Despite giving off radio silence since its defeat in 2023, The Opportunities Party has been consistently polling around 2 percent. Qiulae Wong wants to turn the party's chances around.

Some time ago on the 11th of September, we gave this talk on the very heart of our tradition and practice. September 11th in 1893 was the day Swami Vivekananda opened his transmission to the West (and the the world at large) at the Parliament of World Religions so for us it is a very sacred day when we commemorate the "turning of the wheel of dharma" yet again! Strangely, I haven't uploaded this talk until now. It felt fitting to do so since as I type this, we are in the midst of the vrśchika sankranti, that is, the sun's transition from the solar house of tulā (libra) and into vrśchika (scorpio) as per the Vedic system. Moments like this are considered incredibly auspicious for spiritual practice. There's also a flavor of a new beginning, of turning over a new page. As such, it is important to return to the fundamentals at a time like so there couldn't be a better moment for this video, I realize! In this talk, we describe Sri Ramakrishna's approach to Tāntrik spiritual practice which is really, at its core, the sincere and fervent performance of ritual worship, pūjā. If as a result of this talk, you're inspired to take up a dedicated pūjā practice, here is our playlist for step by step, mantra by mantra instruction for pūjā. May all be flame with awakened Consciousness! Jai Mā!Support the showLectures happen live every Monday at 7pm PST and again at Friday 11am PST Use this link and I will see you there:https://www.zoom.us/j/7028380815For more videos, guided meditations and instruction and for access to our lecture library, visit me at:https://www.patreon.com/yogawithnishTo get in on the discussion and access various spiritual materials, join our Discord here: https://discord.gg/U8zKP8yMrM

Ed Sheeran BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.Ed Sheeran has been squarely in the spotlight this week thanks to a string of events guaranteed to capture both the headlines and fan buzz. The biggest news by far comes from Netflix who will release an innovative music special titled One Shot with Ed Sheeran on November 21. This feature is already drawing massive anticipation because it was filmed in a single uninterrupted take across New York City, catching Ed performing spontaneously for hot dog vendors and subway commuters as the camera follows him through real, unscripted interactions. The production team behind Adolescence orchestrated this, marking a new style for concert films and giving fans a slice of New York street life with Ed as their guide as reported by Sunny 943. Looking ahead, Ed's enormous LOOP Tour for 2026 continues to make waves, especially with a newly announced show at Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas on July 18. Tickets are already on sale and the hype is palpable, with major outlets like Live Nation and the stadium itself showcasing details and supporting acts. Fans are scooping up tickets for his nationwide run through massive venues including Boston's TD Garden and Chicago's Soldier Field, signaling that Ed's superstar status is holding firm. On social media, Ed made a splash when he posted about a major win for English music education. Ed had campaigned directly to UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer earlier this year to promote better funding, more instruments, and wider curriculum for school music programs, particularly in underprivileged areas. As of November 8, PM Starmer formally announced Parliament's approval, marking the first significant government change to the music curriculum in over a decade. The move earned heartfelt acknowledgement from the Secretary of Education and gave Ed a moment on BBC's Graham Norton Show where he emphasized the creative industries' critical value to British identity and personal wellbeing.Gossip columns have also lit up lately with Ed's name thanks to rumors swirling about Taylor Swift's bridesmaid shortlist, with netizens throwing playful shade and suggesting Ed may not be included. These reports remain purely speculative and have mostly played out on social platforms rather than being verified by either artist.Meanwhile, Ed's artistic reach is expanding beyond the conventional. On November 21, in Munich's Hotel Bayerischer Hof, a candlelit concert titled Ed Sheeran meets Coldplay will offer fans an intimate experience blending his hits with those of Coldplay. And industry buzz is growing about the possibility of Ed collaborating with Latin pop star Elena Rose, with The Hollywood Reporter confirming that their teams are in talks but no music has been released yet.In sum, Ed Sheeran's past week has been defined by pioneering TV, landmark education advocacy, hot-selling tour announcements, and a dash of cheeky celebrity intrigue, keeping him firmly center stage both in music and the public conversation.Get the best deals https://amzn.to/3ODvOtaThis content was created in partnership and with the help of Artificial Intelligence AI

The political outfit formerly known as The Opportunities Party is continuing to chase the 5% MMP threshold to enter Parliament. . It's been almost a decade now since the party burst into the political scene, in its early days bankrolled by rich-lister and philanthropist Gareth Morgan who positioned it as a vehicle for "evidence-based" policy that's neither firmly right nor left. .

