 岁的兄妹面临了三年的每周 £191 服务费账单和无数失眠之夜，直到该公寓在 4 月以 £110,000 成交。他们的母亲 Barbara 在 2019 年支付了 £145,000。

在扣除所有相关费用后，该家庭最终到手 £70,000。

Jackie 表示：“我只是庆幸妈妈不知道她去世后发生了什么，因为她会心碎的。”

Barbara 在职期间作为护理助理和理发师，与开卡车的丈夫 Ralph 一起辛勤工作，为了给孩子们提供良好的生活。

在 10 多年时间里，她独自住在北威尔士的一栋独立平房中。

但在 2019 年，在髋部骨折且身体日益衰弱后，她卖掉了房产，搬到了切斯特的一套退休公寓里。

快报十字军行动

停止退休公寓陷阱

这套位于二楼的一居室公寓位于 Kingswood 的一个综合体中，由社会住房房东 Your Housing Group (YHG) 运营，每周服务费为 £115。

Barbara 在 2023, 年 4 月去世，享年 92 岁，她在一次跌倒后健康状况恶化并患上了严重的血管性痴呆症。

几周后，YHG 将服务费（涵盖公共区域的供暖和照明等费用）提高了 66%，涨至 £191。这笔费用仍需由家属支付。

退休助产士 Jackie 表示：“我心沉了下去。我想我妈妈一定会讨厌那样的。而且她能负担得起吗？”

这种情况让她和退休的壳牌公司运营主管 Martyn 陷入了深深的困扰，他们不断思考一个问题：“我们到底该怎么把这套公寓卖掉？”

服务费是寻找买家的最大障碍，也让这个家庭付出了沉重的代价。

他们还面临着市政税、律师费和房产中介费的账单——此外还有开发项目的偿债基金（sinking fund）缴款，这是一个用于支付重大且低频建筑维修的专用储蓄金。

Jackie 回忆道：“那太可怕了。”

“我只是感到宽慰，妈妈在去世后不知道发生了什么”

“我觉得自己三年没睡过好觉”。在向 YHG 多次投诉这些挑战后，该集团的回应是发送了一封写给 Barbara 的信，而 Barbara 已经去世数月。住房监察员认定 YHG 存在过错，并命令其支付 £75 的赔偿金。

公寓的销售于 4 月 21 日完成，正好在 Barbara 去世三周年之际。Jackie 说：“直到合同交换并完成交易，我才终于松了一口气。”这对双胞胎认为，拥有更多储蓄的老年人仍应拥有租赁的选择。

受到惩罚

Jackie 表示：“我的父母为了给我们更好的生活以及为他们的未来攒钱，工作得非常辛苦。但如果你这么做，似乎反而会受到惩罚。”在听到许多家庭被困在无法出售的房产中后，《快报》(Express) 正在发起一项活动，争取通过立法来解决年龄限制并降低退休社区的费用。

YHG 针对 66% 的服务费上涨表示：“在更广泛的能源市场出现前所未有的上涨，且恰逢一项长期能源合同到期后，我们经历了公用事业成本的显著增加。任何随后的——”

评论

DENNIS REED

Silver Voices 主管

祝贺《快报》发起“停止退休公寓陷阱”运动，揭露这一丑闻。

由于缺乏竞争，开发商可以随心所欲地收费，并采取限制性措施阻碍转售。

前政府的老年人住房工作组确认，每年必须建设高达 50,000 套符合年龄要求的住房才能满足需求。

但实际上每年仅建设约 7,000 套。尽管工党将住房列为优先事项但进展缓慢，他们并未尝试弥补这一差距。

目前还没有采取任何措施来阻止居民和家庭被服务费所绑架，或被跨国私人开发商对转售的低优先级对待所要挟。

改革

住房大臣安吉拉·雷纳（Angela Rayner）需要通过强力手段让他们摆脱自满。

一项改革方案可能是：如果一套公寓在设定的一段时间内（例如一年）未售出，开发商应有义务按市场价将其回购。

这将激励公司支持家庭，但作为保障措施，也会强迫他们为了重新销售或出租而翻新房产。

在附近建立新地块的同时，一些综合建筑群可能会因为存在空置公寓而被任其恶化，导致转售吸引力下降。

最好的开发商已经取消了退出费并遏制了服务费，但这需要在全行业范围内推广。

安吉拉·雷纳必须对这场运动做出回应，因为市场信心正在流失。

在芭芭拉（Barbara）去世后几周内，公寓服务费上涨了 66%

服务费的频繁增加反映了在运行和维护方案过程中产生的合法成本增加，且只有租赁条款下可回收的成本才转嫁给居民。文中补充道：“转售时间受整体市场状况和买家需求的影响。虽然整个行业都充分认识到了这些挑战，但 Your Housing Group 仍致力于公平对待居民和家庭。”

母亲与男友谋杀两岁女孩

作者：汤姆·威尔金逊（TOM WILKINSON）

一名母亲及其男友被判定谋杀其两岁女儿，该女孩在遭受毁灭性头部创伤前曾遭到性虐待。

伊莎贝尔·威尔什（Isabelle Welsh）在去年 9 月在家中昏迷前的几周内，经历了 21 处骨折。

26 岁的亚历山德拉·沃克（Alexandra Walker）和 22 岁的哈里森·辛普森（Harrison Simpson）被陪审团判定谋杀该女孩及虐待儿童罪名成立，而辛普森还被判定对该幼儿实施性骚扰。

伊莎贝尔的父亲在两人明日被判刑前，于昨日要求对两人处以终身监禁。

在该幼儿濒死时，她的母亲在厨房抽烟，尽管在谷歌搜索了“为什么我的幼儿会流血”，但仍推迟拨打 999。

伤痕

相反，她要求她的继父来到她位于蒂赛德（Teesside）索纳比（Thornaby）的家中，并且是在他的指示下，她才最终通知了急救服务部门。

急救人员在 一分钟内抵达，发现小女孩全身布满伤痕，包括头部、颈部、腹部、背部和私密部位。她的尿布里有血，脸上带有呕吐物。

当医护人员徒劳地努力抢救时，伊莎贝尔（Isabelle）已经停止呼吸，触感冰冷，她于次日在医院去世。尸检

辛普森（Simpson）和沃克（Walker）将于明天因谋杀两岁大的伊莎贝尔而被判刑

显示她的颅骨骨折，大脑受损，且遭到了性侵犯。

蒂赛德刑事法院的陪审团听证得知，专家表示伊莎贝尔曾被摇晃，且头部撞击到了墙壁或地板。

法院此前听证，沃克在伊莎贝尔被谋杀前几个月才在 Facebook Dating 上结识辛普森。

她怀疑他可能是个恋童癖，并认为他更喜欢同时见到她和伊莎贝尔，而不是单独与女友相处，这很“奇怪”。

她的担忧之深，甚至检查了他是否在性犯罪者登记册上，但她依然与他在一起。

就在她崩溃前 11 天，伊莎贝尔因腿部骨折被送往全科医生处，随后被送往医院。尽管

部分工作人员心存顾虑，但小女孩还是被允许出院交给她的母亲；而当医护人员对孩子身上发生的事情提出质疑时，这位母亲对他们表现出了攻击性。

沃克解释说，伊莎贝尔的腿肯定是在被卡在婴儿床里时受伤的。

同样在这次事件中，尽管幼儿感到疼痛且行走困难，沃克在为伊莎贝尔寻求医疗帮助前等待了两周。

负责起诉的理查德·赖特（Richard Wright）大律师告诉法庭：“数周以来，这个孩子一直遭受暴力袭击，而那次可怕的头部受伤导致她的死亡，仅仅是她所遭受的这一系列暴力行为的终点。”

去年六月在辛普森进入她的生活之前拍摄的视频显示，小女孩看起来很健康，快乐地玩耍并微笑。沃克曾遭受家庭暴力，她在家里安装了两个摄像头，其中一个俯瞰房后。

摄像头显示，母亲沃克酗酒，有时一次性喝掉多达 10 罐 Stella Artois 啤酒；而男友辛普森习惯性吸食大麻，两人有时还贩卖大麻。

闭路电视录像还证明，伊莎贝尔在由辛普森单独照顾期间腿部骨折。

在一次拜访沃克和伊莎贝尔时，担忧的沃克母亲在伊莎贝尔腿部骨折后表示，“看起来她正在被虐待”。

保护

在沃克前往医院就诊、由辛普森照看两岁大的伊莎贝尔期间，辛普森在未经沃克允许的情况下给伊莎贝尔洗澡。

检察官赖特先生表示，沃克没有保护她的女儿。

他补充道：“相反，她在最需要采取行动的时候，迟缓、转移话题，且未能采取行动。”

在法院外，伊莎贝尔的父亲乔什·威尔士（Josh Welsh）表示，他女儿的凶手应当被判处终身监禁。

他补充道：“我的小女孩……我的整个生活都被粉碎了，我整个家庭也是。”

“我们为伊莎贝尔赢得了正义，这对我有至关重要的意义。”

杀人犯詹姆斯·德斯伯勒（James Desborough）

电视连续杀手迷被判两起谋杀罪名成立

作者：ROD MINCHIN

一名电视连续杀手剧《Dexter》的粉丝被判定谋杀两名无家可归的男子，并隐藏其被肢解的尸体。

James Desborough 在等待审判期间还杀死了他的狱友；去年，他将 Claudio Aquilino（57 岁）和 Daniel Coleman（43 岁）的遗骸丢弃在康沃尔郡的森林中。

这名 40 岁的前建筑工人此前因在埃克塞特监狱勒死 Steven Kempster 而被判终身监禁，目前正在服刑。

昨天，当温彻斯特刑事法院的陪审团做出一致的有罪裁决时，Desborough 没有任何情绪表现。

庭审获悉，Aquilino 先生和 Coleman 先生曾与 Desborough 共同居住在一家旅舍，且最后一次被看到时是在他身边。在杀死他们后，他将他们的钱用于购买毒品和酒精。

捕食者

警方在圣奥斯特尔附近 Sticker Woods 的一条小溪中发现了来自 Aquilino 先生身体的 1,900 片烧焦的骨骼碎片，Desborough 当时居住在那里的一个木屋中。

Coleman 先生身体的部分组织在附近的一个浅坟中被发现。

Desborough 告诉一名在森林中寻找 Coleman 先生尸体的法医生物学家，他“特别喜欢《Dexter》中的肢解场景”。

警方在木屋中发现了几张手写便条，其中一张写道：“我知道我是一个杀手，并准备好处决任何捕食者。”

Desborough 否认了两起谋杀案。

这名单之父向陪审团声称，这些人在他的土地上死亡是一系列“不幸的情况”。

他此前承认阻碍了对其尸体的合法掩埋，声称他发现 Aquilino 先生悬挂在树上——随后一个月后在小溪中发现了 Coleman 先生的尸体。

Desborough 将于今天被宣判。

藏匿夭折幼儿的殡葬业者面对母亲

Sunny 的母亲 Jasmine

一名死产婴儿的母亲在得知孩子尸体被发现于一家殡仪馆地板上的纸袋中时，在面对该业者时抽泣道：“我把生命中最珍贵的人托付给了你。”

Jasmine Beverley 正在向 Legacy Independent Funeral Directors 的所有者 Robert Bush 宣读受害者影响陈述书。Bush 已承认 67 项罪名，其中包括 30 项阻碍合法且体面掩埋的指控。

作者：KATIE DICKINSON

在他位于赫尔的办公场所发现了三十一副尸体，而在此之前他告诉家属尸体已被火化。

在市刑事法院的被告席上，当 Beverley 女士说：“我的儿子 Sunny 在出生时就睡去了，但在他进入这个世界之前他就被爱着，而且在我余生的每一天里，他都将被爱着”时，他没有表现出任何情绪。

“当父母失去孩子时，他们唯一的希望就是孩子能得到尊严、关怀和尊重。”法庭获悉，她和伴侣于 2022 年 6 月 16 日前往赫尔的 Legacy 殡仪馆探望 Sunny，并给他在那里留了一张家庭照片、一条蓝色羊羔绒毯和鲜花。

第二天，该殡仪馆的礼拜堂举行了一场小型仪式。

当他们返回时，Bush 给他们一个蓝色的小棺材，称 Sunny 的骨灰在里面。但几乎两年后，他的尸体被警方回收。Bush 将在五天的受害者陈述结束后被宣判。昨天——第二天——法庭还听取了 Jim Porter（80 岁）家属的陈述，其尸体被发现时手腕和脚踝上仍戴着医院的身份识别带。

他的女儿 Tina Thames 表示，她当时认为他的棺材看起来不够大。自从得知真相后，她一直被“尸体堆积起来……像奥斯威辛集中营一样”的噩梦所困扰。

Terry White（73 岁）的女儿 Angela Scottow 同样回收了父亲的尸体，她表示：“Robert Bush 把爸爸当成了一块肉。”

Naga离职，人们希望《早安节目》能够“重启”

在主持人Naga Munchetty宣布辞职后，BBC《早安节目》（Breakfast）的内部人士希望这部陷入困境的节目能够迎来一次“重启”。

这位 51 岁的主持人将离职去主持BBC Radio 5 Live的早间节目。该广播公司的一位消息人士表示：“对Naga来说，这份新工作似乎是对所有人最好的结果。《早安节目》内部的情况并不愉快。”

他们补充道：“无论你怎么看，主持BBC《早安节目》都比在Five Live工作是一项大得多的任务。”

作者：MARK JEFFERIES

第二位消息人士补充道：“在经历了所有动荡之后，很明显需要一次重启。”

此次变动还发生在与BBC《早安节目》编辑Richard Frediani发生分歧之后，据报道Naga曾对他行为提出担忧。他后来被清除欺凌指控。

一项针对Naga的独立调查已不再活跃，她将接替Rachel Burden和Rick Edwards担任新角色，后者在周二早晨宣布将于12月卸任。Naga将拥有一位尚未招募的共同主持人。

她于 2009 年首次加入《早安节目》，

并自 2014. 年起与Charlie Stayt共同主持。她自 2021 年起主持Radio 5的上午节目，年薪约为 £360,000.。

在宣布这一消息时，Naga表示：“我很高兴能在一月份加入5 Live早间节目。现场新闻、精彩的对话以及与观众建立联系是我最热爱广播的地方，而5 Live在这些方面做得非常出色。”

“在过去的 17 年里，能够成为BBC《早安节目》电视团队的一员是一项荣幸，能与一群才华横溢且勤奋的记者共同工作，他们不仅是优秀的同事，更是伟大的朋友。在5 Live主持一个旗舰节目是一个实在无法错过的好机会。”

“这将需要巨大的工作量，并需要我 100% 的专注和精力，我非常期待全身心地投入到这个角色中。”

Rachel将转而主持工作日的上午节目。她表示：“在主持了 15 年的5 Live早间节目后，我决定是时候做出改变了——我对此感到非常兴奋。”

“这些年来能成为我们听众早晨的一部分，绝对是一件快乐且荣幸的事情。”

睡眠问题普遍存在

工作压力是睡眠障碍的主要原因

作者：MARTIN BAGOT

一项研究表明， 10 分之 9 的 50 岁以上人群至少有时会遭受睡眠障碍的困扰，而与工作相关的压力被认为是主因。

在一项针对 50 至 66, 92 岁工人的年度研究中，至少有一次达到了睡眠障碍临床阈值。

研究人员通过可穿戴技术和问卷调查收集数据，并利用人工智能确定工作压力是预测睡眠问题的关键因素之一。

他们还发现，几乎 70% 的参与者经历了持续的、具有临床意义的睡眠问题，尽管他们没有被诊断出睡眠障碍的历史。

醒来

科学家表示，在 45 名研究参与者中，主要问题不在于睡眠时长，而是在于睡着后出现醒来的情况。

研究负责人、爱丁堡大学的Thanasi Tsanas教授表示：“我对这个原本未被诊断的群体中所揭示的睡眠问题的规模感到由衷的惊讶。”

Tsanas教授的合著者Belinda Steffan博士表示：“我们的研究强调，睡眠是一个职场健康与福祉问题。”

“组织和雇主必须考虑与工作相关的睡眠问题对其员工的影响，特别是 50 岁以上的工人。”

观看 Netflix 的观众与 BBC 同样之多

作者：JOSIE CLARKE

一项由 Ofcom 开展的调查表明，电视观众在决定观看内容时，选择 Netflix 的可能性现在与选择 BBC 相当。

根据监管机构的年度《媒体国家》(Media Nations) 报告，这家总部位于美国的流媒体平台现在是 26% 观众的首选，而 BBC 为 25%。ITV 是 15% 观众的首选。

与此同时，人们在电视上观看 YouTube 的时间自 2022 年以来翻了一番，平均每人每天 19 分钟，年长观众越来越多地转向该平台。

在家庭中所有设备上，YouTube 的总观看时间增加到每人每天 41 分钟，高于 2022 年的 33 分钟。在 75 岁及以上的人群中，每周观看 YouTube 的比例从 2022 年的 28% 上升到去年的 33%。Ofcom 表示，这些数据凸显了传统广播公司在面对全球流媒体平台和在线视频服务时所面临的“日益增长的挑战”。

尽管 BBC iPlayer、ITVX 和 5 streaming 等点播电视的增长率同比增长了 9%，但这不足以抵消传统频道观众数量的持续下降。

去年，英国 70% 的人在平均一周内观看传统广播公司（包括直播电视、录播回放和点播服务）的内容至少 15 分钟。这一比例低于 2024 年的 73% 和 2022 年的 78%。所有年龄组都出现了下降，包括 75 岁及以上的观众。

美国流媒体巨头极受欢迎

播客

Netflix 在 2025 年播出了整体观看率最高的两档节目——《K-Pop Demon Hunters》和《Adolescence》——而 BBC 今年迄今播出了 10 档最受关注节目中的 8 档，包括《The Night Manager》和《Run Away》。

《Celebrity Traitors》及其视频播客《Traitors Uncloaked》是今年迄今为止最大的剧目，其决赛在 BBC One 和 iPlayer 上的平均观众人数达到 14.9 百万。7 月 15 日，英格兰在世界杯半决赛中负于阿根廷，在 BBC 平台上的最高观众人数达到 24 million。

除屏幕外，93% 的成年人听某种形式的音频内容，且 87% 的人每周听现场广播。目前，超过四分之一的成年人每周听播客。

Ofcom 战略与研究集团总监 Kate Davies 表示：“竞争非常激烈。但传统广播公司在重大的国家时刻表现出了韧性，同时也扩大了其数字化产品。”

“在当前的环境下，公司比以往任何时候都更需要了解不断变化的观众习惯，并调整策略以适应人们的需求。”

一艘法国军舰在距离保守党人 Chris Philp 300 码远的地方发射了实弹，Philp 称这是一种恐吓尝试。

这位影子内政大臣当时正在一艘渔船上接受 BBC 记者 Michael Keohan 关于跨英吉利海峡移民的采访，此时海军巡逻艇上的一名巡逻员发射了大约 17 发子弹。Philip 先生表示他遭到了攻击。

他补充道：“没有任何通知或训练演习。法国在阻止数万名移民非法穿越海峡方面做得很少，而且现在看来他们正在恐吓任何试图揭露这一事实的人。”

“法国军舰在距离我们最近的点在我们的后方发射了 17 枚实弹。完全没有警告。感觉这些是警告射击。”

法国政府表示，其船只——PSP Flamant 号——一直在 Cap Gris-Nez 附近进行手枪射击演习。

政府补充称：“此次射击演习已按照国际标准显示了所需的监管信号，并遵守了安全区域。此次演习与英国船只出现在

该区域无关，且该船只处于射击范围之外。Flamant 号并未参与移民船监测行动。”

Philip 先生坚持认为：“没有任何关于实弹射击训练演习的警告。这看起来和听起来完全像是蓄意恐吓。” 随后他拍摄了被其称作的法国官员在观看一艘寻求庇护者船只出发的画面。在访问德比（Derby）期间，首相 Andy Burnham 表示政府正在解决穿越问题，但仍有更多工作要做。

与此同时，人口走私者在加来（Calais）南部的费康普（Fecamp）地带发动了一艘橡皮艇，显然目标是东本汉姆（Eastbourne）。这次 70 英里的航程将避开传统穿越点的打击。一艘英国边境部队船只拦截了该橡皮艇。

“没有任何警告。这看起来和听起来就像是恐吓”

火车司机对缺乏厕所使用权的愤怒

在有指控称火车司机仍被强迫在数小时内无法使用厕所、从而危及健康的情况下，司机们正威胁要采取工业行动。

Aslef 工会表示，一些司机经常被要求在没有厕所休息的情况下长时间工作，增加了膀胱问题和其他严重医疗状况的风险。

一年前，在铁路与公路办公室（Office of Rail and Road）的英国铁路总督 Richard Hines 告知他们“可靠的福利设施是任何文明社会的[基本要求]”后，火车运营商和 Network Rail 承诺改善厕所和洗手间设施。

作者：FRANCES MILLAR

但 Aslef 声称自那时起几乎没有改变。

总书记 Dave Calfe 表示：“我们需要行动，而不是失效的承诺，来改善司机的厕所设施，并减少司机在没有厕所休息的情况下被要求坚持的时间。”

Calfe 先生猛烈抨击该行业的“不作为”，并补充道：“我们公开点名他们，并明确告诉他们，现在是时候兑现承诺了，否则将产生后果。”

如果没有任何进展，Aslef 不排除采取工业行动。

Burnham 的社会护理愿景可能定义其执政期

在过去的三十年里，人们尝试了 22 次改革社会护理，但该系统依然处于危机之中。

Andy Burnham 将阐述他应对这一问题的愿景，他承认如果不对该问题进行处理，将导致 NHS（国家医疗服务体系）的“崩溃”。

现任首相曾在 2009 年担任卫生大臣期间尝试推行全民护理服务但以失败告终。现在，遗憾的是，他优先推动变革有着深刻的个人动机。Burnham 先生的父亲患有阿尔茨海默症，并不知道他的儿子现在领导着这个国家。

首相表示，这让他看到了该系统是如何损坏的，且不能维持现状。

许多人在尝试为亲人争取护理时，都会产生同样的挫败感。要最终取得进展需要决心，而 Burnham 先生承认他愿意为此投入政治资本，这一点值得欢迎。

但对于那些未能就新首相人选发表意见的公众来说，理应持有怀疑态度。这些承诺他们以前都听过。在 11 个被选入社会护理研究的国家中，英格兰的系统是最不慷慨的之一，即便与英国其他地区相比也是如此。

任何改革如何获得资金支持，将是公众是否支持这些他们从未有机会投票决定之变革的核心关键。

在税率已处于历史高位的情况下，通过昂的新税收来融资，对于一位没有民意授权的首相来说将是一个危险的举动。

波兰斯基不适合领导

ZACK Polanski 在体面方面已经有了令人质疑的记录。在众多失策中，这位绿党党魁在分享了一条谴责逮捕 Golders Green 袭击案嫌疑人的警察行动的社交媒体帖子后，不得不道歉。

在盲目向追随者推送素材时，这起事件至少应该让他停下来思考。但波兰斯基先生似乎没有吸取教训——他分享了一篇包含一张照片的帖子，照片中一名男子穿着一件印有断头台图像的上衣，并配文：“我们只是在为 Nigel 做计划。”

这一行为遭到了政治光谱各界的谴责，改革党（Reform）已向警方举报该图像，称该帖子煽动暴力。

波兰斯基先生显然在分享时并未意识到该图像（它是众多图像之一），且尚未道歉。这首先表现出惊人的粗心，其次则表现出某种冷漠。

波兰斯基先生的领导能力再次受到质疑，且遗憾地被证明不合格。

纪念美好生活

不出所料，上个月去世、享年 86 岁的 Penelope Keith 勋爵的葬礼上，一些明星出席了，包括电视界名将 Robert Lindsay、Neil Pearson 和 Patricia Hodge。

甚至有一位前首相，Sir John Major。

但令人瞩目的是，她居住的萨里郡 Milford 村的村民们在街道两旁排队，为葬礼队伍表达敬意。

这证明她确实过上了《美好生活》（The Good Life）。

首相的挑战是让年轻人走出去工作

首相 Andy Burnham 现在是打击青年疾病福利金的最佳时机。在 £333 billion 福利账单大山中，个人独立支付金（Pips）竟然向那些因焦虑问题而休假的年轻人支付的金额，比那些从事最低工资兼职工作的年轻人高出 £100。通过削减英国巨额的福利账单，Burnham 将能够兑现他的其他承诺，而且他现在在大多数后座议员中的受欢迎程度将达到顶峰。毫不夸张地说，他必须抓住这个时机，否则将使我们陷入进一步衰退的命运。

大约 87,000 16 和 17 岁的青少年正在领取 Pips，其中三分之二每周领取 £194，用于支付包括焦虑、抑郁和自闭症在内的心理健康问题费用。

如果一名青少年每周工作 12 小时并领取最低工资，他们实际到手的金额仅为 £94，而领取福利金则能让他们获得两倍的收入。显然，这种无需审查资产的福利是不公平的，且明显挫伤了工作积极性。

Pips 的流行意味着不在教育、就业或培训中的青少年（即所谓的 Neets）数量已激增至 100 万以上。这种打破出门工作习惯的福利，实际上可能会增加年轻人的抑郁感和疏离感，同时也增加了国家的债务山。

领取丧能福利的人数预计将从 1.4 million 增加到 2030. 令人震惊的 400 万。与全球其他地区就业率已恢复到疫情前水平不同，英国仍有 700,000 更多的人因健康担忧而失业。遗憾的是，英国人一直在忙于学习如何

Andy Burnham 在 BBC 节目《周日与 Laura Kuenssberg 面对面》中讨论他的计划

Tim Newark

政治评论员

领取越来越多的福利，而左倾政府则为此铺平了道路。

工党的增税也没有起到帮助作用，由于国民保险和最低工资的上涨，雇主被打击，不愿雇佣年轻工人，导致年轻人的传统就业岗位大幅减少。

福利的轻易获取仅仅是加剧了这种青年失业的恶性循环。

面对同样不断增加的 Neets（不就业也不上学青年）数量，荷兰政府通过大幅削减青少年的最低工资来解决这个问题，从而鼓励企业和行业雇佣经验较少的工人。

荷兰的费率鼓励离校者就业。荷兰的最低工资为每小时 £3.83，而 Rachel Reeves 强加给企业的最低工资为 £10.85，将于下月生效。荷兰还坚持要求所有领取福利的年轻人从事社区工作。结果，荷兰的 Neets 比例下降到 4.9%，而英国则为 12.8%。

在英国，轻易可得的福利意味着餐饮等行业无法获得他们需要的年轻人，以便为下一代服务业工人提供培训。

相反，这些岗位正由勤奋的移民填补。

解决这一系统性问题是 Burnham 致力于处理其他政府不敢触及的长期问题的一部分。

尽管在 2024, 年获得了压倒性胜利，但当左翼后座议员威胁要对削减计划发起反抗时，Keir Starmer 在首次尝试回撤激增的福利时犹豫不决。

相比之下，Burnham 赢得了这些激进左翼分子的认可，现在有一个短暂的机会窗口来推行一些急需的改革。他曾吹嘘自己有决心改变过去 40 年的政治，而现在就是他必须兑现这一承诺的时刻。

他明确表示，工党只有最后一次机会证明自己能够负责任且有效地治理。这就是挑战所在。

通过坚持要求年轻人除非在接受培训或从事志愿者工作，否则不能领取 Pips，他将鼓励建立一个更健康、更能适应找工作的国家。通过减少就业障碍，他还将产生更多资金来兑现他的承诺，包括他在社会护理方面的变革。

Burnham 喜欢大谈特谈，现在他必须在民调处于高位以及获得一些原本反叛的议员支持的情况下，强力推行这些变革。

Burnham 倾向于职业贸易而非大学课程，他深知英国的未来取决于鼓励劳动精神。

通过阻止年轻人以虚假的健康问题地在家里无所事事，他将为我们的国家带来巨大的整体好处。支持真正的工人阶级。

“Burnham 必须在处于高位时强力推行变革”

Vanessa Feltz

衷心之言

Fergie 凭借前任 Paddy 暴富

那些自称知情的人暗示，目前低调行事的 Sarah Ferguson 将通过其已故前任——F1 招待服务千万富翁 Paddy McNally 的遗产而从枯燥的债务中解脱。显然，两人一直保持密切关系，而上周去世（享年 88, 岁）的 McNally 在 Sarah 与被定罪的恋童癖 Jeffrey Epstein 有着肮脏联系的情况下，依然为她提供了避风港。朋友们认为，McNally 对其前女友最后的重大支持举措将是一笔可观的现金遗产。

据认为，他太了解这位挥霍无度的前公爵夫人，所以不会给她一张巨额支票。相反，他会通过将其设为信托基金来保护这笔钱，向她支付年金，这样她就不能用她一贯奢侈的方式将其挥霍一空。

从一个在 1985 年分手的前任那里得到一大块巨款？难怪人们说富人的做事方式不同。

全新教育大臣鲍威尔在胡言乱语

我们的新任教育大臣露西·鲍威尔（Lucy Powell）并不怎么在意事实和数字。她声称自己是就读天主教第六形式学院（sixth form college）的学生中唯一考入牛津大学的人。

其实不然。她还声称不喜欢萨默塞特学院（Somerville College），因为她觉得自己像一只“脱离水的鸭子”（duck out of water），这是她随意无视准确性的另一个例子。

正确的短语应该是“如鱼离水”（a fish out of water）。如果鲍威尔分不清鸭子和鱼，她怎么可能把之前所有的事都“排成一排”（in a row）处理好？

我的人生故事，像读一本书一样读我

颇像安东尼·鲍威尔（Anthony Powell）的《时间之舞》（A Dance To The Music Of Time）中的林赛·巴格肖（Lindsay Bagshaw）那样，我一直相信“书籍能装点房间”。无论它们是堆在摇摇欲坠的宜家架子上，还是精致地排列在雕刻华丽的乔治三世时期桃花心木书柜里，都无关紧要。我的书，有些破旧，有些是首版，反映了我人生中美好的、糟糕的以及极其可怕的片段。

AA 米尔恩（AA Milne）的《当我们还很年幼时》（When We Were Very Young）与戴斯蒙德·莫里斯（Desmond Morris）的《裸猿》（The Naked Ape）并列，范妮·希尔（Fanny Hill）的《快活女人回忆录》（Memoirs Of A Woman Of Pleasure）在乔叟（Chaucer）的《禽议会》（A Parliament Of Fowls）身边。你被迫阅读的书与你欣然阅读并反复研读的书一同展示。来自很久以前的前任的礼物，上面写着对我青春魅力的抒情赞美，被令人恐惧的 O level 教材和那些让我一个字都想不起来的乏味小说所侧拥。

伊丽莎白·戴维德（Elizabeth David）的食谱上沾着古老的肉汁块，靠在拉鲁斯（Larousse）宏伟的《神话辞典》（Mythology）上。叶芝（Yeats）与普鲁斯特（Proust）挤在一起——自从 24 年前我搬进来，把我的“图书馆”随意地塞进前任住户的架子上，并誓言在有空时将它们整理成符合美学的合理排列以来——普鲁斯特就舒适地靠在 L.M. 蒙哥马利（LM Montgomery）那迷人的《绿山墙的安妮》（Anne Of Green Gables）上。

我想，任何翻阅我这堆书籍的人都会立刻知道我们是否投缘。我也确实干过翻阅陌生人藏书的行为，并仅仅因为他们喜欢索尔·贝娄（Saul Bellow）或芭芭拉·卡特兰（Barbara Cartland），就决定我非常喜欢他们，或者与他们完全没有共同语言。

你可能会好奇，为什么我在沉思关于终身私人图书馆的事情？已故的、迷人的《雪人》创作者雷蒙德·布里格斯（Raymond Briggs）的遗产地将其收藏的一千多本珍贵书籍捐赠给了乐施会（Oxfam）。粉丝们纷纷涌入，惊叹于 20 世纪 50 年代的 30 本年度漫画集，以及奥布里·比亚兹利（Aubrey Beardsley）、E.H. 舍泼德（EH Shepard）、查尔斯·舒尔茨（Charles Schulz）和波西·西蒙兹（Posy Simmonds）的作品，人们认为这些作品帮助塑造了布里格斯本人独一无二的插画风格。

我打赌你已经猜到我想说什么了。当然，我在思考，当我离开这个凡世时，是将我那一堆翻旧了的书籍处理这件事强加给我的孩子们，还是现在就开始剔除那些劣作？

问题在于，我已经对我这个杂乱的图书馆产生了一定的感情。每一册书——我知道这听起来愚蠢地多情——都感觉像是我的一部分——是的，即使是我完全遗忘的小说也是如此。

反思之后，我无法舍弃其中任何一本。拖延症占据了上风。

极其愚蠢的 cha cha 舞步变动

天哪！难道就没有什么是神圣不可侵犯的吗？BBC 为了吸引年轻观众而采取的巧妙但致命的决心，是否正在蔓延到《舞动奇迹》（Strictly）中？

该节目不仅签约了五位无名专业舞者，他们摆出姿势，向人们展示光洁的腹肌，看起来就像是在参加 K-pop 乐队的试镜；他们还雇用了《爱之岛》（Love Island）的获胜者 Cach Mercer（左图），以及——我没在开玩笑——Kim Kerdeshian 的发型师。

为什么老板们不明白？《舞动奇迹》是给老年人、孩子以及处于两者之间所有舞蹈爱好者的。给年长者安排一个 Lulu 或 Gloria Hunniford，我们就会确保我们的孙辈们支持他们。

我们依然在效仿伟大的 Leo Goodman。我们想要的是那些我们认得的、以魅力和优雅起舞的名字，而不是一群半裸的青少年，像是不小心弄丢了舞杆的钢管舞者一样在扭动。

在谈到我的新 YouTube 节目《与凡妮莎在一起，在家里》（At Home, With Vanessa）时，一位著名的女性专栏作家亲切地表达了姐妹般的团结与鼓励。

我正把我的客厅改成工作室——在我写作时，有 15 位可爱的建筑工人正在辛勤劳作——并且，就像我在《大早餐》（Big Breakfast）的床上做过的那样，我将在我的闺房里采访一些贵宾。她祝我好运，然后补充道：“你必须意识到，现在你 64 岁且单身，想诱惑任何人进入你的卧室就更难了。”她说对了一半，也错了一半。

令人惊讶的是，我并没有发现缺乏热衷于钻进被窝和我亲热一番的男人们。

有趣的是，潜在的竞争者年龄跨度从 30 岁出头到 70 岁中期不等。然而，我已经意识到，我想要的不仅仅是一次毫无意义的翻云覆雨。我确实有点挑剔，但我想要向那些担心我可能在忍受无尽禁欲的人保证，那些邀请我参与“长沙发上的喧嚣”的慷慨提议依然丰沛。

无能且浪费的水务公司像打开水龙头一样地开启软管禁令

看在上帝的份上，又一个软管禁令被强加在我们身上，天啊，我们简直气疯了！给我 LBC 节目打电话的听众描述了未修复的泄漏口正在泵出无数加仑的浪费之水，而水务公司则太混乱，根本不屑于去截断水流。我们都知道股东们通过丰厚的股息获得了巨额利润，而维多利亚时代的基础设施却被任由崩塌。我们很愿意节水，但对于因为水务监管机构 Ofuut 的绝对无能而被圈禁在另一个禁令中而感到愤怒。我的天，这些企业垄断了我们生存不可或缺的产品，他们怎么会负担不起维持关键管道达标的费用？

体育界顶尖人物如何登顶

所有优秀书店及亚马逊均在售

PAUL ZANON 辉煌背后

用心成就顶峰

Frances Millar

坦白说……

本周看到梅根·马克尔（Meghan Markle）出现在《澳大利亚顶级厨师》（MasterChef Australia）中真是太令人愉悦了。我知道我在这方面属于少数派，但我是一个粉丝。我钦佩的是那种执着。以奥运会级别的投入去维持一个完美的公众形象，观看起来真是令人兴奋。每一次亮相都像平衡木决赛，一旦出现摇晃，就会引发人们的惊呼。

这就是为什么我非常享受她的电视系列剧。在花朵的点缀和收获篮之间，你偶尔可以看到面具的脱落。比如，在面对网球球星大坂直美（Naomi Osaka）被要求画马克杯时那平淡的表情和精力时，她所 conjured 出来的狂热热情。

对于一个喋喋不休谈论真实性的人来说，梅根的真实程度就像一个 Dolce and Banana 手袋一样，这提醒了人们，Pinterest 灵感板不能替代个性。

尽管如此，我还是津津有味地看了每一集，并对该剧没有续订第三季感到失望。

因此，我热切地收看了她在《顶级厨师》中担任客座评委的片段，这是在她和哈里最近前往澳洲之行期间拍摄的。而它没有让人失望。从一开始，梅根就在一种宛如对待 Attenborough 级别的尊重介绍中受到欢迎：“一个全球偶像。一名慈善家。一位人道主义者。一位因其心肠、声音以及对家庭烹饪的深爱而闻名世界的女性。”

嗯，好吧。“远道而来的阳光加州……”没错。“萨塞克斯公爵夫人……”也是没错。“梅根……马克尔。”噢，开始了。她不会喜欢这个称呼的。

对主持人来说幸运的是，梅根在进入演播室时有一段很长的戏剧性行走，所以无法在镜头前纠正她，就像她对自己的嘉宾 Mindy Kaling 做的那样，咬牙切齿地提醒对方：“你知道我现在是萨塞克斯（Sussex）。”

在滔滔不绝地谈论“新鲜香草和香料”之后，梅根揭晓了挑战。巨大的红色窗帘被拉开，露出摆满柠檬、澳洲坚果、樅离果、草莓、芹根、耶路撒冷朝鲜蓟、抱球甘蓝、苹果和胡萝卜碗的桌子。

“有很多可选性，”梅根面无表情地宣布，然后要求他们选择一个

再次，Binface 伯爵的星际天线准确捕捉到了英国人的想法。这位喜剧候选人为克莱克顿（Clacton）补选揭晓了一份 20 点竞选宣言，在现阶段，这份宣言比我们从首相那里得到的任何东西都要详细。

该宣言将矛头指向竞争对手奈杰尔·法拉奇（Nigel Farage），誓言不“接受来自（地球上）加密货币亿万富翁的 £5 million 礼品”，同时建议，在议会任期中途辞职的议员应被禁止参加由其引发的补选。另一项承诺将强制要求改变政党的议员重新面对选民——这是在讽刺法拉奇的盟友 Robert Jenrick 和 Danny Kruger。

Richard Osman 可能也想密切关注结果。Binface 誓言要对“名人撰写（或‘代写’）的温馨犯罪小说”征收意外之财税。为了向克莱克顿致敬，他还承诺让游戏厅的抓娃娃机更公平，“让玩家真正有机会赢”，而且他在公交车票价上限 £1.99 方面比 Burnham 还要好 1p。Binface 并不是唯一的玩笑候选人，来自 Monster Raving Loony 党的三名候选人以及演员 Laurence Fox 也在参选。这绝对会很有趣，尽管完全没有必要。

“核心食材”并从中寻找“背后的故事”作为烹饪灵感。稍后在节目中，哈里以一种不可思议的方式客串出现，他那大胡子红发面孔在手机屏幕中若隐若现。

由于她已经多次提到“我的丈夫”，所以这并不令人惊讶，尽管我对那些凡事都在一起做的小两口总是心存怀疑。

尽管如此，我真的认为 Netflix 应该再给他们一次机会。很少有事情能像讨厌阿根廷以及集体对这两个人翻白眼那样，将我们这个国家凝聚在一起。

法国山火大规模疏散

山火照片：© 2023 / JAFP

“知道火势能如此接近，这真的很可怕”

作者：JEREMY ARMSTRONG

波尔多郊区山火肆虐的触目惊心之图揭示了惊恐的当地居民逃离后，房屋被焚烧后的焦黑残骸。

消防员在 39C 的酷暑中努力控制火势，目前已有 42,000 公顷土地和 240 栋房屋被毁。法国和西班牙全境已有超过 300,000 人被疏散。

烟雾缭绕

波尔多居民 Chris de Abrea 表示，当窒息的黑云笼罩在这座西南部城市上空时，空气中弥漫着燃烧的味道。他说：“这让我想起了庞贝……空气中烟雾很大；很难呼吸。”

“人们最担心的是，‘如果没有家人，我接下来该去哪里？’以及‘我还能再次见到我的家吗？’”

他补充道：“知道火势能如此接近，这真的很可怕。”

来自 Le Porge（向东约

25 英里）的照片显示了这场大火是如何摧毁沿途房产的。

法国总统埃马纽埃尔·马克龙表示：“我们必须意识到，我们面对的是一场完全前所未有的山火。”

“我们正在处理的情况是我们记录以来最严重的。所有可用资源已全部部署，超过 1,500 名军方人员协助灭火。”为了阻止火势蔓延，人们挖掘并加固了防火隔离带。

一名居民讲述了她周六早上如何与她的英国伴侣以及他们 19. 岁的儿子一起，从位于 Saint-Medard-en-Jalles（距离市区不到 30 分钟车程）的家中被疏散。她说：“我们所有人以及两只狗都离开了，逃到了 Agen，我们在那里预订了一家酒店。”

“这里出现了一股巨大的团结浪潮，成百上千的人为不得不疏散的人们提供一两个房间，并且有 9,000 人登记成为志愿者协助各项事务。不过，随着我们进入今年的第四次热浪，我们都担心情况可能会再次恶化。”

“被疏散的感觉非常超现实。你在电影和新闻中看到过，但你不会真的认为这会发生在自己身上，所以你感觉像是在从外部观察自己，一切都像是在慢动作中发生。”

