      How the world reacted to Liz Truss’s ‘chaotic’ resignation

      As the world reacted to the resignation of Liz Truss, Emmanuel Macron, the French President, said he hoped Britain would return to stability as soon as possible. Arriving at an EU summit, Mr Macron said he would not comment on British domestic politics, but added: “It is important that Great Britain regains political stability very quickly, and that is all I wish.” “We want, above all else, stability,” he said, adding, “On a personal level, I am always sad to see a colleague go.” The French newspaper Le Figaro wrote: “Liz Truss once described herself as ‘disruptor-in-chief’. For her critics, she was above all a ‘destructor-in-chief’ in her lightning term in Downing Street.  “She will remain the most ephemeral prime minister…

      Discovery of million years old genes in yeast reveals how parasitic DNA impacts genome evolution

      Washington: New research from the Stowers Institute for Medical Research, in collaboration with the National Institute for Biological Sciences in Beijing, China has uncovered a selfish gene family that has survived for over 100 million years – 10 times longer than any meiotic driver ever identified – casting new doubt on established beliefs on how natural selection and evolution tackle these threatening sequences. “The thinking has always been that because these genes are so nasty, they won’t stick around in populations for very long,” said Associate Investigator SaraH Zanders, Ph.D. “We just found out, that isn’t true, that the genomes simply can’t always get rid of them.” Meiotic drivers are thus named as they can acquire the ability to literally “drive” the transmission…

      Truss announces her resignation as the UK Prime Minister

      Liz Truss has announced her resignation as prime minister. 🔴Liz Truss's statement outside No. 10 following her resignation pic.twitter.com/cmUQBCuE2w— Evening Standard (@standardnews) October 20, 2022 Speaking outside Downing Street, she says she has told King Charles she is resigning as leader of the Conservative Party. An unprecedented crisis in British politics I’ve never seen anything like this. Let’s be clear what’s happened: yesterday Truss told us she was a fighter. But the level of chaos in government, Parliament and the Conservative Party has led Truss to a point where she knows she can’t continue. What happens now is the quickest turnover of power we have seen in modern times. This is a lightning speed change. The question is whether the…

      UK inflation accelerates to 40-year-high amid food cost rise

      London: UK inflation accelerated to a 40-year high in September as the soaring cost of food squeezed household budgets. The consumer price index rose 10.1%, compared with 9.9% the previous month, the Office for National Statistics said Wednesday. The new data shows inflation returned to the July peak and is once again at the highest since early 1982. The increase was driven by food prices, which leapt by 14.5% from a year earlier, the biggest jump since 1980, the ONS said. The rise increases expectations that the Bank of England will raise interest rates further and faster as it struggles to return inflation to its 2% target. It will also make it more difficult for the government’s new Treasury chief, who took office less than…
