Jeneroux had previously left the Conservative caucus, announcing his intention to resign from politics. He has now decided to stay on as an MP, but join the government caucus. In his statement, he credits PM Mark Carney's speech at Davos (previously) as a deciding factor. His decision comes in the wake of other CPC floor-crossings by MP Micheal Ma, and MP Chris d'Entremont (previously). But it's not a majority yet for the governing Liberals, as they have also recently faced resignation from former MP Chrystia Freeland, and the appointment of former-MP Bill Blair to a UK diplomatic post, as well as the recent nullification of the single-vote victory by Liberal MP Tatiana Auguste. Those three ridings will proceed to by-elections. In University-Rosedale (formerly held by Freeland), the Liberal candidate will be Danielle Martin, who some may remember from her testimony in the U.S senate. In Scarborough-Southwest (formerly held by Blair), the Liberal candidate will be former Ontario NDP deputy leader, Doly Begum. In Terrebonne, where Tatiana August remains the candidate, PM Mark Carney recently stopped by for a visit. A growing polling consensus "points to a significant shift to the Liberals, buoyed by Mark Carney's approval numbers".

Supreme court rules children in England who suffer serious injuries at birth can claim for future lost earnings
The NHS will have to spend more money settling lawsuits involving negligence during childbirth after a supreme court ruling that lawyers said puts right a “historic injustice”.
The court ruled on Wednesday that children in England who suffer catastrophic injuries while they are being born can claim damages for future earnings they would otherwise have had.

Long before half-time it was fully apparent that, if anything, Gurbanov had rather understated things. Had this been a boxing match it would surely have been stopped after a matter of minutes. Qarabag were utterly overwhelmed by the pace of their guests and that of Anthony Gordon in particular. Gordon scored four times, taking his tally in the Champions League this season to 10.
