内容摘要：The council has reached its maximum pay cut figure by assuming that a WRCO, who decides to stay as a bin worker despite the lower pay scale for loaders, would preserve his spinal point. That is more realistic, but still a pay cut of at least 18%.

The council has reached its maximum pay cut figure by assuming that a WRCO, who decides to stay as a bin worker despite the lower pay scale for loaders, would preserve his spinal point. That is more realistic, but still a pay cut of at least 18%.

We downloaded the data from the Doge website on 23 April and added up the total claimed savings from contracts, grants and leases.Our analysis found only about half of these itemised savings had a link to a document or other form of evidence.

US media has also highlighted some accounting errors, including Doge mistakenly claiming to have saved $8bn from cancelling an immigration contract which.Doge says it is working to upload all receipts in a "digestible and transparent manner" and that, as of 20 April, it has posted receipts "representing around 30% of all total savings". It also lists some receipts as being "unavailable for legal reasons".

BBC Verify examined the four largest savings listed on the Doge website which had receipts attached.The department claims these add up to $8.3bn, but after examining the evidence provided and speaking to people familiar with federal contracts, this figure appears to be overstated.

For three of the savings, Doge links to documents on the Federal Procurement Data System (FPDS). This is a database which records contracts given out by the US government.

The documents show a contract's start and end date, the maximum amount the government has agreed to spend, and how much of that has been spent.The EU says there will be no change before a new EU border security scheme comes into force in October, which will see biometric data including fingerprints collected from passengers coming from non-EU countries such as the UK.

It will mean manned desks where people will have to queue in order to enter some EU countries could still be a feature of travel beyond this year, even if e-gate usage becomes more widely available.In short, that will mean long queues at some destinations could continue during this holiday season and perhaps beyond.

Any decision about UK citizens using e-gates will not be a blanket one across the bloc. Instead, it will be up to individual countries to decide how they manage queues at their borders.In short, we just do not know yet whether there will be any change in time for this summer.