We're going to start today's show talking about the Regulatory Standards Bill -which has now passed its third reading in Parliament. Despite more than 98% of public submissions opposing the bill, it sailed through with the backing of all three coalition parties. That means it's now set to be signed in to law by the Governor-General. But what actually is the regulatory standards bill? It feels like there has been a lot of commentary from people for and against the bill .. but we wondered how many of you actually know what it will do?

My guest today is Samuel Kullmann, a Member of Parliament from Switzerland's Canton Bern, entrepreneur, and one of Europe's first openly pro-Bitcoin politicians. His journey began in 2015 when the Swiss National Bank dropped its euro peg, pushing him to study money, move from gold to Bitcoin, and embrace hard-money principles. We discuss how Switzerland's decentralized system — shared executive power, binding referendums, and a constitutional “debt brake” — aligns with Bitcoin's ethos. Samuel details his opposition to Switzerland's new digital ID law, warning of normalization and future linkage with CBDCs. ► If you got value, please like, comment, share, follow and support my work.

The Regulation Minister says a small number of groups have hijacked the public submission process. ACT's Regulatory Standards Bill has passed its third reading at Parliament. The policy, which provides principles for lawmaking, received 156-thousand public submissions – 98% of those opposed. David Seymour told Mike Hosking there have been more select committee submissions in the past two years than in the history of Parliament. He says organisations like Greenpeace spread mistruths and automate submissions for people. LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The Government says it will act on all 19 recommendations from Parliament's banking inquiry - and it's committed to increasing scrutiny around the banking sector. This comes as Westpac and ANZ report significant increases in profit, prompting concern from experts. Kent Duston from the Banking Reform Coalition says the proposed changes make good steps forward, but it's unclear how much of a difference they will make. "I think the big issue here is that the banks simply don't care. Whatever Parliament says - we're on the back of an inquiry from the Commerce Commission, another inquiry from Parliament from the select committee...whatever it is Parliament's saying, clearly the banks aren't listening."

Culprits of the El Wak stampede can't go unpunished. From the very person who approved the event to the Chief of Defence Staff, there must be clarity on what caused it, or the Chief of Defence should be held accountable. - Isaac Boamah-Nyarko, Member of Parliament for Effia

Bongani Bingwa speaks to Dr. Ivor Chipkin, Co-Founder and Director of the New South Institute (NSI), about South Africa’s deepening crisis of accountability. From Bosasa to Phala Phala, Life Esidimeni to Digital Vibes, corruption scandals have come and gone with little justice. Those who loot state resources have grown bold, knowing political protection and weak law enforcement keep them safe. But Dr. Chipkin believes change is finally within reach, a new piece of legislation, already passed by both houses of Parliament and awaiting the president’s signature, could mark a real turning point for accountability and governance in South Africa. 702 Breakfast with Bongani Bingwa is broadcast on 702, a Johannesburg based talk radio station.