飞机在 Saint-Jean d'Illac 上空投放水，这里距离法国西南部波尔多市仅 10 英里。

警报

“我不禁在想，也许这将是我最后一次看到我的房子。

“我们在凌晨 1.45am 乘车离开了家。许多车正从车道中驶出，没有出现恐慌。火焰距离这里仍有 14km (8.7 miles)，我们相信人们会尽一切努力阻止它们抵达郊区。”

西班牙国家气象局也因酷暑以及大片干枯如tinder的乡村地区而处于高度戒备状态。

Jack Shepherd 在 2019 年的一家乔治亚州法院看向他的律师

快艇杀手用烧烤夹袭击女友

快艇杀手 Jack Shepherd 已承认暴力袭击其女友，其中包括使用一把烧烤夹对其进行攻击。

在三起独立的事件中，他用烧烤夹击打这名 50 多岁的女性，将其按在地上并击打，并损坏了她的钥匙。

法院昨日获悉，这些罪行导致 Shepherd 被召回监狱。他最初因 2018 年导致 24, 岁的 Charlotte Brown 死亡而被判处过失致死罪，当时他在伦敦市中心泰晤士河的一次初次约会期间，其驾驶的快艇发生了碰撞。

但在被引渡回英国服刑之前，他在乔治亚州潜逃期间逃避了在中央刑事法院（Old Bailey）的审判。

蓄胡的 Shepherd，38, 岁，通过视频链接出席

作者：PATRICK HILL

肯特郡 HMP Swaleside 监狱的视频链接出现在 Isleworth 刑事法院，他穿着一件开领蓝色衬衫，袖子卷起。

他承认了三项罪名——两项实际身体伤害罪（ABH）和一项刑事毁坏罪。他否认了故意窒息以及控制和胁迫行为的指控，这些指控将保留在案。

Charlotte Brown 在初次约会中丧生

2025, 年 2 月，他将当时的伴侣按在地上，击打她，并用烧烤夹攻击她的胸部。该月他还损坏了她的钥匙。

他于 September 13, 2025, 被召回监狱，原因是违反了假释条件，据称他违反保释条件给其最新的受害者写信，并错过了晚上 11 点返回指定住所的宵禁时间。

他将于 September 4 在西伦敦法院被判刑。

Shepherd 在因杀死 Charlotte 服刑不到六年之后，于 2024 年 1 月获准假释。

2015, 年 12 月，Shepherd 的快艇撞上一根淹没的树干，导致她被甩出船外，死于冷水浸没。

PENELOPE KEITH 1940-2026

作者：ALLISTER HAGGER

DAME Penelope Keith 昨日在她的家乡村庄得到了最后一轮掌声，迎来了体面的最后告别。

萨里郡 Milford 的居民们在街边排队鼓掌，迎接这位深受喜爱的女演员的葬礼车队通过。

Dame Penelope 曾在喜剧《贵族之风》（To The Manor Born）和《美好生活》（The Good Life）中给数百万人带来欢乐，她在与癌症抗争后于上月去世，享年 86 岁。

她的灵柩穿过 Milford——她在戈达明（Godalming）附近居住近五个十年并称之为家的村庄——前往吉尔福德大教堂（Guildford Cathedral）参加仪式。

前首相 Sir John Major 及其妻子 Norma 也是参加葬礼的名人之一。

多位电视明星也在场，包括《我的家庭》（My Family）演员 Robert Lindsay 和《丢掉那头死驴》（Drop The Dead Donkey）的 Neil Pearson。

《米兰达》（Miranda）主演 Patricia Hodge 和《冷脚》（Cold Feet）的 Robert Bathurst 同样出席。

令人动容

广播员兼作家 Gyles Brandreth 作为嘉宾出席，并在社交媒体上分享了一段悼词：“我正前往吉尔福德大教堂，参加佩内洛普·基思女爵士（Dame Penelope Keith）的葬礼——她是一位出色的演员，一个可爱的人，幽默、睿智且善良。”

他在随后的一篇帖子中补充道：“今天早上的吉尔福德大教堂里既有笑声也有泪水。这是一场真正美丽且深情地触动人心的佩内洛普·基思女爵士葬礼仪式。她是如此高雅，仪式也如此完美。这完全契合她的气质。她非常特别。”

佩内洛普女爵士的家人在上个月底的一份声明中确认了她的逝世消息。声明写道：“我们深切地悲痛地宣布，佩内洛普·基思女爵士在与癌症抗争期间，于她在萨里郡的家中平静离世，她在那里的生活已超过 50 年。”

精彩的一生

派遣一个年仅 20 岁出头、榜单冠军的两人组男团前往中国担任英国文化大使的想法，在大多数人看来简直是可笑的。毕竟，那里被认为是世界上最专制的国家之一，更不用说对其他国家构成的严重安全担忧。

但这正是 40 年前发生的事情：榜单冠军 Wham! 乐队将尖叫不断的竞技场换成了国宴，成为首批在共产主义中国演出的西方流行巨星。

到 1985 年 4 月，当时 21 岁的 George Michael 和他的好友，当时 22 岁的 Andrew Ridgeley，已经习惯了由尖叫的青少年组成的观众群，无论走到哪里都会被围堵。然而，在将近两周的时间里，他们在众多接待会和宴会上周旋于微妙的政治文化之中，扮演着外交随员这一不寻常的角色，同时在北京和广州的两场演出中演唱了他们的热门歌曲。

现在，一部名为《Wham! 10 Days in China》的非凡新纪录片揭示了这次历史性访问背后非凡的政治、文化和个人故事——导演 Mike Christie 认为，这次访问的真实影响随着时间的推移才变得清晰。

该片利用惊人的档案片段以及与在场人员的新采访（包括 40 年来首次返回该国的 Ridgeley），深入探讨了此次访问的遗产以研究其影响。

“Andrew 自 1985 年以来就没回去过，他非常渴望和我们一起去，”Christie 在本周电影上映之际接受《快报》采访时表示。

“我们绝不会拍摄 Andrew 前往他以前和 George 去过的餐厅之类的场景。”

“这不是一次怀旧之旅。这不是那种类型的电影。”

“但他对这个想法产生了兴趣，因为他想了解这次[巡演]的遗产和影响。而理解这一切的唯一真实方式就是和我们一起去。”

导演 Christie 将这种影响描述为“惊人的”。

他说：“我认为我们都被遗产展开的方式惊呆了。我们做过研究电话访谈，所以知道有一个积极的故事可以讲述。但我们没料到它会达到那样的高度。这是一个非凡的启示。”

这次巡演最初是出于资本主义原因而设计的——考虑到其共产主义的地点，这颇具讽刺意味。

当时 Wham! 正试图打入美国市场，这涉及在那个广袤的国家进行大规模巡演。他们凭借《Wake Me Up Before You Go-Go》以及 Michael 的个人单曲《Careless Whisper》获得了美国榜单冠军的成功，但他们需要额外的推动力才能稳居顶峰。

但只有一个问题：Michael 当时患有未被诊断出的声带息肉，因此长期的美国巡演是不可能的（他后来在 1988 年接受了成功手术，切除了声带上的囊肿）。

于是，乐队经理 Simon Napier-Bell 站了出来，他为这对西方二人组构思了一个精妙的宣传方案，让他们在中国举办两场音乐会，从而确保获得包括美国在内的全球头条新闻。

但故事并非全然积极。一个主要问题是电影导演 Lindsay Anderson，当时 61 岁，他是“自由电影”运动的领军人物，尽管他缺乏

明星 George Michael 和 Andrew Ridgeley 在中国长城

导演 Mike Christie 对上帝感到惊讶

对 Wham! 的兴趣。事情从一开始就很不顺利。Ridgeley 立即就反感 Anderson，认为一个以电影作品闻名且对流行音乐毫无兴趣的作者去拍摄这部电影简直是“极其荒谬” (bloody ridiculous)。由于 Anderson 的镜头聚焦于中国社会而非 Wham!，他被解雇了，原先的纪录片也被中止。

原片中的部分素材在 Christie 的电影中得到了重建。在片中，Ridgeley 对这次巡演以及随行报道该乐队的媒体所表现出的蔑视之情无法掩饰。

为这位歌手辩护的话是，他当时承受了巨大的媒体压力，狗仔队将他描绘成一个花花公子和派对之徒。但可以肯定地说，他当时的状态并非最佳，沮丧情绪显而易见。在其中一个场景中，他在对记者的提问感到冒犯后走出了新闻发布会。Christie 今日坚称，现年 63 岁的 Ridgeley 坚持要求将这段素材保留在他的纪录片中。

“我有点紧张，因为当我们完成初剪时，我记得在想：‘我是否需要提醒 Andrew，根据他自己的承认，他认为自己有时表现得并不特别得体？我是否需要提醒他，这在片中实际上显得有点态度傲慢？’”

“[但] 他看完后说：‘我完全可以接受。最重要的是这部电影要真实。我现在还会那样表现吗？不会。但我那时那样想吗？是的。保留它。’”

Christie 表示，Ridgeley 和 Michael 的遗产管理方都没有采取行动去“美化”这部电影，这让他印象深刻。“在给他们应有的评价时，当他们看到剪辑版时，他们极力争取保留一些较为尴尬的时刻，因为他们希望它是真实的，”他补充道。

结果便是一部对 1985 年巡演毫无掩饰的记录，其中利用了 Anderson 那部时长 77 分钟、被搁置的名为《If You Were There》的纪录片场景以及从未曝光过的素材。

Christie 在 2024, 年发现了大量装有原始电影胶卷的胶片罐后，开始着手制作这部纪录片。其中一部分已经被重新剪辑过。在 Anderson 被解雇后，Wham! 聘请了音乐录像带导演 Andy Morahan，将他拍摄的关于中国社会的日常素材重新打造成为一部聚焦于乐队的宣传粉丝片。他剪辑的电影《Wham! in China: Foreign Skies》于 1986 年发行，并在当年 6 月两人在温布利球场举行的最后一场演唱会上向 72,000 名粉丝展播。

尽管如此，Christie 承认在着手寻找原始素材时，他完全不知道还剩下什么。

“当我们最初提议拍摄这部电影时，我们认为我们可能会基于《Foreign Skies》，加上 Lindsay Anderson 拍摄但未被使用且未曝光的纪录片剪辑版本——也就是最终导致他被解雇的那个版本，”他说。

“但一旦我们将这些胶片罐

送到后期制作公司，就出现了一张巨大的长清单。没有人知道里面是什么——它们一直被存储起来，没有人看过。有超过 20 小时的新素材。”

他露出了微笑，对这段回忆感到十分欣喜。“所以我们能够以此制作一部完全全新的电影。”

Christie 的电影无疑是一部引人入胜且极具吸引力的作品。

“我们在开始时就知道这里有五层叙事，”他继续道。“首先是中国，这显然对我们来说是一件大事——我们觉得那个故事没有得到足够的时间。然后是音乐故事、媒体故事、[失败的] 纪录片故事，以及 George 和 Andrew 的个人关系，”Christie 说道。

后者才是真正令他惊讶的地方。“我们可以看到 George 和 Andrew 之间令人惊叹的羁绊，”他说。“这两个人从 10 或 11 岁起就认识了。而这种化学反应在片中呈现出的方式让我感到非常惊喜。”

“你在他们的肢体语言和……”

诚实以及他们之间的亲密关系，我认为这是一件很棒的事情。我认为在乔治·迈克尔（George Michael）的[后期]职业生涯及其认可度方面，我们有很多要感谢安德鲁（Andrew）的地方。”

M

迈克尔于 2016 年去世，因此这部新电影无疑将成为他的粉丝们的福音。影片中还包含了一些关于流行巨星之名及其所有混乱之美的诱人见解。在一个亲密的瞬间，里奇利（Ridgeley）和迈克尔在车后座出行时，为了要给出席宴会的中国官员写的一篇演讲稿而争吵。

克里斯蒂（Christie）承认自己在之前对“Wham! 乐队”持“相对中立”的态度（尽管他的妹妹是“一名狂热粉丝”），但随后他对该乐队产生了新的认识。

“我被现场表演的质量震撼了。我没想到一个 12 人的乐队能拥有那种水准的音乐造诣，”他承认道。“回顾 Wham! 很容易认为，‘哦，他们是一支流行乐队，他们是一支男团’。但我一生都在音乐界工作，我对那些表演和那些音乐家的质量感到由衷且非常愉快地惊讶。”

虽然这对组合的天赋和活力从未受到质疑，但电影中最令人不安的场景是切到那些静止不动的人群的镜头。中国当局严格禁止观众站立或跳舞——考虑到 Wham! 极具感染力的流行曲调，这无疑是很困难的——因此人们在座位上通过礼貌地鼓掌来应对每一首歌。

事实上，在某个时间点，片段显示一名观众因为在演出中途尝试跳舞而被拖出场馆。这既令人不安，也是对当时压抑的中国文化的一次迷人的反思。

在另一个无关的震惊事件中，一名伴奏音乐家在前往第二场演出的航班上经历了严重的精神崩溃。他捅了自己的腹部并强行闯入飞机的驾驶舱，导致飞机短暂下降。迈克尔和里奇利当时都不在飞机上，但这次事件掩盖了那些精彩演出的光芒。

但该乐队对中国的文化影响如何呢？撇开任何负面时刻不谈，Wham! 为期 10 天的访问影响了许多有幸买到演出票的人。

一名叫崔健的男子在纪录片中讲述了他在音乐会第二天决定辞职，全身心投入到音乐之中的经历。

“他现在相当于中国的布鲁斯·斯普林斯汀（Bruce Springsteen），”克里斯蒂说。

“他是中国摇滚乐的教父。这就是他被人们熟知的身份。

“所以这是这次巡演产生的影响力的一部分。我想我们没有预料到这些人在文化转型方面能产生如此深远的影响。”

独享巨石阵！

获得近距离贵宾私人参观世界遗产地的机会

获胜者将能够享受进入巨石阵的独特权限

这绝对可以被列为有史以来最顶级的“金钱买不到”的奖项之一。

125 年来第一次，公众将有机会参观巨石阵并在完全孤独的状态下欣赏它。

在接下来的整个月里，英国遗产委员会（English Heritage）每天都将为一名幸运儿及其朋友提供进入这个世界著名的石圈的专属私人权限。

提前预订威尔特郡（Wiltshire）该遗址门票的游客将自动参加这项独特体验的每日抽奖。

匕首

虽然在过去的 125 年里，该纪念碑迎来了数百万游客，但与他人分享这一景观通常被认为是体验的一部分。常规游客距离石阵最近的距离通常是在观景小路上，距离纪念碑约 10 到 15 码。

但凭借这个奖项，他们将能够真正地在石头之间及周围徘徊，观察它们是如何被雕刻的——包括古代青铜时代的匕首痕迹，以及建筑师兼天文学家

独家报道

作者：MATT NEXSON

克里斯多夫·雷恩（Sir Christopher Wren）爵士在少年时代将自己的名字随手写在石头上的地方。

自从 1901 年首次引入入场费以来，这种体验就再也没有向公众开放过。

英国遗产委员会巨石阵运营主管 Georgia Butters 表示：“巨石阵是世界上最著名的地标之一，也是全球数百万人的必访目的地。”

“但极少有人能在完全安静的环境中体验这座纪念碑。”

“这确实是一个一生一次的机会，可以独自站在古老的石头之中，感受这个非凡之地的氛围和精神性。”

无论是沉浸在 5,000 年历史中的片刻静思，惊叹于石阵的宏伟规模，寻找古老的雕刻，还是捕捉难忘的影像，获胜者都将与这座标志性纪念碑进行一次独特的个人邂逅。

之后，在获胜者一行人像往常一样继续一日游（参观巨石阵展览或参加该遗址的“伟大的英国夏季”活动）之前，将为每位随行人员提供一份早餐卷和一杯热饮。

无论是否赢得石圈私人之旅，今年夏天参观巨石阵的游客还可以看到有史以来规模最大的史前建筑重建项目——一个位于索尔兹伯里平原（Salisbury Plain）的 22 英尺高的大厅。

该复制品使用燧石斧、林下抚育的榛木和白垩泥抹墙建造，其依据是在附近发现的考古证据。

Kusuma 新石器时代大厅由 100 名志愿者团队历时九个月，使用历史上真实的工艺和当地采购的材料建成。

它基于一座约 4,500 年前的大型史前结构遗迹，该遗迹在石圈东北两英里处、靠近杜灵顿墙（Durrington Walls）定居点遗址的地方被发现。

那里的挖掘工作发现了数千块动物骨骼和大量的沟槽陶器（Grooved Ware pottery），这提供了强有力的证据，证明那里曾举行过盛大的冬季宴会。进入该区域的费用已包含在巨石阵的门票价格中。

为了获得赢得私人访问奖项的机会，游客只需在出行前至少 72 小时购买巨石阵的参观门票。

所有在 8 月份出行期间进行的预订都将自动进入抽奖环节，8 月份的每一天将选出一名获胜的预订者。

卓越

中奖者将至少提前 24 小时收到通知，并将于每天上午 9. 点从游客中心被带至纪念碑，其专属访问权限将于上午 9.30 结束。

在访问期间，巨石阵团队的一名成员将全程陪同，为那些希望了解更多信息的人提供机会，让他们进一步探索这些卓越巨石的秘密以及英国遗产委员会（English Heritage）是如何照管它们的。

裁判于去年九月去世

Dickie Bird leaves £4 in will after death at 92

作者：PAUL JEEVES

遗嘱认证记录显示，传奇板球裁判 Dickie Bird 留下了一笔价值近 400 万英镑的遗产。

这位约克郡人于 2025, 9 月在家中去世，享年 92, 岁，留下的遗产总额为 £3,940,504。

在扣除债务后，该金额减至 £3,900,473。

Bird 未婚且无子女，他将全部财产放入一个最长可运行 125 年的信托基金中。

他的受托人被赋予“绝对酌情权”，可在潜在受益人名单中分配资金，名单包括他的姐姐 Marjorie Wyatt、侄女 Rachel Wyatt 以及任何慈善机构。

作为一名巴恩斯利矿工之子，他成为了板球历史上最著名的裁判，在 1973 年至 1996 年期间主持了 66 场测试赛和三场世界杯决赛。

慷慨

在 his 最后一场测试赛之前，英格兰和印度的球员在勋章球场（Lord's）为他举行了荣誉卫队仪式。

他的自传销量超过一百万册，据称这使他成为了百万富翁。

他住在白玫瑰小屋（White Rose Cottage），这是位于巴恩斯利边缘 Staincross 的一座 16 世纪房产，并于 2014 年被任命为约克郡郡县板球俱乐部主席。

作为公益事业的慷慨支持者，他在 2004 年成立了 Dickie Bird 基金会，以帮助贫困青少年参与体育运动。此外，他支付了 £125,000 用于在约克郡的 Headingley 球场建造一个新的看台。

他在 2013 年表示，他唯一遗憾的是没有家庭。

他说：“我把一生都献给了板球，就这么简单。”

“我从未结婚，因为我与这项运动结了婚。”

他的遗嘱签署于 2024, 1 月，要求受托人根据其文件中留下的任何愿望来分配他的个人物品。

市长 Brian Stoyel 和 Julia Wingate 在 Saitash 门店品尝 Costa 首款双旋风司康

涂抹果酱还是奶油先：情感的旋涡

关于司康饼是“先涂果酱还是先涂奶油”的伟大争论中最新的一次交锋，对于德文郡（Devon）来说是个坏消息。

康沃尔郡（Cornwall）的传统奶油茶是先涂果酱，而邻近的德文郡则始终是先涂奶油——据记载，已故的伊丽莎白二世女王喜欢德文郡的方式。

但 Costa 的一项新民调发现，大多数英国人更倾向于康沃尔风格。压倒性的 71% 的人坚持果酱应该先涂，而坚定的 29% 的人则主张奶油先行。

奶油茶目前正在经历一场大规模复兴，52% 的英国年轻人表示它在 TikTok 上找到了新受众。三分之一的英国人承认，对于奶油与果酱的顺序持有“强烈感受”，其中 36% 的人坚称他们以“正确”的方式涂抹奶油和果酱。研究还发现，55% 的人将 “scone” 的发音读作与 “gone” 押韵，而 45% 的人则说它与 “bone” 押韵。

作者：RICHARD ASHMORE

咖啡连锁店 Costa 通过创建一款“一半一半”的司康饼加入了这场争论，这种司康饼使用特制的双管袋将果酱和奶油共同挤在上面。为了纪念这一时刻，首款双旋风司康被供应给了康沃尔郡 Saitash 的市长 Brian Stoyel 和德文郡 Kingsbridge 的市长 Julia Wingate，地点在 Saitash 门店。

Saitash 的市长 Stoyel 表示：“它非常美味——这证明了有时，让人们走到一起比解决争论更好。” Costa 的 Andrea Stewart 表示：“我们希望创造一个俏皮的折衷方案，同时致敬两种方式。”

“并非所有超加工食品都对我们有害”

作者：FRANCES MILLAR

营养学家表示，努力健康饮食的人在面对关于超加工食品的警告时，应当结合常识来对待，因为其中许多食品是健康的。

根据加工级别的分类，焗豆、罐装桃子和 Shreddies 谷物片都属于超加工食品 (UPFs)。

但研究人员现在表示，食物的营养质量可能比它在工厂中如何生产更为重要。

诸如强化早餐谷物、全麦面包、植物奶以及罐装水果和豆类等产品，仍然可以为健康饮食做出贡献。

而且，建议减少 UPF 的摄入可能会使人们避开这些有益的食物。

习惯

专家分析了美国从 1980 年代到 2020 年代 200,000 多人的数据。

他们根据饮食习惯被分为四组。

第一组是健康/超加工类，包括植物奶和酸奶。第二组是健康/极低加工类，包括新鲜水果和坚果。第三组是不健康/超加工类，包括快餐和碳酸饮料。第四组是不健康/极低加工类，如果汁、土豆和白米饭。

尽管天气炎热，农舍派的销量依然飙升

夏季派热潮是“安慰加热”

作者：JOSIE CLARKE

热农舍派 (Cottage pie) 成为了这个酷暑中一个令人意外的食物趋势。

Waitrose 报告称，尽管遭遇热浪，但派、奶油焗菜和浓郁红葡萄酒等传统的冬季安慰食物的销量正在激增。

该杂货商指出，农舍派的销量增加了 110%，而鸡肉火腿焗菜和南非红葡萄酒在过去一个月中均上涨了 68%。

在 waitrose.com 上搜索意式肉酱面、蟾蜍洞 (toad in the hole) 和芝士通心粉食谱的次数分别增长了 91%、67% 和 57%。

高管们表示，顾客出现了“菲塔奶酪疲劳” (feta fatigue) 的迹象——他们跳过了夏季沙拉，转而选择寒冷天气的安慰食物。

Waitrose 高级创新主厨 Stephen Parkins-Knight 表示：“当热浪袭来时，生沙拉和冷盘往往很快就失去了吸引力。在被高温折磨一整天后，人们渴望浓郁、踏实的主食来充电，重新转向安慰感和熟悉感。”

接地气且

充满力量的蜘蛛侠

在典型的漫威电影宇宙动作戏和客串之余，汤姆·霍兰德的第四部漫威个人电影是最接地气、最成熟且极具情感冲击力的。

汤姆·霍兰德、他的妻子赞达亚以及乔·伯恩萨尔主演了克里斯托弗·诺兰的《奥德赛》，这部大片在两周前上映后，注定将成为今年最成功的十亿美元票房电影之一。

而现在，如果分析师的预测准确，这三人组明天就将再次出现在大银幕上，出演《蜘蛛侠：崭新之日》（Spider-Man: Brand New Day）。这部漫威续集有望与票房巨头《复仇者联盟4：终局之战》的 $2.7 十亿美金相媲美。

这绝对是一对处于事业巅峰的好莱坞年轻夫妇！

在《蜘蛛侠：英雄无归》那场跨越多元宇宙的闹剧五年后，霍兰德饰演的“蛛网射手”迎来了创纪录的第四部个人电影。

前任彼得·帕克饰演者托比·马奎尔和安德鲁·加菲尔德与来自他们电影中的五个反派共同出现，在一场规模宏大的

充满怀旧气息的盛宴中。2021 年的电影以霍兰德饰演的彼得不得不做出一个痛苦的选择而告终：让奇异博士施展咒语，使包括赞达亚饰演的 MJ 在内的所有亲近之人忘记他，让蜘蛛侠再次变得无名。

《崭新之日》向我们介绍了一个孤独的彼得，他正专注于做一个亲切的邻居蜘蛛侠。

在《尚气》导演丁 the 斯汀·丹尼尔·克雷顿的帮助下，漫威粉丝们将看到一个更加接地气、在纽约市打击犯罪的蜘蛛侠。在经历了《英雄无归》的宏大规模后，这是一个大胆且明智的举措。

超级英雄在纽约街头与忍者组织“手”战斗

孤独，成熟，动人的冲击

霍兰德承认，他通过 Reddit 论坛研究了粉丝们希望在一部新蜘蛛侠电影中看到的内容，并将这些想法提交给了索尼。

除了对战迈克尔·曼多饰演的蝎子（这个角色在十年前的一个片尾彩蛋中就已出现预告）之外，彼得感到极度的孤独，并为失去与内德的友谊以及与女友 MJ 的关系而哀悼。

情感

在漫威系列电影中，他失去了父母、姑姑、叔叔以及像托尼·斯塔克这样的多位父亲形象，你会认为这个孩子应该休息一下了？

彼得仅在马克·鲁法洛饰演的布鲁斯·班纳和伯恩萨尔饰演的惩罚者身上找到了浅层的父辈慰藉，因为《崭新之日》更多地将重点放在蜘蛛侠这个“人”身上，而不是他所执行的任务或对抗的反派。

与之前的作品相比，这是一部情感极其丰富且成熟的电影，部分原因是他已经成长为一个在高中毕业后完全独立生活的男人。电影的核心是彼得与悲伤和创伤的斗争，这是他与外表粗犷的惩罚者共同点，而且事实证明，他与在片中饰演关键反派、表现出色的《怪奇物语》演员萨迪·辛克也有共同之处。

虽然用一个更内省的故事来接续《英雄无归》中那些轰炸式的外部危机令人耳目一新，但在动作场面上，漫威最擅长的东西依然不少。

蜘蛛侠与经典形态的绿巨人（这是 MCU 十多年来未见的形态）在摩天大楼中的打斗场面是一个格外刺激的高光时刻，而佛罗伦斯·普尤饰演的叶莲娜则提供了她一贯古灵精怪的幽默金句。

霍兰德的蜘蛛侠是否会在今年晚些时候的《复仇者联盟：末日》中出现仍是未知数，但你可以打赌，他短期内不会脱掉他的超级英雄制服。

为野生动物提供花园遮荫

园艺爱好者们被敦促为努力消暑的野生动物创建遮荫空间，因为在今年的第四波热浪中，今天的气温预计将飙升至 35C。

皇家防止虐待动物协会（RSPCA）表示，在这个酷热的夏天，由于许多狐狸和刺猬因中暑而被送入动物救援中心，目前救援中心已满负荷运转。

气象局关于本月至今的初步数据显示，5 月和 6 月的气温打破了记录，而 7 月则比平均值高出 3C。

RSPCA 的 Amy Ockelford 表示，野生动物中心正处于“最高负荷”运转状态，接纳的小豪猪（hoglets）和刺猬数量有所增加。

她补充道：“这些动物通常不在白天活动，但由于它们难以找到食物和水而外出，结果导致中暑。”

这位 RSPCA 的员工鼓励人们在关注宠物的同时也要考虑野生动物，并补充道：“为野生动物准备干净、凉爽的水，并尽量为它们创造遮荫区域，以避免

直射阳光。”她建议人们在看到野生动物陷入困境时联系 RSPCA。

兽医团体 Inspiring Vet Care 最近的研究发现，今年 6 月其诊所治疗了 179 例疑似中暑病例——比两年前同月治疗的 108 例高出 66%。

与此同时，皇家公园（Royal Parks）的工作人员接到建议，不要将躺椅放在树下，因为担心炎热天气会导致树枝掉落。

该慈善机构负责管理包括伦敦市中心的海德公园和肯辛顿花园在内的绿地，并表示这一措施是一项“额外的预防措施”。

英国卫生安全局已向东米德兰兹、英格兰东部、东南部和伦敦发布直至明天的橙色高温健康警报，警告健康风险增加，尤其是对于脆弱群体。

据信，在 5 月和 6 月的热浪中，约有 2,700 人死于与高温相关的原因。

脆弱群体

Age UK 的 Sophie Barrett 表示，85 岁以上的老年人占这些死亡人数的 60% 以上。

她警告说，老年人的身体更难调节体温。

Age UK 建议那些对高温敏感的人在一天中最热的时段不要外出，应拉上窗帘和百叶窗，并大量饮水，以及采取其他措施。

对于 Wyndham Stokes 来说，家就是艺术所在，他在自家的房屋正面绘制了一幅壮观的野生动物壁画。

这位单一名父亲出生在这栋半独立屋中并一直居住于此，他想让房子看起来“有点不同”。

因此，他请当地壁画艺术家 Matt Dey 以自然为主题改造正面，但给了对方完全的设计自由。

他唯一的请求是

加入红鸢，其剪影可见于右上角。

Matt 花了五天时间设计并绘制壁画，使用丙烯喷漆将他的愿景变为现实，期间在好奇邻居的注视下工作，并克服了他对高度的恐惧。

除了红鸢，壁画中还包括一只知更鸟、一只蓝山雀和一只兔子。59, 岁的 Wyndham 在南威尔士特雷哈里斯（Treharris）的前花园里摆放了桌椅，以便欣赏壁画。

他说道：“看着它非常惬意。有些车专门停下来，就是为了亲眼看看它。”

51, 岁的 Matt 说：“这就像在金鱼缸里画画一样！”

“整个村子都在看——必须画得精准无误！”

现在 Wyndham 已请求他绘制房屋的其余部分，预计将在夏季结束前完成。

草案

THE 镜头钟情于玛丽莲·梦露 (Marilyn Monroe)，而她也同样热爱镜头。现在，她与一位特定摄影师的友谊在他新出版的书中揭晓。89 岁的劳伦斯·席勒 (Lawrence Schiller) 在 1960 年首次遇见她，当时她已经是世界上最著名且被拍摄次数最多的女性之一。

在拍摄浪漫喜剧《让我们相爱吧》(Let's Make Love) 期间，在她的化妆间进行一次拍摄对玛丽莲来说可能没什么大不了。

但对劳伦斯来说却不同。他回忆道：“当我开车进入洛杉矶的 20 世纪福克斯影业工作室停车场时，我一直告诉自己这只是另一项任务。但事实并非如此。几分钟后，我就要见到玛丽莲·梦露了。我很兴奋，但我尽量不表现出来。”

玛丽莲出现了，穿着一件黑色紧身衣和长筒袜。现居加利福尼亚州的劳伦斯说：“她的脸像丝绸床单一样柔软，但她的表情却显示出她难以接近。她经过我身边时，仿佛我根本不在那里。”

“这是拉里，”公关人员说，“他来自《Look》杂志。他会在这里待几天。”玛丽莲停了下来。出乎意料地，她的眼睛亮了起来。“嗨，来自《Look》的拉里。我是玛丽莲，”她说。

“而我是大灰狼，”我回答道。

“我完全不知道这话从哪来的，这让我比之前更加紧张。我伸出手想和她握手，挂在我脖子上的三台相机互相撞在了一起。玛丽莲突然

作者：Hannah Britt

笑了起来。“你看起来太年轻，不像那么坏，”她说。

劳伦斯完全失去了冷静，他对这位《热情之吻》(Some Like It Hot) 的明星说：“你已经成名了，现在你将让我成名。”

拍摄像往常一样开始。但劳伦斯身上的某些特质让玛丽莲敞开了心扉。

“你拍摄时没有闭上一只眼睛，”他记得她说。

他向玛丽莲解释了童年的一次意外如何导致他的左眼失明，并说：“她脸上的表情从好奇变成了关切。随着我故事细节的展开，玛丽莲的态度似乎发生了转变。”

“她张开嘴，我看到了她的牙齿多么完美。她的眼神变得温暖且含泪，就好像我所描述的事情给了她安慰。这是一种奇怪的反应，我当时并不理解。直到很多年后，我才意识到生命中的某些问题根本没有答案。”

劳伦斯记录了约翰·肯尼迪 (John F Kennedy) 遇刺后的混乱局面，并拍摄了拳击台上的穆罕默德·阿里 (Muhammad Ali)。他的新书《玛丽莲与我》(Marilyn & Me) 在她诞辰一百周年之际发行。

T其中包含玛丽莲在拍摄《Something's Got to Give》时在游泳池中的照片，如果她还活着，在6月 1, 将满100岁。由于她于1962年8月在36岁时去世，该片未能完成。

在回忆她是一个“拍摄之梦”时，他说：“玛丽莲对我拍的照片拥有最终审核权。她说，‘那个角度对我来说不是最好的。如果你走到那边……’——她轻微地倾斜头部，指向左侧的一个位置——‘你会拍到更好的照片，因为光线会更好。’我移到了她建议的位置，就在那一刻，她将头向我的方向转了半圈。她越过左肩看向我，闪现出一个腼腆的微笑，这让我了解了关于玛丽莲·梦露所需知道的一切。她知道自己是谁，她知道我是谁，她知道该怎么做，而且她对光线的理解可能比我还好。”

有一天，劳伦斯满怀热情地提前到达了电影拍摄现场。但玛丽莲却不见踪影。

他说：“每个人都站在周围。玛丽莲在她的化妆间里，门关着。过了一个小时。两个。三个。”

“我很快发现她遵循自己的时间表。对她来说，是否有时间表，或者她的延误让制片厂损失更多钱，似乎并不重要。”

“正如我后来得知的那样，她认为自己的薪酬过低，并且多年来一直与福克斯公司（Fox）作斗争。传闻认为，她觉得制片厂不尊重她作为演员的才华，并且她觉得福克斯公司对待她不公平。”

“我读到过，在她在1953, 拍摄的《金发尤物》（Gentlemen Prefer Blondes）中， June Russell 得到了 $200,000 的报酬，而玛丽莲——电影标题中所指的金发女郎——在整部电影中仅赚了约 $15,000。”

直到下午时分，玛丽莲才出现，身穿一件惊艳的白色礼服。

劳伦斯说：“她的面容像早晨一样清新。我一边后退一边给她拍照。‘你最好小心点，’她警告道，‘你会摔跤的’”

难以置信

玛丽告诉他：“我很庆幸你没有准备 105 根蜡烛。我没那么大的肺活量来吹熄它们！”

养老院的工作人员曾公开呼吁人们为玛丽寄贺卡，于是世界各地的人们纷纷寄来贺卡，其中最远的一封来自新加坡。

她说阅读这些贺卡的时间非常“美妙”，并补充道：“这简直难以置信！我从未见过这么多贺卡，而且全都是给我的。”

玛丽出生于韩国，年轻时曾在多个国家生活，包括英国、加拿大和美国。

她后来加入了英国皇家海军，在华盛顿特区驻扎期间结识了她的丈夫——英国陆军军官查尔斯·韦纳德·戴维森·史密斯（Charles Wynard Davidson Smith）。

这对夫妇定居在爱丁堡，

作者：NEIL POORAN

他们在那里抚养了两个儿子，尼尔（Neil）和马克（Mark）。玛丽现在是一名寡妇，有四个孙辈。

最近，她与一件她在近 100 年前少女时代穿过的韩国服饰重逢了。

在一次对苏格兰国家博物馆的私人参观中，工作人员向她展示了韩服（hanbok）——一种由帽子、包和被称为 chimageogori 的围裹式外套组成的传统服装。

养老院经理苏珊·威尔士（Suzanne Welsh）表示：“庆祝玛丽 105 岁生日是一件真正令人愉快的事情。”

“她是一位深受喜爱的住院老人，总是分享许多关于她非凡生活的精彩故事。”

“玛丽是 Murrayside 大家庭的重要一份子，且总是热衷于参加活动，无论是户外活动、教会活动还是问答比赛。她还喜欢参加唱歌活动，并在咖啡早茶会上与朋友聚会。”

她补充道：“我们致力于确保住户能够继续过上充实且令人兴奋的生活。”

“团队对于达到了 105 张贺卡的目标感到超级高兴。玛丽收到来自全世界人们的如此多爱意和美好祝愿，感到欣喜万分。”

“为玛丽干杯！”

当被问到长寿的秘诀时，玛丽说：“我享受生活 [并且] 坚持走下去。”她补充说，她来自一个“长寿基因深厚的家族”。

81 岁赢得布克奖是一个新颖的主意

备受赞誉的科幻与奇幻作家 M. 约翰·哈里森（M. John Harrison）首次获得布克奖提名，并有可能成为该奖项年龄最大的获奖者。

这位 81 岁的英国人以《Viricinium》系列而闻名，并凭借《The End Of Everything》入围长名单。

在其他 12 位入围长名单的作者中，包括新人 Djamel White、Kenan Orhan 和 Rebecca Perry。名单中还包括三次被提名的伊丽莎白·斯特劳特（Elizabeth Strout）和之前的获奖者马里昂·詹姆斯（Marion James）。同样是获奖者的道格拉斯·斯图尔特（Douglas Stuart）也在竞争之列。

六位作者的短名单将于 9 月公布，获奖者将于 11 月 9 日揭晓。

由于野火持续干扰旅行计划，前往法国或西班牙的英国人被敦促在取消假期前检查自己的权利。专家表示，夏季热浪造成了破坏，也可能威胁到旅行计划，因此权衡选择并避免鲁莽决定至关重要。Urban Jungle 的首席保险官 Stephen Cowap 表示，对于任何寻求退款的人来说，航空公司、酒店或旅行社通常应该是首选联系对象。

“如果他们因为火灾而取消或更改您的行程，那么您应该首先联系他们。”

他敦促旅行者密切关注外交、联邦和发展事务部 (FCDO) 的最新建议，因为违反官方建议出行可能会导致保险失效。Cowap 表示，旅行保险旨在涵盖在国外的医疗紧急情况。“如果任何旅行者受到火灾影响并需要医疗照顾，他们的保单通常会涵盖此项。”

Compare The Market 的旅行保险专家 Emily Barnett 表示，保险单可能还涵盖部分取消或中断的费用。

“保障程度取决于保单，因此请仔细检查条款，然后联系您的保险公司。”

Barnett 表示，火灾凸显了在预订假期时购买旅行保险的重要性。“如果您在某个事件（如野火）广为人知之后才购买保险，您不太可能获得任何中断补偿。”

跟团度假者拥有额外的保障。保险公司 CoverForYou 的董事总经理 Alan Dean 表示：“如果您预订的是跟团度假，您的旅行社负责管理您假期的任何重大中断，因此请联系他们。”

选项可能包括替代假期、更改预订或退款。Dean 补充说，分开预订机票和住宿的人应分别联系每个供应商。

他警告说，如果 FCDO 没有发出旅行警告，但您因为担心野火而决定不去，这通常被视为“不愿旅行”，您的保险单通常不会赔付。

Transfeero 的旅行专家 Manuela Savoca 敦促旅行者保留所有收据并记录意外费用，包括食物、住宿、出租车和替代交通工具。根据具体情况和您的保障范围，航空公司或保险公司可能会分担部分费用。

她还建议检查替代机场和交通选项；如果抵达时间发生变化，请联系酒店和租车公司；在自行支付住宿或交通费用前，检查航空公司提供的援助服务。

“航班中断不仅仅是浪费时间。如果旅行者不记录沿途产生的意外成本，费用会迅速增加。”

额外的机场接送、增加的酒店住宿天数、餐饮和替代交通工具都会累积。错过的游览项目或景点也可能是可以退款或重新预订的，因此在放弃之前请咨询供应商或您的保险公司。

降低一次性养老金税单的五种方法

编辑：HARVEY JONES

养老金领取者收到警告，在从退休金账户中提取大额款项时，他们可能面临高达数万英镑的税单。去年，在兑现价值超过 £250,000 的养老金账户后，近 400 名退休人员支付了近 £100,000 的税款。

在完全兑现养老金账户后的短短六个月内，退休人员向 HMRC 缴纳了至少 £87million，一年内增长了 20% 以上。

根据 Standard Life 的最新研究，在一次性提取养老金后，另有数千人可能面临五位数的税单。

Standard Life 退休储蓄总监 Mike Ambery 警告说，提取大额一次性款项可能会使人们进入更高的税档，从而导致税单比预期大得多。这些基于金融行为监管局（Financial Conduct Authority）截至 2025 年 3 月六个月数据的结果显示，有 392 人完全兑现了价值至少 £250,000 的养老金账户，每人触发的估计最低所得税税单为 £98,700。

另有 1,772 人完全兑现了价值在 £100,000 至 £249,000 之间的账户，每人至少缴纳 £27,400 的税款。

这些是最低估计值，且仅涵盖了完全提取价值 £100,000 或以上养老金账户的人员。

Ambery 表示，预先提取较大金额对许多人来说似乎是最简单的选择。“但它可能会带来意外的打击，即一份高于预期的税单。”

通常情况下，您可以免税提取养老金的 25%，但受限于 £268,275 的标准一次性领取额度。进一步的养老金提取通常被视为收入并征税。“让人们措手不及的是，单次提取如何能迅速将他们推入 40% 甚至 45% 的高税档，”Ambery 说道。

