£48m border control post may be obsolete as 'yet another Brexit bonus' slammed
North Wales Live readers are unhappy to hear that a facility designed to handle the additional red tape resulting from Brexit could become obsolete before it even opens its doors. The UK's departure from the EU in 2020 introduced extra bureaucracy at the border between the UK and the European Union, including sanitary and phytosanitary checks on fresh produce from the EU. The previous UK Government postponed implementing these checks due to fears of price increases for businesses and consumers. However, they did not abandon these checks and continued to develop the necessary building. In North Wales, the UK Government allocated £47.8m for the construction of a border control post at Holyhead, which would be managed by the Welsh Government. Kier Group was awarded a £41m construction contract last summer, and work began on the development at Parc Cybi, just outside Holyhead, with completion expected by autumn. However, the site could potentially become an expensive folly before it even becomes operational. In May, the UK and EU reached a new SPS agreement aimed at reducing trade barriers for food, plants, and animal products, thereby making trade between the UK and EU more affordable and straightforward. The Welsh Government has stated: "We are considering the implications of a potential SPS agreement with the EU on the future implementation of the Border Target Operating Model in Wales. The Deputy First Minister will make a statement to the Senedd in the coming weeks." On Tuesday, they confirmed they will not push on with final commissioning and staffing of the site. Huw Irranca-Davies MS, Deputy First Minister and Cabinet Secretary for Climate Change and Rural Affairs, said he would keep that decision under review until the final details of the agreement with the EU are known. Plaid Cymru leader Rhun ap Iorwerth, MS for Ynys Mon, commented on the situation saying: "The chaotic situation regarding the need – or not – for border control posts is symptomatic of the chaos and costs surrounding Brexit as a whole. Large sums of public money have been spent, Anglesey Council has faced significant pressures, and we even lost the very important truck stop that went to make way for post-Brexit border infrastructure. We need assurances now that the taxpayer won't be left further out of pocket, but the sad thing is that much of the damage caused will remain with us for many years to come." Commenter Driver123456 says: 'Why did they have to take the truck stop? It was an absolute joke, but they insisted they wanted that site instead of the clear land across the way. They could have built on that, but paid way over the odds for the land!' ThePickledLiver replies: 'There will still be 100 HGV parking spaces, and while the inspection shed might not be useful, there's the admin block which would make an excellent drivers' R&R. "Small layout changes and it'll be perfectly usable/re-useable as something other than a border post. Not quite 'white elephant' stuff. We could perhaps copy what they do (and I've used) on the continent and provide 1 and 2-bed rooms for drivers. 10/15 euro a night, nothing fancy but better than bunking in the cab. Must pay for itself 'cos there's plenty of them. And that's before factoring-in the times that the ferries are delayed by weather. That would cover at least, erm, 2 million, ish.' Captcheese thinks: 'Quite eye watering at 47 million for a shower block and bogs for HGV drivers.' LlainPeris thinks: 'We are all paying for the Brexit Mess - 'taking back control' was always very misleading at best: what needs controlling is the way multi-national companies pay so little tax, and for that you need multi-national action by governments not Little Britain acting on its own.' Northwalessaint agrees: 'Yet another 'Brexit Bonus'!' Marti1 adds: 'It seems leaving the EU cost more than staying.' PaulLuckock writes: 'The Welsh electorate voted for Brexit and so we collectively have to take responsibility for the settled will of the people in 2016.' Steamnut points out: 'And that wonderful Holyhead truck-stop would still be open. Amazing how we keep doing this at all levels both national and local. And yes, Conwy we are talking about you. We need more accountability; people who sign-off on expensive schemes ought to pay the price for their mistakes.' Jnrm replies: 'Well the Welsh people voted for, and therefore 'signed off' on Brexit, a really expensive scheme, so I guess they should be footing the bill then. It was the UK Government that paid £47.8 million to fund this facility, not the Welsh Government. Plaid states there was a large sum of public money spent which has been wasted and that taxpayers shouldn't be left out of pocket. Well it's the English taxpayer who should be complaining as they funded it!'