'A win for people-led rewilding' - new hutting law to unlock public land to connect people and nature. Last night (4 November) MSPs in the Scottish Parliament voted to create a new hutting law compelling the Scottish Government to publish a model lease for hutting on public land. The change to the law will make it easier for people across Scotland to access public land for low-impact, sustainable hutting in future. New hutting law to unlock public land to connect people and nature Huts are simple homes where people can reconnect with nature and experience the land off-grid. Reforesting Scotland's 1000 Huts Campaign says that a culture of recreational hut use would benefit people greatly, including by bringing people close to nature, cultivating practical skills in low-carbon living, fostering community, and offering benefits for health and wellbeing. With hutting depending on access to land for huts, campaigners from Reforesting Scotland and the Scottish Rewilding Alliance had called on the Scottish Government to publish a draft lease for hutters on public land. The successful campaign for a legal change was inspired by a pilot project at Carnock in southwest Fife, which has seen a pioneering lease enable a group of hutters to build 12 huts on the national forest estate. Al Whitworth, Director of Reforesting Scotland, said: "This is another success for our ongoing 1000 Huts Campaign, and we're delighted that the Scottish Government has again recognised the benefits of making a model lease available for hutting on public land. We hope this will help unlock more sites where hutters can enjoy nature protected by a strong legal agreement." Steve Micklewright, co-convenor of the Scottish Rewilding Alliance and chief executive of Trees for Life, said: "It's great to see the Scottish Government supporting the need for a model lease for hutting in the new Land Reform Bill. As well as restoring nature in a big way, rewilding is about people and restoring our relationship with the land. Hutting offers a fantastic way for more people to share in, and care for, Scotland's landscapes. This is a win for people-led rewilding." The successful changes to the bill were proposed in Parliament by Ariane Burgess, Scottish Greens MSP for the Highlands and Islands. "Opening up more public land for hutting will in turn create all sorts of opportunities for people to get closer to nature and develop practical skills, and will foster community and co-operation. I'm really pleased to see the Scottish Government recognising the importance of hutting in the new Land Reform Bill by supporting my proposed amendment. This positive result should benefit people for years to come," said Ariane Burgess. The hutting win represents a double success for the Scottish Rewilding Alliance's recommendations on the Land Reform Bill. MSPs voted on 28 October to create a law obliging the owners of large landholdings over 1,000 hectares to publish plans on how they will increase biodiversity - which the Alliance says represents a 'big step towards a Rewilding Nation'. While celebrating the two new laws, the Alliance says that with Scotland one of the world's most nature-depleted countries, the Scottish Government needs to be more ambitious going forwards. Although the Scottish government is committed to protect at least 30% of land and sea for nature by 2030, just 2.5% of Scotland's land is currently rewilding - with current rates of increase meaning it will take 65 years before major nature restoration is underway across 30% of the country. Rewilding is the large-scale restoration of nature to a state where it can look after itself, focusing on restoring natural processes and, where appropriate, reintroducing missing species. The Scottish Rewilding Alliance is calling on the Scottish Government to declare Scotland the world's first Rewilding Nation, bringing in bold legislation to support rewilding.

One Auckland councillor says a long road's ahead before the city's close to congestion charging. A new bill has passed in Parliament that'll let councils charge drivers on specific roads at peak travel periods - beginning with the City of Sails. A report commissioned by the mayor estimates stalled traffic costs the city $2.6 billion dollars each year. Howick Ward councillor Maurice Williamson says a long process of consultation, and setting up a board will now begin. "I'll make the wild prediction now - you will not see an operational congestion charging regime for a minimum of at least three years from now."

The Police Minister says like many Kiwis, he's disappointed - by a scathing IPCA report highlighting past failures in senior Police management of complaints about one of their own. The police watchdog report has detailed how staff, including then-Commissioner Andrew Coster, didn't investigate allegations when they were made against Deputy Commissioner Jevon McSkimming. Newstalk ZB senior political correspondent Barry Soper unpacked the discussions. LISTEN ABOVESee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

From the lock-up in Parliament, I share why this may be the first genuinely good-news budget in years.

