Rishi Sunak, Britain's finance minister, said the country was not alone in feeling the effects of rising prices and the aftermath from Russia's invasion of Ukraine. "Countries around the world are seeing slowing growth, and the UK is not immune from these challenges," Sunak said in a statement.

Sunak announced further household assistance in May. Later in 2022, he is likely to accomplish more.Last week, the Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development predicted that Britain's GDP will grow at zero percent in 2023, the poorest prediction of any Group of 20 (G20) country for the next year, with the exception of sanctions-hit Russia.

The Confederation of British Industry issued a warning on June 13 about stagnation and the possibility of a recession. Despite the slowdown, the Bank of England is set to hike interest rates again on June 16, for the sixth time since December.

Inflation is expected to exceed 10% in the fourth quarter, five times the government's target. The majority of investors and analysts anticipate another quarter-point rate hike this week, bringing the bank rate to 1.25 percent, its highest level since 2009.

Brits warned as new Omicron BA.5 variant means you can catch COVID again within 4 weeks

coronavirus variant Omicron BA.5 can reinfect people despite protections. Previous advice suggested that anyone who is vaccinated, have received antibody treatments, or have developed natural immunity from any previous exposure were less at risk, especially in the initial months after.However, Andrew Robertson, the chief health officer of Western Australia, claims that he is seeing cases of reinfection within a matter of weeks, as reported by News.com.au.READ MORE: Inside Wimbledon's Royal Box dramas from 'boycott' by Duchess to Prince's F-bombHe explained: “What we are seeing is an increasing number of people who have been infected with BA.2 and then becoming infected after four weeks."So maybe six to eight weeks they are developing a second infection, and that's almost certainly either BA.4 or BA.5."The UK Health Security Agency (UKHSA) has recently reminded people to ensure their COVID-19 vaccinations are up to date and to continue following COVID-safe behaviours.This comes following the latest technical data indicated BA.4 and BA.5 have become dominant in the UK and are driving the recent increase in infections.

Pa. man sentenced to prison in rapes of 4 ex-university students

BELLEFONTE, Pa. - A man has been sentenced to decades in prison in the rapes of four former Penn State students over a seven-year period.Jeffrey Fields, 38, of Port Matilda was sentenced Friday in Centre County to 29 1/2 to 61 years in state prison in the assaults, which occurred between 2010 and 2017 in State College, the Centre Daily Times reported.Fields, who worked in State College at the time, pleaded guilty in March to all but two of the charges filed against him, including felony counts of rape and sexual assault.First Assistant District Attorney Sean McGraw said Fields was a "very sophisticated rapist" who committed "calculated, planned attacks on vulnerable women."One victim said in a statement to President Judge Pamela Ruest that the defendant "Changed my life completely. He changed who I am at my core."Defense attorney Steve Trialonas said in a sentencing memo that each of the rapes had "…overtones of power and control; two aspects in Jeff’s life that were absent outside these crimes." He said his client never challenged the evidence against him since his July 2020 arrest, never sought bail and didn't want the victims to have to testify.Fields spoke for nearly 20 minutes, calling his crimes "unspeakable.""I regret everything I’ve done.

Pa. dispatcher who didn't send ambulance charged in 2020 death

GREENE COUNTY, Pa. - A Pennsylvania 911 operator faces a rare charge of involuntary manslaughter for failing to send an ambulance to the rural home of a woman who died of internal bleeding a day later, despite a plea from the woman's daughter that without medical help "she's going to die."A Greene County detective last week filed charges against Leon "Lee" Price, 50, of Waynesburg, in the July 2020 death of Diania Kronk, 54, based on Price's reluctance to dispatch help without getting more assurance that Kronk would actually go to the hospital."I believe she would be alive today if they would have sent an ambulance," said Kronk’s daughter Kelly Titchenell, 38.Price, who also was charged with reckless endangerment, official oppression and obstruction, questioned Titchenell repeatedly during the four-minute call about whether Kronk would agree to be taken for treatment.Price was arraigned June 29 and released on bail. He did not reply to messages left at a home number listed in his name, and officials said a defense lawyer has not contacted district court."It has to be very clear throughout the entire state, that when you call it's not going to be conditioned on somebody on the other end of the phone saying there's going to be a service provided or not," said Lawrence E.

Pennsylvania lawmakers move state abortion amendment closer to 2023 vote

HARRISBURG, Pa. - A proposal to have voters decide whether to add a provision the Pennsylvania Constitution to say it does not guarantee any rights relating to abortion or public funding of abortions passed the Legislature on Friday and could be on the ballot next spring.The language was among five proposed Republican-written amendments that were approved by both the House and Senate after a pair of charged debates among state lawmakers who have promised their voters to fight for or against abortion rights."Do we want the people of the commonwealth to fund abortions — why are we so afraid to put this question before the people?" said Rep. Clint Owlett, of Tioga County, among many Republicans to focus on letting the voters decide.Democrats said the measure was a step that will put GOP lawmakers closer to achieving what is, for most of them, a longstanding goal: to prohibit or severely limit access to abortion."It's a pathway," said Rep.
