But could the House of Lords be Nigel Farage's next stop? Prime Minister Theresa May declined to rule out the idea when it was put to her during Prime Minister's Questions. This has reignited a debate about whether UKIP's acting leader could soon be sitting on the famous red benches. SNP MP George Kerevan raised the question during PMQs, asking Mrs May whether there had been any "official conversations" about giving Mr Farage a peerage. As MPs laughed at the question, the prime minister replied: "All I can say to him, I'm afraid, is that such matters are normally never discussed in public." The matter was raised with Mrs May's official spokeswoman after PMQs, who said: "We don't comment on individuals. There's a process to be followed. "You will have heard the prime minister talk in October about her views on the honours system and making sure that it recognises people who really contribute to society and their communities." Supporters of the move point to UKIP's record in elections - it comfortably won the 2014 European elections, got the third largest vote share in last year's general election, and achieved its long-held goal of an EU exit in June's referendum. Despite its vote share, UKIP has been left with just one MP and three members of the House of Lords - and these all switched allegiance to the party - compared with the Lib Dems' 104. Supporters say this is unfair and means the party is under-represented. Mr Farage has been promoting his own role recently, offering his services to the government as an intermediary to Mr Trump. However, in July he said his "political ambition has been achieved" with the Brexit vote. It's not too surprising that support for Mr Farage's peerage comes from UKIP leadership contenders Paul Nuttall and Suzanne Evans - perhaps more so that former Green Party leader Natalie Bennett also backs his elevation to the Lords. "No matter how deeply we disagree with UKIP's politics, they should also be far better represented in the House of Lords," she said last year. Conservative backbencher Peter Bone told the BBC he would have put Mr Farage in the Lords after the general election. Although life peers are appointed by the Queen, it is the prime minister who nominates them. The leader of the opposition and other party leaders are also given a set allocation, but UKIP does not, which has long been a bone of contention with Mr Farage's party. One-off announcements can also be made by the government to award peerages to people appointed as ministers who are not MPs. Left-back Leighton Baines is Everton's regular penalty-taker, but ceded spot-kick duties to Mirallas and the Belgium winger struck the outside of the post. "Kevin felt his hamstring was getting sensitive. It was a precaution," the Everton boss told BBC Radio 5 live. "They are not related. The talking point is because we missed it." Media playback is not supported on this device Martinez says Baines did not have a problem with Mirallas, who converted from the spot in Everton's penalty shootout defeat by West Ham in the FA Cup last week, taking the kick instead of him. "Normally Leighton takes the penalties but we have a few players in the squad capable of taking them," Martinez added. "Leighton was quite happy to let him take it because he felt confident and right in that moment. "There is no big issue in that. It became an issue because he couldn't find the back of the net." However England assistant manager Gary Neville, covering the game for Sky Sports, disagreed. "What he's done there at 0-0, taking it off the major penalty taker, which is what it looks like has happened, is a despicable breach of team spirit," Neville said. "To go against team orders, you do not do that." Meanwhile, Gary Brabin has left his role as manager of Conference side Southport to join Everton's coaching staff. The 44-year-old began a second spell in charge of the Sandgrounders in October 2014 and guided them to the third round of the FA Cup this season, where they were beaten 1-0 by Derby County.
He has been in the European Parliament since 1999, failed to get elected to Westminster seven times, and recently made it to Trump Tower as a guest of the US president-elect. [NEXT_CONCEPT] Kevin Mirallas was substituted at half-time in Everton's 0-0 draw with West Brom because of injury rather than his penalty miss, Roberto Martinez says.

The extent of the intelligence agencies' computer and internet spying operation has recently become clear. The draft Investigatory Powers Bill is meant to put it on a firm legal footing. But the Intelligence and Security Committee says the bill lacks clarity and is a "missed opportunity". "Given the background to the draft Bill and the public concern over the allegations made by Edward Snowden in 2013, it is surprising that the protection of people's privacy - which is enshrined in other legislation - does not feature more prominently," says the committee's report. "One might have expected an overarching statement at the forefront of the legislation, or to find universal privacy protections applied consistently throughout the draft Bill. "However, instead, the reader has to search and analyse each investigatory power individually to understand the privacy protections which may apply. "This results in a lack of clarity which undermines the importance of the safeguards associated with these powers." Committee chairman, Conservative MP Dominic Grieve, said: "We have therefore recommended that the new legislation contains an entirely new part dedicated to overarching privacy protections, which should form the backbone of the draft legislation around which the exceptional powers are then built. This will ensure that privacy is an integral part of the legislation rather than an add-on." Mr Grieve added: "The draft bill appears to have suffered from a lack of sufficient time and preparation." The Home Office is due to publish a final, amended version of the bill later this year. The draft bill, which is one of the longest pieces of legislation to be considered by MPs in recent years, would force internet service providers to store web browsing records of everyone in the UK for a year. This is meant to help the police and security services keep pace with technology being used by terrorists and organised criminals. But security chiefs told the ISC, a cross-party committee of MPs and peers, that they already "have a range of other capabilities which enable them to obtain equivalent data" so this part of the bill will mainly be used by the police. The ISC wants to restrict the scope of proposed "equipment interference" warrants, allowing spies to hack into suspects' smartphones and computers and download data from them. either within the UK or abroad. Given that the "targeted" warrants could cover "a target as broad as an entire hostile foreign intelligence service" it is not clear why "bulk" warrants are also included in the bill, the committee says. The committee is also concerned about the downloading of large databases, which might include medical or bank records, known as bulk personal data sets, to aid investigations. Dominic Grieve said: "Given that each Bulk Personal Dataset potentially contains personal information about a large number of individuals - the majority of whom will not be of any interest to the agencies - the committee considers that each dataset is sufficiently intrusive that it should require a specific warrant. "We therefore recommend that Class Bulk Personal Dataset warrants are removed from the legislation." The draft bill allows the security services to hold - but not use - bulk personal data sets for a temporary period without a warrant in certain circumstances. This could happen, the report says, when the data has been acquired "opportunistically," without the time to apply for a warrant, but it means the agencies could hold the data without authorisation indefinitely which was clearly "not appropriate". The committee is also calling for more clarity about the privacy safeguards to be applied to the examination of material gathered by the trawling of internet traffic passing through the UK, a practice revealed by US whistleblower Edward Snowden. The draft bill is being scrutinised by a joint parliamentary committee which is due to report on Thursday. The ISC, which took evidence in private from Home Secretary Theresa May and the heads of MI5, MI6 and GCHQ, has confined its scrutiny to the parts of the bill that relate to secret intelligence material, which other committees cannot see. Sir Francis Richards, a former head of GCHQ, said said the agencies already had most of the powers they needed but the bill was needed to increase transparency and public confidence in a "post-Snowden" world. "The old legislation was designed to be obscure because there was not supposed to be any public understanding of the agencies' techniques," he told BBC Radio 4's the World at One. There was now a need to "put the record straight" but the draft bill, in his view, struck the right balance between security and privacy. The ISC report was welcomed by civil liberties campaigners. Jim Killock, of the Open Rights Group, said: "Rushing through legislation has to stop. It's time for a proper debate about whether bulk surveillance powers are acceptable in a democracy like the UK."
Plans to authorise mass data collection and hacking by Britain's spies do not do enough to protect privacy, a watchdog has warned.

The fresh contracts will keep O'Callaghan, 25, and Copeland, 28, at Thomond Park until 2018. Centre Rory Scannell, a former Ireland Under-20 star, has signed a senior contract with Munster after impressing in the province's academy. "Each player has their own individual attributes and are valuable members of our squad," said coach Anthony Foley. "With Robin and Dave, we are maintaining the services of two hugely physical players who bring different skill-sets to our overall game. "Both have proven their versatility over the years in playing across the back row and at lock, so we are delighted to have players of their calibre." Copeland joined Munster at the start of the 2014-15 season and has scored six tries in his 24 appearances. O'Callaghan, like Scannell a product of Munster's academy, has made 52 appearances for the province but is currently sidelined with a thigh injury. Scannell, 22, is the younger brother of Munster hooker Niall. "We are fortunate to have home-grown talent like Rory make their way up through the ranks," added Foley. "For a young guy who has been playing at the next level for over a year now we are looking forward to seeing Rory's contribution develop." Police officers found parts of Tracey Woodford's body in a bath along with a saw and knives three days after she had been reported missing, Cardiff Crown Court was told. Ms Woodford, 47, was discovered at a flat in Pontypridd, Rhondda Cynon Taff, on 24 April 2015. Christopher Nathan May, 50, of Graig, Pontypridd, denies her murder. Mrs Justice Nicola Davies warned the jury that some of the evidence would be "distressing" during the two-week trial. Jurors heard that, after the discovery in the bathroom, the arresting police officer asked where the rest of Ms Woodford's body parts were, and the defendant replied: "Some is in the cupboard and some in the storm drain at Pontypridd RFC." The court was also told a woman's decapitated torso was recovered from a black bag in a kitchen cupboard and a right thumb was found in a handbag along with a purse with Ms Woodford's bank cards. Roger Thomas QC, prosecuting, said the defendant claimed he either acted in self-defence, it was an accident or he lost self-control. "The defendant admits his actions were responsible in causing her death but disputes his conduct amounts to murder," said Mr Thomas.' "The prosecution submits, quite simply, this was a deliberate, brutal, vicious and sexually-motivated murder." He added: "The circumstances surrounding her death are harrowing and distressing. After her death she was mutilated and dismembered. "These actions were carried out deliberately and methodically with the clear intention of concealing the body parts, and thereby evading detection and arrest." The court heard Ms Woodford, who lived with her brother and mother, visited a number of pubs after shopping at Pontypridd's Cash Generator store on 21 April. She was refused alcohol after appearing intoxicated at the town's Skinny Dog pub at about 19:45 BST, but joined Mr May and two other men who were drinking at a table. A barmaid said the men were "merry" after drinking six to eight pints, the barrister added. After the group left the pub at 23:20 BST, Ms Woodford was seen walking with Mr May in the general direction of his home in Andrew's Court. "That was the last time that anybody saw her alive, apart from, of course, the defendant," Mr Thomas said. He explained how, three days after she had been reported missing, enquiries led two police officers to Mr May's flat on Friday 24 April. Mr Thomas said they discovered a "truly gruesome sight". "When the officer pulled back the shower curtain he was confronted with a sight he had never seen before and certainly did not expect," he said. The trial has been adjourned until Wednesday.

The clockwise carriageway near Thurrock was closed for over eight hours and tailbacks reached 12 miles after the crash just past J30 for Lakeside. Police advised motorists to avoid the area before the motorway reopened in the early afternoon. "Emergency services were contacted at 04:40 BST," police said. The trapped driver suffered leg injuries which "were not serious". Essex Fire and Rescue Service assistant divisional officer John Harris said releasing the driver was a complex operation. "The cab of the lorry was extremely badly damaged and the casualty severely trapped. "We worked with paramedics to release the man and as soon as he was out he was taken from the scene by ambulance."
A driver was released by the fire service and taken to hospital after three lorries collided on the M25 in Essex.

Paul McCleary, 36, of Newton Stewart, and Elizabeth Walton, 77, of Stranraer, died in the accident. Two men aged 81 and 72, and a 70-year-old woman remain in hospital as a result of the crash. Their condition has been described as stable. Police said inquiries into the accident were continuing and a report would be sent to the procurator fiscal. The accident involved a Suzuki Grand Vitara being driven by Mr McCleary which was in collision with a Vauxhall Meriva in which Ms Walton was a rear seat passenger. It is consulting on plans to expand its bases at Bessemer Close, Leckwith, and Wedal Road, Roath, into recycling "super sites". The other premises at Lamby Way and Waungron Road would close. A report says 80% of current waste could be recycled and that the changes would provide more staff to encourage this, as well as saving £300,000. The proposal comes as Cardiff council faces an overall budget shortfall of £50m in 2014/15. The local authority says its four sites, which are free to use and open seven days a week, are running at only 50% capacity. The Bessemer Close plant is the least used at only 29% while the existing Wedal Road plant is running at almost full capacity. The proposed new Wedal Road super site would back on to the existing recycling centre and would open in the autumn of this year. Cardiff's four current sites take recycling, composting and waste materials from householders but not from businesses. The report putting the reduction proposals out for consultation claims up to 80% of the waste dumped by householders could be recycled. It says the changes would "improve the customer experience with additional staff at the new super sites to help visitors recycle more of their waste". The drive to increase the rate of recycling comes as the council strives to reach the Welsh government's recycling target of 58% by 2015 or face fines of up to £200,000 on each percentage shortfall. Cardiff's recycling rate is currently 52%. The council's cabinet has put forward proposals for £4.9m of cuts to help bridge a £50m budget shortfall for 2014/15. Under the plans some staff's working hours would be cut by an hour per week and senior managers pay cut by 2.7%.

Since 1954, he has carried Carmarthen's ceremonial sword of office at civic events, a tradition going back to the 16th Century. Mr Mattick took up the sword from his father, who carried it in front of the mayor from 1948, and at a ceremony on Friday night in the town's Guild Hall the 77-year-old officially passed it on to his own son. The bejewelled weapon of Castilian steel was granted to Carmarthen by Henry VIII in 1546 in recognition of the town's service to the king. It is not known exactly what that service was, although it is thought Carmarthen gave the king either money or soldiers. According to royal charter, it must be carried in front of the town's mayor at all official ceremonies. And weighing in at around 15kg, that's not a task for the faint hearted. "It is a weighty thing to carry, and that's mainly why I'm having to give it up at my age," Mr Mattick said. "But the physical weight reminds you of the metaphorical weight of just exactly what it is you're doing. Lots of people scoff these days and say it's only a pantomime of the past. "But in these rituals, we remember the people and events which went before us; you're holding in your hand a piece of living history." Mr Mattick explained that while ceremonial these days, when it was originally granted the sword held a practical purpose. "In any town the size of Carmarthen during the 16th Century, the mayor would require protection. "But when the protection came in such a visible and ornate form as this, it sent out a clear message that the holder was under the protection of the king himself and that would-be assailants ought to beware." It is one of just four such swords granted by Henry VIII, and only two examples survive; the other in Hereford. There are specific rules regarding its use. It should only be unsheathed at times of war or when the mayor and mayoress are in immediate danger and must be held upside-down in any place of worship. It will be officially handed over from father to son as part of a ceremony to swear-in the new mayor of Carmarthen.
For 59 years, John Mattick has been the custodian of a piece of history, but now it has been passed onto a younger man.

The total number of deaths is five fewer than in 2014. But Assistant Chief Constable Alan Todd, of the Police Service of Northern Ireland (PSNI), said even one death "is one too many". Almost half of those who were killed were drivers, while 17 were passengers. Nineteen pedestrians and four motorcyclists also died. Five of those who lost their lives were children, one more than in the previous year. Environment Minister Mark H Durkan said the number of deaths was a "serious concern". "Every death is tragic and will have brought enormous suffering," he said. "It is each of us who can save lives, it is each of us who can protect ourselves and others from death and serious injury as we share the road." Mr Durkan said the Road Traffic (Amendment) Bill, which is approaching its final stage in passing through the Northern Ireland Assembly, would introduce further steps to tackle "problem areas", such as drink-driving, speeding and driver carelessness. ACC Todd said road users must "take personal responsibility" for their actions. "As we start the New Year, there are families and communities across Northern Ireland coping with the loss of loved ones who were killed in road traffic collisions," he added. "For others involved in serious collisions, it can mean learning to cope with life-changing injuries. "Road safety will continue to be a key priority for police, but the reality is that many collisions can be avoided." About 14,780 people have been killed on Northern Ireland's roads since records began in 1931. There were 114 deaths that year, and the numbers generally increased over the years to a peak of 372 deaths in 1972. Since then, the numbers have gradually decreased, first falling to double figures in 2010. The figure in 2012 of 48 road fatalities remains the lowest record.
Seventy-four people were killed on Northern Ireland's roads last year, according to police figures.

Paramedics were ruled out of strike action on Thursday evening when management declared a "major incident". Staff were canvassed on Friday to see if they would remain on duty to respond to serious and life-threatening calls if the major incident was stood down. Only 10% of the 41 crews said they would remain on duty. The Ambulance Trust said in the absence of a concrete commitment from enough staff to sustain a safe service, the trust said it had been left with no option but to keep the major incident in place. The trade union, Unison, said the decision came as no surprise to them and that there was a serious loss of good will among ambulance staff. In a text to staff at 2340 GMT on Thursday, the Ambulance Service said: "Please be advised that a major incident has been declared due to critical levels of cover and in line with the guidance issued by your union you are expected to report for duty as normal." Management said they had been forced to take the measure "to maintain a safe level of ambulance cover". Unions reacted angrily accusing management of "pulling a stunt" and said the move was "provocative". The Ambulance Service said it was "inundated" with calls saying staff would be striking. In a statement to the media, it said it had "exhausted all alternative contingency options, and lives would be at risk if we allowed the situation to deteriorate further". Due to previous agreements between management and unions, it meant crews were required to turn up for duty on Friday. In a tweet, the Ambulance Service added: "Two cities and many towns without ambulance cover is the only reason NIAS declared major incident." John McPoland of the Ambulance Service said at midnight there were seven crews available for all emergencies across Northern Ireland. "If we hadn't have declared a major incident because the level of services had decreased so much, we would be left with a situation this morning, where rather than having to explain a major incident, I could have been in here trying to explain to some family why a child who was choking in Newtownabbey, a three-month-old child, had perhaps died," he said. "Last night we had no crews to respond to any emergencies in Belfast". This is an extremely serious development; an obvious breakdown of communication between both parties - management and unions. Last night, the NI ambulance service received a steady stream of calls from ambulance crews saying they were withdrawing their labour at midnight. A decision was taken by management to declare a major incident across Northern Ireland. That was due to not having enough staff as opposed to there actually being an incident. Many people are furious, accusing management of acting in bad faith. Those I spoke to said management had been told as early as last Friday that there would be a substantial walkout. They said there was inadequate forward planning. In a worrying development, there is talk of further action, what's been described as triggering a blue flag day. That is when crews book a sick day on a date agreed among themselves with little or no notice given in advance to management. However, some paramedics described management's response as "despicable" and a "purely tactical measure". Ambulance crews had earlier agreed to respond only to 999 calls for cases that are life-threatening. Patricia McKeown of the union, Unison, said the service's decision to "declare a major incident across the whole of Northern Ireland two hours in advance of strike action is provocative". "There are no indications that such a major incident exists," she said. "Ambulance staff have the right to strike and we will support our members who chose to exercise their right. By declaring a major incident NIAS has effectively binned the agreements reached earlier." She said the Ambulance Service move could be "irreparably damaging industrial relations". Kevin McAdam of Unite accused management of "pulling a stunt". "We advised our members to return to normal roles in response to the NIAS's action in line with undertakings we had given," he said. "The trade unions know now the facts on the ground: that there was no major incident, rather there was an inability and unwillingness for management to effectively manage the strike. "We are unhappy and disgusted by the NIAS cynically exploiting this part of the emergency cover understanding to thwart the industrial action."
The Ambulance Service has said it will keep a "major incident" in place for the remainder of today's strike.

BBC Sport looks at five things you may have missed on an afternoon that saw MK Dons, Colchester and York City all suffer relegation. Coventry City extended perhaps the most unwanted record in the Football League on Saturday. The Sky Blues fell to a 2-0 defeat by struggling Doncaster to ensure that their wait to finish in the top six of any division will now stretch to 47 years. That's right, Coventry have not finished sixth or higher since registering a sixth-placed finish in the then first division in 1970. It had all looked so different earlier in the season when Tony Mowbray's side led the way in the third tier in late November. However, four successive defeats in late February and early March saw them drop out of the promotion places and they have not returned since, meaning a fourth season in League One beckons. The team's slump has left Mowbray baffled. He told BBC Coventry and Warwickshire: "I feel as disappointed as I've been in the team all year. Where is the team that we saw beat Gillingham 4-0, Millwall 4-0 and Wigan 2-0? Where has that team gone? "Maybe it's a bit too much for a few young players. I'm really disappointed for the supporters who've come out for them. "In my mind the promotion push was over quite a while ago, while mathematically you could still do it and you keep going but I don't think it was realistic to think that we were going to do that." On 28 April, 2015 Wigan were relegated from the Championship without playing, as Rotherham's win over Reading consigned them to a second relegation in three years. On Tuesday, a little less than a year later, the Latics could be promoted back to the Championship also without playing if Walsall fail to beat Shrewsbury. In reality, the League One leaders are as good as promoted already as their goal difference is vastly superior to the Saddlers. Chairman David Sharpe promised that the 2013 FA Cup winners would "bounce back" and that nothing other than promotion will suffice. Fortunately his charges have come good on his words. Boss Gary Caldwell was delighted with his side's performance in their 4-1 win over Southend on Saturday. He told BBC Radio Manchester: "We've focused on improving over the last few weeks and I thought today the performance was sensational. "We deserved to win more comfortably than we did in the end." He added: "Whether we win the league or not it is about improving as a club and moving forward. My focus is on preparing the team for Blackpool." They all needed a miracle to survive before kick-off today, but there was to be no divine intervention as three teams had their relegations confirmed. MK Dons went down from the Championship, Colchester were relegated from League One and York City dropped out of the Football League. Brentford beat Karl Robinson's Dons 4-1 while Colchester and York lost 3-0 to Burton and Accrington respectively. Robinson, who led the club to the Championship for the first time last year, told BBC Three Counties Radio he "felt sick" by their drop back into League One. "Everyone knows my dedication to this football club and right now it is as difficult as it can be for me. I've not known the feeling of being relegated before," he said. "It's not a case of me pointing my finger at anybody or anything. First and foremost I need to be honest with myself." U's boss Kevin Keen, who saw his team drop to the fourth tier for the first time in 18 years, told BBC Essex: "It's an extremely painful afternoon on the side of the pitch. But the chairman has been so supportive and loves this club. "There are so many good things about this club and it's got a really bright future. I want the supporters to stick with it." Minstermen manager Jackie McNamara told BBC Radio York: "You can see why they are up at the top of the league. I don't think we had enough players on their game today. We got what we deserved. "We're not relegated because of today but because of the season. There's been too many bad performances." Notts County might have avoided relegation from League Two this season but it has been a pretty disastrous campaign for the Meadow Lane side. The Magpies have sacked two managers - including Jamie Fullarton after just 70 days - been dumped out of the FA Cup by non-league Salford City and current boss Mark Cooper said the team runs the risk of alienating themselves from the fans. Saturday's 2-1 home defeat by Cambridge, managed by ex-Magpies boss Shaun Derry, means they have now lost six of their last 10 matches to sit 17th in League Two. Cooper, who said he would not allow the players to cost him his job after Tuesday's 3-1 defeat by Barnet, is only contracted to the club until the end of the season. Assistant boss Richard Dryden told BBC Radio Nottingham: "We started horrifically. It was ridiculous. You can't work out how we are conceding so many soft goals. "It's difficult to find a silver lining."
It was a day of more downs than ups in the Football League with the end of the season now in touching distance.