In his latest interview with BizNews, Ian Cameron, the Chairperson of Parliament's Portfolio Committee on Police and the Democratic Alliance's Police Spokesperson, talks to Chris Steyn about the Madlanga Commission and Parliament Ad Hoc Committee hearings and some of the key players, including former Police Minister Senzo Mchunu and suspended Deputy National Commissioner Shadrack Sibiya. As for tenderpreneurs like Cat Matlala and Hangwani Maumela, Cameron states: “The only way for organised crimes and these types of persons or entities to flourish is when the State is involved at a very senior level… It worries me that some people implicated are still in their positions or mentioned or continuing to work.” Cameron also details the horror findings on his recent oversight visit to Nelson Mandela Bay where the Flying Squad only has one vehicle, a single cab bakkie with over 300,000 kilometers. As for irregular expenditure of over R650 million in SAPS in the past financial year, Cameron says it “points to a much more deeply rooted corruption-and-fraud network that has been built in supply chain management and procurement”. He charges that “all of these things” add up to a picture of “leadership collapse- and urges: “…if we don't replace a large number of the so-called leaders, nothing can change on the ground”.

On this day in Tudor history, 12 November 1555, Queen Mary I turned back the religious clock. Parliament passed the Second Statute of Repeal, restoring papal authority and reuniting England with the Catholic Church after more than twenty years of upheaval. I explore how Mary achieved what had once seemed impossible: Undoing her father Henry VIII's break with Rome and her brother Edward VI's Protestant reforms Bringing England spiritually home to the Pope Balancing faith and politics by protecting nobles' monastic lands And why, intriguingly, she kept the title “Supreme Head of the Church” even as she restored papal power For three short years, England was once again Catholic, until Mary's death in 1558 and Elizabeth I's sweeping reversal. Was Mary's vision of unity ever possible in a country so divided by faith?

fWotD Episode 3112: 1975 Australian constitutional crisis Welcome to featured Wiki of the Day, your daily dose of knowledge from Wikipedia's finest articles.The featured article for Tuesday, 11 November 2025, is 1975 Australian constitutional crisis.The 1975 Australian constitutional crisis, also known simply as the Dismissal, culminated on 11 November 1975 with the dismissal from office of the prime minister, Gough Whitlam of the Australian Labor Party (ALP), by Sir John Kerr, the governor-general of Australia. Following this, Kerr commissioned the Leader of the Opposition, Malcolm Fraser of the Liberal Party, as prime minister on the condition that he advise a new election. It has been described as the greatest political and constitutional crisis in Australian history.The Labor Party under Whitlam came to power in the election of 1972, ending 23 consecutive years of Liberal–Country Coalition government. Labor won a majority in the House of Representatives of 67 seats to the Coalition's 58 seats, but faced a hostile Senate. In May 1974, after the Senate voted to reject six of Labor's bills, Whitlam advised governor-general Sir Paul Hasluck to call a double dissolution election. The election saw Labor re-elected, with its House of Representatives majority reduced from nine to five seats, although it gained seats in the Senate. With the two houses of Parliament still deadlocked, pursuant to section 57 of the Australian Constitution, Whitlam was able to narrowly secure passage of the six trigger bills of the earlier double dissolution election in a joint sitting of Parliament on 6–7 August 1974, the only such sitting held in Australia's history.Whitlam's tenure in office proved highly turbulent and controversial, and in October 1975, the Opposition under Fraser used its control of the Senate to defer passage of appropriation bills needed to finance government expenditure which had already been passed by the House of Representatives. Fraser and the Opposition stated that they would continue to block supply in the Senate unless Whitlam called a fresh election for the House of Representatives, and urged Kerr, who had been appointed governor-general on Whitlam's advice in July 1974, to dismiss Whitlam unless he acceded to their demand. Whitlam believed that Kerr would not dismiss him as prime minister, and Kerr did nothing to make Whitlam believe that he might be dismissed.On 11 November 1975, the crisis came to a head as Whitlam went to seek Kerr's approval to call a half-Senate election in an attempt to break the parliamentary deadlock. Kerr did not accept Whitlam's request, and instead dismissed him as prime minister and appointed Fraser as caretaker prime minister on the understanding that he would immediately call a general election. Acting quickly before all ALP parliamentarians became aware of the change of government, Fraser and his parliamentary allies were able to secure passage of the supply bills through the Senate and advised Kerr to dissolve Parliament for a double dissolution election. Fraser and his Liberal-Country Coalition were elected with a massive majority in the federal election held the following month.The events of the Dismissal led to only minor constitutional change. The Senate retained its power to block supply, and the governor-general the power to dismiss government ministers; however, these powers have not since been used to force a government from office. Allegations of CIA involvement in Whitlam's dismissal have been made, but these were denied by both Kerr and Whitlam. Kerr was widely criticised by Labor supporters for his actions, resigned early as governor-general, and lived much of his remaining life abroad.This recording reflects the Wikipedia text as of 01:06 UTC on Tuesday, 11 November 2025.For the full current version of the article, see 1975 Australian constitutional crisis on Wikipedia.This podcast uses content from Wikipedia under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License.Visit our archives at wikioftheday.com and subscribe to stay updated on new episodes.Follow us on Mastodon at @wikioftheday@masto.ai.Also check out Curmudgeon's Corner, a current events podcast.Until next time, I'm generative Ruth.

