It was during the Christmas holidays 14 years ago, and George, who is now a first-year student and basketball standout at Eckerd College, was in kindergarten at a Tampa elementary school. He had gotten quite a few toys underneath the tree that year, but then he learned of a family with several children who wouldn’t have a Christmas. So George asked his parents if he could give his toys to the family. “It kind of went from there,” he says now.

Richard Walker, who quit the Tories last October after previously seeking to be a candidate, said he had reserved judgment on who to back at the next election but now believed that Labour and Starmer had a “credible programme” to improve the UK economy and people’s lives.

The Ritz's 1909 neoclassical building cuts an impressive figure on not-quite-the-top of ******* Hill, and the interior is just as opulent as the soaring columns and friezes on the exterior might suggest. The lobby has marble-tiled floors and columns, and furniture and rugs in tones of gray. The palette continues in the hotel bar, which has high ceilings, large windows, and red leather bar stools and banquettes.