The dress sold in an online auction last week for a top bid of £170,100 after being modelled by 12-year-old Sian from Prestatyn in Wales. When that deal failed, the makers of the dress were hoping to agree a "second chance" offer of £150,000. But the second chance bidder didn't respond by 3pm on Wednesday - the deadline for them to buy the dress. Sian's mum, Helen, told Newsround today that they'll re-list the dress for only three days and she "hopes this time we get genuine bids". Helen says they'd do things a bit differently to avoid the auction getting out of control again. For example, bidders will have to email her first with their bid, before it is accepted. Helen told us that as with the first time around, "anything over £50 is a bonus". Although the dress hasn't sold, Helen says Sian has thoroughly enjoyed the experience. She's even made her a scrapbook of all the media coverage that the loom band dress has received, including Sian's visit to Newsround's studio. But Helen said the family "are ready to go back to normal and get on with our lives." The National Audit Office (NAO) has blamed the UK government for huge extra costs and lengthy delays to modernising the Great Western rail network. Swansea West MP Geraint Davies said ministers should honour a pledge to electrify to Swansea, despite mistakes. On Tuesday, Network Rail said that was planned to be completed by 2024. But Wales route managing director Andy Thomas said dates and costs were "to be confirmed". UK ministers also said electric trains were due to start running between Cardiff and London in 2019, despite the deferring of work on other lines. The NAO report, published on Wednesday, said the estimated cost of the Great Western network improvements had increased by £2.1bn to £5.6bn since 2013. Delays had added between 18 and 36 months to the project's timescale, it said. The report blamed the project's problems on poor government planning, describing the modernisation as a "case study in how not to manage a major programme". Mr Davies said Swansea's "jobs and prosperity must not be the price paid for Conservative incompetence in planning and implementing rail electrification". He said it was "crucial that the Conservatives honour their promise to extend rail electrification to Swansea so we are part of the Europe-wide electrified rail network". Welsh Economy and Infrastructure Secretary Ken Skates said it was important that the UK government "gets a grip of the situation". "We are pressing the UK government for confirmation that electrification to Swansea will be delivered immediately after electrification to Cardiff is completed in 2018," he said. Plaid Cymru transport spokesman Jonathan Edwards MP said electrification "should have happened under Labour's 13 years of unbroken rule but we are still waiting". "The consequences of continued delay is that the Welsh economy will continue to perform below its potential, fewer jobs will be available to people here and those jobs that are available will be poorly paid," he said. Russell George, for the Welsh Conservatives, said the UK government had committed "the largest investment in the railways since the Victorian era". "We should never forget that in 13 years of Labour rule at Westminster there wasn't a single inch of track electrified here in Wales," he added.

Mr Valls presented his resignation to President Francois Hollande on Tuesday. Mr Cazeneuve will be in charge of the Socialist government until June's parliamentary elections. He has played a key role in managing France's security since the jihadist terror attacks in Paris last year. Mr Valls will face other contenders in the Socialist primary next month. Last week, in a move that surprised many, President Hollande announced that he would not seek a second term. He is the first president since France's Fifth Republic was created in 1958 not to seek a second mandate. But he has haemorrhaged support amid stubbornly high unemployment and anxiety about Islamist terror. If successful, Mr Valls will face Francois Fillon and Marine Le Pen in the first round of the presidential election in April. Who will be France's president in 2017? Election 2017: What are the issues? France country profile Current polling suggests that Ms Le Pen, leader of the far-right National Front (FN), could come in the top two in the first round, but would be likely to lose to the centre-right Mr Fillon in the second. Mr Valls is not guaranteed to win the Socialist primary, which will involve at least seven other candidates. They will include former economy minister Arnaud Montebourg, who is further to the left. Mr Valls is seen as a divisive figure on the left, after forcing labour reforms through parliament and endorsing controversial bans last summer on the Islamic "burkini" swimsuit. Even if he wins the primary, he could be undermined by two rivals for leftist or centrist votes: the radical socialist Jean-Luc Melenchon and centrist Emmanuel Macron, a former economy minister. Emmanuel Macron - controversial man on the move The new interior minister, replacing Mr Cazeneuve, is Bruno Le Roux. He is the Socialist parliamentary leader and another close ally of President Hollande. Mr Cazeneuve, 53, was a spokesman for Mr Hollande during the 2012 presidential campaign that brought victory for Mr Hollande over Nicolas Sarkozy. In 2012-2013, Mr Cazeneuve was junior minister for European affairs. That post included the difficult task of getting parliamentary approval for the EU's European Stability Mechanism, despite opposition from some fellow Socialists. In 2013-2014 he was junior minister for the budget. France's Le Parisien daily says his command of tough budgetary issues earned him the nickname "R2D2" - referring to a robot in the original Star Wars film. He became interior minister in 2014 when the incumbent, Jerome Cahuzac, resigned because it was revealed that he had a secret Swiss bank account. Mr Cazeneuve faced a stormy period of national trauma for France, as attacks linked to so-called Islamic State (IS), in Paris and Nice, claimed 238 lives. The Nice attack, when a lorry ploughed into a crowd of revellers on the beachfront, put Mr Cazeneuve under fire for alleged policing failures. He has overseen the state of emergency imposed after last year's Paris attacks, including extra surveillance of suspected jihadists and extra powers for police to conduct searches. In recent months he has had to deal with discontent among police officers, who say the state has left them under-resourced, considering the scale of the terror threat. The son of a schoolteacher, Mr Cazeneuve was born in Senlis, northern France, and trained as a lawyer. French media see Cazeneuve as reliable loyalist - BBC Monitoring Several French media outlets note that Mr Cazeneuve is regarded very much as a safe pair of hands by President Hollande, who has come to rely heavily on his loyalty, discretion and reliability. Le Monde, Liberation and Le Parisien dailies all mention Mr Cazeneuve's nickname "the Swiss army knife" - meaning he is Mr Hollande's trusty helper. Le Monde also says that over the past few years, Mr Cazeneuve "has established himself as one of the key pieces on Hollande's chessboard". Liberation notes that Mr Cazeneuve's "trademark" characteristic is his ability to remain calm in the heat of a crisis. However, several outlets - including Le Point magazine and BFMTV - predict that Mr Cazeneuve is likely to spend only a record-breaking short term of five months in his new role before the 2017 presidential election.
French Interior Minister Bernard Cazeneuve has been named as prime minister, replacing Manuel Valls, who resigned in order to make a bid for the presidency next year.

Dockrell, 23, made his Championship debut for Somerset in 2011. Dibble, 24, has played four first-class matches between 2009 and 2015, while 21-year-old Regan made only one first-class appearance. "It is always tough to release young players," said Somerset director of cricket Matt Maynard. "But ultimately we do have to make the types of judgments that are in their long-term interests, as well as the club's. "In the cases of Adam, George and James, that task is made all the more difficult because they are outstanding young men. I am sure all of them will have a promising future in whatever direction life takes them." Dockrell, who has taken 126 first-class wickets, spent time on loan with Sussex this season. He said: "I first came over to Somerset when I was 15 years old. Since then I have enjoyed all of the time that I have been involved with the club. "I would like to thank Brian Rose for signing me in the first place and giving me the opportunity to play for the county where I have felt so at home."

The Revolutionary Guards said they fired the missile as the stealth drone approached the area, 300km (185 miles) south of the capital Tehran. The statement did not say when the drone was brought down, nor how the Guards knew it was Israeli. World powers are currently negotiating with Iran over its nuclear programme. Tehran insists it wants to keep its nuclear capabilities for peaceful purposes, but critics - including many in Israel - say this is a front for producing nuclear weapons. In the past, Israel has frequently threatened to attack Iran's nuclear plants. An Israeli military spokesman told the BBC there was no comment or reaction to be given about such foreign reports. Natanz is Iran's main uranium enrichment site, and contains more than 16,000 centrifuges. The statement from the Revolutionary Guards said the drone was on course to fly over the nuclear facility at Natanz. If so, the fact that the drone managed to get so close raises questions about Iran's detection capabilities, says BBC Persian's Rana Rahimpour.
Iran says it has shot down an Israeli drone near the Natanz nuclear enrichment site.

Inflation as measured by the Consumer Prices Index rose to 0.5% last month, up from 0.3% in February, driven mainly by a sharp increase in air fares. Sterling was up 0.5% against the dollar at $1.4307, while against the euro it rose 0.5% to €1.2543. On the stock market, by midday the FTSE 100 had wiped out its early losses to stand 6.63 points higher at 6,206.75. Commodity-related stocks were having another good day, and among the big mining firms Anglo American rose 5.9% and BHP Billiton added 3.2%. Equipment hire company Ashtead Group was the biggest faller in the FTSE 100. Its shares dropped 3.9% after HSBC cut its rating on the stock to "hold" from "buy". Whitbread's shares were down 1.9% after it said that the managing director of its Costa Coffee chain, Christopher Rogers, was leaving the company. Oil prices continued to rise on hopes that a meeting of oil producers this weekend will take action to reduce the global supply glut. Brent jumped to $43.58 a barrel at one point before dropping back to $43.17. US crude rose 23 cents to $40.59 a barrel. The study, in the American Journal of Public Health, found that 400,000 females aged 15-49 were raped over a 12-month period in 2006 and 2007. That rate is significantly higher than the previous estimate of 16,000 rapes reported in one year by the UN. DR Congo says the figures reflect women being better able to report rape. Sexual violence has long been a dominant feature of the continuing conflict in eastern DR Congo. Amber Peterman, leading author of the study, said: "Our results confirm that previous estimates of rape and sexual violence are severe underestimates of the true prevalence of sexual violence occurring in the DRC. "Even these new, much higher figures still represent a conservative estimate of the true prevalence of sexual violence because of chronic underreporting due to stigma, shame, perceived impunity, and exclusion of younger and older age groups as well as men," she added. The study, entitled Estimates and Determinants of Sexual Violence Against Women in the Democratic Republic of Congo, used data from a 2007 government health survey. Previous estimates have been derived from police and health centre reports. The highest numbers of rapes were found in war-ravaged North Kivu, where an average of 67 women out of 1,000 have been raped at least once. However, the report said sexual violence was also widespread outside the conflict zones of eastern DR Congo. The BBC's Thomas Hubert in Kinshasa says the study is in line with earlier reports that found sexual violence was spreading outside of war zones and into DR Congo's civilian society. Government spokesman Lambert Mende told the BBC that recent increases in rape figures were a result of better reporting rather than rising violence. "The report itself of these scientists is an evidence of the state becoming more and more efficient by dispatching judges, prosecutors, police all over the country," he said. "It is that, that allows people now to complain and to feed such reports." Commenting on the report, Michael VanRooyen, director of the Harvard Humanitarian Initiative, said that "rape in the DRC... has emerged as one of the great human crises of our time".

Sabet Choudhury was told his mother Sakina could have only three years to live, after her kidneys failed. He said he had "little choice" but to donate a kidney, as she could have been waiting 10 years for a transplant. The operation was a success but he said the wait for other ethnic minority families could be "long and fatal". According to the NHS, transplants are more likely to be successful if the donor is of a similar ethnic background. But in the UK only 3.5% of people from ethnic minorities are on the Organ Donor Register, while more than a third of those awaiting a transplant are from ethnic minorities. Sabet, 41, said he was worried his mother, who is 70 and of Bangladeshi origin, would face a 10-year-wait for a transplant, which might come too late. She fell ill at Christmas 2013 and Sabet said it had been hard to watch his mother having to be hooked up to a dialysis machine, three times a week with a "pretty poor quality of life". "You don't want to see that happen in front of your eyes, that quickly, knowing you can do something about it," he said. At the beginning of 2014 he began the process to be a living donor, with tests at Southmead Hospital, Bristol. He was cleared for the transplant and the operation took place in November last year. Sabet's mother is now doing well and looks "almost 10 years younger", he said. Sabet's story is being broadcast in Transplants and Trafficking on BBC 1 in the West at 1900 BST on Thursday 30 July and will be available on BBC iPlayer.
A BBC Points West presenter has said he felt he had to donate a kidney to his mother because of a shortage of deceased Asian donors.

Hogg, 28, was injured in a collision with team-mate Mark Hudson in Town's 4-0 defeat by Bristol City on 17 March. The initial diagnosis would have ruled the former Watford man out for the rest of the campaign. But the Championship club said in a statement that he could now return to training on Sunday, 2 April. Huddersfield's head of medical Ian Kirkpatrick said: "The initial information, symptoms and summary down in Bristol Royal Infirmary suggested Jonathan had a fracture in his cervical spine. "However, a detailed review with the specialists we use in the area has added to Jonathan's diagnosis and rate of recovery. "If there was any remote question over this, the specialists would say and we would err on the side of caution. However, a team of multi-disciplinary specialists - and an independent third opinion on Tuesday - gives us complete confidence. "We can now lift the restrictions on Jonathan, with the aim of him returning to full training as soon as is safely possible." It arose in a single dog and has survived in canines ever since, with the cancer cells passing between animals when they mate. A team led by the Wellcome Trust Sanger Institute near Cambridge decoded the DNA of the cancer. It revealed the "genetic identikit" of an ancient husky-like dog, which first developed the disease. The animal was of a medium size with a short, straight coat that was coloured grey-brown or black. "We do not know why this particular individual gave rise to a transmissible cancer," said lead researcher Dr Elizabeth Murchison. "But it is fascinating to look back in time and reconstruct the identity of this ancient dog, whose genome is still alive today in the cells of the cancer that it spawned." The cancer studied is extremely rare - one of only two known types of the disease, both in animals, that is sexually transmissible. Known as dog-transmissible cancer, it causes genital tumours. By decoding the genome of the cancer, and looking at a type of mutation that acts like a "molecular clock", researchers were able to pinpoint its origin to 11,000 years ago. Remarkably, the cancer has survived, despite accumulating millions of genetic changes. Rather than dying out with its first host, the cancer spread by "jumping into other dogs", Dr Murchison added. "It is the oldest and most common cancer lineage that we know of." The research, published in the journal Science, shows the cancer existed in an isolated population of dogs for much of its history. Then it spread around the world in the last 500 years, perhaps carried by dogs accompanying explorers on sea voyages. Apart from this one, the only other known transmissible cancer is facial cancer in Tasmanian devils, spread by biting. "The genome of the transmissible dog cancer will help us to understand the processes that allow cancers to become transmissible," said Prof Sir Mike Stratton, Director of the Sanger Institute. Most cancers arise when a single cell in the body gains mutations that cause it to divide out of control. Cancer cells often spread to different parts of the body in a process known as metastasis, but it is very rare for cancer cells to leave the bodies of their original hosts and spread to other individuals. Russia led the tie 22-21 after the first leg, and were ahead at half-time in Montevideo, but three tries in the second half saw Uruguay home. Los Teros qualify for the World Cup, which will take place in England and Wales, for only the third time. They will face England, Australia, Wales and Fiji in Pool A. Fly-half Felipe Berchesi kicked 21 points for the hosts, with Joaquin Prada, Alejo Corral and Agustin Ormaechea crossing for tries. Aleksandr Ianushkin's try just before the break had put Russia 17-12 ahead, but after a penalty increased their lead, Prada's try began the decisive phase of the match. Yet despite Uruguay's three tries, when Yuri Kushnarev converted Vasily Artemyev's try with three minutes left, Russia were a converted try away from winning the tie. But a penalty from Berchesi in injury time secured Uruguay their place at the World Cup, where they will face Wales in their opening match on 20 September in Cardiff.

It is applying to challenge two of 164 rules which give rights for the public and government workers to use Welsh. One says it must provide documents for public use in Welsh and the other to make Welsh oral announcements. The government said it was "fully committed" to delivering standards and had issued the challenge after considering their implications. The rules, due to be imposed on Welsh ministers from March 2016, were written by civil servants and passed by the assembly two years ago. Campaigners from Welsh language society Cymdeithas yr Iaith said they were concerned the challenge would weaken people's right to Welsh, and it was "a matter of great embarrassment" for the government to challenge rules it wrote and tabled itself. Welsh Language Commissioner Meri Huws will now consider the challenge, but said she could not comment while the process was under way. Manon Elin, chairwoman of Cymdeithas yr Iaith, said: "If the government is not ready to meet people's basic rights to Welsh, who is? "We'll be opposing these applications to weaken people's rights to Welsh, and we'll consider using our rights to intervene legally against the Welsh Government and other bodies. We will stand up for people in order to secure their human rights, their rights to Welsh."
The Welsh government is contesting its own policy on Welsh language services provision.

Early findings from the cockpit voice recorder suggest the pilot made desperate efforts to get back in, sources close to the investigation say. A German state prosecutor confirmed the reports, Reuters reported, but he did not know which pilot was locked out. The Airbus 320 from Barcelona to Duesseldorf crashed on Tuesday. Relatives of the 150 passengers and crew who died are due to visit the area on Thursday. Lufthansa, which owns Germanwings, arranged two special flights for families and friends on Thursday - one from Barcelona and one from Duesseldorf - to Marseille, and both groups will travel on by road. Separately, some relatives who did not want to fly are travelling by bus from Barcelona. Germanwings chief Thomas Winkelmann said 72 passengers on flight 4U 9525 were German citizens, including 16 pupils returning from an exchange trip. Spain's government said 51 of the dead were Spanish. Other victims were from Australia, Argentina, Britain, Iran, Venezuela, the US, the Netherlands, Colombia, Mexico, Japan, Denmark and Israel. On Wednesday, French officials said usable data had been extracted from the cockpit voice recorder but that it was too early to draw any conclusions. Remi Jouty, director of the French aviation investigative agency, said he hoped investigators would have the "first rough ideas in a matter of days" but the full analysis could take weeks or even months. However, the New York Times quoted an unnamed investigator as saying that one of the pilots - it is not clear if it is the captain or the first officer - left the cockpit and had been unable to get back in. "The guy outside is knocking lightly on the door, and there is no answer," the investigator said, describing audio from the recorder. "And then he hits the door stronger, and no answer. There is never an answer. You can hear he is trying to smash the door down." A source close to the investigation gave a similar account to the AFP news agency. An alarm indicating proximity to the ground can be heard before the moment of impact, the source adds. Lufthansa has not named the pilots but it said the co-pilot joined Germanwings in September 2013, directly after training, and had flown 630 hours. This latest revelation, if true, begins to paint a dramatic picture of the last moments in the cockpit. But there are still plenty of questions to answer. Why did the plane dive? Locked doors don't make planes crash. Why couldn't the pilot open the door? There is an emergency procedure that should allow them to get back in. Who was flying? We now know the co-pilot was relatively inexperienced. Was he trying to cope with an emergency on his own? If there really was banging on the door, it might also suggest there was at least air in the cabin, because someone was clearly able to breathe. There had been talk of a depressurisation knocking everyone out. It is surprising that such sensitive information has leaked out - again, it's still not officially confirmed. The rules governing who listens to black boxes are very tight. Only a handful of people are normally allowed into the room when they play the recording back. How pilots operate the cockpit door It said the captain had more than 6,000 hours of flying experience and had been with Germanwings since May 2014, having flown previously for Lufthansa and Condor. Lufthansa has not commented on the reports surrounding the cockpit door, but said its cockpit protocols are in line with rules established by the German aviation safety authority. These stipulate that when there are two crew, one can leave the cockpit but only for the absolute minimum time. BBC business reporter Theo Leggett says some airlines have a "rule of two" where if a pilot leaves the cockpit for any length of time another crew member must replace them. However, this is not the case with Lufthansa or some other major airlines. David Kaminski-Morrow, air transport editor of Flightglobal, said that normally a locked cockpit door could be opened with a code. "But inside there is a simple switch on the control panel the pilot would turn to lock the door," he said. He cited the crash of a Mozambican Airlines flight in Namibia in 2013 in which the pilot is believed to have locked himself in the cockpit and put the plane into a nose dive. Mr Jouty said the second "black box" - the flight data recorder - had not been found and he could not confirm an earlier statement by President Francois Hollande that its casing had been recovered.
One of the two pilots of the Germanwings plane that crashed in the French Alps was locked out of the cockpit, according to reports.

