# AKMSU

The AKMSU (Russian: АКМСУ) is the name attributed to a compact carbine derived from the Soviet AKM, chambered in 7.62×39mm. The carbine was commonly thought to be a Soviet prototype weapon, but evidence suggests that the carbine was not actually of Soviet origin, and was instead a custom-made weapon misattributed as a Soviet weapon.

## Origins

The carbine that would later be attributed with the name AKMSU was first received by the British Ministry of Defense Pattern Room collection in June 1986. The Pattern Room closed in September 2005, and their entire collection was gifted to the Royal Armouries in Leeds, England, where the AKMSU resides to this day.
Following the Pattern Room's reception of the carbine, the carbine would be documented in several English and Russian publications, and the name AKMSU was later attached to the weapon. Alongside the name, the weapon was also attributed with history that describe it as a Soviet prototype weapon, made in either 1959 or 1975. Despite the description of these sources, no Russian armory documentation exists for the weapon, strongly suggesting that AKMSU was not a Soviet weapon.
The true origin of the AKMSU is uncertain, though it has been suspected to be a one-off "Khyber Pass Copy" from Pakistan's Khyber Pass region, an area known for diverse and unique weapon production in small shops.

## Design

The AKMSU is composed of a Chinese manufactured Type 56-1 receiver combined with a 1977 dated AKM trunnion. Its other custom parts include a muzzle brake, which is required for the correct functioning of the rifle and contains an expansion chamber to correctly cycle the rifle. The muzzle brake has many grooves machined into it for increased heat dispersion. It also has a custom hand guard.

# 1971 Barbadian general election

General elections were held in Barbados on 9 September 1971. Amendments to the electoral system saw the two-member constituencies previously used replaced by single-member first-past-the-post constituencies. This was also the first election in modern Barbadian history to be contested by only two political parties, not including two independent candidates.
The result was a victory for the Democratic Labour Party, which won 18 of the 24 seats. Despite achieving a larger increase in vote share than its opponent, the Barbados Labour Party lost two seats and its leader, Harold Bernard St. John, was defeated in his constituency of Christ Church South Central. Voter turnout was 81.6%, the highest in the country's history.

# David Cass (footballer)

David William Royce Cass (born 27 March 1962 in Forest Gate, London) is an English former footballer who played as a goalkeeper, most notably for Leyton Orient.
Whilst working as a carpenter and playing in non-league football with Billericay Town, Cass was signed by Orient as cover for first-choice keeper Peter Wells in March 1987. The following month, Wells broke his leg and Cass was called up to replace him. He played seven games for Orient before the end of the 1986–87 season and kept a clean sheet in the 3–0 victory over Cambridge United, though Orient narrowly missed out on the Fourth Division promotion play-offs.
On 9 May 1987 Cass played for Orient against Burnley, in a game which has gone down in Burnley folklore. Burnley needed to win that day to stay in the Football League, having been a founder member. The average home gate that season was 3,257, but that day 15,781 turned out at Turf Moor to see Burnley beat Leyton Orient 2–1 with goals from Neil Grewcock and Ian Britton. Such is the importance of this game to Burnley supporters that the goals are still shown before every home match.
In 1988, after an unsuccessful trial with Colchester United, Cass returned to non-league football with Billericay.

His appointment was described as a "doubling down on a course that is widely seen as centre-right in economic terms". Castex subsequently named his government on 6 July.
On 25 April 2022, following Macron's re-election as President, Castex agreed to resign as prime minister. Castex had previously pledged to do so if Macron was re-elected. Upon his resignation, Castex's government resigned as well, effective on 16 May.
