News about Clement Attlee

The London Clinic has been the go-to for the royal family over many decades - and also counts Liz Taylor and John F Kennedy among its former patients. In January the King, 75, was admitted to the private clinic in Marylebone to undergo 'routine treatment' for an enlarged prostate. Doctors here, however, discovered an unspecified form of cancer after tests in February. Buckingham Palace confirmed it was not prostate cancer. But the royal is no stranger to the hospital. As the then-Prince of Wales, he opened the London Clinic's physiotherapy department in 1989.

The private hospital embroiled in a controversy over Kate Middleton's medical records offers its own concierge, meat from Smithfields market, and fish from Cornish boats, while counting Prince Philip, Liz Taylor, and John F Kennedy as former patients. Kate, 42, revealed in a video message to the world on Friday that she is being treated for cancer after undergoing abdominal surgery at The London Clinic on January 16 this year. Kate delivered a moving and hopeful message to fellow cancer sufferers by saying, 'Please do not lose faith or hope.' You are not alone.' She praised the public for her 'wonderful messages of support' and said that her husband William's presence on her side was a 'great source of peace and security.' The London Clinic has been the go-to-hospital for the royal family, influential politicians, and celebrities, and has therefore rely on the discretion of its employees to protect their privacy.

Following Kate's planned abdominal surgery in January, Bosses at the prestigious hospital have launched an urgent investigation after it was discovered that at least one staff member attempted to access personal information about her. The Princess is said to be aware of the allegations, but a Kensington Palace spokesperson said, "This is a matter for the London Clinic." Maria Caulfield, a nurse, said today that the legislation was "very straightforward" regarding the prohibition of accessing private medical records for no medical use.

The London Clinic has long been the go-to-hospital for the royal family, big-name politicians, and celebrities, and has therefore prided on the freedom of its workers to protect their personal information. However, Marylebone's illustrious reputation has now come into disrepute after it was revealed that employees attempted to access the Princess of Wales' private medical information.

After the Princess of Wales' personal information was discovered after she underwent planned abdominal surgery in January, Bosses of The London Clinic launched the urgent probe after it was discovered that at least one member of staff had attempted to access the Princess of Wales' personal information. Yesterday, mystery shrouded the massive security scandal, with the private hospital refusing to disclose whether it was first informed of the misconduct or if the employees involved had been suspended while the investigation continues. The Information Commissioner's Officer (ICO), a data monitoring body, told MailOnline that it had'received a breach report' and is reviewing the evidence provided. Meanwhile, insiders at the hospital, which is based in Marylebone, central London, were "utterly shocked and distraught" that a 'trusted colleague' had wrought such a 'breach of trust and ethics'.

The Scottish sojourn of Covid-19 Inquiry has provided us with so many low points that choosing just one is impossible. My pick is based on a conversation between Yousaf and Leitch, in which the future First Minister told the clinical advisor: 'I am winging it.' 'And it will be discovered sooner rather than later'

Since checking in at the London Clinic, where he visited his daughter-in-law Princess Kate on her ward before his own surgery, the King is expected to have surgery for enlarged prostate. Prince Kate on her ward. Over the years, the private clinic in Marylebone has been the go-to hospital for the royal family, as well as providing medical services to major-name politicians and celebrities. After being diagnosed with benign prostate disease last week, Princess of Wales has been a patient since Wednesday, while Charles is now undergoing corrective surgery. The King has been there before, as the prince of Wales at the time, opened the London Clinic's physiotherapy service in 1989.

Your decision on the death penalty in modern Britain is a measure of whether or not you are a good person. I'm also a bad person. Hundreds of right-thinking people, especially on the BBC, regard me as a monster. For those who believe there are certain violent offences that are best punished by death, I suspect there are some that should be punished by death. If (and only if) our courts could be reformed, with properly trained adults, unanimous verdicts, and judges who stopped obviously unfair trials, I would recommend the reinstatement of hanging here.

LEO MCKINSTRY: The NHS is ever more devolving as a result of record-breaking waiting lists and strained corporate relations. All the vigor of NHS chiefs should be focusing on these issues: the sole aim of this enormous group is to meet the British people's health needs. In contrast, many senior NHS figures are more preoccupied with making the service more accessible as an instrument of social engineering.

PETER HITCHENS: A primary school in London named after Sir Francis Drake has shortened its name to something so dull that I can't remember it. Sir Francis was described as a slave trader in the original BBC report of this decision, which later changed this to include more information about him. The school seems that this bad thing about the Elizabethan sailor has only recently been revealed, though I suspect it has been around for years. The move is stupid. Although I readily admit that Drake did some wrong stuff, I find it silly to pretend that he was not a great Englishman.

LEO MCKINSTRY: The calls for that figure, which is allegedly restoring their pay to 2008 levels in real terms and more than double the current rate of inflation, are being led by the British Medical Association (BMA). Some Mail readers may believe that the BMA is a mild-mannered, moderate body that acts decisively to protect doctors' interests. They would be incorrect.

