it doesn't help. sarah cares for her mum, her brother and two children. she receives her carer�s allowance payments each week, but they don't go far. it goes straight on my car. last week, i had four appointments — between my mum and my brother, i had four medical appointments, and that's on top of taking my children out and doing things. so it doesn't go very far with fuel prices and distances and everything. campaigners say the carer�s allowance system is too confusing. neil has cared for his partner, david, since he was diagnosed with a rare degenerative eye condition. it is like a bereavement when you lose your eyesight. but, now, i've learned to cope the best i can, haven't i? yeah. yeah, you don't have a choice, really, do you? just back him up and everything and make sure he's 0k. yeah. last year, neil's carer�*s allowance was abruptly stopped when he started claiming his state pension. under the government's rules, carers aren't entitled to both payments at the same time. i was quite annoyed, actually,

to get support. not that — you can't put a value on caring for someone, but it doesn't pay the bills. it doesn't help, really. and it's a very cold, standard process which is followed. the letters are very sharp. and when you're feeling really low, it doesn't help at all. it doesn't help. sarah cares for her mum, her brother and two children. she receives her carer�s allowance payments each week, but they don't go far. it goes straight on my car. last week, i had four appointments — between my mum and my brother, i had four medical appointments, and that's on top of taking my children out and doing things. so it doesn't go very far with fuel prices and distances and everything. campaigners say the carer�s allowance system is too confusing. neil has cared for his partner, david, since he was diagnosed with a rare degenerative eye condition. it is like a bereavement when you lose your eyesight. but, now, i've learned to cope

and let itself get attacked again because the next time f it does happen again, an attack coming from iran, iran won't like the results. israel really has a tremendous offensive capability aircraft that can get into iran under radar, can fire at targets inside iran from great distances, outside of iran and so on, and so it's not surprising that it's now quiet. it doesn't mean it's over yet because we have to remember that iran's proxies, particularly hezbollah, sometimes runs its own course, but for the time being is an enormous sound of a sigh of relief in the middle east, chris. >> is that what you see as the biggest threat right now if one of iran's proxy forces in lebanon or syria strikes israel? >> yeah, that's a real problem because although we always say that these are proxies, and iran controls them, they don't control them. they arm them. they train them. they have a great deal of

READER LETTER | ATM bombings a problem township residents

It is an utter disgrace that a country like ours can’t detect crime that is planned or spiraling out of control around townships suburbs. Everyday when we wake up, an ATM at a filling station is bombed. Most of our filling stations have no ATMs now and that forces us the township dwellers to walk long distances to the malls to withdraw our cash.

Americas Choice 2024 Iowa Caucuses

voters, i will circle these areas right here. what do they have all in common? look at the populations. the places with the biggest circles have the greatest population, the smallest circles the lowest population. a lot of small circles there, for these evangelical areas where ron desantis was trying to run up the score, that means fewer caucus places at these precinct, a longer distance to travel over icy roads, that could be a problem for desantis getting his people those long distances to the polls. well, where do they have the most polling places? let me circle the areas right here with the biggest populations, let's figure out what they all have in common. i will take out these filters right here, and i want to show you the 2020 presidential election. donald trump won, joe biden won six counties, but they are largely in the major population centers with a lot of voters which means a lot of precinct, which means you don't have to

up. also, they're worried that their supporters are going to be complacent because they assume trump's going to win or some of their supporters. they bring a lot of first time people and so on. so i don't see that. i don't see an upset. in terms of who this disadvantages, i agree with scott. enthusiasm is a huge thing and he's got that. they also have some organization which they didn't have back in 2016. and this should help them, too. the one downside for trump i see is that a lot of his supporters in these rural areas where you have to travel in some cases long distances to get to these caucuses and there may be some people who just don't want to go out in 35 below. i note by the way that the president was very, had a recommendations for his voters. just put on that heavy coat and just go out there in that 35 below. i notice he's telling them that from florida. so, it's easier. >> not doing it, he's having a tele town hall or video virtual

out and those kinds of temperatures, right? when it comes to former president trump, he says, look, might voters will walk over plus to vote for me. when it comes to run desantis, you can see his enthusiasm is a little higher than haley's. the other factor that makes him more confident, even though he has slipped in the polling is the organization and iowa, ali. it has been really strong. he started his ground game back in june of last year. they built up a massive infrastructure. in terms of that field operation, the actual mechanism to get those voters, get into those precincts, get into the caucus goers to their locations, because it is a more complicated process, then in a normal primary. people have to travel further distances. it is an actual process. it is not as simple as going to the ballot box, trucking, and leaving. you go, listen to speeches, and you set out in the outset

caucus goers to make sure that they are able to go out and get out. and if you don't have the enthusiasm, you should at least have the operation. and nikki haley does not quite have that. she spent a lot of money on ad dollars here, but not necessarily on that field, in that ground game. so that might be a challenge for her, at the same time, given that she has gotten herself into second place. the concern for the former president though, while he has a ton of enthusiasm, a lot of his folks are in rural areas. which means that they might have to travel longer distances, and it because he has such a significant lead, they are a little bit worried that people might say, hey, he's got in the bag. you know, why do we need to go out there? maybe he needs to change his rhetoric on the campaign trail, saying, pretend we are some points behind. pretend we are running from behind, we show up, and send a big message. so who is this cold going to

much. jeff zeleny joins us from des moines right now. jeff, i mean obviously this is all going to come down to turnout and which candidate is doing the best job of that at this point. but you know, the weather -- i wonder if it's a wild card. you covered so many of these. what do you think? >> reporter: it is definitely a wild card. i mean, for all of the advertising, for all of the messages, the campaign stops, they're all so strategic, this is something that the campaigns have zero control over. that is not where presidential candidates like to be, so it is absolutely the biggest wild card. i've been talking to advisers in all of the campaigns, and to a person that's what they say. there is just an unknown -- this is just an unknown factor. some of the supporters of these candidates are older, and that is a challenge perhaps to get them to the polls, to the caucus sites monday night. some of them have to drive long distances, that is a challenge to get them to the caucuses on monday night. so for all the spinning going on about, oh, it may benefit the

supply and the framework, and that means the second point which means increased cost. it is also twofold. so first there is longer distances, that means more fuel cost to operate the ships, and then in addition the tightening of the shipping market, itself increases the -- customers need to compete for the available slots. that is where the cost to really start to spiral, and benefit the company's facing these -- especially the number of ships in me -- >> it is a great explainer of the effects. a lot of people might be surprised that you know, a group of rebels can and with a good measure of success, hold elements of the global economy hostage. how fragile does this make the system look? how fragile is it? >> yes, well, that is the big question. how long this will last and go on? so far i would say --
