Thomas de Maiziere told the BBC he supported the Schengen Agreement, but that it could be "in danger". He also called on Britain to accept more migrants. Germany expects to receive 800,000 asylum applications this year alone, far more than other EU states. "Of course Britain has a special role - it is not part of Schengen," Mr de Maiziere said. "But all EU countries must become more aware of their responsibilities." The Schengen area is made up of 26 European countries, mostly in the EU, which have abolished border controls and established common rules on asylum. But Mr de Maiziere said this has been threatened by countries failing to adhere to the principle that responsibility for processing claims lies with the country that played the biggest part in the applicant's entry to the EU. The principle is enshrined in the Dublin Regulation. Most of the migrants crossing the Mediterranean arrive in Greece and Italy first, where the authorities say they cannot cope with the numbers. Under Schengen, many migrants then head north, hoping for asylum elsewhere in the EU. "If nobody sticks to the law, then Schengen is in danger, that's why we urgently need European solutions," he said. His comments come amid what one EU official called "the worst refugee crisis since the Second World War". The border agency Frontex has said some 340,000 migrants arrived in the EU this year alone, many of whom travelled in dangerous, rickety boats to Italy and Greece. On Friday, Macedonian police fired tear gas at crowds of migrants at the Greek border, trying to enter the country to travel north. The 31-year-old opener is to make his fifth Championship appearance of the season in the game starting on Sunday. Cook has not played cricket since England completed their 2-0 Test series win over Sri Lanka on 13 June. Pace bowler Stuart Broad is also expected to return for Nottinghamshire against Lancashire at Trent Bridge. England's next Test, the first of a three-match series with Pakistan, starts on 14 July at Lord's. Cook was in fine form when he was first made available by the England and Wales Cricket Board for Essex's first four matches this season, hitting 523 runs in seven visits to the crease, including three centuries. His average of 130.75 remains the highest in the Championship. "After his contributions earlier in the season we are pleased to have him back in the fold," said Essex coach Chris Silverwood. "It is always a bonus to welcome Alastair back. We never put much pressure on him when he comes back. We are just grateful to have him around the squad. Hopefully we hope he can make an impact on his return." Essex's 'second against first' home meeting with Kent pitches the former Division Two leaders against the side who overtook them on Wednesday with a draw against Derbyshire. Kent remain unbeaten in the Championship this season, having now won twice and drawn six times since their total abandonment at Worcester in the opening week of the season. Essex will resume Championship action after an 11-day break on the back of their first defeat, against Leicestershire. Essex and Kent also meet in T20 Blast action at Chelmsford on Friday night (19:00 BST). It will be a second game in 24 hours for Kent, who are scheduled to host Sussex at Canterbury on Thursday night (18:30 BST).

In the 10 days leading up to their trip to Sixfields to face the League One side, Jose Mourinho's United have lost three matches, beaten by Manchester City, Feyenoord and Watford. "He'll be working hard to put things right," Page said of Mourinho. "There's no crisis, it's three defeats. That will be the message." Talking to BBC Radio Northampton, Page continued: "They're expected to win the game and if they don't they'll be criticised." The Cobblers, who are 11th in English football's third tier, set up the tie against United when they beat West Bromwich Albion 4-3 on penalties. "It's been a long time coming since the draw was made," Page said. "We've banned the players from talking about it just so we can focus on the league. "When we scored the winning penalty I thought the atmosphere was terrific and that's why you're in the game, you want to create more moments like that." Northampton Town have never won a competitive game against Manchester United, with their last match against the Red Devils - an FA Cup tie in 2004 - ending in a 3-0 defeat. "We know we're going to be in for a tough game, so it's about us focussing on what we can do and recreating what we did against Premier League opposition in West Brom," Page said. The hosts won Friday's first one-day international by two wickets and this result puts them 2-0 up in the three-match series. Paul Stirling (72) and Gary Wilson (65) were the top contributors as the Irish finished on 268-7. Zimbabwe won with nine balls to spare, Ervine hitting 101 from 174 balls while Sean Williams added 43. Ireland increased their run-rate from Thursday and with Kevin O'Brien chipping in with a half-century, they gave themselves a good chance of levelling the series. Sikandar Raza was the stand-out bowler for Zimbabwe, his three wickets coming at a cost of 49 runs. Zimbabwe reached the target with ease and Ervine followed up his 60 in the opener with another impressive display. It was a tough day for the Irish attack with all-rounder O'Brien picking up two wickets. Zimbabwe moved above Ireland in the ODI rankings into 10th place with Friday's victory and will remain above the tourists even if they lose Tuesday's final game. PC Christopher Guest, of West Midlands Police, inadvertently left expletives on Alex Faragher's phone after she was not at home to give a statement, a misconduct hearing heard. He was given a final written warning, while his colleague PC Cavan O'Connell was given a written warning. Ms Faragher said she was disappointed with the result. The hearing heard PC Guest, 36, could be heard on an answer message referring to Ms Faragher as a "bitch" and "slag". Along with PC O'Connell he arranged to meet her in January 2014 to take a statement over a reported incident of alleged domestic violence, only to discover she was not at home when they arrived. PC Guest told the panel his remarks, in a private conversation to PC O'Connell, were borne of "frustration". Both men, who worked in the Birmingham North police patch, are alleged to have breached the force's professional standards - PC Guest for making the comments and PC O'Connell for failing to pull him up for doing so. The panel ruled PC Guest's actions amounted to misconduct but fell short of the higher level of gross misconduct. He was handed a final written warning which will remain on his file for 18 months. PC O'Connell, 51, was given a written warning to stay on file for 12 months. West Midlands Police said the conduct of the two officers had been "dreadful". "We apologise to Alex Faragher for her distress and reassure her that they take this matter extremely seriously," they said. "We apologise for the poor service from the officers." Ms Faragher's solicitor said she is disappointed by the outcome and is reviewing what other legal options may be open to her. The domestic abuse allegation has since been discontinued.

The 37-year-old man, named locally as Czeslaw Dudek from Feltham, west London, was taking part in the Weybridge 10k run on Sunday. He collapsed in Walton Lane close to Weybridge Health Club, South East Coast Ambulance Service (Secamb) said. Mr Dudek was treated by race medical officials and ambulance paramedics about 400m from the finish line. He was taken to St Peter's Hospital, Chertsey, in a life-threatening condition, a Secamb spokesman said. He was pronounced dead on arrival, race organisers said. In an online tribute, his friend Ilona Bienkowska said: "He was a loving and caring dad and husband." She said he had left a wife and a seven-year-old daughter. The 35-year-old, who joined the Cobblers in 2016 and made 49 starts, has signed a one-year contract. "I'm excited by the project of trying to get the team promoted back into League One," said Taylor. "There seems to be already a togetherness within the group of players and they seem to be doing really well, so I'm really excited."

The Environment Agency said it found "abnormally high levels of pollution" in a stream leading to Broadsands Beach in Devon. Signs have been put up warning people that the sewage had entered the stream and was affecting bathing water. The agency and South West Water are investigating where the pollution has come from. More on this story and other news from Devon and Cornwall An Environment Agency spokeswoman said: "Torbay Council were made aware of a pollution incident affecting the quality of bathing water at Broadsands. "As a result they erected signage to warn and inform the public. Signage will remain until water quality has been restored." A spokesman from South West Water said a team was sent to investigate the cause of the problem, which they believe was "a misconnection between the sewer and the surface water networks". "We are assisting the EA with its investigations and we hope the beach will be re-opened this evening," the spokesman added.

They have created an algorithm that can take a sample of handwritten text, examine its qualities, and then write any text in the same style. There are already typefaces in word processing programs that produce text in a fairly uniform handwritten style. But what Tom Haines and his fellow UCL researchers have done is create software that they claim reproduces the messy details of any individual writer's hand. They call their system My Text In Your Handwriting and have tried it out on samples of handwritten text from historical figures such as Abraham Lincoln and the creator of Sherlock Holmes Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. While Conan Doyle never actually wrote "Elementary, my dear Watson..." the UCL team have now produced that sentence in his handwriting. I gave Tom Haines a uniquely difficult challenge. My handwriting has always been bad. A messy scrawl that even my family struggles to decipher. I supplied Tom with a sample written on paper with a ballpoint pen - other programs have relied on text written on a tablet, which gives a less accurate input. He began the process by using a program that marked up each letter and punctuation mark, analysing in some detail how I wrote. The fact that I sometimes dotted the letter i and in other cases did not was just one wrinkle. Then when the analysis was complete he fed it into the algorithm and typed the word "hello" into a box. Alongside, a barely legible "hello" appeared - but I had to admit it was a fair approximation of my scrawl. We then tried it out with a whole sentence - and again I have to admit the result was just as bad as I might have produced. Clever - but what practical uses does this handwriting algorithm have? One example is where banks send out sensitive documents or new credit cards and want to disguise the letters so that they look like handwritten personal letters. The researchers showed me three hand-addressed letters - one of them produced by the computer, two genuinely hand-written. I struggled to work out which was which - see if you can do any better. Another possible commercial use is in the personal messages that are inserted with flowers or presents sent by delivery firms - how much better to have a "genuine" handwritten "Happy Birthday" than something typed on a card. You might think that another potential use was by criminals attempting to forge your signature. But the researchers say that close examination with a microscope will still reveal what was written by a real human being and what was machine-generated. Image 2 was done by computer but the other two were written by a human. The service, which runs on Friday and Saturday nights, launched on 19 August last year with two lines running. It has run on five lines since December. The eight millionth journey on the Night Tube is expected to take place this weekend as the service marks its one-year anniversary. The mayor's office says 3,600 jobs are supported by the Night Tube. Sadiq Khan said it had been a "huge success" which had "significantly" boosted the night time economy. The most popular stations are Leicester Square, Oxford Circus, Brixton, Liverpool Street and Stratford. 226,641 Entries and exits on 17 December, the most popular night 153,250 Entries and exits a night on average 6,995 Average number of entries and exits per night of the busiest station, Leicester Square 65 Average number of entries and exits of the least popular station, Fairlop BBC London has analysed data from Transport for London (TfL) on how many people entered and exited each Tube station every half an hour between 19 August and 18 February. It shows that: The service cost £20.5m to run in the financial year of 2016-17. It was first proposed in November 2013 by former mayor Boris Johnson and was due to begin in September 2015. But it faced a difficult start as a series of strikes over pay delayed trains by nearly a year. Dates when the Night Tube opened on different lines: Mr Khan said: "No one could have predicted just how successful the Night Tube would be." Val Shawcross, deputy mayor for transport, said City Hall were now looking "at how we can move ahead" including expanding to other lines. The service is due to run on part of the Overground later this year, but Ms Shawcross suggested it could open on the Circle and District "when they've finished their upgrades in the 2020s". The Night Tube has had some complaints over increased night noise near Tube lines but Ms Shawcross said TfL was "actively working" to reduce complaints.

The club issued a statement confirming it was aware of an "incident" now being investigated by Kent Police. A man in his 20s, understood to be batsman Liam Livingstone, sustained a head injury at The Auction House bar in New Street, Ashford. Earlier in the day, Lancashire had qualified for the T20 Blast Finals Day following a tied match against Kent. The Lancashire club statement said: "LCCC is aware of an incident that took place on Saturday evening involving some of our players. "The matter is currently being investigated by the police and nobody from the club will be making any further comment at this stage." Kent Police received a report of a disturbance at The Auction House bar at 23:57 BST on Saturday. A force statement said: "It was reported that a man in his 20s had been assaulted and sustained a head injury. "Enquiries are ongoing to establish the circumstances of the incident."

Sir Ranulph has two more mountains to tackle, Mount Carstensz in Australasia and Mount Denali in North America, to complete his challenge. If he succeeds, he'll become the first person to cross the North and South Poles and climb the highest mountain on each of the world's seven continents. The Internet Party was a "movement for the freedom of the internet and technology, for privacy and political reform", the tycoon said. New Zealand goes to the polls in September. Mr Dotcom is fighting extradition to the US over charges of copyright infringement on a "massive scale". To enter parliament, the Internet Party must win an electoral seat or secure 5% of the vote. One suggestion was that he could align with an existing party, but his most likely ally earlier this week cast doubt on that plan. On its website, the party said that it would "give you faster, cheaper internet, create high-tech jobs, protect your privacy and safeguard our independence". It also promised to introduce "a New Zealand-sponsored digital currency that is safe, secure and encrypted". Mr Dotcom was arrested at his mansion near Auckland, New Zealand, in January 2012. As well as MegaUpload being shut down, Mr Dotcom's assets were frozen. But later scrutiny of the raid led to New Zealand Prime Minister John Key apologising to Mr Dotcom for what were described as "basic errors" by intelligence services in collecting information on behalf of the US. US authorities accuse him of earning more than $175m (£106m) by facilitating the distribution of pirated copies of movies, TV shows and other content. Kim Dotcom denies any wrongdoing. In January 2013, a year after the closure of MegaUpload, he set up Mega, which also allows users to host and share large files on the internet. Earlier this week, he announced plans to list his new file-sharing firm on the New Zealand stock market. He also caused controversy this week by admitting he owned a signed copy of Adolf Hitler's book Mein Kampf. But the internet entrepreneur said he was "totally against" the Nazis and pointed out he also owned objects that had belonged to Churchill and Stalin.

In the three months to April, prices fell by 0.2% - the first quarterly fall since November 2012. Over the past month alone, prices fell by 0.1%, the Halifax said. However, for the year to April, prices rose by 3.8%, the same figure as in March. It leaves the average cost of a house or flat at £219,649. Martin Ellis, Halifax housing economist, said one reason why prices were slowing was that property had become too expensive for many people. "Housing demand appears to have been curbed in recent months due to the deterioration in housing affordability caused by a sustained period of rapid house price growth during 2014-16," he said. Last week rival lender Nationwide said house prices were growing at 2.6% annually - their lowest rate for four years. The Bank of England has also said that the number of mortgages being approved has fallen for two months running. Samuel Tombs at Pantheon Macroeconomics said the Halifax figures were further evidence that the squeeze on real wages was offsetting the boost to house prices from falling mortgage rates. "House prices likely will continue to be underpinned by a shortage of supply, due to the high moving costs faced by existing homeowners. In addition, competition among lenders will continue to drive down mortgage rates this year, boosting the size of loans that some households can afford," he said. However, the Bank of England's loan-to-income ratio rule introduced in 2014 would prevent leverage rising significantly further, the economist added. Under the rule, banks and building societies cannot lend more than 15% of their mortgages to riskier borrowers. They, in turn, are defined as people borrowing more than 4.5 times their annual income. That view was echoed by Howard Archer at IHS Markit: "We suspect markedly weakening consumer fundamentals, likely mounting caution over making major spending decisions, and elevated house price to earnings ratios will weigh down further on housing market activity and house prices over the coming months." The former world champions are facing their worst ever season after failing to register a single point so far in 2017 after a series of engine failures. Brown said engine upgrades promised for Sunday's Canadian Grand Prix were not ready and the team is "near our limit". "Honda's working very hard but they seem a bit lost," he told Reuters. "We were eagerly awaiting this upgrade as were our drivers and it's a big disappointment that it's not coming. "It's not lack of effort, but they are struggling to get it to come together." Brown, who replaced Ron Dennis at the McLaren helm last year, added: "Our preference is to win the world championship with Honda. "But at some point you need to make a decision as to whether that's achievable. And we have serious concerns. "Missing upgrades, and upgrades not delivering to the level we were told they were going to, you can only take that so long. And we're near our limit. "We're not going to go into another year like this, in hope. "There's lots of things that go into the decision and we're entering that window now of 'which way do you go when you come to the fork in the road'." McLaren's renewed partnership with Honda in 2015 was billed as a return to the glory days of their collaboration in the late 1980s and early 1990s, when Alain Prost and Ayrton Senna dominated. Yet McLaren remain without a race win since 2012 and their best finish this season was when Fernando Alonso, who started seventh on the grid, came 12th in last month's Spanish Grand Prix. In March it was revealed McLaren had made an exploratory approach to Mercedes about engine supply in the wake of problems with Honda. And Brown again raised the prospect of McLaren paying for engines in future. "Do I think you can win with a customer engine? I think you can," he said.

UK house prices are "stagnating" and have actually fallen in the last three months, according to the Halifax. [NEXT_CONCEPT] McLaren have "serious concerns" over whether they can win the world championship with engine partner Honda, says executive director Zak Brown.

The animal took off from the visiting Circus Royale before being photographed on Bagot Rd, a six-lane thoroughfare. It was soon captured on the ninth green of a nearby golf course. Police said it was fortunate that no motorists had been hurt. But they also saw a funny side, writing on social media that "it wasn't even hump day". Superintendent Rob Burgoyne, from Northern Territory Police, said it caused "a bit of traffic mayhem". "From time to time we get animals wandering the roads, more often than not crocodiles rather than camels," he told the Australian Broadcasting Corp. "But certainly for Darwin it is a bit unusual." The camel was returned to the circus, which confirmed it was theirs but declined to comment further. In November, a cow was recaptured in Western Australia after escaping from a ship and being spotted roaming for 7km (four miles). The striker converted Danny Mullen's assist from inside the area to move the visitors to the top of the group on five points, two clear of St Mirren. In the group's other match, Airdrieonians ran out 3-1 winners over Stranraer, who were reduced to nine men. Cammy Russell, with two, and Andy Ryan scored for the home side. Stranraer were only one goal behind when goalkeeper Cameron Belford was sent off in the 60th minute after conceding a penalty which Ryan then converted. The visitors pulled one goal back through Scott Robertson in the 81st minute, but any hopes of a comeback were quashed six minutes later when David Barron was sent off after receiving his second yellow card. In Group G, two games went to penalties, with Albion Rovers drawing 1-1 with Stenhousemuir and Queen of the South drawing 0-0 with East Kilbride. Colin McMenamin broke the deadlock for Stenhousemuir, but Alan Trouten equalised after the break. Stenhousemuir took the bonus point after winning the penalty shoot-out 3-2. East Kilbride of the Lowland League also took the bonus point against Championship side Queen of the South after winning the penalty shoot-out 4-1, although Queen of the South remain top of the group on four points, one clear of Hamilton.

Technical director Brendan Venter and assistant coaches Declan Danaher and Paul Hodgson have also agreed new deals, having been appointed last July. "We're delighted the coaches have committed their long-term futures," chief executive Bob Casey said. The Exiles are due to host Notts County on the final day of the League Two season, with all matches in the division kicking off at 15:00 BST. The Dragons are set to host Cardiff Blues on the same day at 17:15 BST in their final Pro12 regular season game. The last Pro12 games start at the same time with play-off spots on the line. In a statement County said they "have been in dialogue with the Dragons and the Football League in an attempt to "identify a solution". Despite Newport RFC owning the ground and the Dragons attracting the biggest crowds, Newport County have primacy of tenancy when it comes to the fixture list, because of Football Association rules. The Exiles have a 10-year lease to remain at Rodney Parade until 2023 but there has not been a fixture clash of this nature since County moved to Rodney Parade in 2012. County have also announced the appointment of former Stevenage academy managing director Alex Tunbridge as club secretary and head of operations. Tunbridge worked for Stevenage FC for seven years.

The fire began around 23:00 local time (04:00 GMT) on Monday, and the cause of the fire is not yet known. Firefighters struggled to contain the blaze as -15C (5F) temperatures froze water lines, the CBC reported. The damaged multi-million dollar Classy Lane Stables is widely known in Ontario's horse-racing community. "This is devastating for our community. This is the highest loss that our community has faced by far," the area fire chief, Steven Goode, told the CBC. "Unfortunately, none of the horses could be saved." The Canadian broadcaster said that the 50 fire fighters from five departments fought the blaze, trucking water to the site since no hydrants were located in the remote area. It was first reported by a neighbour who spotted it and called emergency services. Puslinch is located about 38 miles (61km) southwest of Toronto. Mikaela Kellner told the Aftonbladet daily that she and a fellow officer pursued the man when they realised he had taken one of their mobile phones. She told the paper that she would have intervened "even if she were naked". A photo of the incident on Ms Kellner's Instagram page has attracted more than 9,000 likes in less than two days. The incident is said to have taken place in Stockholm's Ralambshov Park on Wednesday, where the off-duty policewoman was sunbathing with friends. The group was approached by a man who claimed to be selling publications on behalf of the homeless. Ms Kellner reportedly became suspicious when the man began lingering, setting some papers down over their blanket. As soon as he left, collecting his papers, one of her friends noticed that her phone was missing. "There was no time, so I ran after him, maybe 15 metres or so," Ms Kellner told Swedish news site, The Local. "One of my friends is also a police officer, so we got hold of him. He tried to get away so we held onto him harder." The stolen phone was swiftly recovered, and the man was arrested by a police patrol. "I've had a lot of positive comments both from friends and colleagues," she told The Local. "It happens all the time that valuables are taken like this... I mainly just wanted to raise awareness of how cunning these people are, almost like magicians." The firm - which sponsors British tennis star Andy Murray - forecast revenue for this year would be below analysts' estimates as well. It also said its finance chief was standing down for personal reasons. In the final three months of 2016, revenues rose 12% to $1.31bn, but that was the slowest growth for eight years. Profits fell to $104.9m from $105.6m a year earlier. Under Armour founder and chief executive Kevin Plank said on a call with investors the company needs to "become more fashionable". For 2017, the company expects revenues to rise by between 11% and 12% to nearly $5.4bn, but this was below market forecasts of more than $6bn. Under Armour shares sank 23% to $19.22 on the news, marking its biggest fall in nine years, and wiping out more than $3bn in market value.

The pilot and a passenger died after the aircraft came down in a field off Mains Lane, between Whitwell-on-the-Hill and Wellburn, officers said. Emergency services were called to the scene near Castle Howard in the Ryedale area at about 10:40 BST. The Air Accident Investigation Branch has launched an inquiry. Police are yet to confirm the victims' identities. Supt Mark Grange, from North Yorkshire Police, said the plane was still mostly intact when it landed more than 200m away from the nearest houses. "It looks like it came straight down," he said. "It looks like an aircraft, with two wings and a tail fin where it should be. "It's in a bad way and it's obviously come down heavily. It's sat on its underside so it has not flipped. "Whether they tried to land like that I don't know." Eyewitness Andrew Moutrie, 54, from Hovingham, said he was on his way to a football match when he came across the crash scene near the A64. "It looks like the aircraft attempted a crash landing. It looks like it came through the hedge towards the field," he said. Supt Grange said the site had been declared safe by the fire service after "worries about the amount of fuel" from the plane. "We're just preserving the scene until the air investigation branch attend. That's anticipated at about six this evening and then we'll be directed as to the next steps really around the recovery phase," he added. A cordon has been placed around the crash site and the public has been advised to avoid the area. A number of roads have also been closed. North Yorkshire Fire and Rescue Service said three crews were sent to the scene - two from Malton and another from York. A spokesman said up to 20 firefighters attended the crash site and a foam blanket had been placed around the aircraft in case it caught fire.

Northampton Borough Council sold Sekhemka for £15.76m last July. Arts Council England accreditation was withdrawn and access to further funding needed to expand the was museum denied. Council leader Mary Markham said it did not expect the sale to cause so much trouble, but the Museum Association said the sale had cut funding sources. The statue depicts a high official at the Pharaohs' court. Its sale raised £6.8m for the council with the remainder going to the Duke of Northampton whose family donated the statue. Cash was needed for a building to display more historic artefacts kept in store and provide education events, but a shortfall of £7.8m needs to be made up before plans can be completed. Mrs Markham said: "Sekhemka was not on display, no-one knew it was here but the sale would allow us to expand the museum. "We did not expect the issue of the sale to go global." Mrs Markham said despite losing access to Arts Council England funds, the council could apply to other sources of finance. Sharon Heal from the Museums Association said the sale had damaged the borough's reputation internationally and led to condemnation by the Egyptian government and its ambassador. "The council will not quickly or easily get over this," she said. Mrs Markham was adamant the decision was right and the council would "definitely do it again", even with the benefit of hindsight. A Department of Culture export bar on the statue, imposed after complaints by the Egyptian government, local protests and a national campaign, expires this month. The Save Sekhemka Action Group is now campaigning to find it a new home in a British public museum. Firefighters and police were called to the Claire House children's hospice store in Bromborough, Wirral, at about 03:40 GMT. A passer-by had seen smoke pouring from a broken window and dialled 999. No one was injured but the building was badly damaged in what Merseyside Police are treating as a deliberately-started fire. The force has launched an appeal for witnesses to come forward. Det Insp Paul Parry said: "The charity which is based there will inevitably be disrupted and that is a great shame when it does so much good in the local community. "Someone out there will know who has done this and I would urge them to do the right thing and come forward."

Media playback is not supported on this device "The environment would be entirely suitable for them to come out," Scudamore told BBC Newsnight. There have been no openly gay male footballers in England since former Norwich striker Justin Fashanu in 1990. The Daily Mirror has reported that two top-flight players are set to come out with support from their clubs. "It would be welcomed and I think there would be a tolerance to it. I think the time would be right to do that," Scudamore added. Media playback is not supported on this device Former England women's captain Casey Stoney was the first active footballer to come out in England since Fashanu in February 2014. Former Aston Villa midfielder Thomas Hitzlsperger publicly revealed his homosexuality in 2014, after his retirement, and Scudamore is "absolutely sure" there are gay players in England's top flight. "It would be very strange if there wasn't," the Premier League chief executive said. In other sports, high-profile athletes have openly spoken about their sexuality, with Olympic diver Tom Daley revealing in December 2013 he was in a relationship with a man. British race walker Tom Bosworth became the first Team GB athlete to come out as gay, while former British and Irish Lions captain Gareth Thomas, who played rugby for Wales in both codes, and rugby league player Keegan Hirst have also come out. Media playback is not supported on this device Examples in football are less common. In 1990, former England Under-21 international Fashanu was the first professional footballer in Britain to come out as gay. He retired from football in 1997 and took his own life a year later, aged 37. Swedish footballer Anton Hysen, son of former Liverpool defender Glenn Hysen, announced his sexuality in an interview with a Swedish football magazine in 2011. In February 2013, former United States and Leeds United winger Robbie Rogers said he was gay in a post on his website. Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger said last year a gay Premier League footballer may never be able to reveal his sexuality during his playing career because of the intense scrutiny he would be under. And retired basketball star John Amaechi, the first NBA player to come out, has called football "toxic" for gay people and minorities. The Met Office has issued yellow "be aware" warnings for further snow in north and west Scotland, Northern Ireland, Wales and south-west England on Friday.

