Nvidia said the company is committed to ensuring its products are "sourced responsibly.” None of the other subjects provided a comment. The story is running on the AP, in the Washington Post, the Independent, ABC News, and many other newspapers worldwide. washingtonpost.com/business/2026/…

Liberian regulators recorded multiple illegal discharges between 2016 and 2023, Bea Mountain obstructing inspectors and withholding data. Yet the company was only given one fine, of $99,000, inexplicably later reduced to $25,000.

@JAHeale Aethelstan would have deemed it appropriate for a great day. This is a rare occasion where Ed Davey is correct.

Quote of the day from Alex Burghart on Ed Davey’s call for a bank holiday in July 2027 to mark 1,100 years since Athelstan’s unification of England: “We will all be celebrating hard. I'm not sure that Athelstan will want us to take a day off work, but I hope that everyone around the country gets the chance to raise a glass to his late majesty.”

I've spent the day trying to find the boss of South East Water Dave Hinton. There was no sign of him at HQ, and he didn't return my phone calls or emails to the press office. South East Water instead say, "The focus is on restoring water"

As the water problems reach their fifth day in Tunbridge Wells, our political reporter, Michael Keohan, has gone to put your questions to the CEO of South East Water. More here: bbc.in/440Jw1C

@jjbiggsy @KemiBadenoch is always behind the curve with her questions, flogging subjects that are already exhausted. There have been 4 days of Budget debate. Maybe take a lesson from the real opposition @EdDavey1 . Maybe engage in real debate.

PM 2.5 pollution shown on our Watershed Pollution Map. You can trace our road network, town centres + power stations in air pollution associated with heart disease, stroke, COPD + asthma. Burning fossil fuels + wood are major sources of PM 2.5.

Burning fossil fuels to generate energy, power cars, cook or heat homes generates PM 2.5 air pollution - linked to heart disease, breathing difficulties, vulnerability to infectious disease + mental health issues. share.google/35beXPH14AxEOT…

🚨 NEW: Lib Dem leader Ed Davey, who has a disabled son, responds to Angela Rayner’s stamp duty underpayment "I understand it is normally the role of opposition leaders to jump up and down and call for resignations – as we’ve seen plenty of from the Conservatives already. "Obviously if the ethics advisor says Angela Rayner has broken the rules, her position may well become untenable. "But as a parent of a disabled child, I know the thing my wife and I worry most about is our son’s care after we have gone, so I can completely understand and trust that the Deputy Prime Minister was thinking about the same thing here. "Perhaps now is a good time to talk about how we look after disabled people and how we can build a more caring country"