The National Green Tribunal (NGT) said it was "unfortunate" that both the federal and Uttar Pradesh governments had failed to clean the river. A petitioner told the NGT on Monday that dead bodies were still being dumped in the heavily-polluted river. The Ganges is considered holy and supports a third of the country's population living on its floodplains. "It is really unfortunate that the Ganges continues to be polluted. Why don't you [the state and federal governments] do something? You raise slogans [about cleaning the river], but do exactly opposite of that," the NGT said. The watchdog was hearing a petition filed by environmental activist Gaurav Bansal. Mr Bansal told BBC Hindi that people still dump dead bodies in the Ganges from the northern city of Varanasi and the government hasn't been able to stop the practice. "Millions have been spent to clean the river, but nothing has changed. All governments of the past and the current one are responsible for the situation," Mr Bansal said. Environmentalists say unchecked industrial waste and sewage heavily pollute the river. And the Hindu practice of using the river for cremation also causes pollution. Many Hindus do not cremate unwed girls and young boys, and many poor people cannot afford cremation so they wrap the body in white muslin and float it in the river. Prime Minister Narendra Modi had promised to clean up the Ganges during his election campaign speeches in 2014 and his Bharatiya Janata Party government subsequently set an "ambitious" target to complete the task within three years. But correspondents say that little has changed and the river continues to be one of the most polluted in India. Planets with atmospheres that orbit too close to their host stars are bombarded by a torrent of high-energy radiation. The gaseous outer layers of these worlds are then stripped away, according to the international team of scientists. Their work appears in the journal Nature Communications. The researchers used data from Nasa's Kepler space telescope, which was launched to identify and study exoplanets, which circle stars other than our own. They focused on a category of planet called "super Earths", which are roughly 2-10 times more massive than our own planet. Co-author Dr Guy Davies, from the University of Birmingham, said: "For these planets it is like standing next to a hairdryer turned up to its hottest setting. "There has been much theoretical speculation that such planets might be stripped of their atmospheres. We now have the observational evidence to confirm this, which removes any lingering doubts over the theory." The astronomers used a technique called asteroseismology, which probes the internal structure of stars, to confirm the idea. By characterising the host star, the team was able to also determine the precise sizes of the exoplanets around them. The results of the study have important implications for understanding how stellar systems, like our own Solar System, and their planets, evolved over time - including the role played by the host star. Dr Davies added: "Our results show that planets of a certain size that lie close to their stars are likely to have been much larger at the beginning of their lives. Those planets will have looked very different."

Wolsty Banks on the Solway coast is a Site of Special Scientific Interest and home to ground-nesting birds, sand lizards and the rare natterjack toad. Seven hectares of dune grassland were destroyed in a fire on 20 July caused by a discarded disposable barbecue. Environmental experts have been assessing the "long-lasting and horrendous" damage to wildlife. Rose Wolfe, from the Solway Coast Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, said: "It is going to take a long time for nature to repair it - up to 10 years in the worst affected areas. "The heat will have been so severe in some parts of the dunes that the roots of the grasses will have been burnt away and will be unable to re-grow immediately." She added: "I can't emphasise enough the danger of using barbecues on the dunes. "I know it's a gorgeous place to sit and picnic, but the risk of fire is just too great."

Media playback is not supported on this device BBC Sport has learned Tevez feels his row with boss Roberto Mancini was about warming up and not a refusal to play. The 27-year-old felt he was ready to play when asked to prepare to come on in the second half of the 2-0 defeat. Tevez blamed "confusion on the bench" for the "misunderstanding" in a statement on Wednesday. Mancini claimed after the match that Tevez would never play for him at City again. In exchange for a contract reportedly worth £250,000 a week, the very least City should expect from Tevez is an agreement to play for the team and their supporters when requested by the manager. Read more in Phil's blog But Tevez, who is unhappy with his lack of playing time in recent weeks, is understood to believe his boss should not have spoken publicly on the matter with emotions running high and the facts behind the dispute unclear. The Argentine angered Mancini by seemingly not wanting to come on during the second half. "If I have my way he will be out. He's finished with me," the Italian said after the match. "If we want to improve as a team, Carlos can't play with us. With me, he is finished." Tevez subsequently apologised to the club's fans for the incident. "I would like to apologise to all Manchester City fans, with whom I have always had a strong relationship, for any misunderstanding that occurred in Munich," he said. "They understand that when I am on the pitch I have always given my best for the club. In Munich on Tuesday I had warmed up and was ready to play. Media playback is not supported on this device "This is not the right time to get into specific details as to why this did not happen. But I wish to state that I never refused to play. "Going forward I am ready to play when required and to fulfil my obligations." BBC sports editor David Bond says it is unlikely any showdown talks between Mancini and Tevez will take place on Wednesday as the players are not due in for training. City are next in action on Saturday when they play at Blackburn in the Premier League. Tevez has agitated for a move away from City twice in the past year, submitting a transfer request (which was later withdrawn) in December before, in July, asking for a move in order to be closer to his two daughters in his Argentina. A proposed £40m switch to Corinthians fell through in the summer as time ran out to complete the transfer before the Brazilian deadline. In a statement explaining the deal's collapse, Sao Paulo club hinted that the deal could be revived, stating "we look forward to him being with us in the near future." Tevez finished joint top-scorer in the Premier League last season with 20 goals, but was stripped of the City captaincy for the new campaign and appears to have slipped to fourth-choice striker at Etihad Stadium. The former Manchester United and West Ham player was an unused substitute in Saturday's 2-0 win over Everton as Mancini opted to replace Dzeko with Mario Balotelli.
Manchester City striker Carlos Tevez is unhappy with how the club and media have portrayed his failure to come on as a substitute against Bayern Munich.

It's hard to see many voters getting beyond the bold-type pledges made with nice round numbers. But genuine credibility established over the next few weeks - based around detailed solutions - could achieve cut-through.

Much of this land is owned by agencies like the NHS, the Ministry of Defence or local government. And they have to weigh up the pressure for immediate disposal against predicting future operational needs. Cross-department land assembly won't be easy. But the mayor does have a direct say over land owned by Transport for London. It claims it has now identified about 300 acres, across 75 sites, which could deliver 10,000 homes over the next decade. Two thirds of them would be in Zones 1 and 2. There are already plans for developments at Parsons Green, Northwood and above the proposed new Tube link at Battersea power station, where affordable housing is badly needed. Most sites are what TfL describes as "operationally constrained", adjoining or above stations or track, making development more tricky. It means the new mayor could have, optimistically as things stand, around 1,000 new homes a year to shape directly. We've learned so far that Labour candidate Sadiq Khan will apportion an unstipulated amount of this new housing to shared ownership where you typically start by buying 25% of a property's value and pay rent on the remaining 75%. He says he will give priority to people who've been renting privately for more than five years, and claims he will be able to cut the typical rent element because TfL will retain the freehold. Conservative Zac Goldsmith has said that he would ensure the land is used for a mixture of affordable rented, shared ownership and market housing which would go to people who had lived in the capital for three years. The Liberal Democrats' Caroline Pidgeon has called for a new mayoral building company, the Greens' Sian Berry for a "community" homes agency, and UKIP's Peter Whittle for a social housing building programme alongside a debate on the pressure of migration on the current housing stock. And what of previous experience? Over the last few years, the Greater London Authority (GLA) under Boris Johnson has sold off - rather than retaining a stake in - around 1,500 acres of land. According to the latest GLA figures 27,300 homes have received planning consent, of which 7,590 were deemed affordable, either to rent or buy. Mr Khan has described this as a "fire-sale" and said public assets need to be "sweated more". In recent years, too, more than a hundred Metropolitan Police buildings have been sold, raising around £1bn. Mr Goldsmith says that the limited physical and monetary resources available in the future means regeneration needs to combines transport and housing, and new ways of raising money for infrastructure like the mayor taking a slice of stamp duty will be necessary.

Transport minister Keith Brown said Abellio, Arriva, FirstGroup, MTR and National Express had passed the pre-qualification stage of the process. ScotRail provides passenger train services throughout Scotland. FirstGroup currently holds the franchise, which is due to expire on 31 March 2015. ScotRail operates more than 2,000 train services a day, delivering more than 76 million passenger journeys and 1.6 billion passenger miles a year. The franchise employs a total of 4,300 staff. Mr Brown said the five shortlisted companies had demonstrated, in their responses to the pre-qualification questionnaire, "an understanding of, and a commitment to realise, our ambitions for a transformed rail service". He added: "I am convinced that this strong competition will deliver a great public rail service for the people of Scotland." A draft invitation to tender will be published on 19 November.
Five rail companies have been shortlisted by the Scottish government to bid for the ScotRail franchise, which is due for renewal in 2015.

The Care Inspectorate said an inspection of Brae Cottage Residential Home in Broughty Ferry raised "serious concerns." The regulator has served the home with a formal improvement notice listing five areas requiring immediate attention. These include staffing levels and restraint of residents. A Care Inspectorate spokesman said: "Our inspection raised serious concerns and we will report on that inspection in full in due course. "The improvement notice we have issued clearly lays out the improvements we must see so that the care provided to residents improves quickly. "We will visit this care home again soon to check on progress and if we are not satisfied that the matters raised are being addressed urgently we will not hesitate to take further action." The home's manager has been given until the end of April to ensure there are sufficient numbers of staff "appropriate to the health, welfare and safety of service users." A system to ensure no resident is subject to restraint "unless it is the only practicable way of securing their welfare and safety" must be in place by 30 March. The service must also carry out full assessments on all environmental issues which may cause harm to people in the home. The notice also said that radiators in the home must be fitted with covers by the end of February to protect residents from the risk of burns. Morocco left the organisation in 1984, after it recognised the independence of Western Sahara, regarded by Morocco as part of its historic territory. It was the only country in Africa that was not a member of the continental body. AU leaders also voted for Chadian Foreign Minister Moussa Faki Mahamat to be the next head of the AU commission. Mr Faki Mahamat beat Kenya's top diplomat Amina Mohamed. The race is usually settled behind the scenes before the vote but this went to seven rounds of voting. Outgoing commissioner, South Africa's Nkosazana Dlamini-Zuma, stayed in the job an extra six months after leaders failed to agree a candidate in July. Mr Faki garnered 39 votes in a hotly contested election at the ongoing heads of state summit in the city. While campaigning for the job, he said he dreamt of an Africa where the "sound of guns would be drowned out by cultural songs and rumbling factories" and pledged to streamline the bureaucratic AU during his four-year term in office. Analysts say he was considered an outsider but being at the forefront of the fight against Islamist militants in Nigeria, Mali and the Sahel may have worked in his favour. Western Sahara is the last African case on the United Nations decolonisation committee. A referendum was promised in 1991 but never carried out due to wrangling over who is eligible to vote. BBC World Service Africa editor James Copnall says the issue is likely to remain contentious despite Morocco's readmission to the AU. Kitesurfing in a danger zone Figures from the Eurostat agency showed the jobless rate fell from 9.6% in January to 9.5% - the lowest since May 2009. The lowest unemployment rates were in the Czech Republic (3.4%) and Germany (3.9%), while the highest were in Greece (23.1%) and Spain (18%). France, the second-biggest economy in the eurozone, was stuck at 10%. At the height of the financial crisis, unemployment in the eurozone peaked at 12.1%. Separate survey data suggested strong growth among eurozone manufacturers. IHS Markit's final manufacturing Purchasing Managers' Index (PMI) for the eurozone rose to 56.2 in March, from 55.4 in February. Any reading above 50 shows growth. However, Chris Williamson, chief business economist at IHS Markit, said high demand was bringing problems. "Eurozone manufacturing is clearly enjoying a sweet spell as we move into spring, but it is also suffering growing pains in the form of supply delays and rising costs," he said. "The survey is also signalling the highest incidence of supplier delivery delays for nearly six years, underscoring how suppliers are struggling to meet surging demand." On Friday, official figures showed inflation slowed by more than expected in March. Prices in the eurozone were 1.5% higher than a year ago, down sharply on the 2% rate seen in February. The collision on Manchester Road, Altrincham, at 10:50 BST on Saturday involved a Toyota Auris driven by a 45-year-old man. The girl who died is thought to be in her early teens.

Daniel Johnson will serve a minimum of 23 years behind bars for killing David Wilson, 49, as he lay in bed in his Sunderland flat. Johnson, of Morris Street, Gateshead, who had earlier been drinking at a nearby house party, had denied murder. But he was found guilty of the "brutal" killing at Newcastle Crown Court. The hearing was told how Johnson was at a party on 14 December 2014 and footage was shown in court of him pouring alcohol into his eyes and dancing. When he left the party he came across Mr Wilson's partner, who had left their Southwick Road flat to get a takeaway. CCTV footage showed Johnson lead the man to a cash machine to try and force him to get money out but this failed. Johnson then took the man's house keys before running off and letting himself into the flat where his victim - who had also spent the night drinking - was asleep. He then straddled his victim and repeatedly stabbed him through his duvet as he slept. Det Chf Insp Mark Ord, of Northumbria Police, said it was a "stranger" murder and Johnson did not know his victim. "David was brutally murdered when he was most likely asleep. We focused on CCTV footage showing the attempted robbery of David's partner at a cash point", he said. "The second key piece of evidence was a call being made to the police that morning from David's phone at 04:41 asking for a lift - these were the two pieces of a complex jigsaw that we needed to fill in." A British Transport Police spokesman said the incident happened at 10:30 GMT at Reading West station. The man was found by emergency service workers and pronounced dead at the scene. The incident is not being treated as suspicious. Passengers faced delays of up to an hour, as replacement buses were put into operation between Theale and Reading. The train lines reopened at 12:15 GMT.

It's a future the majority of Canadians appear happy to embrace, for now. The Cambridges have only visited parts of the country where people have applauded them coming, not questioned their existence. They know the monarchy needs to be seen and appreciated to survive. The public presence, at strategic points during the tour, of Prince George and Princess Charlotte will have bolstered, at the very least temporarily, the survival of this ancient institution. Of course, what has been left unsaid this week is that Prince William and Prince George are not next in line. Prince Charles is waiting in the wings and his appeal in Canada is not as great as that of his son or his grandson. Monarchists argue that's down to the allure of youth. Those seeking an elected, Canadian-born head of state see a chink in the armoury of the House of Windsor. At the start of the trip, I was very struck by the cheering of the crowd. On more than one occasion, it bordered on ecstatic. The focus of their fervour was a youthful-looking man with a wife and children. I saw him once hang out of his car, waving, before his motorcade moved off. This wasn't a jetlagged prince embracing rock politics - rather, the tattooed boxer politician Justin Trudeau. I've watched the Canadian prime minister weave along a red carpet shaking hands, hugging people and placing his hand on his heart. The warmth of his reception has been striking to someone who lives in the UK where a more jaded view of all politicians tends to be on display. Mr Trudeau, with his political opponents off duty, in Victoria and Vancouver where I've seen him in action, has appeared happy. It's probably helped that while here, the duke and the duchess have been showcasing some of his policies. When was the last time you saw a senior member of the Royal Family with refugees in the UK? Precisely. But in Canada, it's not a fraught issue. When the Almahameed family met Prince William and his wife, the world was reminded of Mr Trudeau's open policy of welcoming, in their thousands, those fleeing the war in Syria. The prime minister's attempts to demonstrate he is repairing his country's relationship with its indigenous population have proved more fraught. William and Kate have met their representatives repeatedly. And repeatedly, the sense of hurt has been palpable. Speech after speech has focused on both past and current injustices inflicted on a people that make up 4% of the population. Canada's aboriginal people have a deep and historic connection with the Crown. Its representative, Prince William, heard their entreaties. He'll want to help, but can he? Can an unelected head of state in waiting do anything meaningful? The prince will have plenty of time to mull it over and act if he so chooses. As things stand, there'll be many more visits by the Cambridges to Canada.
For eight days, an important aspect of Canada's future has been on display.

Trevor Bayliss will take over the management of the team for this summer's games, which include the ashes against his native country. The 52-year-old replaces Peter Moores, who was sacked from the job in May. Bayliss has previously coached Australia and Sri Lanka, who he took to the World Cup final in 2011. "It's an honour to be appointed England coach," said Bayliss. "I firmly believe that the team has a bright future." Bayliss will take up his new role in June, in time for the start of the Ashes series against Australia which begins in July. Malaki Leo Boadu Hughes, from Saltney, Flintshire, was fatally injured in the incident at his grandmother's house on 12 September last year. The hearing was told Carole Hughes left him on a sofa to go upstairs before she heard an "almighty crash". Coroner John Gittins recorded an accidental conclusion at the hearing in Ruthin. In a statement read to the court Mrs Hughes said: "It [the crash] was so loud that I was immediately in a panic." She ran downstairs to find the fire surround on top of Malaki and managed to move it off him but he was not responding. He was given CPR until an ambulance crew took over on arrival. Malaki was taken to the Countess of Chester hospital where his death was confirmed. A post mortem examination found he died from a traumatic rupture of the heart. Centre Piutau made 12 Premiership appearances for Wasps last season, having joined them on loan in February. The 31-year-old previously played for Chiefs and Highlanders in Super Rugby before moving to Japan in 2012. "He will give the squad a boost in a crucial period of the campaign," interim head coach Mark Tainton said. "I know Siale from his time at Wasps and he's a big presence in the midfield who carries hard and is a reliable defender." From "Where does the name Lady Bay come from?" to "What would a map of the caves look like?". Here's how we have got on with answering your questions. We put the question to the city council's archaeologist Scott Lomax who said there isn't just one cave system across Nottingham, but in fact hundreds of cave complexes. He said the caves have never been joined together but here is a map of them across the city. The main concentration of caves is in the city centre, around the medieval town, between Parliament Street and Castle Boulevard and Canal Street, he said. He added: "Caves do, however, extend out of the city centre, predominantly along roads including Mansfield Road, Derby Road and Alfreton Road, reflecting post-medieval and modern development of the city. "There are some caves in suburban areas such as Old Basford, Sherwood, The Park, Sneinton and St Ann's. There is one cave beneath Wollaton Hall." Mr Lomax said more caves were being discovered all the time so the above map will change. We went underneath a city pub to explore a newly discovered cave... Mr Wahid was prompted to ask the question after a lengthy debate with a friend from Banbury about how many young people there were in the county, and said he "was intrigued to see what our population looks like in regards to age". After wading through a lot of figures from the Office of National Statistics, we found the average age of someone from Nottinghamshire is 41.5 years. These are the most recent figures and are from 2015. Martin contacted us because he is often asked by people visiting the area and "it is something I have often wondered myself". After a trawl of the internet and conversations with historians unfortunately it still remains a bit of a mystery.

I would understand people's shock and horror if I had - but I did not. Quite the reverse. Anjem Choudary is nothing like Mahatma Gandhi. Nor Nelson Mandela for that matter. Indeed, that was my point and I am saddened if it has been misconstrued. Let me be clear what I was saying - the legislation being devised to deal with the former will need to be very carefully drafted to avoid scooping up anti-establishment figures such as the latter. The home secretary and the prime minister are looking for a way to silence individuals whose extremist rhetoric helps radicalise people into supporting so-called Islamic State and Al Qaeda. Such support can and, tragically, sometimes does lead to violence that threatens our very way of life. It is the responsibility of ministers to consider how to counter such threats to national security and individual safety. But there are concerns that the definition of extremism being used by the government is too broad and risks undermining the very freedoms ministers say they are trying to defend. The Home Office's Prevent strategy defines extremism as "vocal or active opposition to fundamental British values including democracy, the rule of law, individual liberty, mutual respect and tolerance of different faiths and beliefs". Denying the right to free speech to anyone who falls foul of this description has already worried senior parliamentarians. The former attorney general Dominic Grieve QC says he is concerned that extremism powers could result in people being prosecuted for having a point of view. The former head of MI5, Eliza Manningham-Buller has similar anxieties: "I am afraid that it is a profound irony that we are seeking to protect our values against this pernicious ideology by trying to bar views that are described, too vaguely, as 'non-violent' extremist - but which fall short of incitement to violence or to racial or ethnic hatred - which is already forbidden by law." This is the dilemma I was highlighting. Putting new powers into statute may deal with one immediate problem, but some speculate how a future government might exploit such powers to silence dissent and criticism. There is an irony in this, not lost on the prime minister and home secretary. They wish to defend fundamental British values such as free speech, but to do so they find themselves looking at ways to deny some that very right. It is far from easy. Scottish Care said "radical action" was needed to reform home care services. Its study found the number of people assessed as requiring free personal and nursing care had reduced after a tightening of eligibility criteria. The Scottish government said free personal care benefits around 77,000 people in Scotland each year. A spokeswoman said: "We are absolutely committed to delivering the policy." Scottish Care, the representative body for the country's independent social care services, said older people who would have received support at an earlier stage for tasks like housework or cooking were now receiving much less support or none at all. Its report "Bringing Home Care" will be launched at a conference in Glasgow on Friday. Scottish Care's chief executive officer Dr Donald Macaskill said: "Whilst we fully support the existence of free personal and nursing care and value its role in supporting people with social care costs, what we have seen since its introduction in 2002 is a move towards less people receiving more care. "Whilst this reflects the reality of constrained budgets, it means that many older people are being denied the support they need to enable them to live for as long as possible in their own homes." Dr Macaskill said delaying or denying access to care was financially "counterproductive" as it would probably lead to more hospital visits. It also had a negative impact on older people's health and wellbeing, he added. A Scottish government spokeswoman said: "The intensity of home care for older people is increasing, with more time spent on average with those in receipt of care, enabling those with the highest level of need to stay in their own home for longer. "We have also taken action to protect and grow our social care services. In the current year there will be almost half a billion pounds of NHS investment in social care and integration. "Through this, this government is enabling, for the first time, adult care workers in Scotland to be paid the real Living Wage of £8.45 from 1st May 2017. This will benefit up to 40,000 people."

French prosecutors - acting on information supplied by the World Anti Doping Authority - suspect Senegalese Diack, 82, of receiving money in 2011. The IAAF's new president Lord Coe was questioned by French police on Tuesday, having offered to co-operate. Athletics' world governing body says it is "fully co-operating" with inquiries. It confirmed police had carried out searches and interviews at its Monaco headquarters. Wada president Sir Craig Reedie told BBC Sport he was unable to comment on the Diack case until the publication of a report by an independent commission into the allegations of systemic doping. However, the organisation did confirm that the French criminal investigation was a result of "information passed on" by its commission "to the relevant authorities". Wada will publish the findings of its report into allegations of widespread doping on Monday, in Geneva. The International Olympic Committee, of which Diack is an honorary member, said its ethics commission will also investigate the claims. Diack ended his 16-year reign as IAAF president in August, when Briton Coe, a double Olympic 1500m winner, was elected as his replacement. The IAAF has previously denied claims of widespread doping in the sport. The French financial prosecutor's office said Diack and adviser Habib Cisse were arrested on Sunday and released on Tuesday, after being "interrogated" and put under investigation. The IAAF's former anti-doping doctor Gabriel Dolle is also part of the investigation, according to AFP. Last December, German broadcaster ARD/WDR alleged in a documentary there had been systematic doping in Russian athletics and implicated the IAAF in covering up the problem. The Russian Athletics Federation (RAF) said the allegations were "lies". And in August, the Sunday Times and ARD/WDR said they had obtained data that exposed the "extraordinary extent of cheating" in the sport. The IAAF and the Wada said it would investigate the claims at the time. Wada president Sir Craig Reedie told BBC Sport he was unable to comment on the Diack case until the publication of a report by an independent commission into the allegations of systemic doping. Media playback is not supported on this device Speaking on the day of his election in August, 59-year-old Coe said suggestions his organisation were complicit in a doping scandal were "just inaccurate". In its statement, the French financial prosecutor said: "Diack is suspected of receiving money in exchange for deferring sanctions for several Russian athletes who were found guilty of doping in 2011, ahead of the Olympic Games. "Diack and Cisse were arrested on Sunday and released on Tuesday, after being interrogated by police officers and judges. "They were presented to a judge on Tuesday who informed them that they had been put under a formal investigation. The investigation also continues into whether other persons were involved in suspected corruption." Thiam, 22, arrives from French Ligue 1 club Dijon, having netted nine times in 38 games on loan at Clermont last term.

