Gadgets & Gizmos: A timezone & crops for the Moon, AI nurses & Unidentified Submerged Objects
Tech expert Steve Caplin explains to Simon Rose why NASA believes the Moon should have its own time zone. NASA also plans to grow crops there in two years' time. Is space junk becoming dangerous to us on Earth? UFO spotters are turning their attention to the oceans. Amazon is ending its "just walk out" shops in the USA. NVIDIA is developing AI nurses while DrugGPT is hoping to provide doctors with second opinions. An Emo robot attempting to mimic human expressions turns out to be rather creepy. The invisibility shield is now available to buy. And Steve recommends an inexpensive micro sander kit for tricky angles.

The Bigger Picture: Why Sunak is so obsessed with Rwanda flights, GE polling & WASPI compensation
Political commentator Mike Indian considers why Rishi Sunak is so determined to get the Rwanda deportee flights off the ground, even to the extent of claiming it is more important than being part of the ECHR. Has he simply dug himself so big a hole that he can't get out again? Mike looks at the polling for the local elections and the General Election, asking if Labour really is on course for a landslide. And he wonders whether the next government will have to pay compensation to the WASPI women, which could be a considerable sum.

Thought for the Week: Private Equity undermining the UK’s role in global finance
The Bank of England has sounded its strongest warnings yet of the danger to financial stability from Private Equity, and the London Evening Standard simultaneously reported the serious attrition of London Stock Exchange trading activity. We explain the close connection between these, and call for a more global perspective. It's important that both Finance and Government rise to this challenge, so that the United Kingdom can continue to provide a leading role in the development of the global manifesto for which we called on 2nd January.
