Injured people are being seen in viewing rooms for dead bodies. I love my job, but I don’t know how much longer I can copeSusie (not her real name) is a senior nurse in an A&E ward at a London hospitalA&E nurses thrive in a crisis. That’s why my colleagues and I came into the profession – to do the best for our patients in their moment of need, even in the most chaotic of circumstances. But the pressure is currently overwhelming. This winter, a bad but by no means unprecedented flu season has put immense strain on already struggling hospitals around the UK. Some patients are waiting days to be seen, with trusts using every inch of space to look after patients in corridors, physio rooms and even store cupboards, often without access to vital lifesaving equipment such as oxygen.In the London hospital I work in, patients brought in on trolleys are often left for hours in an indoor ambulance bay with an automatic sliding door that opens on to the elements.

6 hours ago Sunray: Fallen Soldier review – staple guns pressed into service in brutal payback thriller

When a demobbed British marine goes after his daughter’s killers, his old comrades pile in to beef up the relentless gunfightsThis is a boorish, blokey film, the cinematic equivalent of a man sitting on the tube with his legs spread wide apart. It’s a violent British revenge thriller starring ex-Marine (and Jeff Bridges lookalike) Tip Cullen as a veteran getting payback for the death of his teenage daughter from drugs. Everyone involved has clearly worked extremely hard with what looks like a very low budget, but the cracks do show; it’s impossible to take a gangland crime boss seriously when he’s wearing such a nasty cheap suit. To be fair, most of the funding looks like it’s been chucked at SUVs and imitation assault rifles for the relentless gunfights.As it happens, veteran marine Andy (Cullen) carries out his first kills using bits and bobs borrowed from work; he’s the manager of a hardware shop so he picks off the bad guys in a seedy drug den with a staple gun and hammer, hunti...

7 hours ago The gig economy: ticket inflation is getting worse, so where does all the money go?

Taylor Swift’s Eras tour and the Gallaghers’ ill-fated dabble with dynamic pricing have put the spotlight on how much we’re willing to pay for live music. But, on the other side of the equation, the costs can be exorbitant and the risks are eye-wateringThe news that Oasis were to reunite sparked a wave of euphoria across the nation at the end of last summer. But the nostalgia balloon was quickly punctured by the discovery that the tickets, initially priced at £148.50, had suddenly leapt to £355.20 due to dynamic pricing. The outcry quickly sparked a new debate about what constitutes a “fair” price for gig tickets, with the band themselves fanning the flames: Liam Gallagher told those bellyaching about the lack of transparency to “SHUTUP” and buy “Kneeling only” tickets for £100,000 instead.Dynamic pricing, where the cost rises in real time in lockstep with demand, is hardly new. Parallels are often made with the surge pricing used on budget airlines and taxi-booking apps, ...

And this column, too.There was a Scientific Revolution. And there has been since the Second World War a global framework that has helped order international relations. But whether that framework can be described as “liberal” or embodies what champions of the LIO claim it does – “an open world connected by the free flow of people, goods, ideas and capital” that was, in the words of Antony Blinken, the outgoing US secretary of state, “America’s greatest contribution to peace and progress” – is questionable.