Jawad Fairooz and Matar Matar were detained in May after resigning from parliament in protest at the handling of the protests. Mr Matar told the BBC they had been tortured in prison. They were prosecuted in a security court on charges of taking part in illegal protests and defaming the country. It is not clear if they still face trial in a civilian court. Civilian courts took over jurisdiction after King Hamad Bin Issa Al Khalifa lifted a state of emergency in June. Mr Matar told the BBC he believed his arrest had been intended to put a pressure on his al-Wifaq party. "At some stages we were tortured," he said. "In one of the cases we were beaten." Human rights lawyer Mohamed al-Tajir was also released. He was detained in April having defended people arrested during the Saudi-backed suppression of protests in March. Correspondents say their release appears to be an attempt at defusing tensions in the country, a key US ally in the region that hosts the US Navy's 5th Fleet. Bahrain's King Hamad Bin Issa Al Khalifa recently accepted a series of reforms drawn up by a government-backed committee created to address grievances that emerged during the protests. The kingdom's Shia community makes up about 70% of the population but many say they are discriminated against by the minority Sunni monarchy.
Bahrain has freed two former Shia opposition MPs arrested in the wake of widespread anti-government protests.

Media playback is not supported on this device The Reds started third - three points behind leaders Chelsea - but defeated Bristol 3-0, while the Blues lost 2-1 at Manchester City. Birmingham began the day two points behind Chelsea, but could only draw 2-2 against Notts County. Goals from Natasha Dowie, Lucy Bronze and a penalty from Fara Williams gave Liverpool victory. The afternoon had started with Chelsea boosted by the absence from the Manchester City team sheet of several key players, four days ahead of City's Continental Cup final against Arsenal. And when Birmingham went a goal down inside three minutes, Aileen Whelan heading Notts in front, the prospects for Emma Hayes' team appeared still brighter. Fiona Sullivan's close-range strike then doubled Notts County's lead as Birmingham began to drift out of the reckoning, but Chelsea's fortunes also took a downward turn when Jill Scott's 24th-minute drive flew into the net for a Man City opener. Ten minutes later Toni Duggan fired in from 18 yards to double the lead and suddenly Chelsea had to hope that results elsewhere would remain in their favour. Birmingham pulled a goal back through Kirsty Linnet and were then awarded a penalty two minutes before half-time - but Karen Carney's spot-kick was saved by Carly Telford. As Carney's shot was being saved, Liverpool were going agonisingly close to taking the lead against Bristol Academy, Bronze heading against the bar - but 10 minutes after the interval they finally got their noses in front, Dowie giving them the lead in Widnes. By that time however, substitute Hannah Keryakoplis had equalised for Birmingham to put Dave Parker's side back in the hunt. The Reds doubled their lead when Bronze drilled in a low cross-cross shot, and 20 minutes from time the unlikely title defence looked on as Williams' penalty virtually assured victory and gave a crucial boost to their goal difference. But even as the Reds' celebrations were going on, Chelsea were putting themselves back in contention thanks to Gilly Flaherty's header. That left Blues with 19 minutes plus stoppage time to get the goal and point they needed to make sure of taking the title. The task was made a little easier when City defender Abbie McManus was sent off for elbowing. But despite piling on the pressure they were unable to force an equaliser and - once full-time was confirmed at Birmingham too - it was Liverpool's former Chelsea manager Matt Beard who ended the season with the biggest smile in the WSL. The EIS-Further Education Lecturers Association said there were widespread disparities between wages at different colleges. The walkout could lead to disruption for some students in the run up to exams. The organisation representing colleges has described the dispute as "unnecessary". Lecturers voted by 96.4% to 3.6% in favour of strike action which could take place after colleges return from the Easter break. EIS general secretary Larry Flanagan said: "This dispute arose following the reneging by college management of a binding national agreement delivering fair pay that was reached more than a year ago. "Instead of working to deliver that agreement - that was freely entered into - college managers have spent the last 12 months dragging their collective feet and attempting to undermine the pay harmonisation that they themselves agreed to in March last year. "The level of duplicity that has been displayed by college management regarding this pay deal has been simply staggering." EIS-FELA President John Kelly said lecturers did not want to strike but they had been "infuriated" by the actions of college management. A spokesperson for the Colleges Scotland Employers' Association said: "It is hugely disappointing that the EIS are planning to take strike action that will badly affect college students in the run up to their exams. "Time and again we have tried to engage with the EIS on pay and conditions of service, but they remain unwilling to discuss change to professionalise the sector and deliver better value to students and the public purse. "Our door remains open and we are happy to continue discussions with the EIS, but they have to accept that we both signed up to a total package in March 2016, including changes to terms and conditions, not a pay-only deal."

John Swinney was responding to the contents of a draft government discussion document on the country's financial position after independence. The year-old paper said the volatility in projecting North Sea oil revenues created financial uncertainty. It said an oil fund could increase stability but might mean spending cuts. Mr Swinney said the challenges ahead were not unusual. He explained: "There would be economic challenges as there would be in any constitutional situation. "We are wrestling with economic and financial challenges today as part of the UK and most other countries are wrestling with these factors and of course an independent Scotland would have to operate sustainable public finances and invest in the economy. "These issues would have to be managed by an independent Scotland and they would be managed much more effectively by an independent Scotland then the are by the UK." The Scottish government said the discussion paper had largely been overtaken by events. It set out challenges, risks and opportunities that ministers believe Scotland would have in the event of a "yes" vote in the referendum. It provides an insight into government thinking in the period following last spring's UK budget. The paper recorded a high level of volatility in projected revenues from North Sea oil and said this created considerable uncertainty in financial planning. It pointed out that revenues could also be higher than expected and that independence would give Holyrood greater power to manage its money. Mr Swinney said: "Certainly in an independent Scotland, a larger proportion of its public finances would relate to the revenues coming from oil and gas, but not as much as Norway, for example." The paper suggested accumulating cash in an oil fund would help provide stability but says this could lead to reduced public spending. The SNP has said it would like to see an oil fund set up in the event of independence to provide a revenue stream for future generations of Scots. On that issue, the finance minister said: "We would start to invest in an oil fund at a moment when we could see the opportunity within the management of the public finances - not a commitment I can give today." He added that the Scottish government was engaging in a "dispassionate approach" to the way it was informing the people of Scotland about how an independence might be. Scottish Liberal Democrat leader Willie Rennie said the "buried document blows a crater" in the SNP's independence spending promises. He added: "Publicly, the SNP talk about protecting the public sector after independence but behind closed doors they concede that public sector job cuts could be necessary to keep costs down. "Even setting up something as fundamental as a tax collection system for an independent Scotland could cost us twice as much as Scotland's share of HMRC costs as part of the UK. "The sums don't add up." Scottish Labour leader Johann Lamont insisted Mr Swinney was in denial over civil servant advice about the dangers of basing the plans on a "volatile and diminishing commodity like North Sea oil". She added: "They are telling him of an even deeper public spending crisis coming after the referendum. They are telling him of the problem of an ageing population. "Yet when I raise these issues the SNP deny there is a deeper crisis coming. That's not what his own officials are telling him."
Scotland's finance secretary admitted there would be economic challenges in an independent Scotland but claimed it would be better placed to handle them.

Spurs made the Champions League for the first time during Redknapp's four-year tenure at the club, reaching the quarter-finals in 2011. The 69-year-old says he would not swap manager Mauricio Pochettino's starting XI for any other side in the division. "They have been fantastic under Pochettino," Redknapp told BBC Radio 5 live's Friday Football Social. "I have absolutely loved the way they have played - their football, the pace of the full-backs. "Tottenham will go on and win the Premier League in the next three or four years." Spurs sit third in the Premier League, 10 points behind leaders Chelsea, but lost to Liverpool on Saturday and at Gent in the first leg of their Europa League last-32 tie on Thursday. They have not won the title since 1961 and finished third last year after looking like champions Leicester's main challengers for long periods. But Tottenham expect to have a new 61,000-seater stadium completed in time for the 2018-19 season, which Redknapp, who left the club in 2012, believes will play a big part in any future success. "They've not been up there with the big spenders," he added. "Now with the new stadium the crowds are going to nearly double. "The man who owns the club, Joe Lewis, is up there with the richest men in the world. So there's certainly no shortage of money. "Maybe they do run out of steam, maybe he [Pochettino] hasn't been able to rotate and could do with another three or four top players to give him the strength in depth. "If you said to me 'go and manage any team you want', I would take Tottenham's best XI."

John Foster, 72, of Moodiesburn, was accused of causing a collision between two vehicles on the A72 near Peebles on 4 June last year. Robert Kerr, of Glasgow, died in hospital following the accident. Mr Foster made no plea and the case was continued for further examination. He was released on bail. Breath, bodily odours and urine are all amazingly revealing about general health. Even the humble cold can give off an odour, thanks to the thick bacteria-ridden mucus that ends up in the back of the throat. The signs are not apparent to everyone - but some super-smellers are very sensitive to the odours. Joy Milne, for example, noticed her husband's smell had changed shortly before he was diagnosed with Parkinson's disease. Humans can detect nearly 10,000 different smells. Formed by chemicals in the air, they are absorbed by little hairs, made of extremely sensitive nerve fibres, hanging from the nose's olfactory receptors. And the human sense of smell is 10,000 times more sensitive than the sense of taste. But dogs, as the old joke might have had it, smell even better. Their ability to detect four times as many odours as humans makes them a potential early warning system for a range of diseases. Research suggesting dogs' could sniff out cancers, for example, was first published about 10 years ago. And there have been many tales of dogs repeatedly sniffing an area of their owner's body, only for it to turn out to be hiding a tumour. What they are smelling are the "volatile molecules" given off by cells when they become cancerous. Some studies suggest dogs can be 93% accurate. Others suggest they can detect very small tumours before clinical tests can. And yet more studies have produced mixed results. At Milton Keynes University Hospital, a small team has recently begun to collect human urine samples to test dogs' ability to detect the smell of prostate cancer. The patients had symptoms such as difficulty urinating or a change in flow, which could turn out to be prostate, bladder or liver cancer. Rowena Fletcher, head of research and development at the hospital, says the role of the dogs - which have been trained by Medical Detection Dogs - is to pick out samples that smell of cancer. Further down the line, a clinical test will show if the dogs' diagnosis is correct. She says the potential for using dogs in this way is far-reaching - even if it is not practical to have a dog in every surgery. "We hope one day that there could be an electronic machine on every GP's desk which could test a urine sample for diseases by smelling it," she says. "But first we need to pick up the pattern of what the dogs are smelling." And that's the key. Dogs can't tell us what their noses are detecting, but scientists believe that different cancers could produce different smells, although some might also be very similar. Lab tests to understand what these highly-trained dogs are smelling could then inform the development of 'electronic noses' to detect the same molecules. These might then give rise to better diagnostic tests in the future. The potential for using smell to test for a wide range of diseases is huge, Ms Fletcher says. Bacteria, cancers and chronic diseases could all have their own odour - which may be imperceptible to only the most sensitive humans, but obvious to dogs. It may be possible in the future to use disease odours as the basis for a national screening programme or to test everybody at risk of a certain cancer in a particular age group. However, there are fewer than 20 dogs in the UK trained to detect cancer at present. Training more will take more funding and time. On the positive side, all dogs are eligible to be trained provided they are keen on searching and hunting. Whatever their breed or size, it's our four-legged friend's astounding sense of smell which could unlock a whole new way of detecting human diseases. Highlights from Scotland included a performance by Stevie McCrorie of The Voice and a specially commissioned sketch from the stars of TV comedy show Burniston. Nationally the appeal raised more than £37m on Friday night, beating last year's total of £32.6m. The money will be spent on children's projects across the UK.

When, in 1977, James Earl Carter Jr blew into Washington DC "like a Southern breeze", the 39th President of the United States symbolised a bright, new future. He'd emerged from the obscurity of a peanut farm in his native Georgia as a man of honesty, armed with the slogan "Trust Me". With the country still reeling from the Watergate scandal, this platform had much appeal. With unprecedented informality, he insisted on being called Jimmy, and he and his wife Rosalynn walked hand-in-hand from Capitol Hill to the White House on Inauguration day. Yet, Jimmy Carter was dumped from the presidency after serving just one four-year term, the first elected president to be defeated in office since 1932. But in the more than 30 years since, his second act as a world statesman has changed his legacy. Born in Plains, Georgia in 1924, as a child, Jimmy was expected to work long hours on the farm, and home life was austere. His nearest neighbours were his black staff who became his closest friends. When his father died of cancer, Jimmy Carter abandoned a seven-year career in the navy as a submariner to take control of the family farm. He turned its fortunes around and became wealthy in the process. He entered politics in the 1960s, elected first as Georgia state senator during a special election - starting his campaign only two weeks before voting. After an initial defeat for the governorship of Georgia, he was elected to the state's top office in 1970 - a position he would use as a springboard to the White House. As a office holder, Mr Carter was driven by a mixture of born-again Christian spirit, a sense of independence and a liberal tradition. The latter was inherited, not from his father, who was a white segregationist, but from his mother, Lillian, who joined the Peace Corps at the age of 68, and spent two years working as a nurse in India. His sister, a faith healer, had by then convinced him to commit himself totally to God. As president, he continued to preach at Sunday school for children and always said grace before meals, even at state dinners with foreign leaders. After a narrow election victory against incumbent Gerald Ford in the 1976 presidential election, problems quickly mounted for Mr Carter. At home, the oil crisis had produced high inflation and unemployment, and he struggled to persuade Americans to accept the required austerity measures. The high-point of the Carter years was the signing of the Camp David Accords in 1978 in which Egypt formally recognised the state of Israel. He also signed a treating returning the Panama canal to Panama. But subsequent events conspired against him. First, the Shah of Iran was overthrown and 66 Americans were taken hostage in Tehran. Then the Soviets invaded Afghanistan. The resulting US boycott of the 1980 Olympic Games in Moscow failed to gain enough support to get them cancelled. He cut off diplomatic relations with Iran and introduced a trade embargo. But the public did not believe he was being tough enough and his popularity slumped. When an attempt to rescue the hostages failed, and eight Americans military members were killed, Carter appeared even weaker. To compound his plight, Iran delayed the release of the hostages until after the new president, Ronald Reagan, was sworn in. It was left to Reagan to make America feel good about itself once more. Instead of disappearing, Jimmy Carter used the prestige of his former office to become a diplomat and mediator across the world under the auspices of his newly founded Carter Centre, based in Atlanta. He worked behind the scenes to keep the Middle East peace process on track, persuaded the former North Korean dictator, Kim Il Sung, to open discussions with South Korea. Mr Carter led a delegation that persuaded leaders in Haiti to surrender power in 1994 and he brokered a ceasefire in Bosnia that helped pave the way for the future peace treaty there. He very quickly added election monitoring to the Carter Centre, famously denouncing the 1989 election in General Noriega's Panama. then advised Daniel Ortega on organising fair elections in Nicaragua which, ironically, resulted in Ortega's defeat. The Carter Centre has also established health programmes which pushed for the eradication of guinea worm, and is successfully tackling river blindness. As Mr Carter continued working across the world, his reputation as a failed one-term president soon began to subside. Such is his worldwide standing after leaving office, Fidel Castro allowed him to broadcast live to the Cuban people in Spanish, despite knowing he would criticise the Cuban leader's civil rights record. Mr Carter is not without his critics. Some non-governmental organisations working in the field have accused him of often acting unilaterally and have questioned his commitment to longer-term projects. In 2002, he was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize for his "decades of untiring effort to find peaceful solutions to international conflicts". In his acceptance speech, Mr Carter said "war may sometimes be a necessary evil. But no matter how necessary, it is always an evil, never a good. We will not learn how to live together in peace by killing each other's children". The former president has spoken strongly out against some decisions who followed him in the presidency - including the war in Iraq under George W Bush and continuing mass surveillance under Barack Obama, saying Edward Snowden should be considered for a pardon. He has also criticised Israel's actions with respect to Palestine in a 2006 book "Palestine - Peace not Apartheid", which attracted criticism from many elected leaders in his own Democratic party. Since 2007, Mr Carter has also become a part of The Elders, a group founded by Nelson Mandela of elder global leaders who no longer hold public office, along with Kofi Annan, Ela Bhatt and Mary Robinson. In August 2015, Mr Carter announced cancer initially found in his liver had spread to become a melanoma in four spots on his brain and that he was to undergo treatment. In December that year he told a Sunday school class in Plains, Georgia, that an MRI scan had revealed no sign of the brain cancer.
Former US President Jimmy Carter is now remembered for more than his time in the White House.

The 32-year-old is suing the club for in the region of £2m over disability discrimination after he was diagnosed with testicular cancer in October 2013. The Argentine, who was released in May 2015, was giving evidence on day one of an employment tribunal on Tuesday. He says he was left out of the team to avoid triggering a new one-year deal. Gutierrez claims he had to start 80 games during a four-year contract signed in September 2011 in order to trigger a further year at the end of the 2014-15 season. However, he says then temporary boss John Carver waited until he could not hit his 80-game target before starting him in the final five matches of the campaign. In a witness statement presented to the tribunal in Birmingham, Gutierrez said: "Due to their concerns about my cancer I consider that the club then ensured that I would not be selected to start in a sufficient number of matches to trigger the option. "In late April 2015 I was told the club may consider offering me a new playing contract but would only consider this at the end of the season. "However, I knew by this stage the club had taken steps to ensure the automatic option in the contract was not triggered. I found it difficult to believe that they would in any event offer me a new contract." Gutierrez, who is now at Spanish side Deportivo La Coruna, claims Newcastle's discrimination against him began in December 2013, two months after he had surgery. He says Alan Pardew, his manager at the time, told him he did not feature in the club's future plans and that he was free to leave. "It came as a great shock so soon after my cancer treatment," added Gutierrez, who left the room in tears at one point during the morning session, saying he was "not here for the money" but because the way he was treated by the club "was not right". "I believe the reason for this was due to my cancer diagnosis and very recent operation to remove the tumour as I had clearly been a crucial part of Newcastle's first-team line-up to this point. "I think they feared that my illness would mean that I could no longer play at the highest level and they considered me to be a liability rather than an asset to the club." After further treatment in the summer of 2014 when the cancer returned, Gutierrez says he felt neglected by Newcastle. "During my chemotherapy treatment, neither the manager, Alan Pardew, nor any club directors contacted me to see how I was feeling or to congratulate me on my recovery," he said. "This was incredibly disappointing after everything I had done for the club." Newcastle insist they did contact Gutierrez during his treatment. The tribunal is expected to last for 10 days, with evidence from Pardew and Carver to follow.
Ex-Newcastle midfielder Jonas Gutierrez claims the club deliberately did not start him in matches so they could release him after cancer treatment.

AssetCo, which provides and maintains equipment for London Fire Brigade (LFB), is facing a creditor's petition from Northern Bank over a £1.3m debt. The Fire Brigades Union said LFB faced a "serious crisis" as the stock could potentially be sold to recover money. LFB said it would not speculate but planned for "all events". Under a private finance initiative AssetCo provides and maintains fire engines and equipment for LFB. It is understood that in the event of non-repayment of debt the stock could be sold off or a new buyer for the contract with LFB would be sought. Failing these, an offer could be made to LFB to buy out the entire contract or parts of it. The BBC understands the LFB could consider such an offer but would prefer another supplier to come forward. Ben Sprung, London FBU regional organiser, said: "We could end up with all London's fire engines and kit being put up for sale to settle the debts. "It is a scandal that the ownership and maintenance of critical equipment is in the hands of a company which has reached this state. "The fire authority need to set out what it has done and what fall-back plans it has. The mayor needs to get a grip on this before it's too late." LFB said it would not be left without fire engines. A spokesman said: "We plan for all events that could affect the fire and rescue service we provide." In a statement on its website AssetCo said the company was in "constructive discussions", adding: "Northern Bank based in Belfast, Northern Ireland, has lodged a creditors' petition in respect of its debt of £1.3m owed by the holding company. "This effectively seeks to improve the bank's position, and the position of its guarantor, ahead of other banks and creditors, and if not settled the petition will be heard on 29 June 2011."