Ms Suu Kyi's National League for Democracy (NLD) won a general election landslide victory in November and will take office at the end of March. But she is barred by the constitution from being the president. Clause 59F, widely seen as having been included to target her, means anyone who has foreign children cannot take the post. She has consistently said she will effectively lead the country anyway. The original date for the nominations had been 17 March, which was seen as giving time for the NLD to negotiate with the military. Aung San Suu Kyi may actually be stronger outside the presidency. Over several rounds of negotiation with the army it became clear that any deal would involve uncomfortable compromise. Little was said officially, but it was suggested that the army might trade suspending Clause 59F for more power. That was rumoured to include the positions of chief minister in sensitive states like Rakhine and Kachin and almost certainly included promises that the military's political clout and financial muscle be left untouched. It would have been a fudge and Ms Suu Kyi would have been accused of putting personal ambition over principle. Now she must choose someone else to be president, and her main criteria is likely to be loyalty. With an obedient puppet in place, she knows that all the president's decision-making power will still ultimately rest with her. These talks represented a chance for the Burmese army to show that it was moving with the times. It could have acknowledged that the people of Myanmar overwhelmingly voted in November for Ms Suu Kyi to lead. Instead the message is "the army still knows best" with the military insisting on following the constitution it drafted to the letter. With a huge majority in parliament and the ability to legislate as she wishes, Ms Suu Kyi may now decide she's not in the mood to compromise either. The new president will be elected by the upper and lower house from a list of three candidates put forward by MPs. The NLD dominates both houses after taking 80% of contested seats in the election. But the military, which ran Myanmar for decades, still has an automatic 25% of all seats. NLD official Win Htein told the BBC the party would now focus on trying to change the constitution from within. "Aung San Suu Kyi will still become president anyhow. It's only the matter of sooner or later," he said. The All Blacks, unbeaten at Eden Park since 1994, are favourites to beat a Lions side whose only series victory in New Zealand was in 1971.

The 31-year-old has recovered from a broken thumb to lead his country. He is expecting a physical battle between the two sets of forwards after the Lions' pack helped them to impressive wins over the Crusaders and New Zealand Maori during the run-up to the first Test. "Whoever dominates the set-piece ruck area will have a strong chance of winning the game," he said. Lions coach Warren Gatland sprung a surprise with his selection, opting for full-back Liam Williams and wing Elliot Daly, ahead of Leigh Halfpenny and George North respectively. Gatland has promised his side will be "courageous", adding "you have to score tries" to beat the All Blacks.

Twitch allows gaming fans to watch and interact with live broadcasts of others playing games. Google - which owns YouTube - is understood to have made a bid for Twitch last year, only to be beaten by Amazon's $970m (£620m) offer. The search giant said the service would launch later this summer. In a blog post, YouTube Gaming product manager Alan Joyce said: "On YouTube, gaming has spawned entirely new genres of videos, from let's plays, walkthroughs, and speedruns to cooking and music videos. Now, it's our turn to return the favour with something built just for gamers." The Let's Play trend has proven particularly popular. Channels that demonstrate how to build environments in "sandbox" game Minecraft command views into the hundreds of millions. Advertising revenue is shared between the broadcaster and YouTube. Like Twitch, YouTube also allows for a "tip jar" function for viewers to send money to the broadcaster. Mr Joyce said YouTube Gaming would provide an area on YouTube fenced off from the rest, so that "typing 'call' will show you [video game] 'Call of Duty' and not [pop song] 'Call Me Maybe'." YouTube Gaming will consist of 25,000 individual game portals which bring together all the activity around each title on a single page. Google will be hoping the new services will lure gamers away from rival Twitch which currently dominates the market for live online broadcasting. Around 12 billion hours of live gaming are watched on the site every month. Another competitor, Steam Broadcasting, caters to PC gamers but is less popular.

Areas such as the UK, Australia, Canada and Germany performed strongly over the quarter and increased like-for-like sales by 3.3%. McDonald's also raised sales in the US, which it said was suffering from "industry softness". China weighed on its "high-growth" markets, which include countries such as Russia, because of strong comparative sales and "protests related to events surrounding the South China Sea". However, it made gains and like-for-like sales in its high-growth markets rose 1.5%.

Neil Saunders, chief executive of Conlumino, the retail research and consultancy group, said one of the challenges McDonald's faced was widening its appeal. He said: "While the menu changes have drawn in more customers, they have not completely reinvigorated the brand with younger consumer segments, many of whom still shun the chain in favour of what they see as more premium and satisfying offerings from players like Shake Shack."

Speaking on Radio 1, the Band Aid 30 organiser thanked people for buying the single so far but says he has concerns about the amount of money being raised compared to the 1984 original. He said: "In 1984 a single was £3.50, today it's 99p...That worries me. "Even if you already have it, delete, download again." Band Aid 30 is the fourth version of the track, which is raising money for the fight against Ebola in west Africa, to reach number one following previous chart-toppers in 1984, 1989 and 2004. The track is the fastest-selling single of 2014 having shifted more than 312,000 copies in its first week. When the original version was released, it sold 3.7 million copies and raised £8m for famine relief. Geldof said: "We need to sell 300% more than we did then [in 1984] to even begin to make up the cash figure." A physical CD version costing £3.99 will be released on 8 December. Geldof said that was a "bright spark" in raising more money. Geldof said everybody who had bought the track was "absolutely amazing" and admitted he had been nervous about the reception the song would get. He explained: "Did I expect it? Yes I expected it but did I expect it in such vast, willing numbers? No I didn't. "You just can't assume anything... You don't know if the audience is interested in this. "Certainly they like the artists but are they interested in seeing the artist do just one or two tracks?" However, despite the track's success One Direction singer Liam Payne suggested Geldof "wasn't happy" with how some of the artists acted in the studio. Shortly before finding out the band's fourth album, Four, had reached number one he told Scott Mills on Radio 1: "We actually managed to get in the recording booth first so we were done in like an hour so we left. I missed all the drama. "Sir Bob did a little speech at the start. I say a little speech but it was the most epic thing I've ever heard in my life. "He said to our manager, 'There are so many people here and you guys are the least fussed'. And I was like 'Yes. we're not divas. That's so good'." "I'm not going to repeat the word he used to describe them but he wasn't happy with some people." In response to Liam's comments, Geldof said: "They [One Direction] were exceptional. "They're in vast demand all over the planet. One day off, what do they do? They come and do the Band Aid song - immense respect." He explained artists like Sam Smith, Bastille and Ed Sheeran made a real effort to make sure they could be part of the single and said: "On the day, they just hung out. Everybody was superb.

Anthony Browne, chief executive of the British Bankers' Association (BBA), said banks were spending £3bn a year upgrading systems. About 600,000 transactions were delayed as a result of the processing problem at the RBS group on Wednesday. The bank said that the backlog would be cleared by the end of Saturday. Payments of wages, tax credits and disability living allowance were among those that failed to be credited to accounts of customers at RBS, NatWest, Ulster Bank and private bank Coutts. The underlying problem was fixed on Wednesday morning but many of those affected are angry that it will take until the end of the week for all payments to go through. Mr Browne, of the BBA, told the BBC the incident was unacceptable, repeating RBS's admission on Wednesday. "The banks are already aware of this as an issue," Mr Browne said. "A lot of them have creaking IT systems. They are spending £3bn a year upgrading their IT systems - it is one of the biggest IT upgrades that Britain has ever seen." Most banks and building societies regularly suffer from online banking glitches, such as a problem at Nationwide earlier in the week, despite promoting the increased use of digital banking. During a presentation on banking technology on Thursday, Simon McNamara, of RBS, said it was not feasible for a system to be faultless for 100% of the time. "Technology will, on occasion, fail. If and when that occurs, we need to ensure we can mask the impact on customers and recover as quickly and effectively as possible," he said. "It is important that it is handled well and competently."

The US Securities Exchange Commission (SEC) said Iat Hong, 26, Bo Zheng, 30, and Hung Chin, 50, breached the websites of US law firms and accessed confidential information about mergers and acquisitions. They then used this information to profit on the stock market. The men, who have not been extradited, were fined in their absence. According to the SEC, which charged the men in December, they racked up almost $3m (£2.3m) in illegal profits by hacking two prominent New York law firms. This involved installing malware to access and download gigabytes of confidential emails, it said. The trio then bought shares in listed companies ahead of announcements about their merger plans - something that often causes stock to jump. In a judgement on 5 May, the Southern District of New York said the accused had accepted liability by failing to respond to the allegations. It said each should pay a the maximum penalty available, as well as returning their ill-gotten gains. Mr Hong must pay $1.8m, Mr Zheng, $1.9m, and Mr Chin, $4m. Any US assets they own will also be frozen. Mr Hong's mother, Sou Cheng Lai, has meanwhile been ordered to return more than $900,000 of illicit profits held on behalf of her son.

The trial gave 655 patients with melanoma the drug pembrolizumab, which stops cancers evading the immune system's assault. The data, released ahead of the world's biggest cancer conference, also showed 15% of patients had no sign of cancer. Experts said the findings were exciting and "really a step forward". The immune system is a powerful defence against infection. However, there are many "brakes" built in to stop it attacking our own tissues. Cancer - which is a corrupted version of healthy tissue - can take advantage of those brakes to evade assault. Pembrolizumab, one of a new class of immunotherapies, cuts the brake known as PD-1. Promising early data on the drug means it is already being used by doctors around the world. But the latest findings, to be presented at the American Society of Clinical Oncology's annual conference, suggest there is a long-term benefit. Dr Caroline Robert, a researcher at the Gustave Roussy Institute in France, said: "Before 2011 advanced melanoma had a median overall survival of less than one year and things have changed a lot. "What is really exciting is to see at three years the estimated survival rate is 40% and this is regardless of previous treatment." Even patients that had tried other immunotherapies appeared to benefit in the trial. However, patients did develop side effects including fatigue and a rash. Dr Daniel Hayes, the president-elect of the American Society of Clinical Oncology, told the BBC News website: "This is frankly a pretty exciting abstract. "This has been a bad disease, it's hard to treat, it's a sneaky disease and the mortality rates have been enormous so to see 40% of patients alive at three years is really a step forward. "We're even wondering if we could use the word cure here, but it's going to take longer follow up." Prof Peter Johnson, the chief clinician at Cancer Research UK, said: "It's fantastic news that the benefits of this drug can last for years rather than months for patients with melanoma who until recently have had limited treatment options. "Pembrolizumab, one of several new drugs that works by unveiling cancer cells to the immune system, has already been approved for use on the NHS for patients with melanoma." Follow James on Twitter.

The modified herpes virus is harmless to normal cells but when injected into tumours it replicates and releases substances to help fight the cancer. Trial results published in the Journal of Clinical Oncology show the therapy could lengthen survival by years - but only for some melanoma patients. The treatment is not yet licensed. Similar "immunotherapy" treatments for melanoma are already available in the US and in Europe, but researchers believe T-Vec would be a welcome addition to these. It would also be the first melanoma treatment that uses a virus. The latest study is the largest ever randomised trial of an anti-cancer virus and involved 436 patients from 64 centres in the US, the UK, Canada and South Africa who had inoperable malignant melanoma. UK trial leader Prof Kevin Harrington, from the Institute of Cancer Research, London, said: "There is increasing excitement over the use of viral treatments like T-Vec for cancer, because they can launch a two-pronged attack on tumours - both killing cancer cells directly and marshalling the immune system against them. "And because viral treatment can target cancer cells specifically, it tends to have fewer side effects than traditional chemotherapy or some of the other new immunotherapies." Dr Hayley Frend, science information manager at Cancer Research UK, said: "Previous studies have shown T-Vec could benefit some people with advanced skin cancer, but this is the first study to prove an increase in survival. "The next step will be to understand why only some patients respond to T-Vec, in order to help better identify which patients might benefit from it." Although it has not yet been licensed, doctors are excited about the very real prospect of a brand new type of treatment for advanced melanoma - and, in the future, possibly other cancers too. The idea of using viruses to enter and kill cancerous cells has been gathering scientific pace and kudos. This latest study in the Journal of Clinical Oncology is the largest ever randomised trial of an anti-cancer virus and provides tantalising evidence that the treatment concept could soon be moved into the clinic, after decades of work in the lab. Researchers now want to do more studies to identify which patients might benefit from the treatment and whether it should be used alongside other melanoma drugs that are already approved. Drug regulators will be watching closely and will soon make a final decision about T-Vec. Earlier this year an immunotherapy drug, pembrolizumab, became the first treatment "fast-tracked" for NHS patients in England with advanced melanoma, under a new government scheme. Drugs approved through the Early Access to Medicines scheme, launched in England in April 2014, have been scrutinised by regulators weighing up the risks and benefits. Melanoma is the sixth most common cancer in the UK and kills more than 2,000 people in Britain each year.

Council leader Stewart Cree said the budget would maintain services for the next year, but there could be some issues in future years. The Scottish government had made it plain any council that put up the council tax would lose more government funding than before. This made Moray's plans unrealistic, so council officials came up with other options. Many other councils across Scotland are continuing to examine possible cuts and savings options. All 32 local authorities accepted the Scottish government's funding deal. 31 July 2015 Last updated at 11:50 BST It's become the first city ever to host both a summer and winter games.

He warned Russia that all parties to the cessation of hostilities needed to stop attacks, including air strikes. If successful, he said, the truce could be a first step towards ending the chaos and violence in Syria. And he vowed to defeat the so-called Islamic State (IS), which he said was "not a caliphate but a crime ring". Is the truce worth the paper it's printed on? How Putin is getting his way in Syria Displaced Syrians struggle to survive Syria: Story of the conflict Mr Obama said the success of the cessation of hostilities would depend on whether parties including the Syrian government, Russia and their allies lived up to their commitments. Attacks needed to end and humanitarian aid had to be allowed through to desperate civilians, he said. "The coming days will be critical and the world will be watching," he said. Earlier, Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov said he hoped the US would respect the truce. Mr Obama said that factional rivalry among the rebels, as well as the campaign against IS, meant there would be no immediate end to violence. He also insisted that Syrian President Bashar al-Assad had to step down from power as part of any solution to Syria's civil war, but acknowledged there was "significant dispute" with Russia and its allies over this point. "It is clear that after years of barbarity against his people, many will not stop fighting until Assad is out of power," he said. Mr Obama also said progress was being made in the fight against IS, but added that the only way to inflict a lasting defeat on the group was to bring an end to the Syrian conflict. He said: "More people are realising that IS is not a caliphate, it's a crime ring. They are not winning over hearts and minds, they are under pressure," he said. "In the end the brutality of IS is no match for the yearning of millions who want to live in safety and dignity." Syria's main opposition umbrella group said that it was ready for a two-week truce to test the government's commitment to the plan. But the High Negotiations Committee expressed concern that Moscow and Damascus would continue targeting rebels allied to the al-Nusra Front, a jihadist group that, along with IS, will be excluded from the cessation of hostilities. The Kurdish Popular Protection Units (YPG), a militia that controls territory in northern Syria near the Turkish border, said on Thursday that it would respect the truce, but reserve the right to retaliate if attacked. The UN special envoy to Syria, Staffan de Mistura, meanwhile said he would be announcing the date for the next round of peace talks in Geneva on Friday. Scotia Gas Networks (SGN), has pumped out more than 2,000 litres of water from its pipes in Scone, but has yet to locate the source of the flood. SGN described the incident as a "challenging emergency". It said engineers from across Scotland had been drafted in to help with the operation. The engineers have been visiting properties in the village to switch off gas supplies at the meter. SGN said in a statement: "Customers can come and visit us at our incident van which is parked at the Scone Old Parish Church, Burnside. "Our senior engineering team is also continuing to investigate where water is getting into our network. "In the meantime, we are using specialist equipment and tankers to remove the water which has already made its way into our pipes. "This is a challenging emergency for everyone concerned, and we'd like to assure you that we are working very hard to resolve the situation while keeping you informed about what's happening."

The winners were guaranteed a spot in Division Two and the Ulster side were undone by three second-half goals from Quinlivan to send Tipp up. Antrim return to Division Four with Sean McCormack's point seven minutes into injury time securing a 0-16 to 1-13 draw for 13-man Longford. Longford's superior scoring difference means they stay in Division Three. The Saffrons needed a victory at Corrigan Park to remain in the division while avoiding defeat was enough for Longford to stay up. Antrim led 0-6 to 0-3 after 17 minutes with their points coming from CJ McGourty (2), Peter Healy, Brendan Bradley, Ruairi McCann and Declan Lynch. Longford fought back and slotted over the final three scores of the half to hold a 0-10 to 0-7 advantage at the interval. McGourty converted a penalty 15 minutes into the second half after Longford's Andrew Farrell was sent-off and Antrim were just a point behind. Lynch quickly levelled but Longford moved two points clear before they had a second player dismissed with Padraig McCormack red-carded. McGourty hit three points without reply to put Antrim ahead going into added time but Sean McCormack had the final say with his last-gasp equaliser. Armagh also endured late heartbreak as they narrowly missed out on promotion at the Athletic Grounds. Rory Grugan, Jamie Clarke, Aidan Forker, Niall Grimley and Andrew Murnin were on target as the hosts hit five unanswered points. Armagh enjoyed a 0-7 to 0-4 half-time lead but Longford were level two minutes into the second half thanks to Quinlivan's opening goal. Grugan split the posts twice to help the Orchard side restore their three-point advantage but it was cancelled out as the Tipp forward netted again. Armagh responded with points from Murnin, Oisin O'Neill (2) and Clarke to go four clear before the visitors launched their late comeback. The gap was halved when Quinlivan fired into the Orchard net in the first minute of stoppage time. Bellevue FC aims to give foreign nationals access to competitive sport, as well as the chance to make friends from other countries. The team features players from Poland, Romania, Albania, Portugal, Syria, Eritrea, Sudan, and some from Wales. As well as those studying or working in Wales, the team has also welcomed refugees who have fled their homes. They include 21-year-old Yacub Amin, from Syria, who said: "I left Syria and came to the UK because of the horrendous troubles in Syria. "It was really bad. Every day people were killed... we would be in their position if we hadn't left." He described the team as a "colourful family", adding: "Football is one of the things that brings people together." Another player, Tamam Lencho, who was tortured during conflict in Ethiopia, said he would have been killed if he had not fled the country. His journey to the UK took him through Sudan, Libya and Europe. He said the new club had a "very nice team", adding: "We play together and we share our problems as well." Co-founder Delwyn Derrick said Wrexham had a Portuguese-only team, a Kurdish team and other nationalities but none that brought different countries together. He added: "I find it hard to believe no-one has done it before." The team has been accepted into the North East Wales Football League and hopes to attract sponsors and funding.

The Public Accounts Committee says "it is not convinced" that the first phase of the £56bn rail line - linking London and Birmingham - will open at the end of 2026 as planned. It also urged the government to clarify the route and costs for the second phase, linking to Manchester and Leeds. A government spokesperson said the project was "on time and on budget". "We are keeping a tough grip on costs, and pressing ahead with plans for Phase Two - with further details due to be announced this autumn," the spokesperson for the Department for Transport added. HS2 - waiting for clarity on phase two HS2 boss quits to join Rolls-Royce New transport secretary backs HS2 In its report the committee acknowledged there had been "considerable progress" on HS2 since its first report on the project in 2013. However, committee chair Meg Hillier said both parliament and the public were "still in the dark about crucial details - not least when the railway will open, how much it is expected to cost and precisely where it will go". The biggest question hanging over HS2 is quite basic really. Where's it going to go? The route for phase one linking London to Birmingham has been nailed down, but the part that forks off to Manchester and Leeds is still up in the air. We were meant to get details in 2014. That slipped to 2015. Now it's "by the end of the year". The latest proposal, announced just a few months ago, cuts through hundreds of homes on a brand new Doncaster housing estate which isn't even finished yet. Local MP Ed Miliband (remember him?) is furious about it. Three years ago I interviewed a Cheshire farmer called John Keleher who wasn't sure if the line would cut through the middle of his land. He got back in touch recently saying, "obviously we know nothing more today than we did when you were with us nearly 30 months ago, as the decision for HS2 Phase 2b has been put off yet again". The government's under a lot of pressure to remove at least some of that uncertainty from ordinary people's lives. The committee said the cost estimates for the second phase for the rail link were "volatile", and £7bn higher than the agreed £28.5bn funding. It noted that £9bn of potential savings had been identified, but said it was unclear whether these could be made without "adversely affecting the expected benefits of the programme". HS2's recent recommendation of a new route through South Yorkshire, scrapping a proposed station in Meadowhall in favour of a stop in Sheffield city centre, was cited by the committee as an example of the "significant uncertainty that remains about plans for phase 2". "Lack of clarity over plans for HS2 in South Yorkshire highlights what is at stake for communities and local economies, and why government must explain its intentions and the basis for its decisions in a transparent manner," added Ms Hillier. HS2, the firm building the route, said in a statement that it was "making good progress in building confidence in our programme plan, and will continue to do so over the coming months". The report comes just days after HS2 announced that current boss Simon Kirby would leave the firm to take up a senior post at Rolls-Royce. Yates, 47, made over 200 appearances for Rovers as a player between 1988 and 1993, helping win promotion in 1990.

"I will always be grateful to Darrell for giving me a coaching role at this, my club," he said in a club statement.

It didn't take long for him to dive into his celebrations, popping into an ice bath with the Wimbledon trophy. Andy's mum Judy was also close by to join in with the triumph. Not all Murray's family were able to witness his big day first hand - his grandfather Roy missed the Wimbledon final to look after his dog. The morning after, twice Wimbledon champ Murray revealed on a Facebook Live that there had been some good celebrations and he now can't wait to go to Rio for the Olympics. Meanwhile, all the jubilation brought to mind some of Andy Murray's other high times on social media. The film's co-directors, Phil Lord and Christopher Miller, said they "couldn't be more excited to work with an artist with as much depth and range". Donald Glover, who won a Golden Globe on Sunday for his US TV show Atlanta, will play the young Lando Calrissian opposite Alden Ehrenreich's Han. Emilia Clarke will also appear in the film, scheduled for release in 2018. The British actress is best known for her role as Daenerys Targaryen in Game of Thrones and also appeared in 2015's Terminator: Genysys. Harrelson, best known for playing barman Woody in Cheers, was more recently seen as Haymitch Abernathy in the four Hunger Games films. Lord and Miller, who also directed The Lego Movie, said Harrelson's "ability to find both humour and pathos, often in the same role, [was] truly unique". The film-makers did not give any details about his role in the film - although they did reveal on the official Star Wars site that "he is also very good at ping pong".

Southend Hospital in Essex said the fire service had been called after the leak on the third floor of its Cardigan Wing just before midday. The hospital has been closed to patients and visitors as it "is currently not safe", the hospital said. Patients have been moved to other areas of the site while the leak is assessed by fire crews, the statement continued. More updates on this story and others in Essex Essex Fire and Rescue Service said two crews and a hazardous material team had been sent to the hospital. Work is ongoing to stop the leak and crews are monitoring carbon dioxide levels on all floors, the service said. Ambulances are being diverted to other hospitals in the region while the leak is dealt with. Constable Daniel Woodall, 35, and another officer were shot while serving an arrest warrant at a home in west Edmonton on Monday night. Woodall, an eight-year veteran of the police force who had been recruited from the Greater Manchester Police, died at the scene. Police said on Twitter that they are "no longer looking for a suspect". Woodall worked for the Edmonton Police force's hate crimes unit, and the arrest warrant he was serving was for criminal harassment. Another officer, Sgt Jason Harley, 38, was shot at the same time, but was protected by his bulletproof vest. He has since been released from hospital. Shortly after the shooting, a fire erupted at the home where the officers were serving the warrant. Prime Minister Stephen Harper said in a statement, "Constable Woodall's service to Edmonton and to Canada will be remembered and honoured. We grieve his loss today with Alberta and the rest of the country." The CBC reports that the last member of the Edmonton Police force to be killed while at work was in 1990. Edmonton Police Chief Rod Knecht is expected to offer more details at a news conference on Tuesday.

Francois Hollande had left the creature with a family in Timbuktu for safekeeping, after it was presented to him by local residents in February. But it was promptly slaughtered and used in a tagine. France sent troops to Mali in January to regain the north from a loose coalition of militant Islamist groups. During the young camel's handover ceremony, Mr Hollande had joked about using "it as much as I can as a means of transport" around the Parisian traffic jams. French officials had originally planned to transport the animal to a zoo in France, but because of the complex logistics it was decided instead to entrust the beast to a local family. The French defence minister informed the president of the camel's death during a recent cabinet meeting, Valeurs Actuelles magazine reported. "As soon as we heard of this, we quickly replaced it with a bigger and better-looking camel," Reuters quoted an unnamed Malian official as saying. "The new camel will be sent to Paris. We are ashamed of what happened to the camel. It was a present that did not deserve this fate." France currently has 4,000 troops in Mali, backed by thousands of Malian, Chadian and other African forces. France's defence ministry said this week it had started the withdrawal of its forces from Mali. A new body called the UK Trade Remedies Organisation will be set up to tackle allegations of unfair competition and investigate complaints. The online advert for a digital design lead said the organisation needs to be up and running by October 2018 - ahead of the UK's exit in March 2019. The UK can then enforce its own trade rules - a job currently done by the EU. "This is a challenging deadline and the Trade Remedies Implementation Team is being formed to ensure this is effectively delivered on time," read the advert. The organisation will be an "arm's length body" of the Department for International Trade. The group's implementation team - which the new recruit will join - will be responsible for hiring 130 staff and designing the organisation, including its IT, HR and finance structures. However, prospective candidates have been warned they will be working in a "changing and uncertain environment", with changes to policy possible as "thinking develops", as legislation moves through parliament, and because of the on-going negotiation with the EU. "This is a brand new function in the UK and delivering a fully functional and fit-for-purpose organisation by October 2018 is a huge challenge," read the advert. The job offers a salary of between £48,483 and £56,370.

Survival reached this view after speaking to its own sources, the group said. Reports emerged in August that illegal gold miners had killed up to 80 people. Venezuelan officials said a team sent to the area had found no bodies and no evidence of an attack. The attack was alleged to have happened in the remote Irotatheri community, close to the border with Brazil. Survival carried reports from Yanomami organisations which described how illegal gold miners had set fire to a communal house, and how witnesses said they had found burnt bodies. There were said to be three survivors. On Monday, Survival International said this account did not appear to be correct. "Having received its own testimony from confidential sources, Survival now believes there was no attack by miners on the Yanomami community of Irotatheri," said a statement from Stephen Corry, Survival International's director. Yanomami in the area, where many illegal gold miners are operating, had heard stories of a killing in July and this was reported, by some, as having happened in Irotatheri, Mr Corry said. "We currently do not known whether or not these stories were sparked by a violent incident, which is the most likely explanation, but tension remains high in the area." The Venezuelan government said teams sent to investigate the reports had found no evidence of an attack. Indigenous rights campaigners said the Venezuelan officials might have failed to find the community in question, which is based in a remote jungle location. Journalists were then taken to the area on Friday and Saturday, where Yanomami villagers said there had been no violence. "No-one's killed anyone," a Yanomami man said through a translator. "Here we are all fine." The Yanomami number an estimated 30,000, with their communities spanning the Venezuela-Brazil border area. They have been resisting encroachment by gold miners for decades, accusing them of destroying the rainforest and introducing diseases. In recent years the soaring price of gold on world markets has driven a surge in unlicensed gold-mining in many parts of the Amazon. Survival called on the Venezuelan authorities to do more to evict miners from Yanomami land. Military officials sent to the Irotatheri village said they had not found signs of mining activity in the area. "That was over a year ago and that was the decision to change," he told ITV's Good Morning Britain. "I look back at all the work I'd done - four days off that year and five the year before and I thought something's got to change." Martin left Saturday Kitchen in March last year. It is believed the man who died was a singer who was performing at the BBC Good Food Middle East Awards in 2015 in the UAE. Martin told Susanna Reid and Piers Morgan that after the shock of the man's death and his subsequent decision to change his work priorities, "for the first time in my life I'm content and happy". When asked about rumours he would join the new Great British Bake Off when it moves to Channel 4, Martin said: "I tried to put a bet on myself twice but they're not taking odds so I don't think that's going to happen." A number of guest hosts have presented Saturday Kitchen since Martin departed, including chefs John Torrode, Angela Hartnett and Lorraine Pascale. When Martin fronted the show, he asked celebrity guests for their "food heaven" and "food hell" - to have one of the dishes, voted for by viewers, cooked at the end of the programme. It also saw chefs compete against each other in the omelette challenge - creating a three-egg omelette in the fastest time.

