The Conservatives’ ‘independent’ investigation into the ‘Tatler Tory’ scandal was already unravelling last night as it emerged the law firm conducting the inquiry has worked for the party for years. Clifford Chance has been used repeatedly by Tory headquarters for legal advice – raising questions over its independence. Despite this, the firm has been brought in to find what senior officials – including chairman Lord Feldman – knew about allegations of bullying and blackmail by election aide Mark Clarke. It is estimated Clifford Chance – said to be the ‘go-to firm’ for the Tories – has received hundreds of thousands of pounds in fees from the party over that period.The law firm Clifford Chance has worked for the Conservatives for yearsQuestions have now been raised over the company's independenceBrought in to find what senior officials knew about allegations of bullying and blackmail by election aide Mark Clarke

Jackson Martinez has arrived in Spain following his £25million move to Atletico Madrid from Porto. The Colombia striker touched down in the Spanish capital on Tuesday to join up with his new team-mates, and was mobbed by reporters and fans desperate for a glimpse of their new star man. Martinez is following in the footsteps of now-Chelsea loanee Radamel Falcao, who swapped Porto for Atletico to much success in 2011. His countryman scored 52 league goals in 68 games at the club, but Martinez was quick to distance himself from comparisons when he arrived at the airport at around 3pm on Tuesday.Jackson Martinez has left Porto to join Atletico Madrid for £25millionThe Colombia striker touched down in the Spanish capital on TuesdayNow-Chelsea loanee Radamel Falcao made the same move in 2011Martinez has distanced himself from comparisons between him and Falcao

Washington (CNN) Rep. Adam Schiff kicked off a new push Thursday for Congress to finally vote on the war against ISIS. The California Democrat introduced a new version of his bill for a formal Authorization for Use of Military Force (AUMF) against ISIS, al-Qaeda and the Taliban. Schiff's bill would repeal the 2001 and 2002 war authorizations still used to fight terrorism across the globe with a measure that expires after three years and makes it easier for Congress to put a check on the Executive Branch's use of ground combat forces in the terror fight. "For far too long, Congress has abdicated its constitutional responsibility to authorize military action abroad, effectively ceding the war-making power to the Executive Branch," Schiff said in a statement announcing the new legislation.Rep.