他提出了限制面临不必要的高额税单风险的五种方法。

1 注意您的税档。大额养老金提取加上您的国家养老金、收入或其他收入可能会使您进入更高税率。将提取金额分散在不同的纳税年度有助于管理您的税务状况。

2 将国家养老金考虑在内。这计入您的应纳税所得额，并会占用部分或全部 £12,570 的免税额度。这可能会减少从私人养老金中提取资金时的免税空间。

3 不要假设您必须一次性提取养老金。较小额度的提取可以让您更好地控制应纳税所得额，并减少进入高税档的金额。

4 谨慎使用免税现金。您不必预先提取全部 25% 的免税现金。您可以将其分散在数年内提取。 5 在做出重大决定前先暂停考虑。提取应税收入可能会触发年度资金购买津贴（Money Purchase Annual Allowance），这将使您随后在享受税收减免的情况下，每年向定义缴款养老金计划（defined contribution pension）缴纳的金额上限降低至仅 £10,000。

Ambery 表示，从明年 4 月起，税务规划将变得更加重要，届时养老金在去世时可能会被征收遗产税。

提取资金可能有助于您避免遗产税（IHT），但风险在于这仅仅会触发一份所得税税单。

任何人在今年夏天访问英国海滨时，若被购买海滨小屋的想法所吸引，必须保持冷静，因为价格仍在持续下跌。

尽管大多数海滨小屋没有任何煤气、电、厕所设施或自来水，而且通常法律禁止在其中过夜，但其价格仍可高达六位数。

在多塞特郡的 Mudeford Spit，由于新冠疫情期间居家度假热潮导致价值飙升，2021 年甚至有一处被挂牌价定为 £575,000。

然而，Yopa 的新研究显示，随着疫情热潮的持续消退，价格已连续第二年下降。过去一年平均价值下降了 9.8%，而前一年则经历了更大规模的 19.6% 下跌。

尽管近期市场有所回调，但这些糖果色小屋的价值仍比 2022 年高出 7%。

西萨塞克斯郡（West Sussex）的年度价格跌幅最大，价值在过去一年中下降了 35%，从 £33,044 降至 £21,444。

诺福克郡（Norfolk）的价格下跌了 13%，从 £19,251 降至 £16,743，而埃塞克斯郡（Essex）和汉普郡（Hampshire）均经历了约 12% 的下跌，分别降至 £40,298 和 £28,727。

多塞特郡（Dorset）拥有迄今为止最昂贵的海滩

海边小屋市场由盛转衰

小屋及价格在一年内实际上涨了 2.8%，平均达到 £105,343。

Yopa 首席执行官 Verona Frankish 表示，由于买家在封锁期间抢购海滨生活的一席之地，价格一度飙升，但现在这种情况正在逆转：“虽然需求依然强劲，但它们最终属于非必需消费品，且随着整个房地产市场的信心低迷，我们看到价值有所下降也就不足为奇了。”

然而，价格仍高于疫情前的大爆发时期，近期的下跌可能提供了一个购买机会。Frankish 表示：“在经历了两年价格下跌之后，这可能是进入下一个市场周期前一个具有吸引力的投资点。”

英国无法承受将社会护理问题搁置

新任首相 Andy Burnham 是最新一名承诺改革英国崩溃的社会护理体系的政治家。政治家们在近 30 年里一直承诺进行改变，但该问题依然顽固地未能解决。

AJ Bell 的个人财务负责人 Sarah Coles 表示，社会护理改革在近 30 年里一直处于“即将实现”的状态：“托尼·布莱尔在 1997 年的工党会议上告诉大家，这个问题需要紧急处理。”

自 1997 年以来，已经出现了 20 多个社会护理委员会、调查和白皮书。提案中包括免费的个人护理和护理成本的终身上限，但由于成本巨大，政府多次推迟或放弃改革。Coles 表示：“因此，虽然我们可以希望快速改变，但为了以防万一，拥有自己的安全网也是合理的。”

目前英格兰的资产调查标准仍基于自 2010. 年起冻结的阈值。资产低于 £14,250 的任何人其护理费用由政府承担，而资产在 £14,250 到 £23,250 之间的人则可获得部分支持。

Coles 表示，目前值得为仍需自行资助护理的可能性做准备。“如果你假设在最终需要更多支持时会有家庭成员介入，那么你需要沟通。”

“确认这是否现实，或者你是否需要考虑更正式的护理。”

建立一个覆盖一到三年基本开支的应急基金可以提供缓冲。计划更长远的人可以考虑投资 5 到 10 年或更长时间，而养老金储蓄者可以选择拨出一部分资金。你可能需要通过出售房屋、出租、房屋权益释放或

延期付款协议来利用你的房产。Coles 表示，另一种选择是长期护理年金，它可以为护理费用提供保障性收入。

一个更简单的缓解更年期方法

“全合一”的便捷性使 Menopause Vitamin Company 脱颖而出，因为它在女性生命中一个艰难的时期，帮助她们更轻松地管理健康。

通过其 Vibrancy Blend 品牌，它将 26 种维生素和矿物质以及植物提取物整合在仅需每日服用一次的产品中。

“女性不需要在拥挤、混乱且有时具有误导性的补充剂市场中摸索，”创始人 Melissa Dickinson 解释道，她与一名领先的营养学家共同开发了该配方。

雌激素水平降低会干扰体温，虽然 Vibrancy Blend 并非治疗潮热的医疗手段，但它确实有助于身体达到平衡。

MVC 的催化剂是 Dickinson 本人对更年期症状的经历以及在寻找可靠解决方案时的挣扎。在五年前启动该业务后，这位款待业专家在 2023 年通过职业转变，将其转为全职经营。

“为了维持这个梦想，我还曾在一家婚纱店兼职，并组织当地的婚礼展。这是我承担过的最大风险之一，但也是我做出的最正确的决定之一，”她回忆道。

目前，这家总部位于伊普斯威奇（Ipswich）的 MVC 已实现盈利，预计明年营业额将达到 £100,000，增长率为 25%。产品由英国境内受医学监管的制造商生产，许多成分也采购自国内——这些因素也深受客户认可。

今年，该配方进行了升级，加入了更高吸收率的 B 族维生素和更高浓度的保湿透明质酸。Dickinson 用 £20,000 自筹资金启动了这家初创公司，同时还接受了培训，成为一名更年期健康执业者。

“我现在提供一对一支持、职场教育并在女性健康活动中发表演讲。多样性增强了公司的韧性，”她补充道。

“这一直不仅仅关乎补充剂，而是帮助女性在经常被误解的时期被看见、被倾听和获得支持。正是这种品质与支持的结合，产生了最强烈的共鸣。”

除了预期的 45 到 60 岁客户外，由于更多女性更早地经历更年期且意识有所提高，年龄范围已经扩大。

在网站上引入订阅模式已成为“增长的转折点”，但如果 Dickinson 希望自己早一点做的一件事，那就是投资数字营销技能。

作为 Starling Bank 的企业客户，她反思道：“完成其 Female Founder Fundamentals Programme（女性创始人基础计划）让我意识到这些技能对于小企业来说有多么强大。课程简洁且有针对性，非常适合想要提升技能但时间匮乏的所有者。”

她的下一步计划是在接下来的 18 个月内，通过互补的 omega-3 和镁产品来扩大产品范围，并继续增加与健康及美容诊所的批发合作伙伴关系。

“这关乎对个人的影响，而不是为了攫取更年期的利润，”Dickinson 声明道。

快速搬迁的助力

PRIME Minister Andy Burnham 承诺将建设市政房屋（council houses）作为首要任务，这看似反直觉，但实际上可能会为希望在不久的将来购买自己房屋的人带来巨大的推动。这是因为公共住房将为建筑商提供生存所需的收入流，同时在私人住房建设快速下降的时期，挽救行业内的技术岗位。

房地产专家 Savills 的专家表示，预计在 2024/2025 和 2029/2030 年间在英格兰完工的新房平均仅为政府每年 300,000 套目标的一半多，且新规划许可在三年内下降了 39%。

与建筑速度放缓同样关键的是材料成本的上涨以及由战争引起的经济不确定性，这就是为什么今年春季新建筑开发启动量减半——这是自 2020 年新冠疫情导致建筑工作停滞以来的最大跌幅。当销售额下降时，开发商通过简单地减少产量来控制新建房屋的供应，因为他们需要保持价格稳定，以覆盖高昂的土地成本和漫长的规划流程。

但对于现在寻求购房的人来说，有一线希望，那就是用于清理未售库存的特惠活动和激励措施的增加。

需要关注的激励措施包括首付款贡献——通常为 5-10%——以及印花税支持，但如果你急于搬迁，“以房换房”（part exchange）也可能非常有帮助。

Sandra Witherden 利用 Lovell Homes 的“Helping Hands”计划寻找买家，她搬到了位于北约克郡斯卡伯勒（Scarborough）的 Sandcastles 55岁以上人士开发项目的一座新平房中，以实现她在海边退休的梦想。

这位 64 岁的前公务员在 2023 年决定她准备好享受更悠闲的生活，并决定在建筑开工前购买期房，

这让她有机会选择厨房单元和全屋地板。

而“Helping Hands”计划意味着 Sandra 在建筑完工后能够快速搬迁。

“Lovell Homes 与当地房产中介联络，为客户的现有房屋约定估价并快速寻找买家，”她解释道。“他们支付中介费，并与中介合作直到销售完成。”

Sandra 特别喜欢住在新建房屋中，因为这是一个没有维护问题的空白画布：“房间很漂亮，尺寸方正，没有阴暗角落，所以非常容易打理和保持清洁。它非常节能，我的屋顶上安装了太阳能电池板，我非常喜欢。这是一个我可以完全打造属于自己的美好空间。”

Sandcastles 位于斯卡伯勒郊区，有定期的巴士服务。

该项目专为 55 岁以上人士设计，但没有管理费，两居室和三居室的平房及小型房屋均为永久产权（freehold）。该地块内有建设养老院的计划。

价格范围从 £235,000 到 £399,950（01723 628156; newhomes.lovell.co.uk）。

今日电视推荐

由电视评论员 MIKE WARD 撰写

今日精选

EXTRAORDINARY EXTENSIONS, CHANNEL 4, 晚上 8 点

修复店 (THE REPAIR SHOP), R0C1, 8PM

我们在《修复店》中很少听到唱歌，但乐器修复师 Julyan Wallis 很高兴能获得表演的机会。他刚刚让一把旧的 mandriola 重新焕发生机，这把琴曾属于 Teesside 民俗音乐传奇人物 Vin Garbutt。将琴送来的两人——Vin 的儿子 Tim 和家庭朋友 Maggie——对此感到非常激动，以至于邀请他带领他们演奏 Vin 的一首歌曲。

噢，如果你好奇的话，mandriola 是一种曼陀林，但它有 12 根弦而不是八根。当这把琴被送到谷仓时，它实际上根本没有弦，我想这大概没起到什么帮助。

活生生地死去 (LIVE AND LET DIE), ITY1, 10, 45PM

由 Paul McCartney 创作的这部电影主题曲（这是 Roger Moore 首次饰演 007）曾一度是历史上最畅销的邦德主题曲。

Duran Duran 的《A View To A Kill》在 1985, 年将其超越，随后 Adele 在 2012, 年凭借《Skyfall》占据了顶端之位——但说实话，这两位篡位者都没有那么令人振奋。

我的意思是，它们都无法让你跟着一起唱并在床上跳来跳去，就像 Alan Partridge 在 Linton Travel Tavern 随着《Jet》起舞那样。或者像我一样。

至于这部电影，现在看来有些片段可能被认为政治不正确，但为其辩护的话，这些片段只出现在片头标题和结尾之间。

超前于曲线的装饰艺术 (DECO THAT'S AHEAD OF THE CURVE)

这里有一个词在这个节目中出现得相当频繁。所谓“相当频繁”，是指在不到一小时的时间里出现了 27 次。没错，我确实记录了次数，我正式成为了一个怪人。

我所指的那个词是……嗯，你觉得会是什么？

考虑到本系列的主题（今晚将进行第二次播出），你想大胆猜测一下吗？

记得，这个节目再次由 Tinie Tempah 主持，全部关于人们以惊人的规模扩建家园。

那么，这个经常重复的词也许是“ambitious”（有野心的）？或者“extravagant”（奢侈的）？或者“insane”（疯狂的）？

是的，确实，可能是其中任何一个。但它不是。

不，你今晚大约每 30 秒会听到一次的词是……“curve”（曲线）。

要么是这个，要么是 “curves”, “curved”, “curvy”, “curving”。没什么区别。

你会这么频繁地听到它，是因为 Tinie 参观的房屋之一——位于西伦敦的一栋排屋（“你这里的爱德华时代寓所相当不错，”他观察到）——正在进行一次装饰艺术（art deco）改造。装饰艺术使用曲线的频率之高，就像它们快要过时了一样。或者可能是正重新流行起来。

房主，快餐企业家 Chris 和健康经济学家 Nadine（职业组合很有意思），是《了不起的盖茨比》的忠实粉丝，因此他们希望他们的寓所至少有一部分能体现这一点。

但当 Chris 开始揭晓他们的宏伟计划——从“一个惊人的曲线装饰艺术楼梯”开始时，Tinie 撇了撇嘴。

不是那种吐舌头或让眉毛跳舞的表情（尽管我希望在未来的剧集中看到他这么做），而是一种表达担忧的表情。

“一旦我听到‘curve’这个词，”他警告道，“我就开始考虑成本。”

然而，Tinie 不需要担心。事实证明，成本是 Chris 和 Nadine 已经考虑过的事情。因此，这就是他们心中预想的总预算。Chris 说：“我们在谈论 £325,000 到 £350,000。” Nadine 说：“我们在考虑 £400,000 到 £450,000。”

所以这预兆很好，不是吗？

我刚刚数了数“communicate”（沟通）这个词在这个剧集里出现了多少次。

结果是，一次也没有。

最佳真人秀

警车巡逻队 (CAR POUND COPS) 5, 1PM

今晚，一名四轮摩托车骑手因缺少号牌被拦下。与此同时，一名警佐处理一起严重事件，导致了一场午夜追逐。

最佳剧集

未宣战的 WAC (THE UNBECLARED WAC) 6, 1PM

Barbara 与 Danny 的关系似乎达到了临界点，因为 Danny 对她反复无常的行为感到担忧，而她则试图再次寻找她的前任情人。

BEST DOC

BERKE, JACOBI REMEMBERS 1 CLAUDIOS WSC 4, 8PM

这位 87 岁的演员回忆起与 Brian Blessed、John Hurt、Patrick Stewart 和 Sian Phillips 等人共同拍摄这部具有里程碑意义的 1976 年、13 集历史剧的经历。

BEST SPORT

COMMONWEALTH GAMES 2026 5, 8PM

一个被诱骗的女儿 一个无力阻止的父亲

绿党只在为奈杰准备断头台

随着扎克·波兰斯基（Zack Polanski）在社交媒体上分享一张白痴穿着印有断头台T恤的照片，并暗示这将用于奈杰·法拉奇（Nigel Farage），有几件事让我深有感触（见《法拉奇在令人作呕的Instagram帖子后痛击波兰斯基并要求将其逮捕》，7月 27））。

这个白痴在安·威迪科姆（Ann Widdicombe）去世后分享这张照片竟然毫无羞耻心，而且我想绿党应该是反对死刑的。

绿党不再是一个拥抱树木的嬉皮士政党，它现在极其危险。

约翰·肯尼迪（John Kennedy）， 埃塞克斯郡，霍恩丘奇（Hornchurch, Essex）

歹徒逍遥法外，警察却挥霍 £63lm 用于多样性

向我们的警队表示“祝贺”。据估计，自 2020 年以来，他们在多样性、平等和包容性活动上花费了 £63lm（见《警方在多样性计划上“浪费”数百万英镑》，7月 27 ）。与此同时，诱拐团伙、持刀罪犯、强奸犯和毒贩在我们的社会中依然活跃。

萨缪尔·法鲁克（Samuel Farooq）， 南伦敦，图廷（Tooting, South London）

通过将所有非法移民遣返回国来确保我们的安全

我们经常听到政客们自豪地宣称，“任何政府的首要

今日来信

前坎特伯雷大主教贾斯汀·韦尔比（Justin Welby）

我们已经废除了奴隶制——那么为什么还要付钱？

如果能知道那些向募捐盘捐款的人对安妮女王赠款基金（Queen Anne's Bounty fund）了解多少，将会很有趣。他们是否接受现金被转移到“受影响社区”的口袋里（见《£100 million 教会奴隶制赔偿被贴上“严重的判断失误”标签》，7月 27 ）？

想出这个离谱噱头的人似乎忽略了这样一个事实：奴隶贸易在 1800 年代初期在这里被废除了，但在其他地方又繁荣了一个世纪。

这一政策是通过贾斯汀·韦尔比实施的，他作为坎特伯雷大主教在处理性不端行为方面未能采取行动，但却乐于在这种事情上浪费时间。新任大主教莎拉·穆拉利女爵士（Dame Sarah Mullally）已拒绝取消该政策。

巴里·沃伦（Barrie Warren）， 兰开夏郡，贝里（Bury, Lancs）

职责就是确保其人口的安全。”

然而，考虑到英国发生的暴力犯罪数量，允许数千名非法移民在我们的城镇和城市中自由游荡，难道不是一种严重的失职吗（见《拉米离职必须结束对移民犯罪的掩盖》，7月 22 ）？我们迟钝的公务员系统处理他们并将其遣返回原籍国需要花费极长的时间。

理查德·伯里奇（Richard Burridge）， 牛津郡，惠特利（Wheatley, Oxon）

伯纳姆的“大多数”是宽一英里但深一英寸

安迪·伯纳姆（Andy Burnham）说大多数选民投票支持工党的竞选宣言。一个仅获得 33% 投票人数支持的政党，怎么能被称为大多数（见《伯纳姆：不提前大选》，7月 27 ）？

艾伦·霍默（Alan Homer）， 东伦敦，达根纳姆（Dagenham, East London）

安迪的 No 10 North 是一个愚蠢且昂贵的噱头

安迪·伯纳姆是否意识到在北方设立一个 No 10 需要花费多少钱？需要所有的安保和人员。而且，它将位于一个人们结婚的建筑中，谁想在进入建筑时被武装

卫兵迎接（见《将 No 10 搬到北方并不能让决策变得更好...》，7月 25 ）？

他想成为首相，而这意味着 No 10 唐宁街。

简·查普曼（Jan Chapman）， 普雷斯顿（Preston）

英国和乌克兰领导人之间没有联系

我对英国欢迎乌克兰总统以及他没有空手而归感到高兴。正如你们的照片所示，安迪·伯纳姆和弗拉基米尔·泽连斯基之间不仅仅是对俄罗斯的厌恶——他们对联系有着类似的反感（见《伯纳姆：英国将支持乌克兰“直到问题解决”》，7月 28 ）。

通往皮丁顿的护照：当地人反抗英国

我非常感兴趣地阅读了《每日快报》关于牛津郡皮丁顿村试图宣布脱离英国独立（“在庇护计划上给我们一个发声机会”，7月27日）的报道。

作为克劳博罗的一名居民，对于庇护寻求者被安置在他们的社区一事，我深表同情。他们应该看看经典电影《通往皮姆利科的护照》，以了解宣布独立意味着什么。

停止将我们的数十亿资金投入这个 NHS 钱坑

我们被不断告知 NHS 需要更多资金。真的吗（“574 名 NHS 高管收入超过首相”，7月27日）？

事实上，它能给某些老板支付每年超过 £100,000 的薪水，给另一些人支付至少 £300,000 ——这意味着在一年内增长了 134% ——这证明不应再授予更多资金。必须在内部进行节省，以便将资金重新引导至一线工作人员。

安妮·琼斯 (Anne Jones)， 柴郡，斯塔利桥 (Stalybridge, Cheshire)

运动会是我们的遗产，而 BBC 让我们失望了

我原以为会有更强烈的抗议（“英联邦运动会开赛仅几天便引发愤怒，BBC 撤下报道”，7月24日）。这每四年才发生一次。这是我们的国家遗产，而 BBC 本应是我们旗舰级的广播公司。但在提高电视执照费这件事上，BBC 的反应倒是足够迅速。

布莱恩·卡松 (Brian Casson)， 北安，安布尔 (Amble, Northam)

F1 赔率依然不利于刘易斯·汉密尔顿和法拉利

回顾刘易斯·汉密尔顿在 2021 年 12 月的阿布扎比赛，那场比赛本可以让他在 F1 赢得第八个世界冠军，但赛会官员通过操纵安全车，仅让排在马克斯·维斯塔潘位置之前的车手恢复赛道，确保了维斯塔潘凭借一套新的软胎赢得比赛，这件事至今仍令人感到不快。

现在，F1 赛会官员似乎在严密监控汉密尔顿的一举一动，这似乎是为了确保他无法接近他的第八个冠军（“刘易斯再次被限制”，7月27日）。

约翰·福克斯 (John Fox)， 泽西岛，圣布雷拉德 (St Brelade, Jersey)

今日：星期三 2026 年 7 月 29 日

历史上的今天

61 年前 (1965) 我们的头版披露，下议院就财政大臣詹姆斯·卡拉汉的“大挤压与生活成本”问题爆发了激烈的争论。劳工大臣雷·冈特警告说，如果自愿方案失败，价格和收入可能会由法律强制控制。

在其他报道中，我们透露 Lyndon B. Johnson 总统计划向越南战争再派遣 50,000 名美国军队。到 1967 年，约有 80,000 名美国士兵在冲突中丧生。

78 年前 (1948) 伦敦奥运会在温布利球场和温布利公园的帝国泳池开幕。这是自 1936 年柏林奥运会以来的首届奥运会，由于第二次世界大战后严峻的经济形势和实施的配给制度，它被人们称为“紧缩奥运会”。

119 年前 (1907) 罗伯特·贝登-鲍尔勋爵准备在多塞特郡普尔港的布朗海岛建立第一个童军营地，从而开启了全球童军运动。来自各行各业的男孩参加了救生和领导力等挑战。

白羊座 3月 21-4月 20

周围弥漫着一种俏皮且浪漫的能量，这种能量太棒了，不应被浪费。请对笑声、创造力和恶作剧说“是”。即便如此，不要忽略工作中或日常琐事中的小摩擦——如果不管它们，它们只会继续增长。一次简单的对话就能抚平一切。对不同的观点保持开放。他人的想法可能会引导你走向一个出人意料且有回报的地方。

你的思维正向新方向延伸，而这很适合你。对话、旅行计划或新鲜的想法带来了令人愉快的扩张。尽管如此，在关系中，情绪可能会变得很明显，所以不要逃避需要面对的问题。诚实所能化解的，远比巧妙的规避要多。尝试一些不同的事物——你会享受这种转变。

巨蟹座 6月 22-7月 23

情绪在升起，但它们不是为了制造混乱而来，而是为了澄清。某些一直潜伏的问题，尤其是在亲密关系中，需要被处理。温柔地处理，但不要回避。财务或个人价值观可能会成为关注焦点，要求重新思考。慢慢来。当你诚实时，其他一切都会开始各就各位。

大规模裁员以资助 4 亿英镑巨型园区

制药巨头 GSK 正在裁员，以资助在剑桥建立一座 4 亿英镑 (£400m) 的巨型园区，该园区将容纳 1,000 多名科学家从事新疗法的研究与开发。

该公司（此前名为 GlaxoSmithKline）拒绝透露将损失多少个工作岗位，但预计这些岗位将集中在人力资源和其他支持团队中。

首席执行官 Luke Miels 在其首次重大战略更新中，公布了在牛津-剑桥走廊建设一个 300,000 平方英尺场地的计划，该场地预计将于 2029 年开放。

政府希望将该地区打造成为欧洲的“硅谷”。

Miels 先生表示：“这项投资将加速我们的 R&D（研究与开发），并帮助我们推出具有竞争力的核心新产品。它使 GSK 进一步融入全球领先的知识中心之一，并展示了英国生命科学生态系统的吸引力。”

该园区目前正在剑桥生物医学园区（Cambridge Biomedical Campus）内建设，将使其科学家能够继续专注于癌症、呼吸道疾病、肝脏病学、疫苗和艾滋病治疗。那里已有 22,000 多人工作，包括竞争对手阿斯利康（AstraZeneca）。GSK 的此举将对赫特福德郡的史蒂夫尼奇（Stevenage, Herts）造成打击，该公司在其拥有 30 年历史的 R&D 中心雇佣了 1,800 人。该中心将于 2029 年关闭，不过大多数岗位可能会转移到新中心。

与此同时，GSK 在赫特福德郡韦尔（Ware, Herts）的实验室也将得到升级。这项巨额投资表明，世界领先的英国制药业与政府之间的关系正在回暖。

今年年初，由于在国民医疗服务体系（NHS）定价机制上发生争执，阿斯利康和德国默克（Merck）取消了在这里价值数十亿英镑的扩张计划。但在 2 月，

政府同意纳税人将额外支付 10 亿英镑 (£1billion) 用于药品，促使阿斯利康修订了价值 3 亿英镑 (£300m) 的项目。

该协议还平息了美国总统唐纳德·特朗普（Donald Trump）的威胁，此前他威胁称，除非英国增加药品支出，否则将对英国的药品出口征收巨额关税。

昨天，Miels 先生还宣布对后期三期临床试验进行重大投资，将今年的试验数量从 10 个增加到 20 个。

OCADO 放弃要求 M&S 支付 1.9 亿英镑的请求

这家配送公司目前正致力于改善与 M&S 的合作伙伴关系

OCADO 在一起关于家庭配送合资企业的 1.9 亿英镑 (£190million) 纠纷中，悄然让马莎百货（Marks & Spencer）摆脱了困境。

两家公司在成立 Ocado Retail 时分别持有 50-50 的股份，M&S 为其提供食品配送服务向 Ocado 预付了 5.6 亿英镑 (£560m)。

根据目标还应支付 1.907 亿英镑 (£190.7m)，但

由于合资企业经营困难，M&S 未能支付这笔款项。

Ocado 曾威胁要起诉 M&S，但该公司现在将重点转向其“实现 Ocado Retail 潜力”的计划。

M&S 的一位发言人表示：“我们与 Ocado 保持着良好的关系——我们正共同努力，以实现合作伙伴关系的全部潜力。”

伊朗战争引发市场动荡，巴克莱银行利润上升

由于市场动荡推动其股票交易部门表现强劲，巴克莱银行（BARCLAYS）第二季度的利润超出预期。

这家富时 100 指数（FTSE 100）巨头表示，上半年税前利润同比增长 17% 至 61 亿英镑 (£6.1bn)。

投资银行部门的收入增长 20% 至 39.5 亿英镑 (£3.95bn)，因为它利用了由于伊朗冲突引起的市场波动。其股票交易部门增长 45% 至 12.6 亿英镑 (£1.26bn)。

股票方面的表现落后于华尔街的银行，后者的平均增长率为 69%。

在早盘交易中，股价下跌 4.8% 至 503.6p，但自年初以来，该股已上涨 5.1%。

交易平台 IG 的 Chris Beauchamp 表示：“由于股价处于金融危机后的高点，巴克莱银行几乎没有出错的空间，但这些结果证明该集团在今年接下来的时间里处于有利地位。”

百万富翁们在减少……且陷入困境

亚当·斯密研究所（Adam Smith Institute）报告称，英国的百万富翁人数已降至 442,000 人——这是自 2008 年金融危机以来的最低水平。

该机构认为，富人们离开不仅是因为高税率等政策选择，还提到了对财富的文化敌视。

根据该研究所的研究，由于富豪外流而导致的英国经济在增长和消费方面的损失——较 2024 年下降 7% ——在未来十年将达到 £110m。

该智库强调了近期关于“财富税”的讨论，并称这种税收在欧洲实施的地方已被证明无效。

主席詹姆斯·劳森（James Lawson）表示：“经济增长陷入低迷，增长路径依然不明；因此，英国再也无法承受以轻视的态度对待个人财富。”

GOOD EVANS

金色女孩 Ruby 成为威尔士之光

记者：CHARLIE BENNETT 愤怒的 Ruby Evans 将怒火转化为金牌，她击败了两名英格兰对手，为威尔士赢得了首个英联邦运动会冠军。

这位 19 岁的体操运动员在周日的个人全能决赛中遭遇噩梦，仅获得第六名，她在团体赛中也排在第四位，赛后一度泪崩。

但这位威尔士少年将最精彩的演出留到了最后，带来了一段令人惊叹的自由操表演，令酋长阿拉伯体育馆（Emirates Arena）的全场观众起立欢呼。

在裁判评议期间，人们经历了极度紧张的等待，随后屏幕上闪现的 13,500 分让 Evans 随即引发了疯狂的庆祝。

作为最后一名登场的体操运动员，她从英格兰的 Abi Martin (13,333) 手中夺走金牌，而 Shantae-Eve Amankwash (13,300) 获得铜牌，完成了由英国选手包揽的领奖台。

“在过去的几天里我相当愤怒，我告诉自己要走出去，全力以赴，而我确实做到了。这得到了回报，”Evans 说道。

“Abi 设定了很高的标准，Shantae 的表现也非常好。当我上场时，我真的不知道自己做得有多好。结果可能会向任何一个方向发展。”

“我觉得带着愤怒上场也有帮助。它能给你动力和激情，让你走出去并取得好成绩。”

“但今天早上，我实际上相当冷静。”

“我对自己产生的情绪感到惊讶，因为我以为我会非常紧张。”

这一结果结束了威尔士等待金牌五天的局面，这是自 2010 年（当时等待了一周）以来最长的金牌荒开局。

“当我来到这里时，我知道我需要为我的国家做点什么，那就是自由操，”她补充道。

“我非常激动能听到国歌。”

“当脑海中响起这样的曲调时，你会想：‘天呐，我太希望那样发生了。’希望能看到旗帜上的巨龙。”

“我如此激动，因为我对威尔士充满热爱。”

英格兰的 Luke Whitehouse 以为他在 24 小时内第二次夺得了英联邦运动会金牌——但裁判一个极其微小的决定让他只能获得银牌。

这位来自哈利法克斯（Halifax）的体操运动员在男子跳马决赛中仅以 0.017 分之差输给了加拿大的 Felix Dolci。这位 23 岁的选手在周一夺得自由操决赛金牌，并在周五带领英格兰队获得团体赛银牌后，带着三枚奖牌离开格拉斯哥。

“这是一场激烈的决赛。我确实以为我赢了，我想 Felix 也这么认为，”他说道。

“但一旦你完成了动作，就交由裁判决定。你完成了你的工作，由他们决定谁是赢家。我倾尽全力，结果如此接近。”

RICHARDS 因 NANDO'S 的美味而斗志昂扬

作者：WILL JENNINGS MATT RICHARDS 正期待着一场激烈的“不列颠之战”，并透露了他信任的赛前能量补给——在格拉斯哥吃一顿 Nando's 烤鸡。

这位威尔士游泳运动员昨晚赢得了英联邦运动会 100 米自由泳银牌，为今晚备受期待的决胜局做准备。

Richards（右）在状态火热的 Flynn Southam 之后获得第二名，而他的澳大利亚同胞 Kyle Chalmers 获得铜牌。今晚，Richards 将与苏格兰的 Duncan Scott 以及英格兰的 Tom Dean 和 James Guy 争夺 200 米自由泳的冠军——这四人组曾在东京和巴黎奥运会共同夺得两枚接力金牌。

这位 23 岁的选手希望坚持他尝试过且有效的饮食方案能将银牌变为金牌。当被问及如何准备时，他表示：“吃一点 Nando's ——我昨晚这么做了，今天效果很好！这应该会很有趣，而且将是一场精彩的比赛。”

“再加上几个澳大利亚选手的加入，速度将会非常快。”

Stephen Clegg 赢得了一枚令人激动的 $13 自由泳金牌。

这位两届残奥会冠军，3G，表示：“我在领奖台上非常激动，眼中含着泪水。”

Amalie Smith 在 400 米个人混合泳银牌的基础上，又增加了一枚 200 米铜牌。

喀麦隆飞人夺金并创运动会新纪录

作者：JAMES TONEY 发自格拉斯哥 喀麦隆的 Emmanuel Eseme 在雨中疾驰，以新的运动会纪录夺得 100 米短跑金牌。

他的这次破纪录冲刺成功，使其在拥有非洲冠军头衔的同时，实现了英联邦双冠。

尽管 Scotstoun 降下倾盆大雨，他仍跑出了 9.83 秒的个人最好成绩，以微弱优势击败澳大利亚的 Lachlan Kennedy，而尼日利亚的 Kayinsola Ajayi 完成了领奖台的最后一名。

威尔士短跑运动员 Jeremiah Azu 是唯一进入决赛的英国人，最终以 10.03 秒获得第五名。

Azu 表示：“我觉得自己并没有犯什么错误，所以这次失利很难接受。这些选手的速度简直快得惊人。”

“我觉得我完成了一场不错的比赛。我原以为能跑进 9.9 秒低段，我认为自己有这个能力，只是今天没能发挥出来。”

“但能代表威尔士总是令人愉悦的，始终是一项荣誉。”

Amy Hunt (10.98) 在女子 100 米比赛中在纽西兰的 Zoe Hobbs (10.93) 之后获得银牌，澳大利亚的 Torrie Lewis (10.99) 在 Imani Lansiquot 之前获得铜牌。

“火箭”折戟

RONNIE O'SULLIVAN 在上海大师赛第二轮中以 6-4 负于 Kyren Wilson，惨遭淘汰。

Wilson 先以 3-1 领先——包括单杆 113 分和 91 分——随后“火箭”（下方）以连续三个世纪分反击。

但 Wilson 连下三局，锁定八强席位。

卫冕冠军将面对 Mark Williams，后者以 6-5 击败了 Chris Wakelin。Wakelin 曾以 4-2 领先，但 Williams 通过连赢三局实现反超。

Wakelin 赢下第 10 局，将比赛拖入决胜局，最终 Williams 凭借一杆 65 分锁定胜局。

Neil Robertson 在落后的情况下以 6-5 击败肖国栋。肖国栋在第三局打出了 147 分，这是他职业生涯第四次单杆最高分。

在 5-2 落后之后，Robertson 猛烈反击，勉强进入八强。

Judd Trump 以 6-4 战胜 Barry Hawkins 晋级，期间包括两个世纪分。

Cooke 告诉 Rovers 必须控制好性格乖戾的 Mikey

作者：DANIEL TOMLINSON PAUL COOKE 坚称“有人需要控制住”赫尔 KR（Hull KR）的球星 Mikey Lewis。

Lewis 目前正因对沃灵顿狼队（Warrington Wolves）半卫 Ewan Irwin 的迟到击球，以及对 Adam Holroyd 的蛮横头撞而承受四场禁赛，这意味着他缺席了上周与赫尔 FC（Hull FC）的德比战。

这已经不是 Lewis 第一次在这一方面陷入麻烦了，他在赛季首轮比赛中曾绊倒约克骑士队（York Knights）的球星 Liam Harris —— 尽管那次事件未受惩罚。

“有人得控制住这孩子，”曾在赫尔 FC 和赫尔 KR 担任半卫的 Cooke 表示。

“在我看来，他上周攻击两名无法自卫的球员的行为是懦弱的。”

“尤其是从背后头撞 —— 我们就等着某人因为这样一个愚蠢的事件而受重伤。”

“然后是 Irwin 事件，在对方传球三秒后击中他，结果被出示黄卡。”

“中场休息时，他走回休息区时还在与沃灵顿的球员以及其他任何人争吵。”

“必须有人控制住他，因为他不能继续这样行为。”

“他是球队的大脑，但恕我直言，他的所作所为毫无大脑。他应该在场上引导这艘船，必须保持冷静和沉着。”

“在场边为周末的德比胜利欢呼是一个美好的愿景，但如果他们在缺失他的情况下不能赢球，导致联赛排名下降，最终没能进入总决赛，那他们甚至无法成就一名球星。顺便说一句，我不认为会那样发生，但假设性地说，任何事情都可能发生。必须有人约束他。”

“我不确定金钱罚款是否足以让他改变作风。我不确定什么才能让他改变，但必须有所改变。”

Cooke（插图）挑战 Lewis 借鉴 Jake Connor 的经验。Connor 在赫尔 FC 期间被视为一个像童话剧反派一样的人物，但现在可以说他是利兹犀牛队（Leeds Rhinos）中超级联赛（Super League）最好的球员。

Cooke 解释道：“在布拉德福德比赛后，我听了 Brad Arthur 谈论 Jake Connor，他说他在橄榄球技战术方面无法挑战 Connor，因为 Connor 对橄榄球的了解实际上比 Brad Arthur 还要多。”

“但他在心理素质上必须向其挑战，在场上做出更好的决定，降低风险，并且保持冷静。”

“真正让我感兴趣的一点是他提到的 Connor 与队友沟通的方式，以及他在球场内外的处世之道，基本上就是成为一个更好的人，并尊重地与他人交流。”

“这对 Mikey Lewis 来说是一个巨大的教训。”

Hull 承认在考虑与世界第一 Korda 进行长期竞争之前，她需要先赢得一座大满贯冠军

作者：ANDY HAMPSON CHARLEY HULL 承认，她必须赢得一座大满贯冠军，才能将自己视为 Nelly Korda 的竞争对手。

世界排名第 7 的 Hull 在高尔夫球最顶级的赛事中曾五次获得亚军，在进入本周于皇家利瑟姆与圣安妮斯举行的 AIG 女性公开赛时，她希望能够更进一步。

与此同时，世界排名第 1 的 Korda（右）已经拥有四个大满贯冠军头衔，包括今年的雪佛龙锦标赛和美国女性公开赛。

Hull 是自 2018 年以来首位英国籍公开赛冠军的有力竞争者之一，但她承认：“我现在并不真正将其视为一种竞争关系，因为，无意冒犯，Nelly 已经获得了许多座大满贯，而我一座也没有。

“我拿到了五次亚军。让我先赢得我的大满贯冠军，然后那是我们可以以后考虑的事情。”

本周的冠军将获得创纪录的 113 万英镑 (£1.13million) 奖金，总奖金池已增加至 750 万英镑 (£7.5m)。

在兰开夏郡的前两轮比赛中，Hull 将与澳大利亚选手 Hannah Green 和加拿大选手 Brooke Henderson 同组。

这位 30 岁的选手补充道：“我认为在过去几年里，大满贯赛事的奖金确实增加了，这真的非常好。

“现在巡回赛的任务，以及我们作为球员的任务，就是让赛事对每个人来说都真正具有吸引力，吸引更多人前来，使其成为赞助商眼中的盛会。我认为他们所做的一切都太棒了。

“这很不错，也很好，因为我热爱为了钱而比赛，我不打算撒谎！

“这就是为什么我认为我在大满贯赛中表现得如此出色。即使我落后很多，我也会想：‘今天多抓几个 birdies —— 这样我就能拿到更多钱！’”

28 岁的美国选手 Korda 将在星光熠熠的小组中开始她的挑战，同组的还有韩国选手 Ryu Hae-ran（前两项大满贯赛的冠军）以及 2024 年公开赛冠军 Lydia Ko。

另一位本土希望，世界排名第 5 的 Lottie Woad，将与日本选手 Akie Iwai 和美国选手 Andrea Lee 同组。

22 岁的 Woad 表示：“我认为对于任何英国球员来说，赢得这项赛事都将是梦想。

“我喜欢打林克斯球场，我相信在风力的考验下，这将是一次很好的挑战。

“这一直是我最喜欢观看的比赛，如果能赢得它将是一个梦想。”

当 30 岁的 Georgia Hall 八年前在同一场馆夺冠时，Woad 仅 14 岁。

她说：“我记得观看了那次比赛的所有轮次，显然是在支持一名试图获胜的英格兰球员。我想那是我就该赛事最早的记忆。

“我一直仰慕她和 Charley 这样的人。看着她赢得那场比赛非常令人振奋。”

AS THE PICKET

Gvardiol：我迫不及待想成为曼城荣耀的一部分

作者：ALEX JAMES

JOSKO GVARDIOL 在与伊蒂哈德球场签署了一份新的长期合同后，深信曼城拥有争夺各项重大荣誉的所有条件。

这位 24 岁的球员在今年夏天早些时候曾成为转会关注的对象，但他已签署了一份直到 2031, 年的合同，成为在 Phil Foden 和 Abdulkadir Khusanov 之后，一周内第三位签署新条款的曼城球星。

这位克罗地亚国脚被评为 2024/25 赛季的曼城年度最佳球员，他的能力、心态和多面性是蓝军希望通过延长合同将其留下的三个关键原因。

在 1, 月份与切尔西战平的比赛中腿部骨折后，Gvardiol 缺席了上赛季下半赛季的大部分时间，但在赛季最后几周回归，并代表克罗地亚参加了世界杯。

这位后卫（左）现在准备飞往亚洲，因为恩佐·马雷斯卡（Enzo Maresca）的球队将前往巡回赛——Gvardiol 认为，在球队寻求夺回英超冠军的过程中，曼城在这位意大利人麾下已经具备了开启成功时代的基石。

“我们这里的球员太棒了。这是一支年轻且充满潜力的世界级球队。我深信我们在未来几年会取得很多成功，”Gvardiol 说道。

关于马雷斯卡，他补充道：“大多数球员之前都有过与他合作的机会，而我之前没见过他。他也是最优秀的教练之一，我们都知道他在切尔西所做的工作。

“我记得当他在切尔西时，对抗他们很困难，尤其是客场。我们很吃力。我们非常高兴他能来到我们这里，我们可以从他的想法和心态中学习到新东西。我认为我们可以一起成就伟大的事业。”

足球总监 Hugo Viana（上图）表示：“Josko 是这家俱乐部真正信任的球员。他很年轻，是一名杰出的职业球员，并且已经是世界上最好的后卫之一。

“曼城致力于留住我们最优秀的人才，这就是为什么我们对达成这份新合同感到如此高兴。

“Josko 集中体现了我们对后卫的要求——他能胜任多个位置，速度快，强壮，而且在进攻时表现出色。他是卓越的。

“但他的行为方式也令人印象深刻。这是一个决心成为最强自我的年轻人——这种方法与我们的愿景完全一致。我想就这次新协议祝贺 Josko，曼城的每个人现在都专注于确保他能最大限度地发挥潜力。”

“这是一个决心成为最强自我的年轻人”

REALLY, MADRID?

