A British backpacker who contracted sepsis after being bitten by a mosquito has been moved to a Thai hospital after being "stuck" overseas for two months.

Calvin Hill, 27, from Ammanford, Carmarthenshire, was flown to Thailand on Sunday after being in the Cambodian hospital for nine weeks.

His relatives said doctors estimate he will be there for about another month. The family have spent £8,000 travelling back and forth to be with Mr Hill since May.

Good to hear he is now well enough to travel to Thailand to receive additional treatment, hopefully he'll be fit enough to travel back to Ammanford soon. Chwarea teg!

As the US top dog Donald Trump touches down in the Turkish capital of Ankara for the NATO Leaders Summit - along with around 1,400 of his minions - a very strange tradition is raising its head once again. Everything that the charismatic 80-year-old relieves his body of will not touch foreign soil. Instead, it'll be collected in his personal toilet system, watched hawk-like by accompanying members of the Secret Service with pegs on their nose. But what in God's name is this all about? https://w

Nigel Farage has declared earning £270,000 for promoting gold bullion, making it the largest outside payment he has registered since entering Parliament and reigniting scrutiny over his lucrative earnings beyond Westminster.

Over 300,000 kids bunk off school - England World Cup

Chomper Higgot · yesterday at 12:18 AM1 day

Over 300,000 kids bunk off school, seemingly more interested in football than education. I wonder if these are the same kids the rightwing pearl clutchers insist are being discriminated against in schools? https://www.theguardian.com/education/2026/jul/06/thousands-of-children-absent-from-school-in-wake-of-overnight-england-world-cup-win