The latest sequel to the influential game will go on general release after months of testing by those who backed it on Kickstarter. After launch, the game will face stiff competition from other space-based games currently in development. Many of those offer players very similar experiences to the fighting, trading and exploring in deep space seen in Elite. Plans to make the fourth instalment in the Elite series of games emerged in November 2012 when the project appeared on Kickstarter seeking to raise £1.25m to develop the game. Elite: Dangerous is being made by Cambridgeshire-based Frontier Developments, the game studio headed by David Braben who co-developed the original Elite game. He said he used Kickstarter because it would have been hard to get a publisher to back the idea. The December release date is later than originally planned and the game will initially only be playable on PCs. A Mac version is due to follow three months after the original release. Frontier is planning an event on 22 November at which some players will get a look at what the finished game will look like. On porting the game to consoles, Mr Braben told the BBC's Waseem Mirza: "It is important we make a great game first, but then we will look at other platforms." After the end of its Kickstarter campaign, Frontier continued to raise funds via its website and from gamers who have paid to take part in the testing phases of the game. This week Frontier announced that this fund-raising activity had helped it raise £7.5m and more than 140,000 people had taken part in its alpha and beta testing programme. "Elite has a fabulous heritage," said James Binns, managing director at gaming news site PCGamesN. "The loyalty that people have to it comes from playing it in the 80s." However, he said, it faced strong competition from another title, Star Citizen, that was also calling on a strong community to back it. Currently, Star Citizen has raised more than $60m (£38m) from its backers and had a "super engaged" community who were fans of its creator Chris Roberts' earlier Wing Commander games. Star Citizen was trying to be a bit different, said Mr Binns, as it was planning to let spaceship pilots get out of their craft and fight gun battles in space stations, on planets and inside ships themselves. Star Citizen is scheduled to be released in 2016 though some parts of it are available to backers already. Also a rival, said Mr Binns, a game called No Man's Sky made by Guildford-based Hello Games. "If you are looking for a game that was inspired by the original Elite then No Man's Sky is that game," said Mr Binns. It too will let players use a spaceship to explore a Universe that has been created using a technique called "procedural generation". Trailers for the game generated huge interest at the E3 convention and it is expected to be released in 2015. At first it will only be available on Sony's PlayStation 4 but a version for PCs is expected to follow. Each of the games was appealing to a slightly different audience, said Mr Binns, but there was no doubt that these pools of players did overlap. However, he said, Elite, Star Citizen and No Man's Sky could all face competition from a very well-established title. "Right now," he said, "the most exciting space game that has shipped is Eve Online." Mr Braben welcomed the presence of rivals, saying: "Competition is always a good thing for the players, as it gives choice, but also it keeps the competitors on their proverbial toes." Hampshire fire service said about 1,000 litres of milk came off the lorry on the A3024 at Bursledon. The service said it had sent its Hazard Area Response Team to the scene to prevent the milk from getting into nearby watercourses. The road has since reopened between the Windhover Roundabout and the B3033. Drains were blocked to contain the milk on the road and vacuum tankers were used to remove the milk from ditches to stop it getting into the watercourse. Mike O'Neill, from the Environment Agency said: "Milk has a big environmental impact because its so high in nutrients. "Bugs in the water use the oxygen to break those down and then there's no oxygen for the fish. "If the milk had got into the river, it would have been a really significant incident." The driver of the 44-tonne lorry is not believed to be injured.

His mother agreed for relatives of her ex-boyfriend to become her son's guardians when she gave birth aged 17. The man who the boy now looks on as his father is currently serving a lengthy prison sentence for drugs trafficking, the High Court heard. Two of the man's sons have also been jailed for drug dealing. The boy's mother, who is 23 and from Surrey, told the hearing she was worried about the lifestyles of her son's new family and wanted to have him living back with her. She began her legal fight in 2013 and has represented herself at a series of family court hearings because she cannot afford lawyers and is not eligible for legal aid. On Wednesday Mr Justice Jackson ordered a new investigation into the boy's circumstances. He said a family court judge must oversee a new trial and said "hard questions" had to be asked to find out whether the boy was being harmed. Speaking outside the court, the boy's mother said: "He's living with drug dealers. That just can't be right. "I agreed to him living with this family after he was born. I was 16 when I got pregnant and 17 when I gave birth. "I've grown up since then. I can look after him now and I want him back," she said. The Italian side stated that his birth certificate is "absolutely legitimate". Lazio added: "We reserve the right to take action against those responsible for the protection of the good name of the company and the footballer." The midfielder also issued a statement via the club's website denying he told an African website he was 41. He said: "I have read the alleged statements posted on the website senego.net in which it says I confessed my real age which was different to what was stated in my [official] documents. On his face there is sign of his previous life, which was not a happy life. That is it. Period. There is nothing else that makes you think he is 41 "They are false statements that have been attributed to me by people who do not know." Minala joined the Rome club last summer and recently played for them in the Viareggio Cup youth tournament. Italian journalist Max Evangelista, who reports on Lazio's youth team, said any suggestions the player was 41 were "unbelievable". He said Minala had scored five goals and made six assists this season for Lazio's youth team, who are the holders of the national title. "He is a very reactive player. You could never say he is 41," he told BBC World Service." When you are surrounded by players running like devils around you, in my opinion it is very tough to be 41. He runs, he is fast. It is unbelievable news, that is why Lazio felt the need to deny it. "He was in an orphanage for a couple of years in Cameroon, then he had to face the situation here by himself. It is a controversial story because the face of the player is not that of a 17-year-old guy. "On his face there is sign of his previous life, which was not a happy life. That is it. Period. There is nothing else that makes you think he is 41. "He is a kid with the head of a kid. He only wants to play football as he did on the road years ago barefoot. That is the only thing he is focused on and being a talent because he is a talent." Colin Gale, 39, from Worthing, is accused of murdering Mark Manning, 54, of Brighton Road, Lancing, who was last seen in April 2014.

Mr Bale failed to get re-elected as Labour leader - and thereby council leader - a week ago with the vote tied. But on Monday he was re-elected despite a challenge by councillor Lynda Thorne. Mr Bale told BBC Wales he was "happy with the result" and "excited about the city's future". Opposition councillors have previously called for him to resign and several people within his own party felt he should have stepped down. The Llanishen councillor survived a vote of no confidence in March after he struggled to pass his budget. Norbert Hofer has about 36% of the votes for the mostly ceremonial role - not enough to avoid a run-off in May. He is likely to face Alexander Van der Bellen, an independent contender backed by the Greens, who is polling 20%. For the first time since World War Two, the candidates from Austria's two main parties did not make it to the run-off. Rudolf Hundstorfer from the Social Democrats and the centre-right People's Party Andreas Khol are each thought to have taken about 11% of the vote. Both parties have governed Austria for decades - either alone or in coalition. This is a big shake-up in Austrian politics, the BBC's Bethany Bell in Vienna reports, as the country has had a president from the centre-left or centre-right since 1945. The clear victory of the far-right candidate reflects widespread discontent with the status quo, as well as concerns about immigration and the economy, our correspondent says.

Denis Donaldson was murdered in County Donegal in April 2006, months after being exposed as an agent who worked for the police and MI5 for 20 years. Patrick Gillespie, of Craigvar Street, Glasgow, is charged with committing the offence between 2006 and 2016. The accused, who also has an address in Donegal, was remanded in custody. Mr Donaldson, 55, was once a key figure in Sinn Féin's rise in Northern Ireland politics. He was shot dead at an isolated cottage near Glenties. Gurney, 29, took the first set of a high quality match 3-2 in legs with an average of 100 but lost the second to the world number two by the same score.

The 26-year-old joined the Cherries from non-league Woking in June 2010 and has been part of two promotions. He made 21 appearances in the top flight last season and was unfortunate to be ruled out of the Republic of Ireland's Euro 2016 squad with injury. Arter follows team-mates Adam Federici, Adam Smith and Steve Cook in signing new deals at Bournemouth. The 28-year-old woman called Farkhunda was accused of burning the Koran, although witnesses say she did not. Of the defendants who appeared in court in Kabul, 19 were police officers accused of failing in their duty to prevent the attack. The death led to widespread protests against the treatment of women. Farkhunda was beaten to death and her body then burned on 19 March. She had argued with a mullah, or religious teacher, about his practice of selling charms to women at a shrine. In the course of the argument she was accused of burning the Koran and a crowd overheard and attacked her. In confession statements read in court some of the accused admitted they were drawn in by the claims. An official investigator has said there is no evidence she burned the Koran. At the opening of the trial at Afghanistan's Primary Court, the judge called for the Kabul police chief and the head of an interior ministry investigating team to attend court on Sunday. The accused wore dark clothes given to them in prison. Two of them said they had been forced to sign confessions under duress. The proceedings were broadcast live on national television. The BBC's David Loyn in Kabul says that although Afghanistan is a country where women's lives are often fragile, the murder of Farkhunda has led to nationwide condemnation. The Northumbria Police officer has been found guilty of two charges of rape and three indecent assaults involving vulnerable women he met on duty. The 42-year-old, from Glasgow, was also convicted of six counts of misconduct in public office. He was cleared of nine counts of misconduct in public office, three of indecent assault and three of rape. The woman was involved in one of the misconduct in public office charges for which Mitchell was found guilty. She first came into contact with the officer in 2003 when a friend she was with was arrested for shoplifting. The woman was a drug addict and had non-prescribed diazepam which she said Mitchell had given back to her when she was released. They then exchanged numbers. She said he had rubbed her leg and tried to kiss her in an interview room at Newcastle's Pilgrim Street police station and asked if he could take her out before he drove her home. "I was shocked at first. But at the time I didn't really think about anything like that because at the time I was an addict and I was just going along with anything just to get the tablets back," she said. "And he also said he could get them for me off people who he took them off in the street and he would help us out giving us money and stuff." She said she had not had a sexual relationship with Mitchell but it had been difficult to keep him away. The woman met him about seven times, which she said she knew she should not have done but did so for the sake of getting drugs and money from him. The Pc's victim said he would call at night and ask her to go to a hotel with him, but she would only meet him during the day and started ignoring his calls. After a while he stopped giving her tablets. She said: "I think it was disgusting. He totally abused his authority and took advantage of vulnerable people." But she said she had not reported what was happening. "I just thought, who would believe someone who had a criminal record, someone who was on drugs over a police officer?" When she was contacted by detectives investigating an officer she said she immediately knew who it was Speaking after the verdict, she said: "I feel relieved and just glad and happy that he is going to get punished for what he has done. "I am happy for all the officers involved for all the hard work they have put into the case. I wouldn't have really been able to do it if it wasn't for them." She said she was now settling into a new home, was hoping to start a family and had put drugs behind her.

Residents were moved out of Westbury House near East Meon, Hampshire, following a Care Quality Commission (CQC) inspection. Inspectors said potential abuse had not been investigated, the home smelt of urine and staff were not vetted. Owner Dr Usha Naqvi called the CQC "extremely unfair and unreasonable". The March inspection, published in June, rated the home as inadequate and put it in special measures. It found that its 33 residents "were not protected from abuse, because safeguarding concerns were not appropriately reported or investigated". It added: "We found that staff had gaps in their employment history, references from friends and girlfriends, and one person had a criminal record which had not been risk assessed. "People were not protected by the prevention and control of infection. "Carpets were frayed and dirty and smelt of urine, floors were visibly soiled, walls and floor coverings indicated visible stains and discolouring with dirt and grime." However, it highlighted that "people and their relatives felt that staff were kind and compassionate and treated them with respect". Dr Naqvi said the home was usually "spotlessly clean" and criticised inspectors for visiting early in the day. He added: "We have very good staff, but they wanted us to have even more staff. What more do they want? Blood? "The residents were very sad to leave. It's a beautiful building in exquisite countryside and it was their home, the longest had been here for 30 years. "They didn't want to go, they were crying, they wanted pictures taken with me. I said there's nothing I can do about it. "Quality is important, not the quantity of the nursing staff."

The freak weather ripped the guttering and tiles from roofs in Park Bottom, Illogan, in Cornwall and left them in a nearby field on Tuesday night. Stunned residents described a "massive whirling noise" as windows were blown in and debris smashed into cars. Weather experts said it was "plausible" that a tornado was whipped up during a severe storm. The freak weather struck at abut 21:15 GMT, said John Budd, whose 6ft (1.8m) by 8ft (2.4m) wooden summerhouse was ripped from his garden. "All of a sudden there was a loud roaring noise and then a bang," he said. "I thought a plane had come down." Mr Budd's summerhouse roof had been blown four houses down the street and landed in Trev Harris's garden after striking his conservatory and roof. Roof slates were piled on the ground outside. A large trampoline had also been catapulted four houses down the street. Mr Harris said: "I said to my wife we have a shed-load of material in the garden and then I realised it was a shed." Neighbour Dave Crabtree said: "There was an almighty sound of the wind whistling. The window was vibrating and all the glass shattered into the living room. "It went everywhere. It missed my wife Lynne by an inch or two." BBC weatherman Kevin Thomas said: "It sounds like a tornado; the clues are the roaring sound and the localisation of the damage and the fact that weighty objects have been picked up." A lightning strike blasted a hole in the roof of a house in Hayle during the storm. Snow caused hazardous driving conditions in Cornwall, especially around Launceston, and the A3074 near Lelant was closed after high winds brought down trees and power cables. Thieves targeted the private property in High Street, Old Town, Hastings, on Monday between 16:00 and 18:00 GMT.

It is not known whether it had been bought as an investment or whether the owner had links to the Yates' family. But after floods wreaked havoc across Northern Ireland, the school has turned their field into County Fermanagh's newest canoe polo venue. Students took on their teachers in a game of canoe polo played in kayaks on Thursday. The pupils had the bragging rights after winning that match 4-2. They celebrated by dunking their teachers and capsizing their boats. Water levels on the pitch are currently two to three feet deep. Teacher Colin Lyons said there was "banter" between the staff and the students in the lead up to the game. "The pupils have benefited from six weeks practise, the staff have some experience and inexperience." Mr Lyons said that a number of safety precautions were in place for the match. "There's a good flush of water from Lough Erne through there, which means the water is clean and safe," he said. Mr Lyons said the only concerns around the match related to the cold. Flooding has affected how Devenish College students travel to school each day. "A lot of the pupils are from rural areas so it has been quite difficult to get in," Mr Lyons said. "Thankfully people have been able to find a way, people in Fermanagh have been quite resourceful in finding ways of getting people back into schools."

The event sees revellers chase a wheel of Double Gloucester down a steep hill and has seen some participants injured. Diana Smart, who makes the 7lb (3kg) cheese for the event at her Churcham farm, said police warned her about her responsibilities as organiser. She said: "It made me feel pretty angry... there's not a lot we can do," Mrs Smart, 86, who has made cheese for the event for 25 years, said police had warned her she could be regarded as responsible if anybody was injured. The cheese-rolling at Cooper's Hill dates back to at least the early 19th Century and this year's event is set to take place on Monday. Some 15,000 people turned up for the last official cheese-rolling event in 2009 but the hill, near Brockworth, is only suitable to host about 5,000 spectators. Unofficial races organised by local enthusiasts have been held during the late spring bank holiday each year since. A Gloucestershire Police spokesman said: "Advice has been given to all those who have participated in any planning of an unofficial cheese rolling event this coming bank holiday. "This included the individuals who provide the cheese. "We feel it is important that those who, by law, could be constituted as organisers of the event that they are aware of the responsibilities that come with it so that they can make an informed decision about their participation." Police said they had visited Mrs Smart to advise her that, in the absence of a recognised organiser, anyone who facilitates the event could be deemed to be an organiser by default. "In this case that person could then attract the legal liability issues that come with hosting the cheese-rolling," a spokesman said. 7 November 2015 Last updated at 10:10 GMT It's called an Eastern Coyote and weighs in at 25kg. It's twice the size of a traditional coyote, it's jaws are bigger and it's got stronger muscles to help it hunt and target different types of prey like rabbets and even deer. Researchers say that 10% of its genetic material is from a dog which means it survives better near people than wolves or coyotes, and can sometimes be seen in city environments. Dr Roland Kays of North Carolina State University says the animal is one of the great success stories of inter-species animal breeding. He says "the animal is so smart it even looks both ways before crossing the road". Speaking at the launch of the EFL's Every Player Counts initiative, Mills said the sport must resist becoming "set in its ways". More than £1m from the Wembley National Stadium Trust will be shared by 25 EFL clubs to increase opportunities and get 10,000 more disabled people involved. "Football is huge for everybody. It brings people together," said Mills. "People are still a bit scared of disability. Anyone who is a bit different, we fear. We've got to create safe environments and encourage people to get involved. It's hugely rewarding." The donation is the Wembley National Stadium Trust's largest single donation and its first England-wide grants programme. The Denmark international, 21, has played 161 games for Ajax and scored 32 goals since joining in 2008. "Everyone has followed the development of Spurs and it's something I want to be part of," said Eriksen. He became Spurs third signing in 24 hours, following Romanian defender Vlad Chiriches, 23, and Argentina striker Erik Lamela, 21 to White Hart Lane. Chiriches became the club's fifth summer purchase when he completed his £8.5m move from Steaua Bucharest. In a statement, Spurs said they were "delighted" with the deal for the player, capped 19 times by his country. Later in the day Lamela signed from Roma in a deal that the Italian Serie A side claimed to be worth £25.7m. It also includes up to £4.2m in bonus payments. The purchase of Eriksen is likely to take their summer spending to just under £105m in this transfer window and paves the way for Gareth Bale to join Real Madrid in a world-record move.

The body of 46-year-old Sharon Greenop was found by police in her home in the town on 10 November, after neighbours reportedly complained of a bad smell. Earlier this week, following a post-mortem examination, police said they were treating her death as "suspicious". The women were due to appear at Ayr Sheriff Court on Monday. They were detained in police custody. Most of the internet company's $33bn (£21.8bn) value is attributed to its shareholding in Alibaba. The decision is the opposite of the strategy announced in January to spin off its 15% stake in Alibaba. Yahoo's internet business will now be put into a new company to be listed on the stock market. Investors in Yahoo will get shares in the new company on a pro-rata basis. Yahoo bought 40% of Alibaba in 2005 for $1bn. The current holding is worth about $30bn. Chief executive Marissa Mayer said the new plan would help ensure that Yahoo's internet business was "accurately valued". She also said she was "taking further steps to tighten our focus and prioritise our investments to drive growth". More details about the move will be outlined in late January when Yahoo announces its fourth-quarter results. The plan to spin off the Alibaba stake hit a hurdle in September when US tax authorities denied a request from Yahoo to decide whether the deal would be tax-free. Yahoo shareholders could have ended up paying billions of dollars if the deal was ruled to be taxable. Analysts said Wednesday's announcement could make it easier for Yahoo to sell its internet business. They include websites, mobile apps and advertising services and could be worth between $3bn and $5bn. Roger Kay, analyst at Endpoint Technologies Associates, said Yahoo's internet business still had some value, given its huge global audience and expertise in online advertising. "I don't know if Marissa Mayer is the right person to lead to company out of the desert, but it can be done," he said. "I think after the spin-off, it will establish its own level of value." Yahoo chairman Maynard Webb denied there were plans to sell the internet businesses. "We believe that we are tremendously undervalued and we think the best path to unlocking that value is by separating the Alibaba assets from our operating businesses and also turning around the performance in our operating business," he said. Obtaining the necessary shareholder and regulatory approval meant the Alibaba transaction could take as long as a year to complete. After initially rising, shares in Yahoo fell 3.1% to $33.76 in afternoon trading in New York. Ms Mayer, 40, is expecting to give birth to twin girls this month, but plans to take only a short period of time off work. She returned to work just two weeks after giving birth to her first child in 2013. The famously blue-blooded creatures come to the tidal flats in southern and western Japan each year to lay eggs, and some normally die off. But this year conservationists say up to 10 crabs have died each day, eight times higher than normal, according to the Japanese newspaper Asahi Shimbun. Some think the die-off means the crabs will lay fewer eggs next year. The creatures are not true crabs, being most closely related to spiders and scorpions. They are classified as an endangered species in Japan, where their habitat is being destroyed. Experts cite the effects of global warming, a lack of places to lay eggs and disease as possible causes for the crabs' demise. Horseshoe crabs are one of the world's oldest creatures and are prized for their blue blood. Scientists have harvested the horseshoe's blue blood since the 1970s to test the sterility of medical equipment and intravenous drugs. The blood coagulates around tiny amounts of bacteria, immobilising the pathogens. One litre can sell for $15,000 (£11,360).

The ban was imposed in 2012 - the trust said it was a "sin" to allow women to touch the tombs of male saints. Women's activists campaigning to enter the shrine have described Monday's development as a "huge victory". "We are grateful the courts are standing by us in our fight against the patriarchal attitudes of men running religious shrines," Zakia Soman of the rights group Bharatiya Muslim Mahila Andolan (BMMA), which has challenged the ban on women entering the 15th Century shrine in the court, told the BBC. Although women were allowed into the compound and other parts of the Haji Ali mosque, the 2012 ban barred them from entering the inner sanctum which housed the tomb of a Sufi saint. Many Islamic mosques belonging to the Shia and Sunni sects also allow women inside, though many keep them in clearly demarcated areas. India women fight to enter temples In recent months, India has seen a number of campaigns to allow women into religious shrines that bar their entry. Activists - both Hindu and Muslim - have dragged patriarchal managements of shrines to courts all across India. On Monday, the Haji Ali shrine trust told the court that it would allow women to enter the shrine within a month. Ms Soman said the trust should not have challenged the high court order in the Supreme Court since "their stand to keep women out is not tenable - legally or morally". Most Sufi shrines across the country, and globally, allow women into the sanctum, and until the ban, they were allowed to touch the tomb of the saint at Haji Ali, Ms Soman says.

Brokers say that, in recent years, the best deals were only available to those offering a large deposit, but there were now signs of change. However, a new record rate five-year mortgage, newly on sale, still requires a 40% deposit. The HSBC mortgage, with a rate of 1.99%, also comes with a ??1,499 fee. Earlier this month, lenders told the Bank of England that demand for new mortgages had fallen for a third successive quarter. The bank's Credit Conditions Survey found that demand for mortgages for high-value property saw the biggest fall since the third quarter of 2008. Having been concentrated on this market, there are now signals that banks and building societies are casting their net a little wider. The survey found that lenders were showing a greater willingness to lend to borrowers who were only able to offer a deposit of less than 10% of the property's value so far this year. "The lenders are stepping up the fight to attract new borrowers and rates are still getting cheaper," said Aaron Strutt, of broker Trinity Financial. "First-time buyers with a 5% deposit can take a fixed rate just over 4% and if they can raise a 10% deposit the rates are as low as 2.69%. "A few years ago borrowers needed a 40% deposit to access a really good mortgage, but now rates are cheap for most new buyers. "HSBC's latest fixed rate really takes the mortgage price war into new territory and even cheaper deals may well filter through to the market." Nearly two-thirds of mortgage holders are sticking to a variable rate as the Bank of England's base rate is showing no signs of rising from its historic low of 0.5%. Charlotte Nelson, of financial information service Moneyfacts, said that 15 lenders had cut mortgage rates in a week - partly to try to tempt some variable rate customers back to fixed rates. "The competition to be the lowest in the mortgage market shows no signs of stopping and is great news for borrowers," she said. All this appears to be good news for first-time buyers struggling to afford a property. Yet, there are still significant hurdles for these, generally young, potential property owners. The most eye-catching deals - such as HSBC's home loan which is said to be the first five-year mortgage with a rate of under 2% - can still come with significant fees and deposit requirements. Ms Nelson said borrowers needed to consider the whole package to work out the cost of the loan. Borrowers also face strict affordability checks that test whether they are able to cope with an interest rate rise. Property website Rightmove also reported a rise in average asking prices, suggesting homes are becoming less affordable for first-time buyers. It said new sellers' asking prices increased by 1.6%, or ??4,381, in April compared with March to reach ??286,133 on average across England and Wales, surpassing a previous peak reached last June. The event in New York's Lincoln Centre Plaza will be attended by 200 guests, including GSA alumni and expatriates. They will be told of plans to restore the Grade A-listed art nouveau Mackintosh building that was badly damaged in the blaze on 23 May 2014. Ms Sturgeon is on a four-day visit to the US - her first as first minister. Earlier, the first minister appeared on one of American television's top chat shows. She took part in The Daily Show, hosted by Jon Stewart, and questioned her billing on the show's website as a "comedian". The GSA reception she will host aims to boost the profile of the Mackintosh appeal which hopes to raise £20m towards the eventual cost of restoration of the building and its contents. The New York event will also provide a platform for sharing details of the planned restoration project with existing and potential new supports. Patrons of the appeal include the American actor Brad Pitt as well as Scots actor and former GSA student Peter Capaldi. Director of Glasgow School of Art, Professor Tom Inns, told the BBC that the fundraiser is the first outside of Scotland. Speaking on BBC Radio Scotland's Newsdrive programme, he said: "We have always had great links into North America. A lot of our students are from the States and many of our students work in New York. "There is also huge interest in Mackintosh and the building and there has been a lot of interest in the last 12 months." Prof Inns said the school intends to update, as well as restore, its building following the devastating fire last year.

The Iron, under new manager Graham Alexander, dominated a scrappy first half as goalkeeper Adam Davies saved George Williams' low effort and Jim O'Brien twice shot wide. Conor Hourihane came close for Barnsley after the break but goalkeeper Luke Daniels tipped his effort over the bar. Josh Brownhill's strike in the final minutes then went wide for the Tykes. The draw keeps Barnsley in the final League One play-off position, just one point ahead of Bradford City. Scunthorpe United manager Graham Alexander told BBC Radio Humberside: Media playback is not supported on this device "We were the better team in the first half. We caused some problems and mixed the play up really well when we had possession. "I don't think some of the decisions helped. There were too many nothing 50/50 goings against us.

The fantasy adventure children's game show involves contestants being guided on a quest by "an immortal shape-shifting Scottish warrior". The revamped show, which is filming in the Cairngorms National Park between July and September, stars River City's Aisha Toussaint. She takes over from original Raven, James Mackenzie, who will be returning to feature during the "new quest to find an ultimate warrior". Toussaint, 21, said: "I'm absolutely thrilled to be the new Raven. "I was a massive fan of the original series and remember rushing home from school so I didn't miss an episode - it was always so exciting. "I used to dream of one day being a warrior contestant - I never for a second imagined that I'd one day be Raven. My 11-year-old self would be gobsmacked." "Pulling on the costume for the very first time was a very special moment." Cheryl Taylor, Controller, CBBC, said the overwhelming response was testament to Raven's popularity. She added: "Raven has always inspired a passionate and loyal following from CBBC fans and it's clear from the number of children keen to participate in the new series that its enduring and powerful appeal lives on. "The return of Raven has caused great excitement and we wait with anticipation to meet the new cast and immerse ourselves in this legendary battle." The series is expected to be aired later in the year.

