INQToday: No power outage or Romualdez exit from QC jail – BJMP
By Saghir Hussain ·
Right then. Two power cuts, two very different worlds. In Manila, the BJMP is swearing blind the lights never flickered at the Quezon City jail — and no, Martin Romualdez hasn't done a runner either. Over here, ITV's morning slate went dark for real. This Morning, Lorraine, Loose Women — all pulled mid-flow because the studio lost juice. One minute you're watching a segment on air fryer lasagne, the next it's a test card and apologetic tweets.
Funny how infrastructure only makes headlines when it hits the sofa set. Up and down the UK, small firms lose hours — and money — every time the grid coughs. A bakery in Bradford, a garage in Glasgow, a café in Cardiff: no backup generator, no ITV press office spinning the narrative. Just cold ovens, silent card machines, and staff sent home unpaid.
Meanwhile, Trump's already threatening vetoes after the Democrats took Congress. The midterms spoke: Americans said enough. Whether their grid holds is another question.
And in Cardiff next month, Fury and Joshua finally throw down. Joe Joyce — who's sparred both — reckons AJ's chin is "suspect." Bold talk from a man who got stopped by Zhang twice.
But here's the thing: whether it's a Manila jail, a London studio, or a Welsh ring — the lights only matter when they go out. The rest of the time, we just assume someone's paying the bill.
Who's checking the fuse box in your street?