Domestic Crisis: US Political Conflict Compared to Charles I and the Long Parliament. Gaius and Germanicus, speaking in Londinium, explore a significant domestic threat to the American Empire by drawing an analogy to 1641-1642 England, prior to the regicide of Charles I. They argue that the current US "emperor" is ignoring the repudiation registered by a recent vote, similar to Charles I ignoring the Long Parliament. Gaius fears that relentless impeachment awaits if Democrats dominate Congress. A scenario is hypothesized where a "blue governor" defies a presidential order (e.g., regarding ICE business), is detained, inciting Democratic rage and an overwhelming electoral victory. This state defiance is compared to historical examples like South Carolina against Andrew Jackson. Germanicus notes that escalating defiance by governors like Pritzker or Newsom is currently rhetorical, but an actual confrontation requiring federal force (Marshals, National Guard) would be necessary to truly break the Constitution. Such a confrontation could resemble an insurrection, potentially turning Americans against the president if handled poorly, or against the governor if he seems to be unraveling the Republic. Misperception is identified as a dangerous factor, referencing the panic in London when Charles I sought to arrest six traitors. Gaius insists that things get out of control without an "evil mastermind" and that any political trigger after the 2026 election could lead to impeachment. They agree that participants often fail to see the escalation toward crisis, much like in 1642 or 1914. Germanicus concludes that since Mr. Trump is unlikely to compromise, this lack of restraint could push things "over the edge." 1649

Australian Senator Jordon Steele-John joins Dylan Alcott and Angus O’Loughlin to share what life is really like inside Parliament as a wheelchair user and one of the few disabled politicians in Australia. From rushing to Senate votes without extra time allowances to reshaping accessibility in politics, Jordon gives a candid and inspiring look at how inclusion, policy, and representation intersect in Australia’s most powerful building. The conversation spans his journey from a 23-year-old Greens candidate from WA to a national advocate for accessibility, neurodiversity, and disability rights. Jordon opens up about moments of misunderstanding on the campaign trail, how his ADHD and cerebral palsy shape his leadership, and why true inclusion starts with “getting our own house in order.” This episode is full of insight, humour, and practical advice for anyone—disabled or not—who wants to create change in their community.