Adam Rooney shot Aberdeen into an early lead but Iain Vigurs levelled soon after following an Ash Taylor mistake. Taylor was then harshly penalised for a high challenge on Ross Draper, with Greg Tansey tucking away the spot-kick. The unfortunate Taylor then touched the ball on for Carl Tremarco to head in a third before the Dons had two penalty claims rejected. The end of Aberdeen's 12-game unbeaten run leaves Derek McInnes' side three points behind Premiership leaders Celtic, who have a game in hand and a vastly superior goal difference. Media playback is not supported on this device The Dons were looking for their first win over Inverness in three attempts this season and made a strong start. Former Caley Thistle defender Graeme Shinnie drove in from the left and thundered in a shot which Owain Fon Williams touched onto the bar without Willie Collum noticing. It was not the last time the referee would upset the visitors. Moments later, however, Craig Storie burned through the home defence with a fabulous driving run and provided a lovely weighted pass for Rooney to slam home via a flick off defender Danny Devine. Then came the first of Taylor's errors and the game was all square. Liam Polworth tried to thread a ball in to Miles Storey but Taylor was always getting there first, only for the defender's clumsy touch to allow Vigurs to tuck the ball home home with a composed finish. Aberdeen's Niall McGinn curled a free kick wide of the target before Tremarco nodded wide from close range after a corner squeezed through a cluster of players to reach him at the back post. The visitors' plans were disrupted when they lost winger Jonny Hayes with what looked like a hamstring injury and they were relieved when Tansey, a target for Aberdeen in the transfer window, blasted a curling free-kick narrowly away from the top corner. Tansey hit the net six minutes into the second half with a cool spot-kick after the game exploded into life with a controversial decision from Collum. Draper executed a one-two and got the slightest touch on the ball as both he and Taylor raised their feet high in the air, with the home player then crashing to the turf without any apparent contact. Aberdeen were rattled by the decision and by the hosts' fierce pressing. Rooney attempted an overhead kick from close range but could not connect properly. Maximum points and a place in the top half of the table were secured for Inverness when the impressive Miles Storey dinked a ball into the six-yard box and a stretching Taylor could only steer the ball towards Tremarco, who nodded home at the back post. Collum's assistant initially flagged for offside but was correctly overruled by the man in the middle. Dons duo Shinnie and Taylor felt they should have had penalties after going to ground in a frantic finish but Inverness, who played with a vigour that has been missing for much of the season, held on for a deserved victory. Nearly 40% of a group of trial participants fitted with one of the £80,000 battery-operated devices ended up with healthy heart function. Researchers at the University of Newcastle said the pumps could help solve the shortage of donor hearts. The devices are usually fitted when patients are waiting for a new organ. Lead researcher Djordje Jakovljevic, from the Institute of Cellular Medicine at the university, said: "We talk about these devices as a bridge-to-transplant, something which can keep a patient alive until a heart is available for transplantation. "However, we know that sometimes patients recover to such an extent that they no longer need a heart transplant. "For the first time what we have shown is that heart function is restored in some patients." The pump, known as a left ventricular assist device (LVAD), is usually fitted in patients with end stage heart failure. The trial involved 58 male patients who underwent treadmill tests of their heart fitness. Of the 16 who recovered enough to have their LVAD pump removed, 38% demonstrated a heart function equal to that of a healthy individual of the same age. The next stage of the study is to determine why the device is "curing" some patients and identify those who will respond best to having one fitted.

Back then, Gachot was an impressive young driver for the recently formed Jordan Grand Prix team. He had caught the eye with a number of top-10 finishes in the first half of the 1991 season, as well as winning the Le Mans 24 Hours race. However, just two days after setting the fastest lap at the Hungarian Grand Prix, he was in court. Earlier that year, Gachot had been involved in a minor accident with a London taxi. An argument with the driver ensued, with Gachot producing a can of CS gas and spraying it in his face. "I really didn't think it was an issue," said Gachot, now 53. "We are talking about something that was really petty and basically I defended myself using tear gas. "I thought this was what you were supposed to do and never knew it was considered a weapon. I really felt I was within my rights and didn't do anything wrong." At the time, CS gas was illegal in Britain - but Gachot did not realise the gravity of the situation. He expected a fine and a couple of days in prison at the most. Instead he was sentenced to six months. "I had no idea that my freedom was at stake," he said. "Once I was in the prison I thought I would spend the weekend there but then my lawyer came in on the Monday and said it would be months." It ended up being two months, with Gachot's original sentence reduced on appeal. However, it was long enough to leave Jordan's team owner Eddie Jordan needing a driver to fill his seat on a temporary basis. That driver was Schumacher. "Someone at the prison told me that the team had taken a German and they didn't need me any more," said Gachot. "Every time he came in front of my cell he made the noise of a Formula 1 car, telling me that this driver was very good and they didn't need me." Gachot's tormentor may have been teasing, but Schumacher was certainly making an impression. Media playback is not supported on this device On his F1 debut, the then 22-year-old produced a stunning display to secure seventh on the grid for Jordan. A problem with his car would result in Schumacher failing to finish the race itself, but his performance in qualifying had done enough to convince those at Jordan that they had a real talent on their hands. It had also impressed other teams, and Benetton moved quickly to secure his services. From then on, his rise to F1 dominance was rapid, with the first of his seven world titles coming in 1994. By the time Gachot had been released from prison, he had missed four grands prix and his seat at Jordan had been filled by Alex Zanardi. He ended up with Larrousse but was unable to replicate the form he had shown in the first half of the season at Jordan. After a year away from the sport, Gachot had two seasons at Pacific before leaving F1 for good in 1995. By then, Schumacher was a two-time world champion and about to embark on a career at Ferrari. Their careers may have taken very different paths, but Gachot insists he feels no animosity towards Schumacher. "Schumacher deserved the career he had," he added. "It was not me that made him, he made himself, he took the opportunity and did the best with it. "I have regrets for sure and things I could have done differently but I am at peace with it."

The country's football federation was also fined US$1m (£650,000) and ordered to pay 8m euros (£5.9m) in damages. Morocco had expressed concerns about hosting this year's event following the outbreak of the Ebola virus in Africa. They asked for the tournament to be delayed until 2016, but the Confederation of African Football (Caf) rejected the request. Equatorial Guinea were named as replacement host for the 16-team event, while Morocco, who had qualified as hosts, were expelled. Caf also fined hosts Equatorial Guinea US$100,000 (£65,000) for crowd trouble during Thursday's Africa Cup of Nations semi-final loss to Ghana. Tunisian Football Association president Wadie Jary was also banned from all activities by Caf after his organisation failed to apologise for accusing African football's governing body of cheating. Tunisia made the allegations after being beaten by quarter-final opponents Equatorial Guinea in controversial circumstances. The 2015 Africa Cup of Nations finishes on Sunday, when Ghana and Ivory Coast meet in the final in Bata.
Morocco have been banned from the next two Africa Cup of Nations after failing to host this year's tournament.

But Lord Lloyd-Webber has left the stage clear for the creative brains behind Committee or The Public Administration and Constitutional Affairs Committee Takes Oral Evidence on Whitehall's Relationship With Kids Company - to give the musical its full title. It is based on the verbatim transcript of the grilling of Kids Company founder Camila Batmanghelidjh and chair of trustees Alan Yentob (who is a BBC presenter and former BBC creative director). Committee members who appear as characters in the show include Conservative former Welsh Secretaries Cheryl Gillan and David Jones and veteran Welsh Labour MP Paul Flynn. London's Donmar Warehouse stresses "this production has not been authorised by any participant or Parliament" but as a veteran observer of these things I'd suggest there is little for Parliament to get too upset about. It displays a fair insight into the way select committees work. Early on, a clerk reveals to the audience: "All select committees are hoping their report gets their chair an appearance on the Today programme - that's the golden thing, the 8:10am slot on the Today programme". Cue a tuneful chorus of "the 8:10 am slot" from the cast. Director Adam Penford said (during rehearsals): "The idea of doing a new verbatim musical based on the transcript of a select committee hearing is quite a crazy idea but potentially incredibly exciting. "Whilst it's part of the musical function to explore how we hold ourselves to account as a society it also asks multiple questions about the relationship of government to the people." The production presented new challenges for the actors. Robert Hands, who plays David Jones, said: "I've never played a real person before and I didn't know I could do it, I was a bit worried about it actually." He needn't have worried. Indeed, every member of the cast is thoroughly convincing and instantly recognisable to anyone who watched the original hearing or knows the MPs involved. Cheryl Gillan went to see it with other committee members. Her verdict? "A very interesting treatment of a very serious matter using the words that are in the public domain but surreal to see yourself portrayed on stage." Paul Flynn is played by Anthony O'Donnell ('Dai Davies' in Stella), who delivers Flynn questions - "a spiel of psychobabble, a torrent of words, verbal ectoplasm" directed at Batmanghelidjh - with the gusto of the original. The Newport West MP tells me he's looking forward to seeing it and meeting O'Donnell. He remembers Camila Batmanghelidjh's evidence with frustration. "It was all about distraction and changing the subject, throwing a dead cat on the table." A frosty exchange between the two of them about spending £150 of the charity's money on a pair of shoes for a client is given a suitable theatrical treatment. David Jones recalls: "It was the strangest parliamentary event I have been involved in. It was bizarre, the whole thing. Camila's conduct was extraordinary and in the end I gave up on her and just asked Alan Yentob questions. "I think it was valuable and I think the value of it was that action is being taken as a consequence of it." It was revealed on Monday that the Insolvency Service is trying to get the charity's directors, including Camila Batmanghelidjh and Alan Yentob, barred from holding company directorships for up to six years. Paul Flynn also believes there is "unfinished business" in the committee's investigations. You can sample the musical here or see it for yourself at the Donmar Warehouse, where it runs until August 12.
If the transcript of a parliamentary select committee hearing were an obvious candidate for a musical then Andrew Lloyd Webber would probably have got there first.

The top four all recorded personal bests, with Olympic champion Nafissatou Thiam winning with 7,013 points and Johnson-Thompson scoring 6,691. The Briton, 24, led overnight by three points but saw that disappear in Sunday's first event, the long jump. Carolin Schafer was second with 6,836 and Laura Ikauniece third with 6,815. Find out how to get into athletics with our inclusive guide. United States' Jackie Joyner-Kersee holds the heptathlon world record - 7,291, set at the 1988 Seoul Olympics. Such was the high quality of the event that Johnson-Thompson's points total was the highest for a fourth-placed finish in heptathlon history. She began Sunday with 6.53m in the long jump, but it was eclipsed by Thiam's 6.56m and then a 6.57m from Schafer - the German's fifth personal best in five events. In the javelin, Belgian Thiam moved 185 points clear following a throw of 59.32m, while Johnson-Thompson produced 39.98m - her best in a heptathlon since 2014. The Briton needed to run two minutes 11.72 seconds in the final event, the 800m, to record a new PB. She managed to clock 2:11.12 to break her previous best total by nine points. Johnson-Thompson split with her long-term coach Mike Holmes last November, and left her home city of Liverpool to join a new training group in Montpellier. In the decathlon, Briton Ashley Bryant recorded a personal best of 8,163 to qualify for the World Championships. He finished in 10th place.
Britain's Katarina Johnson-Thompson broke her personal best but only finished fourth in an incredible heptathlon event in Gotzis, Austria.

The 28-year-old defender had a medical with the Baggies on Friday but no agreement has been reached over his personal terms. There is a chance the deal could be resurrected as a loan move but manager Tony Pulis is looking at other options. Meanwhile, Pulis says he might have to offer Spurs target Saido Berahino, 22, some protection from the ongoing transfer speculation. The Baggies turned down a bid for Berahino from Tottenham on Tuesday. "I told him not to get wrapped up in all the hype," said Pulis. "He's a young lad and he might need some protection." Berahino is yet to score this season after managing 20 goals last term. And Pulis accepts West Brom would not be able to hold off Tottenham forever should the offers continue to rise. "I'm sure Tottenham wanted to keep Gareth Bale and Manchester United wanted to keep Cristiano Ronaldo," said Pulis. He is expected to face Chelsea at The Hawthorns on Sunday. "God has given him a great gift and he can't waste it. Lots of people have done that in the past. I just hope he's not one of them." Find all the latest football transfers on our dedicated page.

Kelly, 24, is from a family of amazing resilience. His adoptive mother is a world-renowned humanitarian, his brother - who was born with similar, severe limb deficiencies - is musically gifted and appeared on the Australian version of the X-Factor, while his adoptive sisters, Trishna and Krishna, were born as conjoined twins and separated through surgery in 2009. Ahmed and Emmanuel, who sang John Lennon's Imagine on the Australian talent show in 2011, were both born in Baghdad, the capital of Iraq. Unable to care for the children, their parents left them at an orphanage where Ahmed spent the majority of his first seven years. That was until his future adoptive mother, Moira Kelly, took the brothers to Australia in 1998. "What my mom does is quite extraordinary, bringing kids from all over the world that need life-saving operations," said Kelly. "She has done an awesome job. She brought me and my brother over for our own surgery and I pretty much haven't looked back since." Once in Australia, Kelly had surgery to remove the deformed sections of his lower legs and learned to walk, and then run, using prosthetic legs, before he started to play Australian rules football. He switched to swimming and has now competed at the London 2012 and Rio 2016 Paralympic Games. Kelly, who failed to win any medals in Brazil, was cheered on by his mother and brother, who both made the long trip from Australia to Rio. Speaking about his brothers and sisters, Kelly added: "They are remarkable siblings. "They themselves had to conquer their own challenges and I'm very proud of all three of them. "My mom has always had values of treating each other with respect and trying to be as fair as possible. They are great values and that's something I really worked hard to live by as well." Facebook became mired in controversy after some users complained fake news changed the outcome of the US election. Mr Zuckerberg posted details of several projects to "take misinformation seriously", including methods for stronger detection and verification. He previously responded to criticism of fake news on Facebook by saying over 99% of its content was "authentic". 'I write fake news that gets shared on Facebook' Can you spot the fake stories? In his post, billionaire Mr Zuckerberg said: "We've been working on this problem for a long time and we take this responsibility seriously." But he said the problems were "complex, both technically and philosophically." He noted Facebook did not want to discourage the sharing of opinions or become "arbiters of truth". What Facebook's challenges over fake news reveal, I think, is that we're in completely uncharted territory. Never has any private company had such immediate power over the way we act, feel, think, date, buy, fight - whatever. There's an urgent accountability gap between what technology companies do and what the public is allowed to know. It's simply no longer enough for Zuckerberg to deny an issue and expect people to blindly take his word for it. Zuckerberg's global ambitions will live or die on his ability to be an astute political operator. The fake news row was a big test, and he handled it poorly -  dragging out the issue in the news agenda for well over a week. Read more: Zuckerberg is a politician now Mr Zuckerberg said Facebook is currently working on seven proposals to combat misinformation more robustly including methods for stronger detection and verification, and providing warning labels on fake content. In the wake of the US presidential election results last week, many criticised Mr Zuckerberg, saying fake news on Facebook aided the rise of Donald Trump. He dismissed the idea as "crazy" but fake news sites are on the rise due to the profits which can be made from web advertising. Fake news purveyors can be enticed away from creating funny satirical content to more believable content because they think it is more likely to be shared. One such story, which was widely shared on Facebook after the election, falsely claimed Hollywood actor Denzel Washington had praised Mr Trump. On Monday, Google announced it would do more to prevent fake news sites from making money through advertising. Shortly after, Facebook made explicit a similar restriction on the use of its advertising network.

According to the senior military official, the operation to recapture the northern city will probably take place in April or May. Iraq's second largest city is currently being held by 1,000 to 2,000 IS militants, the official added. Mosul was home to more than a million people before it fell to IS last June. The unnamed official told reporters that no decision had been made on whether a small group of US military advisers would be needed on the ground to direct air support. All of the fighters in the force will have gone through US training by the time of the operation, the official added. He said the operation would be needed by May, otherwise it would be compromised by the summer heat, although he added that it could be delayed if the Iraqi forces were not ready. Mosul residents recently described their life under IS rule. Here are some excerpts: The Mosul diaries The BBC's Gary O'Donoghue in Washington says that telegraphing the timing of the attack is unusual, but the US insists that IS forces are now in retreat and Washington needs to show that its efforts to rebuild Iraqi military capacity are bearing fruit. Earlier in the week, Iraq's Prime Minister Haider al-Abadi confirmed that his forces were "planning an offensive on Mosul". In an interview with BBC World Affairs editor John Simpson, Mr Abadi said he hoped Mosul would be liberated in a few months' time, with a minimum of casualties. He said the US-led coalition against IS had stepped up its operations in the past four or five weeks. "I think the air campaign has increased in its quality and intensity," he said. Meanwhile, military chiefs from more than 20 countries gathered in Saudi Arabia to discuss how to strengthen the Iraqi army against IS. An official told AFP news agency that a "firm plan" was being looked at to empower the Iraqi army. The US administration has been criticised by Iraqi politicians for lacking a clear-cut strategy in the fight against Islamic State (IS). By announcing a large-scale military offensive to oust the group from Iraq's second-largest city of Mosul, Washington wants to send a strong message of support to thousands of Iraqi army troops. But it also wants to signal to arch-enemy Iran that it will not let it dictate the military endgame in Iraq. Spring is seen by military experts as an opportune moment to retake Mosul and perhaps other towns and cities. The Americans also want to win more time to train thousands of Iraqi army troops on guerrilla warfare, capitalising on the strong determination from heavyweight countries in the region like Egypt, Saudi Arabia and Jordan to take on the common enemy of Islamist jihadists. On Thursday, an opposition news service, the UK-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights, said bombing raids by US-led coalition aircraft in Syria had played a key role in the recapture of 19 villages from IS in Raqqa province. Fighters from the Kurdish Popular Protection Units (YPG) and three other rebel groups have advanced steadily into IS-held territory since securing control of Kobane on 26 January. The YPG and its allies are also now in control of about 35km (22 miles) of the motorway connecting the cities of Aleppo and Hassakeh, the Observatory added. Ain Issa and the motorway are 56km from the city of Raqqa, the de facto capital of the "caliphate" declared by IS in June.
A joint Iraqi-Kurdish military force of up to 25,000 fighters is being prepared to retake the Iraqi city of Mosul from Islamic State (IS), a US official says.

The Northumberland Hen Harrier Protection Partnership (NHHPP) said three of five nesting pairs in the county produced young this year. The Royal Society for the Protection of Birds (RSPB) says the iconic species is under "severe threat". The NHHPP said the news was a "positive step" in efforts to re-establish them. Illegal killings, along with destruction of their habitat, are behind the collapse of their population in England. Numbers fell from 12 pairs in 2010 to four in 2016. Numbers of pairs in Scotland fell from 505 to 460 over the period, while in Wales they declined from 57 to 35 breeding pairs. In Northern Ireland, pairs fell from 59 recorded in 2010 to 46 in 2016. The NHHPP said the Northumberland figures showed the county was bucking the trend. Chairman Andrew Miller said: "Hen harriers are still facing an uphill battle to re-establish themselves in the uplands of England. "However with the positive support of all our partners including key landowners, 10 young birds have successfully fledged. "Working together and using the latest scientific techniques is also increasing our knowledge of this amazing species. "We will continue to monitor our birds throughout the year and hope that this year's youngsters will stay safe and be as successful as Finn" Mike Pratt, chief executive of Northumberland Wildlife Trust, said "The news that several pairs of hen harriers nested and bred successfully, raising 10 young, in the uplands of Northumberland is very encouraging and speaks loudly of the partnership between conservationists locally in protecting the birds." Historically, hen harriers were once much more widespread before being driven to extinction in mainland Britain during the 19th Century. Despite a subsequent comeback, the species has remained rare in the UK, with a breeding population under 1,000 pairs. Tory AM Paul Davies said the law is needed as children and adults had not received the help that they should. The law would require a strategy to be introduced ensuring councils and health boards take the action needed to support people with the condition. Ministers have said £13m is being spent on a National Integrated Autism Service over the next four years. The Welsh Government maintains that there are already "legislative and policy levers to support people with autism in Wales" but says the situation will be kept under review. But Mr Davies told BBC Wales that services "have been patchy in the past". "We need legislation to ensure these services are put on a statutory footing," said the Preseli Pembrokeshire AM. "What this bill will also do is ensure there are clear pathways to diagnosis [and] that staff dealing with people with autism get the right training as well." Mr Davies won a ballot in March to present a bill in the assembly. If a majority of AMs support his plans, he will have 13 months to draft a formal bill which could then become law. The Conservative AM said he was "hopeful" his proposals would progress to the next stage. In October, a Conservative motion calling on Welsh ministers to introduce an Autism Bill was defeated in the assembly.

S4C gets most of its income from the licence fee and UK ministers have announced a major review of the BBC. Monmouth MP David Davies told BBC Wales S4C was a "special case as it promotes the Welsh language". Ministers have said S4C should aim for similar cost savings as the BBC. On Thursday, Labour warned that cuts to the BBC's budget threatened S4C, but Culture Secretary John Whittingdale told MPs there was a commitment to the channel "within the next couple of years", and he hoped to have discussions with its management in the near future. Mr Davies told BBC Radio Cymru's Rhaglen Dylan Jones, on Friday: "The government realise the importance of S4C and that it's more than a station, it's important to the future of the Welsh language." Mr Davies also hinted that the Welsh Affairs Committee, which he chairs, could consider conducting an inquiry into broadcasting, including S4C. "These are personal views but I believe S4C to be a special case as it promotes the Welsh language and I believe it to be more important that S4C caries on more than any other BBC channel," he added. S4C has said it has experienced "substantial cuts" since 2010 and would emphasise the "uniqueness" of its service, and its "value and importance, both culturally and economically", in talks with ministers. A green paper on the future of the BBC released on Thursday noted that "audience reach has been falling across some indigenous language services over the last few years, particularly in Wales". It added the higher hourly cost of Welsh-language radio programming compared to English-language output "raises concerns about value for money".
It is "more important" for the Welsh language television station S4C to remain on air than "any other BBC channel", a Conservative MP has said.

Both Brent and US light crude oil fell about $1.30, or 3.5%, a barrel. On the upside, entertainment giant Disney was up 1.3% thanks to the success of the latest Star Wars film. On Sunday, The Force Awakens became the fastest film in history to take $1bn (£674m) at the global box office. Sportswear giant Nike also gained ground, rising 1%. On the downside, energy stocks fell due to the slide in the oil price, with Chevron down 1.8% and Exxon Mobil 0.7% lower. Outside the main index, Conoco Phillips fell 2.9%, while Marathon Petroleum dipped 2%. "The 3% dive in crude oil this morning shows you that the sellers are still in control of the energy market and that's leading jitters on Wall Street, coupled with just normal digestive action after last week's strong gains," said Adam Sarhan at Sarhan Capital in New York. Brent crude currently stands at $36.57 a barrel, while US light crude is trading at $36.70. In the run-up to Christmas, Brent sank to $36.04, its lowest level since July 2004. In the summer of 2014, Brent stood at almost $115, but the price has fallen dramatically due to oversupply and reduced demand.