皇家马德里声称，他们在 2025-26 赛季的收入超过 £1 10 亿英镑，打破了任何体育队伍单赛季的收入纪录。

尽管如此，白衣军团经历了一个令人失望的赛季，他们在欧冠四分之一决赛中被淘汰，并在西甲联赛中输给了巴塞罗那。然而，他们的财务表现令人印象深刻，俱乐部宣布其收入为 1,225m 欧元（£1,048）。他们表示，这种收入水平“直到现在为止尚未被任何其他体育实体达到”。

HOT ROD 赶在开赛前复出的赛跑

作者：ALEX JAMES

皇家马德里的目标球员 Rodri 正面临一场与时间的赛跑，以确保能在赛季开始时恢复健康。

这位西班牙世界杯冠军和曼彻斯特城中场球员接受了背部手术，他的回归目标时间是 8 月下旬。

曼城将在 8 月 16 日的社区之盾中对阵阿森纳，随后在 8 月 23 日在主场迎战伯恩茅斯，开启他们的英超联赛征程。曼城的一份声明称：“我们可以确认 Rodri 已经成功接受了背部小手术。这位中场球员一段时间以来一直感到不适，但现在已经接受了处理该问题的手术，并将开始一段短期的康复期。”

皇马增加了对这位 30 岁球员的兴趣，他的曼城合同已进入最后 12 个月。曼城已经向他提供了新的条款，但合同尚未签署。

这位西班牙人在过去的两个赛季中一直受到伤病困扰，在 2024-25 赛季的大部分时间里，严重的膝盖问题使他无法上场，随后在上一赛季又被持续出现的问题所困扰。

他在 2026 年初恢复了完全健康，在曼城与阿森纳争夺冠军的过程中发挥了关键作用。但在 4 月战胜枪手（Gunners）的比赛中受伤，导致他缺席了一个月。他在对阵切尔西的足总杯决赛获胜中重返赛场。

随后 Rodri 参加了世界杯并帮助西班牙赢得了冠军。这位中场球员被评为最佳球员。

切尔西老板 Enzo Maresca 表示，他并不担心转会传闻，他说道：“我们必须说，在大球员周围总是有猜测。这很正常。”

BARNES 提示喜鹊将掀起风暴

作者：LEE RYDER

HARVEY BARNES 揭晓了纽卡斯尔对新赛季的雄心计划——显然，在泰恩赛德（Tyneside），稳固现状绝非选项。

喜鹊军团上赛季勉强排名第 12 位，未能获得欧洲赛事的资格，但 Barnes 相信纽卡斯尔迟早会重返欧洲赛场。

在目睹了 Anthony Gordon 以 £69.3million 的交易转会巴塞罗那后，Barnes（顶部）认为自己在新赛季将扮演更重要的角色。

“肯定还会有更多事情发生，”签署了直到 2030 年新合同的 Barnes 说道。“随着你信心的增强以及在球队中角色变得更重要，这一切自然而然就会到来。”

Barnes 在纽卡斯尔的时光始于一次脚伤，导致他在以 £38m 从莱斯特城加盟后的第一个赛季中缺席了 30 场比赛。

但此后他证明了自己是一次性价比极高的签约，在 120 场比赛中攻入 30 球。

28, 岁的 Barnes 表示：“那是一个奇怪的开始。我有几个月在与伤病作斗争。当你开始在某个新地方工作时，总是很困难。”

“从那时起，我让自己进入了球队并打好了基础，而这种努力和耐心也得到了回报。”

“上赛季非常积极；这个赛季我想在此基础上进一步提升。”

Barnes 将与象牙海岸国脚 Bazoumana Toure 正面交锋，后者是由主帅 Eddie Howe（上方）以 £43m 的交易从霍芬海姆签下的。“看到新面孔加入总是很棒，”他说道。

“每个人都能看出这个夏天将是一个过渡期。球员在离开，新面孔在加入，更年轻的球员在进来，看到这种新鲜的活力真是太好了。”

Barnes 上赛季在欧冠之夜对阵巴塞罗那时攻入了进球。在与体育总监 Ross Wilson 达成协议后， he is convinced it won't be long before Newcastle are back in Europe and challenging for trophies again after winning the Carabao Cup.

Barnes 说道：“我已经体验过成功的滋味和那些特别的夜晚。真的就是想要更多这样的经历。并且在其中成为一名关键球员。”

“这里的每个人都想把俱乐部推向更高的水平。更多的奖杯，欧冠之夜，一年接一年地在此基础上构建。”

“今年没有欧战会有所不同，但这为我们在接下来的赛季发力提供了平台。”

UEFA 对世界杯判罚下达指令

接后页，透露场上的决定如果并非明显且显然错误，则应当受到限制。

今年夏天的世界杯期间，一系列争议性判罚成为了焦点。在 1 次平局对阵埃及的比赛中，伊朗队 Shoja Khalizadeh 的进球在经过 VAR 检查后，因极其勉强的越位判罚被取消。如果进球有效，伊朗将首次晋级淘汰赛。

在 VAR 建议进行场上回顾后，判定 violators Jr 对阵苏格兰队的进球因在对 Jack Hendry 犯规而被取消，这一决定引发了巴西人的批评，他们写信给 FIFA 要求“一致地应用 VAR 干预标准”。

挪威队在 Torbjorn Heggem 的射门（上方）被取消后感到沮丧，

这次射门本将在四分之一决赛对阵英格兰队的下半场让他们取得 2-1 的领先，但回顾后判定 Erling Haaland 推了 Elliot Anderton。

“Montaña Zico 在决赛阶段攻入的伟大进球之一——本可以让埃及在 16, 强赛对阵阿根廷时 2-0 领先——在 VAR 回顾认为 Lisandro Martinez 在埃及半场深处进攻发起阶段被犯规后被取消。”

而瑞士队在对阵阿根廷的比赛中，Breef Embolo 因为 Leandro Paredes 的一张黄牌在回顾后被撤销而被出示第二张黄牌被罚下。裁判认定 Embolo Diving（假摔）。

各联赛和其他赛事也被告知，在审查结束之前，不能使用“误认身份”协议来处理模拟（假摔）行为。

欧足联谴责出售计划

（接自后页）协会，决定保留或出售，其余部分则预留给私人投资者。在吉安尼·因凡蒂诺于 2031 年卸任国际足联主席后，他可能会被任命为新公司的最高负责人——这可能会为他带来数百万美元的收益。

但欧足联对此反击道：“这跨越了足球管理机构永远不应跨越的底线。足球的灵魂和治理不是可以交易的资产——尤其是关于谁在经济上获益，完全没有任何透明度。

“我们中没有人是足球的所有者。国际足联没有权力出售它。”

由美国总统唐纳德·特朗普的女婿贾里德（见上图）的兄弟约书亚·库什纳创办的 Thrive Eternal 公司将领导拟议中的 FFE 投资者团体。

安德顿称若队长离队将是“对所有人都最好的选择”

作者：RYAN TAYLOR 达伦·安德顿（DARREN ANDERTON）敦促托特纳姆热刺趁机出售克里斯蒂安·罗梅罗——并让米基·范德文接任队长。

罗梅罗因膝盖韧带受伤错过了上赛季的最后几周，目前在参加完阿根廷队的世界杯比赛后正在休息。

国际米兰和巴塞罗那正在追求这位 28 岁的球员，而这支北伦敦球队已经签下了两名新中后卫：简·保罗·范赫克和马科斯·塞内西。

前热刺球星安德顿（右图）认为，他的前东家现在必须最终出售他们的现任队长。

安德顿表示：“我认为他必须走。抛开所有关于阿根廷的事情以及上赛季末的行为——他想去看家乡球队的比赛，而不是在我们的最后一场比赛中出席。

“他多次让球队失望，而作为一名队长，你必须是可靠的。但他并不可靠。

“有时他能成为一名非常出色的后卫——他能前插得分，通过这种方式以身作则——但这种情况发生得太多了。

“甚至去年在曼联的比赛中，我们在前 20 分钟表现得很好，以为情况很不错，然后一次愚蠢的抢断导致红牌，我们陷入困境并被击败。

“对我来说这种情况发生得太频繁了，所以我认为这对每个人来说可能是最好的选择。”

罗梅罗卷入了在阿根廷于亚特兰大击败英格兰赢得世界杯半决赛后展示的“马尔维纳斯群岛”（Las Malvinas）横幅争议。

当被问及谁能接替罗梅罗担任托特纳姆热刺队长时，54 岁的安德顿告诉 OLBG：“我很想看到范德文担任队长，希望他能以正确的方式应对，并在这种责任感中成长为一名领导者。

“把他放在一个稳固的四后卫或五后卫体系中，配合一套关于如何进攻和防守的比赛计划，并由一名有组织的教练指导——我认为他将成为联赛中最好的后卫。我真的这么认为。”

熟能生巧 (PRACTICE MAKES SPORFECT)

重塑活力的麦迪逊称，严厉的操盘手德泽比已经让我们占据了主动

作者：RYAN TAYLOR 詹姆斯·麦迪逊 (JAMES MADDISON) 坚称，完美主义教练罗伯托·德泽比 (Roberto De Zerbi) 激发了托特纳姆热刺队内部的斗志。

这位要求严格的意大利人曾在上赛季最后一天带领陷入危机的热刺脱离险境，目前他正缓慢地将这家破碎足球俱乐部的碎片重新拼接在一起。

在从一年前于首尔遭受的前十字韧带 (ACL) 断裂中康复并重焕活力后，麦迪逊正渴望获得一个重新开始的机会。

他解释道：“教练非常明确，目标就是变得更好，踢出更好的足球，拥有激情，并为能代表这家俱乐部出战而感到自豪。”

“我认为如果我们听从他的风格、他想要的方式以及他的原则，如果我们坚持尝试变得更好并尝试执行他将要采取的打法这些短期目标，那么长期目标将会更好。”

“这仅仅是一个仍在学习他打法的问题。”

“作为一名球员，他是一位我们想要为其效力的教练。”

“他热爱一切与球相关的地带，非常有进攻性。我对此感到非常兴奋。”

托特纳姆热刺已经花费了俱乐部纪录的 £237million 签下了六名光鲜的新援，其中包括花费 £100m 签下的桑德罗·托纳利 (Sandro Tonali) 和 £85m 签下的马特乌斯·费尔南德斯 (Mateus Fernandes)。

德泽比已警告竞争对手，他们打算在 9 月 1 日转会截止日期前升级其进攻线。

在新招募的球员中，安迪·罗伯逊 (Andy Robertson)、扬·保罗·范赫克 (Jan Paul van Hecke) 和马科斯·塞内西 (Marcos Senesi) 三人为后卫，热刺在季前赛中尚未失球，这显示出了进步的早期迹象。

麦迪逊觉得现在一切都已准备就绪，以迎接一个“大赛季”，因为托特纳姆热刺终于寻求发挥其潜力，成为英超联赛中的一支真正强力球队。

“准备工作，这简直是极佳的准备，”他在俱乐部的大洋洲巡赛中补充道。“这是我们唯一一次能够通过这些旅行和巡赛去见见全球球迷的机会。”

“我们正在为 8 月 22 日对阵布伦特福德的赛季首场比赛做准备。”

“在一位新教练的带领下，这对我们来说是一个重要的赛季。我们希望有一个成功的赛季。”

“我们需要比过去几个赛季表现得更好。这一切准备都是为了迎接那第一场比赛。”

“在对阵悉尼队和切尔西的比赛中，我们正在加强准备工作以及我们一直以来所努力的方向，构建我们想要的球队形态和我们想要踢出的风格。”

热刺今日将面对悉尼 FC，

随后在周六与竞争对手切尔西交锋。

虽然德泽比正利用季前赛进一步推行他开阔的足球风格，但他也正在考察一些边缘球员和青年球员。

备受赞赏的边锋迈基·摩尔 (Mikey Moore) —— 游骑兵队和科隆队都对其感兴趣 —— 以及杰米·唐利 (Jamie Donley) 和丹·斯嘉丽 (Dane Scarlett) 都在努力争取进入德泽比宏大的计划中。

而 17 岁的瑰宝卢卡·威廉姆斯-巴尼特 (Luca Williams-Barnett) 则目标在北伦敦的一线队赛场实现突破。

尽管边锋马诺·所罗门 (Manor Solomon) 在对阵米尔顿凯恩斯 Dons 和奥克兰 FC 的友谊赛胜利中首发，但预计他仍将通过永久转会离开。

热刺还在等待尤文图斯正式表达对门将古列尔莫·维卡里奥 (Guglielmo Vicario) 的兴趣，后者并未进入巡回赛名单。

萨利巴受伤后米克尔陷入困境

作者：RYAN TAYLOR

米克尔·阿尔特塔 (Mikel Arteta) 创纪录的防线如此稳固，以至于像一座“阿森纳长城”。

但在缺少威廉·萨利巴 (William Saliba) 的情况下，下赛季要继续抵挡对手的进攻看来已经变得更加复杂。

在过去的三个英超赛季中，枪手队都拥有整个联赛中最严密的后防线。

在过去 114 场顶级联赛中，他们仅失 90 球——场均仅 0.78 球。

如果阿森纳想要卫冕，他们必须维持这样的标准。

但阿尔特塔的球队在开启卫冕之路时，将不得不缺少防线核心萨利巴（上图）。

这位法国国脚在世界杯半决赛负于西班牙的比赛中，忍痛作战导致严重的背部问题加剧。

虽然目前还没有具体的复出时间表，但这位 25 岁球员已经开始了一段长时间的休息。

萨利巴的受伤给西班牙新星克里斯蒂安·莫斯奎拉 (Cristhian Mosquera) 带来了额外压力，他被视为可靠的替补人选。

然而，加布里埃尔 (Gabriel) 自身也面临着身体状况问题，尤其是右膝反复出现的疼痛。

这位 28 岁球员在代表巴西队参加世界杯经历激战后，尚未回归季前训练。

尽管阿森纳将签下维尼修斯 (Vinicius Jr) 和巴西队友布鲁诺·吉马良斯 (Bruno Guimaraes) 视为优先事项，但人们感觉他们的后防线人数仍然略显不足。

本·怀特 (Ben White) 在膝盖韧带受伤后已恢复训练，但需要缓慢地融入一线队比赛。

尤里安·廷贝尔 (Jurrien Timber) 被迫退出荷兰队的世界杯名单，且在错过了赛季末大部分比赛后，接受了一个小的腹股沟手术。

左后卫里卡多·卡拉菲奥里 (Riccardo Calafiori) 也可以在中央后卫位置上出战，但他同样面临各种身体状况问题，上赛季缺席了 13 场比赛。

这就是为什么阿尔特塔（圆圈标注）可能仍会在市场上寻找一名能够在后防线多个位置胜任的球员。

埃兹里·孔萨 (Ezri Konsa) ——估值高达 £60 million ——是他们的首选防守目标，但阿斯顿维拉显然不愿出售这位英格兰国脚。

科莫队的雅各布·拉蒙 (Jacobo Ramon) 也在考虑之列，但皇家马德里拥有其任何出售金额 50 percent 的分成，这使得这家意大利俱乐部的谈判立场变得复杂。

GENT 足球：新赛季倒计时

桑托斯是马奎尔的礼物

作者：STEVEN RAILSTON 哈里·马奎尔 (Harry Maguire) 称赞了安德烈·桑托斯 (Andrey Santos) 自本月初从切尔西加盟曼联以来所展现出的个性。曼联支付了 £48m 的初始费用，外加潜在的 £2m 附加费，使桑托斯（上图）成为他们夏季的第一笔签约，这位巴西球员在对阵雷克瑟姆 (Wrexham) 和罗森堡 (Rosenborg) 的前两场季前赛中首发出场。中后卫马奎尔表示：“他真的是个很好的人，总是带着微笑。‘我们必须让他感到舒适，而他适应得很好。他在训练中表现出色。我认为他在比赛中也同样出色。‘他总是爱笑，爱开玩笑。他还是很年轻，将在俱乐部的未来中扮演重要角色。’”

但是，赫尔是一特殊的

作者：BARRY COOPER 赫尔 (Hull) 的夏季签约球员杰克·巴特兰 (Jack Butland) 承认，在他开启漫长职业生涯的最新篇章之际，需要一份特殊的报价才能诱使他离开游骑兵队。

巴特兰（插图）在格拉斯哥度过了过去三年，随后决定返回英格兰，加盟升入英超的赫尔队，这位门将的经验对于“老虎队”主教练塞尔盖·亚基罗维奇 (Sergej Jakirovic) 来说将是无价的。“我很高兴加入城市队，” 33 岁的巴特兰说。“我不想让这件事听起来像是我想离开游骑兵，因为事实并非如此。我在那里度过了一段奇妙的时光。”

“那家足球俱乐部太不可思议了，其中有太多我热爱的东西，因此必须是某些令人兴奋且特殊的事情才能将我从那里吸引走。”

蓝军仍需磨合

鲍比·文森特发自悉尼 查比·阿隆索向他的切尔西球员发出警告，如果他们想为新赛季做好准备，前方仍有大量工作要做。

切尔西希望通过签入来自布莱顿的 35 岁球员丹尼·韦尔贝克和 36 岁的布伦特福德中场乔丹·亨德森来增加一些至关重要的经验。

在经历了一场 6-4 险胜西悉尼游骑兵的混乱比赛后，这位蓝军新帅提出了多项担忧。

“每个人都必须学习，每个人，”阿隆索（见上图）说道。“无论你是年轻还是更有经验，比赛中就是这样。这也是你所需具备的一种素质。”

“我们需要快起来，因为比赛就在一个月后。”

准备就绪

保罗·戈斯特发自芝加哥 在芝加哥一家酒店的顶楼酒吧聊天时，米洛斯·克尔克兹以其极具感染力的活力明确了一件事：利物浦意在纠正上赛季的错误。

如果红军希望向前迈进并忘记他们英超冠军头衔背后脆弱的防线，那么克尔克兹将是那个从任命主教练安多尼·伊劳拉中获益最多的人。

他在伯恩茅斯追随伊劳拉期间，凭借其勇猛且极具攻击性的风格，在仅仅 12 个月前就成为了一个身价 £40m 的利物浦左后卫。

这位塞尔维亚人显然很高兴能再次与这位教练共事。在两人共同在南海岸工作的期间，伊劳拉赋予了他自由，使他成为英格兰赛场上最令人兴奋的进攻型全背之一。

克尔克兹坚称“完美适配”的伊劳拉将给利物浦球星带来巨大助力

关于任命伊劳拉，克尔克兹说：“我很高兴。我之前为他工作过，在他与我共处的两年里，他让我进步了很多。”

“我为自己感到高兴，也为球队感到高兴。大家都知道他踢什么样的足球，所以我认为他是我们的完美适配。”

“是什么让他成为一名特别的教练？是强度。他不怕在球场任何地方进行一对一地对抗，敢于高位压迫，并且始终保持进攻态势。”

“如果你看到我们训练后的录像，所有人全部躺在地上，你就能明白他是在为我们准备什么。要实现他要求我们做的事情，绝对需要强健的双腿和良好的体能，但我们会没问题的。”

“他非常专业。他有时喜欢交流，但不会太多。他不想与某些球员过于亲近，希望向大家证明球队中每个人都是平等的，所以他不想与任何人过于亲近。”

他保持专业，且要求大量刻苦训练。例如，当我们进行三支或四支球队的比赛时，他称之为“后果”，输掉比赛的球队和获得第二名的球队必须跑步。

“需要跑多少取决于他当时的决定，但输球的球队总得跑步。他很激烈，且注重细节。”

“他一直告诉我防守非常重要——对他来说这是首要的——因为你是全背，你需要强力防守。”

“你在面前能做的一切就像是奖金。”

“所以我总是先专注于防守，然后向前跑去帮助边锋。”

“他向我证明，当你完成了本职工作，你就可以自由地做你想做的事。和他在一起时我觉得很自由。”

“我们在（伯恩茅斯）有一支很棒的球队。不是我个人，而是我们作为一个团队表现得很好。他允许你更自由地发挥自己的能力。”

“伙计们表现得很好。前几次训练，他们还在适应，但现在他们变得更好了。”

“伙计们喜欢他的工作方式。我喜欢，他们也喜欢。这将完美契合这支球队。”

克尔克兹谈到了在季前赛期间正在塑造的“新一代”，他很享受承担更多资深责任的机会。“我不担心压力，”他说。“我在塞尔维亚的成长经历有点不同。这只是你的工作。做好你该死的工作就好。”

门徒 克尔克兹从新任 KGI 主帅伊劳拉那里学到了一些要点

“Mo 已经离开了，红军也必须前行”

作者：PAUL GORST 利物浦球星 Milos Kerkez 表示，Mo Salah 的离队意味着安菲尔德迎来了“新一代”的时刻。

Kerkez 坚称，他与同为左后卫的 Kostas Tsimikas（右图）之间“没有矛盾”。Tsimikas 在今年夏天回到了俱乐部，旨在与这位身价 £40m 的后卫在 Andoni Iraola 的率领下竞争位置。

Kerkez 在与 Salah 共同度过的一个赛季中，与后者以及 Dominik Szoboszlai 关系密切。这位 22 岁的球员在 Salah 赛季末离队后仍与其保持联系。Kerkez 解释了 Salah 在默西赛德郡期间带来的深远影响，但他表示不确定这位利物浦传奇在成为自由球员后的下一步动向。

Kerkez 说道：“在我们离开 AXA（训练中心）之前，我在电视上看到 Mo 贡献了多少个进球和助攻，是 300 多个。”

“我直接惊呆了！这是怎么回事？”

“但时光飞逝，新一代的球员正在加入，希望一切都会好起来。”

“我们经常（与 Salah）聊天，但我不知道他将签约哪支球队。”

“我们只聊假期。”

“我和 Kostas 相处得很好。”

上个季前赛我们也建立起了非常好的联系。当时是我、Dom、Kostas 和 Mo。

“没有什么矛盾。Kostas 是希腊人，我是塞尔维亚人，我们有某种相似的心态。”

“这个夏天很愉快。我和家人在一起，休息了一会儿。说实话，大约 10 天后我就开始觉得无聊了，所以我需要去健身房并接触一下足球。”

总体来说，这是一段美好的假期。“我在塞尔维亚的家里，在西班牙待了一会儿，在黑山周围转了转，然后回到了塞尔维亚的家中。”

“我在黑山周围转了转，然后回到了塞尔维亚的家中。”

关于本月早些时候确认的 Szoboszlai 的新合同，Kerkez 补充道：“这非常重要。”

“去年，你可以看到他在各方面都多么重要。‘他在领导者这个角色上变得越来越出色，对我们至关重要。’每个人都非常高兴他能留下来。”

美国冒险 Milos Kerkez 在利物浦的美国巡回赛期间迅速进入状态

SLOT 被解雇令 MILOS 震惊

作者：PAUL GORST 发自芝加哥 MILOS KERKEZ 透露，Arne Slot 在利物浦被解雇的消息令安菲尔德的球员们感到震惊。

红军在这位荷兰主帅的第二个赛季初期，卫冕英超冠军的计划便宣告破裂，最终仅获得第五名，距离冠军阿森纳落后 25 分。

当 5 月 30 日 Slot（下图）被解雇的消息传到他们耳中时，许多球员正在为世界杯做准备。

“我很惊讶，”塞尔维亚左后卫 Kerkez（左图，正在健身房锻炼）说道。

“我真的不知道。我回到了塞尔维亚，正在睡觉，我哥哥把我叫醒了。他敲我的门，这真是一个巨大的惊喜。”

“没人知道。我简直不敢相信，我想：‘哇！’之后我一直与他保持联系，我们交换了几条信息，仅此而已。”

Kerkez 去年从 Bournemouth 加强，并占据了左后卫的位置，出战了 34 场联赛，限制了 Andy Robertson 的出场时间，而后者随后加盟了热刺。

但 Kerkez 表示，球员们去年展现的标准在即将到来的、由新老板 Andrei Ireola 执教的赛季中将是不可接受的。

“显然上个赛季对每个人来说都很艰难，”他补充道。“当你在这里时，你需要为了赢得比赛而战。我们经历过艰苦的时刻。我们有反击的时刻，然后又陷入艰苦的时刻。这是一次很好的经历。你可以学到很多，收获很多。这对我们的标准来说并不理想，但今年我们需要提高。”

库库雷利亚称给路易斯纹身

马克·库库雷利亚（MARC CUCURELLA）履行了他的承诺，在身上纹了西班牙世界杯冠军主教练路易斯·德拉富恩特（Luis de la Fuente）的画像。

这位在今夏加盟皇家马德里的前切尔西左后卫，展示了他为这位 65 岁教练所做的致敬纹身，位于其手臂下方（见下图）。

该设计于昨日出现在 Instagram 上，画面中是德拉富恩特的肖像以及世界杯奖杯，库库雷利亚配文：“承诺已兑现”。

曼奇尼再次执掌意大利队

罗伯托·曼奇尼（ROBERTO MANCINI）第二次被任命为意大利国家队主教练。

在意大利足球协会（FIGC）经历动荡的 24 小时后，这位 61 岁的主教练接替了真纳罗·加图索（Gennaro Gattuso）。

安德烈亚·皮尔洛（Andrea Pirio）此前曾是热门人选，但他在周一宣布由于其与一家俄罗斯博彩公司的联系引发争议，他已不再是候选人。

这导致技术总监保罗·马尔蒂尼（Paolo Maldini）及其顾问莱昂纳多（Leonardo）在就任仅几天后便离职，FIGC 主席乔瓦尼·马拉戈（Giovanni Malago）昨日宣布克劳迪奥·拉涅利（Claudio Ranieri）将接替马尔蒂尼。

曼奇尼（插图）在 2018-2023 年期间担任蓝衣军团主教练，率领意大利队在 2021 年欧洲杯夺冠，但未能进入 2022 年世界杯。他最近执教的是卡塔尔的萨德足球俱乐部。

法国队转向齐达内

齐内丁·齐达内（ZINEDINE ZIDANE）已确认成为法国队新任主教练。

这位曾获得世界杯冠军的前法国队中场接替了迪迪埃·德尚（Didier Deschamps），后者在执教 14 年后于本月卸任。

这位前皇家马德里和尤文图斯球星，现年 54 岁（见上图），已与法国足协达成一份为期四年的协议，合同将持续到 2030 年世界杯结束。

他将于下月正式就任，首项任务将是法国队在秋季的欧国联赛事，届时他们将面对土耳其、比利时和意大利。

齐达内表示：“我经常说过，没有什么比法国国家队更伟大的了。”

“我对法国国家队抱有巨大的雄心！”

“如果你看到我们在训练后的样子，大家都躺在地上，你就能明白他在为我们准备什么。”

作者：SIMON CASS 欧足联（UEFA）指责国际足联（FIFA）在计划向私人投资者出售世界杯股份方面“越界”。

国际足联昨日确认，计划成立一个名为“国际足联前进企业”（FIFA Forward Enterprise，简称 FFE）的新实体，负责所有商业和赛事运营，并将邀请第三方进行“少数股权、非控股投资”。

国际足联将保留世界杯、女足赛和世俱杯的控股权。其余部分将分配给 211 个国家

GOODWOOD 2026 DAY 2 侦察员顶级电视推荐

James 梦想管家杯荣耀

JAMES OWEN 对周六的 Coral 管家杯 (Coral Stewards' Cup) 充满信心，认为这是 Far Above Dream 的“理想比赛”。

这匹四岁马曾在去年 10 月在相同赛道和距离上获胜，并在 5 月复出后再次获胜。它是这场绝美古德伍德最后一日重点赛事的赞助商 6-1 热门马。Kieran Shoemark 的搭档此前在纽伯里 (Newbury) 达成了三连胜，随后在皇家雅士谷 (Royal Ascot) 的 Wokingham 障碍赛中在 Double Rush 之后获得第四名。Owen 表示：“当它在纽伯里获胜时，让我们有机会参加 Wokingham，我们认为可以尝试一下。”

作者：David Yates

“我认为它在一条并不真正发挥其优势的赛道上跑得非常出色。”

“之后它进行了良好的调整，这一直以来就是计划——它在古德伍德保持不败，而管家杯是理想的比赛。”

状态正佳的 Owen 还将派出 Wokingham 第三名 Soldier's Tree（由 Billy Loughnane 骑乘）参加这场六转弯测试。

11 天前，这匹五岁马作为 7-4 的市场领先者参加了纽伯里的 Group Three Hackwood Stakes，最终在 Symbol Of Honour 之后获得第三名。Owen 补充道：“它并非没有机会——它会喜欢快节奏。”

OPERA BALLO (4.10) 被看好能在第一组 Visit Qatar Sussex Stakes 中击败三岁马，从而达到巅峰。

这位领跑者必须给 Bow Echo 和 Gstaad 让 8磅，后者在本赛季的 2,000 几尼赛（Guineas）和圣詹姆斯宫锦标赛（St James's Palace Stakes）中互有胜负。

Opera Ballo 在皇家赛会的女王安妮锦标赛（Queen Anne Stakes）中把握机会，直到最后 110 码才顶住压力。

在此之前的桑当（Sandown）第二组 bet365 英里赛中，他起跑极快，在 William Buick 的策骑下

让对手们疲于奔命。

这对古德伍德（Goodwood）起伏不平的赛道来说是个好预兆，如果他能轻快前行并保持高节奏，其他马匹可能会显得力不从心。

Gstaad 上次的跑法比 Bow Echo 更顺畅，但这次他可能会反超并获得一个名次，而 Lake Forest 非常出色，如果能进入前三，将使这周收获颇丰。

1 DOCKLANDS

在 2025 年他最喜欢的赛场阿斯科特（Ascot）举行的女王安妮锦标赛中，以微弱优势击败 Rosallion 时，评分达到了 118 的峰值。目前表现比该标准低几磅，且对萨塞克斯丘陵（Sussex Downs）没有那么强的适应力。

2 LAKE FOREST

昨日在此次比赛中发挥了惯常的后程冲刺，赢得了第二组伦诺克斯锦标赛（Lennox Stakes），导致其赔率被下调至 10-1 左右。如果他在 24 小时后再次出赛且状态良好，值得关注。

3 NEVER SO BRAVE

赢得的比赛数量低于预期，在约克（York）的第三组标准锦标赛（Criterion Stakes）中，尽管跑动流畅但最后体力不支，引发对其积极性的担忧。首次在古德伍德参赛，压力巨大。

4 OPERA BALLO

高质量的高龄英里马，战绩为 7-10，在女王安妮锦标赛获得第三名时，速度可能稍微快了一点。对手可能会试图干扰他，但如果能相对从容，他的比赛风格在这种赛道上是一项优势，且具备极高的水准。

5 QIRAT

昨日在 Lake Forest 之后获得第四名，他回到了 2025 年他最辉煌的赛场。赔率不会是 150-1，虽然本赛季获得了第三组荣誉，但尚未证明这并非侥幸。

6 SEAGULLS ELEVEN

两届第三组冠军，为 11 位现任及前布赖顿足球俱乐部（Brighton FC）球员所有，包括 James Milner 和 Danny Welbeck。一直是球队之星，但这次任务艰巨，尽管这匹栗色马在同场同程的战绩为 1-1。

最佳之选：Opera Ballo 具备第一组水准

Charlie 的小马将抢风头

8 BOW ECHO

在五次出赛中保持不败，履历中包括 2,000 几尼赛和圣詹姆斯宫锦标赛。考虑到在阿斯科特比赛过程中有不少不利因素，其表现尚可，但 Billy Loughnane 已在全力冲刺终点。在此承受较低赔率具有风险，因为比赛设定可能会将他的耐力推向极限。

9 DORSET

在 12 匹马中评分最低，

不太可能具备竞争力。

10 GSTAAD

与 Bow Echo 第三次交手，目前比分为 2-0，对方是 George Boughey 厩舍的明星马。Ryan Moore 对圣詹姆斯宫锦标赛中微弱的差距失利显得很沮丧，如果 Gstaad 能再多跑一步，在强力冲线后本可以反超。他可能成为 Opera Ballo 的主要威胁。

7 TEN BOB TONY

在女王安妮锦标赛中（左图）以 50-1 的赔率爆冷，在强节奏下展现出的冲刺能力令人印象深刻。考虑到 Opera Ballo 的分段速度，这可能有些夸大，但在该距离上尚未完全展露实力。

OWS & SOUS

交易室绝密情报 William HILL

William Hill 的发言人 Lee Phelps 表示... Goodwood 赛马日第一天的结果喜忧参半。

我们很高兴看到 Al Pudeba 在 Vintage Stakes 中落败，但深受支持的 Lake Forest 和 Scandinavia 的获胜则是彩民的胜利。所有目光都将集中在今天一级赛 Sussex Stakes (4.10), 和它的一级赛双冠得主 BOW ECHO (11-10 from 5-4) 正被彩民支持以取得连续第三场胜利，击败对手 GSTAAD (7-2)。OPERA BALLO (4-1 from 10-3) 的赔率有所走高，但 LAKE FOREST (18-1 into 11-1) 获得了大量资金支持，且昨天的 Lennox Stakes 冠军是否会把握机会将非常有趣。在开赛的 1.5 英里让赛 (1.50) 中，两匹由 Al Shayab 拥有的马匹领先市场。CANNES (4-1 from 3-1) 最初是热门，但已被深受支持的 HATTEEN (5-2 from 7-2) 取代。另一匹获得强力支持的是 BAY ROYALE，其赔率已从 10-1 跃升至 13-2。

因遭遇挫折错过了 English 和 Irish Guineas。在一次极具前景的奔跑后获准回归，尽管在 2025 年 Curragh 的 National Stakes 中领先于 Gstaad，但其潜力不如 Aidan O'Brien 训练的马匹。

WILD BLOSSOM (6-4 from 7-4) 在 Royal Ascot 的 Queen Mary 赛中名次靠后，但彩民看好 Karl Burke 的这匹小雌马能在 Alice Keppel 雌马条件赛 (2.25) 中反弹。

FLORA OF BERMUDA (3-1) 和 SAYIDAH DARIYAN (3-1) 在三级赛 Oak Tree Stakes (3.00) 的市场中难以区分。

PERSHAADA (3-1) 是三级赛 Molecomb Stakes (3.35) 的强力热门，而市场中赔率被大幅削减的高赔马匹是 Adrian Knotley 训练的 HELL OF A SPIN (33-1 from 40-1)。

UNDER THE TWILIGHT (6-1 from 17-2) 本月初在 Windsor 取得一场漂亮的胜利，现在被支持成为 6 浪让赛 (3.00) 的热门。

Jennie Candish 训练的 FRENCH AFFAIR 的赔率也从 12 降至 11-1。

George Boughey 旗下的一匹走势强劲的马是 OLIVER SHOW (8-1 from 10-1)，参加最后的 7 浪让赛 (5.40)。

广告内容

深受支持：Bay Royale

这一切都指向 Haggas 的胜利

INFRAAD (1.50) 被支持在第二天一场耐人寻味的 Coral Rewards Shaker 让赛中脱颖而出。

这场由九匹马参加的比赛聚集了许多有前途的年轻长距离赛马，其中包括 Cannes（在 Royal Ascot 的 King George V Stakes 中因慢速奔跑而落后太多）以及 Bay Royale（在 Nottingham 的新手赛中以绝对优势击败了我的选择和 Hatteen）。

在 4 月的那个日期，Infraad 是 11-10 的热门，在起跑前戴着头罩，由于节奏走走停停，未能发挥出最佳状态，无法匹配获胜者的爆发力。

但在几周后由 Tom Marquand 骑乘在 Pontefract 掌控自己的节奏，他轻松领先 6.5 个马身，并被赋予了 90 的让赛分值。

随后，Infraad 在一场 Chester 赛事开始前佩戴耳塞，在内侧被围堵，当 Harry Davies 切换到外侧发起挑战时，潜在的突破口迅速关闭。

结果，这匹由 William Haggas 训练的马在被视为绝无可能失败的支持下，在完成 1 英里 2 浪的比赛时仍有余力。

基于分值未变的证据，今天的额外距离肯定合适，而 Baltic Fleet（以 £170,000 转会至 Ian Williams 马房）被视为主要威胁。

由 侦察员 (Melissa Jones) 撰写

他在5月于约克赛马场在 Arc Ole Ole 之后的一次稳健赛事中展现了其让磅潜力，随后在伍尔弗汉普顿全天候赛道上获得第二名，其实际表现比当时看起来要好——而且 William Buick 已为该马房策骑赢得了 25 场冠军。

FAST TRACK (2.25) 可以在英国种马场 EBF Alice Keppel 雌马条件赛中充分利用其赛道经验。

作为 Blue Point 之女，她在 Queen Mary 锦标赛中落后于 Wild Blossom 和 Miss Lizzy，需要追回差距，但她在起跑失误后表现得过于急躁。

Fast Track 在贝弗利赛马场全程领先时充分利用了一次绝佳机会，仅需极少鼓励便以 40mph 的速度脱颖而出。

她早期的形式在组别赛级别上经得起仔细推敲，而她的马房正力求夺回 Flora Of Bermuda 在 2023, 年赢得的桂冠，且在过去五年中在此赛场的获胜次数超过其他任何马房。

上述母马在第三组别劳斯莱斯橡树锦标赛（Rolls-Royce Oak Tree Stakes）中承担共同最高磅数 9st 9lb，因为 19 天前在约克的一场同级别比赛中获胜而被处以 3lb 的罚磅。

她此次增加到七个格隆（furlongs），看来这是她的团队一直以来想要尝试的举动，因为她已报名参加 Hungerford 锦标赛和 City Of York 锦标赛。

然而，该赛事经常由冷门马赢得，自 2016 年以来，获胜赔率曾出现过 10-1, 16-1 和 12-1（两次），因此 QUEEN'S REIGN (3.00) 被推荐为全赢/位置（each-way）投注方案。

由 Kieran Shoemark 策骑（见下文）的这匹马在本赛季被赋予赢得一场利害相关赛事的任务，且在列明赛级别中曾多次接近获胜。

Ed Walker 本可以在本次会议中培养她，因为他在 2024, 年曾在此赛道获胜，而她在12月多维尔赛马场佩戴颊带（cheekpieces）且处于领先骑行时，仅在最后阶段被反超。

EL FLORIDITA (3.35) 在 Norfolk 锦标赛中落后于评价极高的幼马 Orthodox 获得第二名，这是一次极佳的跑法，可由此进军第三组别 凯歌香槟 Molecomb 锦标赛。

2026 DAY 2 第二日参赛马匹与骑师名单

任务：See The Fire 对阵 Diamond Necklace

Fire 将挑战 Diamond

作者：David Yates

SEE THE FIRE 再次在 Adam O'Brien 的助力下，出战明天的卡塔尔-拿骚锦标赛 (Qatar-Nassau Stakes)，力争这次能获得好运。

这匹由 Andrew Budding 训练的 Sea Fire Stars 之女曾在 2025 年的 Opera Singer 比赛中获得第二名，随后在后者的 Dabouyfe 赛事中获得第三名。她在 2 个月前赢得了比赛。

O'Brien 的 Diamond Necklace 是 8-10 的热门，旨在延续在 Poule d'Essai des Pouliches 和 Prix de Diane 的胜利纪录；而 See The Fire 将不会参加诺丁汉的 Listed Nottinghamshire Cocks 和约克的 Group Two Midsummer Stakes，此前在皇家阿斯科特 (Royal Ascot) 的威尔士亲王锦标赛 (Prince Of Wales's Stakes) 中仅获得第六名，次选赔率为 7-2。“她是非常高水平的，我们对她非常满意，”Budding 表示。“自从阿斯科特之后她出现了一些问题，但在最近几次训练中她的状态看起来不错。”

“唯一的担忧是她在阿斯科特比赛时跑得有些吃力。我们希望这不是因为她太热情而导致体力不支，但这更符合她的风格，而且场地条件应该也非常完美。”

Budding 还补充了关于上周六金乔治六世与女王伊丽莎白锦标赛 (King George VI and Queen Elizabeth Stakes) 冠军 Kaïaemi 的情况。“她从那场比赛中恢复得很好。”

“关于将采取什么样的计划，我目前还没有更清晰的结论。无论如何，她将度过轻松的两周。”

SCANDINAVIA

Scandinavia 在 Amiloc 意外滑脱的戏剧性事件后赢得古德伍德杯 (Goodwood Cup)

在一场充满转折的 Al Shaqab 古德伍德杯赛后，SCANDINAVIA 展现出了巨人般的风采。

这场两英里（two-mile）的焦点赛事被预演为 6-5 的热门马与 Trawlerman (13-8) 之间的直接对决，此前两匹马在雅士谷金杯（Ascot Gold Cup）中的史诗级对决一直持续到终点线。

这两匹赛道上的“斗士”各自拥有支持者，而第二回合在古德伍德投注圈前的较量在最后直道上展开。

然而，由于 Hector Crouch 在出闸时滑落，导致无骑师的 Amiloc 破坏了局面，它在 Trawlerman 面前疾驰并占据了其赛道空间。

这次干扰发生在关键阶段，但似乎并未影响最终结果。Scandinavia 以 8.5 个马身之差遥遥领先，似乎非常享受追逐那个已被排除在竞争之外的对手。

赛马界中能完成“雅士谷-古德伍德”双冠的寥寥无几，其中包括 Ballydoyle 的纪录保持者 Yeats (2006, 2008)，其四次赢得雅士谷金杯的纪录至今未被打破。“我认为他可以（比肩他），”O'Brien 如此建议，他目前这位顶尖赛马消除了外界对这家位于蒂珀雷郡（County Tipperary）的世界著名马房状态的担忧。

“他是一个巡航速度非常高的赛马，非常自然，易于训练，节奏感极佳，并且热爱他所做的事情。在那样一场比赛中发生了这么多事情，而且在两英里的距离上，你有充足的机会去观察并吸收所有细节。”Moore 曾与该马房之前的雅士谷金杯冠军 Order Of St George (2016) 和 Kypriss (2022, 2024) 搭档——后者在两个赛季中都实现了在 Down 赛区的双冠。

他补充道：“我刚才在和 Aidan 聊天，他说这可能是他见过的最好的耐力赛表现之一。”

“对他来说，全程有一个目标可以追随是很不错的——他可能觉得他被击败了！”

当一方在欢庆时，John 和 Thady Gosden 正在为另一匹赛道巨头 Trawlerman 的运气感到遗憾。

“一旦你被阻挡并失去节奏，在任何比赛中就都结束了，”老 Gosden 说道。“我们曾领先 1.5 个马身，突然之间我们落后了 1.5 个马身。”裁判在审查起跑后确认 Amiloc 属于参赛马，发现 Crouch 的腿被起跑设备勾住导致失去平衡。

Lake Forest (10-1) (11f，左) 在 G2 级别的 HKJC 世界泳池伦诺克斯锦标赛（Lennox Stakes）中突袭夺冠——如果状态达到 A1 级别，他可能会参加今天的 Visit Qatar 萨塞克斯锦标赛（Sussex Stakes）。

“我们会看看他的情况，但为什么不呢？”Maureen Haggas 在谈到这匹在终点前奋力冲刺的马时说道，部分博彩公司的赔率已从两倍以上下调至 8-1。

“他是一匹 5 岁的骟马，不需要长途跋涉。我们不确定一英里如何，但他能很好地跑完七英里。”

“无论如何，这是我们的计划。虽然一夜之间可能发生任何事情，但这就是我们的计划。比赛没有按照我们预想的方式进行；我们预期速度会很快，所以这是一个巨大的努力。”

GOODWOOD 2026 DAY 2

WISH A RASCAL!