Another pandemic? Deadly new bat viruses found in China, Scientists warn of up to 75 percent fatality rate
All about Henipaviruses The discovery site Live Events Wake-up call? The solution (You can now subscribe to our (You can now subscribe to our Economic Times WhatsApp channel Researchers from multiple Chinese universities, together with international collaborators, recently released a study in PLOS collected kidney samples from 142 bats representing ten species between 2017 to 2020 across five Yunnan locations. Genetic sequencing revealed 22 viral species, including 20 entirely new viruses, and two henipaviruses closely related to deadly Hendra and Nipah strainsHenipaviruses are notorious for causing severe brain inflammation and respiratory illness, with fatality rates as high as 75 percent in humans. Nipah outbreaks in Malaysia and Bangladesh, and Hendra cases in Australia, have underscored their deadly potential. Alarmingly, Yunnan bat henipavirus 1 shares up to 71 percent similarity in key proteins (N and L) with Nipah and Hendra , marking it as the closest known wild development comes a few years after the deadly COVID-19 outbreak resulted in millions of deaths around the world. Its first known case was identified in China 's Wuhan city in late makes this especially concerning is the discovery site, bat kidneys, and the source of urine. Bats roost in orchards adjacent to rural villages, creating an environment where urine droplets may contaminate fruit or water, exposing villagers and their animals. Molecular virologist Vinod Balasubramaniam emphasized that this precise localization 'raises alarm about potential human exposure via contaminated fruits or water'.The team also identified a new protozoan parasite, Klossiella yunnanensis, and two novel bacterial species, including Flavobacterium yunnanensis. This focuses on the 'infectome,' the full range of microbes within the bat stress that spillover is not inevitable. It requires the right viral traits and sufficient exposure, often via intermediaries. For instance, fruit bat–related Nipah cases in Bangladesh arose from contaminated date-palm sap. Still, given Yunnan's proximity to regions like Malaysia, where Nipah first emerged, the stakes are Alison Peel, an ecologist unaffiliated with the study, noted that many henipavirus relatives 'appear not to be of any concern,' but stressed that laboratory testing is vital to assess their ability to infect human or livestock investigation serves as a wake‑up call as humans encroach on wildlife habitats, shared food and water sources become potential bridges for local health systems, educate communities on simple safety measures like covering fruit and boiling water, and expand microbial monitoring across bat organs, especially kidneys and urine.

Michael Cera Recalls Getting Schooled By Tom Cruise During Their First Meeting
may be one of Hollywood's most unassuming stars, but even he couldn't avoid a classic moment during their very first meeting. During an appearance on "The Louis Theroux Podcast," the "Arrested Development" alum revealed that he was scolded by the "Mission: Impossible" star while working together on a sketch for the MTV Movie Awards. The project featured Tom Cruise reprising his outrageous "Tropic Thunder" character, Les Grossman, in a series of pre-taped segments. "It was surreal to work with Tom Cruise," Cera said. "It was fascinating. Tom runs the set. I was there for like five minutes, but what I observed was, he was like the first AD on the set. He was such a leader." But things got off to an unexpected start when Michael Cera chatted with a writer during filming, something Cruise didn't take lightly. "They were in the middle of a take, and I was talking to the writer, just kind of mumbling. Tom Cruise looks at me, I've never met him before, and he goes, 'Is that Michael Cera talking during a f-cking take?'" Cera recalled. While the comment came across as intense, Cera insists Cruise was mostly joking… kind of. "I think he was joking. But it was also like, do shut up, you know?" he laughed. "I was like, 'Hey man, it wasn't me, it was the writer.' He said, 'I'm kidding, I'm kidding.'" Cera, ever the good sport, chalked it up to a surreal Hollywood moment with a superstar known for his commanding on-set presence. "It's surreal to meet Tom Cruise," he added. "He was very friendly." The actor's recollection came as part of a larger conversation about Scientology, though Cera was quick to clarify that he's had no personal exposure to the belief system. "I'm sure I will be treated to some after this discussion," he joked. Theroux reassured him, saying he hadn't said anything offensive. "Oh, I'm not picking a fight," Cera laughed. In the same interview, Michael Cera also dropped a bombshell of his own, he once walked away from a potential role in the "Harry Potter" spinoff franchise "Fantastic Beasts" out of fear that it would make him too famous. "I don't even know if I was offered, I think I just declined to engage with it because I think it would be like probably a six-year commitment or something," Cera admitted. "But also, I did sort of make a conscientious choice to limit my exposure a little bit, or just try and be a little more in control of it." He explained that the tone of the films especially influenced his decision. "I had a big fear of doing things that I would get too famous," he said, noting that children's movies especially posed that risk. The "Fantastic Beasts" films, prequels to the "Harry Potter" saga, follow magical creature expert Newt Scamander (Eddie Redmayne) as he's drawn into a battle against dark wizard Gellert Grindelwald. Though author J.K. Rowling initially envisioned five installments, the future of the franchise remains unclear. These days, however, Michael Cera is more open to the idea of joining a big franchise. "I think I've outgrown that particular feeling," he said. "But if a franchise came along now and seemed interesting, I don't think on the grounds of it being a franchise I would storm out of the office or anything." Following Michael Cera's retelling, fans took to social media to share their thoughts, and, unsurprisingly, opinions were mixed. "I've heard nothing but good things about Tom Cruise. Have a few friends that met him and they said he was so nice and kind. Sad that he's in a cult," one user wrote. Another wasn't quite so charitable toward Cera, "Cera is a triple Z-list no-talent actor at best." Meanwhile, some defended Cruise's reaction, noting the moment may have fit his character: "Yelling at Cera while playing the obnoxious Les Grossman sounds on point." Still, others aimed at Cruise's polarizing reputation, "Probably the single most dislikable person on the planet... and it's not even close," one commenter wrote. Another added, "Michael, you will find cult members are like that. It is the delusion they carry." Though the moment with Cruise was brief, it clearly left a lasting impression on the "Superbad" star, along with a pretty great Hollywood story to tell.