It claimed several hundred fares, at just £69, were available on each of three new US routes. They were also offered for new transatlantic links with Cork, Shannon, Dublin and Belfast. The flights were advertised in other countries at even cheaper rates of 69 euros and $65. The rush for cheap seats led to 20,000 tickets being sold within three days. Prices now range from £160 to £280 one-way, with about £65 more to check in one piece of luggage. The marketing method, pioneered by Ryanair, has been criticised in the New York Times, which said the airline "offers a kind of bare-bones intercontinental travel that American travellers may be unused to". The introduction of Norwegian into small airports for transatlantic flights was met with lobbying resistance from other airlines and labour unions in the USA. A Norwegian airline spokesman said the ultra-low fare was only intended as "an introductory price", and that affordable tickets were still available. The Edinburgh routes will connect from 15 June with small, low-cost airports in Rhode Island, Connecticut and an airbase north of New York City. He replaces Brazilian coach Marcos Paqueta, who was sacked on Sunday. Mido will be working alongside Hazem Emam, who has been appointed as the club's football director. "We'll work towards the future, to rebuild the team, maintain discipline and set a new clear working system," Mido told Al Ahram newspaper. Emam is also a former Zamalek player and while they did not play together at club level, they played alongside each other for Egypt at the 2004 Africa Cup of Nations. The duo were in Qatar working as TV analysts when the decision was taken and are set to return on Monday and start work immediately as the team prepares for Tuesday's league match against Dakhlia. "Time is limited which makes it impossible to make any changes before tomorrow's game. I will depend on the current formation for the game against Dakhlia," he said. "Then I will focus on the determined players, who'll be selected to play based on their effort and determination to play and win." The former Libya coach Paqueta had only been in charge since November and oversaw just five games during which time they won just once, drew twice and lost twice. The results left Zamalek fifth in the Egyptian Premier League, one place and one point behind their great rivals Al Ahly. "I still believe that Zamalek is the strongest team this season, even more than Al Ahly, and is capable of defending its title," Mido insisted. "It's still too early to tell who will win this season's title - it is only in week 12 and both Ahly and Zamalek have three games in hand." Mido retired from playing in 2013 and took on his first coaching role in January 2014 when he took over at his former club Zamalek. During his first season in charge, Zamalek finished third in the league and secured a place in last year's Confederation Cup. He also won the Egypt Cup, making him the youngest Egyptian manager to win a major trophy. But at the end of July 2014 Mido was replaced by Hossam Hassan following some modest performances and results as well as differences with the club management. A year later, he took over at Ismaili but after just six months Mido once again started having differences with the club's board regarding the team's star player Hosni Abd Rabou. A row between the two on the touchline during a league match recently did not go down well with the club's fans and prompted Mido to step down from his post.

The Scotland international, 34, was pursued by Aberdeen this summer and offered a new one-year deal by Hull, where he played 14 games last season. However, a potential move to Pittodrie was derailed when the player flagged up hernia trouble. Maloney, who had two previous spells at Celtic, will be a development coach with the Scottish champions' under-20s. He made 215 appearances for Celtic, scoring 52 goals, winning five league titles, five Scottish Cups and three League Cups. Capped 47 times for Scotland, Maloney also featured for Aston Villa, Wigan and Chicago Fire. "I think he'll bring a lot," said Celtic first-team coach John Kennedy. "He's decided himself he wants to stop playing and move into the coaching side. "The manager and the club had a chat with him and decided they were happy to bring him on board. "He's a guy who brings a wealth of experience in terms of starting at the club as a young player and moving into the first team and being very successful. "He's a model professional, a player our first team players will look up to, never mind our young players. "When he does things he does things properly. He'll bring a lot to the table." Nathan Saunders, 23, from Tredegar, was allegedly found with four issues of the Rumiyah publication on his phone. He was arrested on 8 February and appeared at Westminster Magistrates' Court on Thursday. No pleas were entered and he was remanded in custody to appear at the Old Bailey on 23 February. Mr Saunders is charged with five counts of possessing a record of a kind likely to be useful to a person committing or preparing an act of terrorism. The material allegedly contained details of how to carry out terror attacks, including using a knife and driving a vehicle towards a large crowd of people, the court was told. A copy of The Anarchist Cookbook was also allegedly found on his phone, containing information on how to make explosive devices. The 27-year-old Algeria international spent one season at West Ham after joining the Premier League club on a three-year deal from La Liga side Valencia last year. Feghouli scored four goals in 27 appearances for the Hammers, including one against NK Domzale in the Europa League in West Ham's first match at the club's new London Stadium last July. After the deal was announced, Feghouli expressed his gratitude to West Ham supporters following his brief spell at the club. Paris-born Feghouli came through the ranks at French club Grenoble before joining Valencia. Having played for France at youth level, he chose to play for Algeria and scored their first World Cup goal in 28 years with a penalty against Belgium in 2014.

Mr Corbyn will address music fans in the Left Field area, the line-up for which is organised by singer and activist Billy Bragg. The festival, which has already sold out, runs from 22 to 26 June - coinciding with the in-out referendum on the UK's EU membership on 23 June. Labour's shadow chancellor, John McDonnell, has also been invited. Left Field, which mixes "pop and politics", said Mr Corbyn would be given a platform to discuss issues including social justice, the economy, gender and "and the possibilities for genuine change". Politicians have taken part in debates at Glastonbury before, such as the Greens' Caroline Lucas and Labour MP Tom Watson - but Mr Corbyn is the first leader of the opposition to do so. The headline acts at this year's festival includes Adele, Muse and Coldplay. Nottingham City Council makes £60 from each penalty charge notice (PCN) issued in Shakespeare Street in Nottingham - or £30 if the fee is paid early. The Institute of Highway Engineers said the signs could be confusing and the council was on "dodgy ground". But the council insisted its signs were up to standard. It said in a statement: "The Shakespeare Street bus gate was only introduced last year, is properly signed and we would expect to see the numbers drop as people get used to the changes." Although this part of the road is not used by any scheduled bus services, the council said it was used by buses taking students to Nottingham Trent University. The western end of Shakespeare Street is described as a "Pedestrian Zone" at both entrances but other signs warn there is "24 hr Bus Lane Enforcement". When asked what this was classed as, a council spokesperson said: "There's a bus gate on a section of Shakespeare Street which means only buses are allowed through. This therefore creates a pedestrian zone beyond." The council explained: •A bus lane generally runs alongside other traffic on a road allowing buses to gain priority over other traffic •A bus gate is an entry point across a road which means only buses are allowed to go any further •A pedestrian zone is an area where most vehicles are not allowed Richard Hayes, chief executive of the Institute of Highway Engineers, said Nottingham's signs could be confusing. He said the "box brownie" camera symbol on the approach to bus lanes should also have the words "bus lane cameras", like those used in other cities. "I do think we owe a duty of responsibility to any motorist, whether they be from the local area or from outside, to make sure we sign and line in a standard format," said Mr Hayes. "If that's not being done, then I think they are on very dodgy ground in terms of trying to enforce those restrictions." Last year Dr Stephen Sutcliffe from Liverpool won an appeal against a fine for using the lane, on the grounds signs were not clear. He said: "Since we were there they have put a temporary sign at one end of the bus lane in addition to the fixed signage that was there at the time, which suggests a tacit admission to the assertion the signage is inadequate." Nottingham City Council said: "There is absolutely no doubt the signs warning motorists about camera enforcement in Nottingham are up to standard, comply fully with Department for Transport guidelines, and that areas enforced by cameras in the city remain fully enforceable. "Motorists have a duty to observe all road signs and must comply with the restrictions - the vast majority do and are not issued with fines." It added it had challenged the ruling in Dr Sutcliffe's case and the matter was subject to judicial review.

It was Mr Flanagan's first visit to Northern Ireland since the formation of a Fine Gael minority government. Earlier, he met Deputy First Minister Martin McGuinness. Speaking after the meeting, Mr McGuinness said he had had a "very wide-ranging discussion" with Mr Flanagan. The Irish foreign minister also met the new Stormont speaker, Robin Newton. Mr Flanagan did not meet First Minister Arlene Foster as she was not in Belfast at the time of his visit. The Irish foreign minister also met the victims' commissioner, Judith Thompson, to discuss the outstanding difficulties concerning the legacy of the Troubles. During his visit, Mr Flanagan raised the Irish government's concerns about the referendum on the UK's membership of the EU. Mr Flanagan met representatives of the Ardoyne community in north Belfast, including the widow of Michael McGibbon, who was murdered in north Belfast in April. He also met Irish Football Association (IFA) officials ahead of what he called the "hugely positive participation" by both the Ireland and Northern Ireland teams in next month's Euro 2016 championships. The sites are three of 56 across the UK that will be sold as part of a long-term strategy to reduce costs and improve efficiency. The sites are in County Down - Abercorn Barracks, Ballykinler; Kinnegar Logistics Base, Holywood; and Volunteer Gliding School at Newtownards Airfield. The move was announced by Sir Michael Fallon, the defence secretary. Sir Michael said it would deliver better value for money and release enough land to build 55,000 homes. It is estimated that about £140m will be saved over the next decade by selling off the sites, which Sir Michael said would be reinvested in creating "areas of military expertise" in locations across the country. However, Strangford MP Jim Shannon described the moves as "backwards" and "illogical". The MoD previously said it is considering knocking down the 200 houses at Abercorn Barracks. "It would be a rather backwards step because I think they should be retaining the accommodation for use as social housing," he said. He added that it appeared that the Kinnegar base would move to Palace Barracks nearby and it was "unconfirmed" as to whether any jobs would be lost because of the move. He said the decision to sell two hangars at Newtownards Airfield was an "unbelievable step". "There is no potential for housing to be built at this site. The decision hasn't been thought out clearly, particularly as we recently got funding for the air cadets." Officers were called to the school in South Lanarkshire on 21 December. It is understood parents were notified about the incident before the end of term. South Lanarkshire Council said it was aware of the incident. Police said a decision had still to be made on whether to refer the matter to a social work-led team or the Scottish Children's Reporter Administrator. A spokeswoman for Police Scotland said: "An 11-year-old male pupil at a primary school in South Lanarkshire has been referred to the Youth Justice Co-ordinator (a police officer within the Restorative Justice Department) for alleged drugs offences. "A decision has still to be made as to disposal - whether a referral to the Early and Effective Intervention Co-ordinator - a multi-agency team with a social work lead - or a police report to the Scottish Children's Reporter Administrator."

The film, about an alliance between gay rights campaigners and pit workers during the 1984 strike, collected three awards in total. Andrew Scott and Imelda Staunton won the best supporting actor and actress prizes for their roles in the film. Brendan Gleeson was named best actor for Calvary and Gugu Mbatha-Raw won best actress for Belle. Accepting the top award of the night, Pride director Matthew Warchus said: "We're getting reports from up and down the country of audiences standing up and applauding. That doesn't really happen in British cinemas. "It's just extraordinary. It's a real tribute to the source material." Writer Stephen Beresford added that the film had one "simple, compelling message: unite". "When I was first told the story I was blown away by it - people ask 'is that really true?' "It took 20 years to convince anyone that a film about vegan lesbian activists was a sure-fire hit." Confession Northern Ireland thriller '71 went into the awards with nine nominations but only picked up one prize on the night - best director for Yann Demange. Frank Sidebottom-inspired film Frank won best screenplay for its writers Jon Ronson and Peter Straughan. It also picked up a second award for technical achievement, for its music. Sameena Jabeen Ahmed was named most promising newcomer for her role in thriller Catch Me Daddy. "Independent film allows subjects to be approached that are not massive crowd-pullers," Gleeson said, after winning his best actor trophy for Calvary. "Fantastic films are made in the independent circuit. It's whether people want to pay for something that's going to challenge them," he added. Iain Forsyth and Jane Pollard won best debut director for Nick Cave film 20,000 Days on Earth and drama The Goob won best achievement in production. The best documentary award went to sports film Next Goal Wins, while The Karman Line was named best short and the Raindance award went to fantasy drama Luna. Richard Linklater's Boyhood won best international film. The director accepted the award, giving a "a big shout-out to my friends on table one". He dedicated the award to If... and This Sporting Life director Lindsay Anderson. Although he lost out on winning the best actor prize, Benedict Cumberbatch was awarded the Variety award for helping "focus the international spotlight on the UK". The 38-year-old told the audience: "This award will inspire me to work harder, to make me feel like I deserve it - which won't be difficult, because I love my job." Oscar-winning actress Emma Thompson was presented with the Richard Harris award for outstanding contribution to British film. Joking about being given the award by a body honouring independent film, the actress - whose career has included a role in the blockbuster Harry Potter franchise - confessed: "I have taken small roles in big studio films for money, and I am sorry."

Andrew Butt, the partner of Rebecca's mother Louise, was arrested on Wednesday and charged with contempt. During a hearing at Bristol Crown Court Judge Stephen Wildblood said: "Mr Butt has told a string of lies." The case centred around Butt's car - a black Ford Focus - which Judge Wildblood said the defendant had driven Miss Minnock and Ethan to Cheltenham in. But the court heard the defendant had "continued to tell lies" after his arrest. "The only reason is that he knows precisely where they went and that he took them to Cheltenham in his motorcar that morning [27 May]," Judge Wildblood added. Butt is due back in court on Friday for sentencing. The court also heard a black Ford Focus was seen at Asda, where Rebecca took money out of a cash machine on the same day. At a previous hearing, Louise Minnock confirmed Butt owned a black Focus and stated that neither she nor her daughter were drivers. Since their disappearance, Miss Minnock and Ethan have been seen in Cheltenham and Birmingham where the police effort is now believed to be focused. Ethan has lived with his mother since his parents separated in February 2013. On 27 May, a district judge ruled Ethan should live with father Roger Williams after finding Miss Minnock had made false allegations and obstructed contact between the father and son. A child psychiatrist recommended Ethan should live with his father and have supervised contact with his mother - a view shared by a social worker and a guardian. At the hearing earlier, Judge Wildblood stressed: "I think it is important to put right, so the public can understand, the seriousness with which the court takes in approaching the task of ensuring that both parents, if at all possible, maintain an effective relationship with the child."

"Sardine" was trapped by volunteers in Newmarket who had seen his injuries. After treatment, also partly paid for by volunteers, he was taken to a rescue centre for care and eventual rehoming. However, centre owner Joanne Evans said Sardine "won her heart" and made himself so at home that she could not bear to be parted from him. About 15 people helped to rescue Sardine after Mick Smith, who runs a Newmarket lost and found pet page on Facebook, became aware of the cat's plight. It took them four days to lure the injured animal into a cage using tinned sardines as bait. He was treated by a vet for an abscess on a bite. His flesh had rotted down to his jawbone. At the time a veterinary nurse treating him said the cat "stank the surgery out, bless him". Instead of naming him Stinky they called him Sardine. Miss Evans took the cat to her rescue centre, Animal Craziness, in Ashley to care for him until he was well enough to be rehomed. However, she said she "fell in love" with Sardine. "He just fitted in so well here and gets on with almost all the other animals we have," Miss Evans said. She described the once very poorly cat as "like a big furry panther, now". Sardine sleeps on her bed but his presence is not welcomed by two of her other pets. "My Jack Russell terrier and big Labrador are a little scared by Sardine. When he's sitting in a doorway they won't cross his path," Miss Evans said. "But when I look at him now, and think this time last year he out there in the cold all alone, I just think how lucky I am to have him here with me now."

"With a firm focus towards Rio, we have liaised with athletes selected for the Olympics, and their coaches, before making a decision on selection. "As will be the case with selection for all track disciplines at the European Championships, we believe, for some athletes, running in Amsterdam will benefit their performance in Rio, whilst for others, as in Sonia's case, this competition was never part of the season plan."

A total of 325 employees lost their jobs when Tullis Russell Papermakers, based at Markinch in Fife, called in administrators last month. A further 149 positions were said to be at risk. More than 360 people attended a recruitment fair for Tullis workers on Wednesday. The fair was organised by Pace, which comprises bodies including the Scottish government, Fife Council and the UK Department of Work and Pensions. Joint administrators Blair Nimmo and Tony Friar of KPMG said that although interest had been expressed in the business, there remained a "number of challenges" to overcome. The administrators said they had re-established contact with parties including other paper manufacturers and paper merchants across the world who had earlier declined the opportunity to buy the business. They said they had also marketed it for sale to the wider investor community. A deadline has now been set for bids after they received a number of "notes of interest from parties worldwide, both for the business and assets as a going concern and for individual assets or brand names". KPMG said an information memorandum had now been issued to a small number of parties who have signed a Confidentiality Agreement. Mr Nimmo said: "We have been contacted by a number of parties that have expressed an interest in the business, which reflects the company's long history, strong reputation for high quality products and the high regard in which it was held by its customers and within the industry. "Nevertheless, there remain a number of challenges to overcome should a purchaser wish to acquire the business and assets and recommence paper manufacturing. "We have set an initial closing date for indicative offers for the business and assets for 12pm on Monday 18 May, after which we will be better able to assess the level of interest. In the meantime, we would like to thank the company's staff for their ongoing assistance." Bill Knight commissioned artists to paint the wall of his home in Northload Street, Glastonbury, to deter taggers. He was told in June to remove it after a planning inspector ruled its "scale, colours and style" was "harmful" to the area's heritage. But Mendip District Council has agreed it can stay after more then 3,500 people signed a petition. The work features some of the myths and legends the Somerset town is famous for. It was commissioned after Mr Knight got fed up with vandals painting graffiti on the side of his house. Councillor Tom Killen said a number of factors had been considered including the "significant drop in the levels of graffiti" on the wall after the mural was painted. "The petition was one of the largest the council had ever received," he said. "The location is a gateway site to Glastonbury town centre and the mural had been, and continues to be, appreciated by locals and tourists alike." The mural will be allowed to stay on the listed building for two years, after which time the situation will be reviewed. Mr Knight has been contacted for comment.

Fly-Tipping Action Wales (FTAW) said there were more than 36,000 incidents of illegal dumping of waste in Wales last year. The Welsh government is now consulting on bringing in new measures to tackle the crime. Every 15 minutes rubbish is fly-tipped or illegally dumped somewhere in Wales. FTAW programme manager Gary Evans said: "It equates to 100 incidents every day. That's far too many. "The Welsh taxpayer has to foot the bill to clear-up. That money could be far better spent on other services like education and health." Across the UK, it is estimated that waste crime costs £568m a year in clean-up costs and lost tax revenue. The cost to Welsh councils is approaching £2m a year. Figures obtained by BBC Radio Wales' Eye on Wales programme suggest the annual cost to the Welsh fire services of attending waste fires is around £5m. To further the fight, the Welsh government is consulting with the UK government on plans to follow Scotland and introduce fixed penalty notices. Currently cases have to be taken to court, which is expensive and time consuming for councils. Natural Resources Minister Carl Sargeant said: "We're very keen to pursue this illegal activity. "We're saying, 'if you fly-tip in Wales, we are coming looking for you' and we will actively seek to prosecute you. "We just need to ensure that the consultation comes back giving us the tools to deal with the job." Horne, 26, is in the women's track squad for Brazil and in contention to be part of the team pursuit line-up. She is one of five Welsh cyclists selected by Team GB and cannot wait to be part of the Olympic Games. "I'm completely obsessed by it," Horne told BBC Wales Sport. "Not long ago I had a folder of old bits and bobs of paper cuttings and I used to make scrapbooks of the Olympics when I was younger. "The Olympics is the pinnacle of any athletes' career and to say that I'm going to the Olympic Games has made everything worthwhile. It's a huge honour." Horne was a swimmer but had to give up at the age of 18 following shoulder surgery before switching to triathlon and later cycling while at Birmingham University. She won team pursuit bronze along with Elinor Barker, Joanna Rowsell Shand and Laura Trott at the Track Cycling World Championships in London in March. The women's team, having won six out of eight team pursuit world titles, salvaged a bronze medal following a disappointing qualifying performance. But Horne insists lessons have been learned in time for Rio. "It was a steep learning curve and emotions were high after that race," Horne added. "We were all absolutely gutted but to come back from that shows our strength of character. "We broke the British record and had two solid rides. "It's better to have learnt there than in the Olympic Games and messed up that qualifier." Horne's fellow Welsh rider Barker, 21, admits she is still not sure of her place in the final team that will ride in the pursuit. Katie Archibald has also been included in five member squad vying for a place in the four-strong team pursuit line-up. "Five of us are training for the spots and we've known for quite a long time it would be us," Barker said. "But the real selection will be on the day when four riders will be chosen to race." 15 January 2016 Last updated at 12:46 GMT Major Peake and his colleague, Tim Kopra, will try to repair a power unit on the outside of the station.

The party has also proposed an industry-wide levy, dubbed a "Twitter tax", to fund "preventative activity to counter internet harms". Labour said it had "pressed for tough new codes" in the past but the government had "categorically refused". The Liberal Democrats said more needed to be done "to find a real solution". The Conservatives said the levy, proposed in their election manifesto, would use the same model as that used in the gambling industry, where companies voluntarily contribute to the charity GambleAware to help pay for education, research, and treating gambling addiction. All social media and communications service providers would be given a set period to come up with plans to fund and promote efforts "to counter internet harms". If they failed to do so, the government would have the power to impose an industry-wide toll. The Conservatives say the exact details, including how long the industry will be given to comply and the size of the levy, will be consulted upon. A Labour spokesman said: "If the Tories are planning to levy a new tax on social media companies, they need to set out how it will work, who it will affect and what it will raise. "Labour has pushed for a code of practice about the responsibilities of social media companies to protect children and young people from abuse and bullying." The Conservatives have also pledged to introduce "a sanctions regime" that would give regulators "the ability to fine or prosecute those companies that fail in their legal duties, and to order the removal of content where it clearly breaches UK law". Social media platforms and internet service providers would have clearer responsibilities regarding the reporting and removal of harmful material, including bullying, inappropriate or illegal content, and would have to take down material. "It is certainly bold of the Conservatives to boast that they can protect people on the internet," Liberal Democrat home affairs spokesman Alistair Carmichael said. "Government and technology companies must do more to find a real solution to problematic content online." And Labour's digital economy spokeswoman Louise Haigh said: "The Home Office were crystal clear they did not want to legislate and that they believed the voluntary framework was sufficient. "The fact is that in government the Tories have been too afraid to stand up to the social media giants and keep the public safe from illegal and extremist content." The bid is a partnership between NewcastleGateshead Initiative, Newcastle City Council, Newcastle United Football Club and Newcastle Rugby Limited. If successful, United's St James' Park will stage the Champions Cup final and Newcastle Falcons' Kingston Park will host the Challenge Cup final. A final decision will be made in April 2017.

It said it would now look at a raft of "joined up transport improvements". Council leader Tim Warren said the eastern park-and-ride had been "challenging" but said ultimately it must put the safety of road user first. He said some of the other transport measures the authority would look at included: Two preferred sites for a park-and-ride to the east of Bath were chosen from a shortlist of eight. A greenbelt site on the west side of Mill Lane at Bathampton Meadows was eventually chosen over neighbouring council-owned land because the 800-car site would be less visible and have potential for a future rail link. Mr Warren added improving transport and tackling Bath's traffic problems "remain one of our highest priorities". "In light of the issues with site access, and taking into consideration all the various factors with these two sites, it is therefore recommended that the council should not proceed with either of these sites and we should instead commit all our efforts to pursuing the other traffic and transport measures we have set out." The proposed eastern park-and-ride would have joined the city's other three at Newbridge, Lansdown and Odd Down. Police were called after reports the £180,000 supercar was being driven too fast around Newport. Traffic officers did not catch the 25-year-old driver speeding in his bright green Lamborghini Huracan - which can go 0-60mph (97km/h) in 2.5 seconds. But police said he was driving in an "anti-social manner" and confiscated the Italian supercar. The driver was given a legal warning which meant the car, which has a top speed of 202mph (325km/h), was seized by police on Wednesday night but handed back the following day. A spokeswoman for Gwent Police said: "The driver was driving in an anti-social manner - speed not recorded but was excessively speeding in a built-up area." The man was warned his car could be seized again if he is caught for a second time. 17 September 2015 Last updated at 12:58 BST You programme where you want to go and this driverless pod will take you there.

Richard Pearson, 56, from Sunderland, passed off 14 drawings and pictures to a gallery in Northumberland, leaving it more than £50,000 out of pocket. He admitted fraud and forgery charges at Newcastle Crown Court and was jailed for three years and seven months. Cornish was known for his paintings of industrial life in the North East. The court was told Pearson was caught out after he made a "school boy error" when he used post-decimalisation prices on a fake receipt he claimed was from the 1960s. Prosecutor Mark Giuliani said: "What was instantly and readily apparent was rather than being in pounds, shillings and pence it was in decimal pounds and pence." The telephone number he used was also too long to be real. Four of the fakes were sold on to private collectors, who the gallery in Corbridge has since had to refund. Previously Pearson pleaded guilty to nine charges of fraud, two of forgery and two of using a false instrument with intent between December 2011 and February 2014. Jailing him, Judge Edward Bindloss said the fakes were "convincing" and had caused confidence in the art market to diminish. The family of Mr Cornish were present in court and in a pre-prepared statement said they hoped the conviction and the destruction of the fakes would restore confidence within the market. Paul Currer, defending, said Pearson wanted to apologise for his behaviour and would pay back the money through a fleet of cars he gained from an inheritance. Prosecutors said they would use the Proceeds of Crime Act to recover the money he owed. Cornish, who died in August 2014, was a former miner who learned his craft at an art course run for pitmen at Spennymoor Settlement in County Durham. His works have sold for five-figure sums. A drug for treating prostate cancer that has spread was found to save lives when offered earlier, a study found. The trial looked at abiraterone as an additional treatment in patients with prostate cancer who were about to start long-term hormone therapy. Abiraterone improved survival, according to results published in the New England Journal of Medicine. Prof Nicholas James, from the University of Birmingham, who led the research, said: "These are the most powerful results I've seen from a prostate cancer trial - it's a once-in-a-career feeling. "This is one of the biggest reductions in death I've seen in any clinical trial for adult cancers." Abiraterone, also known as Zytiga, is a hormone therapy. Unlike chemotherapy which kills the cancerous cells, it stops more testosterone from reaching the prostate gland to stifle the tumour's growth. The trial involved almost 2,000 patients. Half the men were treated with hormone therapy while the other half received hormone therapy and abiraterone. Of the 1,917 men in the trial, there were 184 deaths in the combination group compared with 262 in those given hormone therapy alone. Prof James added: "Abiraterone is already used to treat some men whose disease has spread but our results show many more could benefit." Each year around 46,500 men are diagnosed with prostate cancer in the UK, and around 11,000 men die from the disease. The results of the trial were presented at the 2017 ASCO Annual Meeting in Chicago and published in the New England Journal of Medicine on Saturday. Sir Harpal Kumar, Cancer Research UK's chief executive, said: "These results could transform the treatment of prostate cancer. Abiraterone can clearly help many more prostate cancer patients than was first thought." The Institute of Cancer Research also "strongly welcomed" the new findings. Prof Johann de Bono said they showed that when used at the start of treatment, abiraterone had "clear benefits for patients". In March, patients with prostate cancer in England were told they could have early access to abiraterone. The National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE) previously said the treatment was not cost-effective for the NHS until cancers were more advanced. Prof Paul Workman, chief executive of the Institute of Cancer Research, said he was keen to now see abiraterone reassessed by NICE for use in patients "as early as possible".