By Melissa Jones

DR RASCAL (13-2) 与 Haffner 和 Al Hudaiba 展开较量，为 Kaiya Fraser 在 G2 级别的 Coral Vintage Stakes 中开辟了新局面。

马匹和骑师在几周前的雅士谷赛场上曾遭遇一匹脱缰马的罕见袭击，但令人惊叹的是，他们共同保持的不败纪录依然完好无损。

Fraser 被咬伤，而由 Oliver Cole 训练的、此前曾在莱斯特（Leicester）获胜的 Dr Rascal 则受到了严重惊吓，一度脱缰，并在进入起跑闸前需要鼓励。

但两者都证明了他们拥有极强的韧性，而这种特质在两人尝试大胆的内线路线时至关重要。在这次比赛中，Cole 的父亲曾凭借 Putra (1996) 和 Central Park 成功达成目标。

青马赛的成功是 Fraser 和 Cole 值得品味的时刻

(1997) 和 Strategic Prince (2006)。

在通过 Pikacha 之后，由 Charlie 和 Julia Rosier 拥有的这匹赛马仅需要 Fraser 按几个按钮（用力催促），便以半个马身（half-length）的优势领先于 Haffner 夺冠，而 5-4 的热门马 Al Hudaiba 紧随其后，以短头（short-head）之差获得第三名。

“那个缺口刚好足够我穿过去，”来自伦敦的 23 岁青年 Fraser 说道，他是被其已故的祖父 Winston 引导进入赛马世界的，他的祖父非常热爱投注。

“在之前两次骑乘他之后，我知道我底下的马还有多少后劲，而他足够勇敢地去完成我的指令。”

“他必须被推入起跑闸，因为显然他上次出赛有那方面的经历。这意味着一切。”

Cole 在接手父亲的马房执照 12 个月后补充道：“在我作为训练师的第一个完整年度里，这意味着很多。”

“他是一匹非常好的马。我们可能会考虑参加 Dewhurst 或类似的赛事。”

Saffie Osborne 骑乘 Twilight Calls (6-1) 在最后时刻发起了惊人的冲刺，在 Coral Rewards Staker 障碍赛中及时反超，击败了 Naana's Sparkle 和 Glamorous Breeze，延续了她的好状态。

“希望他周六能参加 Stewards Cup，”驯马师 Richard Spencer 说道。博彩公司将其这匹八岁赛马超越去年第五名的机会评定为 16-1。

“我认为他很享受迪拜的冬日阳光，而且遮眼罩起到了很大作用。”

Joseph 处于巅峰状态

CONFORT ZONE 在周一晚上的重点赛事 Connacht Hotel Handicap 中，在最后的半圈冲刺中奋起夺冠，现在有望在周末的 Galway Festival 赛事中冲击双冠。

这匹由 Joseph O'Brien 训练的七岁马一直处于领先位置，当 Derek O'Connor 在赛道中心发起挑战时，这匹 18-4 的赛马响应积极，最终以三个四分之一马身之差获胜。

O'Brien 表示：“太棒了，Derek 的骑乘非常出色。在外侧获得了一些空间后，他的状态变得非常好。较慢的场地可能也对他有所帮助。他过去在 Galway 的表现一直不错，所以你可能会在周末再次看到他出现在这里。一段时间以来，他一直在为大奖赛而战，且一直处于获胜的边缘，威胁着要赢得一场比赛。”

“我很高兴他能在这里实现目标，在周一晚上赢得这里的重点赛事是非常特别的，这为本周奠定了良好的基调。”

Age UK's review comes as Andy Burnham prepares to unveil plans to tackle the issue today. Campaigners

BY MARTYN BROWN Political Editor

have urged the Prime Minister to focus on core themes to help solve one of the country's biggest problems.

They include speeding up reforms, committing to a free social care system on the same basis as the NHS and sufficient funding for it.

Panic as major quake rocks southern Japan

A HUGE 72-magnitude earthquake sparked panic in Japan yesterday. Terrified customers were trapped in a damaged shopping centre while a train derailed nearby, with around 40 casualties. Also hit were bridges, roads and buildings in Kumamoto on the south-west island of Kyushu. Locals were last night braced for aftershocks.

Vocational courses 'not dumbing down'

BY STEPH SPYRO Deputy Political Editor

EDUCATION Secretary Lucy Powell insists new vocational courses for children are not about 'lowering aspirations' for them to attend university.

From Year 10 pupils will be able to study qualifications linked to local industry, including AI and manufacturing, it was announced yesterday.

The government claims it will give them a clearer route into skilled jobs.

Ms Powell said: 'We don't want fewer people going to university.'

'Having that offer of the same quality, the same esteem - pathways straight into employment or into further education, into technical and vocational education, will suit some students better and will actually equip all students with the skills they need for the modern economy.' She also

Mr Burnham with factory workers in Derby

told BBC Radio Five Live: 'This is not about dumbing down in any way or having less aspiration for kids to go to university.'

More than a million young people in the UK are not in education, employment or training (NEET) - the most in more than 12 years.

The government expects the new courses to be up and running in some

areas by 2028 but scant details have been revealed, including how they will operate where industrial activity is low.

Speaking at a train factory in Derby, PM Andy Burnham said: 'We've had a system built for too long around the university route and it sends a message to some young people that they're some kind of second-class citizens and it's just not right.'

'They need an education system that works for them as well.'

At the same visit, Work and Pensions Secretary Pat McFadden announced a new bursary worth £4,500 a year for teenagers from homes on universal credit to take on an apprenticeship.

It has been claimed they are put off for fear their families might lose out.

Mr McFadden said the welfare system 'should be a springboard to opportunity, not a barrier to it'.

ballet moves for
Elle magazine

Anya's joy of dance

BY FRANCES MILLAR

ANYA Taylor-Joy says she has two passions that sum her up perfectly – ballet and rave music.

The Dune star loves dancing to both, adding: “That’s a pretty good split of my personality, to be honest. Ballet class and deep, dark techno.”

She combined them for her 30th birthday this year, when she pulled together a party in Los Angeles with just two days’ notice.

The soundtrack was heavy techno from the underworld, while the dress code was Mount Olympus.

Anya, who was raised in London, told Elle UK: “[There were] 200 of my favourite people in one place, on a Wednesday, in LA. My friends DJed some pretty intense techno, which I realised is not everyone’s cup of tea, but they got into it.”

“I wanted it to look a bit culty. Everyone was in long white dresses or suits and flower crowns.”

Anya, who stars in Dune Part III later this year, is currently appearing in the Apple TV+ thriller Lucky.

Off-screen she feels very fortunate after marrying US musician Malcolm McRae, 32, in 2022.

She said: “I don’t want to sound smug but I love him so much.”

“To have a best friend who goes through life with you – it has given me a sense of security that I didn’t really ever dream about.”

PRESSURE ON

Jade Belgrove, Kemi Badenoch and Kieran Mullan yesterday

Badenoch: Rent prison spaces instead of letting out the worst offenders

BY MICHAEL KNOWLES Home Affairs Editor

SHOPLIFTERS and dangerous drivers should be let out of prison before killers, paedophiles and rapists, Kemi Badenoch has said.

The Tory leader urged the Prime Minister to consider renting prison spaces in other countries to alleviate the overcrowding crisis.

It came as victims of rape told how Labour's sentencing reforms - paused under PM Andy Burnham - would steal their "justice" and create a new sense of terror.

Grooming gang survivor Sarah Wilson said: "Paedophiles will never be rehabilitated. We need to exempt all these dangerous offenders.

"I'd prefer a thief on the streets than someone who's going to rape another child."

Anxiety

Under Labour's plans, killers and rapists would be let out early, and 43,000 criminals would avoid jail altogether. Many convicts would be out after just a third of their time.

Prior to the pause, the first cohort were expected to be released on September 2, starting with criminals handed sentences shorter than 18 months. Releases would then ramp up month by month. Offenders handed more than 12 years in jail - some of the country's most dangerous criminals - would start to be freed next June.

Carol Higgins, who was repeatedly raped by her father, said: "Instead of serving 50% of his sentence in prison, he would only serve 33%. Every minute taken off his prison time would be a minute added to my fear and anxiety.

Reducing the sentence is stealing my justice." Mrs Badenoch, speaking alongside child rape survivor Jade Belgrove and shadow justice minister Kieran Mullan yesterday, called for more prisons to be built. She said the government should revive the previous Tory government's bid to rent jail places overseas to avoid having to let out violent offenders. She also called for foreign offenders to be removed to prisons in their home countries.

Ms Belgrove was among survivors who delivered a petition signed by over 100,000 people to Downing Street yesterday calling

on Mr Burnham to "urgently rethink" the early release plans.

She said: "We can't face this trauma day-in, day-out."

Marie Stone, who was sexually assaulted as a child by Harry Miah who would be due to be released if his 18-year term is cut to six years, said: "It's destroying us."

The Ministry of Justice said: "We are pulling every lever to protect the public and cut crime. We have paused changes due to start in September to conduct an urgent review to make sure we get this policy right for victims without running out of prison spaces."

benefit from radical social care reform and so will the UK economy." He claimed now is the best chance since the Second World War to put social care on a par with the NHS and create a "world-leading service to ensure that older people can remain with dignity in their own homes for as long as possible.

"Hospital wards are currently filled with unhappy older people, deteriorating fast in expensive hospital beds when there is no need for intensive medical intervention; they could be thriving in familiar surroundings at home with the right social care support."

Mr Burnham will use his visit to a North London care home to commit to fast-tracking reform of a care system he described as "broken".

He will say that a review led by Baroness Casey will be accelerated to enable changes to begin before the end of the decade.

But the Premier is likely to stop short of saying how the estimated £18.5billion cost will be met.

Critics have warned against the PM's favoured 10% care levy - branding it a "death tax".

Mr Burnham asked Tory leader Kemi Badenoch and Lib Dem chief Sir Ed Davey to meet him to discuss how to drive urgent changes.

Mrs Badenoch cannot attend so Shadow Health Secretary Stuart Andrew will be there instead.

A Tory source criticised Mr Burnham for giving just 18 hours' notice, adding: "It's almost like it's only being done for show."

Reform UK was not included and leader Nigel Farage claimed: "Burnham is conspiring behind closed doors with the failed political establishment to foist further tax rises on the country."

The PM said last night: "For decades, governments have kicked this issue down the road because they've seen it as too risky, too difficult and too complicated.

"It's time to draw a line under people playing politics when the human cost of that means carers struggling, families paying the price and our NHS buckling.

"We can carry on passing the problem to the next generation or we can...work together to build a care system that gives people dignity, security and the support they deserve." Baroness Casey said

has the 'best chance' to fix ...so he must not 'bottle it!'

SYSTEM AMONG 'LEAST GENEROUS'

HOW DOES ADULT SOCIAL CARE WORK IN ENGLAND? Unlike NHS care, social care is not free at the point of use and high costs sometimes mean people are forced to sell their homes to pay for what they need.

People with savings that are worth more than £23,250 are not entitled to help with the cost of care from their local council.

Recent analysis by the Nuffield Trust think-tank found England is one of a few systems where access to any public funding for care is restricted by how much money people have.

HOW DOES IT WORK ELSEWHERE?

England has one of the least generous adult social care systems in the UK and beyond, according to the Nuffield Trust.

The organisation's analysis of 11 other countries or regions, including the three other UK nations, found England 'stands out from the pack, in that people must also pass a financial test to be considered for any state-funded support at all'.

Denmark had the most generous system, with anyone over 65 assessed as needing care able to access it for free - aside from the cost of accommodation in residential care - regardless of their financial circumstances.

HOW MANY PEOPLE USE THE SOCIAL CARE SYSTEM IN ENGLAND?

There were 889,000 people receiving publicly funded long-term care in the year to March 2025, according to analysis by the King's Fund health charity. This was made

up of 576,000 over-65s and 313,000 people aged 18-64.

The King's Fund said local authorities spent similar proportions of money on long-term support for working-age adults (£11.5billion) and older people (£12bn) in 2024-25.

WHAT ABOUT THOSE WAITING FOR CARE?

As of the end of March this year, 408,985 people were awaiting an assessment of their needs, for care and support or their direct payment to start, or a review of their care plan.

According to analysis by the King's Fund, there were two million new requests for adult social care support in England in the year to March 2025.

HOW WELL-STAFFED IS THE ADULT SOCIAL CARE SECTOR IN ENGLAND?

Vacancy levels in adult social care remain around three times higher than in the wider economy.

A report from the Skills for Care charity published in June said there were around 96,000 vacancies on any given day. According to the 2021 Census there were an estimated five million unpaid carers across England and Wales.

WHAT MIGHT REFORMS COST?

The Health Foundation think-tank has estimated that if the state covered the costs of everyone currently receiving adult social care services in England, an NHS-style social care system would cost £18.5bn extra a year by 2035 - on top of the current costs.

10% death tax would cost £74k but No10 'rules out' raid

BY KATIE HARRIS

ANDP Burnham's possible 'death tax' would see an average homeowner hit with a £74,000 bill, according to analysis by Reform UK.

There are fears the Prime Minister could slap a 10% levy on all estates to pay for social care reforms, although that seemed to be ruled out last night.

The move would cost an average mortgage-free homeowner in England and Wales £74,737, while the figure would cut £50,669 for those in Mr Burnham's Makerfield constituency, analysis claims.

Reform's Robert Jenrick said: 'As a thank you for electing him, Burnham is considering imposing a universal death tax, in a move that would cost his average constituent £50,000, just as they are grieving at the loss of a loved one. He has no mandate to raid people's precious savings.'

Voters have already rejected a death tax on four occasions.

Mr Jenrick added: 'Reform UK demands Burnham thinks again before destroying the inheritance of millions of people.'

But the government yesterday insisted there are no plans to resurrect the 'death tax', which Burnham had suggested in 2010. A spokesperson said: 'There are no plans for this.'

'Our focus is on working to find common ground and deliver the reforms needed to fix social care - not imposing one particular solution or tax.'

there have been 22 attempts to reform the sector since 1997 but none 'fixed the foundations'.

She continued: 'We have been stuck in the same cycle: crisis, promises of reform, another review and then retreat, while the people who need care and their families bear the brunt.'

'Fixing adult social care is about far more than money. People are already paying for failure through council tax, pressure on the NHS,'

their savings, giving up work and the forced sale of their homes.'

The scale of the crisis was highlighted by Age UK, with the charity warning that people's struggle with daily tasks increases the risk of falls, serious injury or worse.

Its review of 11 million over-65s in England found that nearly two million have unmet needs: 1.4 million have difficulty dressing, 930,000 struggle with bathing, 730,000 find it hard getting in and

out of bed and 490,000 cannot use the toilet without help. Also 430,000 have difficulty walking across a room while 230,000 struggle with eating.

Caroline Abrahams, charity director at Age UK, said reforming social care will let people focus on the 'prize' not the challenges.

She added: 'Knowing that if we develop care needs and disabilities as we get older, we will not be abandoned to struggle alone - as

happens to almost two million of us. A reformed system would ensure that there would be some help for us, and hopefully it would be properly joined up with the health care we typically require.'

She said people will 'all have to put our hands in our pockets...in advance in all likelihood, or after our death through a contribution from our estate, rather than facing an enormous bill'. Mr Burnham said this week he believes 'the

NHS will collapse' if social care is not reformed. He has spoken movingly on the issue, saying his father has been moved to a care home as he has Alzheimer's.

Adult social care provides state support to help people to live more independently, including at home.

In England and Northern Ireland, those with more than £23,250 in savings are not entitled to help with care costs from their council.

Police probe Polanski's Farage execution post

BY STEPH SPYRO Deputy Political Editor

ZACK Polanski has failed to apologise for sharing a "sick" and "deeply inappropriate" post about Nigel Farage which is being probed by police.

The Green Party said Mr Polanski "condemns" the picture of a man wearing a black T-shirt with the message "we're only making plans for Nigel" and an image of a guillotine.

Mr Polanski accepted being tagged in the post with 20 images "without realising there was more to it than he had seen", according to his party.

Police are looking into the incident after Reform UK contacted officers.

Speaking on BBC Radio 4's Today programme, Reform's Robert Jenrick said: "I think it does show that [Mr Polanski] is someone who isn't fit to lead a national political party."

The MP added: "I thought it was a deeply inappropriate, in fact, a sick Instagram post by Zack Polanski.

Threats

"And it's for that reason that Reform reported it to the police. You've got to look at the context here.

"We're only a short period after the [alleged] murder of Ann Widdecombe, our colleague Nigel Farage is a politician who has faced hundreds of threats, some of which are highly credible.

"A man is in prison presently for threatening to kill him. Another man, we're told, the police arrested for threatening to kill him recently. It is completely inappropriate for leaders of national political parties to be sharing posts like this, which arguably incite violence against others."

Work and Pensions Secretary Pat McFadden warned politicians should "be careful" about what they share on social media. He also noted how it had been only weeks since the "appalling" death of former Express columnist Ms Widdecombe, an ex-Tory minister who was later a Reform UK spokesman. Mr McFadden said: "We're all

bearing in mind what's recently happened - the most appalling [alleged] murder of a former politician - and that gives a duty on all politicians to be careful about what they post [and] share."

He continued: "It's not the first time Zack Polanski has done something like this." In May, he apologised for sharing a post criticising the police response to April's Golders Green stabbings, saying he had done so "in

haste". At a press conference in London yesterday, Conservative leader Kemi Badenoch said Mr Polanski and Mr Farage are "spending too much time on Twitter and Instagram, and not enough time talking to real people with real problems".

She later added: "I'm the only one who's spending time talking about real issues."

A Green Party spokesman said: "The T-shirt is clearly in poor taste, especially at a time of heightened fears for the security of public figures, having experienced multiple threats himself. He and the Green Party call on everyone involved in public discourse to show kindness and not encourage more division."

It is understood that Mr Polanski has not offered an apology to Mr Farage in private either.

Berlin van kill attacker was loyal to ISIS

BY CIARAN MCGRATH

INVESTIGATORS have recovered mobile phone footage showing the Berlin Pride van attack suspect pledging allegiance to Islamic State hours before Saturday's rampage.

Abdul Ballout, 21, is believed to be behind the atrocity in which a Polish woman, 65, was killed and 29 others were injured.

After crashing into a tree, he continued the assault with a blade before fleeing.

Berlin police tracked the jihadist to an allotment the next evening, shooting him dead when he charged officers with a knife.

Ballout posted ISIS propaganda in 2024, tried to reach Syria via Lebanon in 2025, served three months in a Lebanese jail and returned to Germany that November.

In May 2026, a Berlin court sentenced the German-born citizen of Lebanese origin to 22 months for preparing a serious act of violence.

But he was still free pending appeal.

Jail for knife stunt man over asylum

BY KIM PILLING

A FAILED asylum seeker who went to a school with a hammer, hatchet, seven-inch kitchen knife and half a litre of petrol has been jailed for two years.

South Sudanese national Both Doak Deng, 21, had three asylum applications rejected and wanted to "create a scene for attention" to aid his cause, a court heard.

He was arrested after workers confronted him at Edgar Wood Academy in Heywood, Greater Manchester, on August 6 last year.

A day earlier he was seen "acting oddly" at Holy Family RC and CE College in Rochdale.

Sara Haque, defending, told Manchester Minshull Street crown court: "He wanted attention... His only wish is to work and support his family."

Deng admitted a series of offences. Jailing him, Judge Bernadette Baxter said "the Home Office should be doing something rather than nothing to deal with your status" in the UK.

'Ban trans activists before someone is killed'

A TRANS direct action group which called for activists to buy hammers to target MPs should be banned before someone is killed, a former government adviser says.

Bash Back has produced a guide for followers with examples of "good targets" for action, including "offices of transphobic MPs" and the property of "transphobic public intellectuals".

It adds: "Ensure your target can be hit repeatedly until they desist from their activities."

Online material also advises equipment such as backpacks and hammers should be "acquired with as few direct links to the actionists as possible" and to "purchase in cash, or acquire by other untraceable means". If

gives advice on punishments should activists be convicted of an offence.

Recent posts on the X account linked to Bash Back claimed former Health Secretary Wes Streeting "killed trans kids" during his time in charge of the NHS. It also called Home Secretary Shabana Mahmood a "transphobe, racist and authoritarian".

Merchandise bearing the words Bash Back is sold on sites such as Etsy and

Mr Streeting and Ms Mahmood

includes a T-shirt and cap featuring rifles. Despite singling out ministers, including the "transphobic, racist bully" PM Andy Burnham, the group said: "We do not condone causing physical harm to any human being."

It comes at a time when the security of political figures is under scrutiny. A

source with knowledge of Bash Back's tactics said: "They think they are the Real IRA or something. It's a disaster waiting to happen. They should be proscribed before

someone gets seriously hurt. They are a terrorist group. It's bonkers."

Lord Walney, the government's former adviser on political violence, likened Bash Back to proscribed Palestinian Action.

He said: "The language and imagery used by Bash Back clearly and deliberately puts women in danger of being violently assaulted in the name of trans rights - the Home Secretary should proscribe the group before someone gets killed."

The Express tried to contacted Bash Back and the Etsy sellers for comment.

The Home Office said protesters crossing the line into intimidation, unlawful or violent behaviour will face the full force of the law.

CHILDREN'S ANGER AS FLAT'S VALUE HALVED

The Daily Express launched its Stop the Retirement Flat Trap campaign this month to expose the scandal leaving bereaved families trapped with unsellable retirement flats while being hit with spiralling service charges. We're speaking to people affected by the crisis and want to hear your story. If you or your family have been caught in the retirement flat trap, please contact laura.zilincanova@reachplc.com

EXCLUSIVE

BY LAURA ZILINCANOVA

TWINS Jackie Hughes and Martyn Woods are warning people off buying retirement flats after going through hell trying to sell their late mum's place.

The siblings, 68, had three years of £191-a-week service charge bills and sleepless nights until the apartment sold in April for £110,000. Their mother Barbara paid £145,000 in 2019.

By the time all the associated costs were deducted, the family ended up with £70,000.

Jackie said: 'I'm just relieved that mum doesn't know what went on after she passed away, because she would be devastated.'

Barbara spent her working life grafting as a nursing assistant and hairdresser alongside trucker husband Ralph to give their children a good life.

For more than 10 years she lived alone in a detached bungalow in North Wales.

But in 2019, after breaking her hip and becoming increasingly frail, she sold up and moved to a retirement flat in Chester.

The one-bedroom second floor apartment was on a complex in Kingswood run by social housing landlord Your Housing Group (YHG) and had a £115 weekly service charge.

Barbara died aged 92 in April 2023, after her health deteriorated following a fall and worsening vascular dementia.

Weeks later YHG hiked the service charge – which covers the likes of heating and lighting in communal areas – by 66% to £191. It still had to be paid by the family.

Retired midwife Jackie said: 'My heart sank. I thought mum would have hated that. And would she have been able to afford it?'

The situation left her and Martyn, a retired Shell operations boss, haunted by the question: 'How the hell are we going to sell the apartment?'

The service charge was the biggest obstacle to finding a buyer and cost the family dearly.

They also faced bills for council tax, solicitors and estate agents – on top of the development's sinking fund contribution – a dedicated savings pot used to pay for major, infrequent building repairs.

Jackie recalled: 'It was horrible.

'I'm just relieved Mum doesn't know what went on after she passed away'

I felt like I never slept for three years'. After making numerous complaints to YHG about the challenges, the group responded by sending a letter addressed to Barbara, who had been dead for months. The Housing Ombudsman found YHG at fault and ordered it to pay £75 compensation.

The sale of the apartment completed on April 21, on the third anniversary of Barbara's death. Jackie said: 'I never breathed a

sigh of relief until the contracts had exchanged and we completed.' The twins believe older people with more savings should still have the option to rent.

Penalised

Jackie said: 'My parents worked their socks off to try and give us a good life and to have something for their future. But you seem to be penalised if that's what

you do.' The Express is campaigning for legislation to tackle age restrictions and lower fees on retirement homes after hearing from many families stuck with unsellable properties.

YHG said of the 66% service charge rise: 'We experienced significant increases in utility costs following unprecedented rises in the wider energy market, which coincided with the end of a long-term energy contract. Any subse-

COMMENT

DENNIS REED

Director of Silver Voices

CONGRATULATIONS to the Express for the Stop the Retirement Flat Trap crusade, exposing the scandal.

With little competition, developers can get away with charging what they like and with restrictive practices that deter resales.

The previous government's Older People's Housing Taskforce confirmed that up to 50,000 age-appropriate homes must be built each year to meet demand.

But only about 7,000 are actually being built. Labour is making no attempt to bridge that gap despite its stalled housing priority.

Nothing has been done to stop residents and families being held to ransom by service charges or by the low priority given to resales by multinational private developers.

Reform

Housing Secretary Angela Rayner needs to shock them out of their complacency.

One reform could be a need that if a flat is unsold in a set period – say a year – there would be an obligation on the developer to buy it back at market rates.

That would incentivise the firm to support families but, as a backstop, force them to refresh the property for resale or rent.

Complexes can be left to deteriorate with vacant flats while new sites are put up nearby, making resale less attractive.

The best developers have axed exit fees and deter service charges, but that needs to be industry-wide.

Angela Rayner must respond to the crusade because confidence is being lost in this market.

66% rise in flat service charge within weeks of Barbara's death

quent increases in service charges reflected legitimate cost increases incurred in operating and maintaining the scheme, and only those costs recoverable under the terms of the lease were passed on to residents.' It added: 'Resale times are influenced by wider market conditions and buyer demand. While the challenges are well recognised across the sector, Your Housing Group remains committed to treating residents and families fairly.'

Mother and boyfriend murdered girl, two

BY TOM WILKINSON

A MOTHER and her boyfriend have been convicted of murdering her two-year-old daughter, who was sexually abused before she suffered a catastrophic head injury.

Isabelle Welsh endured 21 broken bones in the weeks before she collapsed at home last September.

Alexandra Walker, 26, and Harrison Simpson, 22, were found guilty by jurors of her murder and child cruelty, while Simpson was also convicted of sexually assaulting the toddler.

Isabelle's father yesterday called for whole-life terms for the pair when they are sentenced tomorrow.

As the toddler was dying her mum smoked a cigarette in her kitchen and delayed calling 999 despite Googling 'why would my toddler be bleeding'.

Bruises

Instead she asked her stepfather to come to her home in Thornaby, Teesside, and it was only on his instruction that she finally alerted the emergency services.

Paramedics arrived within a minute and found bruises all over the little girl's body, including to her head, neck, abdomen, back and private parts. There was blood in her nappy and sick on her face.

Isabelle was not breathing and was cold to the touch as medics battled in vain to save her, and she died the next day in hospital. A postmortem

Simpson and Walker will be sentenced tomorrow for the murder of two-year-old Isabelle

revealed her skull was fractured, her brain damaged and she had been sexually assaulted.

Experts said Isabelle had been shaken and her head impacted against a wall or the floor, the jury at Teesside crown court heard.

Walker met Simpson on Facebook Dating just months before Isabelle's murder, the court previously heard.

She suspected he might be a paedophile and thought it was 'weird' that he preferred to see her and Isabelle at the same time, rather than be alone with his girlfriend.

Such were her concerns that she even checked if he was on the Sex Offender Register, but still she stayed with him.

Just 11 days before her collapse, Isabelle was taken to her GP and then to hospital with a broken leg. Despite

the misgivings of some staff, the little girl was discharged to her mother, who had shown aggression towards medics when concerns were raised about what had happened to her child.

Walker explained that Isabelle must have hurt her leg when it got caught in her cot.

On that occasion, too, Walker had waited two weeks to seek medical help for Isabelle, despite the toddler being in pain and struggling to walk.

Richard Wright KC, prosecuting, told the court: 'For weeks this child had been violently assaulted and her death, by that terrible head injury, was simply the end point in that campaign of violence to which she had been subjected.'

Videos taken last June, before Simpson came into her life, showed the little girl looking healthy, happily

playing and smiling. Walker had suffered from domestic violence and she had two cameras installed in her home, with one overlooking the back of the house.

The camera showed mum Walker was a frequent drinker, sometimes downing up to 10 cans of Stella Artois, and boyfriend Simpson was a habitual cannabis smoker, while the couple sold cannabis at times.

CCTV footage also proved Isabelle suffered a broken leg while in the sole care of Simpson.

Visiting Walker and Isabelle on one occasion, Walker's concerned mother said it 'looks like she is being abused' after Isabelle's leg was broken.

Protect

Simpson also bathed Isabelle without Walker's permission while he was supposedly looking after the two-year-old as her mother attended a hospital appointment.

Prosecutor Mr Wright said Walker did not protect her daughter.

He added: 'On the contrary, she delayed, she deflected, and she failed to act, when action was most urgently required.'

Outside the court, Isabelle's father Josh Welsh said his daughter's murderers deserved whole-life sentences.

He added: 'My little girl... my whole life has been shattered, my whole family.'

'It means the world to me that we have justice for Isabelle.'

Murderer James Desborough

Fan of serial slayer on TV convicted of two killings

BY ROD MINCHIN

A FAN of TV serial killer Dexter was convicted of murdering two homeless men and hiding their dismembered bodies.

James Desborough, who also killed his cellmate while awaiting trial, left the remains of Claudio Aquilino, 57, and Daniel Coleman, 43, in woods in Cornwall last year.

The former builder, 40, is already serving life for strangling Steven Kempster in Exeter jail.

As Winchester crown court jurors returned their unanimous guilty verdicts yesterday, Desborough did not show any emotion.

The trial heard Mr Aquilino and Mr Coleman had lived with Desborough at a hostel and were last seen with him. After killing them he spent their money on drugs and alcohol.

Predators

Police found 1,900 burned bone fragments from Mr Aquilino's body in a stream at Sticker Woods, near St Austell, where Desborough lived in a wooden cabin.

Parts of Mr Coleman's body were discovered in a shallow grave nearby.

Desborough told a forensic biologist who was searching the woods for Mr Coleman's body he 'particularly enjoyed the dismemberment scenes' in Dexter.

Police found several handwritten notes in the cabin, including one which read: 'I know I am a killer and ready to execute any predators.'

Desborough had denied both murders.

The father-of-one had claimed to jurors it was a 'series of unfortunate circumstances' that the men died on his land.

He had previously admitted preventing the lawful burial of their bodies, claiming that he had found Mr Aquilino hanging from a tree - then discovered Mr Coleman dead in a stream a month later.

Desborough is due to be sentenced today.

Sunny's mother Jasmine

THE mother of a stillborn baby whose body was found in a paper bag on the floor of a funeral director's sobbed as she told him: 'I trusted you with the most precious person in my life.'

Jasmine Beverley was reading her victim impact statement to Robert Bush, owner of Legacy Independent Funeral Directors, who has admitted 67 offences including 30 counts of preventing a lawful and decent burial.

Thirty-one bodies were

BY KATIE DICKINSON

found at his premises in Hull after he told their families they had been cremated.

Standing in the dock at the city's crown court, he showed no emotion as Ms Beverley said: 'My son Sunny was born sleeping but he was loved long before he entered this world and he will be loved for the rest of my life.'

'When a parent loses a baby, all they hope for is that their child will be treated with

dignity, care and respect.' She and her partner visited Sunny at Legacy in Hull on June 16, 2022, and left him a family photo, a blue fleece blanket and flowers, the court heard.

A small service took place the next day in its chapel.

When they returned, Bush gave them a little blue coffin, saying Sunny's ashes were inside. But almost two years later his body was recovered by police. Bush will be sentenced after five days of victims' statements. Yesterday

• day two - the court also heard from the family of Jim Porter, 80, whose body was found with his hospital ID bands on his wrists and ankle.

His daughter Tina Thames said she thought his coffin did not look big enough. Since finding out what happened she has had 'nightmares of bodies piled up... like Auschwitz'.

Angela Scottow, daughter of Terry White, 73, whose body was also recovered, said: 'Robert Bush treated Dad like a piece of meat.'

Hope of Breakfast 'reset' as Naga moves on

BBC Breakfast insiders are hoping for a 'reset' at the troubled show after presenter Naga Munchetty announced she was quitting.

The 51-year-old is leaving to host BBC Radio 5 Live's breakfast show. A source at the broadcaster said: 'The new job for Naga seems the best result for everyone. It was not a happy ship on Breakfast.'

They added: 'However you look at it, hosting BBC Breakfast is a much bigger job than working on Five Live.'

BY MARK JEFFERIES

A second source added: 'After all the turmoil, it's clear a reset is needed.'

It also comes after a disagreement with BBC Breakfast's editor Richard Frediani, with Naga having reportedly raised concerns about his conduct. He was later cleared of bullying claims.

A separate probe into Naga is no longer active and she will take over in her new role from Rachel Burden and Rick Edwards, who announced on Tuesday morning that they would step down in December. Naga will have a co-host who is yet to be recruited.

She first joined Breakfast in 2009

and has co-hosted with Charlie Stayt since 2014. She has presented Radio 5's mid-morning programme since 2021 and is paid around £360,000.

Announcing the news, Naga said: 'I'm thrilled to be joining 5 Live Breakfast in January. Live news, great conversations and connecting with audiences are what I love most about broadcasting, and 5 Live does all of that brilliantly.'

'It has been a privilege to be part of the BBC Breakfast TV team for the past 17 years, working alongside an incredibly talented and hard-working group of journalists who are not only outstanding colleagues but also great

friends. Presenting a flagship programme on 5 Live is an opportunity that was simply too good to pass up.

'It will take a huge amount of work and require 100% of my focus and energy, and I'm really looking forward to throwing myself into the role.'

Rachel will move to present the weekday mid-morning programme. She said: 'After 15 years hosting 5 Live Breakfast, I've decided it's time for a change - and I'm really excited.

'It's been an absolute joy and privilege to be part of our listeners' mornings for all these years.'

Problems with sleep are rife

Job stress key cause of sleep disorders

BY MARTIN BAGOT

NINE in 10 over-50s suffer from sleep disorders at least sometimes, a study suggests, with work-related stress found to be a main culprit.

In a year-long study of workers aged 50 to 66, 92% met the clinical threshold for a sleep disorder at least once.

Researchers, who gathered data from wearable tech and questionnaires, used AI to determine that work stress was one of the key factors in predicting sleep problems.

They also found that almost 70% of participants experienced persistent, clinically significant sleep problems, despite having no diagnosed history of sleep disorders.

Waking

The main problem among the 45 study participants was not duration but rather episodes of waking once they had nodded off, scientists said.

Study leader Professor Thanasi Tsanas, of Edinburgh University, said: 'I was genuinely surprised by the sheer scale of sleep problems we uncovered in this otherwise undiagnosed group.'

Prof Tsanas's co-author, Dr Belinda Steffan, said: 'Our study highlights that sleep is a workplace health and wellbeing issue.

'Organisations and employers must consider the impact of work-related sleep problems on their workforce, focusing on workers over 50.'

As many viewers opt for Netflix as the BBC

BY JOSIE CLARKE

TV viewers are now as likely to turn to Netflix as they are the BBC when deciding what to watch, a survey for Ofcom suggests.

The US-based streamer is now the first choice for 26% of viewers with the BBC at 25%, according to the regulator's annual Media Nations report. ITV is the first choice for 15%.

Meanwhile, the amount of time people spend watching YouTube on TV has doubled since 2022 to an average 19 minutes a day per person, with older viewers increasingly turning to the platform.

Across all devices in the home, total YouTube viewing rose to 41 minutes per person a day, up from 33 minutes in 2022. Among people aged 75 and over, weekly YouTube viewing rose

US streaming giant is massively popular

from 28% in 2022 to 33% last year. Ofcom said that the figures underline the 'growing challenges' faced by traditional broadcasters from global streaming platforms and online video services.

Despite a 9% year-on-year increase in the growth of on-demand TV such as BBC iPlayer, ITVX and 5 streaming, this was not enough to offset the continued decline in audiences for traditional channels.

Last year, 70% of people in the UK

watched content from traditional broadcasters - including live TV, recorded playback and on-demand services - for at least 15 minutes in an average week. That's down from 73% in 2024 and 78% in 2022. Declines were seen across all age groups, including viewers aged 75 and over.

Podcasts

Netflix screened the two most-watched programmes overall in 2025 - K-Pop Demon Hunters and Adolescence - with the BBC so far this year screening eight of the 10 most-watched programmes, including The Night Manager and Run Away.

Celebrity Traitors and its video podcast Traitors Uncloaked is this year's biggest title so far, with the finale attracting an average audience of 14.9

million across BBC One and iPlayer. England's World Cup semi-final defeat to Argentina on July 15 attracted a peak audience of 24 million viewers across BBC platforms.

Aside from screens, 93% of adults listen to some form of audio content - and 87% listen to live radio every week. More than a quarter of adults now listen to podcasts each week.

Kate Davies, group director for strategy and research at Ofcom, said: 'Competition is fierce. But traditional broadcasters are showing resilience in the big, national moments as well as growing their digital offerings.

'To thrive and survive in the current landscape, it's more important than ever for companies to understand changing audience habits and adapt their strategies to meet people where they are.'

LIVE bullets were fired from a French warship 300 yards from Tory Chris Philp in what he claimed was an attempt to intimidate him.

The Shadow Home Secretary was being interviewed about cross-Channel migration by the BBC's Michael Keohan aboard a fishing vessel when a patrolman on the naval patrol boat loosed off around 17 shots. Mr Philip said he had come under fire.

He added "There was no notice or training exercise in place. France are doing little to stop the illegal journey of tens of thousands of immigrants across the Channel and they are seemingly now intimidating anyone who tries to expose it.

"The French warship fired 17 live rounds behind us as it was at its closest point to us. There was no warning at all. It felt like these were warning shots."

The French government said its boat – the PSP Flamant – had been carrying out a handgun firing exercise off Cap Gris-Nez.

It added: "The regulatory signals required under international standards for this firing exercise were displayed, and the safety area was respected. This exercise was unrelated to the presence of a British vessel in

the area, which was outside the range of the shots fired. The Flamant was not involved in a migrant boat surveillance operation."

Mr Philip insisted: "There were no warnings about live firing training exercises. It looked and sounded exactly like deliberate intimidation." He later filmed what he claimed were French officials watching on as a boat of asylum seekers launched. On a visit to Derby, Prime Minister Andy Burnham said the government was tackling crossings but there was more to do.

Meanwhile, people smugglers launched a dinghy from Fecamp, south of Calais, apparently aiming for Eastbourne. The 70-mile trip would avoid the crackdown on traditional crossing points. A British Border Force vessel picked up the dinghy.

'There were no warnings. It looked and sounded like intimidation'

Train drivers' anger at lack of loo access

TRAIN drivers are threatening industrial action amid claims they are still being forced to go hours without access to a toilet, putting their health at risk.

The Aslef union says some drivers are regularly expected to work for long periods without a toilet break, increasing the risk of bladder problems and other serious medical conditions.

A year ago, train operators and Network Rail pledged to improve toilet and washroom facilities after Richard Hines, HM chief inspector of railways at the Office of Rail and Road, told them "reliable welfare facilities [are] a basic requirement

BY FRANCES MILLAR

in any civilised society". But Aslef claims little has changed since then.

