What’s happened to the aid sent to India?
Oh dear.  We were all shocked by the images from India of people in corridors and in car parks and no oxygen.  Many countries sent aid – ventilators, oxygen supplies and antiviral drugs.  Hospitals continue to say they cannot get supplies.  It seems that much of the aid is still in the airport hangars.   It has not been sent out to people and doctors and hospitals.  Indian Government said  – it is all being given out.  But hospitals say they have not had information from the Government.  Health workers want faster action from the Government.
70% of members of Republican Party believe US election was stolen
The situation in the USA is very serious.  Republican Congress woman Liz Cheney says Trump is wrong.  Biden won the election.  There is no fraud.  She says Trump is attacking the basic principles of the USA.  She says Trump was responsible for the attack on the Capitol on January 6th.  Other Republicans like Mitt Romney tried to give a speech.  The crowd booed him because he voted to impeach Trump.  Now senior members of the Republican Party try to remove people who do not support Trump.  They say Liz Cheney cannot do her job.  Trump says they will try to stop her being elected next time.  This is happening all across America where there are Congress people who do not support Trump.  If you want to be elected you have to agree that the election was stolen. Other countries are shocked at what is happening.