Areas affected include adult social care and children's services, including children's centres. The county council said an increase in demand meant it needed to save the extra cash by 2018. It comes on top of £64m cuts announced last year, when leader Conservative Ian Hudspeth said children's centres were no longer under threat. Fears that some centres could close sparked protests last year. A petition signed by David Cameron was presented by about 100 campaigners to the authority in a bid to save the county's 44 centres. It was later agreed there would be a review to agree how the council could save £3m in 2017. This latest round of proposed cuts sees the children's services lose an additional £1m next year, and £2m the following year. However, the authority said there would be "no immediate reductions in services for many months". Mr Hudspeth, said: "The council is facing unprecedented budget pressures from the rising costs of care and this pressure is expected to continue for many years to come. "Since 2010, we have had five years of reducing council costs and finding savings of more that £200m." Labour county councillor Liz Brighouse said none of the county's centres should close, but said because of the "massive cuts in budgets" she did not know how the council could keep them all open. "We have to make sure centres which are keeping children safe are properly funded and kept open," she added. A further £2m is set to come from the subsidised transport budget, which includes home to school transport, concessionary bus passes and dial-a-ride. Another £6.1m would be found from learning disability services. The council had already announced it would need to find that money and is running a consultation called the Big Plan looking at changing ways in which learning disabilities services work. There will also be another £3m of unidentified cuts that would come from adult social care. The annual cost of a resident parking permit would also rise from £50 to £60. The new cuts would be implemented from next April up until the end of March 2018. The council's cabinet will consider the proposals on 16 December. Full council is expected to make a final decision in February. The leader of Oxfordshire County Council sees its financial woes as a clear case for more devolution. Conservative Ian Hudspeth says its "the only way" the council can keep providing services, as it spends an increasing proportion of its budget on social care. Certainly, many councils have been frustrated by constraints imposed by central government. Cherwell District Council has already said it is planning to do without its Revenue Support Grant from 2017, and many have railed against the 2% cap on council tax rises. But the Communities Secretary Eric Pickles has repeatedly opposed large hikes in council tax as being unfair on families in a difficult financial climate. If the council did have the power to set its own tax, would residents be happy to pay a different rate to neighbouring counties?
Oxfordshire County Council has announced proposals to cut services by an extra £20m.

The drugs, said to have a street value of £500,000. were believed to have been destined for Jersey, which lies 14 miles (22km) from France. A 57-year-old Irish national was arrested in Granville at the weekend and has appeared in court in France. Following the arrest, Jersey authorities carried out "a number of searches" in the island. Officers say the investigation is continuing. Mark Cockerham, director of enforcement at Jersey Customs and Immigration, described the seizure as "significant". "Had it been imported and distributed in Jersey this would have led to a large supply being available at user level," he said. "Whilst we have seen a marked increase in the seizures of new psychoactive substances this year, this demonstrates that there is still a demand for class A drugs in Jersey." During 2013, Jersey customs seized drugs worth £2.4m.
French and Jersey customs officers have seized 4kg (8lb 13oz) of cocaine on the Normandy coast.

The climber, who is her 30s, fell at Offa's Dyke near Llangollen, Denbighshire, on Sunday. An RAF rescue helicopter from Valley on Anglesey airlifted her to a major trauma centre at a hospital in Stoke-on-Trent. North East Wales Search and Rescue team assisted the rescue. The bone is believed to be from the elbow of St Thomas, who was murdered in Canterbury Cathedral in 1170 after he fell out with King Henry II. The fragment is the centrepiece of a week-long pilgrimage in London and Kent. The pilgrimage starts with a Holy Mass at Westminster Cathedral in London. Archbishop of Westminster Cardinal Vincent Nichols will celebrate the Holy Mass with Hungarian President Janos Ader and the country's Primate Cardinal Peter Erdo. The elbow fragment will be reunited with a fragment said to be from Thomas Becket's skull, normally kept at Stonyhurst College in Lancashire. Cardinal Nichols said the pilgrimage was a return journey for the Hungarian relic - 800 years late. "It helps to solidify that growing sharing of life that takes place between Christian churches and it reminds all Christians that there comes a point where their loyalty to Christ becomes the overriding loyalty of their lives and they might have to pay a final price," he said. King Henry II made his close friend Thomas Becket Archbishop of Canterbury in 1161. The friendship came under strain when Becket stood up for the church in disagreements with the king. In 1164, Becket fled to France, returning in 1170. On the 29 December 1170, four knights, believing the king wanted Becket out of the way, murdered him in Canterbury Cathedral. Becket was made a saint in 1173 and his shrine in Canterbury Cathedral became a focus for pilgrimage. The Hungarian relic will also be on display Westminster Abbey and St Magnus the Martyr Church in Lower Thames Street while in London. It travels to Rochester Cathedral on Friday and Canterbury Cathedral on Saturday before being returned to Hungary. It is not known how the relic arrived in Hungary but two prelates from Hungary were said to have been present in Canterbury Cathedral when Thomas Becket's body was reburied in 1220 and his tomb opened. The shrine at Canterbury containing most of Becket's remains was destroyed during the reign of Henry VIII when the practice of venerating saints was condemned. Police said the incidents took place in the Drumchapel area of Glasgow in February and March. Kevin Ayre, 29, from Clydebank, West Dunbartonshire, has been charged with culpable and reckless conduct and attempting to pervert the course of justice. He appeared at Glasgow Sheriff Court on Monday and made no plea or declaration. He was released on bail and is expected to appear at court again at a later date.

The Information Commissioner's Office (ICO) has said it will investigate the sale. The ICO said the sale of this information could be "a significant breach of data protection principles". The profile seller Edgars Apalais has denied that people did not give consent for their contact details to be shared. The programme was sent photographs and lists of names, email addresses, dates of birth and details of sexual orientation by the website Usdate. Some profiles included photographs of celebrities such as Brad Pitt, Michael Caine and the TV chef Rick Stein. Some of the contact details sold were genuine. The email addresses of academics, a House of Lords life peer and BBC employees were included on the list. All of these individuals told the programme that they had never used a dating website. Gerald Masterson tried online dating a couple of years ago but said he did not meet anyone and stopped using the websites. He was surprised to learn that his personal details had been sold to Panorama as part of the bulk purchase of fake profiles. "I am angry and feel they have taken my identity…. I feel it's just a money-making scam," he said. It is a breach of data protection law if someone sells your information without consent and if the information is inaccurate.

The American, 24, is the world record holder for both the 100m and 200m and among the biggest names in the sport. The single-leg amputee has told US Paralympics he is not "mentally and physically prepared to compete at the level I am capable of". He finished second behind Britain's Jonnie Peacock in the T44 100m at the 2012 Paralympics in London. Browne had been suffering with a hamstring injury and did not compete in last weekend's US trials - however he was still eligible to be considered for discretionary selection. He suffered broken ribs and concussion in a car crash in January, but returned to training shortly afterwards. Browne's rivalry with Peacock was expected to be one of the highlights of the Rio Paralympics. However, he said in an email sent to US Paralympics that his 2016 season was over and he would now focus on 2017.

In a letter to the chancellor, they say staffing accounts for 60% of the cost of care. The companies said they supported the National Living Wage, but efforts would be needed to rescue the care system. The government said social care would be considered as part of the spending review later this year. Under plans announced in the Budget, workers aged over 25 in the UK will be paid a minimum of £7.20 an hour from April next year, rising to £9 by 2020. Four Seasons Health Care, Bupa, HC-One, Care UK and Barchester said the measure would cost the care sector £1bn by 2020. They warned any shortage of care places could put huge pressure on the NHS. Martin Green, the chief executive of Care England which represents the industry, said: "Without adequate funding to pay for the National Living Wage, the care sector is at serious risk of catastrophic collapse." He said there was a "grave and very real possibility" that a provider could fail within the next two years. Mr Green added: "We want to work with the government to find a fair solution that will ensure the care sector can provide a safe and comfortable environment for older people who live in care homes." The UK Homecare Association made a similar warning last month, saying services to care for people in their own homes would become "unviable". A government spokesman said: "The National Living Wage will benefit hundreds of thousands of care workers who will see their pay increase. "The overall costs of providing social care will be considered as part of the spending review later this year and we are working with the care sector to understand how the changes will affect them."
The National Living Wage could result in a "catastrophic collapse" in the number of care homes, according to the five biggest providers.

The Office for National Statistics data shows 19 deaths by suicide for every 100,000 men in 2013. Overall, 6,233 suicides were registered in men and women over the age of 15 in 2013 - 4% higher than the previous year. The legacy of the recession is one explanation for the rise. Overall suicide rates had been falling consistently from 15.6 deaths per 100,000 in 1981 to 10.6 per 100,000 in 2007. "Since 2007, the female rate stayed relatively constant while the male rate increased significantly," the ONS report states. In 2013, 78% of suicides were in men. The most vulnerable age group were those aged between 45 and 59, however, the rates have been increasing in all age groups except in the under thirties. The report added that research suggested that "the recent recession in the UK could be an influencing factor in the increase in suicides" and that "areas with greater rises in unemployment had also experienced higher rises in male suicides". Marjorie Wallace, the chief executive of the mental health charity SANE, commented: "It is really shocking that men who are or could be in their prime of life should feel driven to such a state of hopelessness and despair for the future that they are taking their own lives. "SANE's own research shows that many suicides could be prevented, if people were able to talk more openly about their feelings and felt able to seek therapy or other help. "Our concern is the number of suicides which are preventable and the fact that when people with mental illness hit crisis point, there are no available beds or units and they are sent home from A&E and left to suffer in silence." Joe Ferns, from the Samaritans, said: "The news is sadly not surprising to us given the context of a challenging economic environment and the social impact that brings. "We need to see a greater focus at local and regional levels on the co-ordination and prioritisation of suicide prevention activity especially in areas with high socio-economic deprivation." Ben Lake, the country's youngest MP at 24, defeated the Lib Dem's leader in Wales, Mark Williams, after two recounts, taking 11,623 votes compared with 11,519. Meanwhile, Conservative Glyn Davies has retained the Montgomeryshire seat, taking 51.8% of the vote share. Chris Davies held Brecon and Radnorshire, taking 20,081 votes against the Lib Dem's 12,043. Plaid Cymru leader Leanne Wood said Mr Lake fought "an energetic and positive campaign" and would make "an excellent MP". She said his addition to the three seats the party held in 2015 would give Wales "a formidable voice to defend Wales" in Westminster. Mr Lake said the win had been "unexpected". "We have been able to run a very positive campaign and also engage with a lot of young people," he added. The chair of the Welsh Lib Dem national executive committee Carole O'Toole called the Ceredigion result "a sad day for liberalism in Wales". She added: "Mark Williams has worked tirelessly for the communities of Ceredigion and for Wales since 2005, leading campaigns to change the legal definition of child neglect, to secure a better deal for milk farmers, and standing up for rural Wales. "This is a difficult result for us following the results in last year's assembly elections and we will need to take stock and consider how we move forward from here."

On Monday, Mrs May met the first and deputy first ministers on a one-day visit to Northern Ireland. She stressed that no-one wanted a return to the "borders of the past". Her meeting with Mr Kenny is understood to have focused on the impact of Brexit on British and Irish relations. Earlier in July, shortly after her appointment as the new prime minister, Mrs May spoke to Mr Kenny by telephone and agreed to build on the "strong relationship" between the UK and the Republic of Ireland.. Northern Ireland Secretary of State James Brokenshire described Mrs May's meeting with Arlene Foster and Martin McGuinness on Monday as "positive". He also said there was agreement about protecting the current border arrangements between Northern Ireland and the Republic of Ireland. "I think that the prime minister had a really helpful exchange with the first minister and the deputy first minister and I think there is a strong will and strong commitment to not see the return to the borders of the past," he said. "Indeed that's a theme that underlined discussions that I previously had with the taoiseach on Friday." Mr Brokenshire added that there were "treaties and various other mechanisms" in place that underlined that there was a "different arrangement" between the United Kingdom and the Republic of Ireland. Deputy First Minister Martin McGuinness said he hoped there would be an "arrangement which will see the people of the north of Ireland continuing to see their future in Europe as part of an imaginative solution." The DUP MP Gavin Robinson said there were "two aspects" that had to be considered relating to the border. "So far, discussions have focussed on the movement of people, there will also need to be a discussion about the movement of goods, customs and whether or not there is a form of a single market or not, whether there is a disparity in tariffs or not and if that is the case, then how you control that," he said. "So whilst I see no difficulty in getting an arrangement that builds on the Common Travel Area and that allows you and I to move freely into the Republic of Ireland and similarly people from the Republic of Ireland can move freely into the United Kingdom, knowing that we have a uniform immigration policy, it may well be that further discussions will need to take place." Bartosz Ojeda-Rodriguez, 35, Stanislaw Czyz, 29, and Andrzej Pawel Czyz, 31, were found guilty of murdering Tomasz Bachta. The 29-year-old died outside his home in All Saints Road, Burton upon Trent, Staffordshire, on 15 July 2015. Piotr Miezal, 33, was convicted of manslaughter after acting as a lookout for the other defendants. More on this story and others from Stoke and Staffordshire A trial at Stafford Crown Court heard Mr Bachta was attacked after working a night shift, two days after a previous altercation in a doctor's surgery car park with some of the defendants. He had been attacked with baseball bats, a sickle and other weapons, and police officers found him lying unconscious in the road. A sickle found nearby had the DNA of Ojeda-Rodriguez on the handle, the court heard. A post-mortem examination confirmed he died from a stab wound to the neck that severed a major artery. Ojeda-Rodriguez, from Hunter Street in Burton; Stanislaw Czyz, of Byrkley Street, Burton; and Andrzej Czyz, of Byrkley Street, Burton, were all jailed for life, and will serve a minimum of 20 years each. Miezal, of Pershore Drive in Burton, will serve nine years in prison. Sentencing, Judge Michael Chambers QC described the defendants' behaviour as "particularly reprehensible". "None of you have shown any remorse for what you did," he said. "This was, in my judgement, a cold and ruthless joint attack." In a statement Mr Bachta's family said there was "no explanation for such a horrific action" that left them with "overwhelming grief". They said: "We will not accept Tomek's death for the rest of our lives and will never forget those responsible for it."

The track shares the honour with Clean Bandit's Rather Be, according to the Official Charts Company. Mike Read's UKIP Calypso finished just outside the top 40, at number 44. Earlier this week, the former BBC Radio DJ "apologised unreservedly" and asked for the song to be withdrawn following complaints that it was racist. UKIP Calypso, performed with a mock Caribbean accent, sings the praises of party leader Nigel Farage. "I am so sorry that the song unintentionally caused offence," Read said.

Singer-songwriter Ben Howard scored his first number one on the Official Albums Chart with his second studio album, I Forget Where We Were. Stacey Giggs, 39, was granted a decree nisi during brief proceedings in central London earlier. The couple married in September 2007 and have two children. Neither party was present at the hearing. Once a decree nisi has been granted, a divorce petitioner must wait six weeks and a day to apply for a decree absolute to formally end the marriage. James Brown, a partner with Hall Brown Family Law who is acting for Mrs Giggs, said she was determined to finalise all outstanding aspects of her divorce with as little attention as possible for the sake of her family. Mr Brown said: "Mrs Giggs' primary focus has always been and will continue to be the welfare of her family. "Her only interest is in bringing these events to as swift and amicable a conclusion as possible, so that she and her family can move on." The couple's names appeared as Giggs SA v RJ in a short list of other couples for the "making of a decree or order" under matrimonial and civil partnership proceedings by District Judge Yvonne Gibson at the Central Family Court in High Holborn. An earlier hearing heard how Giggs claimed he had made a "special contribution" to the creation of wealth during his marriage. Jo Edwards, an expert in family court litigation, said wealthy people are required to prove they have made a special contribution to avoid the marital pot being split evenly in half. A ban on naming the pair's children and reporting financial details was put in place at an earlier hearing.

The sale of the seven-time European Cup winners values the Italian club at €740m (£627m), with a further €220m (£186m) in debt. The group buying the club, the Sino-Europe Sports Investment Management Changxing, have agreed to invest €350m (£297m) in the next three seasons. AC Milan finished seventh in Serie A last season. They will join their city rivals Inter in being owned by Chinese investors. The announcement comes on the same day that Premier League side West Brom joined their Midlands neighbours Wolves and Aston Villa in being bought by Chinese consortiums. Dispersed wreckage was found in the Andaman Sea, the military said in a statement on its Facebook page. The aircraft, a Y-8 transporter made in China, was carrying 14 crew. Most of the passengers were military personnel and family members, including children. The plane was flying from Myeik to Yangon and the debris was found in the sea off the coastal town of Dawei. Communication with the flight was lost on Wednesday half an hour into the short routine trip. According to the military, by mid-afternoon on Thursday search teams had recovered 29 bodies - 20 women, eight children and one man. A wheel, several life jackets and some luggage were found earlier. Should everyone on board have died in the crash, the death toll would make it among the country's worst aviation disasters, says the BBC's Myanmar correspondent Jonah Fisher. The reason for the crash remains unclear. There has so far been no report of a mayday call and the dispersed nature of the wreckage suggests it could have broken up in mid air. Although it is monsoon season in Myanmar, there were no reports of bad weather at that time. The plane was purchased from China in March last year and had logged 809 flying hours, according to the military. Myanmar has seen a number of aircraft incidents in recent years. In February 2016, the five-member crew of an air force plane died when the aircraft crashed in the capital of Nay Pyi Taw. A few months later, three officers were killed when a military helicopter crashed in central Myanmar.

"I pride myself on being respectful and being disciplined and if I appeared to lose that then you deserve to be punished accordingly. "I'm not proud of that, if that is the case, but I think my frustration was very evident. "The two decisions, when we looked at it post-match, it was quite clear we were right in our assumptions." Aurimas Butkys, 25, ran off earlier, shortly after he entered Boston Police Station in Lincolnshire.

The trust said the target was only narrowly missed last month. Monitor regional director Paul Streat said: "For the benefit of local people in Gloucestershire, the situation needs to improve soon. "Over the past year we have worked with the trust and local healthcare organisations to identify what could be done to improve healthcare across the area, but we now need to look more closely at what the trust could do for its patients in A&E." The watchdog said the trust had missed the 95% of patients being seen within four hours target "for the majority" of the financial year 2014-2015. It said no decision had yet been made on whether action would be needed, and it is to announce the outcome of its investigation once it has been completed.

Actors Stephanie Cole, Samantha Bond and Greta Scacchi all trained at the Bristol Old Vic Theatre School and are now backing its funding appeal. The venue marks its 250th anniversary this year and wants to raise funds for the next phase of its redevelopment. Ms Bond, who played Lady Rosamund in Downton Abbey, said: "We need to raise a bit more money and that's it sorted." The Old Vic opened in 1766 and claims to be the UK's oldest working theatre. It was closed for an 18-month refurbishment between 2010 and 2012 and is currently raising £12.5m to transform its front of house spaces. Ms Bond, a former theatre student, said it was "the most beautiful theatre to play". "It's a bit like playing to a very warm armchair - the auditorium envelops the audience and makes it an absolute joy for the actor," she said. Stephanie Cole, who starred in Tenko and Coronation Street, also began her career at the Old Vic. "The first time I stood on the stage and was paid for it was here - when I was 17," she said. "And when I finished at the Vic School I joined the company for a year - it is the most wonderful theatre. What can I say it's a jewel - it's magic." Greta Scacchi, best known for her lead role in the film White Mischief, also described the theatre as a "place of magic". "It's fortunate Bristol not only has this theatre - this historic jewel of an auditorium - but that it's in a city of this size where it's a focal point and people can feel very proud of it," she said.
A £12.5m appeal to finish refurbishing a theatre in Bristol is being supported by three famous former students.