General secretary Dave Calfe said: "We need action, not broken promises, to improve toilet facilities for drivers and to reduce the time drivers are expected to go without a toilet break."

Mr Calfe hit out at the industry's "inaction" adding: "We are calling them out publicly and telling them in no uncertain terms that it is time for them to deliver [or] there will be consequences."

Aslef is not ruling out industrial action if there is no progress.

Burnham's social care vision may define reign

OVER the past three decades there have been 22 attempts to reform social care, but the system remains in crisis.

Andy Burnham will set out his vision for grappling with the issue that he admits will lead to the 'collapse' of the NHS if left untouched.

The new Prime Minister tried and failed as Health Secretary in 2009 to pursue a universal care service. Now, sadly, he has a deeply personal motivation for prioritising change. Mr Burnham's father has Alzheimer's and does not know his son now leads the country.

The PM said it has shown him how the system is broken and cannot be left as it is.

Many will share the experience of being left frustrated when trying to secure care for their loved ones. It will take determination for progress to finally be made and Mr Burnham's acknowledgment that he is willing to expend political capital on it is to be welcomed.

But the public, who have not had a say on who their new Prime Minister is, will be rightly sceptical. They have heard these promises all before. The English system is one of the least generous among 11 nations picked for a social care study, including compared to the rest of the UK.

How any reforms are funded will be absolutely central to whether the public supports changes they have never been given a chance to vote on.

Costly new taxes when levels are already at a record high would be a dangerous move from a Prime Minister without a mandate.

Polanski is unfit to lead

ZACK Polanski already had a questionable track record when it comes to decency. Among his many missteps, the Green Party leader had to apologise after sharing a social media post condemning the actions of police officers who arrested the suspect in the Golders Green attack.

It should have at least given him pause for thought when it comes to mindlessly pumping out fodder to his followers. It seems Mr Polanski did not learn his lesson – and shared a post that included a photo of a man wearing a top featuring the image of a guillotine with the words: 'We're only making plans for Nigel.'

It has been condemned across the political spectrum and Reform have reported the image to the police, saying the post incites violence.

Mr Polanski apparently was unaware of the image, one among many, when he shared it and has not apologised. It shows staggering carelessness in the first instance, and a certain callousness in the second.

Mr Polanski's leadership has once again been called into question and found sadly wanting.

Honouring a Good Life

UNSURPRISINGLY, the funeral for Dame Penelope Keith, who died last month aged 86, was attended by some starry names, including TV greats Robert Lindsay, Neil Pearson and Patricia Hodge.

There was even a former Prime Minister, Sir John Major.

But it was striking that villagers in Milford, Surrey, where she lived, lined the streets for the funeral procession to pay their respects.

Proof she really did live The Good Life.

PM's challenge is to get youngsters out and working

PRIME Minister Andy Burnham will never have a better time to crack down on youth sickness benefits than now. Part of the £333 billion welfare bill mountain, Pips, or personal independence payments, scandalously pay young people signed off with anxiety issues up to £100 more than those youngsters working part-time minimum wage jobs. By cutting Britain's enormous benefits bill, Burnham will be able to afford his other pledges and he will never be more popular among the majority of his backbenchers than now. It's not an exaggeration to say he must seize the moment or doom us to further decline.

Some 87,000 16 and 17-year-olds are claiming Pips, with two thirds receiving £194 a week to cover the costs of mental health issues, including anxiety, depression and autism.

If a teenager worked a 12-hour week for minimum wage, they would take home just £94, while claiming benefits would net them twice as much. Patently, this non-means-tested benefit is unfair and a clear disincentive to work.

An epidemic of Pips means that the number of teenagers not in education, employment or training – so-called Neets – has ballooned to more than one million. Benefits that break the habit of going out to work could in fact be adding to young people feeling depressed and alienated, while also adding to the nation's debt mountain.

THE total number of people claiming incapacity benefits is projected to rise from 1.4 million to a staggering four million by 2030. Unlike the rest of the world where employment rates have returned to pre-Covid levels, Britain still has 700,000 more people out of work over health concerns. Sadly, Britons have been busy learning to

Andy Burnham discusses his plans on BBC show Sunday With Laura Kuenssberg

Tim Newark

Political commentator

claim more and more benefits and left-leaning governments have smoothed the path.

Labour tax rises have not helped either, decimating traditional jobs for young people, as employers are discouraged from taking on young workers by an increase in national insurance and the minimum wage.

The easy availability of benefits has only fed into this doom loop of youth unemployment.

Faced with a similar rising number of Neets, the Dutch government tackled the problem by dramatically cutting the minimum wage for teenagers, encouraging businesses and trades to take on less experienced workers.

The Dutch rate encourages school leavers into work. The Dutch lowest wage is £3.83 an hour, compared to the £10.85 Rachel Reeves imposed on companies which kicks in next month. The Dutch have also insisted on all young benefits

claimants doing community work. As a result, the number of Neets in the Netherlands has fallen to 4.9% compared to 12.8% in the UK.

In the UK, the easily available benefits mean industries like catering are failing to get the young people they need to train for the next generation of service workers.

Instead, roles are being filled by hard-working migrants.

Tackling this systemic problem is part of Burnham's drive to take on long-term issues that other governments haven't dared to touch.

Despite winning a landslide victory in 2024, Keir Starmer faltered at his first attempt to roll back rocketing welfare when left-wing backbench MPs threatened revolt over cuts.

In contrast, Burnham has won the approval of these same radical lefties and now has a short window of opportunity to push through some

much-needed reforms. He has boasted of his determination to change the last 40 years of politics and this is the moment he must live up to that pledge.

He's made it clear Labour has only one more chance to prove it can govern responsibly and effectively. This is the challenge.

BY insisting that young people will not receive Pips unless they are in training or voluntary work, he will encourage a healthier nation better attuned to finding work. By reducing disincentives to employment he will also generate more money to pay for the promises he is making, including his revolution in social care.

Burnham likes to talk big and now he must push through those changes while he is riding high in the polls and has the support of some otherwise rebellious MPs.

Favouring trades over university courses, Burnham knows Britain's future depends on encouraging the working spirit.

By stopping young people from idling at home with fake health issues, he will have done our nation a tremendous favour overall. Backing the genuinely working class.

FROM THE HEART

Fergie's striking it rich from ex Paddy

THOSE who claim to be in the know are suggesting Sarah Ferguson, currently lying low, will be delivered from tedious debt by a bequest from her deceased ex, F1 hospitality multimillionaire Paddy McNally. Apparently the two remained close and McNally, who died last week at the age of 88, offered

Sarah sanctuary despite her grubby association with convicted paedophile Jeffrey Epstein. Friends think McNally's last grand gesture of support for his former girlfriend will be a sizeable cash legacy.

It is thought that he knew the profligate ex-duchess too well to leave her a huge cheque. Instead he will have protected the money by making it part of a trust that pays her an annuity so she can't run through it in her usual extravagant fashion.

A thwacking great chunk of dosh from an ex you split from in 1985? No wonder they say the rich do things differently.

Brand new Ed Sec Powell's quackers

OUR new Education Secretary Lucy Powell isn't awfully keen on facts and figures. She claimed to have been the only pupil at her Catholic sixth form college to make it to Oxford.

She wasn't. She also claimed to have disliked Somerville College because she felt like a 'duck out of water', another example of her casual disregard for accuracy.

The correct phrase is like 'a fish out of water'. If Powell doesn't know her ducks from her fish, how can she possibly have all the former 'in a row'?

The story of my life, read me like a book

RATHER like Lindsay Bagshaw in Anthony Powell's A Dance To The Music Of Time, I have always believed 'books do furnish a room'. It doesn't matter if they are stacked on a wonky IKEA shelf or exquisitely arranged in an ornately carved mahogany George III bookcase. Mine, some battered, some first editions, reflect the good, bad and downright dreadful of my life.

AA Milne's When We Were Very Young stands next to Desmond Morris's The Naked Ape, Fanny Hill's Memoirs Of A Woman Of Pleasure, beside Chaucer's A Parliament Of Fowls. The books you were forced to read are displayed alongside those you blissfully read and re-read. Gifts from long ago exes, inscribed with lyrical tributes to my youthful charms are flanked by dreaded O level texts and novels so forgettable I can't recall a single syllable.

Elizabeth David's recipes, daubed with ancient blobs of gravy, lean on Larousse's majestic Mythology. Yeats huddles with Proust who has ever since I moved in 24 years ago and stuffed my 'library' into the previous incumbent's shelves any old how, vowing to sort them into a sensible aesthetic arrangement when I had a minute - leaned comfortably against LM Montgomery's mesmerising Anne Of Green Gables.

I like to think anyone perusing my agglomeration of books would know instantly if we'd hit it off. I've certainly been guilty of leafing through a stranger's tomes and deciding - purely because of their fondness for Saul Bellow or Barbara Cartland - that I love them to bits or have nothing whatsoever to say to them.

Why, you wonder, am I musing about lifelong personal libraries? The estate of the late, beguiling Snowman creator Raymond Briggs has donated his thousand-plus collection of treasured books to Oxfam. Fans have swooped in to marvel at the 30 comic annuals from the 1950s and works by Aubrey Beardsley, EH Shepard, Charles Schulz and Posy Simmonds thought to have helped shape Briggs' own inimitable illustrative style.

I bet you've guessed where I am going with this. Of course, I am pondering whether to inflict the disposal of my piles of well-worn books on my children when I shuffle off this mortal coil, or whether to start weeding out the duds now?

The problem is that I've become somewhat wedded to my motley library. Each volume - I know this sounds stupidly sentimental - feels like a part of me - yes, even the novels I have entirely forgotten.

On reflection, I can't bear to part with any of them. Procrastination reigns.

Strictly idiotic cha cha changes

OH DEAR! is nothing sacred? Is the BBC's deftly but deadly determination to attract younger viewers spreading to Strictly?

Not only has the programme signed five unknown professionals who have been posing, bare washboard babies to the fore, looking as if they are auditioning for a K-pop band, they've also engaged Love Island winner Cach Mercer, left, and - I kid you not - Kim Kerdeshian's hairdresser.

Why don't bosses get it? Strictly is for oldies, babies and all dance lovers in between. Give seniors a Lulu or a Gloria Hunniford and we make sure our grandchildren get behind them.

We are still channelling the great Leo Goodman. We want names that we recognise dancing with charm and elegance, not half naked teens gyrating like pale dancers who've mislaid their poles.

WRITING about my new YouTube show At Home, With Vanessa, a prominent female columnist kindly shows sisterly solidarity and encouragement.

I'm having my front room turned into a studio - 15 delightful builders are toiling as I write - and, as I did on the Big Breakfast Bed, will interview some honoured guests in my boudoir. She wishes me luck and then adds: 'You must realise now you're 64 and single, it's harder to entice anyone into your bedroom.' She's right and wrong.

Surprisingly, I haven't found any shortage of chaps keen to join me beneath the duvet for a spot of slap and tickle.

Interestingly, would be contenders have ranged from early 30s to mid 70s. I have realised, however, that I want more than a meaningless roll in the hay. I've been a tad picky but I would like to reassure anyone worried I might be enduring unremitting chastity that generous offers to engage me in 'the hurly-burly of the chaise longue' continue in abundance.

INCOMPETENT AND WASTEFUL WATER COMPANIES TURN ON HOSEPIPE BANS LIKE A TAP

FOR goodness' sake, another hosepipe ban has been plonked upon us and, boy, are we fuming! Callers to my LBC show described unrepaired leaks pumping umpteen gallons of wasted water and water companies too

disorganised to bother stemming the flow. We all know shareholders have profited handsomely from generous dividends while Victorian infrastructure is left to crumble. We are keen to save water but livid about being corralled

into another ban by the sheer incompetence of water regulator Ofuut. Good Lord, these businesses have a monopoly to sell a product we cannot survive without, how can they not afford to keep vital pipes up to scratch?

HOW THE BIGGEST NAMES IN SPORT MADE IT TO THE TOP

ON SALE FROM ALL GOOD BOOKSHOPS AND AMAZON

PAUL ZANON BEHIND THE BRILLIANCE

Bringing a heart more to be the top

Frances Millar

To be frank...

WHAT a treat to see Meghan Markle pop up on MasterChef Australia this week. I know I'm in the minority here, but I'm a fan. It's the commitment I admire. Maintaining a perfect public persona with Olympic-level dedication is such a thrill to watch. Every appearance is like the balance beam final, drawing gasps when there's a wobble.

Which is why I thoroughly enjoyed her TV series. Amid the flower sprinkles and harvest baskets, you could occasionally see the mask slip. Like the manic enthusiasm she conjured up to compensate for tennis star Naomi Osaka's flat expression and energy at being made to paint a mug.

For someone who bangs on about authenticity, Meghan is about as genuine as a Dolce and Banana handbag and it served as a reminder that a Pinterest board is not a substitute for a personality.

Still, I lapped up every episode and was disappointed it wasn't renewed for a third series.

So I eagerly tuned into her turn as a guest judge on MasterChef, filmed during her and Harry's recent jaunt down under. And it didn't disappoint. From the off Meghan was welcomed with an introduction of Attenborough-level respect: 'A global icon. A philanthropist. A humanitarian. A woman known around the world for her heart, her voice and her deep love of home cooking.'

Hmmm, OK. 'All the way from sunny California...' True. 'The Duchess of Sussex...' Also true. 'Meghan... Markle.' Oof, here we go. She's not gonna like that.

Fortunately for the host, Meghan had a long dramatic walk into the studio so couldn't correct her on camera as she did to her own guest Mindy Kaling reminding her through gritted teeth: 'You know I'm Sussex now.'

After waffling on about 'fresh 'erbs and spices' Meghan unveiled the challenge. A vast red curtain swept aside to reveal a table laden with bowls of lemons, macadamia nuts, quince, strawberries, celeriac, Jerusalem artichokes, Brussels sprouts, apples and carrots.

'There is a lot of optionality,' Meghan declared with a straight face, before asking them to choose a

LONCE again Count Binface's intergalactic antennae have picked up exactly what Britain is thinking. The comedy candidate has unveiled a 20-point manifesto for the Clacton by-election, which, at this stage, is more detailed than anything we've had from the Prime Minister.

The manifesto takes aim at rival Nigel Farage, with a pledge not to 'accept £5million gifts from crypto billionaires (on Earth)', while also proposing that MPs who resign mid-Parliament should be barred from standing in the by-election they trigger. Another pledge would force MPs who switch parties to face the voters again - a jab at Farage allies Robert Jenrick and Danny Kruger.

Richard Osman may also want to keep a close eye on the result. Binface has vowed to slap a windfall tax on 'cosy crime novels written (or 'written') by celebrities'. In a nod to Clacton, he also promises to make arcade grabbers fairer 'so players actually have a chance to win', and he goes 1p better than Burnham with bus fares capped at £1.99. Binface isn't the only joke candidate with three from the Monster Raving Loony party, and actor Laurence Fox standing. It will certainly be interesting, if completely unnecessary.

'hero item' and find culinary inspiration from 'the story behind it'. Later in the show Harry made an inexplicable cameo, his big beardy ginger face looming into a phone.

She had already made multiple references to 'my husband' so it should have come as no surprise, though I am always suspicious of couples who do everything together.

Still, I really think Netflix should give them another go. Few things unite us as a nation quite like hating Argentina and collectively rolling our eyes at them two.

MASS EVACUATION FROM FRENCH WILDFIRES

WILDFIRES PHOTO: © 2023 / JAFP

'It's just scary to know that the fire could get this close'

BY JEREMY ARMSTRONG

STARK images of wildfires raging on the outskirts of Bordeaux reveal the charred shells of houses after terrified locals fled.

Firefighters working in searing 39C heat are struggling to contain the flames, with 42,000 hectares and 240 homes already lost. More than 300,000 people have been evacuated across France and Spain.

Smoky

Bordeaux resident Chris de Abrea said the smell of burning filled the air as choking black clouds loomed over the city in the south-west. He said: "It reminds me of Pompeii...The air was quite smoky; it was difficult to breathe."

"The main concerns for people are, 'where do I go from here if I don't have family?' and then, 'will I see my home again?'"

He added: "It's just scary to know that the fire could get this close."

Pictures from Le Porge, around

25 miles east, show how the blaze destroyed properties in its path.

French President Emmanuel Macron said: "We must understand we are facing a completely unprecedented wildfire.

"The situation we are dealing with is the most severe we have ever recorded. Every available

resource has been deployed with more than 1,500 military personnel helping to tackle the fire." Firebreaks have been dug and reinforced to stop the fire's advance.

One resident told how she was evacuated from her home in Saint-Medard-en-Jalles – less than 30

minutes from the city – on Saturday morning, along with her British partner, and their son, 19. She said: "All of us and two dogs left and escaped to Agen, where we booked into a hotel.

"There's been a huge wave of solidarity here with hundreds and hundreds of people offering a

room or two to those who have had to be evacuated, and 9,000 people registered as volunteers to help with various things. We're all worried things could deteriorate again though, as we enter the fourth heatwave of the year.

"Being evacuated felt very surreal. You see it in films and in the news, but you don't really think it's going to happen to you, so you feel like you're seeing yourself from the outside, and everything happens in slow motion."

Alert

"I couldn't help thinking that maybe this was the last time I would see my house.

"We left our house in the car at 1.45am. Lots of cars were coming out of driveways, there was no panic. The flames were still 14km (8.7 miles) away, and we trusted everything would be done to stop them from reaching the suburbs."

Spain's national weather service is also on high alert due to intense heat and vast swathes of tinder dry countryside.

Jack Shepherd looks at his lawyer in a Georgia court in 2019

Speedboat killer hit girlfriend with set of barbecue tongs

SPEEDBOAT killer Jack Shepherd has pleaded guilty to violently assaulting his girlfriend, including attacking her with a set of barbecue tongs.

He struck the woman, in her 50s, with the tongs, pinned her down and punched her, and damaged her keys, in three separate incidents.

The offences sparked Shepherd's recall to prison, a court heard yesterday. He was originally jailed for manslaughter in 2018 over the death of Charlotte Brown, 24, when his speedboat crashed during a first date on the River Thames in Central London.

But he skipped his Old Bailey trial while on the run in Georgia, before he was eventually extradited back to the UK to serve his sentence.

Bearded Shepherd, 38, appeared

trolling and coercive behaviour, which will remain on file.

In February 2025, he pinned down his partner at the time, punched her and attacked her in the chest with the tongs. He also damaged her keys that month.

He was recalled to jail on September 13, 2025, for breaching his licence by allegedly writing to his latest victim in breach of his bail conditions, and missing his 11pm curfew to return to his approved premises.

He will be sentenced at the West London court on September 4.

Shepherd was set free on licence in January 2024 after serving less than six years for killing Charlotte.

She was thrown from Shepherd's speedboat when it hit a submerged tree trunk in December 2015, and died from cold water immersion.

PENELOPE KEITH 1940-2026

BY ALLISTER HAGGER

DAME Penelope Keith was given a fitting final farewell yesterday with one last round of applause in her home village.

Residents of Milford, in Surrey, lined the streets to clap as the beloved actress's funeral cortege passed through.

Dame Penelope, who delighted millions in comedies To The Manor Born and The Good Life, died last month aged 86 following a cancer battle.

Her coffin was driven through Milford, the village near Godalming she had called home for almost five decades, on its way to the service at Guildford Cathedral.

Former prime minister Sir John Major was among the famous faces at the funeral, attending with his wife Norma.

Several television stars were there, including My Family actor Robert Lindsay and Drop The Dead Donkey's Neil Pearson.

Miranda star Patricia Hodge and Cold Feet's Robert Bathurst also attended.

Moving

Broadcaster and writer Gyles Brandreth was a guest, and shared a tribute on social media: 'I am on my way to Guildford Cathedral for the funeral of Dame Penelope Keith – a wonderful actress and a lovely person, funny and wise and kind.'

He added in a follow-up post: 'There was laughter and tears at Guildford Cathedral this morning. A truly beautiful and deeply moving funeral service for Dame Penelope Keith. What a lady and what a perfect service. It caught her completely. She was very special.'

Dame Penelope's family had confirmed the news of her death at the end of last month in a statement. It read: 'We are deeply saddened to announce that Dame Penelope Keith died peacefully whilst living with cancer at her home in Surrey, where she had lived for more than 50 years.'

A good life

THE idea of sending a chart-topping two-piece boyband barely in their 20s to China as cultural ambassadors for the UK would be considered laughable by most. After all, it's regarded as one of the most authoritarian countries in the world, not to mention a serious security concern to other nations.

But that's exactly what happened four decades ago when chart-toppers Wham! swapped screaming arenas for state banquets as the first Western pop stars to perform in communist China.

By April 1985, George Michael, then 21, and his best friend Andrew Ridgeley, then 22, were accustomed to audiences of screaming teens and being mobbed wherever they went. However, for just under two weeks, they performed the unusual role of diplomatic attachés as they navigated the delicate political culture at numerous receptions and banquets, while performing their hits at two shows in Beijing and Guangzhou.

Now, a remarkable new documentary, Wham! 10 Days in China, reveals the extraordinary political, cultural and personal story behind the historic visit – whose true impact the director Mike Christie believes has only become clear with the passing of time.

Utilising astonishing archive footage and new interviews with the people who were there – including Ridgeley, who returned to the country for the first time in 40 years – the film delves deep into the legacy of the visit to examine its impact.

'Andrew hadn't been back since 1985, he was very keen to come with us,' says Christie, speaking to the Express as the film is released this week.

'We were never going to film scenes of Andrew going to this restaurant he went to with George or whatever.

'It wasn't a trip down memory lane. It wasn't that kind of film.

'But he became interested in the idea of doing it because he wanted to understand the legacy and the [tour's] impact. And the only real way to understand that was to come with us.'

Director Christie describes that impact as 'staggering'.

He says: 'I think we all felt amazed by the way the legacy unfolded. We'd done research calls, so we knew that there was a positive story to tell. But we didn't expect it to climb to the kind of dizzy heights it did. It was an extraordinary revelation.'

The tour was originally designed for capitalist reasons – some irony given the communist location.

At the time Wham! were trying to break America, which involved extensive touring across the vast country. They had enjoyed US chart topping success with Wake Me Up Before You Go-Go and Michael's solo single Careless Whisper, but they needed an extra push to stay at the very top.

There was just one problem: Michael was suffering from undiagnosed vocal cord polyps, so a lengthy US tour was out of the question (he later underwent successful surgery in 1988 to remove a cyst from his vocal chords).

STEP forward Simon Napier-Bell, the band's manager, who devised an ingenious publicity scheme for the Western duo to play two concerts in China, thereby guaranteeing global headlines including in America.

But the stories were far from positive. One major issue was film director Lindsay Anderson, then 61, a leading figure in the Free Cinema who was hired to make a documentary about the trip despite his lack of

Director Mike Christie was amazed by God

interest in Wham!. Things got off to a bad start. Ridgeley immediately disliked Anderson, believing it was 'bloody ridiculous' that an auteur known for his cinematic work, with no interest in pop music, would do the film justice. With his lens focused on Chinese society rather than Wham!, Anderson was sacked and the original documentary was aborted.

Some of that original footage has been reconstructed on screen in Christie's film. In it, Ridgeley's disdain for the tour and the press, who followed the band around, are impossible to mask.

In the singer's defence he had fallen under a huge amount of media scrutiny, with the paparazzi portraying him as a playboy and party animal. But it's safe to say he was not seen at his best with his frustration visibly on show. In one scene, he walks out of a press conference after taking offence to questions

from journalists. Christie today insists the now 63-year-old Ridgeley was adamant that this footage remain left in his documentary.

'I was a bit nervous because when we did the first cut, I remember thinking, 'Do I need to warn Andrew that, by his own admission, he doesn't think he was particularly well behaved at times? Do I need to warn him that actually comes across as having a bit of an attitude?'

'[But] he watched it and said, 'I'm completely comfortable with it. The most important thing is that the film is authentic. Would I behave the same way now? No. Did I feel that way then? Yes. It stays.''

Christie says he was impressed that both Ridgeley and Michael's estate made no moves to 'sanitise' the film. 'To give them their dues when they saw cuts, they fought to keep some of the more uncomfortable moments in because they wanted it to be authentic,' he adds.

The result is a warts-and-all account of the 1985 tour utilising scenes from Anderson's

77-minute shelved documentary titled If You Were There and never-before-seen footage.

Christie started work on the documentary in 2024, after discovering scores of cans with the original reels of film. Some of it had been recut already. Following Anderson's firing, Wham! hired music video director Andy Morahan to refashion his footage on everyday Chinese society into a promotional fan film focused on the band. His edited film, Wham! in China: Foreign Skies, was released in 1986 and was shown to 72,000 fans at the duo's final concert at Wembley Stadium in June of that year.

Still, Christie admits he had no idea what original footage remained when he set out to locate it.

'When we first proposed the film, we thought we might be making it from Foreign Skies, plus the unused, unseen cut by Lindsay Anderson of his documentary, which was ultimately the one that got him fired,' he says.

'But once we began to get the film cans

into the post house there was this huge long list. No one knew what was in them – they had been in storage, and no one had looked. There was over 20 hours of new material."

He breaks into a smile, chuffed at the memory. "So we were able to make a completely new film from there."

Christie's film certainly makes for a riveting and compelling watch.

"We came in knowing there were five layers of narrative," he continues. "There was China, which was obviously a major thing for us – we felt that story hadn't been given its time. Then there was the music story, the press story, the [failed] documentary story, and George and Andrew's personal relationship," says Christie.

The latter is what truly surprised him. "We could see this amazing bond between George and Andrew," he says. "These were two guys who'd known each other since they were 10 or 11. And I was really pleasantly surprised how that chemistry came across.

"You see it in the body language and the

honesty and their closeness, and I think that's a great thing. I think we have a lot to thank Andrew for within the [later] career and appreciation of George Michael."

M

ICHAEL died in 2016, so the new film will undoubtedly be a boon for his fans. And there are tantalis-

ing insights into pop stardom in all its messy beauty. In one intimate moment, Ridgeley and Michael bicker about a speech they have to write for a banquet attended by Chinese officials while travelling in the back of a car.

Christie, who admits he was "relatively neutral about Wham!" beforehand (although his sister was "an avid fan"), developed a new appreciation for the group.

"I was staggered by the quality of the live performances. I didn't expect a 12-piece band with that level of musicianship," he admits. "It's very easy to look back on

Wham! and think, 'Oh, they were a pop band, they were a boy band'. But I've worked in music throughout my whole life, and I was genuinely and very happily surprised by the quality of those performances and those musicians."

While the duo's talent and verve are never in dispute, the film's most jarring scenes are the cuts to the immobile crowds. Chinese authorities strictly banned the audience from standing or dancing – something that was surely difficult given Wham!'s infectious pop tunes – so individuals reacted to each song by clapping politely in their seats.

Indeed, at one point the footage shows an audience member being dragged out of the arena for attempting to dance mid-performance. It is both disturbing and a fascinating reflection on the oppressive Chinese culture of the time.

In another unrelated shocking incident, one of the backing musicians suffered a severe mental breakdown on a flight to their second show. He stabbed himself in the

stomach and forced his way into the aircraft's cockpit, causing the plane to briefly plummet. Neither Michael nor Ridgeley were on the flight but the incident overshadowed the amazing gigs.

But what of the band's cultural impact on China? Any negative moments aside, Wham!'s 10-day visit influenced many people who had the privilege of being able to get tickets to the shows.

One man, Cui Jian, speaks in the documentary about quitting his job to dedicate himself to music the day after the concert.

"He is now the equivalent of Bruce Springsteen in China," Christie says.

"He's the godfather of Chinese rock. That's what he's known as.

"So this is part of the incredible impact of the tour. I don't think we expected the level of cultural transformation that those guys could speak to."

Stone alone!

Chance for solo up-close VIP visit to world heritage site

Winners will be able to enjoy unique access to Stonehenge

IT must rank as one of the best money-can't-buy prizes ever.

For the first time in 125 years, members of the public will get the chance to visit Stonehenge and enjoy it in total solitude.

All through next month, English Heritage is offering one lucky person and their friends exclusive private access to the world-famous stone circle every day.

Visitors who book advance tickets to the Wiltshire site will automatically be entered into a daily prize draw for the unique experience.

Dagger

While the monument has welcomed millions of visitors over the past 125 years, sharing it with others is generally thought to be part of the experience. The closest regular visitors typically get to the stones tends to be on the viewing path, around 10 to 15 yards from the monument.

But with this prize, they will be able to actually wander through the stones and around them, and see how they were carved – including the ancient Bronze Age dagger marks, as well as where architect and astronomer Sir

Christopher Wren scrawled his name on a stone when he was a boy.

It is an experience that has not been reserved for the general public since admission charges were first introduced in 1901.

Georgia Butters, English Heritage's head of operations for Stonehenge, said: 'Stonehenge is one of the world's most recognisable landmarks and a bucket-list destination for millions of people across the globe.

'But very few people have ever experienced the monument in complete peace and quiet.

'This is genuinely a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to stand within the ancient stones with no one else around, soaking up the atmosphere and spirituality of this remarkable place.'

Whether taking a moment of silent contemplation among 5,000 years of history, marvelling at the sheer scale of the stones, finding ancient carvings or capturing unforgettable images, winners will enjoy a unique personal encounter with an iconic monument.

Afterwards, a breakfast roll and hot drink will be provided for each of the winner's party before they continue their day out as usual, visiting the Stonehenge exhibition, or taking part in the activities of the site's Great British Summer event.

Regardless of whether they win a private trip into the stone circle, visitors to Stonehenge this summer can also see the largest reconstruction of a prehistoric building ever constructed – a 22ft hall on Salisbury Plain.

Built using flint axes, coppiced hazel and chalk daub, the replica is based on archaeological evidence that was found nearby.

The Kusuma Neolithic Hall has been built by a team of 100 volunteers over nine months using historically authentic methods and locally sourced materials.

It is based on the remains of a large prehistoric structure, some 4,500-years-old, discovered two miles north-east of the stone circle, near the site of the Durrington Walls settlement.

Excavations there have found many thousands of animal bones and a vast quantity of Grooved Ware pottery, which provides strong evidence that

vast winter feasts took place there. Entry is included in the ticket price for Stonehenge.

To be in with a chance of winning the private access prize, visitors simply need to purchase a ticket to visit Stonehenge at least 72 hours ahead of travel.

Every advance booking made for travel during August will automatically be entered into the draw, with one winning booking selected for each day in August.

Remarkable

Winners will be notified at least 24 hours in advance and will be taken up to the monument from the Visitor Centre at 9am each day, with their exclusive access ending at 9.30am.

A member of the team at Stonehenge will be on hand during the visit, giving the winner the opportunity to learn more about the secrets of these remarkable stones and how English Heritage cares for them, for those who wish to know more.

Umpire died last September

Dickie Bird leaves £4m in will after death at 92

BY PAUL JEEVES

LEGENDARY cricket umpire Dickie Bird left an estate worth almost £4million, probate records reveal.

The Yorkshireman, who died at home in September 2025, aged 92, left a gross estate of £3,940,504.

It was reduced to £3,900,473 after debts.

Bird, who never married and had no children, placed his entire fortune into a trust which can run for up to 125 years.

His trustees are given 'absolute discretion' to distribute the money among a list of potential beneficiaries that include his sister Marjorie Wyatt and his niece Rachel Wyatt and any charity.

The son of a Barnsley miner, he became the most famous umpire in cricket history, standing in 66 Test matches and three World Cup finals between 1973 and 1996.

Generous

England and India players gave him a guard of honour at Lord's before his final Test.

His autobiography sold more than a million copies and was said to have made him a millionaire.

He lived at White Rose Cottage, a 16th century property in Staincross on the edge of Barnsley, and was made president of Yorkshire County Cricket Club in 2014.

A generous supporter of good causes, he set up the Dickie Bird Foundation in 2004 to help poor youngsters play sport. And he paid £125,000 for a new balcony at Yorkshire's Headingley ground.

Speaking in 2013 he said his one regret was not having a family.

He said: 'I gave my life to cricket, it's as simple as that.

'I never got married because I was married to the game.'

His will, signed in January 2024, asks his trustees to distribute his personal possessions in line with any wishes left among his papers.

Mayors Brian Stoyel and Julia Wingate tuck into Costa's first dual-swirl scone in Saitash store

Swirling emotions in jam or cream first row

THE latest exchange in the great "jam or cream first" on scones debate means bad news for Devon.

Traditional cream tea in Cornwall consists of putting the jam on first, while in neighbouring Devon it's always cream first - and the late Queen Elizabeth II was known to enjoy hers the Devonian way.

But a new poll by Costa has found most Britons prefer it Cornish-style. A resounding 71% insist the jam should go first, while a resolute 29% argued for cream.

Coffee chain Costa has waded into the debate by creating a half-and-half scone, on which jam and cream are piped together, using a special dual bag. To mark the occasion, the first dual-swirl scone was served to the mayors of Saitash, in Cornwall, and Kingsbridge, Devon - Brian Stoyel and Julia Wingate - at the Saitash store.

Saitash's City Stoyel said: "It's delicious - proof that sometimes, bringing people together is even better than settling the argument." Costa's Andrea Stewart said: "We wanted to create a playful compromise that celebrates both approaches."

'Not all ultra processed foods may be bad for us'

BY FRANCES MILLAR

PEOPLE striving to eat healthily should take warnings about ultra-processed foods with a side order of common sense as many are healthy, say nutritionists.

Baked beans, tinned peaches and Shreddies are all UPFs, according to the classification of processing levels.

But researchers now say the nutritional quality of food may matter more than how it is produced in the factory.

Products such as fortified breakfast cereals, whole grain bread, plant-based milk and canned fruit and beans can still contribute to a healthy diet.

And advising against UPF intake could deter people from these beneficial foods.

Habits

Experts analysed data of more than 200,000 people in America from the 1980s to the 2020s.

They were grouped into four, according to their eating habits.

The first was healthy/ultra-processed, which included plant-based milk and yoghurts. The second, healthy/minimally processed, including fresh fruit and nuts. Unhealthy/ultra-processed products, included fast food and fizzy drinks, was the third and unhealthy/minimally processed items like fruit juice, potatoes and white rice, the fourth.

Cottage pie sales soaring despite the hot weather

Summer pie boom is comfort heating

BY JOSIE CLARKE

HOT cottage pie has emerged as a surprise food trend of this scorching summer.

Sales of traditional winter comfort foods such as pies, creamy gratins and full-bodied red wine are surging despite the heatwaves, Waitrose has reported.

The grocer noted a 110% increase in sales of cottage pies, while chicken and ham gratin plus South African red wine were both up 68% over the last month.

Searches on waitrose.com for recipes for spaghetti bolognese, toad in the hole and mac 'n' cheese rose 91%, 67% and 57%.

Bosses said customers were showing signs of "feta fatigue" - bypassing summer salads in favour of cold weather comfort foods.

Stephen Parkins-Knight, Waitrose senior innovation chef, said: "When a heatwave goes on, raw salads and chilled plates can often lose their cool fast. After spending all day drained by the heat, people crave rich, grounding staples to recharge, pivoting back toward comfort and familiarity."

Grounded and

Spidey packs

TOM Holland's fourth solo Marvel movie is his most grounded, mature and packs an emotional punch, amid the usual Marvel Cinematic Universe action and cameos.

Tom Holland, his wife Zendaya and Jon Bernthal starred in Christopher Nolan's The Odyssey, a blockbuster destined to be one of the biggest billion-dollar hits of the year after its release two weeks ago.

And now the trio are already back on the big screen tomorrow in Spider-Man: Brand New Day, a Marvel sequel set to rival the $2.7billion box office behemoth Avengers: Endgame, if analysts' predictions are to be believed.

Talk about a young Hollywood couple at the top of their game!

Holland's record fourth solo movie as the Web Slinger arrives five years after Spider-Man: No Way Home's multiverse-spanning shenanigans.

Former Peter Parker stars Tobey Maguire and Andrew Garfield showed up alongside five villains from their movies, in a gargantuan

nostalgia-filled extravaganza. The 2021 movie concluded with Holland's Peter having to make a terrible choice for Doctor Strange to cast a spell so that everyone, including his loved ones like Zendaya's MJ, would forget him and Spider-Man would become anonymous again.

Brand New Day introduces us to an isolated Peter, who is just getting on with being a friendly neighbour Spider-Man.

With Shang-Chi director Destin Daniel Cretton's help, Marvel fans are introduced to a much more grounded, New York City crime-fighting Spidey, a bold and smart move to follow up the sheer scale of No Way Home.

alone, mature moving punch

with Holland admitting he researched what fans wanted from a new Spider-Man film from Reddit forums and pitching ideas to Sony.

Aside from taking on Michael Mando's Scorpion (a character teased in an end credits scene a decade ago), Peter is desperately lonely and mourning the loss of his friendship with Ned and girlfriend MJ.

Emotional

Having lost his parents, aunt, uncle and multiple father figures like Tony Stark across his Marvel movies, you'd think the kid deserved a break?

Peter finds only a surface of fatherly solace in Mark Ruffalo's Bruce Banner and Bernthal's Punisher, as Brand New Day focuses much more on Spider-Man as a person rather than the mission or villains he's taking on.

It's an incredibly emotional and mature film compared to previous outings, in part because he's grown into a man who's now very much on

his own post-high school. At the film's core is Peter's struggle with grief and trauma, something he shares with the Punisher under his rough exterior, and, it turns out, with Stranger Things' Sadie Sink in her excellent performance as the film's spoilerific antagonist.

While it's refreshing to follow up the bombastic external stakes of No Way Home with a more introspective story, there's still plenty of what Marvel does best on the action side of things.

Spider-Man's skyscraper fight scene with the Hulk in his classic form (something not seen in the MCU for over a decade), was a particularly thrilling highlight, while Florence Pugh's Yelena provides her usual eccentric comic one-liners.

Whether Holland's Spider-Man will feature in Avengers Doomsday later this year is anyone's guess, but you can bet he's not hanging up his superhero suit anytime soon.

Garden shade for wildlife hit

GARDENERS are urged to create shaded spaces for wildlife struggling to keep cool as temperatures are set to soar as high as 35C today in the fourth heatwave of the year.

Animal rescue centres are at maximum capacity as foxes and hedgehogs are brought in with heatstroke during what has been a scorching summer, the RSPCA has said.

Temperatures broke records in May and June, and July has been 3C above average, provisional Met Office data on the month so far shows.

Hoglet treated by RSPCA

the RSPCA said wildlife centres are operating at "maximum capacity" and have seen an increase in admissions of hoglets and hedgehogs.

She added: "These animals are usually not out in the daytime, but they're coming out because they're struggling to find food and water, and ending up with heatstroke."

The RSPCA employee encouraged people to think about wildlife as well as pets, adding: "Keep out clean, cool water for wildlife and try and create shaded areas where you can for them to avoid

the direct sun." She advised people to contact the RSPCA when they see wildlife in distress.

Recent research from veterinary group Inspiring Vet Care found that in June this year its clinics treated 179 cases of suspected heatstroke - 66% higher than the 108 cases treated in the same month two years before.

Meanwhile Royal Parks staff have been advised not to leave deckchairs under trees over fears branches will fall during hot weather.

The charity, which looks after green spaces including Hyde Park and Kensington Gardens in Central London, said the measure was an "additional precaution".

The UK Health Security Agency has issued an amber heat-health alert for the East Midlands, East of

England, South East and London until tomorrow, warning of increased health risks, particularly for vulnerable groups.

Some 2,700 people are believed to have died from heat-related causes in the May and June heatwaves.

Vulnerable

Sophie Barrett of Age UK said over-85s account for more than 60% of these deaths.

She warned that elderly bodies find it harder to regulate temperature.

Age UK recommends those who are vulnerable to the heat should not go out during the hottest part of the day, should keep curtains and blinds drawn, and drink plenty of fluids, among other measures.

HOME is where the art is for Wyndham Stokes after he had a spectacular wildlife mural painted across the front of his house.

The dad of one, who was born in the semi and has lived there ever since, wanted to do "something a little different" with it.

So he asked local mural artist Matt Dey to transform the front with a nature theme, but gave him complete freedom over the design.

His only request was the

BY LAUREN BEAVIS

inclusion of the red kite whose silhouette can be seen in the top right-hand corner.

Matt spent five days designing and painting the mural, using a spray can with acrylic paint to bring his vision to life while watched by curious neighbours - and battling his fear of heights.

Along with the kite it includes a robin, blue tit and rabbit. Wyndham,

59, has a table and chairs in his front garden in Treharris, South Wales, from which he can admire it.

He said: "It's very enjoyable to look at. I get cars coming up just to come see it for themselves."

Matt, 51, said: "It was like painting in a gold fish bowl!"

"The whole village was looking - it had to be spot on!"

Now Wyndham has asked him to paint the rest of the house, which will be done by the end of summer.

DRAFT

THE camera loved Marilyn Monroe, and she loved it back. Now her friendship with one particular photographer has been revealed in his new book, Lawrence Schiller, 89, first met her in 1960, when she was already one of the world's most famous – and most photographed – women.

A photoshoot in her dressing room while she was filming romantic comedy Let's Make Love would have been no big deal to Marilyn.

It was to Lawrence. He recalls: 'When I pulled into the 20th Century Fox studios parking lot in Los Angeles, I kept telling myself that this was just another assignment. But it wasn't. In a few minutes, I'd be meeting Marilyn Monroe. I was excited, but I tried not to show it.'

Marilyn appeared, wearing a black leotard and stockings and Lawrence, who lives in California, says: 'Her face as soft as a silk bedsheet but her expression saying she's unapproachable. She passed by me as if I wasn't there.'