The world's most decorated Olympic swimmer completed 100m in open ocean off South Africa in 38.1 seconds to the shark's 36.1. Discovery Channel aired the "race". But what viewers actually saw was a montage of Phelps swimming alongside a computer-generated Great White. Before Sunday's broadcast, Discovery had the 28-time Olympic medallist, who is now retired, and the shark swim the course separately. Computer-generated footage of a shark was then superimposed over the swimmer to look like they were racing alongside each other. Some social media users loved the "race" idea, but many said that they felt "robbed" by the simulation. Phelps himself tweeted that he was ready for a "rematch"... but in warmer waters. Although the US athlete represents the peak of human athletic prowess, he can only swim at a top speed of 5-6mph (8-10km/h) without a monofin, while a Great White is capable of doing at least 25mph in short bursts. But humans have long pitted themselves against dangerous animals, often ones they know are much faster. They have done this for money; to draw attention to a cause; to create a spectacle, and perhaps also out of an inflated sense of what humans are capable of. Here are four other instances when man has raced beast. Bryan Habana, one of the fastest players in international rugby, decided to take on the world's fastest land animal in 2007 as part of an event sponsored by a conservation group. Habana is quick, but not Usain Bolt quick - running the 100m in 10.4 seconds at his best (compared with Bolt's 9.58 world record). Still, the then 23-year-old, keen to raise awareness about the decline of the cheetah, fancied his chances. The cheetah was tempted with a dangling leg of lamb which it chased during the race, while Habana, who was given a significant head start, gave it all he had. The end was close but the cheetah just got over the line first. Habana asked for a re-run and was soundly beaten. Filippo Magnini, a former world champion in the 100m freestyle, took on two dolphins in a pool near Rome in 2011. Given the animals' clear advantage, the Italian only had to swim one length of the pool, while they had to swim two. But that didn't make a difference and the man nicknamed "Superpippo" was pipped at the post. He said later that he fell "a bit in love" with Leah, one of the dolphins. The black US track and field athlete won a string of victories at the 1936 Berlin Olympics in front of Adolf Hitler, who had been hoping for a games that would demonstrate the Aryan superiority he believed existed. Owens later struggled financially back home in a country where racism remained rife and his sport was not professional. To make money, he competed against racehorses in front of dazzled crowds. He is said to have had the starting gun go off close to the horse, stunning it and allowing him to take a strong lead (he also had a head start). Though this strategy worked most of the time, he didn't always win. Later, more opportunities became available to Jesse Owens and, among other roles, he served as Ambassador of Sports under President Eisenhower. NFL wide receiver Dennis Northcutt easily beat an ostrich named Thelma in 2009 for a TV show called Sport Science. But in that initial race, a fence separated the pair and it was obvious the animal wasn't giving it her best. In a second race, this time inside the ostrich's enclosure, Dennis was soundly beaten, as the ostrich leapt away and he was left chasing it through the dust.

Media playback is not supported on this device Wright lost both her legs in the 7/7 bombings in 2005, but fought back to compete in the Paralympics. Since the terror attack, the 40-year-old Londoner, who played sitting volleyball for Team GB, has had a baby, got married and learned to fly a plane. "I count myself lucky that I have done the journey," she says. The award, presented at Sports Personality of the Year in memory of the BBC presenter who died in 1999 at the age of 43 after suffering from cancer, is given for outstanding achievement in the face of adversity. Of the many stories around the Paralympics that could be described as inspirational, Wright's truly fits the bill. She lost 80% of the blood in her body, was in a coma for 10 days and had surgery over a 10-month period while learning to walk again with prosthetic legs, which she removes for volleyball. Wright was sitting just feet away from a bomber on the London Underground at Aldgate when his device detonated. "It was a normal day. I was just a little bit late and unfortunately I chose the carriage the bomb was on," she says. "It's quite a miracle I'm here as I was only three feet away from him and 52 people there that day didn't survive. "I did lose my legs. I had to learn to walk again, but opportunities have come my way that never would have if I had not been involved that day. "My attitude to life, and I think anyone who goes through anything traumatic like that, is grabbing every single opportunity. Lots of people didn't get that chance." Wright has learned to ski again, parachuted out of an aeroplane and played sport for Great Britain at a home Games. In 2010, five years to the day after the bombings, she flew out to her first sitting volleyball World Championships in the United States. Media playback is not supported on this device "I do believe in turning things around. Anyone who goes through something so dramatic, and maybe so negative, you get so many positives afterwards and this is definitely one of them," she says. She featured as the British women's sitting volleyball team made their Paralympic debut, losing all five matches but almost taking sets off Ukraine, Brazil and Japan. "To be part of one of the biggest things that has ever happened, and represent my country, was amazing," she says. "No-one should underestimate the power of sport as a rehabilitation tool. For me, it gave me my confidence back. It gave me a goal again, a dream - something I could work towards. "I've been given a rare opportunity that I never ever dreamed of when I had legs." The finding came in a confidential, preliminary report by the Australian Communications and Media Authority (ACMA), which emerged in a court case. It said 2Day FM acted illegally by airing the phone call without consent. Lawyers for 2Day FM's owner, Southern Cross Austereo, are seeking to block the report, according to local media. The document came to light as part of their Federal Court hearing, in which they argue the ACMA does not have the power to make a criminal finding, only the courts do.

Christian returned to work two months after the prank call, while Greig remains off air and is suing her employer for failing to provide a safe workplace. She is due to give evidence in person at the London inquest into Saldanha's death.

Charles Mumbere was arrested last month after a government raid on his palace in which more than 80 people died. It is not clear whether the terrorism charges relate to the recent clashes or to existing charges he faced over the murder of a police officer in March. The king denies any involvement in the violence. Extra charges of aggravated robbery and attempted murder were also laid against him during the court hearing in the eastern town of Jinja, where he was remanded in custody until 28 December. Twelve others, including royal guards and a witch-doctor, have also been charged. They have not been asked to plead. More than 100 people were arrested following the security forces' deadly raid on the king's palace last month. The government has accused the Rwenzururu kingdom in Kasese district of recruiting and training militants that are seeking secession from the rest of Uganda to create their own republic, to be called Yira. The region, which lies on the border with the Democratic Republic of Congo, has been plagued by clashes between the army and armed groups, which have claimed dozens of lives in recent months, including members of the armed forces and civilians. Before becoming king, Mr Mumbere spent many years living in the US, where he worked in a Pennsylvania nursing home.

Media playback is not supported on this device The Briton continues his Olympic build-up in Cardiff against several athletes he will face in Rio this summer. Kenyan Geoffrey Kamworor is seeking to defend the title he won in 2014. "A world medal would be amazing," said Farah, 33. "It's going to be like a mini Olympics because you have all the guys who'll be competing in Rio." Kamworor leads a strong Kenyan contingent in Wales that is likely to provide the stiffest test to Farah this weekend. "The field is really strong. You have the Kenyan team I'm going to be competing against in Rio. It doesn't get much tougher than this," added Farah. "After a good block of training it's important you race and test yourself. In my heart I wouldn't be turning up if I didn't want to win." Farah held off Kamworor's challenge at the World Athletics Championships in Beijing last year as he successfully defended his 10,000m title. However, the British athlete believes his opponent - and his compatriot Bedan Karoki - have the pressure of being the favourites over the half-marathon distance. "It was a close race in Beijing and Geoffrey will go out there and push all the way - but that's what I need," he said. "He's the favourite along with Bedan Karoki - which is nice as there's a little bit of pressure off for a change." Kamworor, 23, is also the world cross country champion while Karoki, 25, won his last half marathon. Farah has twice won the Great North Run over the half-marathon distance and has increased his training mileage from around 100 to 120 miles a week as he looks ahead to a future away from the track. "I'd like to see how Rio goes. I really want to do the 5,000m and 10,000m double again, then come back to the World Athletics Championships in London in 2017," Farah said. "I'm not sure what I could do after that but when I finish on the track I'd like to see what I can do on the road." The figure includes spending on credit cards, bank borrowing and student loans, but excludes mortgages. It would be the largest amount in cash terms that consumers have been in debt. However, a survey conducted alongside the report suggested that most consumers are confident about paying off those debts. One reason for such confidence may be the continuing low level of interest rates, which means that borrowing is cheap. According to PwC, unsecured borrowing increased by £19.7bn last year, or 9%. It said the average household owed "close to £9,000" in 2014. The most recent report from the Bank of England put the figure at £8,000. One reason for the increase is the amount of money being borrowed by students. Nearly half of the increase - 46% - was accounted for by student loans. Borrowing on credit cards was responsible for 22% of the rise, with the rest from other sources, such as loans and overdrafts. The PwC report said that even though most people were in control of their debts, that could be tested when interest rates eventually rose. It warned that the size of debts in relation to household income could exceed its peak, which occurred in 2008, just before the financial crisis. "Consumers could begin to feel squeezed once again," said Simon Westcott, a director in PwC's financial services business. As far as secured lending is concerned, the Bank of England has previously said that a sudden rise in interest rates could leave more than 600,000 families vulnerable to a rise in mortgage rates. However, it said in December that overall household debt levels were below the long-term average. Have you been affected by the issues raised in this story?

This suggests that the key suspect - a man wearing a yellow t-shirt who left a rucksack at the shrine moments before the blast - is still on the run. No-one has laid claim to the attack, which killed 20 people. Artists have meanwhile repaired damage to the statue caused by the blast. Police say that the two foreign suspects - identified as Adem Karadag and Yusufu Mieraili - they have arrested are thought to be part of a group responsible for the 17 August blast, but do not appear to be the main protagonists. "Evidence has showed that Yusufu was probably not the yellow-shirt," national police spokesman Prawut Thavornsiri told reporters in Bangkok. He said that furthermore "nothing had confirmed" that Mr Karadag was the chief suspect. Both men have been charged with possessing "illegal bomb weapons", police say. Police have yet to confirm the nationalities of the two arrested men because they suspect that both used fake identity documents. Police on Saturday arrested Mr Karadag in a raid on a flat on the eastern outskirts of Bangkok. It was their first blast-related arrest and he has since been subjected to DNA tests. The samples taken from him do not match the DNA found on evidence that the bomber is believed to have left behind on the night of the attack, police say. Police say that seven other people are wanted over the crime. Earlier on Friday repairs to the shrine were unveiled - its centrepiece being a four-faced golden statue of the Hindu god Brahma. It was damaged in at least 12 places, most obviously the chin of one of the faces. The shrine is also considered sacred by Thai Buddhists, and attracts many foreign visitors. The unveiling was attended by worshippers and Thai soldiers. The repairs were carried out by the culture ministry's fine arts department.

Richard Johnson, 24, was convicted of killing Joshua Bradley, 19, in the fight on 8 February by a jury at Nottingham Crown Court. The court heard Mr Bradley had been trying to help a friend who was being assaulted when he was fatally injured. Johnson, of Hyson Green, was told he must serve at least 25 years before he is eligible for release. Mr Bradley was pronounced dead at the scene in Thurland Street, Nottingham. A second defendant, Zaiem Zulqurnain, 19, of Newlyn Drive, Aspley, was found not guilty of murder and also cleared of violent disorder. The jury was earlier instructed to find Muhamed Adnan, 22, of Middleton Boulevard, not guilty of murder. He had already admitted violent disorder and will be sentenced later. Mr Bradley had been a boxer since he was seven years old. He was a Nottinghamshire and Lincolnshire youth champion and represented England at youth level, according to the Nottingham Post. After his mother's death in his early teens he gave up the sport but continued to help young members at Bilborough Boxing Club, the newspaper reported. Det Supt Kate Meynell, of Nottinghamshire Police, said: "This was a wholly unnecessary death of a young man in the prime of his life. "Johnson purposefully took out a knife into the city centre, and brandished it when the fight broke out in a state of bravado.

For the first time researchers showed climate to be having a similar, significant impact on bird populations in large, distant areas of the world. Their study used population-predicting models and three decades of field data, gathered by bird-watching volunteers. The findings are published in the journal Science. Led by Durham University scientists, the team developed models that related each species' habitat to long-term climate patterns. Using annual climate records - from 1980 to 2010 - these models were able to predict where a species had experienced an improvement or a decline in suitable climate. "We then had this amazing data set collected by thousands of volunteers over decades - where people have gone out and counted birds across different countries in Europe and the United States," explained lead researcher Dr Stephen Willis. "We can use that to see to what extent our predictions match what people are finding on the ground." The outlook is different for each species. Increasing temperatures in the UK, for example, allow some species to expand their range and increase their population, while the same temperature patterns have made the UK a less suitable habitat for others. But the overall trends, this study shows, are strikingly similar in the US and Europe; populations are increasing in species predicted to benefit from climate change and decreasing in those predicted to be negatively affected. "One important thing is that we're looking at the most common birds," said Dr Willis. "These birds are doing a lot of good in the countryside - eating crop pests and helping our ecosystems work. "So we need to understand how they'll respond." The research shows how the climate is gradually remapping the avian habitat across two continents. In Europe, for example, birds such as the wren have been increasing in northern areas as winters become milder, but declining in some southern countries. The American robin has declined in some southern states, but increased further north. "This is really the first time anyone's ever looked at changes in climate across two really extensive parts of the world," said Dr Willis. "So we're getting an idea that [the impacts of] climate change on wildlife are more far-reaching than individual countries." David Noble from the British Trust for Ornithology, who was also involved in the study, told BBC News that the findings highlighted the value of such extensive data sets generated by volunteers. "The similarities in results between the two continents, despite very big differences in their landscapes, geographic barriers and patterns of vegetation, are compelling evidence for the climate change effects," he added. Dr Willis agreed, saying: "This is work carried out by thousands upon thousands of volunteers; it really demonstrates the power of citizen science." The study was carried out in partnership with the RSPB and United States Geological Survey (USGS).

A trial jury was directed to find Asif Aurangzaib, from Derby, not guilty over the botched robbery of a fast food warehouse in Birmingham.

Two others are still on trial accused of murdering Akhtar Javeed, 56. Suraj Mistry, who is accused of being one of two gunmen, and Lemar Wali, who is alleged to have been the getaway driver, deny murder, conspiracy to rob the warehouse and two counts each of possession of a pistol with intent to cause fear or violence. A third man, Tahir Zarif, of Osmaston Road in Derby, is said to have "played a central role" by the prosecution, with the Crown's barrister alleging it was he who shot Mr Javeed as he tried to flee the scene.

"It has come to our attention that Vote Leave appear to have paid for online advertising to ensure that their campaign website regarding registration is promoted ahead of the government website that directly enables citizens to register to vote," they wrote. "This website does not enable people to register, and therefore could easily mislead people in to thinking that they have secured their ballot paper. "By securing a ranking for this site higher than the official registration site, Vote Leave's underhand tactics could disenfranchise citizens without their knowledge who have in good faith used this site to try to register." In a statement, the Electoral Commission said it did not have the remit to investigate and said anyone who was not registered to vote should do so online by the 23.59 BST deadline on Tuesday 7 June.

The Institute for Public Policy Research (IPPR) said the government had been blowing "hot and cold" on its commitment to cut carbon emissions. That caution had made the energy sector jittery about investing, it concluded. The government said its proposed Energy Bill would provide "certainty" for investors in the electricity market. Energy Secretary Ed Davey said last month climate change goals could be met by banishing coal and gas in the 2030s. But launching the draft Energy Bill, the government said it wanted to retain flexibility on the target date. It had previously indicated it could make energy clean within two decades. IPPR research fellow Reg Plant said: "An ambitious decarbonisation policy offers a route to long-term sustainable economic growth, and productive British businesses. "But businesses need to know the government will provide consistent support for their investments. "And at the moment ministers blow hot and cold on their commitment to a green future." The IPPR said there were "mixed signals" because the government initially promised ambitious targets before seeming to waver about their effect on the economy. It also said the Treasury should ditch plans to introduce a "carbon floor price" - a green energy tax setting a minimum price for greenhouse gases. Mr Davey has said the scheme would encourage companies to develop more green technologies, but critics argue the tax would be passed on to consumers. A Department of Energy and Climate Change spokesman said: "The government is proposing to reform the electricity market and give certainty to investors with the Energy Bill and revolutionise the energy efficiency of millions of homes and business across the UK through the Green Deal. "This approach will deliver the best deal for Britain and for consumers, cutting energy waste and helping get us off the hook of relying on imported oil and gas by creating a greener, cleaner and ultimately cheaper mix of electricity sources right here in the UK." The IPPR report comes amid lobbying from environmental campaigners to cut subsidies to onshore wind farms further. They argue their spread across the UK has been a blight on the countryside. Mr Davey has already indicated the government wants to cut wind farm subsidies by about 10%. Prime Minister David Cameron has said the growth of renewable energy is vital for the British economy. He has promised to lead the "greenest government ever".

Her fellow Briton Laviai Nielsen, 20, finished second in her semi-final to reach Saturday's final. Scot Laura Muir qualified for both the 1500m and 3,000m finals, to be held on Saturday and Sunday respectively. The 23-year-old won her 1500m heat in four minutes 10.28 seconds, having earlier reached the 3,000 final as a fastest loser by clocking 8:55.56. Team-mate Sarah McDonald (4:12.50) will join Muir in the 1500m final, while Steph Twell (8:55.02) and Eilish McColgan (8:57.85) also advanced to the 3,000m final.

Concerns were raised about the A354 Rodwell Road, commonly known as Boot Hill, at a public meeting in the Old Town Hall on Tuesday. Several residents also complained about resulting health problems and demanded improvements. Dorset Highways said it plans to make improvements in March. During the meeting, the road was highlighted as having the worst air quality in the borough according to 2014 figures from Weymouth and Portland Borough Council Public Health. "The sheer amount of traffic using that road now is unbelievable," said Phil Hoskins, who has lived on Boot Hill since 1970. "I should be able to park outside my house, but now I've got no chance." June Pope, who has been a Boot Hill resident since 1956, described the situation as "terrible". "You can't go in the garden because of the pollution and the noise - you can't hear the television sometimes," she said. Green Party county councillor for Rodwell, Clare Sutton, who chaired the meeting, said changes to the traffic system in Weymouth prior to 2012 Olympic sailing events held in the town had "exacerbated" the situation. Dorset Highways said improvements would be made to the layout of the junction at the foot of Boot Hill in March. Mike Harries, director for environment at the county council, said: "We hope that by changing the phasing of the traffic lights at the junction at the bottom of Boot Hill, we will see an improvement to the overall flow of traffic, a reduction in congestion and, importantly, improve air quality." Warburton, 28, has not played since injuring a knee on 7 April. The Wales flanker, who has been training with the Lions, could return next week if the Blues beat Stade. "I think he's progressing very well and hopefully he'll be back fit soon," said Cardiff Blues head coach Danny Wilson. "It's hard to see past Friday night. We have a rough idea of where things might be but, once you know the result from Friday night, you know how the planning will go. "From Sam's point of view, you go day by day. Will he be fit next week? There's definitely a chance he will be but how big that chance is I couldn't tell you." Media playback is not supported on this device If Blues beat Stade they will meet the winner of Northampton v Connacht for the chance to play in Europe's top-tier club competition in 2017-18.

Warburton is expected to be fit for the Lions' first game of their summer tour of New Zealand, against New Zealand Provincial Barbarians on 3 June. Should the Blues win in Paris, the 2013 Lions captain will be assessed further with a view to potentially playing against Northampton or Connacht. "The assessment for next week, if we win this weekend, we'll see if he's available in terms of fitness for the second game should we make it," Wilson added. "He's not fit for this game and how next week pans out we'll wait and see. There's a result that needs to happen first and then decisions around his fitness."

The sports car was towed away after it was stopped outside a police station in Cambridge in August. The Huracan model was pulled over by Cambridgeshire police close to its Parkside base. Police said the company that hired out of the vehicle was "not at fault" and would not face any penalty. In a Freedom of Information response on 26 November, Cambridgeshire police said the driver had been reported for a "traffic offence" that had yet to be finalised. A Cambridgeshire Police spokesman confirmed the driver had now been offered the chance to accept a £100 fine for driving without a front number plate, plus a £300 fine and six penalty points for having no insurance. If the driver refuses to accept the penalty, the case could be taken to court. In a tweet at the time of the offence, Cambridgeshire's roads policing unit said: "Even Lamborghinis need insurance." It added: "He was stopped outside the station!" The vehicle, which retails from about £180,000, was later collected by the hire firm. Mearl C Waswick was a tail gunner on a B-17 which made an emergency landing in Strathaven, South Lanarkshire, in 1943. His niece, Vicki Graham, 63, and her husband Barry, 65, from South Dakota, visited the field at Braehead farm where the Flying Fortress came down. They also spoke to Archie Watt, 84, who saw the plane land when he was an 11-year-old boy working in a nearby field. Mr Watt said: "They just came out of the blue. The first I heard was the tops of the trees getting stripped off by the plane passing through them and then it did a bellyflop and landed without the undercarriage coming down. "We went across and when we got there they were all out. The crew were fine as I remember. It was a perfect landing under the circumstances. They picked the right field. There was hardly a mark on the plane. "It's very nice to meet the Grahams. I didn't get to know any of the crew but I'll never forget it. It was the biggest fright of my life. Every time I see a plane flying it flashes through my head." The crash also remained a secret in the Graham family for decades until their daughter Carrie wrote a story about her great-uncle, who died in 1999. He produced a penny he took as a reminder of the crash, which she now wears on a necklace, and told her a little of what happened. Standing at the crash site on Wednesday, her mother Vicki said: "It's very emotional. It was part of my uncle's history and I kind of wish he could have been able to come and see the place and meet the people and meet Archie again. "He didn't talk a lot about his war. He was a very shy and quiet man. "My uncle was the only injury. They all got out the top of the plane and when they were getting out one of the guys stood on his face. He didn't tell us that, it was his friend, another crew member. "He said the people around here were wonderful." The B-17 was heading from Newfoundland to a base in Polebrook, Northamptonshire, via Prestwick, South Ayrshire, when it lost an engine 1,000 miles out in the Atlantic and then ran out of fuel on being diverted from fog-bound Prestwick. Mrs Graham said the pilot told the crew to parachute out but they stayed with him as he brought the plane down safely. The couple were driven to the site by Glasgow Taxis, which also arranged for them to meet Mr Watt there. Gloucestershire Police said a murder investigation has been launched after the man's body was found at an address on Walkley Hill on Friday. A spokesman said it was "now clear" the man died of stab wounds. A 47-year-old man from Stroud was arrested in Southsea, Hampshire on Sunday.

The awards of the 2018 and 2022 events to Russia and Qatar have been tainted by allegations of corruption. Infantino, who was elected Fifa boss last month, wants to begin bidding for the 2026 World Cup within three months. "We have to get the 2026 bidding process absolutely right," Infantino told BBC Sport. "It's certainly the commitment that I want to give; that I will do everything I can to make sure that this happens because I think that the credibility of Fifa is, as well, at stake here. "We need to make sure that we do everything we possibly can, not only to prevent strange things to happen around bidding processes but also to prevent the perception that strange things could happen. "We need to make sure that bidding process that we put in place is absolutely bullet-proof." Media playback is not supported on this device Every World Cup bidding process since 1998 has been the subject of allegations of corruption and bribery. The bidding process for the 2018 and 2022 tournaments is the subject of an ongoing Swiss criminal investigation, while there is also a US inquiry following the arrest and indictment of several top Fifa executives by the US Department of Justice on corruption charges. In October last year, Blatter appeared to suggest there had been an agreement in place for Russia to host the event - before the vote took place. On Friday, a report into 2006 World Cup corruption allegations failed to completely rule out the possibility that a payment of 6.7m euros from the German football federation (DFB) to world governing body Fifa in April 2005 was used to buy votes. Media playback is not supported on this device Infantino, 45, was elected as Fifa chief following the suspension of predecessor Blatter, who had been in charge of the governing body since 1998. Following his election, the former Uefa boss denied that promises to the United States over who would host the 2026 World Cup secured his election win. He insisted it was now time to focus on making the next two World Cups a success. "I am a pragmatic person," he said. "Fifa needs to deliver two World Cups, one in two years and one in six years, for decisions which have been taken six years ago. "There has been a lot of speculation and a lot of allegations but not one single fact, in six years. At some stage we have to say 'let's focus on working'. I want to work and help Russia and Qatar host the best World Cups ever, as we always say." The Great Exhibition of the North will get £5m, with "public and private funders" providing any further budget. The Department for Culture, Media and Sport said a £15m "legacy fund" to attract cultural investment in the North would also be provided. The competition will run until June, with the winner announced in October. A board has been set up to handle applications to host the two-month show, chaired by the chief executive of Welcome to Yorkshire, Sir Gary Verity. Sir Gary said he hoped to see bids from the "many towns and cities across the north of England that have what it takes to host the Great Exhibition of the North". "We will be showcasing our art, design and culture to the world in 2018 and high quality bids are an essential part of ensuring that we deliver an incredible Great Exhibition."

Mr Keiller will take over from Crawford Gillies at the economic development agency in January. It was announced last month that Mr Keiller was to retire as Wood Group chief executive officer. Scottish Enterprise chief executive Dr Lena Wilson said he had a "wealth of leadership and business experience". Dr Wilson added: "I would like to take this opportunity to thank Crawford Gillies for his commitment and leadership over what has been nearly seven years." Riot police fired tear gas to try to disperse the protesters, many of whom hurled stones at the police lines. Tahrir Square was the epicentre of February's revolt that led to President Hosni Mubarak being toppled. Many of the protesters were calling for the prosecution of former officials to be speeded up. As dawn broke, stones and broken glass littered the streets around Tahrir Square. Witnesses said it was worst violence in the square for weeks. The confrontation started on Tuesday when police cleared a sit-in outside the state TV building by families of those killed in February's uprising, activists said. The protesters later regrouped outside the interior ministry and clashes broke out with police. Fighting escalated and moved to Tahrir Square where lines of riot police carrying shields sealed off the main streets and dozens of security vehicles parked in side streets. As volleys of tear gas rained down, injured demonstrators were seen lying on the ground, some dazed and bloodied. "The people want the fall of the regime," some of the demonstrators chanted. Ahmed Abdel Hamid, 26, who was among the protesters, said people were angry that court cases against senior officials were being delayed. Last week, Egypt's former Trade Minister Rachid Mohamed Rachid was sentenced to five years in prison in absentia for embezzling public funds.

The Magal is a holy day for the Mouride sect, which overwhelmingly practises a moderate Sufi version of Islam, emphasising the power of hard work. It is marked by travel over long distances, feasting and expressions of brotherly love. They issued separate appeals in the Journal du Dimanche (JDD) newspaper, as France remains in shock from the murder of a priest by Islamist extremists last week. The 41 prominent Muslims and Mr Valls said a French Muslim foundation set up in 2005 must be relaunched. Mr Valls's stance drew some criticism. Two politicians in the right-wing opposition party The Republicans - Eric Ciotti and Christian Estrosi - accused Mr Valls of hypocrisy for failing to prevent the opening of a Saudi-funded mosque in Nice. Mr Valls was booed at a commemoration in Nice on 18 July for the 84 people killed by a lorry which ploughed into a holiday crowd on the city's beachfront promenade. The Tunisian driver is believed to have been inspired by so-called Islamic State (IS). There is widespread concern in Europe about the influence of Saudi Arabia's ultra-conservative Wahhabi version of Islam. In his appeal in JDD (in French), Mr Valls said the French state must avoid "any paternalism" towards Islam, but "there is an urgent need to help Islam in France to rid itself of those who are undermining it from the inside". "To do that, we have a duty to build a real pact with Islam in France, and give the foundation a central role." He did not give details of what the foundation's role would be or how it would interact with mosques. Mr Valls, a Socialist, warned that "if Islam doesn't help the Republic to fight those who challenge public freedoms, it will get harder for the Republic to guarantee this freedom of worship". Separately, 41 prominent French Muslims issued a joint statement in JDD saying "we must speak up now because Islam has become a public issue and the current situation is intolerable". The signatories included former ministerial advisers, entrepreneurs, lawyers, scientists and academics. They deplored the spate of attacks by jihadists in France, including those in Paris last year, the Nice attack and the murder of an elderly priest in a church in a Rouen suburb. "We Muslims were silent before because we understood that in France religion is a private matter," they said - a reference to the French state's strict secular policy. "A Foundation for Islam in France was set up more than 10 years ago and now it is time to reactivate it," they said. "It has never worked properly... but now it should be empowered to collect donations." They called for "a cultural battle against radical Islamism among the youth". It should include transparent funding of mosques, proper training and salaries for imams and theological work, they said. In 2004 the French government said the country's imams must all learn French and widen their education because, it argued, a majority of them were from outside France.