Olyat, amely megszólítja Magyarország gazdag kulturális örökségét.En: He wanted to buy a special gift for his mentor, who had instilled in him a love for architecture—a gift that would express Hungary's rich cultural heritage.Hu: Ákos, Zsófi és Bence a körülötte nyüzsgő turisták elől menekülve csatlakoztak hozzá.En: Ákos was joined by Zsófi and Bence, escaping the bustling tourists around them.Hu: "Ez itt kész őrület!" nevetett Bence, a baráti társaság vidám hangján.En: "This is madness!" laughed Bence, the jovial voice of their group.Hu: "Próbáljunk máshova menni" - javasolta Zsófi, miközben egy kis empátiát fütyült a hűvös szél.En: "Let's try going somewhere else," suggested Zsófi as the chilly wind whistled with a hint of empathy.Hu: Ákosra nézett és hozzátette: "Hallottam, hogy egy kis kézműves bolt nyílt a közelben. Ott kevésbé zsúfolt lehet."En: She looked at Ákos and added, "I heard a small artisan shop opened nearby. It might be less crowded there."Hu: Ákos elmerült a gondolataiban.En: Ákos immersed himself in his thoughts.Hu: A színes kalotaszegi szőttesek, a kalocsai hímzések és a pécsi kerámiák mind-mind emlékeztették őt a magyar örökség gazdagságára.En: The colorful Kalotaszeg weavings, the Kalocsa embroideries, and the Pécs ceramics all reminded him of the richness of Hungarian heritage.Hu: Egy kis bolt talán rejteget valami különlegeset.En: A little shop might just hide something special.Hu: Hármasban elindultak az új cél felé.En: The trio set off toward the new destination.Hu: Az utcák csendesebbé váltak, ahogy közeledtek egy kis sikátorba, ahol a kézműves bolt rejtőzött.En: The streets grew quieter as they approached a small alley where the artisan shop was hidden.Hu: Az üzletbe belépve a béke és csend fogadta őket.En: When they entered the shop, they were greeted by peace and quiet.Hu: A polcokon kézzel készített tárgyak sorakoztak, minden darab egy-egy történetet mesélve.En: Handcrafted items lined the shelves, each piece telling its own story.Hu: Ákos szeme rögtön megakadt egy gyönyörű porcelán vázán.En: Ákos's eyes immediately caught a beautiful porcelain vase.Hu: Aranyló mustrái finoman visszaadták Budapest építészeti vonásait.En: Its golden patterns subtly echoed the architectural features of Budapest.Hu: Az egyszerű, mégis elegáns dizájn lenyűgözte őt.En: The simple yet elegant design fascinated him.Hu: "Tökéletes!" kiáltott fel, megérintve a tárgyat.En: "Perfect!" he exclaimed, touching the object.Hu: Érezte, hogy ez a váza jelképezi mindazt, amit keresett.En: He felt that this vase symbolized everything he had been searching for.Hu: Vásárlás után, ahogy kilépett a boltból, melegség ömlött szét benne.En: After buying it, as he stepped out of the shop, a warmth spread through him.Hu: Megtalálta, amit keresett, és közben felfedezte, mennyire inspiráló tud lenni a helyi művészet.En: He had found what he was looking for and, in the process, discovered how inspiring local art could be.Hu: A Duna partján hagyományokat és kultúrát hordozó ajándékával a kezében Ákos közelebb érezte magát mind a mentorához, mind saját gyökereihez.En: With his gift brimming with tradition and culture in his hand, Ákos felt closer both to his mentor and his own roots by the Danube's shore.Hu: Az Országház ég felé törő tornyai alatt, a ragyogó naplementében, Ákos már nem csak a vásárlás, de a hely szellemiségével is gazdagodva indult haza.En: Beneath the soaring spires of the Országház, in the glowing sunset, Ákos set off home, enriched not just by his purchase but also by the spirit of the place.

Concerns have been raised that rough sleepers will be pushed into unfamiliar suburbs outside of Auckland CBD, following government ministers' consideration of new measures. Justice Minister Paul Goldsmith says he had been tasked with making sure police were equipped to halt public disorder. When questioned explicitly about the ban, he said, "We're working our way through those issues... when we've got something to announce, we'll announce that." As well as this, the Regulatory Standards Bill has passed its second reading in Parliament, having seen a few changes made to the bill in the select committee process. The bill, having received 156,000 public submissions, almost 99% in opposition to the bill, is controversial. Constitutional experts and critics of the bill have expressed concerns that the amendments do not address its failings, and the “ideological” way it has been written means that if passed, the bill will have a lasting impact. The bill also lacks references to Te Tiriti o Waitangi. For our weekly catch-up with ACT Party's Simon Court, News and Editorial Director and Monday Wire Host Joel spoke to him about both these topics.