'This is Larry,' the publicist said. 'He's with Look magazine. He'll be around for a few days.' Marilyn stopped. Unexpectedly, her eyes lit up. 'Hi, Larry from Look. I'm Marilyn,' she said.

'And I'm the Big Bad Wolf,' I replied.

'I had no idea where that came from and that made me even more nervous than I already was. I stuck my hand out to shake hers, and the three cameras dangling from my neck banged into each other. Marilyn broke out into

By Hannah Britt

laughter. 'You look a bit young to be so bad,' she said.'

Completely losing his cool, Lawrence said to the Some Like It Hot star: 'You're already famous, now you're going to make me famous.'

The photoshoot began as normal. But something about Lawrence made Marilyn open up.

'You didn't close your eye when you were shooting,' he remembers her saying.

He explained to Marilyn how an accident as a child had left him blind in his left eye, and says: 'The look on her face changed from curiosity to concern. Marilyn's manner seemed to shift as the details of my story unfolded.'

'Her lips opened, and I saw how perfect her teeth were. Her eyes became warm and watery, as if what I was describing gave her

comfort. It was an odd reaction, and I did not understand it. It would be years before I came to realise that some questions in life simply have no answers.'

Lawrence captured the chaotic aftermath of John F Kennedy's assassination and photographed Muhammad Ali in the ring. His book, Marilyn & Me, has been released to mark her centenary year.

TINCLUDES pictures of Marilyn, who would have been 100 on June 1, in a swimming pool for Something's Got to Give, which was unfinished as a result of her death aged 36 in August 1962.

Recalling her as a 'dream to photograph', he says: 'Marilyn had final photo approval of my images. She said, 'That's not the best angle for me. If you go over there...' – tilting her head slightly, indicating a spot to the left – 'you'll get a better photo, because the light

will be better.' I moved to where she suggested, and at that moment she turned her head half-way in my direction. Looking over her left shoulder, she flashed a coy smile that told me all I needed to know about Marilyn Monroe. She knew who she was, she knew who I was, she knew what to do, and she may have understood light better than I did.'

One day, Lawrence got to the movie set early, filled with enthusiasm. But Marilyn was nowhere to be seen.

He says: 'Everyone was standing around. Marilyn was in her dressing room, the door closed. One hour passed. Two. Three.'

'I soon discovered that she followed her own clock. It seemed not to matter to her that there was a schedule or that her delays cost the studio more money.'

'As I would learn, she considered herself underpaid and had been battling Fox for years. The gossip was that she thought the studio didn't respect her talent as an actress and that she felt Fox didn't treat her fairly.'

'I had read that for Gentlemen Prefer Blondes, which she'd made in 1953, June Russell was paid $200,000 while Marilyn, the blonde referred to in the title of the movie, earned about $15,000 for the entire picture.'

It was mid-afternoon, when Marilyn emerged, wearing a stunning white dress.

Lawrence says: 'Her face was fresh as the morning. I walked backward taking her picture. 'You'd better watch out,' she warned. 'You're gonna fall

Delicate markings on the bone device that entertained humans

Proof life on Hadrian's Wall could be dicey for Romans

A TINY bone dice which Roman soldiers likely gambled with 2,000 years ago has been unearthed near Hadrian's Wall.

It was dug up at Magna Roman Fort, in Northumberland, and is the first dice - or die - of its kind to be uncovered at the site.

Experts say the 1cm-wide die reveals how Roman soldiers and residents spent their downtime.

Excavator Sue Mingay, who made the discovery last week, said: "When I saw the shape of it, I hoped it would be

a die. I was over the moon to see how delicate the markings were."

The bone plaything was found near the boilers of a bathhouse which was part of the commander's quarters.

Sonya Galloway, of The Vindolanda Trust, said: "This is a wonderfully relatable object. Now we need to find the game board!"

The find is part of the Magna Excavations, a five-year project backed by the National Lottery Heritage Fund.

Birthday girl Mary Davidson Smith with her card from Charles and cakes by chef Jose

A CARE-home resident has celebrated her 105th birthday with 105 cards, including one from the King.

Mary Davidson Smith – who is one of the few people to have received a centenarians' card from both Charles and previously his mother – is already making plans for her 106th.

She hopes to toast it with a 'good, strong whisky'.

This year she celebrated with a 'wonderful family day' as well as an afternoon tea with her friends at Care UK's Murrayside home in Edinburgh, where she resides.

Its chef, Jose, baked a huge batch of cupcakes, which he arranged into the number 105.

Incredible

Mary told him: 'I'm glad you didn't have 105 candles. I don't have enough breath for that!'

The home's staff had made a public appeal for cards for Mary and they poured in from all over the world, including from as far away as Singapore.

She said she had a 'wonderful' time reading them, adding: 'This is incredible! I've never seen so many cards, and they're all for me.'

Born in Korea, Mary lived in several countries during her youth, including England, Canada and the US.

She later joined the Royal Navy and met her husband, British Army officer Charles Wynard Davidson Smith, while posted in Washington DC.

The couple settled in Edinburgh

BY NEIL POORAN

where they raised two sons, Neil and Mark. Mary, now a widow, has four grandchildren.

Recently she was reunited with a Korean outfit she wore as a young girl almost 100 years ago.

During a private tour of the National Museum of Scotland, officials showed her the hanbok – a traditional dress comprising a hat, bag and wraparound jacket known as a chimageogori.

Care home manager Suzanne Welsh said: 'It was a real joy to celebrate Mary's 105th birthday.'

'She is a much-loved resident who always has so many wonderful stories to share about her remarkable life.'

'Mary is a huge part of the Murrayside family and is always keen to participate, whether it's getting outdoors, church activities or quizzes. She also enjoys joining in with the singing sessions and meeting up with friends at coffee mornings.'

She added: 'We are committed to ensuring that residents continue to lead fulfilling and exciting lives.'

BRITONS heading to France or Spain are being urged to check their rights before cancelling holidays as wildfires continue to disrupt travel plans. Summer heatwaves have caused devastation and may also threaten travel plans, so it's important to weigh up your options and avoid rash decisions, experts say. Stephen Cowap, chief insurance officer at Urban Jungle, said your airline, hotel or tour operator should normally be the initial port of call for anyone seeking a refund.

"If they cancel or change your arrangements because of the fires, that's who you should be going to first."

He urged travellers to keep a close eye on the latest Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office (FCDO) advice, as travelling against official advice could

invalidate insurance cover. Travel insurance is designed to cover medical emergencies abroad, Cowap said. "If any travellers have been impacted by fires and need medical attention, their policy will usually cover this."

Travel insurance expert Emily Barnett at Compare The Market said insurance policies may also cover some cancellation or disruption costs.

"The level of protection depends on the policy, so check the wording carefully, then contact your insurer."

Barnett said the fires underline the importance of buying travel cover when you book your holiday. "If you buy insurance after an event has become widely known, such as the wildfires, you're unlikely to be covered for any disruption."

Package holidaymakers have additional

protection. Alan Dean, managing director at insurer CoverForYou, said: "If you've booked a package holiday, your tour operator is responsible for managing any significant disruption to your holiday, so contact them."

Options could include an alternative holiday, changes to the booking or a refund. Those who booked flights and accommodation separately should contact each provider individually, Dean added.

If the FCDO isn't warning against travel but you decide not to go because you're concerned about wildfires, this is generally considered 'disinclination to travel' and your insurance policy typically won't pay, he warned.

Manuela Savoca, travel expert at Transfeero, urged travellers to keep every receipt and to record unexpected costs, including food, accommodation, taxis and replacement

transport. Depending on the circumstances and your cover, airlines or insurers may help with some of these expenses.

She also advised checking alternative airports and transport options, contacting hotels and car hire firms if arrival times change, and checking what assistance your airline provides before paying for accommodation or transport yourself.

"Flight disruption doesn't just cost time. It can quickly become expensive if travellers don't keep track of the unexpected costs they incur along the way."

Extra airport transfers, additional hotel nights, meals and replacement transport can all add up. Missed excursions or attractions may also be refundable or rebookable, so check with the provider or your insurer before writing them off.

Five ways to cut your lump-sum pension tax bill

Edited by HARVEY JONES

Pensioners are being warned they could face tax bills running into tens of thousands of pounds when making big withdrawals from their retirement pots. Last year, almost 400 retirees paid bills of almost £100,000 after cashing in pension pots worth more than £250,000.

Retirees handed a minimum of £87million to HMRC in just six months after fully cashing in pension pots, up more than 20% in a year.

Thousands more could face five-figure tax bills after accessing their pensions in one go, according to new research from Standard Life.

Mike Ambery, retirement savings director at Standard Life, warned that taking a large lump sum can push people into higher tax bands and leave them with a much bigger bill than expected. The figures, based on Financial Conduct Authority data covering the six months to March 2025, show that 392 people fully encashed pension pots worth at least £250,000, each triggering a minimum estimated income tax bill of £98,700.

A further 1,772 people fully cashed in pots worth between £100,000 and £249,000, each paying at least £27,400 in tax.

These are minimum estimates and only cover people who fully withdrew pension pots worth £100,000 or more.

Ambery said taking a larger amount upfront will feel like the simplest option for many. "But it can come with a sting in its tail, in the form of a higher than expected tax bill."

You can usually take up to 25% of your pension tax-free, subject to the £268,275 standard lump sum allowance. Further

pension withdrawals are normally taxed as income. "What catches people out is how quickly a single withdrawal can push them into higher 40% or even 45% tax bands," Ambery said.

He suggested five ways of limiting the danger of facing an unnecessarily large bill.

1 Watch your tax bands. A big pension withdrawal plus your state pension, earnings or other income could push you into a higher rate. Spreading withdrawals across different tax years can help manage your tax position.

2 Factor in your state pension. This counts towards your taxable income and uses up some or all of your £12,570 allowance. That can leave less tax-free headroom for money taken from a private pension.

3 Don't assume you have to take your pension in one go. Smaller withdrawals can give you greater control over your taxable income and reduce the sums falling into higher tax bands.

4 Use your tax-free cash carefully. You don't have to take all of your 25% tax-free cash upfront. You can spread it across several years. 5 Pause before making a big decision. Taking taxable income can trigger the Money Purchase Annual Allowance, which reduces how much you can subsequently contribute to a defined contribution pension while benefiting from tax relief to just £10,000 a year.

Tax planning will become even more important from April next year, at which point pensions may become subject to inheritance tax on death, Ambery said.

Withdrawing money may help you avoid IHT, but the danger is that it will merely trigger an income tax bill instead.

ANYBODY tempted by the idea of buying a beach hut while visiting the British seaside this summer must keep a cool head as prices continue to slide.

Beach hut prices can top six figures, even though most don't have any gas, electricity, toilet facilities or running water, and it's typically illegal to sleep in them overnight.

At Mudeford Spit, Dorset, one was even listed for £575,000 in 2021, as values shot up during the staycation boom in the Covid pandemic.

Yet prices have fallen for the second consecutive year as the pandemic boom continues to unwind, new research from Yopa shows. The average value fell by 9.8% over the last year, which follows an even bigger 19.6% decline the previous year.

Despite the recent market correction, values for the candy-hued huts remain 7% higher than they were in 2022.

West Sussex has seen the largest annual price decline, with values falling 35% over the last year, from £33,044 to £21,444.

Prices in Norfolk fell 13% from £19,251 to £16,743, while Essex and Hampshire both suffered drops of around 12%, to £40,298 and £28,727 respectively.

Dorset boasts by far the most expensive beach

Beach hut market goes from boom to bust

huts and prices actually climbed 2.8% in the year to an average of £105,343.

Yopa chief executive Verona Frankish said prices surged as buyers snapped up a slice of beach life during lockdown, but that's now unwinding: "While demand remains strong, they're ultimately a discretionary purchase and, with confidence across the

wider property market subdued, it's no surprise we've seen values ease."

Yet prices remain higher than before the pandemic boom and the recent dip could present a buying opportunity. "After two years of falling prices this could be an attractive point to invest ahead of the next phase of the market cycle," Frankish said.

Britain can't afford to kick social care can down the road

NEW PM Andy Burnham is the latest politician to promise reform of Britain's broken social care system. Politicians have been promising change for almost 30 years, yet the issue remains stubbornly unresolved.

Sarah Coles, head of personal finance at AJ Bell, said social care reform has been just around the corner for almost 30 years: "Tony Blair told the Labour Party Conference in 1997 that it needed to be addressed urgently."

More than 20 social care commissions, inquiries and white papers have followed since 1997. Proposals have included free personal care and lifetime caps on care costs, but governments have repeatedly postponed or abandoned reform because of the enormous cost. "So while we can hope for swift change, it also makes sense to have a safety net of our own, just in case," Coles said.

The current means test in England is also based on thresholds frozen since 2010. Anyone with assets below £14,250 has their care costs covered, while those with assets between £14,250 and £23,250 receive some support.

For now, Coles says it's worth preparing for the possibility that you'll still have to fund care yourself. "If you're assuming a family member will step in if you eventually need more support, you need to talk.

Check whether this is realistic, or if you need to consider more formal care."

Building an emergency fund covering one to three years of essential expenses can provide a buffer. Those planning further ahead could consider investing for five to 10 years or longer, while pension savers may choose to earmark part of their pot. You may need to use your home, through selling, renting it out, equity release or a

deferred payment agreement. Another option is a long-term care annuity, which can provide a guaranteed income towards care fees, Coles said.

A simpler way to ease menopause

ALL-IN-ONE simplicity makes the Menopause Vitamin Company stand out as it helps women manage their wellbeing more easily at a difficult time in their lives.

Through its Vibrancy Blend brand, it brings together 26 vitamins and minerals plus plant extracts in just one product taken daily.

"Women don't need to navigate what's a crowded, confusing and sometimes misleading supplements market," explains founder Melissa Dickinson who developed the formula with a leading nutritionist.

Lower oestrogen messes with temperature, and while not a medical cure for hot flushes, Vibrancy Blend does help the body to balance.

The catalyst for MVC was Dickinson's own experience with menopausal symptoms and struggles to find a reliable solution. Launching the business five years ago the hospitality sector expert consolidated that by a career change in 2023 to focus on it full time.

"To keep the dream alive I also worked part-time in a bridal shop, and organised local wedding fairs. It was one of the biggest risks I've ever taken, but also one of the best decisions I've ever made," she recalls.

Now profitable, Ipswich-based MVC is forecasting a £100,000 turnover for next year and 25% growth. Products are made in the UK by medically regulated manufacturers and many of the ingredients are sourced domestically too – factors that also play well with customers.

This year the formula was upgraded to include higher absorption B vitamins and higher levels of moisturising hyaluronic acid. Self-funding the

start-up with £20,000, Dickinson also retrained as a menopause wellness practitioner.

"I now provide one-to-one support, workplace education and speak at women's health events. The diversity increases the company's resilience," she adds.

"It's always been about more than supplements, but helping women be seen, heard and supported at a time when they are often misunderstood. It's that combination of quality and support that resonates the most strongly."

As well as customers being the expected 45 to 60 years, the age range has widened as more women experience the menopause earlier and awareness has increased.

Introducing a subscription model on the website has been a "game-changer for growth" but if there was one thing Dickinson wished she had done earlier it was investing in digital marketing skills.

As a business customer of Starling Bank she reflects that "completing its Female Founder Fundamentals Programme showed me just how powerful those skills can be for a small business. The course was concise and targeted so just right for time-poor owners wanting to upskill."

Her next steps are to expand the product range over the coming 18 months with complementary omega-3 and magnesium products and continue growing wholesale partnerships with wellness and aesthetic clinics.

"This is about the impact on individuals not capturing menopause pounds," Dickinson declares.

EXPRESS UK PROPERTY ON THE HOME FRONT

Edited by DEBORAH STONE

A helping hand to move quickly

PRIME Minister Andy Burnham has pledged to make building council houses a top priority which, counter-intuitively, could be a massive boost to people hoping to buy their own homes in the not-too-distant future. That's because public housing would provide builders with the income stream they need to survive, while saving skilled jobs within the industry at a time when private home building is falling fast.

Experts at property specialists Savills say new homes expected to be completed in England between 2024/2025 and 2029/2030 are averaging just over half the Government target of 300,000 a year and new planning consents have dropped by 39% in three years.

Equally crucial to the slowdown in building is the rising cost of materials and economic uncertainty caused by wars, which is why new-build development starts halved this spring – the biggest drop since 2020 when

Covid prevented building work. Developers control the supply of new-build homes when sales are down by simply reducing output, as they need to keep prices stable to cover the high cost of land and lengthy planning process.

But there is a glimmer of hope for people looking to buy right now and that's the increase in special offers and incentives being used to shift unsold stock.

Incentives to look out for include deposit contributions – usually 5-10% – and stamp duty support, but part exchange can also be incredibly helpful if you're in a hurry to move.

Sandra Witherden used Lovell Homes' Helping Hands initiative to find a buyer when she downsized to a new bungalow at its over-55s Sandcastles development in Scarborough, North Yorkshire, to fulfil her dream of retiring to the seaside.

The 64-year-old former civil servant decided in 2023 that she was ready to enjoy a more leisurely life and decided to buy off-plan,

before building had started, which gave her the chance to choose her kitchen units and flooring throughout.

But the Helping Hands initiative meant that Sandra was able to move quickly once building had finished.

"Lovell Homes liaises with a local estate agent to agree a valuation for the customer's existing home and find a buyer quickly," she explains. "They pay the agent's fees and work with them until the sale is completed."

Sandra particularly likes living in a new-build home because it's a blank canvas free from maintenance problems: "The rooms are

nice, straight, sizes with no nooks and crannies, so it's really easy to look after and keep clean. It's very energy efficient and I've got solar panels on my roof which I really love. It's a lovely space that I can make all my own."

Sandcastles is on the outskirts of Scarborough, with regular bus services.

It's exclusively for over-55s but has no management fees and the two and three-bedroom bungalows and small houses are freehold. There are plans for a nursing home on the site.

Prices range from £235,000 to £399,950 (01723 628156; newhomes.lovell.co.uk).

TODAY'S TV ONES TO WATCH

by MIKE WARD TV critic

Pick of the day

EXTRAORDINARY EXTENSIONS, CHANNEL 4, 8PM

THE REPAIR SHOP, R0C1, 8PM

WE RARELY hear singing on The Repair Shop, but instrument fixer Julyan Wallis is thrilled to be offered the chance to perform. He's just given a new lease of life to an old mandriola, once owned by Teesside folk music legend Vin Garbutt, and the pair who brought it in - Vin's son Tim and family friend Maggie - are so thrilled they've invited him to lead them on one of Vin's songs.

Oh, and in case you're wondering, a mandriola is a type of mandolin, but with 12 strings not eight. When this one arrived in the barn it actually had no strings at all, which I don't suppose helped.

LIVE AND LET DIE, ITY1, 10, 45PM

THE PAUL McCartney theme to this, Roger Moore's 007 debut, was at one point the best selling Bond theme ever.

Duran Duran's A View To A Kill toppled it in 1985, then along came Adele in 2012, taking over the top slot with Skyfall - but, let's be honest, neither of those usurpers is as stirring.

By which I mean neither will get you singing along and jumping up and down on your bed, like Alan Partridge dancing to Jet in the Linton Travel Tavern. Or like me.

As for the film, some bits might be seen as politically incorrect nowadays, but in its defence, these only occur between the opening titles and the end.

DECO THAT'S AHEAD OF THE CURVE

HERE'S a word that crops up quite a bit in this programme. By "quite a bit", I mean 27 times in under an hour. Yes, that's right, I actually kept a tally, I am officially a weirdo.

The word to which I'm referring is... well, what do you suppose it might be?

Given the theme of this series, back tonight for a second run, would you like to hazard a guess?

The show, remember, which is hosted once again by Tinie Tempah, is all about people adding to their homes on a spectacular scale.

So might the oft-repeated word be "ambitious", perhaps? Or "extravagant"? Or "insane"?

Yes, indeed, it might be any of those. But it isn't.

No, the word you'll hear

tonight roughly once every 30 seconds is..."curve".

That, or "curves", "curved", "curvy", "curving". Same difference.

You'll hear it that often because one of the houses Tinie visits, a terraced property

in West London ("It's a pretty nice Edwardian gaff you're got here," he observes), is getting an art deco transformation. Art deco uses curves like they're going out of fashion. Or possibly coming back into it.

The property's owners, fast-food entrepreneur Chris and health economist Nadine (interesting juxtaposition of careers there), are big fans of The Great Gatsby, and so they'd like at least some of their gaff to reflect this.

But Tinie pulls a face when

Chris starts to reveal their grand plan -starting with "an amazing curved art deco staircase".

Not a face where he sticks his tongue out or makes his eyebrows do a funny dance or anything like that (although I hope to see him do those things in future episodes), but a face that expresses concern.

"The minute I hear the word 'curve'," he warns, "I start thinking about cost."

Tinie, however, needn't fret. Cost, it turns out, is something Chris and Nadine have already thought about. Hence the total budget they have in mind. Chris says: "We're talking £325,000 to £350,000." Nadine says: "We're looking at £400,000 to £450,000."

So that bodes well, doesn't it?

I've just counted how many times the word "communicate" crops up in this episode.

Turns out it doesn't.

Cabbies are right to fight RBL over poppy dispute

I READ your editorial regarding the black cabs with poppies on their sides ("Cabbies have to remove the word 'poppy' from taxis after 'petty' row", July 27).

I cannot think of any reason why those at the Royal British Legion (RBL) should object. Cab drivers do a tremendous job ferrying veterans to destinations like the Cenotaph. What possible objection is there?

I used the service as a standard-bearer at the unveiling of the Bomber Command Memorial in Green Park in 2012. On both trips the drivers were sons of RAF veterans and refused to even take a tip. I say to the RBL, I am glad the cabbies are fighting back. Keep up the good work and tell the RBL to get someone with sense to knock this proposal on the head.

Arson and carelessness are to blame for wildfires

THE present fires are terrible ("360,000 forced to flee from path of wildfires", July 28).

France has quickly followed Italy as the latest countries to claim that fires are being deliberately started.

As soon as we have a little warm weather, "experts" tell us there will be wildfires due to "climate change" and arsonists get to work to fulfil the prophesy. Dry conditions allow fires to spread rapidly but most are started by people either carelessly throwing down lighted cigarettes, emptying hot barbecue coals or arson.

Greens only making plans for Nigel with a guillotine

WITH Zack Polanski sharing a photo on social media of a moron wearing a T-shirt with a guillotine on it suggesting it will be used on Nigel Farage, a few things strike me ("Farage slams Polanski after sickening Instagram post and calls for him to be arrested", July 27).

This imbecile has no shame in sharing this photo after Ann Widdicombe's death, and I imagine the Green Party is opposed to capital punishment.

The Green Party is no longer a party of tree-hugging hippies, it is extremely dangerous.

Police's £63lm diversity splurge as thugs roam free

CONGRATULATIONS to our police forces. Since 2020 it's estimated they have spent £63lm on diversity, equality and inclusion activities ("Police 'waste' millions on diversity schemes", July 27). Meanwhile grooming gangs, knife criminals, rapists and drug dealers remain active in our society.

IT WOULD be interesting to know how much those who chip in to collection plates know about Queen Anne's Bounty fund. Do they accept cash being diverted into the pockets of "impacted communities" ("£100million Church slavery reparations branded 'profound failure of judgment'", July 27)?

The people who came up with this cockeyed stunt seem to skate over the fact the slave trade was abolished here in the early 1800s but flourished elsewhere for another century.

This policy came via Justin Welby, who as Archbishop of Canterbury failed to act on sexual wrongdoings but was happy to waste time on this. The new Archbishop, Dame Sarah Mullally, has refused to cancel it.

Barrie Warren, Bury, Lancs

duty of any Government is to keep its population safe."

However given the number of violent crimes taking place in the UK, isn't it a crass dereliction of duty to allow thousands of illegal migrants to wander our towns and cities freely ("Lammy exit must end the cover-up of migrant crime", July 22)? Our lethargic Civil Service takes forever to process them and send them back to their countries of origin.

Richard Burridge, Wheatley, Oxon

Burnham's 'majority' is a mile wide but inch deep

ANDY Burnham says the majority of the electorate voted for the Labour manifesto. How can a party that won the votes of just 33% of those who turned out be called a majority ("Burnham: No early election", July 27)?

Alan Homer, Dagenham, East London

Andy's No 10 North is a silly, expensive gimmick

DOES Andy Burnham realise how much it will cost to have a No 10 in the North? All the security and staff needed. Also, it will be in a building where people get married, who wants to be greeted by armed

guards in order to enter the building ("Moving No 10 to North doesn't make decision making any better...", July 25)?

He wanted to be PM and that means No 10 Downing Street.

Jan Chapman, Preston

No ties between leaders of Britain and Ukraine

I WAS pleased Britain welcomed the Ukrainian President and that he didn't leave empty-handed. As can be seen by your picture, Andy Burnham and Volodymyr Zelensky share more than a hatred for Russia - they have a similar dislike of ties ("Burnham: Britain with Ukraine 'for as long as it takes'", July 28).

Dave Alsop, Churchdown, Glos

Passport to Piddington as locals revolt against UK

I READ with interest the Daily Express article on the village of Piddington in Oxfordshire trying to declare independence from the UK ("Give us a voice on asylum plan", July 27).

As a resident of Crowborough, I sympathise with them regarding asylum seekers being housed in their community. They should watch the classic film Passport To

Pimlico to get some idea of what declaring independence involves.

Gary Faulkner, Crowborough, E Sussex

Stop throwing our billions into this NHS money pit

WE ARE constantly told the NHS needs more money. Really ("574 NHS fatcats earn more than Prime Minister", July 27)?

The fact that it can pay some bosses more than £100,000 a year, and others at least £300,000 - representing a 134% increase in a single year - proves that no more funding should be granted. Savings must be made internally so money can be redirected to frontline staff.

Anne Jones, Stalybridge, Cheshire

Games are our heritage and BBC has let us down

I EXPECTED a much bigger outcry ("Commonwealth Games sparks outrage just days in as coverage pulled from BBC", July 24). It only happens once every four years. This is our national heritage and the BBC is supposed to be our flagship broadcaster. The BBC is on the ball quickly enough when it comes to raising the licence fee.

Brian Casson, Amble, Northam

F1 ODDS STILL STACKED AGAINST LEWIS HAMILTON AND FERRARI

HAVING watched Lewis Hamilton's December 2021 Abu Dhabi race that would have given him his eighth world F1 title, denied by race officials manipulating the safety car by only un-lapping drivers up to Max Verstappen's position that ensured Verstappen won the race on new

soft tyres, still leaves a bitter taste.

We now seem to have F1 race officials forensically monitoring Hamilton's every move that seems to ensure he does not get anywhere near to his eighth title ("Lewis penned in yet again", July 27).

John Fox, St Brelade, Jersey

TODAY: Wednesday July 29, 2026

ON THIS DAY

61 years ago (1965) Our front page revealed a storm had erupted in the House of Commons over Chancellor James Callaghan's "big squeeze and the cost of living". Ray Gunter, Minister of Labour, warned that prices and incomes may be controlled by law if the voluntary method failed.

Elsewhere, we revealed that President London B Johnson planned to send a further 50,000 US troops to the Vietnam War. By 1967, some 80,000 US soldiers had died in the conflict.

78 years ago (1948) The London Olympics opened at Wembley Stadium and the Empire Pool at Wembley Park. They were the first Games since Berlin in 1936, and came to be known as the "Austerity Games" due to the tough economic situation and rationing imposed after the Second World War.

119 years ago (1907) Lord Robert Baden-Powell prepared to set up the first Scout camp, at Brownsea Island in Poole Harbour, Dorset, starting the global Scouting movement. Boys from all walks of life took part in challenges such as lifesaving and leadership.

ARIES MARCH 21-APRIL 20

There's a playful, romantic energy around, and it's far too good to waste. Say yes to laughter, creativity and mischief. That said, don't ignore small irritations at work or in your routine – they'll only grow if left alone. A simple conversation can smooth things out. Stay open to different views. Someone else's idea might lead you somewhere surprisingly rewarding.

GEMINI MAY 22-JUNE 21

Your mind is stretching in new directions, and it suits you. Conversations, travel plans, or fresh ideas bring welcome expansion. Still, emotions may run close to the surface in relationships, so don't dodge what needs to be said. Honesty clears up far more than clever avoidance will. Try something different – you'll enjoy the shift.

LEO JULY 24-AUG 23

Relationships take centre stage, and they're asking for honesty, not performance. You're learning something about balance – what you give versus what you receive. Conversations could go deep, so stay present not defensive. There's real strength in listening. When you align your needs with someone else's, things begin to flow more smoothly.

SAGITTARIUS NOV 23-DEC 21

Your thoughts are buzzing, and not all of them agree with each other. That's fine, it means you're growing. Conversations that challenge your perspective are especially valuable, even if they feel uncomfortable at first. In love, clarity matters more than charm. Say what you mean.

But just then Sam, his sailor friend, Appears and all his troubles end.

Rupert is at a loose end. It is the middle of the school spring holiday and all his pals have gone away with their families. "It's no use," he sighs, as his mother clears away the breakfast things. "I just can't think what to do today!" At that moment there is a knock at the door and Rupert hurries to open it. "What a nice surprise!" he cries.

Sweeping GSK jobs cuts to fund £400m mega-campus

DRUGS giant GSK is laying off staff to help fund a £400million mega-campus in Cambridge that will host more than 1,000 scientists researching and developing new therapies.

The firm – previously known as GlaxoSmithKline – refused to say how many jobs would be lost but they are expected to be among HR and other support teams.

In his first big strategy update as chief executive, Luke Miels unveiled plans for the 300,000 sq ft site in the Oxford-Cambridge corridor, which should open in 2029.

The government wants to slapse the area into Europe's Silicon Valley.

Mr Miels said: 'This investment will accelerate our R&D [research and development] and help us deliver new, competitive products. It integrates GSK further into one of the world's leading centres of knowledge and demonstrates the attractiveness of the UK's life sciences ecosystem.'

The campus, which is already under construction on the Cambridge Biomedical Campus, will enable its scientists to continue their focus on cancer, respiratory, hepatology, vaccines and HIV treatments. More than 22,000 people

BY ALI LYON

already work there, including rival AstraZeneca. GSK's move will be a blow for Stevenage, Herts, where it employs 1,800 at its 30-year-old R&D centre. It will close in 2029 although most jobs are likely to move to the new hub.

GSK's labs in Ware, Herts, will be upgraded at the same time. The bumper investment illustrates a thawing in relations between the world-leading UK pharmaceutical industry and government.

At the start of this year, AstraZeneca and Germany's Merck axed expansion plans worth billions of pounds here in a spat over the NHS's pricing regime. But in February,

the government agreed the taxpayer would fork out an extra £1billion for medication, prompting AstraZeneca to revise projects worth £300m.

The deal also silenced US president Donald Trump's threats to slap huge tariffs on the UK's pharma exports unless the country paid more for its drugs.

Yesterday Mr Miels also announced major investment in late-stage phase three trials, doubling them from 10 to 20 this year.

OCADO DROPS £190M M&S PAYOUT CALL

The delivery firm is now working to improve its M&S partnership

OCADO has quietly let Marks & Spencer off the hook in a £190million dispute over its home delivery joint venture.

The companies took a 50-50 stake in Ocado Retail when it was set up and M&S paid Ocado £560m upfront for providing its food delivery services.

A further £190.7m was due to be paid depending on targets but

M&S did not make the payment as the venture struggled.

Ocado had threatened to sue M&S but the firm is now pointing towards its plans to 'realise the potential' of Ocado Retail.

And a spokesperson for M&S said: 'We have a good relationship with Ocado - we're working together to realise the full potential of our partnership.'

Barclays profits up amid Iran war market turmoil

BARCLAYS' profit surged ahead of expectations in the second quarter as market turmoil fuelled a bumper performance in its equity trading division.

The FTSE 100 giant said year-on-year pre-tax profit jumped 17% to £6.1bn across the first half.

Income for the investment bank divi-

sion rose 20% to £3.95bn as it took advantage of market volatility due to the conflict in Iran. Its equity trading division was up 45% at £1.26bn.

The equities performance trailed that of banks on Wall Street, which were up by an average of 69%.

Shares declined 4.8% in early trad-

ing to 503.6p but the stock has risen 5.1% since the start of the year.

Chris Beauchamp, of trading platform IG, said: 'With the share price sitting at post-financial crisis highs there is little room for error for Barclays, but these results provide reassurance the group is well-placed for the rest of the year.'

Millionaires are down...and out

THE number of millionaires in Britain has sunk to 442,000 - its lowest level since the 2008 financial crisis, the Adam Smith Institute reports.

It believes the rich are not just fleeing because of policy choices such as high levels of tax but also cites a cultural hostility to wealth.

According to research from the institute, the cost to the UK economy in lost growth and consumption from the exodus - a drop of 7% from 2024 - will reach £110m in the next decade.

The think-tank highlights recent talk of a 'wealth tax' which, it says, has been proven not to work where implemented in Europe.

Chairman James Lawson said: 'Economic growth has floundered and the path to growth remains unclear; so Britain can no longer afford to treat personal wealth with contempt.'

GOOD EVANS

Golden girl Ruby is toast of Wales

BY CHARLIE BENNETT RAGING Ruby Evans turned fury into gold as she conquered two English rivals to deliver Wales' first Commonwealth Games title.

The 19-year-old gymnast broke down in tears on Sunday after a nightmare sixth-place finish in the all-around final, while she also finished fourth in the team event.

But the Welsh teenager saved her best for last, producing a stunning floor routine that brought the Emirates Arena to its feet.

There was a nerve-shredding wait as the judges deliberated before a 13,500 for Evans flashed up to spark wild celebrations.

As the final gymnast to take the floor, she snatched gold from England's Abi Martin (13,333), while Shantae-Eve Amankwash (13,300) took the bronze spot to complete an all-British podium.

'I was quite angry after the last few days and I told myself I was going to go out there, give it my all, and that's exactly what I did. It paid off,' Evans said.

'Abi set the bar high, and Shantae did a really good routine. When I came out I really didn't know how well I'd done. It could have gone either way.

'I feel like coming out angry does help as well. It gives you that fire and motivation to go out there and do well.

'But this morning, I was actually quite chilled.

'I was surprised by my own emotions because I thought I'd be really nervous.'

The result ends Wales' five-day wait for a gold, their longest barren start since 2010 when it took a week.

'When I came out here I knew I needed to do something for my country and that was the floor routine,' she added.

'I was really excited to hear the national anthem.

'When something like that plays in your brain, you think, 'My God, I'd love that to happen.' To see the dragon on the flag.

'I was so excited because I am so passionately Welsh.'

England's Luke Whitehouse thought he had struck Commonwealth Games gold for the second time in 24 hours - but a razor-thin judges' decision left him with silver.

The Halifax gymnast missed out on victory in the men's vault final by just 0.017 points to Canada's Felix Dolci. The 23-year-old leaves Glasgow with three medals after bagging gold in the floor final on Monday and steering England to silver in the team event on Friday.

'It was a close final. I did think I'd got it, and I think Felix thought I had as well,' he said.

'But once you've done your moves, it's over to the judges. You've done your job, and it's up to them to decide who they think has won. I gave it everything, and it was so close.'

THANKS to National Lottery players, more than £33million is raised every week for good causes. It's because of you that sport, arts, heritage and community projects, as well as our athletes competing at the Glasgow 2026 Commonwealth Games, are supported across the UK.

RICHARDS GETS FIRED UP BY CHEEKY NANDO'S

BY WILL JENNINGS MATT RICHARDS is relishing the prospect of a spicy Battle of Britain and revealed his trusted pre-race fuel - a cheeky Glasgow Nando's.

The Welsh swimmer won Commonwealth 100m freestyle silver last night to gear up for tonight's hotly anticipated showdown.

Richards (right) finished second behind red-hot Flynn Southam as his Australian compatriot Kyle Chalmers bagged bronze. Tonight, Richards will battle it out with Scotland's Duncan Scott and England's Tom Dean and James Guy for 200m freestyle glory - the successful quartet who combined for two Olympic relay titles in Tokyo and Paris.

And the 23-year-old hopes sticking to his tried-and-tested menu can turn silver into gold. Asked how he would prepare, he said: 'A little Nando's - I did it last night and it worked today! It should be good fun and it's going to be a great race.

'Throw a few Aussies into the mix, and it's going to be really fast.'

Stephen Clegg claimed an emotional $13 freestyle gold.

The two-time Paralympic champion, 3G, said: 'I was really struggling on the podium and had tears in my eyes.'

Amalie Smith added 200m bronze to 400m individual medley silver.

Cameroon flier strikes gold and sets new Games record

BY JAMES TONEY IN GLASGOW CAMEROON'S Emmanuel Eseme splashed through the puddles to claim the blue-riband 100m in a new Games record.

His record-breaking sprint success completed a double of the Commonwealth crown to go with his African title.

Despite teeming rain at Scotstoun, he clocked a personal best 9.83 seconds to hold off Australia's Lachlan Kennedy by a fraction, as Nigeria's Kayinsola Ajayi com- pleted the podium.

Welsh sprinter Jeremiah Azu was the only Brit to reach the final, finishing fifth in 10.03 secs.

Azu said: "I don't feel like I really made any mistakes so it's a hard one to take. These guys are just running crazy fast.

"I felt like I put a good race together. I thought it would be worn in 9.9-low which I think I'm capable of, I just didn't put it together today.

"But to represent Wales is always a pleasure, always an honour."

Amy Hunt (10.98) took silver for England in the women's 100m behind New Zealand's Zoe Hobbs (10.93), with Australia's Torrie Lewis (10.99) taking bronze ahead of Imani Lansiquot.

RONNIE O'SULLIVAN crashed out of the Shanghai Masters in a 6-4 second-round defeat to Kyren Wilson.

Wilson took a 3-1 lead - including breaks of 113 and 91 - before The Rocket (below) hit back with three successive century breaks.

But Wilson reeled off three frames to book his spot in the quarter-finals.

The defending champion will face Mark Williams after

the Welshman beat Chris Wakelin 6-5. Wakelin had led 4-2, but Williams recovered by claiming three straight frames.

Wakelin won the 10th frame to set up a decider, with Williams compiling a break of 65 to seal victory.

Neil Robertson came from behind to beat Xiao Guodong 6-5. Xiao hit a 147 in the third frame, his fourth career maximum.

After trailing 5-2, Robertson stormed back to edge into the last eight.

Judd Trump progressed with a 6-4 triumph over Barry Hawkins, including two century breaks.

IT'S AN HONNOR FOR GOLDEN DUO

BY EMILY FERGUSON

ENGLAND cleaned up in the first medal ceremonies of the Bowls and Para Bowls at the Glasgow Commonwealth Games yesterday with two golds and one silver.

Flagbearer Sian Honnor skipped team-mate and close friend Amy Pharaoh to gold in the Women's Pairs after a tense final against Malaysia,

marking their fifth Games medal each.

It's Honnor's (far right, with Pharaoh) third gold medal, having made her Games debut in 2010, and the win was extra special as she was cheered on in the stands by her husband, Ian, and their three children.

Having made her debut for Team England 24 years ago

in Manchester, Pharaoh now hits two golds, one silver and two bronzes from her five Games appearances.

In the Men's Singles, Sam Toichard finally added a gold medal to his collection, having previously taken three bronzes and a silver in the past three Games.

And in the Para Mixed Pairs 92-93, Ron Homer and

Sally-Ann Lewis-Wall and their directors, Sue Davies and Elizabeth Shipley saw gold snatched away from them with a superb last bowl by Scotland's Robert Barr.

The home crowd roared as Mary Stevenson, Barr and their directors. James Aitken and Sarah-Jane Ewing were presented with their medals inside the packed arena.

GOLF: WOMEN'S BRITISH OPEN

RUGBY LEAGUE

Cooke tells Rovers they need to get grip on spiky Mikey

BY DANIEL TOMLINSON PAUL, COOKE has insisted "someone needs to get a grip" of Hull KR star Mikey Lewis.

Lewis is currently serving a four-game ban for a late hit on Warrington Wolves half-back Ewan Irwin and a betulant headbutt on Adam Holroyd, meaning he missed last week's derby game against Hull FC.

It isn't the first time Lewis has been in hot water on that front either, tripping York Knights star Liam Harris in the opening round of the season - although that incident went unpunished.

"Somebody needs to get a grip of the boy," said Cooke, a former half-back at Hull FC and Hull KR.

"What he did the previous week, in my opinion, by attacking two players that couldn't defend themselves, is cowardly.

"The headbutt, particularly from behind - we're waiting for someone to have a serious injury from such a stupid incident.

"And then the Irwin incident, hitting him three seconds after he's passed the ball and getting yelose-carded.

"At half-time, he's waking off arguing with the Warrington players and whoever else.

"Somebody's got to get a grip of him because he cannot continue to behave the way he's behaving.

"He's the brains of the team and, with all due respect, what he did was brainless. He's supposed to be guiding that ship around the field, and you've got to be calm and cool.

"It's a bright being on the sidelines cheering a

derby win at the weekend, but if they don't win games while he's not playing and it costs them league position and they don't go to a Grand Final, they don't even make a star. I don't think that'll happen, by the way, but just let's hypothetically say that anything can happen. Somebody's got to rein him in.

"I'm not sure whether a monetary fine would be enough for him to change his ways. I'm not sure what is enough for him to change his ways, but something's got to give."

Cooke (inset) has challenged Lewis to take a leaf out of Jake Connor's book, who was

regarded as a pantomime chain during his Hull FC days but is now arguably the best player in Super League at Leeds Rhinos.