Grampian Police said Moray had taken the brunt of the weather. Heavy snow has also fallen across the Scottish Borders, but roads remained passable. A mountain rescue team was called to assist a group of nine people - including six teenagers - left stuck by the snow in the Cairngorms. They were later flown to safety in Braemar by a Royal Navy helicopter. The group - from Belgium - had been climbing in the Ben Macdui area. About 400 homes remain without electricity in the north east. Scottish Hydro said engineers were at work on the problem and they hoped to have everyone reconnected by Tuesday evening. The firm said Aboyne and Elgin were among the areas worst affected when the heavy snow brought down power cables. The return of wintry weather follows the mildest March ever recorded in Scotland. A week ago the temperature in the Aberdeenshire town of Aboyne reached 23.6C - the warmest March day on record. The high in Aboyne on Tuesday was 3.2C - but it felt much colder in the biting wind and snow. The Met Office issued amber warnings for much of Scotland. Police in the north east said up to 25cm (10 inches) of snow had accumulated in places. Across lower parts of the central belt, about 1cm (0.4in) to 4cm (1.6in) fell. Transport Minister Keith Brown said: "This kind of weather is much more normal for Scotland than the superb weather we have had over the previous days. So we have had, for example, 124 gritters out overnight." By James CookScotland Correspondent, BBC News The minister praised forecasters for getting the conditions "spot-on" and giving warnings to people. He said the Easter school holidays had helped ease the traffic management problem because the numbers on the road were much lower than normal. "We think the snow will push through into the north of England today and behind that we will have some colder air later on today," Mr Brown said. "That is something to be aware of because that can bring its own challenges in terms of freezing on roads. "Beyond that we expect it to return to normal circumstances later on tonight and into tomorrow." The late fall of snow has given Scotland's ski areas hope of more business after a disappointing winter. Colin Matthews, operations manager at Cairngorm Mountain, said: "It's very wintry, I'm glad to say - very cold at the top of the mountains - minus six and drifting snow.

The Sixth Form Colleges Association also said more than a third of colleges feared that without better funding they could cease as going concerns by 2020. It sent online questionnaires to all 93 colleges; 72 responded and of these 26 said they feared for their viability. Last month the government announced a review of post-16 education. Sixth-form colleges have faced deeper cuts to their budgets than any other group of institutions, the association's report said, with some losing a third of their funding between 2011 and 2016. The future is "equally bleak", as the government has decided not to protect the 16-19 education budget from spending cuts. "Further reductions are highly likely," the report said. In addition, sixth-form colleges are not eligible to reclaim VAT, meaning institutions have lost out, on average, to the tune of £317,964, the report said. The Department for Education said moving to provide funding on a per-student basis had ended unfair differences between schools and colleges. The association's questionnaire asked each college to report the cumulative impact of the funding cuts introduced since 2011. Of the 72 colleges that responded, 52 said they had dropped courses as the result. A-levels in modern languages have been cut in 28 colleges - more than a third - while 17 - just under a quarter - reported cuts in science, technology, engineering and maths subjects. Colleges "have responded creatively and decisively" to the financial squeeze, says the report - but 68 out of 72 said they were "concerned" or "extremely concerned" about their financial health. Asked about the year 2016-17, 50 colleges believed their funding would not be enough to provide a high quality education, while 59 said they would not be able to provide support for disadvantaged students. Sixth-form colleges outperform school and academy sixth forms while educating more disadvantaged students and receiving less funding, says the report, but it continues: "The sector has reached the point where it cannot absorb any further reductions." Sixth Form Colleges Association deputy chief executive James Kewin said funding inequalities between sixth-form colleges and school and academy sixth forms should end. "The sector cannot survive on starvation rations... and will be unable to provide young people with the high-quality education they need to progress to higher education and employment," he said. The government's review of post-16 education, announced last month by the departments for education and business, innovation and skills, will aim for greater efficiency in the sector. "A major reform of post-16 education and training institutions is now necessary," said the announcement. "We will need to move towards fewer, often larger, more resilient and efficient providers." The review will focus on further education and sixth-form colleges, "although the availability and quality of all post-16 academic and work-based provision in each area will also be taken into account". The announcement also promised early action on financial stability, with possible solutions including asking colleges to review market position, financial management and informal twinning arrangements with other institutions. A Department for Education spokesman said the government had "ended the unfair difference between post-16 schools and colleges by funding them per student, rather than discriminating between qualifications. "We have provided sufficient funds for every full-time student to do a full timetable of courses and increased support for those who successfully study four or more A-levels and large TechBacc programmes." Thousands more students now stay in education or training after the age of 16, the spokesman added. Tristram Hunt, Labour's Shadow Education Secretary, called the findings "deeply troubling". "Modern languages and science are an essential part of a 21st-century curriculum. We need to widen young people's horizons, to equip them with the broad range of knowledge and skills they need to thrive in the new digital world.

Dr Aijaz Bashir Ashai admitted causing his victim to engage in sexual activity at the La Mon hotel in Belfast on 14 July. At the time, Ashai was working for the Nepalese cricket team who were playing T20 World Cup qualifiers at Stormont. Ashai, 42, was sentenced to four months in prison, suspended for three years. At Newtownards Magistrates Court, a prosecuting lawyer told how Ashai's victim had twice spurned his "sexual advances" during a massage at the hotel spa. "She shouted 'no,' left the room immediately and told the manager, who saw the injured party exit the treatment room in a distressed state," said the lawyer. Immediately after the incident, Ashai "apologised repeatedly" but was arrested by police who had been alerted. The court heard that after he apologised for his behaviour, Ashai offered the woman a £10 tip, which was refused. When arrested and questioned by police, Ashai, from Mumbai in India, accepted he had gone for a massage, but denied behaving in any sexual way. He initially claimed the only time he touched the woman was to move her arm away from his inner leg as it became painful as she used her elbow on the muscle. However in court, Ashai accepted his guilt and the prosecutor said that until now he had no convictions. A defence solicitor told the court that he had been "expressly instructed to express his sincere remorse for the upset and distress that was suffered by this young lady," adding that it was "commendable" she had gone back to work so quickly after her ordeal. He agreed that Ashai was "very fortunate" his victim had written what the judge said was "one of the most balanced victim impact statements I have seen". The solicitor also agreed that it was "surprising" and an aggravating factor in the case "for a man in his position" to have behaved in this way, but he said that unlike many similar cases, there was an absence of other aggravating factors. He revealed that Ashai had already been served with a notice that he will no longer be permitted to stay in the UK and that when he does return to India, he may have further professional sanctions. The judge also ordered Ashai to pay £1,000 in compensation. Huw "Badger" Norfolk, 27, is wanted over a communications mast fire last year and an attack on the Bristol Post's headquarters in 2011.

A group later claimed responsibility, saying it deliberately targeted the paper, but did not reveal its identity. "Norfolk is wanted in connection with these two serious crimes and we're asking the public to help us to find him," said Det Chief Insp Andy Bevan, from Avon and Somerset Police. "The arson attack at Bathampton mast on January 3 2013 caused damage worth several hundred thousand pounds and affected TV, radio and mobile phone signals to thousands of homes and businesses including sole and small-scale traders and independent businesses that rely on their telephones to work and trade. "It robbed many people of their only lifeline in the event of an emergency and put the lives of thousands of innocent adults and children at risk." He said damage totalling thousands of pounds had been caused to the newspaper officers. "Both incidents caused huge disruption to the lives of innocent people and we're taking them extremely seriously," he added. The force said the two incidents were part of a much wider investigation into more than 100 incidents of arson and criminal damage.

Fire crews were alerted to a smoke alarm sounding at a property in the Midstocket area of Aberdeen at around 17:.10 on Wednesday. Officers entered the house and extinguished a small kitchen fire but also found the body of an elderly woman. No one else was in the property and no neighbouring homes were affected, the fire service said. Guardian Systems Ltd, which was based in the Springkerse Industrial Estate, had a turnover of £1.5m, but saw a fall in orders during the summer. The company said this had led to "major cash flow problems and unsustainable losses". An associate company, Guardian Soft Furnishings Ltd, has also been placed into liquidation. Guardian Systems Ltd, which supplied the residential and commercial market, was founded in 1993. Accountants Campbell Dallas said it would provide "every possible support" to employees affected by the closure. Derek Forsyth, head of restructuring and insolvency, said: "It is unfortunate that a number of factors created significant problems that ultimately caused both businesses to be placed in liquidation." Mark Donnelly, 22, from Greencastle Road, Omagh, County Tyrone, denies manslaughter. This week the jury failed to reach a verdict in the case. Mr McGovern was found dead at a friend's house after he was attacked on New Year's Eve 2012 in Omagh. Mr Donnelly was in Dungannon Crown Court on Friday to hear a prosecution lawyer say his instructions were to proceed with a second trial. The lawyer said he had taken instruction from the Director of Public Prosecutions. A defence lawyer said he had consulted with his senior QC, and given the "intensive" media coverage, all they would ask is for a reasonable time to elapse before the case goes to court again. The judge, who said it was a matter of balance, between that and having the case dealt with reasonably expediently, agreed to postpone the retrial until early in the New Year, possibly by the end of February. Although there was a suggested date for the last week of February 2015, the prosecution lawyer said he would check on the availability of prosecution witnesses and report back to the court by next week in an effort to meet the new date. Sri Lanka's cricket board said preliminary investigations suggested the motorcyclist was "flung into Mr Kulasekara's path" when he lost control while trying to overtake a bus.

7 March 2016 Last updated at 21:01 GMT It has challenged the world's top-ranked Go player to a set of matches running until March 15 to see whether man or machine comes out on top. The tech firm's AlphaGo software has already beaten the European champion of the board game, but South Korea's Lee Se-dol should prove a tougher challenge, as BBC's Stephen Evans discovered. George Porter headed the home side in front with a bullet header in the first 10 minutes, having freed himself at the back post to get on the end of a Blair Turgott corner. The two sides then exchanged penalties in quick succession. Richie Bennett equalised for Barrow before Turgott smashed in a similarly confident spot-kick into the top corner to restore the Ravens' lead.

Lee Min-bok said he had carried out the launches at night four times since January, most recently on Saturday. The Seth Rogen comedy, about a fictional CIA plot to kill North Korean leader Kim Jong-un, enraged Pyongyang. Sony initially pulled the film after a hacking attack and threats to attack cinemas which were screening it. But it changed its mind and gave the film a limited cinema release after being accused of responding to an attack on free speech. The FBI says North Korea was behind the hack and threats, though it denies this. Mr Lee, a defector from the North, said he had tied the DVDs to balloons along with bundles of US dollars and leaflets criticising Mr Kim's regime. He told AFP news agency: "I launched thousands of copies and about a million leaflets on Saturday, near the western part of the border." He said the launches were all done in remote areas and without publicity but that the police "would have no right to stop me". "'You know what's more destructive than a nuclear bomb? Words,' says North Korean leader Kim Jong-un (Randall Park), with a tear in his eye, in The Interview. It's a prophetic line in this otherwise limp comedy, which has stirred up a world of controversy it doesn't earn." Sara Stewart, New York Post 'Limp' and 'torture' - How critics reviewed The Interview Mr Lee told CNN, which joined him on Saturday's launch, that he had not laughed at The Interview and found it vulgar. But he said the North "hates this film because it shows Kim Jong-un as a man, not a God" and that he wanted to "tell the truth" to North Koreans. Any North Korean who had access to a DVD player and was found to have watched the film would likely face a lengthy sentence in a prison camp. South Korean activists have repeatedly carried out balloon drops across the border of material which they say shows the reality of life outside the restrictive country, in the hope of encouraging North Koreans to reject propaganda and stand up to their leadership. The North has demanded the South stop such launches, saying they are provocative. Its border guards have in the past tried to shoot down the balloons. But while South Korea says the activity is unhelpful - and potentially places people living near the border in danger - it says its citizens are entitled to distribute their opinions. Hearn, World Snooker's chairman, has suggested that O'Sullivan should know better than to be so critical. The five-time world champion argued that snooker is a "nothing-type sport". Ronnie's latest comments are off the scale, even for him Hearn told BBC Radio 5 live: "The game of snooker has never been in a stronger position. Prize money has trebled in the last five years." On Monday, O'Sullivan said that, in order for it to thrive, snooker needs to embrace a more corporate image, similar to sports such as golf, tennis and Formula 1. He also questioned the levels of prize money available to players, adding that the sport struggled to attract enough lucrative sponsorship. The total prize money available on the tour this season has reached £10m for the first time as part of Hearn's revamp of the sport.

"There are many, many sports that would cut their arm off to be in the position that snooker's in. We're on an upward trend. "In terms of prize money, there was a time, maybe five or six years ago, where we spent 10 years in the doldrums, there's no question about it.

An attempted murder investigation has been launched after the 16-year-old was found in Wayford Close in Meole Brace. Police want to trace a group of up to four men, including one in a green t-shirt, who were seen running away from the area at 21:45 BST on Monday. The teenager is being treated in hospital while Wayford Close and Stapleton Road remain cordoned off. More on this and other stories from Shropshire DCI Paul Moxley said: "This is thought to be a targeted attack and we have no reason to believe there is any wider threat to the community." "A concerned member of the public found the boy on the floor, they called the ambulance service who called us," he said. "The individual's family are at the hospital - they're a large family," he added. Lauren Cox, 27, from Oxted, Surrey, pleaded guilty to four charges of sexual activity with a child under 18 while in a position of trust. Croydon Crown Court heard that Cox formed a close relationship with the boy when he was 13 and began a sexual relationship with him in 2015. Police said Cox, who will be sentenced next month, had shown no remorse. Pc Laura Davies said Cox befriended the boy shortly after starting work at the school in Bromley, south-east London, in 2012, when he was 13. She said: "She abused her position of trust as a teacher and groomed the boy, which went on to sexual abuse. "The abuse has had an extremely adverse effect on the boy, with his studies suffering as a result." PC Davies added: "It's most concerning that she showed no remorse. As professionals, teachers have a specific duty of care to young people, and this was abused." Scotland Yard said Cox began having sexual contact with the boy in January 2015, sending him explicit pictures and videos of herself. The relationship ended when the boy's parents suspected something was wrong and Cox was arrested in September the same year.

It said its expectation comes after receiving advice from the Department of Culture, Arts and Leisure (DCAL). As a result, most of the arts organisations it funds will get no additional grant money this year. Of the 107 arts organisations that receive support from ACNI for running and programming costs, only five will receive more funding in 2016-17. Those organisations are An Gaelaras, Community Arts Partnership, Ulster Youth Choir, Irish Traditional Music Archive and the Northern Ireland Piping and Drumming School. Bob Collins, chair of the Arts Council, said the sector was facing another challenging year and criticised "ten years of disinvestment by government" in the arts. The Arts Council's funding from the DCAL was cut by 11%, or £1.38m, in 2015-16 and it now faces a reduction of about £500,000 in 2016-17. The council said it had found most of the savings required through shedding staff and moving headquarters from Belfast to Lisburn in County Antrim. Mr Collins said the funding to the arts had been cut for a number of years. "There has been a cumulative loss of £3.5m of exchequer funding for the arts over the last three years alone, a reduction of over 25%," he said. "It is with sincere concern for the future that I call on the new minister and the new Northern Ireland Executive to begin to focus anew on the value of the arts, on their relationship to everyone in Northern Ireland and to begin a programme of reinvestment in the arts." DCAL itself is being dissolved this year and its responsibilities taken over by the new Department of Communities. About £8.7m which the council receives from DCAL will be used to fund running costs for arts organisations, while the Arts Council also distributes £4.7m from the National Lottery to cover arts activity. Seven people died at the scene. They were found naked or half-naked. Another three people died on their way to hospital. The attack took place in the municipality of Garcia. Authorities say they are investigating links to organised crime, possible involving drugs cartels. Mexico's El Universal newspaper said (in Spanish) that the attack happened in a centre that distributed Corona brand beer to shops in Garcia, 40km (25 miles) from the city of Monterrey. The victims were believed to be employees at the centre. An official said the gunmen entered the property, demanded money from the workers and then started shooting. Nuevo Leon State Attorney General Javier Flores said a weapon and drugs were found in the warehouse. Garcia is the hometown of the next governor of Nuevo Leon state, Jaime Rodriguez, who battled the Zetas drug cartel while mayor.

Court, a 24-time Grand Slam singles champion and now a Christian pastor, is an opponent of gay marriage. Former world number four Sam Stosur hinted earlier on Tuesday that players may refuse to play in protest. Asked if he would support a boycott, Murray said: "It'd be more beneficial to do something before the tournament." The world number one added: "For players to be in a position where you're in a slam and boycotting playing on the court, that would potentially cause a lot of issues. "If the players come to an agreement - if they think the name should be changed or whatever - that should be decided before the event starts. "But I would imagine a lot of the players would be pretty offended by that." Murray beat Russia's Andrey Kuznetsov in four sets to reach the French Open second round on Tuesday. Court, 74, has said she will not fly on Qantas "where possible" in protest of its support of same-sex marriage. "I think everyone can have their opinion. I don't agree with it, but I guess we'll cross that bridge when we get to the Australian Open," Stosur, 33, said earlier on Tuesday. "We'll see who wants to play on Margaret Court Arena and who doesn't." The Australian number one added: "I find it very hard to believe that the name would ever be changed - the court's named Margaret Court Arena because of what she did in tennis." Tennis Australia have said they will not rename the Arena, stating that Court's personal views are her own. The venue was originally called Show Court One when it opened in 1988 before it was renamed in 2003 in tribute to the multiple Grand Slam winner. Stosur's fellow Australian player Casey Dellacqua, who has two children with partner Amanda Judd, tweeted her opposition to Court: "Margaret. Enough is enough". And Stosur issued her support for friend Dellacqua, saying: "It's been pretty fiery. Casey was obviously very adamant, and I wanted to support my friend and that's why I sent out my first tweet in a very long time."

The Nanjing Number One Secondary School has rolled out a scheme where student can "borrow" marks to top up low scores so they can pass their tests. The school said it was aimed at reducing the stress of taking exams. The scheme has become a talking point in China which has seen rising concern over an education system still reliant on high-pressure examinations. According to media reports this week, the school introduced the scheme in November last year for 49 students in an elite programme aimed at grooming them for entry into US colleges. They can "borrow" marks from the bank for certain subjects deemed to require more effort in studying, such as languages, biology, chemistry and history. So far 13 students have taken part in the scheme. They incur a debt when they "borrow" marks, and are expected to repay it with marks scored in subsequent tests. To encourage students to improve in their subjects, they can be charged "interest" if they do not repay their loans quickly enough. And just like in a real bank, the students will be given "credit scores", based on their behaviour records, school attendance and fulfilment of classroom cleaning duties. Students can also be "blacklisted" from borrowing if they fail to repay their loans on time. If teachers approve, they can even ask a classmate to pay their loans on their behalf. "I missed some classes because I was sick, and I didn't do well in a geography test. But the 'marks bank' gave me a chance to save the situation," one student named Xiaozhu told Yangzi Evening Paper. The school did not immediately respond to the BBC's request for an interview. But director Huang Kan said in interviews with Chinese media that the scheme was aimed at changing China's exam culture and "exploring a new evaluation system". "In past exams, scores have become everything, and the pressure on students has become immense," she said. "The purpose of an examination is to measure, give feedback, correct, and elevate standards - and not to make things difficult, punish or damage a student's enthusiasm." She added that the scheme would encourage students to have "greater responsibility and a greater aptitude for learning". China's education system has often been criticised as being too rigid and reliant on tests such as the infamously gruelling Gaokao national exam. A 2014 study by a Beijing-based non-profit education group found that most cases of student suicides could be attributed to pressure from school tests. The "marks bank" has generated intense interest in Chinese media and online. While some believe it is a good move, others have questioned whether it may inadvertently send the wrong message to students. "Exams may lose their rigour. If you don't do well in a test you can just take it again. But life often doesn't give you second chances," said one Weibo user. Beijing News quoted an education expert as saying that the scheme was a "double-edged sword" as some students may take exams less seriously and end up developing "inertia". But Ms Huang has defended the idea. "The 'marks bank' is not a charitable institution aimed at giving out marks to lazy students, rather it is a nurturing cradle aimed at giving opportunities to diligent students," she told Xiandai Kuaibao.

Communications Minister Ayoub Kara alleged that the channel supported terrorism, and said both its Arabic and English-language channels would be taken off air. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu accuses the broadcaster of "incitement". Al Jazeera has condemned the decision. The Israeli government said it was basing its decision on a similar ban by several Sunni Arab states, amid their diplomatic rift with Qatar, which hosts and funds Al Jazeera. Mr Kara said cable TV providers had agreed to take the network off the air, but that closing its Jerusalem bureau would need further legislation. "Al Jazeera has become the main tool of Daesh [the Islamic State group], Hamas, Hezbollah and Iran," he told a news conference. Mr Netanyahu tweeted his congratulations to Mr Kara, "who on my instructions took concrete steps to end Al Jazeera's incitement". An Al Jazeera official in the Qatari capital Doha told AFP that the channel "deplores this action from a state that is called the only democratic state in the Middle East, and considers what it has done is dangerous". Mr Netanyahu had accused the pan-Arab TV channel of fuelling a recent crisis around a holy site in Jerusalem known to Muslims as al-Haram al-Sharif and to Jews as the Temple Mount. New security measures imposed by Israel after two policemen were killed nearby sparked protests by Palestinians, and the Israeli government eventually removed the security apparatus, which included metal detectors. The Israeli prime minister vowed in late July to "expel Al Jazeera" for its reporting of the issue, which he said had incited violence. The Al Jazeera official defended its coverage, saying it was "professional and objective". The network's editor in Jerusalem has accused Mr Netanyahu of collusion with his autocratic Arab neighbours in an attack on free and independent media. Al Jazeera hits back at closure calls Al Jazeera has come under attack from several governments in the region in recent months to the concern of free press campaigners. Saudi Arabia and Jordan both shut bureaux of the Qatari-funded broadcaster against the tiny Gulf state. Others, including the United Arab Emirates and Bahrain, have blocked its channel and websites. Israel's communications ministry said on Sunday that "nearly all countries in the region... have concluded that Al Jazeera incites terrorism and religious extremism". The ministry added that it had become "ridiculous that the channel continued to broadcast from Israel". Shutting the network was on a list of 13 demands by the four Arab nations leading a boycott of Qatar that were tabled in June. The Arabic-language news channel first launched in 1996, and shook up the media landscape in the Middle East by airing criticisms of governments and rulers in the region. Al Jazeera says it was the first Arabic channel to feature Israeli politicians and commentators on the air. Israel has however frequently accused it of being biased in reporting the Israel-Palestinian conflict.

Footage allegedly shows badgers caught in snares and shot on Moscar Moor, near Bamford, Derbyshire, earlier this year. The Hunt Investigation Team (Hit), which recorded the film, claim the animals were deliberately targeted. The Duke and Duchess of Rutland, who run the estate, said they were unaware of any alleged illegal activities on their land. Snares, which are not illegal in the UK, are used to catch foxes and rabbits, but are not permitted for catching protected species like badgers. Hit, which wants to see grouse driven shooting banned, said during a four week period in spring the group covertly filmed on open moorland near Bamford Edge, and claim they discovered "horrific wildlife persecution". They filmed two badgers caught in snares. The first, they believe, was shot by a masked member of the estate staff and buried in a nearby wood. The second trapped badger is approached by another armed man who is seen trying to shoot off the snare, but the bleeding animal then runs off into the moorland with the wires still attached, the group said. A spokeswoman for Hit, who did not want to be identified, said: "The sad thing is grouse eggs are not even a major part of a badger's diet, they're just a small part of it, so the persecution is completely disproportionate. "Driven grouse shooting is not compatible with wildlife protection. "What has been peddled as a traditional and respectable custom is actually at the expense of so much of the wildlife." A spokesman for the Duke and Duchess of Rutland, from the Belvoir Estate in Leicestershire, said in a statement: "They were not aware of any alleged illegal activities being carried out on the land. "They are horrified by these allegations and will investigate them fully." Derbyshire Police said it had begun an investigation and would be examining the footage. The Peak District National Park has not yet commented. The mother of six from south London, who cannot be named, was found guilty of fraud and child abuse. She was sentenced to seven and a half years after Croydon Crown Court heard she claimed £375,000 in benefits. She duped doctors for over a decade - convincing them to insert feeding tubes into her son and daughter's stomachs. The woman told specialists her daughter had stomach problems and her son had asthma. Judge Elizabeth Smaller said she had forced the children to "live double lives to fall in with your deception". She said doctors believed her "because why would a parent present their child as ill when they were not?" Dr Eveline Knight-Jones, who prepared the paediatric overview for the trial, said: "In London it is all too easy for fabricated illness cases to attend several different hospitals some distance from their local hospital, because there are so many hospitals, particularly specialist hospitals." Most of the health professionals the children saw took what the mother said about them "at face value," the court heard. Jurors were told the mother was "resistant" to attempts to investigate the causes of the alleged symptoms and refused to allow one child to be admitted to hospital for a two-week review. The defence claimed she suffered from a severe anxiety disorder, which caused her to "catastrophise" and overstate her children's medical symptoms. The court heard she received £287,800 in income support payments between 2002 and 2013 as well as disability living allowance. She also claimed to be a single mother but was living with her partner, the children's father. Det Sgt Stuart Parsons, said: "It is staggering to think that the mother's wilful actions resulted in the children undergoing unnecessary surgical and medical interventions. "She lied at every opportunity, presenting herself as a lone parent coping with ill and vulnerable children. "The reality was that she resided with her partner and fabricated her children's conditions for personal financial gain." A serious case review has yet to report its findings.