In November 1605, a group of religious radicals attempted to assassinate King James I, the man they deemed responsible for their oppression. Guy Fawkes was meant to light the fuse, bringing the Houses of Parliament down in a catastrophic explosion. He failed.   But what drove him and the other plotters to this drastic action?  In this re-released episode, hear from curators Charles Farris, Alden Gregory, and Brett Dolman, as they discuss the context of religious persecution and political discontent that led to the Gunpowder Plot.   Discover more about Guys Fawkes and the Tower of London.

//The Wire//2300Z November 5, 2025////ROUTINE////BLUF: ANOTHER MIGRANT CRIMINAL "MISTAKENLY" RELEASED IN SOUTH LONDON ALMOST A WEEK AGO. PLANE CRASH IN KENTUCKY RESULTS IN 11X FATALITIES AS SEVERAL REMAIN MISSING. VEHICLE RAMMING ATTACK CONDUCTED IN FRANCE.// -----BEGIN TEARLINE------International Events-United Kingdom: This morning the Metropolitan Police revealed that another migrant criminal had "mistakenly" been released by the prison services in South London. Brahim Kaddour-Cherif, an Algerian migrant, was released in south London allegedly by accident over a week ago, while he was serving a sentence for trespassing with intent to burglarize. Some sources also claim that the fugitive has a history of sexual offenses, and the Metropolitan Police claim that they were only notified of this mistake yesterday.France: This morning a vehicle ramming attack was carried out on Île d'Oléron, a small island tourist destination on the west coast of France. Many people were wounded after an attacker deliberately drove his vehicle into a crowd. 2x people remain in critical condition, and 9x others were wounded during the attack. The assailant has not yet been identified, however locals state that he was known to local police.-HomeFront-Kentucky: Overnight the casualty count regarding yesterday's plane crash rose to a total of 11x fatalities as several people remain missing. As of this morning, the fires are mostly out, and firefighters remained on the scene throughout much of the day. The main structures that the plane crashed in to on the ground were the Ford auto factory, as well as UPS's own logistics hub that serviced the airport. As a result, this major regional package sorting facility will be offline for some time.USA: Around the United States, the rollup of yesterday's election resulted in a near total victory for Democrat candidates across the board. Zohran Mamdani was elected Mayor of New York City by a wide margin, and Abigail Spanberger won the Governorship in Virginia. Also in Virginia, Ghasala Hashmi won the election for Lieutenant Governor, making her the first Muslim woman to hold the office in state history. Jay Jones also won his election for Attorney General, despite the scandal during his campaign surrounding his comments calling for the murder of his enemy's wife and children in a text exchange. Analyst Comment: Jones also quite literally tried to kick a dog at a polling place on election day, which although a unique campaign tactic, didn't seem to hurt his election chances either.-----END TEARLINE-----Analyst Comments: In the United Kingdom, the most concerning detail of the second-migrant-release case is that this release took place on October 29th. Per their statements, the Met only found out about this release yesterday afternoon, almost a full week after the criminal was released.This situation was also made worse by comments made (or rather, not made) during the Prime Minister's Questions session in Parliament yesterday. Deputy Prime Minister David Lammy was hounded by a few MPs for refusing to answer the question of whether or not any more migrants had accidentally been released since the Kebatu case came to light. After his refusal to answer this question the first time, this ballooned into him being pressed again and again, resulting in him refusing to answer the simple question roughly half a dozen times. At that moment, it didn't make much sense as to why this level of resistance was offered up by Lammy, or why he became so belligerent at this specific question being asked. After all he could just say "not that I'm aware of" and move on, no big deal. Instead, he became quite belligerent to the point that this may have been the indicator for something else.Consequently, this morning the picture became more clear...at the exact moment that he was answering questions in Parlia
