5 d. ago ‘First job bonus’ worth £5k planned for young people, Stride tells Tory conference – UK politics live

Shadow chancellor sets out spending plans as party conference continues in ManchesterMel Stride, the shadow chancellor, was doing an interview round for the Conservatives this morning, and Miatta Fahnbulleh, the faith and communities minister, was on the air on behalf of the government. They were both asked about the latest development in the flag phenomenon – the former footballer turned property developer Gary Neville saying that he took down a union flag flying at one of his building sites because he felt it was being used in a “negative fashion”.Asked if Neville (a Labour supporter) had a point, Fahnbulleh told ITV’s Good Morning Britain:I think he’s really right, that there are people who are trying to divide us at the moment I spent a lot of time going around our communities, talking to people. People are ground down. We’ve had a decade-and-a-half in which living standards haven’t budged and people have seen their communities held down. And you will get people trying to stoke ...

5 d. ago ‘Messiness makes you different’: Lukas Gage on meds, trauma, memoir – and filming TV’s most sexually frank scene

The White Lotus and Euphoria star has written a ‘premature celebrity memoir’ that takes in abuse, family dysfunction, personality disorders, shame and heartbreak. He explains why now was the right time to write itThere’s a telling moment in Lukas Gage’s new book where he refers to it as a “premature celebrity memoir”. It’s a self-deprecating joke, of course, but it is also true. Gage is not megawatt famous – at least not yet. Chances are, though, if you have seen him then you won’t have forgotten him. In 2020, he went viral after leaking an audition video in which the director – forgetting that he wasn’t on mute – is caught judging his living arrangements (“These poor people live in these tiny apartments,” he says, before Gage intervenes to let him know he can hear every word). The following year, Gage appeared in the first season of The White Lotus: in one scene, his character Dillon is caught by a hotel guest standing stark naked in the manager’s office, while said manager perform...

5 d. ago The truth about vitamin pills: should midlife women start taking supplements – and if so, which ones?

The market for supplements is booming and it can be difficult to know which are actually any use. Dietitians give the lowdown on those you should take and those you can ditchI used to proudly eschew health supplements. Doctors always told me that if you eat a healthy diet, you’d only be flushing money down the loo. Studies showed that people who popped multivitamins didn’t live any longer, with some even dying a little younger – a 4% higher mortality risk according to one just last year. But now I’m unequivocally post youth, my supplement intake has crept up to four a day: vitamin D (by NHS decree), magnesium (for sleep, muscle relaxing, brain and stress; pretty sure it’s helping), lion’s mane mushroom (cognition; no idea if it’s working), biotin (hair health; ditto) and I’m considering crowbarring more in if I can afford them. Am I a total sucker, though? Do women really need to start taking supplements when they hit middle age?“There are plenty of reasons why we might need supplem...