Now those with their names on the ballot paper are starting to get that nervy feeling deep down inside. And there's little more they can do - their fate is in the hands of those going to the ballot box on Thursday. So, what are the odds of an election upset or two in Northern Ireland? There are five key battles to keep an eye on, with a real chance of some seats changing hands, according to the bookies. The four-way fight for South Belfast between Alasdair McDonnell of the SDLP, the DUP's Emma Little Pengelly, Sinn Féin's Máirtín Ó Muilleoir and Paula Bradshaw of the Alliance Party is perhaps the most captivating. Bookmaker Christopher Bickerstaff said Mr McDonnell was "there to be challenged" at the outset of the campaign, especially after the DUP topped the vote in the constituency at the assembly election. But as polling day has approached, the former SDLP leader has "strengthened as the favourite". In North Belfast, Nigel Dodds has a fight on his hands to hold on to his seat. Sinn Féin put forward John Finucane, a high-profile lawyer and son of murdered solicitor Pat Finucane, to take on the DUP's deputy leader, and that has increased the interest in the contest. "If you look back to the last general election, the DUP were about a 1/10 favourite - a better than 90% chance of winning the seat," said Mr Bickerstaff. "This time around they're probably about a 70% favourite, and that drop is based on the strength of the Sinn Féin candidate. "The DUP probably just have enough to hold on to that seat but it'll be tighter than people expected at the start of the campaign." Across the city in East Belfast, Alliance Party leader Naomi Long is hoping to regain the seat she lost to the DUP after a bitter campaign in 2015. But Mr Bickerstaff believes that while the heat is on her rival Gavin Robinson, the DUP man will just cling on. "Generally, the [betting] industry went with Alliance Party as slight favourites but we've looked at it the other way - we expect the DUP to hold the seat. "Although the Ulster Unionists are standing in East Belfast, history suggests that many of their supporters are likely to vote for the DUP in a general election." Outside the city, all eyes are on South Down, with the SDLP and Sinn Féin slugging it out for the seat. Margaret Ritchie is looking for re-election to a seat her party has held for three decades, but Sinn Féin is hoping to seize it after a strong showing at the assembly election. "All the money has been for Chris Hazzard," said Mr Bickerstaff. "This would be looked at as one of the biggest upsets but in betting terms we don't consider it an upset at all. "One thing to factor in is that in rural areas unionists seem to be pushing that message of: 'If you're a unionist vote for the union.' "They're not lending votes any more, so Margaret Ritchie probably won't get enough of the unionist vote lent to her to get her in this time." And another potential Sinn Féin gain is in Fermanagh and South Tyrone, where Michelle Gildernew has a "70% chance of winning the seat back", according to Mr Bickerstaff. Ulster Unionist Tom Elliott won it from Mrs Gildernew at the last poll but could he be set to relinquish it after just two years at Westminster? "This seat is all about turnout - I imagine Sinn Féin will keep their turnout high after the assembly election," the bookie adds. A full list of candidates standing in each constituency in the general election is available here. So desperately uneventful has the election campaign in Northern Ireland been that if you didn't laugh then you'd probably cry. Thankfully, there was a chance cast a comedic eye over it all in the Black Box in Belfast on Tuesday night. That's because comedian Alan Irwin hosted a Have I Got News For You-style political panel show with fellow stand-ups Micky Bartlett, Luke McGibbon, Terry McHugh and Louise Sexton. Somehow they managed to find enough material to make an evening's entertainment out of dissecting the election. "When you get a quiet election cycle like we've had now, it's nonsense stories that dominate the news for days at a time," said Alan. "Even the fact that the nonsense stuff is headline news means you're never going to run out of things to talk about." And Alan said there's still a thirst for political comedy even though many people are all electioned out. "The fact that we keep going back to the polls is inherently ridiculous. "People are sort of jaded but that's how the get on with it - make fun of it." A total of 1,242,698 people will be eligible to vote in Thursday's general election. That means there are just over 12,000 fewer potential voters than in March's assembly election but almost 6,000 more than the 2015 general election. Of the 1,254,709 people who could have gone to the ballot box three months ago, 64.78% decided to cast a vote. And at the 2015 general election, turnout hit 58.45%. Polling stations will be open from 07:00 BST until 10:00 and you must bring photographic ID in order to vote, although your poll card isn't necessary. And remember, the Westminster election system differs from the assembly vote, so mark your ballot paper with a single X beside the name of your candidate of choice. Vote early, vote dry is the advice from the BBC's weather team. Polling day won't have much of a summery feel, with a warning of heavy showers issued for Thursday afternoon and a chance of hail and thunder, too. There's a risk of flooding and low level travel disruption in some places, and the showers are due to last into the evening before dying out. Elsewhere on the campaign trail on Wednesday...

The 23-year-old England international was persuaded to move after Reds boss Brendan Rodgers made it clear the player was not part of his plans. "It's great to be here at West Ham and all signed up," said Carroll. "I want to be playing games and obviously hoping to score some goals. "I know the manager well and some of the lads, so it is nice for me to come to a place where I know people." Carroll played under West Ham boss Sam Allardyce at Newcastle United. The forward also played alongside Hammers skipper Kevin Nolan when they were at the Magpies. "I know Sam from Newcastle and he was a massive reason for me coming," added Carroll. "It was a no-brainer really." Allardyce said: "For all parties, this is a great signing. Andy is an all-round footballer but, because he is 6ft 3in and one of his strengths is his aerial power, everybody dismisses the ability he possesses on the floor. "Hopefully he can score goals for us and we will be in a very good position at the end of the year in the Premier League." It is understood there is no commitment from West Ham to buy Carroll, although the Hammers have the option to complete a permanent deal for an undisclosed fee next summer. Liverpool manager Rodgers said: "It is very simple. The club have made a monumental investment in big Andy. At the moment he is not playing. He made it very clear he wanted to play games and this is his last chance to do that." Having conceded defeat in their chase for Carroll earlier this month, West Ham were given signs of encouragement on Thursday. The deal could allow Liverpool to free up funds to move for Fulham striker Clint Dempsey, while Arsenal's Theo Walcott also remains a target. In the meantime, Liverpool have completed the signing of 18-year-old striker Samed Yesil from Bayer Leverkusen. The fee for the German Under-18 international is understood to be in the region of £1m.
Liverpool striker Andy Carroll has joined West Ham on a season-long loan.

It was due to be set up in February. Responding to a question from the UUP leader, Mike Nesbitt, Ms O'Neill told MLAs that the terms of reference for the group had been drafted but "have not been formally signed off". She said this meant consequently that the group has not yet met. The group was proposed in February when First Minister Arlene Foster asked then health minister Simon Hamilton to set up a working group to look at how the issue of fatal foetal abnormality could be addressed. It was initially due to report back by the end of June. The minister told the Assembly she was giving the matter "careful consideration", adding: "I am meeting the justice minister in the next number of weeks and I intend to discuss how we take the issue forward." The minister also said she was meeting Sarah Ewart, who brought the issue of fatal foetal abnormality to the public's attention after her own personal experience of abortion.. On Monday, an appeal began against a High Court ruling that abortion law in Northern Ireland is "incompatible" with human rights law. The appeal has been taken by the Department of Justice and Northern Ireland Attorney General John Larkin. In December, a judge ruled the law did not comply with the European Convention on Human Rights in cases of fatal foetal abnormality or sexual crime. That case was brought by the Northern Ireland Human Rights Commission. However, the justice department believes the ruling by the High Court could lead to a widening of the abortion law. The current abortion legislation differs from the rest of the UK as the Abortion Act 1967 was never extended to Northern Ireland. Currently, a termination is only permitted in Northern Ireland if a woman's life is at risk, or if there is a risk of permanent and serious damage to her mental or physical health. She told the Radio Times magazine they have their differences but she "admired him a lot". "I would always stand by him. Paul and I had our differences about what was important to us, but he is a brilliant bread-maker and I admired him a lot." She said "no one was more surprised" than her when Bake Off left the BBC. It was announced in September last year that the show had been bought by Channel 4 after six years on the BBC. It emerged that the corporation fell £10m short in its offer to Love Productions, which makes the show. The 81-year-old said she was always going to stay loyal to the BBC and wasn't tempted by a potentially bigger salary at Channel 4. "No, I wasn't. And anyway, I was never asked to go," she said. "I avoided being asked. It was suggested what would happen if I did go to Channel 4, what I would get, the advantages. "But I didn't ever have a meeting with them. I'd made up my mind. To me, it's an honour to be on the BBC. I was brought up on it." The show's hosts Mel Giedroyc and Sue Perkins also didn't enter into negotiations with Channel 4 and Mary said she was very fond of the "extraordinary" comedy duo. "It was the BBC's programme, it grew there. So I decided to stay with the BBC, with Mel and Sue." She is moving on with two new BBC programmes in the works. But before then she has admitted one issue she had Bake Off - contestants crying over baking mishaps in the early episodes of the series. "In life you shouldn't keep bursting into tears. There are occasions when you want to cry your heart out, but not on a television programme. "If you do something that doesn't work out, you have to gather yourself up and keep going."

First Minister Carwyn Jones gave a reading at Llandaff Cathedral at 15:30 BST on Sunday. On Saturday, services were held across Wales to mark the day Japan ceased fighting in World War Two. They did not surrender until 15 August 1945, days after the atomic bombs were dropped Hiroshima and Nagasaki. The war ended in Europe three months before. Over the weekend, services have been held across Wales, including at St John's Church in Cardiff and at the war memorial in Llandudno, Conwy. About 300 people joined the parade from Llandudno Pier Head to the war memorial. The national service on Sunday was open to the public and organised by the Welsh government and Cardiff council. Afterwards, the first minister said: "These men are not forgotten", adding: "today is our opportunity to remember them".
A national service has been held in Cardiff as part of final Victory in Japan Day commemorations.

Several of them died around the Syrian border town of Kobane, Attorney General George Brandis. Mr Brandis said Islamic State (IS) militants were using Australian recruits as "cannon fodder". About 70 Australians are still believed to be fighting in the Middle East, while another 20 have returned home. Australia has introduced legislation to combat the threat from those fighters who come back home. Propaganda had fooled Australian recruits who believed they were playing an important role in a religious crusade, Mr Brandis said. "They are simply using them as frontline cannon fodder, suicide bombers and propaganda tools." Among those reportedly killed in Syria is Sydney man Mohammad Ali Baryalei, an alleged IS recruiter who was accused of masterminding a terror plot to behead random members of the Australian public. Under a Foreign Fighters Bill that adopted by the Australian parliament in October, it is an offence for Australians to visit areas declared as "terror hot-spots". Last week, Foreign Minister Julie Bishop used this provision to declare it an offence for Australians to visit the de-facto IS capital of Raqqa in Syria without a valid reason. Australians face up to 10 years in prison for illegally visiting the region.
At least 20 Australians have been killed fighting alongside militants in Iraq and Syria, the Australian government has said.

A court in north-western Bizerte town sentenced the man to one month in jail for "public indecency". The ruling was an "absurd violation" of personal freedoms, Amnesty International said. Dozens protested on Sunday in the capital, Tunis, for the right to eat and drink in public during Ramadan. About a fortnight ago, four men were sentenced to one month in prison after eating in public. There are no laws in mainly Muslim Tunisia requiring individuals to fast or barring them from eating or smoking publicly during the Islamic holy month of Ramadan, Amnesty said. "The Tunisian authorities should not allow vaguely worded charges to be used to impose harsh sentences on spurious grounds," it added in a statement. "Everyone should have the right to follow their own beliefs in matters of religion and morality." Tunisia is reputed to be one of the most liberal Muslim states in the world, and is popular with European holidaymakers because of its beaches. However, a large section of the population is conservative, and supports Islamic law.
A leading rights group has condemned the imprisonment of a man in Tunisia for smoking a cigarette in public during the dawn-to-dusk Muslim fast.

South Africa-born Vickerman played 63 Tests for Australia after his 2002 debut and featured in three World Cups. "The rugby world is in shock after news of the tragic passing of Dan Vickerman. He was an enforcer on the field and a much-loved character off the field," said ARU chief executive Bill Pulver. No details of the cause of death have been disclosed. The former Wallaby died at his family home in Sydney and is survived by wife Sarah and two sons. He retired from the game in 2012 after spells with the Brumbies and Waratahs franchises in Super Rugby, and also spent the 2009-10 season in England with Premiership side Northampton Saints whilst studying at Cambridge University. He played for Cambridge in their 2008 Varsity match defeat by Oxford, before captaining the Light Blues to victory in the 2009 edition at Twickenham. England head coach Eddie Jones, who coached Australia and the Brumbies in his homeland, was among those to pay tribute. "On behalf of the RFU and myself, I would like to send my condolences to Dan Vickerman's family, Sarah and the two kids," he said. "He was a wonderfully committed team player and a good guy.

Christopher Robinson, of Aspen Park in Dunmurry, was also held to have broken the terms of his release by failing to disclose details of a mobile phone. Based on the two identified breaches of bail, a judge at Belfast Magistrates' Court remanded him back into custody. Mr Robinson, 46, is accused over the killing of Adrian Ismay in March. He also faces a further charge of possessing explosives with intent to endanger life. Mr Ismay suffered serious leg injuries when a booby-trap bomb exploded under the van he was driving in the east of the city. The 52-year-oldb died following a return to hospital 11 days later. Mr Robinson is allegedly linked to the bombing by CCTV footage of a car believed to have been used when the device was planted at the victim's Hillsborough Drive home in the early hours of 4 March. Forensic examination of the car revealed traces of RDX, a component in high explosive material, on its rear floor and seats. Mr Robinson was said to have known Mr Ismay through working with him as a volunteer with St John Ambulance. Earlier this month, a prohibition was imposed on him putting messages on social media. In court on Thursday, a detective sergeant involved in the murder investigation claimed Mr Robinson began posting again on 16 October. He alleged that the defendant provided a photo of a PSNI officer to another social media user and then commented on it when it was put online. "Last night police had to apply to Facebook to have the image of the police officer and text removed from a Facebook page," he said. The judge was told a mobile phone discovered on Robinson when he was arrested on Wednesday is to be examined. Strenuously opposing the accused being released from custody again, the detective claimed there had been up to five previous breaches of bail, including failure to comply with a curfew. A defence lawyer argued that his client only purchased the phone this week and had planned to provide police with the number. With Mr Robinson denying that he posted the Facebook comments, his solicitor claimed someone else must have used his account. But another detective responded: "They would have to have known the user name and password - it's highly unlikely." The latest blast took place at an apartment block at 08:00 local time (00:00 GMT) in Liucheng county, said state media. Seventeen separate parcel explosions hit Liucheng on Wednesday. A man suspected of having built the bombs - 33-year-old Wei Yinyong - died in one of the blasts, media said. Earlier reports said a suspect had been arrested. The cause for Thursday's blast was not clear, and no casualties have been reported. It is also not known if the blast is connected to the multiple explosions on Wednesday. Thursday's explosion took place at a six-storey building in a residential area. Xinhua news agency said the force of the blast had caused debris to rain down on a road opposite the building. Local police issued a statement calling on the public to be wary of accepting parcels sent by strangers or packages "sent by non-proper channels". The local postal service has halted all deliveries until Saturday. The parcel bombs on Wednesday targeted a prison, a railway station, a hospital and a shopping centre among other locations. State media said 51 people were injured in the afternoon's blasts. A video reportedly of one of Wednesday's blasts taken from a street surveillance camera has since emerged, showing a person being catapulted out of a shop as a bomb goes off inside. Another person walking down the street past the shop is knocked to the ground by the powerful blast. The BBC's John Sudworth in Beijing says there have been a number of cases in China of disaffected people with a legal grievance against the authorities using explosive devices in public attacks.

Media playback is not supported on this device Everton took the lead inside two minutes when a ball from Tom Cleverley released Lennon down the right and he crossed low for Kone to tap in. Lennon effectively ended hopes of an upset when he received Bryan Oviedo's centre and squeezed in an angled shot. And Barkley's deflected long-range effort capped an assured display. The 1995 winners will now travel to take on Bournemouth in the fifth round. League Two Carlisle's best chance came at 1-0 down when Derek Asamoah fired straight at Joel Robles. The Cumbrians' exit means there are now no sides from outside the top three divisions remaining in the FA Cup. Everton meanwhile continue their strong recent record in the FA Cup and will be in the fifth-round draw for the fifth time in the last six seasons. Everton surrendered a first-leg lead in losing to Manchester City in the League Cup semi-final on Tuesday, and manager Roberto Martinez has come under pressure this season after a series of underwhelming results. But the Spaniard is well aware of the importance of the FA Cup - having won the competition with Wigan in 2013 - and he named a strong side, with Phil Jagielka, Ramiro Funes Mori, Cleverly and Barkley all retained from that midweek defeat. Cleverley in particular was outstanding, having more touches than anyone else on the pitch and finding the target with 95% of his passes. And despite the lowly calibre of the opposition, this was the kind of display that will give Martinez hope that his side can add to their six league wins and finish the season strongly. Much effort had gone in to making sure the pitch at Brunton Park was playable after the stadium was flooded during Storm Desmond. But while the newly-laid surface held firm, Keith Curle's side were swamped by Everton's pace and verve in attacking areas. The hosts had just 29.7% of possession and only managed two shots on target. Their attentions now turn to making a late push for the League Two play-off places. Carlisle manager Keith Curle: "It wasn't ideal with the two early goals, very quickly you are on to plan B. We knew how good they were and wanted to try and contain them for as long as possible. "Two down after 14 minutes you know it was going to be a long afternoon. Credit for the players to the way they responded. "It was a fantastic experience for our players. We got turned over by a fantastic team. A lot of praise has to go to everybody, hopefully we have done a lot of people proud." Everton manager Roberto Martinez: "We knew that you can allow these games to be very complicated. I thought we dealt with it with an incredible professionalism. The start of the game allowed us to control the rest of it. "The fourth round of the FA Cup always brings excitement. I thought we played well and controlled the threat that Carlisle can bring. We scored three goals, created chances and overall we deserved it and look forward to a draw." Carlisle face Accrington in League Two on Saturday, while Everton host Newcastle in the Premier League on Wednesday evening.

The 32-year-old from England, who won the British Open in 2013 and became world champion in 2014, will become world number one for the first time on 1 January. "Having already won a British Open and a World Championship, it was probably the last box to tick, so for me it is absolutely massive," said Massaro. "There's nothing planned but, as it will be New Year's Eve, I'll be with friends and family and can celebrate as the clock ticks down." Massaro, from Chorley, will be England's third female number one and the first since Cassie Campion in 2004. But just eight months ago her form was so poor she decided to take a break from squash for the first time. 'When I lost in Chicago I thought it can't get any worse than this' Defeat by compatriot Emma Beddoes in the second round of the Windy City Open in March brought matters to a head. "My disappointment had nothing at all to do with the quality of my opponent and I didn't feel unmotivated," said Massaro. "I was just losing matches and didn't know why. "I was giving 100%, I just wasn't able to play the level of squash that I wanted. "It was the people around me who said I looked tired and exhausted and needed a break to see where I wanted my squash to go. "I'd been on tour 12 years without a break. It wasn't for lack of trying but there was something missing." It was hearing a similar story from a different sport that helped convince Massaro she should actually take a five-week break from squash. "My husband, Danny, had seen a BBC Sport article with tennis player Petra Kvitova and said: 'You need to read this.' "I did and thought it's exactly how I feel. She had won Wimbledon just a couple of months after I had won the worlds and it was almost like we were on the same path. "Danny and I went on holiday and I finally started to wake up not thinking about squash. The fog started to lift and I could see where I wanted to go in the future and that I had more to give to the sport. "You don't want to take time off, but I came back and changed my physical trainer, shifted a few things around to get a little bit of freshness back and a new direction, and it's all worked really well." 'At 32 I just don't think you can keep going relentlessly' Massaro returned to action at the British Open in May and quickly demonstrated the rejuvenating effect of her time off with a stunning semi-final victory from two games down against world champion Nicol David. She could not finish the job, losing to France's Camille Serme in the final but felt vindicated by her change of approach. "I made the final of the British Open... that reinforced it was the right decision at the time," said Massaro. The benefits continue to shine through, with a recent 14-match unbeaten run that included titles at the Macau, Qatar and US Opens propelling her towards the top of the rankings. "I've made a conscious decision to take a little bit of a break sometimes," she said. "That's the deal I've made with myself... train hard but try and have weekend breaks and three or four days off every now and then. "But when I'm in my training zone, I'm working perhaps harder than I've ever done before." 'My goal is to play the best level of squash ever played by a woman' Massaro will replace Egypt's Raneem El Welily at the top of the rankings on 1 January, but it is Malaysia's David, currently ranked third, who has been the sport's dominant force over the past decade. The 32-year-old has won eight of the past 10 world titles and was world number one for a record nine years until July. "Nicole will go down as the best female player in history with the success she's had," said Massaro. "We came through juniors together, and on one hand it's been unfortunate to be there with someone who's been so successful. "But she's driven the sport forward and I've been part of trying to catch someone and eventually been able to raise my level to beat her on a fairly consistent level... probably a lot more than anybody else. "I try to look at it as would I be the player I am if there wasn't someone at the top of the sport pulling away all the time, with me trying to hang onto their heels and drag my own level up?" Massaro will never match the Malaysian's incredible list of titles, but her immediate goal is to hang on to the number one ranking and then push the boundaries of what is possible for women's squash. "As number one, my level is obviously the best in the world at the moment and I just have to try and keep improving, so other people are looking at me as though that's where we need to be and who we need to catch," she said. "That's a nice goal for me to set my sights on."
Laura Massaro will have more reason than most to enjoy the countdown to New Year on Thursday night as it will bring with it the last major prize in squash.

Miss Payne, from Coventry, vanished as she crossed wasteland towards her parents' house in 1991. On Monday, two men, Nigel Barwell and his brother-in-law, Thomas O'Reilly, both 51, were found not guilty of the 18-year-old's murder. Her family say they are more determined than ever to find out what happened. Nicola's parents, John and Marilyn Payne, both aged 70, said they will be talking to the senior detective in the case about possible future developments and that West Midlands Police have assured them the case will not be closed. Updates on this story and others from Coventry and Warwickshire Police advised them they would be entitled to sue the force over mistakes made in the investigation, but they said have no intention to do so. "We are just focussed on finding the truth," they said. "I just want the three Cs - conviction, closure and comfort," Mrs Payne said. The couple said they had made their eldest son, Nigel Payne, promise that if they die before the truth about Nicola is known, then she will be buried along side them. The murder trial at Birmingham Crown Court had heard lawyers on behalf of Mr Barwell describe the handling of exhibits at a police station in the early 1990s as "shambolic". Mark Dennis QC said the handling of a tent exhibited in the case made forensic examination of it "a worthless exercise". After the not guilty verdicts were returned, Det Supt Mark Payne, of West Midlands Police, said he had offered his apologies to Miss Payne's parents for any mistakes that may have happened over the intervening 24-year period. "We will continue to revisit the evidence available and explore any opportunity to bring any offenders to justice," he said.
The parents of Nicola Payne have made their children promise to bury her alongside them if the truth about her disappearance is ever discovered.

Researchers at Check Point said they found the malware, dubbed Judy, on about 50 apps in Google's Play Store. The apps contain code that sends infected devices to a target webpage, where they generate fraudulent clicks on the site's adverts to make money for its creators. The infected apps have been removed from the Play Store. More than 40 of the apps were from the South Korean developer, Kiniwini, which publishes games to the Play Store under the name Enistudio. The games, all of which feature a character called Judy, have been downloaded between four million and 18 million times. The malicious code was also found in several apps from other developers. "It is possible that one borrowed code from the other, knowingly or unknowingly," said Check Point. Between them, the infected apps may have been downloaded up to 36.5 million times. Check Point said it did not know for how long the malicious versions of the apps had been available, but all the Judy games had been updated since March this year. The oldest of the apps from other developers was last updated in April 2016, which Check Point suggested, means that "the malicious code hid for a long time on the Play Store undetected". Because it is unclear when the code was introduced to each of the apps, the actual number of devices likely to have been infected is unknown. The apps got past the Play Store's protection system, Google Bouncer, because they do not contain the malicious part of the Judy code. Once downloaded, the apps silently register the device to a remote server, which responds by sending back the malicious ad-click software to open a hidden website and generate revenue for the site by clicking on the adverts. This kind of delivery "has become commonplace", Andrew Smith, a senior lecturer in Networking at the Open University, told the BBC. "There are many tools available, and the advantage is that the malware distributor can change them remotely, which makes it difficult for anti-malware software to keep up." The apps also display numerous adverts themselves, some of which cannot be closed until a user has clicked on them.
More than 36 million Android devices may have been infected with ad-click malware, a security firm has said.