Cooke explained: "I listened to Brad Arthur after the Bradford game talk about Jake Connor, and he said he can't challenge him with rugby league because he knows more about rugby league than Brad Arthur actually does.

"But what he's got to challenge him with is mentally being better, making better decisions on the field, coming up with less risk, and also staying calm.

"The one thing that really interested me was what he said about the way that he speaks to his teammates and the way he conducts himself with people within the game and outside of the game, basically being a better human being and speaking to people with respect.

"There's a big lesson in that for Mikey Lewis."

Hull admits she needs to win first Major before she can think about a long-term battle with No.1 Korda

BY ANDY HAMPSON CHARLEY HULL admits she must win a Major to consider herself a rival to Nelly Korda.

World No.7 Hull has finished runner-up five times in golf's biggest tournaments and is hoping to go one better as she heads into the AIG Women's Open at Royal Lytham and St Annes this week.

World No.1 Korda (right), meanwhile, already has four Major titles to her name, including this year's Chevron Championship and the US Women's Open.

Hull is among the leading hopes for a first British winner at The Open since 2018, but she admitted: "I don't really see it as a rivalry at the minute because, no offence, Nelly has got however many Majors and I've got none.

"I've got five second places. Let me get my Major in first, and then that's something we can think about in the future."

The winner this week will receive record prize money of £1.13million, with the overall purse having been increased to £7.5m.

Hull will play alongside Aussie Hannah Green and Canada's Brooke Henderson for the opening two rounds in Lancashire.

The 30-year-old added: "I think in the last few years the Majors have really gone up in prize money, and it's really, really good to see.

"It's now the tour's job, and our job as players, to make it really exciting for everyone, get more people to come and make it a

massive event for the sponsors. I think it's great what they've done.

"It's nice and it's good because I love playing for money, I'm not going to lie!

"That's why I think I play so well in the Majors. Even if I'm quite a lot behind I am like, 'Make loads of birdies today - extra dollars for me to get!'"

America's Korda, 28, will open her challenge in the company of South Korea's Ryu Hae-ran, winner of the last two majors, and 2024 Open champion Lydia Ko in a star-studded group.

Another home hope, world No.5 Lottie Woad, will play with Japan's Akie Iwai and American Andrea Lee.

Woad, 22, said: "I think for any British player this would be the dream one to win.

"I like playing links golf and I'm sure it will be a good test with the wind.

"It's always been my favourite watching, and it would be a dream to win it."

Woad was just 14 when Georgia Hall, 30, triumphed at the same venue eight years ago.

She said: "I remember watching all the rounds of that and obviously supporting an English player trying to win. I think that was my earliest memory watching it.

"I've always looked up to the likes of her and Charley. It was inspiring watching her win that."

AS THE PICKET

Gvardiol: I cannot wait to be part of City glory

BY ALEX JAMES

JOSKO GVARDIOL is convinced Manchester City have all the tools to compete for major honours after the defender signed a new long-term contract at the Etihad.

The 24-year-old was the subject of transfer interest earlier in the summer but has put pen to paper on a deal until 2031, becoming the third City star in a week to sign fresh terms after Phil Foden and Abdulkadir Khusanov.

The Croatia international was named City's Player of the Year in the 2024/25 campaign and his ability, mentality and versatility are three of the key reasons as to why the Blues wanted to tie him down to an extended contract.

Gvardiol missed most of the second half of last season after breaking his leg in January's draw with Chelsea but returned in the closing weeks of the campaign and featured for Croatia at the World Cup.

The defender (left) is now set to fly out to Asia as Enzo Maresca's side go on tour – and Gvardiol believes the foundations are in place for City to have a successful era under the Italian as they look to reclaim the Premier League title.

'The players we have here are amazing. This is a world-class squad that is young and full of potential. I truly believe we will have a lot of success in the coming years,' Gvardiol said.

On Maresca, he added: 'Most of

the guys have had the opportunity before to work with him, I haven't met him before. He's one of the best as well and we all know the job he did at Chelsea.

'I remember when he was at Chelsea, it was difficult to play against them, especially away. We struggled. We're really happy that he is here with us, and we can learn something new from his ideas and his mentality. I think we can achieve some great things together.'

Director of Football Hugo Viana (above) said: 'Josko is a player this club really believes in. He is young, an outstanding professional and

already one of the best defenders in the world.

'Manchester City are committed to keeping our best talent, which is why we are so happy this new contract has been agreed.

'Josko epitomises what we want in our defenders – he can play multiple positions, is quick, strong and when he attacks he does it superbly. He is exceptional.

'But the way he conducts himself is also very impressive. This is a young man determined to be the best that he can be – an approach totally aligned with our vision. I want to congratulate Josko on this new deal and everyone at City is now focused on ensuring he maximises his potential.'

'This is a young man determined to be the best that he can be'

REALLY, MADRID?

REAL MADRID claim to have broken the revenue record for any sports team in a single season with earnings of more than £1billion in the 2025-26 campaign.

Los Blancos endured a disappointing campaign as they were eliminated in the Champions League quarter-finals and lost out to Barcelona in LaLiga. Their financial performance was impressive, however, with the club announcing they had earned 1,225m euros (£1,048m). They said this level of earning had 'not been reached until now by any other sports entity'.

HOT ROD'S RACE TO MAKE KICK-OFF

BY ALEX JAMES

REAL MADRID target Rodri is facing a race against time to be fit for the start of the season.

The Spain World Cup winner and Manchester City midfielder has had back surgery and late August is his return target.

City face Arsenal in the Community Shield on August 16 and then open their Premier League campaign on August 23 at home to

Bournemouth. A City statement read: 'We can confirm Rodri has undergone successful minor back surgery. The midfielder had been feeling discomfort for some time, but has now undergone a procedure to address the issue and will begin a short period of rehabilitation.'

Real have stepped up their interest in the 30-year-old, who is into the last 12 months of his City contract. He has been offered fresh

terms by City, but the deal remains unsigned.

The Spaniard has suffered from injury issues over the past two seasons, with a serious knee issue sidelining him for much of the 2024-25 campaign before persistent issues hampered him last term.

He returned to full fitness early in 2026 and played a pivotal role as City battled Arsenal for the title. But an injury in the win over the

Gunners in April left him sidelined for a month. He returned to action in the FA Cup final win over Chelsea.

Rodri then went to the World Cup and helped Spain win the tournament. The midfielder was named the best player.

Blues boss Enzo Maresca said he was not worried by the transfer talk, saying: 'We have to say that around big players there are always speculation. It's normal.'

BARNES TIPS TOON TO KICK UP A STORM

BY LEE RYDER

HARVEY BARNES has lifted the lid on Newcastle's ambitious plans for the new season – with consolidation clearly not an option on Tyneside.

The Magpies spluttered to 12th last term and missed out on European football, but Barnes believes Newcastle will be back in Europe sooner rather than later.

Having watched Anthony Gordon leave in a £69.3million deal for Barcelona, Barnes (tops) feels he will have a bigger role in the new season.

'There's definitely a lot more to come,' said Barnes, who has penned a new contract until 2030. 'As your confidence grows and your role becomes bigger in the team, it naturally comes.'

Barnes' time at Newcastle began with a foot injury that cost him 30 games in his first season after joining for £38m from Leicester City.

But he has since proved a solid pound-for-pound signing, with 30 goals in 120 games.

Barnes, 28, said: 'It was a weird start. I struggled with an injury for a few months. It is always hard when you start somewhere new.'

'Since then, I have got myself in the team and put in the groundwork, and the rewards have come for that hard work and patience.'

'Last season was really positive; this season I want to build on that.'

Barnes will go toe-to-toe with Ivory Coast international Bazoumana Toure, who was snapped up by boss Eddie Howe (above) from Hoffenheim in a £43m deal. 'It is always great to see fresh faces come in,' he said.

'Everybody can see this summer is going to be a transitional period. Players are leaving and new faces are coming in, younger players, and it is great to see that fresh energy.'

Barnes scored against Barcelona beneath the Champions League lights last term. Having thrashed out a deal with sporting director Ross Wilson, he is convinced it won't be long before Newcastle are back in Europe and challenging for trophies again after winning the Carabao Cup.

Barnes said: 'I have had that taste of success and those special nights. It is just wanting more of that, really. And being a key player in doing that.'

'Everyone here wants to push the club onto the next level. More silverware, Champions League nights, year-on-year building on that.'

'This year will be different with no Europe, but it gives us the platform to kick on for the following season.'

FOOTBALL: PREMIER LEAGUE COUNTDOWN

UEFA lay down law on World Cup calls

FROM BACK PAGE revealing that the decision on the field was not clearly and obviously incorrect, and should therefore be limited.

A swathe of controversial calls were highlighted during this summer's World Cup. In the 1st draw with Egypt, Iran saw Shoja Khalizadeh's goal disallowed for the tightest of offside calls after a VAR check. Had it stood, Iran would have gone through to the knockout stage for the first time.

The decision to rule out violators Jr's goal against Scotland for a foul on Jack Hendry, after VAR recommended an on-field review, drawing criticism from the Brazilians, who wrote to FIFA requesting "consistent application of VAR intervention standards".

Norway were left turning after Torbjorn Heggem's effort (above),

which would have handed them a 2-1 second-half lead against England in the quarter-finals, was chalked off for a push on Elliot Anderton by Erling Haaland after a review.

"One of the great goals of the Finals by Montaña Zico, which would have put Egypt 2-0 ahead against Argentina in the last 16, was chalked off after a VAR review deemed Lisandro Martinez had been fouled in the build-up, deep in the Egypt half.

And Switzerland had Breef Embolo sent off for a second yellow card against Argentina after a booking for Leandro Paredes was overturned on review. The official found Embolo had dived.

Leagues and other competitions have also been told the mistaken identity protocol cannot be used to deal with simulation until a review has concluded.

UEFA slam sale plan

FROM BACK PAGE associations, to retain or sell, with the rest reserved for private investors. Gianni Infantino could be installed as the new company's supremo after he stands down as FIFA president in 2031 - potentially netting him millions.

But UEFA has hit back, declaring: "This crosses a line that football's governing institutions should never cross. The

soul and governance of football are not assets to trade - especially with zero transparency as to who gains financially.

"None of us are the owners of football. It is not FIFA's to sell."

Thrive Eternal, a company launched by Joshua Kushner, brother of US President Donald Trump's son-in-law Jared (above), will lead the proposed investor group for FFE.

'Best for everyone' if skipper quits says Anderton

BY RYAN TAYLOR DARREN ANDERTON has urged Tottenham to cash in on Cristian Romero - and make Micky van de Ven skipper instead.

Romero, who missed the final weeks of last season due to a knee ligament injury, is currently resting following his involvement with Argentina at the World Cup.

Inter Milan and Barcelona are courting the 28-year-old, while the north Londoners have signed two new central defenders in Jan Paul van Hecke and Marcos Senesi.

And former Spurs star Anderton (right) feels that his

former club must now finally sell their current captain.

Anderton said: "I think he's got to go. Take away all the Argentina stuff and the behaviour at the end of last season - wanting to go and watch his hometown team instead of being there for our last game.

"He let the team down a lot,

and as a captain you've got to be reliable. He isn't.

"At times he can be such a good defender - he can go and score goals and lead by example that way - but there are too many moments.

"Even last year at Manchester United, we were playing well for the first 20 minutes, thinking this looks great, and then a silly tackle, a red card, we're up against it and we get beat.

"That happens too much for me, so I think it would probably be the best thing for everyone."

Romero was involved in the "Las Malvinas" banner

controversy that was displayed after Argentina defeated England in the World Cup semi-finals in Atlanta.

Asked who could replace Romero as Tottenham skipper, Anderton, 54, told OLBG: "I'd love to see Van de Ven be the captain, and for him to react in the right way and grow as a leader with that responsibility.

"Put him in a solid back four or five, with a game plan for how we play and how we defend, with an organised coach - I think he will be the best defender in the league. I really do."

PRACTICE MAKES SPORFECT

Tough taskmaster De Zerbi already putting us on front foot says re-energised Maddison

BY RYAN TAYLOR JAMES MADDISON insists perfectionist boss Roberto De Zerbi has ignited the fire within Tottenham.

The demanding Italian, who steered crisis-hit Spurs to safety on the final day of last season, is slowly gluing the pieces of a broken football club back together.

Maddison, re-energised after recovering from an ACL rupture sustained in Seoul one year ago, is relishing the chance to wipe the slate clean.

He explained: 'The manager is very clear that the goals are to be better, to play better football, to be passionate, to be proud to play for this club.'

'I think if we listen to his style, the way he wants, his principles, I think if you keep the short-term targets of trying to be better and trying to implement the way he will

play, the long-term targets will be better.'

'It's just a matter of still learning the way he plays.'

'As a player, he's a coach we want to play for.'

'He loves everything with the ball, very attacking. I'm really excited.'

Tottenham have already splashed a club-record £237million on six shiny new signings, including £100m on Sandro Tonali and £85m on Mateus Fernandes.

De Zerbi has warned rivals that they intend to upgrade their attack before the September 1 transfer deadline.

Three of their new recruits – Andy Robertson, Jan Paul van Hecke and Marcos Senesi – are defenders and Spurs are yet to concede a goal in pre-season, indicating early signs of an improvement.

Maddison feels everything is now in place for a 'big season'

as Tottenham finally seek to fulfil their potential and become a real force in the Premier League.

'Preparation, it's just great preparation,' he added on the club's tour of Oceania. 'It's the only chance we get to come on these trips and these tours to see our fans around the world.'

'We're preparing for the first game of the season against Brentford on August 22.'

'It's a big season for us under a new manager. We want to have a successful season.'

'We need to be better than the last couple of seasons. This is all preparation leading to that first game.'

'The games against Sydney and Chelsea, we're just stepping up the preparation and what we've been working on, creating the team how we want to play and the style we want to play.'

Spurs face Sydney FC today

before colliding with rivals Chelsea on Saturday.

While De Zerbi is utilising pre-season to further implement his expansive style of football, he is also running the rule over a number of fringe and youth players.

Highly-rated winger Mikey Moore – wanted by Rangers and FC Koln – Jamie Donley and Dane Scarlett are striving to force their way into De Zerbi's ambitious plans.

And 17-year-old gem Luca Williams-Barnett is targeting a breakthrough senior campaign in north London.

Winger Manor Solomon is still expected to depart on a permanent transfer, despite starting friendly victories over MK Dons and Auckland FC.

Spurs are also waiting for Juventus to formalise interest in goalkeeper Guglielmo Vicario, who has been left out of the tour party.

Mikel's back to wall after Saliba injury

BY RYAN TAYLOR

MIKEL ARTETA's record-breaking defence has been so solid, it has resembled The Great Wall of Arsenal.

But keeping opponents at bay next season already looks more complex in the absence of William Saliba.

In each of the past three Premier League campaigns, the Gunners have boasted the tightest backline in the entire division.

Over the past 114 top-flight matches, they have conceded just 90 goals – an average of just 0.78 per game.

If Arsenal are to retain their crown, they must maintain such standards.

But Arteta's side will have to kick off their title defence without defensive talisman Saliba (above).

The France international aggravated a serious back issue while playing through the pain barrier in the World Cup semi-final defeat against Spain.

While there is no timeframe for his return, the 25-year-old has embarked on a sustained period of rest.

Saliba's injury places extra pressure on the shoulders of Spanish prospect Cristhian Mosquera, who is viewed as reliable cover.

However, Gabriel has also endured fitness issues of his own, not least recurring pain in his right knee.

The 28-year-old is yet to report back for pre-season training following his bruising World Cup exploits with Brazil.

Despite Arsenal prioritising the signings of Vinicius Jr and Brazil team-mate Bruno Guimaraes, there is a sense they are still a little light on the ground at the back.

Ben White is back in training following his knee ligament injury, but will need to be slowly integrated into first-team action.

Jurrien Timber was forced to withdraw from Holland's World Cup squad and he underwent a minor groin procedure after missing a large chunk of the run-in.

Left-back Riccardo Calafiori can also operate in central defence but he too has had various fitness problems having missed 13 games last term.

It's why Arteta (circled) may yet delve into the market for a player that can operate in multiple roles across the backline.

Ezri Konsa – valued at up to £60million – is their top defensive target but Aston Villa are understandably reluctant to sell the England international.

Como's Jacobo Ramon is also being considered but Real Madrid are due 50 percent of any sale, complicating the Italian club's negotiating stance.

GENT FOOTBALL: COUNTDOWN TO THE NEW SEASON

Santos a gift for Maguire

BY STEVEN RAILSTON HARRY MAGUIRE has praised the personality Andrey Santos has shown since signing for Manchester United from Chelsea earlier this month. United paid an initial £48m, with a potential £2m in add-ons, to make Santos (above) their first signing of the summer, and the Brazilian started in the opening two pre-season games against Wrexham and Rosenborg. Centre-back Maguire said: "He's really nice person, always smiling. 'We've just got to make him feel comfortable but he's settled in well. He's been brilliant in training. I thought he was brilliant in the game as well. 'He's always laughing and joking around. He's still really young, and he's going to have a big part to play in this club's future.'"

BUT, HULL IS SPECIAL

BY BARRY COOPER HULL summer signing Jack Butland admits it took a special offer to entice him away from Rangers as he embarks on the latest chapter of his long career.

Butland (inset) spent the last three years in Glasgow before deciding to return to England to link-up with newly-promoted Hull in the Premier League, and the goalkeeper's experience will be invaluable for Tigers boss Sergej Jakirovic. "I'm very pleased to join City," said 33-year-old Butland. "I don't want to make it sound like I wanted to get out of Rangers, because it wasn't like that. I had a fantastic time there."

"The football club was incredible, there was so much about it that I loved, and it needed to be something exciting and something special to prize me away from that."

Blues a work in progress

FROM BOBBY VINCENT IN SYDNEY XABI ALONSO has warned his Chelsea players much work still lies ahead if they are to be ready for the new season.

Chelsea are looking to add some vital experience with the signings of Danny Welbeck, 35, from Brighton and 36-year-old Brentford midfielder Jordan Henderson.

The new Blues boss raised multiple concerns after a messy 6-4 win over Western Sydney Wanderers.

"Everyone has to learn, everyone," said Alonso (above). "It doesn't matter if you are young, if you are more experienced, this is what happens in the game. This is a quality as well that you need."

"We need to be quick because the competition is in just a month."

READY TO

FROM PAUL GORST IN CHICAGO AS HE chats on the rooftop bar of a Chicago hotel, Milos Kerkez, with his infectious energy, makes one thing clear: Liverpool are intent on righting the wrongs of last season.

And if the Reds are looking to move forward and forget about the weak defence of their Premier League title, Kerkez is one who stands to benefit most from the appointment of manager Andoni Iraola.

His performances under Iraola at Bournemouth, with his marauding, aggressive style, made him a £40m Liverpool left-back barely 12 months ago.

And the Serbian is clearly delighted to be working once more with the coach who afforded him the freedom to become known as one of the most exciting attacking full-backs in the English game during their time together on the

'Perfect fit' Iraola will give Liverpool stars a massive leg up insists Kerkez

South Coast. On Iraola's appointment, Kerkez said: "I was delighted. I worked for him before and he improved me a lot in the two years that I spent with him."

"I was happy for myself but also for the team. Everyone knows what type of football he plays, so I think he is the perfect fit for us."

"What makes him a special coach? The intensity. He's not scared to play one-on-one all over the pitch, to press high and to be on the front foot always."

"If you see footage of how we all are after training, all

lying down, then you can see what he is preparing us for. You definitely need legs and good condition for what he wants us to do, but we will be alright."

"He's very professional. He likes to talk sometimes, but not a lot. He doesn't want to get too close to some players and wants to show that everyone is the same in the team, so he doesn't want to get too close to anyone."

He keeps it professional, with a lot of hard work. For example, when we play some games with three or four teams, he calls it 'consequences' and the losing team and the team that finishes second has to run.

"How much you have to run depends on what he decides in that moment, but there is always running for the team that loses. He's intense and he likes details."

"He always told me that defending is really important – for him that is first of all – and because you are a full-back you need to defend hard."

"Everything you can do in front of you is like a bonus."

"So I was always focused first on defending and then running forward to help the wingers."

"He showed me that when you do your job, then you are free to do what you want. I felt free with him."

"We had a good team (at Bournemouth). It was not me, we were playing well as a team. He lets you be more free to do your stuff."

"The guys are doing good. The first couple of sessions, they were getting used to it, but now they are getting better."

"The guys like how he works. I like it, they like it. It is going to suit the team perfectly."

Kerkez speaks of a 'new generation' that is being shaped during pre-season and he is relishing the opportunity to take on more seniority. "I don't care about pressure," he said. "I grew up a bit different in Serbia. It is just your job. Do your own damn job."

DISCIPLE Kerkez gets some points from new KGI boss Iraola

'Mo's moved on, so must Reds'

FROM PAUL GORST LIVERPOOL star Milos Kerkez says the departure of Mo Salah means it's time for 'a new generation' at Anfield.

And Kerkez insists there is 'no bad blood' with fellow left-back Kostas Tsimikas (right), who has returned to the club this summer to compete for a place with the £40m defender under Andoni Iraola.

Kerkez grew close to Salah during their one season together, alongside Dominik Szoboszlai, and the 22-year-old has kept in touch with the Egyptian following his end-of-season

exit. Kerkez explained how impactful Salah's time on Merseyside was, but said he was unsure as to the Liverpool legend's next move as a free agent.

Kerkez said: "I saw on the TV before we left the AXA (Training Centre), how many goals and assists Mo had, it was 300 and something."

"I just walked out! What is this?"

"But time flies, a new generation comes with new players and hopefully everything will be good."

"We speak often (with Salah) but I don't know who he is signing for."

"We just talk about vacations."

"Kostas and I get on well."

Last pre-season we also connected really good. It was me, Dom, Kostas and Mo.

"There is no bad blood. Kostas is Greek, I'm Serbian, we have that kind of similar mentality."

"The summer was nice. I spent time with my family, rested a bit and honestly it was getting boring after about 10 days so I needed to get in the gym and touch the ball a little bit."

Overall it was a nice time off. "I was at home in Serbia, I was in Spain a bit, I was around Montenegro for a bit and then I was back home in Serbia."

"I was around Montenegro for a bit and then I was back home in Serbia."

On Szoboszlai's new contract, which was confirmed earlier this month, Kerkez added: "It was very important."

"Last year, you could see how important he was with everything. 'He is getting even better in that role of a leader and he is very important for us.' Everyone is really happy that he is continuing for longer."

AMERICAN ADVENTURE Milos Kerkez gets up to speed during Liverpool's tour of the United States

SLOT AXE A SHOCK TO MILOS

FROM PAUL GORST IN CHICAGO MILOS KERKEZ has revealed that Arne Slot's sacking at Liverpool came as a shock to the Anfield players.

The Reds' defence of their Premier League title fell apart early in the Dutch manager's second season and they finished a distant fifth, 25 points behind champions Arsenal.

Many of the squad were preparing for the World Cup when news reached them on May 30 that Slot (below) had been dismissed.

"I was surprised," said Serbia left-back Kerkez (left hitting the gym).

"I really didn't know. I was back in Serbia, I was sleeping and my brother woke me up. He knocks on my door and it was a big surprise.

"Nobody knew. I couldn't believe it, I was like, 'Wow!' I have been in touch with him since, we have exchanged a few messages, that's it."

Kerkez joined last year from Bourne-Mouth and made the left-back spot his own, playing 34 league games and limiting game time for Andy Robertson, who has since signed for Tottenham.

But Kerkez says the standards the players showed last year will not be acceptable in the upcoming campaign under new boss Andrei Ireola.

"Obviously last season was tough for everyone," he added. "When you are here, you need to play to win things. We had tough moments. We had moments when we fought back and then we had tough moments again. It was a good experience. You can learn a lot, pick up a lot. It wasn't good for our standards but we need to improve this year."

Tatt's for Luis says Cucurella

MARC CUCURELLA has kept his promise to have an image of Spain's World Cup-winning coach Luis de la Fuente tattooed on his body.

The former Chelsea left-back, who joined Real Madrid this summer, revealed the tribute to the 65-year-old on the underside of his arm (below).

The design appeared on Instagram yesterday, featuring a portrait of De la Fuente alongside the World Cup, with Cucurella writing "Promise fulfilled".

MANCINI IT MAN AGAIN

ROBERTO MANCINI has been appointed as head coach of Italy for the second time.

The 61-year-old succeeds Gennaro Gattuso after a turbulent 24 hours for the country's football federation (FIGC).

Andrea Pirio had been favourite but he announced on Monday he was no longer in contention amid controversy over his links to a Russian betting firm.

That led technical director Paolo Maldini and his adviser Leonardo to leave only days into their roles, with FIGC president Giovanni Malago announcing yesterday that Claudio Ranieri would succeed Maldini.

Mancini (inset) was Azzurri coach from 2018-2023, guiding Italy to glory in the 2021 Euros but failing to qualify for the 2022 World Cup. He most recently managed Al-Sadd in Qatar.

France turn to Zidane

ZINEDINE ZIDANE has been confirmed as the new head coach of France.

The World Cup-winning former Les Bleus midfielder succeeds Didier Deschamps, who stepped down this month after 14 years in charge.

The ex-Real Madrid and Juventus star, 54, (above) has agreed a four-year deal with the French Football Federation that takes him through to the end of the 2030 World Cup.

He will officially take up the role next month, with his first assignment being France's Nations League campaign in the autumn, when they face games against Turkey, Belgium and Italy.

Zidane said: "I have often said, there is nothing greater than the French national team.

"I have great ambitions for the French national team!"

"If you see how we all are after training, all lying down, then you can see what he is preparing us for"

UEFA: REFS IN CHARGE ..NOT VAR!

BY SIMON CASS UEFA have laid down the law on the use of VAR after a string of controversial World Cup calls.

Officials across Europe have restated the need to use VAR only to change "blatantly incorrect" decisions and address clear missed incidents.

Last week UEFA convened referee chiefs from all 55 national associations along with representatives from the International Football Association Board (IFAB), which sets the game's laws, in a bid to reach a consensus on the best approach to officiating.

UEFA insisted: "VAR must only intervene in situations of 'clear and obvious' error - when a referee decision is blatantly incorrect or when the referee has missed a clear incident.

"VAR is not meant to re-referee the game, it is an essential support to the referees, who must remain at the centre of all decision-making. Lengthy, microscoping reviews are often a symptom

GOODWOOD 2026 DAY 2 THE SCOUT'S TOP TV TIPS

James Dream's of Stewards' Cup glory

JAMES OWEN is confident the Coral Stewards' Cup on Saturday is "the ideal race" for Far Above Dream.

The four-year-old, a winner over course and distance last October and on his return to action in May, is the sponsor's 6-1 favourite for the feature race of Cherious Goodwood's final day. Kieran Shoemark's partner racked up a hat-trick at Newbury before a fourth to Double Rush in the Wokingham Handicap at Royal Ascot and Owen said: "When he won at Newbury it allowed

By David Yates

us to get into the Wokingham and we thought we would give it a shot.

"I thought he ran great on a track that wouldn't really play to his strengths.

"He's had a nice freshen up since and this has always been the plan - he's unbeaten at Goodwood and the Stewards' Cup is the ideal race."

In-form Owen will also run Wokingham third Soldier's Tree, the mount of Billy Loughnane, in the six-turning test.

Sent off the 7-4 market leader for the Group Three Hackwood Stakes at Newbury 11 days ago, the five-year-old finished third to Symbol Of Honour and Owen added: "He's not without a shot - he'll like the fast pace."

OPERA BALLO (4.10) is fancied to hit a high note by thwarting the three-year-olds in the Group One Visit Qatar Sussex Stakes.

The front-runner has to concede 8lb to Bow Echo and Gstaad, who have traded blows in the 2,000 Guineas and St James's Palace Stakes this season.

Opera Ballo took his chance in the Queen Anne Stakes at the royal meeting, where he held off the pack until the final 110 yards.

Lightning fast from the stalls in the Group Two bet365 Mile at Sandown prior to that, he led his rivals

a merry dance under William Buick.

That bodes well for the ups and downs of Goodwood and if he can skip along and maintain his high tempo, the others could be found wanting.

Gstaad had a smoother trip than Bow Echo last time but he could turn the tables this time to collect a minor medal, while Lake Forest is very smart and might make it a lucrative week by completing the places.

1 DOCKLANDS

Peaked at a rating of 118 when getting up to nose out Rosallion in the 2025 Queen Anne Stakes at his favourite course Ascot. Currently operating a couple of pounds below that standard and does not have such an affinity for the Sussex Downs.

2 LAKE FOREST

Produced his customary late burst to land the Group Two Lennox Stakes here yesterday, which led to his odds being chopped to around 10-1. Respected if he eats up and turns out again little over 24 hours later.

3 NEVER SO BRAVE

Not won as many races as he should have and enthusiasm concerns after wilting in York's Group Three Criterion Stakes, when he travelled well. First encounter with Goodwood and up against it.

4 OPERA BALLO

Quality older miler with a record of 7-10 and probably went a fraction too quick in the Queen Anne Stakes when third. Rivals likely to try and unsettle him but if relatively unhurried his style of racing is an asset at this type of track and has plenty of class to boot.

5 QIRAT

Fourth to Lake Forest yesterday as he returns to the scene of his finest hour in 2025. Won't be 150-1 and while he has picked up Group Three honours this season, yet to prove it wasn't a fluke.

6 SEAGULLS ELEVEN

Two-time Group Three titleholder for 11 current and former Brighton FC players, including James Milner and Danny Welbeck. Been a star for the team but this is a stiff ask, despite the chestnut being 1-1 over course and distance.

OP THE BEST: Opera Ballo is Group One class

Charlie's colt to upstage

8 BOW ECHO

2,000 Guineas and St James's Palace Stakes on a CV which remains unblemished after five appearances. Did well given a fair few things went against him in-running at Ascot but Billy Loughnane was screaming for the line. Risky to take short odds here as the set-up seems likely to push his stamina to its limit.

9 DORSET

Lowest-rated of the 12 and

unlikely to be good enough to figure.

10 GSTAAD

Into a third meeting with Bow Echo with the score 2-0 to George Boughey's stable star. Ryan Moore appeared frustrated with the narrow St James's Palace Stakes loss and Gstaad would have nicked it in another stride after he powered to the line. Can become the main threat to Opera Ballo.

7 TEN BOB TONY

50-1 stunner in the Queen Anne Stakes, left, impressing with his finishing effort off a strong pace. Probably flatters given the Opera Ballo fractions but unexposed at the distance.

OWS & SOUS

TOP SECRETS FROM THE TRADING ROOM William HILL

Lee Phelps, spokesperson for William Hill, turns... DAY One of Goodwood was a mixed one results wise.

We were pleased to get waste-result Al Pudeba beaten in the Vintage Stakes, but wins for the well-backed Lake Forest and Scandinavia were results for the punters. All eyes will be on the third instalment of Bow

Echo against Gstaad in today's Group One Sussex Stakes (4.10), and it's the dual Group One-winning BOW ECHO (11-10 from 5-4) that punters are backing to gain a third successive win over rival GSTAAD (7-2). OPERA BALLO (4-1 from 10-3) has drifted out, but there has been good money for LAKE FOREST (18-1 into 11-1) and it will be interesting to

see if yesterday's Lennox Stakes winner takes his chance. In the opening mile-and-a-half handicap (1.50) two Al Shayab-owned horses head the market. CANNES (4-1 from 3-1) began favourite but has been replaced by the well-backed HATTEEN (5-2 from 7-2). Another that has seen strong support is BAY ROYALE, who has sprung into 13-2 from 10-1.

Led in the St James's Palace Stakes and was a sitting duck for the rest heading into the straight. Similar scenario expected here.

12 ZAVATERI

Missed the English and Irish Guineas with a setback. Given the go-ahead to return after a promising gallop and although ahead of Gstaad in the 2025 National Stakes at the Curragh, is not as scopey as Aidan O'Brien's charge.

WILD BLOSSOM (6-4 from 7-4) finished down the field in the Queen Mary at Royal Ascot but punters fancy Karl Burke's filly to bounce back in the Alice Keppel Fillies' Conditions Stakes (2.25).

FLORA OF BERMUDA (3-1) and SAYIDAH DARIYAN (3-1) are proving difficult to separate in the market for the Group Three Oak Tree Stakes (3.00).

PERSHAADA (3-1) is a strong favourite for the Group Three Molecomb Stakes (3.35), while one at a huge price that has been clipped in the market is the Adrian Knotley-trained HELL OF A SPIN (33-1 from 40-1).

A good winner at Windsor earlier this month, UNDER THE TWILIGHT (6-1 from 17-2) has been backed into favouritism for the

six-furlong handicap (3.00).

The Jennie Candish-trained FRENCH AFFAIR has also been clipped into 11-1 from 12s.

A George Boughey horse on the move is OLIVER SHOW (8-1 from 10-1) in the closing seven-furlong handicap (5.40).

ADVERTORIAL

WELL BACKED: Bay Royale

It all Aad's up to a Haggas win

INFRAAD (1.50) is backed to come out on top in an intriguing running of the Coral Rewards Shaker Handicap on day two.

The nine-runner field is stacked with promising young stayers, with Cannes - too far back off a slow gallop in the King George V Stakes at Royal Ascot - and Bay Royale, who beat my selection and Hatteen in style in a Nottingham novice, among them.

Infraad was the 11-10 favourite on that April date and after wearing a hood to the start, was not at his best off a stop-start pace, unable to match the winner's turn of foot.

But setting his own fractions under Tom Marquand at Pontefract a couple of weeks later, he readily drew six-and-a-half lengths clear and was put on a handicap perch of 90.

Then Infraad, wearing earplugs before the beginning of a Chester event, was hemmed in on the inside and when Harry Davies switched out to challenge, a potential opening swiftly closed.

As a result, the William Haggas trainee, backed as though defeat was out of the question, finished the 1m2f with petrol left in the tank.

Today's extra distance looks sure to suit on that evidence from an unchanged rating, with Baltic Fleet, a £170,000 transfer to Ian Williams' stable, put forward as the main danger.

By The Scout (Melissa Jones)

He showed his handicapping potential in a solid event behind Arc Ole Ole at York in May and a subsequent Wolverhampton all-weather second is better than it might have looked at the time - and William Buick has ridden 25 winners for the stable.

FAST TRACK (2.25) can put his course experience to good use in the British Stallion Studs EBF Alice Keppel Fillies' Conditions Stakes.

Blue Point's daughter has ground to make up on Wild Blossom and Miss Lizzy from the Queen Mary Stakes, but she was keen after missing the break.

Fast Track made the most of a nice opportunity when leading all the way at Beverley, needing little encouragement to go clear at a speed of 40mph.

Her earlier form stands up to close inspection at Group level and her yard, bidding to regain the

crown Flora Of Bermuda claimed in 2023, has had more winners here than any other in the past five years.

The aforementioned mare is saddled with joint top weight of 9st 9lb in the Group Three Rolls-Royce Oak Tree Stakes, carrying a 3lb penalty for a same level triumph at York 19 days ago.

She goes up to seven furlongs and it appears as though this is a move her team have been wanting to make for some time, as she holds entries in the Hungerford and City Of York Stakes.

This often goes to a lesser-fancied horse however, with 10-1, 16-1 and 12-1 (twice) winning odds since 2016 and QUEEN'S REIGN (3.00) is nominated as an each-way play.

The mount of Kieran Shoemark, below, has been tasked with scooping a stakes race this season and she has gone close several times in Listed company.

Ed Walker could have cared her for this meeting, as a course scorer of 2024, and she was only caught late after being ridden prominently in cheekpieces at Deauville in December.

EL FLORIDITA's (3.35) second to highly-rated juvenile Orthodox in the Norfolk Stakes is an excellent run to go onwards to the Group Three Veuve Clicquot Molecomb Stakes.

TASK: See The Fire faces Diamond Necklace

Fire to take on Diamond

By David Yates

SEE THE FIRE, times yet another Adam O'Brien helped in Diamond Necklace for her bid to make it that time lucky to tomorrow's Qatar-Nassau Stakes.

The Andrew Budding trained daughter of Sea Fire Stars finished second in Opera Singer in 2025, before a third in the latter's Dabouyfe stabbiness. Won't 2 months ago.

O'Brien's Diamond Necklace is the 8-10 favourite to add to victories in the Poule of Essai Bin Ptahidahs and Prix de Diane Els Assain, with See The Fire, who will not spin in Nottingham's Listed Nottinghamshire Coks and York's Group Two Midsection Stakes with a tame sixth to

Ombudsman in the Prince Of Wales's Stakes at Royal Accel, next best at 7-2. "She's

high-class and we've been very happy with her," said Budding above. "She's had a problem up since Accel and she's looked good in our last couple of pieces of work.

"The only concern is she ran and twine put at Accel. We just hope it's not her enthusiasm catching up so her, but this is more her bag and the ground should be perfect as well."

Bidding added of last Saturday's King George VI Kind Queen Elizabeth Stakes heroine Kaïaemi. "She's come out of the race well.

"I'm no clearer yet as to what the desired plan will be taken. It's going to have an easy fortnight, anyway."

SCANDINAVIA

Scandinavia wins Goodwood Cup after Amiloc slip drama

SCANDINAVIA was standing on the shoulders of giants after an enthralling Al Shaqab Goodwood Cup with drama around every corner.

The two-mile feature was billed as a straight shootout between the 6-5 favourite and Trawlerman (13-8) after they took their epic battle in the Ascot Gold Cup right down to the wire.

Each streetfighter of the turf had their supporters and round two in front of the Goodwood betting ring was on in the home straight.

But the riderless Amiloc, who Hector Crouch slipped off coming out of the stalls, spoiled the party by scurrying in front of Trawlerman and taking his ground.

The interference came at a vital stage but seemed to have no bearing on the overall result and Scandinavia scooted away by eight-and-a-half lengths, seemingly enjoying his chase of his eliminated rival.

Racing's Ascot-Goodwood double has only been achieved by a select few, including Ballydoyle record-setter Yeats (2006, 2008), whose four Ascot Gold Cups are yet to be bettered. "I think he could

(emulate him)," suggested O'Brien, his current star quashing concerns over the form of the world famous stable in County Tipperary.

"He is a very high cruiser, very natural, easy to train, has a great rhythm and loves what he does. There was so much happening in a race like that and, over two miles, you get a great chance to look at it and take it all in." Moore partnered

the yard's previous Ascot Gold Cup champions Order Of St George (2016) and Kypriss (2022, 2024) - with the latter doubling up on the Downs in both seasons.

He added: "I was just talking to Aidan there and he said it is probably as good a staying performance as he has ever seen.

"It was nice for him to have a home to follow all the way - he probably thinks he got beat!"

While there was delight in one camp, John and Thady Gosden were rueing their luck with Trawlerman, another titan of the turf.

"Once you check and lose your rhythm, that's it in any race," said Gosden senior. "We were one and a half lengths in front and suddenly we're one and a half lengths behind." The stewards

reviewed the start and confirmed Amiloc was a runner, finding Crouch caught his leg on the starting equipment and became unbalanced.

Lake Forest (10-11f, left) swooped to conquer in the Group Two HKJC World Pool Lennox Stakes - and could be back in today's Visit Qatar Sussex Stakes if he is A1.

"We'll see how he is, but why not?" said Maureen Haggas about the neck lunger, chopped to 8-1 from more than double that with some bookmakers.

"He's a five-year-old gelding and he hasn't got to travel anywhere, we don't know about a mile but he stays the seven well.

"That's the plan, anyway, anything can happen overnight but that's our plan. The race didn't pan out how we thought it would; we expected them to go fast so it's a great effort."

GOODWOOD 2026 DAY 2

WISH A RASCAL!

By Melissa Jones

DR RASCAL (13-2) played with Haffner and Al Hudaiba to break new ground for Kaiya Fraser in the GroupTwo Coral Vintage Stakes.

Horse and jockey had been the victims of an unusual attack by a loose horse at Ascot a couple of weeks ago, but remarkably emerged with their unbeaten record together intact.

Fraser was bitten and Oliver Cole-trained Dr Rascal, a winner previously at Leicester, was badly spooked, ran loose and needed encouragement to go into the stalls.

But both showed they had toughness in spades and that trait was needed as the pair pursued a daring inside line, in a race Cole's father successfully targeted with Putra (1996), Central Park

Juvenile success a moment to savour for Fraser and Cole

(1997) and Strategic Prince (2006).

Once past Pikacha, the Charlie and Julia Rosier owned household only needed Fraser to push a few buttons to secure the prize by a cosy

half-length from Haffner, with 5-4 favourite Al Hudaiba a short-head away in third.

"The gap was just wide enough for me to go through," said Londoner Fraser, 23, introduced to racing by his

late grandfather Winston who loved a bet.

"I knew how much horse I had underneath me after riding him the previous two times and he was brave enough to go and do what I asked.

"He had to get a push into the stalls because he obviously had that experience

last time out. This means everything."

Cole, 12 months after succeeding his father on the stable licence, added: "In my first complete year as a trainer, this means a lot.

"He is a very good horse. We will probably look to the Dewhurst or something like that."

Saffie Osborne continued her purple patch with a thrilling late surge on Twilight Calls (6-1), who got up in the nick of time to foil Naana's Sparkle and Glamorous Breeze in the Coral Rewards Staker Handicap.

"Hopefully he can go Saturday for the Stewards Cup," said handler Richard Spencer, with bookies rating the eight-year-old's chances to better last year's fifth at 16-1.

"I think he enjoyed the winter sun in Dubai and the visor has made a big difference."