The rights group, along with the other activists, has called for an inquiry into the death of Solo Sandeng. Another activist Fatoumata Jawara, who was detained with Mr Sandeng during protests on Thursday, is believed to have serious injuries, Amnesty said. Several senior opposition leaders were arrested on Saturday after demanding answers from the authorities. There has been no comment yet from the Gambian government. Amnesty International says Mr Sandeng, the National Organising Secretary of the opposition United Democratic Party (UDP), and fellow UDP member Ms Jawara were among a number of people detained after taking part in a peaceful protest on Thursday. The group said the circumstances surrounding Mr Sandeng's death are unclear, but that he died shortly after his arrest. They are also "deeply concerned" for the welfare of Ms Jawara. "The tragic death in detention of Solo Sandeng must leave no space for impunity. The authorities must conduct an immediate, thorough and independent investigation," said Sabrina Mahtani, Amnesty International West Africa researcher. Senior members of the UDP, including the leader Ousainu Darboe, held a news conference earlier on Saturday in which they demanded answers. Along with around 150 supporters, they then began a protest march, but were swiftly rounded up by Gambia's security force who eyewitnesses said fired tear gas at the crowd. Mr Sandeng had been calling for electoral reform when he was held. The protest happened while long-time leader Yahya Jammeh was out of the country. The tiny West African nation is set to hold presidential elections in December. Opposition groups have called for reforms to enable the elections to be free and fair. President Jammeh has ruled The Gambia since he came to power in a coup 20 years ago. Human Rights Watch last September brought out a report in which it said Gambian forces routinely committed abuses, and political opponents and critics of the president were regular targets. Five fire appliances and the forestry unit were involved in trying to stop the spread of the grassland blaze on the Glenrinnes Estate. The fire coincides with warnings that the north east is at an increased risk of wildfires due to the warmer weather and dry conditions.

The 31-year-old is set to miss his side's first four Championship games. Bresnan played for the champions in their defeat by the MCC last week. "He will now start an intense period of rehabilitation on his torn calf and we hope to have him back fit and strong during the middle of May," physio Kunwar Bansil told the club website. She had complained about how she was treated after returning to work after maternity and sick leave because of a disability related to her pregnancy. The woman brought her disability and sex discrimination case, aided by the Equality Commission. The PSNI said it accepted the findings of the commission's report. When the woman returned to work, she was given restricted duties and called to appear before an all-male attendance panel. She was given an informal warning for unsustainable absence, but it was rescinded when she appealed the finding. A new, mixed-gender panel that was convened five months later also found her attendance was unsatisfactory. It issued an informal note of concern that was to remain live for two years and limited her options for applying for promotion. In settling the case, the PSNI has also removed the note of concern from her personnel record, granted full mitigation for her period of absence, and adjusted her records and duties to take account of her disability. The officer said: "This was an extremely difficult and stressful time for me and the way I was treated when I returned to work made it much worse." She added: "I hope that this will lead to other officers who are faced with such difficulties being treated better by the organisation in future." The Equality Commission's Eileen Lavery said: "Coping with ill health immediately after the birth of a child can be a very difficult experience and it is important that employers make all necessary arrangements to enable a returning member of staff resume her duties and career." "In this case, the PSNI agreed to meet with the Equality Commission to review its policies, practices and procedures, and to consider recommendations the commission might make." ACC Mark Hamilton, head of the PSNI's human resources department, said: "It is important to note that the PSNI were actively reviewing their attendance management policy at the time this case was settled.

Robert Marchand has clocked up 105 years and now a new record for the furthest distance cycled in one hour. The French cyclist managed 22.547km (14 miles) at the national velodrome, taking the top spot in a new category - for riders over 105. Mr Marchand already holds the record for those aged over 100 - 26.927km - set in 2012. He "could have done better", he says, but missed a sign showing 10 minutes to go. "My legs didn't hurt," he told BFMTV. "My arms hurt but that's because of rheumatism." To be fair, he had admitted before the event at the Saint-Quentin-en-Yvelines velodrome near Paris that breaking his previous hour record would be tough. "I'm not in such good shape as I was a couple of years back," he told AFP news agency. "I am not here to be champion. I am here to prove that at 105 years old you can still ride a bike," he said. Hundreds of spectators cheered him on trackside. Born on 26 November 1911, Mr Marchand puts his fitness down to diet - lots of fruit and vegetables, a little meat, not too much coffee - and an hour a day on the cycling home-trainer. A prisoner of war in World War Two, he went on to work as a lorry driver and sugarcane planter in Venezuela, and a lumberjack in Canada. No stranger to sport outside cycling, he competed in gymnastics at national level and has been a boxer. The current men's hour record is held by the UK's Bradley Wiggins - 54.526km - which he set in June 2015. Unconfirmed reports said at least two people had been killed by Cylcone Evan, which hit Samoa on Thursday. In the capital, Apia, homes were flattened and the Vaisigano River burst its banks, washing away cars, trees and other debris. But fears the cyclone might hit Samoa a second time have receded. New Zealand Foreign Minister Murray McCully told reporters that "the best guess" was that the cyclone would not return. Samoa's Disaster Management Office said power was off throughout the country. "Tanugamanono power plant is completely destroyed and we might not have power for at least two weeks," it said. The village of Lelata, just outside Apia, was also ravaged by the cyclone. The village looked "like a tsunami has struck" it, local reporter Keni Lesa was quoted as saying by the Associated Press news agency. New Zealand's high commissioner in Apia, Nick Hurley, said the cyclone was bigger than other tropical storms he had experienced in the region, and its strength was unexpected. "The unpredictable nature of this one has made it quite different," he said. "The forecast winds did not give any indication of how strong the impact was going to be." The cyclone generated winds of up to 165km/h (100 mph) as it hit Samoa.

Steven Cook, 20, from Sandbach, Cheshire, was last seen outside a pub in Malia, Crete, asking for directions. Cheshire police said Greek authorities had now confirmed the remains found in a well belonged to him after forensic examination. The force said its priority was to ensure Mr Cook "is flown home to the UK as soon as possible". The family said on Facebook they had learned their "much loved and missed son, brother, uncle, nephew, and friend will be finally coming home to be with us once again". He brought "laughter, love and happiness" over 20 years and "shone amongst us," they said. "Whilst we always carried hope in our hearts that Steve would come back much sooner and once again be able to share in our lives... sadly we will be bringing him home to say our farewells," the statement on social media added. Det Insp Gary McIntyre said the family was "very appreciative" of all the support the media and the public had given them over the years. Mr Cook's remains were taken to a nearby hospital after being found. The 10ft (3m) high portrait was created by a group of local street artists in 2014 as part of a festival celebrating his birth. The image, close to the entrance to the Laurel and Hardy Museum, was daubed with green fluorescent paint. A museum spokesman described the attack as "disappointing". Cumbria Police are investigating. The museum spokesman said: "The mural was done as a live installation by some local artists during a one-day festival to celebrate Stan's birthday last year called Another Fine Fest. "It has been hugely popular since it was done, with hundreds of photos taken and shared via social media, a real advert for the town. "We are pretty gutted at what's happened. One of the things we aim to do is inject our amazing town of Ulverston with some extra added colour, beauty and original, awe-inspiring art. The fluorescent green is colourful, but it certainly isn't beautiful, artistic or original." A spokesman for Primal Science, the group of street artists that created the painting, added: "Thank you to our fellow street artists for their contribution, but unfortunately their efforts have left a lot to be desired. "We are fans of spontaneous artistic expression, but only when done with skill and creativity and with respect to the surroundings and others' artistry." The group said they planned to restore the painting free of charge. Stan Laurel was born in Argyll Street, Ulverston, in June 1890, the son of a showman, before going on to star in 106 films with his partner Oliver Hardy.

It was during that modern masterpiece there was one momentous moment, carried off by Paul Cattermole. During his four seconds of 'Paul's getting down on the floor', he managed to throw some shapes that David Brent would have been proud of. Inevitably, his dancing was soon being compared to the genius of Ricky Gervais' character. During Newsbeat's chat with the band, we brought up the comparison and Paul gave a wide, cheeky smile. "Fair play," he said. "I saw another Vine which had me and him side-by-side. There is a massive similarity between the two things. There is!" To date, a Vine of the clip has had more than 300-thousand loops. Tina chipped in: "Can I say that is my favourite bit from Friday. Paul's little 'Paul's getting down on the floor' dance." Bradley too: "My mate called me up saying that Paul's bit was wicked too." When we asked Paul whether he could actually carry out the action from S Club Party, he told us that in his "old, geriatric age" he "can't really get down anymore."

At Oxford Island on the lough's southern tip, flood waters are knee-deep and several business properties have been badly damaged. One MLA has said the Northern Ireland Executive must give more help to businesses damaged by floods. A warning is in place from the Met Office for more heavy rain on Wednesday night and businesses at Kinnego Marina at Lough Neagh say they are worried they would face more problems. The firms employ 20 people and are unable to trade due to floods at their premises. The water level in Lough Neagh is controlled by flood gates at Toomebridge in County Antrim, which the Rivers Agency has said have been fully opened since early November. But business owners at Kinnego Marina have said they want to know if that was done in advance of recent severe storms so that the lough could accommodate the additional water. One man, Paul Quinn, said his business was "inoperable" and he had not seen the water level as high in over 40 years. "This is going to take us months to clean up and get back on track again, and this is our busiest time of year," he said. "It's really going to have a big effect on all four businesses. "Our biggest predicament is the rainfall coming later this evening and tomorrow morning. "And if the wind rises, we're going to get a wave effect off the lough, and that's really worrying us." The SDLP's Dolores Kelly said an emergency executive meeting was needed to discuss how to help business across Northern Ireland affected by floods. She said she had contacted government agencies to get help for the traders at Kinnego Marina but was told that "commercial properties were well down the pecking order" when it came to receiving assistance. The businesses had lost stock worth "tens of thousands" of pounds, she said, and one of the shops had recently spent £10,000 on renovations. "These businessmen have invested in these properties and they really are distraught as to what they're going to get in terms of help today and coping with the aftermath when [flood waters] recede," Ms Kelly said. "I find it incomprehensible that in GB, [Prime Minister David] Cameron on St Stephen's Day held an emergency meeting regarding the floods in Cumbria, but it's my understanding that the next executive meeting isn't until 21 January. "I've called on the executive to release additional funding to help commercial properties." David Porter of the Rivers Agency said "repeated winter storms" were putting pressure on the lough and its outlets. "The gates have been opened fully since early in November to let as much water out of the system as we possibly can," he said. "But more rain keeps falling within the catchment."

The Exiles have not won in six home matches this season, are bottom of League Two and host leaders Plymouth Argyle on Saturday. "It's up to us to step up to the plate," said Westley, who managed Peterborough in League One last season. "The home record over the last couple of years hasn't been good and we need to start putting that straight." Saturday's opponents Plymouth are three points clear at the top of the table having won nine of their 13 league games this season. "Our home needs to be a place that people fear coming to and it will be," Westley, who succeeded the sacked Warren Feeney on 7 October, told BBC Wales Sport. "With respect to any team in League Two, they're a League Two team. Last year I faced some big clubs in League One and there were some really tough challenges. "We're in League Two facing League Two opponents and of course we must not underestimate them - but we must not overestimate them. "We've got a lot of experience and good quality players here and I'm sure we're capable of playing like a top of the league team." Newport conceded in the 80th minute as they lost 1-0 to Yeovil in Westley's first game in charge of the club, but the 48-year-old is confident letting in late goals will not become a habit. "My sides are notorious for being strong late on and scoring lots of late winners," he added. "They're certainly not notorious for conceding late goals, so it won't be an issue." 3 July 2017 Last updated at 16:51 BST So if you are one of the lucky few who got tickets for day one, it's not surprising you'd be pretty happy about it.

The pictures show the north and south poles of the gas giant - images that no previous mission has managed to show in such detail. Juno took the images last weekend as it made its first close pass of the planet since it went into orbit in July.

He told Newsround: "We're learning about the formation of Jupiter and that's really important for the formation of the Solar System as a whole." Juno's quest is to investigate the secrets of the Solar System by finding out more about its biggest planet - Jupiter. The spacecraft is currently flying around Jupiter on a course that takes 53 days to complete. The 20-year-old was three spots outside automatic qualification when the entry lists were released earlier this month. But Frenchman Gasquet, the world number nine, has pulled out with a back injury.

Jordan Lee Francois, who was freed from Wandsworth jail on Thursday, was found in Edmonton, north London at 05:35 GMT, the Metropolitan Police said. The Ministry of Justice earlier confirmed the 18-year-old had been released "in error". Police had offered a £10,000 reward for information leading to Mr Francois's arrest. The MoJ said: "Releases in error are a very rare but regrettable occurrence. "The number of incidents have fallen significantly in recent years with figures down by a quarter compared to 2009-10, but every incident is taken extremely seriously and we are not complacent." A European court upheld a 2013 ruling that said the MacCoffee trademark of a Singaporean company, Future Enterprises, was invalid. It said that MacCoffee unfairly benefited from the branding of the US burger giant. The move could make it tricky for any other company to use the "Mac" or "Mc" prefix for food or beverages. The court agreed with McDonald's that MacCoffee's branding would be wrongly linked to that of the US burger giant. It said the use of the "Mac" by Future Enterprises in its products would "associate that trademark with the McDonald's "Mc" family of trade marks and mentally establish a link between the trade marks at issue". "It is highly probable that MacCoffee rides on the coat-tails of McDonald's in order to benefit from its power of attraction, its reputation and its prestige, and exploits, without paying any financial compensation," the judgement said. The judgement said that members of the public could establish a link between the trademarks of the two businesses "and could transfer the image of the McDonald's trademarks to the goods covered by MacCoffee". The ruling was regarded as positive for McDonald's. "The court's judgement is very favourable to McDonald's as it's saying that the Singapore company is gaining from its reflected glory," said Chris McLeod, director at the Institute of Trade Mark Attorneys. The MacCoffee trademark was registered in 2010 by the European Union Intellectual Property Office, but McDonald's applied to have the trademark named invalid on the basis of the similarity to its main EU trademark and 12 other trademarks that McDonald's uses in the jurisdiction. MacCoffee still sells its products in some EU cities, and the judgement does not prevent it from doing so, but the US burger giant may take steps to prevent it doing so, McLeod said. "They've [successfully] applied to knock it off the register and that opens the door for a claim or request to cease the use of the prefixes."

Andrew Main, 47, pleaded guilty to four counts of arson at a hearing at Oxford Crown Court. Main, of Rokemarsh near Wallingford, pleaded not guilty to a further charge of arson with intent to endanger life. South Oxfordshire District Council's office, an undertakers and a thatched cottage were set alight on 15 January. At their peak, 27 crews were tackling the fires in Rokemarsh and Crowmarsh Gifford which started within 10 minutes of each other shortly after 03:00 GMT. No-one was hurt. In the first blaze, Jean Gladstone, 80, escaped unhurt from her thatched cottage on Quakers Corner in Rokemarsh. Minutes later, a second fire was reported at Howard Chadwick Funeral Service in the village of Crowmarsh Gifford. The third blaze engulfed the nearby council offices. No explanation as to why Main started the fires was given in court, though at the time there were suggestions it was in connection with a planning row. It was revealed in court that he has mental health issues. A decision on whether a trial will proceed over the count of arson with intent to endanger life will be made next month. He has been remanded in custody. Main set the fires using gas cylinders. The burnt-out wreckage of a car that ploughed in to the council building moments before it became engulfed in flames was found in the foyer. Gas canisters were found at all three fire sites as well as at Main's home. Four hundred staff worked at the offices. The fire completely destroyed the planning department and badly affected the environmental health department and housing department. Planning applications and comments submitted in the days before the fire were destroyed and had to be resubmitted The complex also housed about two-thirds of the Vale of the White Horse District Council's staff. The authorities' websites were also temporarily offline after the blaze. The funeral parlour reopened last month following £100,000 of repair work. The council has been operating out of Vale of the White Horse District Council offices in Abingdon since the fire. Staff are due to move into rented offices in Milton Park, Didcot at the end of May. Fourteen people died and another 49 were injured on Monday afternoon. St Petersburg is the second largest city in Russia. The explosion happened as the train travelled between two underground stations. The driver continued to the next stop, which allowed passengers to be helped more easily by emergency services. His actions have been praised as helping to save further lives. Russia's emergency services quickly arrived on the scene and took people to hospital. The St Petersburg metro system was shut down and three days of mourning were declared. Another device was found at a different metro station, but was safely defused. The Russian government has said it is introducing extra security measures. Details are still coming out about who was behind the bomb. The Russian Prime Minister, Dmitry Medvedev, has described the explosion as a "terrorist act", but officials say they are investigating all other possibilities too. So far, no group has said it carried out the attack. Russian authorities have said they have identified a suspect, who is thought to have also died in the explosion. The Russian President Vladimir Putin was in St Petersburg - his home city - when the blast happened. He visited the scene on Monday evening and laid flowers at a makeshift shrine. People lit candles and placed flowers at the entrance to the metro station following the incident. A service was held at a chapel in Russia's capital city Moscow, with prayers for those affected by the blast. Many world leaders have condemned the attack. UK Prime Minister Theresa May said she had written to President Putin to offer her condolences. "I'm very clear, as the people of the UK were after the attack in London, that we will prevail. The terrorists will not win." The White House said US President Donald Trump had spoken to Mr Putin by phone and offered "full support" in bringing those responsible to justice.

Officers carried out door to door inquiries and reviewed CCTV after Mr McLaren was reported missing from his Letham home on 25 February. His body was recovered on 8 April in the river near to the Friarton Bridge after police were alerted. Mr McLaren's family said that he would be greatly missed and they were understandably upset by their loss. The chancellor announced a package of measures in the March Budget, including a cap for the most vulnerable firms who were facing huge hikes in their bills. Business rates are a property tax based on rental values. Changes to the rates came in in April after a revaluation of property values for England and Wales last year. Although most businesses overall have seen their bills either stay the same or decrease, the government was forced to act following reports that some small companies faced rate rises of up to 3,000%. These are the so called "cliff edge" businesses which Philip Hammond promised to help. He announced that firms losing small business rate relief - a discount given to businesses with properties below a certain rateable value - would not see their bills increase by more than £50 a month. The government set aside £25m this year to pay for the pledge. Whitstable florist Jane Antoniades felt a huge wave of relief when she heard her rates bill would not go up by more than £50 a month, having faced a 353% increase over five years. But nearly three months on since the start of the new tax regime in April, she's still waiting for her bill to be adjusted. "So far I've had to pay £437.08 per month, instead of just over £200. It's a huge difference. "We haven't got the capacity to pay this extra money. It's going to have a real impact on our business if we can't claw this money back soon and start paying the right amount," says Jane. She's not alone. According to rates specialist, CVS, 24,986 small businesses have lost all, or part, of their small business rates relief. Despite Mr Hammond's announcement, the money has yet to flow to most, if not all, of these businesses which are in need of the greatest support. So why the delay? For starters, the government's U-turn on rates was announced after the new bills were already printed and just days before they were posted. Canterbury Council said it was working to update its system to enable new bills to be sent out. But councils across England have told the BBC that they are awaiting further guidance from the Department for Communities and Local Government (DCLG). Although local authorities are legally able to go ahead and adjust existing bills, without the necessary published guidance from government they have no guarantee they will receive the money back from Whitehall. And the general election has held things up. "A common sense approach here is needed," says Mark Rigby, Chief Executive of CVS. "The money to help those most in need is coming from the government and there is no reason why revised tax demands shouldn't have been sent out by local councils by now. "These delays are simply causing panic, confusion and alarm for small firms," Councils have been left in limbo and have been pushing the government for guidance. But within the last few days, the DCLG has reportedly written to local authority chief financial officers in England with the necessary paperwork. A Local Government Association spokesperson said: "After receiving guidance, councils have now been able to begin working with businesses in their local areas to identify those eligible for this new discretionary relief funding." A spokesperson for the DCLG also confirmed that help should soon be on the way. "We have also published guidance on the additional relief available to support small businesses and have encouraged local authorities to inform businesses that are eligible as soon as possible." That can't come soon enough for Jane and her small flower shop. Like other rate payers, she's got another big bill in the next few days. "How long are they going to hold on to my money? "We need this relief now. The rates system is such a problem for the whole High Street, and it's small independent traders who are bearing the brunt." Bolasie, 27, injured his right knee during the Toffees' 1-1 draw with Manchester United on 4 December. Dutch manager Koeman said on Wednesday: "It will be around 11-12 months before he is back.

Tommy McGlinchey said a fire crew took more than an hour to find the hydrant close to his plant near Londonderry. He said he is angry with the Stormont department responsible for cutting grass along public roads. He is now facing a £400,000 repair bill as a result of the delay, he claimed. A fire started at his Brickkiln Waste Ltd site on Heather Road on Tuesday 7 July, in a building containing a shredding machine, waste paper and cardboard. Mr McGlinchey told BBC Radio Ulster's Stephen Nolan Show that he had to use a digger to scrape overgrowth from the hydrant along the roadside for firefighters to find and access it. "It took them an hour, hour-and-a-half for them to connect to [the hydrant], and in the meantime the fire brigade couldn't deal with the fire properly," he said. Had the grass along the verge been cut, he said, "the fire could've been out, saved us a lot of money and probably saved jobs, too". He added that the fire service was "not to blame" for being unable to find the hydrant. However, it is the responsibility of the Northern Ireland Fire and Rescue Service (NIFRS) to "inspect fire hydrants periodically". In response to a freedom of information request last year, NIFRS said it has a "rolling programme of hydrant inspections", and "endeavours to inspect high-risk sites annually where possible". NIFRS reports fire hydrants that require attention to Northern Ireland Water, which then carries out the work. But maintenance of the ground and vegetation around fire hydrants does not fall within NI Water's remit. The responsibility for grass-cutting along roadsides lies with Transport NI, a body within the Department for Regional Development (DRD). Transport NI has had its budget cut from about £40m to £12.8m, and an internal document seen by the BBC last month revealed that grass verges will only be cut once a year. DRD told the BBC it would be "happy to respond to any requests for assistance" from NIFRS regarding overgrowth at hydrants. A spokeswoman for the department said that there was "no budget available" for grass-cutting. But she said DRD Minister Danny Kennedy had given the go-ahead for one cut this year because "he cannot allow road safety related maintenance to be stopped". Mr McGlinchey described the situation as "ridiculous". "This could've been a building with people in it, and the fire engines couldn't get the water. They need to sort this out," he said. "I would advise them to take another look at it. It's dangerous." UKIP MLA David McNarry, who sits on Stormont's regional development committee, said he had warned about the dangers caused by the cutbacks to roadside maintenance. "The risks are far too great to put lives and property bottom of the list," he said. "We have verges looking like jungles and weeds growing like triffids. "[The department] needs to identify, with the fire service, where these hydrants are, particularly in rural areas, and they need to tend to them. "They need to move now to prevent serious loss of lives." Oliver McMullan, a Sinn Féin MLA, said more compensation claims for damage caused as a result of reduction to road maintenance would to be inevitable. "If the minister doesn't stop and turn around his policy, we're going to be spending more and more of his budget in the courtrooms instead of out on the roads."

A Swansea version would go on the civic centre site and form part of the city centre's £500m regeneration. It is being explored between Swansea council, Swansea University and site developers Trebor. This site would also include a national public aquarium, an aquatic science research facility and a science gallery. "The Cube at the Queensland University of Technology in Brisbane has been phenomenally successful, bringing science to life by using 21st Century interactive, unlimited multi-touch technology for the benefit of local schools, communities and visitors," said council leader Rob Stewart. "We're exploring the potential to introduce something similar on the seafront in Swansea. "This proposal would attract many thousands of visitors, open up jobs, benefit Swansea residents of all ages, and help keep talented Swansea University graduates in Swansea." Swansea University's Prof Chris Allton said: "The university's fascinating research into marine life, climate change, computer technology and a host of other activities could be explored by using innovative, ground-breaking technology like that developed in The Cube. The opportunities are endless." The other part of the city centre regeneration has gone out to public consultation. Residents are being asked to give their views on the St David's site which has been renamed Swansea Central. It will include a digital arena, cinema, cafes, restaurants, shops, a hotel and apartments. A public exhibition took place in the city centre at the weekend.

The world champion beat team-mate Nico Rosberg by 0.543secs in a breathless final few minutes on a drying track. Rosberg will start sixth after a grid penalty for a gearbox change following a crash in practice. That moves Force India's Nico Hulkenberg up to second on the grid. McLaren's Jenson Button qualified fifth but will start third. Reaction: Drivers split over kerbs after crashes Button benefitted from Ferrari's Sebastian Vettel also being penalised five places on the grid for an unauthorised gearbox change. The mixed-up grid promises an exciting race, with Rosberg and Vettel coming through the field, Button trying to hold on to his position and the Ferrari and Red Bull drivers starting the race on the super-soft tyre rather than the ultra-soft tyre of everyone else in the top 10. As long as it doesn't rain... Ferrari's Kimi Raikkonen was sixth fastest ahead of Red Bull's Daniel Ricciardo, and they will be promoted to fourth and fifth on the grid. The rest of the top 10 was occupied by Williams' Valtteri Bottas, Red Bull's Max Verstappen and Williams' Felipe Massa. "It was a really fun session, said Hamilton. "Those sessions that start dry and then go wet, and here it dries up so quickly." Button, who excelled as always in the ever-changing conditions in a final session that started wet but dried enough for slicks halfway through, predicted that it would be a "tough day" because the teams lacked knowledge about the tyres. His team-mate Fernando Alonso will be quietly fuming, after being sent out by mistake on used tyres for the one lap he got in second qualifying, on which he was inevitably 0.6secs slower than Button. Attempts to improve on new tyres were thwarted by yellow caution flags and then rain, and the Spaniard will start 14th. "Really happy," said Button. "Those mixed conditions are tough. When you have to find your feet every corner you get to, it is a lot of fun." The rain, which hit in the closing minutes of the second part of qualifying, was only one reason for the high-octane action. Another was a further two suspension failures, for Force India's Sergio Perez and Toro Rosso's Daniil Kvyat, following Rosberg's crash in final practice for the same reason. Perez managed to get back to the pits but Kvyat, whose suspension failed on the exit of Turn Eight, had a heavy crash from which he emerged unhurt. The failures appear to have been caused by excessive loads caused by a new kerb design at the Red Bull Ring. Kvyat has called for the kerbs to be changed. The Russian said: "Once you're on those kerbs you're not in control if the suspension breaks. At least on the AstroTurf, you had control. "At the last corner, everyone is going off [with] four wheels - they wanted to make it better but actually they made it worse." Hamilton added on the kerbs issue: "For me, looking at it, obviously those yellow kerbs are quite dangerous, we have now seen a couple of incidents. "I don't know how many more it will take before someone ends up in the wall and gets hurt. "The idea is good because we don't want to be off the circuit but perhaps another solution is needed."

