Northern Lights could be visible over parts of the UK tonight
Quick Glance: Northern Lights Potential Display Over UK Tonight
  • The Met Office has announced that the Northern Lights could be visible across northern parts of the UK tonight. This phenomenon, also known as Aurora Borealis, usually appears above Iceland and Norway but is rarely visible from the UK, mostly limited to Scotland.

  • According to the Met Office, a combination of fast solar winds and the recent arrival of a coronal mass ejection from the sun could trigger a display from Sunday evening to Monday morning. The Northern Lights are created by particles from the sun carried on solar winds interacting with the Earth's atmosphere after being directed to the polar regions by the planet's magnetic field.

  • Different gases have varying effects on the color of the display. Green signifies solar particles interacting with oxygen, while purple, blue, or pink hues are a result of nitrogen. Only under 'severe space weather conditions' can the lights be visible throughout the UK - even then, stargazers require a clear sky and reduced light pollution.

Jeremy Hunt: Chancellor says £100,000 not a huge salary in Surrey
Quick Glance: Jeremy Hunt's View on £100k Income & Financial Realities
  • Jeremy Hunt's perception of £100,000 as a high income contrasts with the national median of £35,000, placing it significantly above average.

  • Even in affluent areas like Godalming and Ash, where Hunt is campaigning, the median income of £56,606 shifts the perspective on six-figure salaries.

  • Hunt's remarks were deemed inappropriate by experts as data shows many households are struggling due to living costs, including those in higher income brackets.

  • New tax and benefit regulations for higher incomes could lead to unexpected financial burdens, as the offer of free childcare for parents earning over £100,000 is limited.

Quick Glance: Compensation Demanded for Women Affected by Pension Age Changes - Ombudsman
  • In 1995, a law was passed setting out a timetable to gradually raise the retirement age for women to 65, aligning it with men.

  • The coalition government decided in 2010 to accelerate this timetable, resulting in the new higher retirement age for women being brought forward to 2018.

  • The ombudsman suggests that women in the sample cases should receive compensation ranging from £1,000 to £2,950, but the Department for Work and Pension (DWP) disagrees.

  • Based on the report, the DWP strongly doubts providing a remedy and has asked Parliament to intervene in light of the significant impact of maladministration.
