And we will talk about that medical breakthrough for malaria. A second vaccine shown to be 80 effective. A lifeline for the child that dies every minute from the mosquito borne disease. Good evening. After weeks of speculation and years of indecision about the uks biggest Infrastructure Project, it would appear the birmingham to Manchester Leg of fast speed rail link hs2 is finally be coming off the rails. There are widespread reports today that a decision has already been made to scrap the Northern Branch of the line, and that a portion of that money saved will be invested in other transport projects. We are told the announcement will come on wednesday in the Prime Ministers speech to the conservative Party Conference, though number ten still insists a final decision is yet be be taken. Why the government would allow such speculation to overshadow its annual Party Conference, and one they have staged in manchester of all places, is a bit of a headscratcher.

and his randomness nine for trial. i think what happened was, when they started to leak out on friday morning, journalists weren t quite sure what they were looking at. they kind of hedge their bets they were just hearing it, probably from trump lawyers or something. and we re sure if it was real or not. now that the indictment is unsealed, we see her name stamped on it, that s overtaken by events. that hesitation has been left with a lingering this court distortion in the discourse. unless this is the judge in this case unless she steps the site. how could she delay the case? a number of ways. there could be a lot of pretrial fights over evidence in this case. i m sure the trump team will try to suppress all the evidence that the prosecutors obtained for the grand jury by overcoming attorney client privilege. that doesn t mean that that s not fair game to re-litigate. that was only a decision by a judge in washington, about what a grand jury could see. she is not down by that decision

oversight requests when it comes to, withdrawal from afghanistan. the situation at the border. i know the chairman for instance, of the oversight committee says they want to get back to the roots of investigating waste fraud and abuse when it comes to covid funding. there s members on the committee, like marjorie taylor greene, are saying no, we re gonna force mccarthy and comer to go back and re-litigate, and investigate the investigators for instance with the january six committee. given the leadership that s going on right now, and the demands on mccarthy, there s no guarantee that calmer is gonna be able to stick to what a lot of staff told me. are these more traditional priorities versus going after the bidens for instance on hunter biden, and transaction reports in the treasury department. and trying to link those to joe biden. even though there is no link