There is certainly a connection, according to DOMINIC LAWSON. That came in a strange way after an England World Cup loss. No, not our loss to our historical rivals, the French: I'm speaking about Norway's 2-1 victory over England in a World Cup qualifier in Oslo in September 1981. At least in this region, no one had given Norway a chance, especially because it was largely made up of amateurs. They did win, but they did not win. At the end, the Norwegian commentator, Bjorge Lillelien (centre) in a voice cracking with emotion, yelled: 'We are the best in the world!We have beaten England!'England, birthplace of giants!Lord Nelson!Lord Beaverbrook!Sir Winston Churchill!Sir Anthony Eden!Clement Attlee!Henry Cooper!Lady Diana!Vi har slat dem alle sammen!Vi har slat dem alle sammen![We have beaten them all!We have beaten them all!]'Maggie Thatcher, can you hear me?Maggie Thatcher, your boys took a hell of a beating!Your boys took a hell of a beating!' It's been more than 40 years, Norway - a world with little more than five million inhabitants spread over a land mass half as wide as the United Kingdom - that has been producing giants in a variety of sports. The true giant of football, the 6ft 5in Erling Haaland, has been asked to elaborate on the reasons for his country's remarkable sporting triumphs this week, Wegger Christian Strommen, pictured right.

MAIL ON SUNDAY COMMENT: The Labour Party's education program is discreditable to the nation and highly critical. It's one of several good reasons for dissatisfied Tories to refuse any suggestion that they could loan their votes to Sir Keir Starmer as a retaliation of their own party's recent setbacks. Let's get to the hypocrisy. Labour's top command continues to please the party's class-war Left by making unnecessary comments about private schools. It's a cheap and fast way to keep the Corbynites quiet. However, despite being in office for a large portion of the postwar period, it has not significantly reduced private education. Far from it. The abolishment of state grammar schools from Labour's single education policy, was a big blow against fee-paying schools. These had been failing badly by comparison to state grammars.

EPHRAIM HARDCASTLE: When will Prince Andrew honour his pledge to become involved in charities helping victims of human trafficking and sexual abuse? He promised to do so as part of his £12 million settlement with Virginia Giuffre in February. In 2020, his last major charitable venture was appearing in tightly managed photo-op packing gift bags alongside ex-wife Sarah for hospice workers caught up in the pandemic.

As coal roads to power stations were cut off by major snowfalls, the cold months of 1947 brought weeks of fuel shortages. Britain is still suffering from hardship, just two years after the Second World War. Now, vivid photographs bring the crisis's severity back to life. The photographs from the Top Foto archive show bank clerks working by candlelight (right), long lines for coal (bottom left) who were desperately needed to keep houses warm, and even bicycles (top left) to continue running at a tent and tarpaulin factory in London's East End. The crisis prompted Clement Attlee's government to implement stringent power limitations, meaning there was no electricity for businesses in London, the Midlands, and the North-West, with householders in the areas having to keep the lights off for five hours a day. Although the corporation continued to conserve electricity, the fuel shortage compelled the BBC to suspend its television service and the Third Programme, the precursor to Radio 3. The photographs came amid warnings that power cuts could occur this winter as Britain tries to deal with an energy crisis imposed by Ukraine's civil war and subsequent rise in gas prices.

DOMINIC SANDBROOK: Of all the spectacular shows that have unfolded in our country's capital over the past 70 years, there has never been one like Queen Elizabeth II's funeral. It was also Britain's saddest day and our best, utterly stunning and yet poignant. And amid the pomp and glamour, it was difficult to forget that this was a farewell to an individual human being, a wife and mother with dreams and concerns that we may never know. And as I watched her children and grandchildren, I was reminded of many humbler funerals, much removed from the world's view. Of course, this was not just a private function. Such is the burden of monarchy. Even in death, there can be a great deal between the personal and the public for a queen.

DOMINIC SANDBROOK: George VI died in his sleep, according to DOMINIC SANDBROOK. Elizabeth was Queen at the age of just 25 years old. Even though she never spoke at the time she found out, it must have been a major shock. Not only did she lose her father, but she also assumed a role of awe-inspiring proportions in that moment. However, what shocked many people was her unflappable self-possession. She screamed over her superiors, "We've got to go back." 'I've destroyed everybody's vacation,' he says.' They returned to London in silence. Every now and then Elizabeth left her seat, and some of her officials thought she had been crying. The most influential men in the country were on the Tarmac, including Prime Minister Winston Churchill and Labour leader Clement Attlee. Churchill looked forward to a new Elizabethan Age that night, addressing the nation. 'The reigns of our Queens have been glorious,' he said sarcastically. "Under their suspicion, some of our finest times in history have unfolded.' Elizabeth II's reign was portrayed by his words at the start of his reign.

ANDREW MARR: On our television screens, she has been living 'over there,' at Buckingham Palace, Windsor, Balmoral. But she has also been living inside us, nestling in our imaginations. So the atmosphere is not only characterized by deep national mourning but also by profound unrest. For the first time, this is a deeply troubling time. It takes away one of the few places in our national life marked by stillness and hope. To that extent, her death is as much about us as it is about her.

DOMINIC LAWSON: What more could the next administration want than a policy which could reduce the nation's fuel bills, while simultaneously lifting our spirits? Thankfully, I have just such an idea, and the new Prime Minister, whoever she may be, has free of charge. Firstly, do not set the clocks back an hour when British Summer Time (BST) is set to come to an end on October 30. The US Senate passed a bill of this kind, making 'daylight-saving time' permanent, with no clock-changing twice a year. It was referred to as the Sunshine Protection Act at the time. Senator Patty Murray (far right), one of the country's most influential people, wants more sunshine and less depression; people in this world, from Seattle to Miami, need the Sunshine Protection Act.' When Tory MP Rebecca Harris (middle right) introduced a Bill in 2011 that promised a change to Central European Time, Alex Salmond (far left) proclaimed it, "plunge Scotland into morning darkness." David Cameron's (middle Left) government, worried about the rise of Scottish nationalism, refused to endorse Ms Harris's Bill.
