What does one million square feet of empty space look like? Anyone who stepped inside the NHS Nightingale Hospital in East London yesterday will know only too well. The facility, constructed under military supervision inside the ExCel conference centre in April, is no longer there; no equipment, no staff and certainly no patients. ‘It’s closing down,’ a security guard told us. Even without venturing through the entrance, that much was obvious. An NHS road sign initially erected to direct ambulances arriving at the site could be seen lying beside a wall, and dozens of partition walls — some with NHS labels attached — were dumped in a storage pen. Footage from Queen’s Hospital in Romford — just ten miles from London’s Nightingale — on social media appeared to show dozens of emergency vehicles queueing outside the hospital, as medics in full PPE gear patrolled Nevertheless, NHS England insists the ‘London Nightingale . . . remains on standby and will be available to support the capital’s

President-elect Joe Biden complained that COVID-19 vaccinations are 'falling behind' and vaccinating the American public could take 'years' instead of months, in fresh remarks on the coronavirus pandemic.  At Wilmington's Queen theater on Tuesday, Biden again warned that 'things are going to get worse before they get better' and gave President Donald Trump some advice on how he could improve things now.  'It would make a huge difference for President Trump to say "wear masks," Biden said. 'I hope the president will clearly and unambiguously urge all Americans to take the vaccine once it's available,' the president-elect also said.  President-elect Joe Biden voiced concerns about coronavirus vaccine distribution telling reporters in Delaware Tuesday that it's 'falling behind' and could take 'years' if the pace doesn't quicken  President-elect Joe Biden also talked about masking, begging President Donald Trump

Hillary Thomas-Hayward officially became Hilaria Baldwin when she wed husband Alec in a star-studded wedding, complete with tributes to her claimed Spanish roots, with the bride wearing a mantilla-inspired veil, cooling herself with a flamenco hand fan and nuptial readings in both English and Spanish. It would be another eight years until it was alleged Hilaria was misrepresenting her background, when a woman tweeted last week: 'You have to admire Hilaria Baldwin's commitment to her decade long grift where she impersonates a Spanish person.' The 36-year-old has given countless interviews where she boasts of her childhood and family in Mallorca, claiming she moved to the US when she was 19 to attend New York University.  The mother-of-five sometimes speaks with a Spanish lilt and once forgot the English word for 'cucumber' while cooking on the Today show.  Hilaria admitted in a rambling video over the weekend that her real name is Hillary, she was born in Boston, she

A bargain-hunting mum has discovered the heart-shaped paperweight she bought at a garage sale was actually an urn - with someone's ashes inside. Jessica Roberts, from Wellington, in Ohio, took to Facebook on December 15 to reveal the $1.30 trinket, bought five years ago, was not as it seemed.  'I was sitting here looking at random things on Amazon and I see the same paper weight being sold for $30.00,' she wrote. She bought the seemingly innocent decoration as a paper weight, but soon discovered it was actually an urn with ashes inside 'So I click on the picture to see what is so special about it and find its a type of urn for small amounts of human or animal ashes.' Ms Roberts said she was at a loss as to what to do.  'Do I open it? Do I throw it away? If I've learned anything from horror movies this is how you get haunted,' she said. The next morning, opened it up and discovered there were indeed ashes inside. Jessica Roberts took to Facebook on Decemb

Ex-Foreign Secretary Jeremy Hunt says the UK 'is beginning to look weak' and is being 'pushed around' over its failure to protect Nazanin Zaghari-Ratcliffe.   The British-Iranian dual national has been detained in Iran since 2016, when she was sentenced to five years in prison over allegations of plotting to overthrow the Iranian government. Iranian officials claim the 42-year-old charity administrator, who worked for the Thomson Reuters Foundation, had been training people to spread propaganda against the country while running a BBC Persian online journalism course. She denies the allegations. Mrs Zaghari-Ratcliffe has been afforded diplomatic protection by the UK Government, which argues that she is innocent. They also say her treatment by Iran failed to meet obligations under international law. But Mr Hunt has hit out at the UK's failure to protect Mrs Zaghari-Ratcliffe and called for consequences for Tehran over her treatment. His call comes after the Foreign Of

A statue of a freed slave kneeling at Abraham Lincoln's feet has been taken down from a Boston park after thousands signed a petition for its removal because it made them feel 'uncomfortable'.   Workers removed the Emancipation Memorial early Tuesday from a park just off Boston Common where it had stood since 1879. The controversial monument showed the 16th president of the United States with a freed slave appearing to kneel at his feet.  It is a replica of the famous Freedmen's Memorial in Washington DC which was erected in 1876 to commemorate the Emancipation Proclamation and honor Lincoln for abolishing slavery in America.  Some said the monument showed a newly freed shirtless man rising to his feet while shaking off the broken shackles on his wrists, but critics perceived it as the former slave kneeling before his white emancipator.  Its removal comes as statues of racist and Confederate figures have been toppled across America in recent months in the wake of the po