None of the 10 ethnic minority candidates standing in Wales for one the four parties with MPs at Westminster is in a seat where their party came first or second in 2010. No black or Asian MP has ever been elected in Wales. Race Council Cymru chair Ray Singh said Wales was "still staggering behind". The candidates from a BAME (Black, Asian and minority ethnic) background include five Lib Dems, three Conservatives, two Plaid Cymru and none from Labour. UKIP refused to provide details. The ratio of BAME candidates - one in 16 - is slightly better than the one in 20 of the Welsh population of BAME heritage recorded by the 2011 Census. But Mr Singh said BAME candidates should be given more winnable seats. "Wales is a multicultural, multiracial country and we need inclusiveness," he said. Labour's deputy health minister Vaughan Gething - one of two BAME assembly members - said: "We haven't broadened or deepened our pool of talent that's available to realistically be selected and elected." A Welsh Conservative spokeswoman said they had three "fantastic" BAME candidates "campaigning hard for victory". Plaid Cymru chair Dafydd Trystan said the party was "welcoming and open to new members from all backgrounds" but added there was "more to be done specifically in those communities that aren't so politically engaged". Welsh Lib Dems equalities spokesman Peter Black said his party had more BAME candidates in Wales than the other major parties, but added "there's so much more we can do", pointing to a leadership programme to encourage candidates from under-represented backgrounds. UKIP Wales said it did not carry out diversity monitoring of its candidates, saying it wanted opportunities "to go to people based solely on merit". There were 333 primary and secondary schools in the top "green" category in 2015, up from 236 in 2014. "Red" schools, those needing the most improvement, fell from 81 to 58. But a group of north Wales primaries have claimed the system unfairly penalises small schools, where the performance of a single child can see a school judged in need of improvement. Under the system, schools are placed in one of four categories - green, yellow, amber or red - reflecting the levels of support needed. Click here for green Click here for yellow Click here for amber Click here for red Education Minister Huw Lewis said: "This is not about crude league tables or labelling schools - it is about directing the right support to schools that need it and ensuring improvements right across our school system. "Ultimately it is about raising standards and supporting our schools to self improve. "Categorisation is also a system that delivers for all learners. Schools cannot just rely on the performance of their top students as any school performing below the agreed minimum standard for its free school meal pupils will not be put into the green category." David Evans, secretary of teaching union NUT Cymru, welcomed the results as a "snapshot", but warned: "We shouldn't make any specific judgements on the basis of categorisation results alone. "Schools in the green category may still need support in certain areas, while there is undoubtedly excellent teaching and learning taking place within aspects of those schools placed in yellow, amber and red. "We must see categorization as part of the wider evaluation of schools, and more specifically as a way of identifying what support is needed, rather than a simple mechanism for judgement." The Welsh Conservatives' Shadow Education Minister Angela Burns said: "In many ways, these rankings tell us what we already know, and what Estyn said earlier this week - that the gap between schools doing well and those that are not is too wide. "Indeed, the performance of secondary schools across Wales remains worryingly inconsistent." Plaid Cymru education spokesman Simon Thomas urged Labour ministers to give underperforming schools the help they needed. "It is concerning that some schools identified as needing help last year seem to remain stubbornly stuck and not improving, and also that other schools, even with support, have declined," he said. Liberal Democrat AM Aled Roberts said: "The new system is certainly an improvement on banding [the previous process] but it still does not take into account variations within a specific school. "A green grade overall can mask any number of shortcomings in individual departments in the same way as a red grade can mask examples of excellence in a school."

The lack of black and Asian MPs in Wales is a "huge problem" which the parties need to take seriously, a race equality campaigner has said. [NEXT_CONCEPT] More schools have been rated as performing well in the second year of a colour-coded rating system.

Richard David Curtis, 57, from Bawtry, South Yorkshire, was stopped at the Port of Dover in November 2013. He failed to attend trial at Maidstone Crown Court in November 2016 and was found guilty of evading more than £1.3m in excise duty. He was jailed for three years nine months in his absence. More on this and other Yorkshire stories A total of 5,729,900 cigarettes were found hidden under boxes of chips in Curtis' HGV. He told customs officers in Dover he had spent the weekend in Belgium before collecting the food, and was unaware the lorry contained illicit cigarettes. A warrant was issued for his arrest after he failed to appear at court. Curtis has links to Doncaster, the South Yorkshire area and Nottinghamshire. HM Revenue and Customs (HMRC) are appealing for anyone who knows where he is to contact 0800 595 000. Alan Tully, of the HMRC fraud unit, said: "Richard Curtis gambled with his liberty in a brazen bid to profit from smuggling illicit cigarettes into the UK. "He lost and now he must face up to his crime and come forward to begin his time behind bars." Mr Gaburici had earlier demanded that the prosecutor-general resign, along with top bank officials, after $1bn (£645m) disappeared from three banks. Many Moldovans live in dire poverty. Mr Gaburici only became PM in February. "The issue of my school diploma... will be removed from the agenda," he said, announcing his resignation on TV. Moldova, an ex-Soviet state, signed a far-reaching association agreement with the EU in 2014, angering Russia. Moldova, bordering on Ukraine, is one of Europe's poorest countries and has been plagued by political instability. The capital Chisinau saw angry demonstrations in May when news of the banking scandal broke. Pro-Russian separatists have run a breakaway region, Trans-Dniester, since a war with Moldova in the 1990s, and they have Russian backing. Mr Gaburici was appointed to head a minority coalition government, formed by two pro-EU parties. "I would like the government to focus on the fight against corruption, depoliticisation of all institutions and on ensuring the security of the financial and banking sector," he said in his resignation address. On Monday prosecutors said they suspected that a signature and a stamp on two of his school documents had been forged. In May, an Israeli-born businessman, Ilan Shor, was placed under house arrest in connection with the $1bn that went missing from Unibank, Banca Sociala and Banca de Economii. Details of the alleged scam were contained in a report by the financial consultancy Kroll, leaked in April. The missing amount is equivalent to one-eighth of Moldova's national output (GDP).

The former environment minister demanded the secret ballot by Tory members in South Suffolk after the association's committee voted not to re-adopt him as a candidate. Mr Yeo promised his "unqualified support" to his successor. The result of the count comes three days after fellow Tory MP Anne McIntosh was deselected. David Cameron had backed Mr Yeo, saying he would be a "great loss". The 68-year-old, an MP since 1983, was cleared last year of breaking parliamentary rules on lobbying. He stood aside temporarily as chairman of the Commons Energy and Climate Committee while an investigation was carried out following a newspaper story. Mr Yeo returned to the role, but the executive committee of the South Suffolk Conservative Association voted in December against re-adopting him as a candidate. Reports suggest this reflected frustration among some members that he had not devoted enough time to the constituency while the standards inquiry was going on. But Mr Yeo, who said he was proud of his career and happy to be judged on his record, challenged the committee's verdict. This led to a postal vote by the association's 600 members, which was counted on Monday afternoon at Conservative headquarters in London. Party sources said there had been an 82% turnout in the ballot, but refused to give details of the margin of defeat. After the result was announced, Mr Yeo said the vote had been "on a knife edge". On his disagreements with activists, he told BBC Radio 4's PM: "There were a number of individual issues where I took a very strong view on principle and will continue to do so." Mr Yeo, who is in favour of the UK remaining in the European Union and a strong believer in climate change, said some of his opinions were "not widely supported". He said: "It has been a privilege to serve as MP for South Suffolk since 1983. I will continue to work for all my constituents until the general election next year. "I am immensely grateful to all those Conservative Party members who voted for me to continue as their MP. "I now ask them all to campaign for my successor with the same loyalty and dedication they have shown to me. I will give my full and unqualified support to whoever is chosen as the candidate here in South Suffolk. I wish him or her every success." Mr Yeo also served as a minister in the Home Office, Foreign Office and Department of Health in John Major and Margaret Thatcher's governments in the 1980s and 1990s. He won the Suffolk South seat with an 8,689 majority at the last general election. Toby Kramers, chairman of South Suffolk Conservative Association, said: "This has been a difficult time for the association. Our priority now is to work together for success in the European elections later this year." A Conservative spokesman said selection for the South Suffolk constituency, which was created in 1983 as a result of boundary changes, would "be opened in due course". For Labour, shadow Cabinet Office minister Jon Ashworth said the vote was "a blow to David Cameron's credibility" after he expressed his support for the MP. Last week, Ms McIntosh lost a vote of confidence among Conservative members in Thirsk and Malton, following a long-running dispute with constituency officials. She insisted she still planned to run again for Parliament at the 2015 general election as an independent. Reacting to the spate of de-selections, Conservative MEP Daniel Hannan tweeted that they were a recognition by activists that "there's a better candidate out there". 7 April 2017 Last updated at 08:39 BST The attacks were aimed at forces that support Syria's President Assad.

It said average electricity prices would rise by 14.9% from 28 April for 2.8 million customers. However, it will keep its gas prices unchanged. As a result, SSE said a typical dual fuel customer would see their annual bill rise by 6.9%, or £73. It blamed the increase on government policies that mean customers subsidise energy from renewable sources and the cost of smart meter installation. Other government-imposed costs include subsidising the feed-in tariff scheme for home owners that install solar panels on their roofs. SSE said the electricity price rise was its first for three and half years. Four of the other big six suppliers have already announced price rises this year, while British Gas has held prices until August. Will Morris, SSE's managing director for retail, said he "deeply regretted" having to put prices up. "This is the first increase since 2013 ... we have seen significant increases in electricity costs, which are outside our control," he said. "Without an increase we would have been supplying electricity to domestic customers at a loss." SSE said that 85% of its customers were on its standard variable tariffs, so they will be affected by April's price rise. Last December, industry regulator Ofgem published figures showing how much money customers could save by moving from a standard variable tariff to their supplier's cheapest fixed tariff. For SSE customers that was £98 a year. Earlier this month the FTSE 100-listed company had to apologise to a number of customers whose smart meters had been reporting astonishingly high rogue readings for their electricity use. There are around 20 million customers on standard tariffs - mostly with one of the big suppliers. With SSE's price rise, those customers now know how their bills will be hit in the months ahead. Most will see price rises - that is a political headache for a government worried about families that are just about managing. There has been speculation that ministers could intervene in the energy market, perhaps by extending the price cap coming in for pre-payment meter customers. Citizens Advice want households that receive the government's Warm Home Discount scheme to be protected from price rises too. Whether intervention is on the table should become clearer later this year when the government publishes its official response to the energy market investigation being undertaken by the Competition and Markets Authority.

Chief executive Carlos Ghosn met prime minister Theresa May earlier amid fears over the future of its production plant in Sunderland. He has hinted investment at Sunderland could cease unless compensation is paid for any adverse impact after Brexit. The Sunderland plant, which opened in 1986, employs almost 7,000 people. Mr Ghosn arrived at Downing Street in a black Qashqai, a model made in Sunderland. After the meeting, which lasted about an hour, Mr Ghosn said: "We want to ensure that this high-performing, high-employment factory remains competitive globally and continues to deliver for our business and for Britain. "Following our productive meeting, I am confident the government will continue to ensure the UK remains a competitive place to do business. I look forward to continued positive collaboration between Nissan and the UK Government." Mrs May added: "This government is committed to creating and supporting the right conditions for the automotive industry to go from strength to strength in the UK, now and into the future." The Sunderland factory, opened by then prime minister Margaret Thatcher, produces about 500,000 Juke, Qashqai and Leaf vehicles a year - a third of the UK's total car manufacturing. Speaking at the Paris Motor Show in August, Mr Ghosn said that "important investment decisions will not be made in the dark". He said: "If I need to make an investment in the next few months and I can't wait until the end of Brexit, then I have to make a deal with the UK Government. "You can have commitments of compensation in case you have something negative. If there are tax barriers being established on cars, you have to have a commitment for car-makers who export to Europe that there is some kind of compensation." Earlier, Nissan said Friday's meeting sought to provide "an aligned way forward" for the company and the UK Government. Nissan, which is due to decide early next year on where to build its next Qashqai sport utility vehicle, is part-owned by French manufacturer Renault, raising concerns that production could be moved to France to avoid any tariffs which could be introduced on exports to the EU if the UK leaves the single market in a so-called "hard Brexit". In the 23 June referendum, the people of Sunderland voted to leave the European Union, with 61% backing the Leave campaign. Across the whole of the UK, 52% voted to leave the EU. The scheme includes a bus station, 1,000-space multi-storey car park and footbridge. It also now includes plans to build a temporary bus station while the new one is constructed. The council says the plans, going before the planning committee in May, will "revitalise the city centre". The project has received £11m of funding from the Department for Transport and £2m of Greater Lincolnshire Local Economic Partnership funding. The council has said it will borrow the additional £16m needed. Irna quoted Tehran prosecutor general Abbas Jafari-Dowlatabadi as saying the suspect had "been active in the economic field, related to Iran". He did not name the individual. However, the UK Foreign Office said it was seeking information following the "reported detention of a dual Iranian-British national in Iran". Iran's Revolutionary Guards have detained at least six other dual nationals since last year and accused them of security-related offences. They include the British-Iranian charity worker Nazanin Zaghari-Ratcliffe, who was arrested at Tehran's airport in April as she tried to return to the UK after a holiday with her two-year-old daughter, Gabriella. Her husband Richard Ratcliffe told the BBC on Monday that the allegation that she was involved in trying to overthrow the regime in Iran was "absurd". Mr Jafari-Dowlatabadi announced last month that Ms Zaghari-Ratcliffe faced trial by a Revolutionary Court - a closed-door tribunal which handles security-related cases - along with US-Iranian businessman Siamak Namazi, Canadian-Iranian academic Homa Hoodfar and Nizar Zakka, a Lebanese permanent resident of the US. Iran does not recognise dual nationality, which prevents relevant foreign diplomats gaining access to citizens being detained.

Police suspect Simon Knights, 38, may be using the rail network to move around committing burglaries before getting the train home. Five police forces - Sussex, Hampshire, Kent, Essex and the Metropolitan Police - have been looking for him. Surrey Police has joined the hunt after linking him to a burglary in Guildford. Thousands of pounds worth of jewellery has been stolen in more than a dozen break-ins that police suspect Mr Knights is responsible for in Sussex, Hampshire, Kent, London and Essex. Reward It is thought he is stealing cash and jewellery to fund a gambling addiction, police said. A £2,500 reward is being offered for information that leads to the arrest and conviction of him for at least one of the offences. Det Insp Dave Wardley-Wilkins, of Sussex Police, said: "People might see him on trains along the south coast, possibly smartly dressed. He has links to Essex so could have returned there. "In the CCTV recorded in Surrey, he appears to have hurt his arm, possibly while he was breaking the window. We believe he then got a train to Wimbledon but do not know where he went from there." Police said the he is white, about 5' 8" with ginger hair and blue eyes. The Blue Square Bet Premier side have struck a three-year-deal to move to the home of Newport Gwent Dragons regional rugby side and Newport Rugby Club. "This is huge for Newport County Football Club and for the town," said Newport County chairman Chris Blight. Blight revealed that County had negotiated a break-clause which allowed them to move back to Spytty Park. "The fact it has all come together after several months of trying to do so is really a feather in everybody's caps," said Blight. "We have three institutions here - we have got Newport Rugby Club, with a regional side as tenants and now Newport County. "There are plenty of examples around the country where two clubs are playing in a ground, but here we have three." It doesn't really matter which game is being watched whether it is rugby or football Blight had called County's Spytty Park pitch "not fit for purpose" and wanted to move to the home of Newport Gwent Dragons and Newport rugby teams. He admitted the three sporting teams had struck a unique deal to play at the same 11,000-capacity venue for at least the next three years but hopes to make Rodney Parade a permanent home. The football club has the safety net of an agreement with Newport City Council, which owns Spytty Park, to return to their former ground for the 2013-14 season if the groundshare does not work out. "There is a rugby club with a stand which needs bums on seats," said Blight. "You want to fill that stand as often as you can, it doesn't really matter which game is being watched whether it is rugby or football. "They need a turnover to go through the club and it is a beautiful stand and I am sure it would be a great shame if it wasn't full on more occassions. The Rodney Parade pitch has had its own problems and the Dragons have been punished by LV= Cup organisers for calling off their game with Saracens because of a frozen pitch, while flooding has also affected the playing surface this season. But County have been forced to rearrange a number of home games as their pitch has struggled to cope with the inclement weather.

The website Moneyfacts said the average interest rate on the top ten savings accounts has risen from 1.39% a year ago, to 1.48% now. But increasingly providers are placing tighter restrictions on how many times you can take cash out of such accounts. In some cases, savers are only allowed to withdraw money three times a year. Moneyfacts is suggesting that the regulator - the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) - should investigate the matter. "Perhaps it's time the FCA started to look more closely at these restrictive accounts - transparency will only go so far after all," said Charlotte Nelson, a finance expert at Moneyfacts. After years of record low savings rates, Moneyfacts said the small rise in rates "restores hope" in the market. The change comes ahead of an expected rise in the Bank of England base rate, which most analysts predict will come in 2016. "However, while this is great news for any saver looking to maximise their returns, savers may be disappointed to find out that many accounts are now limiting access to their funds, with restrictions varying from a maximum of 150 withdrawals per year to just one," said Charlotte Nelson. Most providers do make the restrictions clear. Virgin Money - which allows three withdrawals a year - calls its account "Defined Access Saver". Chelsea Building Society - which also restricts withdrawals to three - markets its account as "Triple Access Saver". And the Nationwide has a "Limited Access Saver", which allows five withdrawals a year on the top savings rate. An FCA study into the cash savings market, published in January, found there were barriers to switching accounts. It found that 80% of easy access accounts had not been switched in the last three years.

"Our ambition of delivering a gold standard service is dependent on the generosity of the people, companies and organisations who support us, to whom we are very grateful."

The money will be used to increase production of the Mini at its factories in Oxford, Birmingham and Swindon. It comes on top of a £500m investment which was announced by BMW last June. More than 5000 British workers are involved in the production of the Mini. BMW said the investment showed its commitment to Britain "as a vital manufacturing base". "This investment is about securing jobs for the future," BMW's Graham Biggs told the BBC. "We tend to build cars where we sell them, so the UK is a very important market for us - about the fourth largest in the world - so building Minis, Rolls-Royces and engines here makes a great deal of sense. BMW said the investment would help its "international growth strategy" for the Mini as it introduced new models to the market. In January it launched the Mini Roadster, a convertible version of the Mini Coupe, the first two-seater Mini model. Both new cars are assembled at the main plant at Cowley, Oxford, which has produced more than two million Mini models since 2001. As well as extra investment at the Oxford plant, the money will be earmarked for expanding production capabilities at the steel body pressings plant in Swindon and BMW's engine plant at Hams Hall, in the West Midlands. However, BMW said that because of current capacity constraints at the Oxford plant, it was considering setting up "satellite production" of the Mini outside of the UK in the "medium term". "We need to look for a flexible partner to help us build the cars and we're considering a contract with a Dutch contract manufacturer," Mr Biggs said. The carmaker said it was in discussions with Nedcar, a subsidiary of Mitsubishi, to use its plant in Born, in the Netherlands. It will have spare capacity from 2013 following Mitsubishi's decision not to continue production of its Colt model there because of difficult economic conditions. BMW has said that the Oxford plant will remain "the home and heart" of the Mini and will provide specialist advice on establishing the new facility. The Punch Bowl stone on the A5183 St Albans Road was stolen in August 2012. A second stone was taken from opposite the Chequers pub, a mile further down the road near Redbourn, last month. Officers responding to reports it was now in Hemel Hempstead realised it was actually the first stone. The second was found hours later in Kings Langley. Hertfordshire Police said the first stone, which is 5ft 8ins (1.7m) tall and had stood close to the Punch Bowl Lane turning on Watling Street, was discovered by a member of the public in Dodds Lane on Friday morning. The second, which was taken between 15 and 27 March, was found just over six miles away in Barnes Lane, Kings Langley, again by a member of the public. A police spokesman said both would be "placed back in their rightful place at some point in the future". Sgt Tom Fisher said the first stone had probably been discarded after a police appeal about the second theft. "I suspect someone had it in their garden, saw the press [appeal] and probably thought 'I'm going to be in a bit of trouble' and dumped it to try and get rid of the evidence," he said. The force has asked for anyone who may have been in the areas where the stones were recovered to come forward if they had seen anything suspicious. Local historian Sandy Ross said the milestones between St Albans and Redbourn had been erected from 1722 onwards as a requirement of the Dunstable - St Albans - London Turnpike Act of Parliament. This allowed a private business to repair the roads but to make a charge to users based on the distance travelled. Mr Ross, who reported both thefts to police, called the finds a "happy outcome for our local heritage".

The masked man entered The Corner Shop, in Quarry Street, Coatbridge, and demanded money at about 10:05 on Saturday. The robber made off empty handed but a female member of staff was left badly shaken by the incident. The suspect is described as white and aged 24 to 35. He was wearing a blue hooded jacket and was carrying a bag. Officers are collecting CCTV footage and carrying out door-to-door inquiries. Det Con Scott McCracken said: "Our inquiries so far have revealed there were people around the shop at the time of the incident. "Coatdyke train station is also very close to the shop and we believe there were several people waiting for trains. "I am appealing to anyone who may have been at the station and who got on a train prior to police arrival to contact us, they may have vital information which could assist our investigation." It happened at Thomas Russell Park where it is understood she has been living with her young child for a number of years. Police said a 30-year-old man had been arrested by officers investigating the incident, which was reported on Friday. SDLP MP Margaret Ritchie said she hoped the woman would "fully recover from her injuries". She said people in the area "were in a state of shock" and "appalled" at what had happened. Ms Ritchie added that those people she had spoken to wanted to pass on their "sympathy and support" to the woman. The Constitutional Court has made the ruling, meaning Pistorius will now be sentenced in April. Pistorius killed Ms Steenkamp in February 2013 after firing four times through a locked toilet door. A manslaughter verdict was overturned in December and a murder verdict introduced in its place. Oscar Pistorius, fallen hero Analysis: Justice served South Africa's National Prosecuting Authority (NPA) said the Constitutional Court found "no prospect of success" in Pistorius' appeal. The case will now go back to Judge Thokozile Masipa - who cleared the athlete of murder in the original case - for sentencing on 18 April. Prosecutors are believed to be targeting a sentence of at least 15 years in jail for Pistorius. This is the end of the road for Oscar Pistorius. The Constitutional Court was his last chance to overturn his murder conviction. Many in the country felt that judge Thokozile Masipa had erred when she convicted him of a lesser charge, but some still believed Pistorius had not intended to kill anyone, let alone Reeva Steenkamp. Now a full bench of the country's most powerful judges has ruled that Pistorius' latest bid has no chance of succeeding. The next step now is for the two legal teams to present their arguments about the length of his sentence - and the state wants no less than 15 years. He is currently under house arrest after spending one year of his original five-year sentence in jail. In December, South Africa's Supreme Court of Appeal ruled that the lower court under Judge Masipa had not applied correctly the rule of dolus eventualis - whether Pistorius knew that a death would be a likely result of his actions. Justice Eric Leach said that having armed himself with a high-calibre weapon, Pistorius must have foreseen that whoever was behind the door might die, especially given his firearms training. Pistorius has always maintained he believed he was shooting at an intruder.

And they are arranging a ticket for Moses to watch the team's FA Cup final against Crystal Palace at Wembley next week. The fan, who works in security, said "he cried a lot" when the match was cancelled. "I was so disappointed and I cried right away and people come around me and hug me," he said. "I come far away from Sierra Leone. I come to watch this match and it doesn't happen." "This is my first time in real life to watch Manchester live and it doesn't happen." An "urgent" inquiry has been demanded after a dummy bomb used in a security exercise resulted in the 15:00 BST kick-off match being postponed. Fans were evacuated and a controlled explosion was carried out on the device, which police said was accidentally left at the 75,000 capacity stadium. Ian Stirling, vice chairman of MUST, said: "When we heard the game was abandoned we had to tell Moses and the poor lad was distraught - being so close to the ground and not being able to go in, not knowing when he might get this chance again. "He's still distraught at not getting in to Old Trafford. That was his dream. But we're trying to do the right thing for a friend." Manchester United said it was refunding all tickets for Sunday's game and allowing ticket holders from both clubs to watch Tuesday's re-arranged game for free. The king's coffin was lowered into a vault below the cathedral floor during a reinterment service on Thursday. A large piece of stone engraved with a deep cross lies on top of the tomb and 200 guests who won a ballot will be allowed to view it from 13:00 GMT. The cathedral will open its doors to the public after the unveiling service. The last Plantagenet king's remains were found beneath a Leicester car park in 2012. More than 20,000 people queued to see the coffin in the cathedral earlier this week and long queues are expected after the hour-long service. Rev Pete Hobson, acting Canon Missioner of Leicester Cathedral, said: "We'll welcome as many people as we can - just keep moving people and you'll all get a look." He added that the service would have a "lighter feel" than Thursday's ceremony, which was presided over by the Archbishop of Canterbury. "Thursday was a day for the nation, Friday is a day for Leicester and Leicestershire," he said. Later in the evening 8,000 candles will be lit in the city's Jubilee Square and Cathedral Gardens before a firework display on the cathedral roof. The two-tonne Swaledale fossil stone lies on a marble plinth, while the inlaid coat of arms is made of marble and semi-precious stones. The reburial has not been without controversy. Campaigners who petitioned for Richard III to be reburied in York have described the events in Leicester over the last week as a "pantomime". Richard, the last English king to die in battle, was killed at Bosworth Field in 1485, at the end of the Wars of the Roses.

The result means they are now three points off Group B leaders FUS Rabat and two points behind the other Moroccan side, second placed Kawkab Marrakech. Only the group winners and runners-up will qualify for the semi-finals. After a barren first half in Sousse, Etoile found their stride after the break. Alaya Brigui scored twice - in the 57th and 68th minutes - before a goal from Ahmed Akaichi sealed maximum points. The result keeps Etoile in the hunt for a place in the last four, following FUS Rabat's 3-1 win away to fellow Moroccans Kawkab Marrakech on Friday night which put FUS top of the table. Until Friday, Kawkab Marrakech had won all five of their Caf home matches this year, and the defeat to their Moroccan rivals relegated them to second in Group B. Youssef El Gnaoui put FUS Rabat ahead early on from the penalty spot, with Mohamed El Fakih also hitting a first-half penalty to level the score at 1-1. Second half goals from captain Abdessalam Benjelloun and Mohamed Fouzair put FUS Rabat in firm control as they secured a well earned victory. On Sunday, there was one Group A match with favourites TP Mazembe maintaining their unbeaten run with a goalless draw at Mouloudia Bejaia of Algeria. That means DR Congo giants Mazembe have seven points from three games so far, and seem certain to take one of the places in the last four. In the other Group A match, Tanzania's Young Africans were held to a 1-1 draw by Ghanaian side Medeama on Saturday - a result which did little for either side's hopes of progressing out of the group. Scoring had been a problem for both teams, but it took just three minutes for the deadlock to be broken, when Donald Ngoma struck first for the hosts in Dar es Salaam. Medeama got their equaliser sixteen minutes later through Bernard Ofiri. The Colombian, who earns £265,000 a week, has scored three goals in 13 appearances since signing from Monaco in a £6m season-long loan in September. United have until May to activate a £40m buy-out clause. "He will play in one of the very best clubs in the world next season, whether that is Manchester United or not," said the 28-year-old's agent Jorge Mendes. Falcao's career at Old Trafford has been hampered by a calf injury and he has started only eight matches. He was dropped from manager Louis van Gaal's 18-man squad for the 1-0 home defeat by Southampton on Sunday after starting the previous five games. Afterwards Van Gaal said there was no injury problem and the decision was tactical. "It is very difficult for Manchester United fans," Mendes told Sky Italia. "They have an absolutely brilliant player, one of the very best in the world, who would without any doubt play 90 minutes of the match, every time, with any other club. "The truth is, right now, we don't know what will happen." Falcao has already decided he will not be returning to Monaco, who he joined for a reported £50m in May 2013 after prolific spells at Atletico Madrid and Porto. United's Netherlands midfielder Daley Blind returned to play 90 minutes on Sunday after injuring a knee in November. "The places in the team are expensive, and the manager has said that as well," he said. "So you have to train, every day, very hard to show yourself and show that you really want to play."

The defending champions Etoile du Sahel secured their first victory of the African Confederation Cup group phase with an emphatic 3-0 win over Al Ahli Tripoli of Libya on Saturday night to remain title contenders.
