A leading oncologist has highlighted the potential dangers that the Princess of Wales could have to deal with if she were to undergo 'preventive' chemotherapy for cancer. As she begins anti-symptom therapy, Princess Catherine may have to deal with exhaustion, nausea, and vomiting, according to Dr. Matt Williams. The future Queen, who could also have problems with her body's production of enough red and white blood cells, could be susceptible to infections. Dr Williams, a consultant at The London Clinic, where Kate underwent major abdominal surgery in January, said she may have hair loss depending on the medications she's taking. It comes days after the mother-of-three stunned the world by announcing she had been diagnosed with cancer following the operation and that drugs would be used to prevent it from returning to the country.

Drax, the power station operator, has denied that it was involved in 'gaming' consumers out of hundreds of millions of pounds at the time of the cost of living crisis. The company is accused of manipulating the energy market by slashing production at one of its biomass plants - which is taxpayer-funded with a revenue cap - and shifting attention to other locations that saw higher returns during the energy crisis last year. According to Bloomberg's review, bill payers could have lost out on as much as £639 million. The company has piqued the attention of environmentalists, who claim that its claims of'renewable' energy are exaggerated and claim that it is one of the country's biggest carbon dioxide polluters.

According to Energy and Climate Intelligence Unit (ECIU), if gas prices remain high, the UK's food and drink industry could end up footing the mammoth extra bill for liquid CO2 if gas prices stay high. The industry was 'typically seeing 18pc rises in food and drink,' according to a trade body, with rising CO2 prices the'most significant' variable. Based on average pork chops prices, this would be equivalent to 70p on top of the average pint of beer, £1 on a kilogram of minced beef, and £1.25 on a kilogram of pork chops.

As rising gas prices raise fertiliser prices, Britons will face even higher food bills

www.dailymail.co.uk, September 2, 2022
Farmers' fertiliser costs are expected to rise by almost £2 billion over the next two years, triggering even higher food prices.

Fertilizer bills in the United Kingdom increased by around £760 million this year and last this year, owing to the higher cost of gas. However, if gas markets continue to spiral out of control, farmers could be expected to pay an additional £1.1 billion over the next two years.