Unison said staff in sterilisation and disinfection units and radiology departments are "infuriated" their claim to be paid the same as colleagues in other hospitals has not been taken seriously. Unison is "confident" members will vote in favour of strike action. The health board said it is "fully committed" to resolving concerns. Unison said it has repeatedly put the case for pay parity to managers, but the "exasperation at the lack of progress has turned to anger". The ballot affects band two assistant technical officers (ATO) in hospital sterilisation and disinfection units and band two clerical officers in radiology. There are 128 such staff working at Morriston and Singleton hospitals in Swansea, Neath Port Talbot and Princess of Wales, Bridgend, although not all are Unison members. Unison said ATO staff are employed on band three pay in most of Wales, with ABMU workers worse off by between £466 and £1,879 a year. It also argued that their job description is "hopelessly outdated." Radiology staff are said to be similarly affected by a dispute over pay banding. Mark Turner, Unison organiser for ABMU, said: "Simple justice says two healthcare workers in the Wales NHS, with the same role, responsibilities and experience, should be paid the same rate for the job. "Staff are so angry they are likely to vote for strike action. They cannot understand why their health board values their work less than peers doing exactly the same job." He added: "The sterilisation and disinfection unit might be 'behind the scenes' work but it is essential to the effective running of the hospital". ABMU Health Board said it was "sorry" its discussions with Unison have been unable to resolve staff concerns. A spokeswoman said: "We would like to make it clear that all our staff - no matter what their role within the health board - are valued and all of them contribute equally to the care of our patients. "Only in Cardiff and Vale Health Board where restructuring has taken place, and Hywel Dda Health Board where a different service is provided, are ATOs a band three. "We have been working with Unison to develop a new job description for ATOs and have reached agreement on all areas apart from the necessary qualification." She added that they are also working with the radiology department to address any concerns staff have. "ABMU is fully committed to continuing its partnership work with UNISON," she said. "In the meantime, we would like to reassure patients should strike action go ahead we will be working to ensure any disruption to services are minimal." Thomas Bow City Asphalt built landmarks including the Raleigh factory extension and the University of Nottingham's Trent Building. It was set up after founder Lawrence Bow arrived in Nottingham in 1867. Chairman Alistair Bow said the company's connection to the city was a source of pride for the family. Mr Bow, who is among the sixth generation to run the firm, said: "You can't drive more than a quarter of a mile without going past an old Thomas Bow landmark. "It's something I'm immensely proud of and I know my dad would have been, to think you could still be working and operating with the same company name 150 years later." The company, which was named after the founder's son, is trying to track down former employees to help extend the Thomas Bow archive. Commercial manager Andrew Jackaman said: "It could be as simple as a picture of a relative on a building site or it could be anecdotes. "All this pieced together to give us a bit more of a history." The firm was responsible for the Raleigh factory extension, which was opened by the Duke of Edinburgh in 1952, and the extensions to the former Wilford Power Station. The company also built a number of smaller buildings all over the city including the former branch of Barclays Bank in the Old Market Square.

Wenger, 66, celebrates 20 years as Arsenal boss next month and is out of contract in the summer of 2017. According to L'Equipe, PSG tried to recruit him in 2011, 2013 and 2014. Asked why he had turned PSG down, Wenger said: "I always remained loyal to Arsenal because it's a club that has the qualities I love - and that's why." Arsenal have won three league titles and six FA Cups during Wenger's reign. However, they have not won the Premier League since 2003-04 and some fans have called for Wenger to leave. PSG have been crowned French champions for the past four seasons and have reached the Champions League quarter-finals four times in a row. Beaten in the last eight by Manchester City earlier this year, they are backed by wealthy owners Qatari Sports Investments, who Wenger says he "knows well". The Frenchman added: "PSG are a good test for us. They're a team who are, in France, the team above everyone else." Arsenal are seventh in the Premier League, with seven points from four games. PSG are seventh in Ligue 1, with seven points from four games. Swiss side Basel entertain Bulgarian outfit Ludogorets in the other Group A contest on Tuesday. Although monthly figures can be very volatile, it is the largest such fall for nearly five years. One economist said it was evidence of the increasing squeeze on consumers. A separate report warned that five million low-paid workers have been completely priced out of either renting or buying a home. The Nationwide figures showed that on the more reliable annual comparison, house prices were up 3.5% in March from a year earlier, compared with rate of 4.5% in February. The average UK house price is now £207,308, the building society said. "The South of England continued to see slightly stronger price growth than the North of England, but there was a further narrowing in the differential," said Robert Gardner, Nationwide's chief economist. "Northern Ireland saw a slight pickup in annual house price growth, while conditions remained relatively subdued in Scotland and Wales." Howard Archer, chief UK economist at IHS Global Insight, said the news "fuels our belief that the housing market is being increasingly affected by the increasing squeeze on consumers and their concerns over the outlook." A separate report from the National Housing Federation (NHF) said there was now only one town in England where a low-paid worker could afford a mortgage. It said Burnley in Lancashire was the only place that a nursery nurse, for example, could afford to buy. House prices in England had risen by 120% between 2002 and 2016, the NHF said, while salaries had risen by just 38% over the same period. As far as renting is concerned, it said there was no area of the country where low-income workers paid less than 30% of their monthly salaries on rent. "This analysis makes for truly depressing reading," said David Orr, chief executive of the NHF. "Low-income workers are left with fewer affordable options than ever, even though their jobs are absolutely critical to local economies." Where can I afford to live?

He added that "the buck must stop" with LTA chief executive Michael Downey, who he says has done "a poor job". Following Great Britain's Davis Cup victory, Andy Murray said that speaking to the LTA about the future of British tennis is a waste of his time. "The LTA do not run the game very well. They haven't for many, many, many years," Lloyd told BBC World Service. "They have poor management, poor systems." The former Davis Cup captain and successful businessman said the LTA had invested millions "but not in the right places". LTA boss Downey said in a statement on Tuesday: "We value the opinions of all of our players on how we grow the game in Britain and our door is always open to Andy, Dan [Evans], Dom [Inglot], James [Ward], Jamie [Murray] and Kyle [Edmund] to hear their views and work collaboratively with them and all of our partners." Media playback is not supported on this device Murray criticised British tennis' governing body after inspiring his country's first Davis Cup win in 79 years against Belgium in Ghent over the weekend. The 28-year-old said he "did not know where the next generation are" and that on a visit to the National Tennis Centre (NTC) in October he found "not one person using any of the indoor courts and not one person in the gym". Lloyd, 67, who accused Murray of not putting enough back into the British game before the Davis Cup final, said it is "fantastic" that the Scot spoke out as he has "enormous power in controlling the way the game should be run". "Someone must take the blame," Lloyd added. "Bob Brett was hired [as director of player development] and then left within a year, not because he wasn't good but he was in the wrong job. They hired him for a job that he can't do. "You've got to put people in the right positions if you're running a company. The buck has to stop at the chief executive's door. He has done a poor job." Lloyd, who says he twice applied for the LTA chief executive job but was turned down on both occasions, believes the governing body squanders the annual funding it receives from profits generated by the Wimbledon championship. "We get over £30m a year given to us free of charge from the All England Club, which is the best tournament in the world, but we have a very poor standard. It doesn't make sense," he said. "Andy Murray is a great player but we have no juniors coming through. We have no system." Meanwhile, former British women's number one Anne Keothavong told BBC Radio 5 live that the people running the LTA did not "share the passion" of the Murray family and "so many other people" in British tennis. Keothavong said that after retiring two and a half years ago, she offered to volunteer at the NTC in Roehampton but had only been contacted once since then, which she described as "ridiculous". She added: "You've got to make the most of the people who are passionate about the game. There are so many people in British tennis who want to give back, who want to do a lot of things, but maybe they're seen as threats."
British tennis is "a mess" and the Lawn Tennis Association must make changes, says former player David Lloyd.

There have been 21 million pound winners in the G postcode since 2014 - more than any other area in the UK. Glasgow also had 106 millionaire wins since the first draw in 1994, ranking it second in the UK to Birmingham. But the Paisley postcode area - PA - was named the luckiest in Scotland with most winners per head of population for prizes of £50,000 and above. Andy Carter, senior winners' advisor for The National Lottery, said: "Scotland has been enjoying plenty of National Lottery luck recently with residents of the Paisley postcode celebrating the most big wins. "Glasgow has secured its position as the country's Lottery millionaire capital too producing nearly two a month over the past couple of years. "There are now a massive 4,250 National Lottery millionaires across the country and with more than six new millionaires made every week there is likely to be another local winner made soon."

The hosts wasted a great chance to break the deadlock in the 21st minute when Danny Whitehead's cross was fired over at the far post by Chris Holroyd, who went close again a couple of minutes later when he wriggled his way through the Solihull defence but shot the wrong side of the post. However, the Silkmen broke the deadlock at the start of the second half when Holroyd got the goal his efforts deserved by heading in Whitehead's free-kick. Solihull nearly equalised moments later as Jack Byrne's header struck the crossbar via a deflection and the ball was scrambled away, but George Carline levelled 12 minutes from time with a bullet header from Connor Franklin's cross. Byrne headed in a free-kick from Ash Sammons to put Moors in front in the 85th minute and Regan Charles-Cook latched on to an Andy Brown flick in stoppage time to make the points safe.

Albion Rovers' game at home to Queen's Park was called off due to a waterlogged pitch after a 09:30 inspection. Leaders Livingston blamed "relentless overnight rain" for their game against Stenhousemuir following suit. But games hosted by Berwick Rangers and Stirling Albion both survived. Berwick, who are playing Elgin City in League Two, said their pitch passed an inspection at 11:00. As did Stirling's Forthbank Stadium surface, where Edinburgh City are the visitors. A Dutch court rejected attempts by a group of shareholders to force a special shareholder meeting aimed at ousting the company's chairman. Antony Burgmans is seen as the main obstacle to the PPG takeover bid. Hedge fund Elliott Advisors, which brought the case to court, has urged Akzo to "engage" with PPG. But The Enterprise Chamber, a commercial court of the Netherlands, ruled that Akzo was not required to hold the special meeting or to include investors in its response to the PPG bid. A spokesperson for Elliott Advisors said it was "disappointed". "Elliott is considering the implications of this judgment for shareholder rights in the Netherlands and for its next steps in relation to Akzo Nobel," he added. Akzo has rejected three successive takeover offers from PPG since March, saying the €26.9bn (£22.8bn) offer undervalued the firm and showed a "lack of cultural understanding of the brand". The Dutch company, which claims its own plans for growth are superior, has also been urged to reject the merger by the Dutch government and its own workers. PPG will now need to decide whether to walk away from Akzo Nobel, or go directly to shareholders with a hostile takeover offer. The US firm suggested its third bid earlier this month was its last friendly attempt to merge with Akzo and indicated it had not ruled out putting the matter directly to shareholders. Under official takeover rules, the firm has until 1 June to decide. After the court ruling, PPG said it "remains willing to meet with Akzo Nobel regarding a potential combination of the two companies". "But without productive engagement, PPG will assess and decide whether or not to pursue an offer for Akzo Nobel," it said. Akzo says its own plans for the firm - which involve spinning off its chemicals division into a separate business - would better serve shareholders. It has promised to increase its dividend for 2017 by half and pay a €1bn special cash dividend in November.

Reds boss Jurgen Klopp wants to boost his attacking options and is willing to make Mane one of the biggest signings in the club's history to do it. Liverpool and Southampton will continue to hold talks over the 24-year-old, with the fee a possible sticking point. The Saints are likely to want around £40m for a player who scored 11 goals in 37 Premier League games last season. This is around £10m more than the top end of Liverpool's price range, so there is still more negotiating to be done before any deal can be concluded. The process might also be delayed by the fact that Southampton are still without a manager following the departure of Ronald Koeman to Everton. Klopp was impressed by Mane, heavily linked with Manchester United during Louis van Gaal's time at Old Trafford, when he scored twice as Southampton came from 2-0 down to beat Liverpool 3-2 at St Mary's on 20 March. Alongside England striker Daniel Sturridge and Belgium youngster Divock Origi, Mane would add pace and a goalscoring threat. Liverpool would seek to recoup much of the money they spend on the Senegal international by selling striker Christian Benteke, who has struggled after his £32m switch from Aston Villa. If he makes the move, Mane will be treading a well-worn path between Southampton and Liverpool. Adam Lallana, Dejan Lovren, Rickie Lambert and Nathaniel Clyne have all moved to Anfield since the summer of 2014. It would also give Saints a handsome profit on a player they bought from Salzburg for £10m two years ago. It would also make Mane the third biggest signing in Liverpool's history behind Benteke and Andy Carroll, who came from Newcastle United in a £35m deal. Southampton have also sold midfield man Victor Wanyama to Tottenham for £11m at the start of what could be another summer of transition at St Mary's. George Thompson was convicted of supplying cocaine and amphetamine between 18 July and 21 November 2014. A jury found him guilty of two charges at the High Court in Livingston. Judge Lord Ballantyne told greyhound breeder Thompson, of Livingston, he would be remanded in custody until sentence at the High Court in Edinburgh in July. Thompson's son Stuart, 36, from Uphall, West Lothian, walked free from court on Wednesday after being acquitted of the same charges after the judge ruled that there was insufficient evidence to convict him. Thompson senior had denied handling and dealing in the Class A and Class B drugs at various locations in the central belt and the Scottish Borders between 18 July and 21 November 2014. The jury heard he had been under surveillance by Police Scotland's serious crime and counter terrorism squad for months Officers watched as he made contact with three men who were stopped in possession of controlled drugs shortly after they met him. All three associates were later prosecuted and convicted of drugs offences. Police also monitored Thompson as he made daily visits to West Cairns Farm at Kirknewton, where Alexander Cameron was killed by his tenant James Smith. Smith's wife Helen had reported suspicious late-night movements at the farm which resulted in the major police drugs investigation focusing on Thompson. Police stopped his white Transit van on the A7 near Heriot in the Borders on 20 November 2014 and found half a kilo of cocaine hidden in a compartment above the driver's seat. A search of the accused's home uncovered two bags containing amphetamine in his freezer drawers. A search of the farm uncovered three kilos of high purity cocaine and a kilo of amphetamine, commonly known as 'speed', in kennels used by Thompson. It emerged after Thompson's conviction that he had previously served a three-month prison sentence for being concerned in the supply of controlled drugs. Det Ch Inspector Kenny Gray from the East Organised Crime and Counter Terrorism Unit said: "There is no doubt that George Thompson was heavily involved in the distribution of drugs throughout the Lothians and Scottish Borders, given the significant quantity of Class A drugs we seized from vehicles and properties linked to him. "The cocaine was of a very high-purity and we are delighted to have recovered it before it could cause untold harm to our communities. "Tackling drug crime is a priority for Police Scotland and we robustly gather and investigate all intelligence from the public relating to those involved in offences of this nature.

The Financial Ombudsman Service has released figures showing an increase in its workload and predicts even more cases to come in 2012. It expects the rise in cases to centre on the areas where many are facing financial pressures. It picks out mortgages as one pinch point in the year to come. But when do people have the right to complain and who is there to help them? There is relatively little awareness of ombudsman services in the UK. Although one key figure has described the services as "fragmented", they remain vital - and free - for consumers who have suffered at the hands of certain public bodies or private sector services. If a consumer has been wronged, then it is the ombudsman's job to see that person is put back in the position they would have been if the injustice had not happened. The Financial Ombudsman Service (FOS) is the biggest ombudsman in the world. The latest figures show that it will expect to have answered 1.2 million consumer enquiries in the current financial year, and take on 259,000 new cases. The level of new cases in 2011-12 would be 25% higher than the previous 12 months, and it expects the trend to continue. Cases arising from the mis-selling of payment protection insurance (PPI) continue to dominate the in-tray, but general insurance disputes have also been on the rise. "This is not welcome news for anyone," says Principal Ombudsman Tony Boorman. He says that the FOS wants businesses that account for the most complaints to pay the biggest levy for the service to run. For example, businesses that face up to three cases do not have to pay a fee, and the FOS wants this to be extended to 25 from April 2013. Those facing the most PPI complaints, however, would pay more. The FOS - as with many other ombudsman services - is a quasi-judicial body that acts as a referee in disputes that businesses or services and their customers cannot resolve. In general, it does not get involved until the business or public body has had a reasonable opportunity to deal with the complaint, usually about eight weeks. If the consumer is still not happy, he or she can ask the ombudsman to investigate. This is free of charge and they do not need to have legal representation. The ombudsman, if it decides to take up the case, will then produce a report including proposals to resolve the problem - such as compensation that would put the consumer back into the position that they would have been in. However, consumers have their own responsibilities when it comes to getting a case heard, according to Peter Tyndall, chairman of the British and Irish Ombudsman Association. They include: For example, the details of the energy ombudsman can be found on gas and electricity bills. The Ombudsman - Lewis Shand Smith - says it is common for people to submit complaints before the energy company has been given time to look into the issues. He says another misconception is that the ombudsman has the power to punish companies, or tell them to lower their prices. Ombudsman services cover a whole host of areas - from telecommunications to housing. One of the most high-profile is the parliamentary ombudsman which deals with complaints to government departments and other public bodies. Tax credits generate the most complaints. But while many areas are covered by ombudsman services, some are not - most notably transport. This is different to many European countries, where there are regional and national ombudsman. As part of its planned accession to the EU, Turkey has been told it must have an ombudsman. Peter Tyndall also has concerns that services are "fragmented" in the UK. He explains that on issues of tax, immigration, and even in dealings with the DVLA, consumers have to go through their MP to have their case looked at by the parliamentary ombudsman. Meanwhile, there are inconsistencies in the devolved powers of the UK. For instance, as the Public Services Ombudsman for Wales, Mr Tyndall has the power to investigate complaints against hospitals or council-run care homes, but not complaints against independently-run hospices. And even the ombudsman association itself has strict rules of membership, fearing that some private ombudsman services are not suitably independent from the industry they cover, or have sufficient resources to investigate cases properly. Yet, overall, there is often an ombudsman - an independent referee - that can deal with disputes. For those who have been wronged, it can make it worthwhile to complain.
At a time when some people are losing their jobs and others are losing access to credit - they still have the right, when facing injustice, to complain.

The blog, published on 5 April, details the history of the 114-room mansion, which is often described as Mr Trump's "winter White House". House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi and Oregon Senator Ron Wyden accused the state department of promoting Mr Trump's "private club". The department has issued no comment. In her tweet, Ms Pelosi wrote: "Why is @realDonaldTrump's State Dept promoting the President's private club? #Trump100Days." Meanwhile, Sen Wyden, an Oregon Democrat, wrote: "Yes, I am curious @StateDept. Why are taxpayer $$ promoting the President's private country club?" State department spokesman Mark Toner was not aware of the post when the issue was raised by the media on Monday, CNN reports. The blog post says that "Mar-a-Lago, President Trump's Florida estate, has become well known as the president frequently travels there to work or host foreign leaders". Mr Trump has hosted Chinese President Xi Jinping and Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe at the resort. The post also states that Mr Trump "is not the first president to have access to Mar-a-Lago as a Florida retreat, but he is the first one to use it. "By visiting this 'winter White House,' Trump is belatedly fulfilling the dream of Mar-a-Lago's original owner and designer." Has Trump kept his promises? 100 voters reflect on Trump's 100 days How much has Trump achieved so far? Since taking office, the president has spent seven weekends at Mar-a-Lago, which he bought in 1985 and turned into a private members club. His visits have led to concerns over costs and mixing business with politics. The club has raised its initiation fees from from $100,000 to $200,000 (£78,190-156,380) following Mr Trump's election. Since Mr Trump's inauguration, Democratic groups and ethics watchdogs have been monitoring whether there has been a potential conflict of interest that could benefit his business holdings while he is in office. In December, Mr Trump announced that he planned to shut his charitable foundation, although an investigation into its practices continues. Cole's expletive-laden response to the fan followed a 2-2 draw between the Hammers and Spurs on 22 February, a game he had played in. An FA independent commission will now meet to decide his punishment. In April 2011, Cole, 31, was fined £20,000 for comments he made on Twitter during England's friendly with Ghana. On that occasion, he wrote: "Immigration has surrounded the Wembley premises! I knew it was a trap! "The only way to get out safely is to wear an England jersey and paint your face w/ the St George's flag!" He later deleted the comments and apologised, describing them as a "light-hearted joke". Cole has made 17 appearances for the Hammers this season and scored three goals. He is accused of attacking a 36-year-old man on a Metrolink service near Beswick early on 8 October. Michael Niles, 49, of Wood Street, Ashton-Under-Lyne, is charged with serious assault and possession of a bladed weapon.

Graham Carey rewarded early Plymouth pressure with another superb goal for the hosts. Oscar Threlkeld attacked down the left before teeing up playmaker Carey, who curled his effort home from 20 yards. Shrimps goalkeeper Barry Roche had a busy first half, saving well from Jake Jervis and Gary Miller. The visitors' best effort came from former Argyle forward Lee Molyneux, who swept a 25-yard shot just wide of goal in the 33rd minute. A minute later Threlkeld looped a header just over Roche's crossbar as Plymouth continued to press. Morecambe made a better start to the second half but it was Argyle who went close again through Carey. Jervis should have doubled Plymouth's advantage but was unable to take his chance.

James Brokenshire was appointed by the Prime Minister Theresa May after she took over from David Cameron last week. Mr Brokenshire will be working alongside a Northern Ireland Executive which is deeply divided over the UK's plan to leave the European Union. He said last week that Northern Ireland's interests need to be protected during the Brexit process. The Conservative MP for Old Bexley and Sidcup was in favour of a remain vote in last month's EU referendum. Mrs May also voted to remain, but after the result she said Brexit "means Brexit" and she vowed to make a success of leading the UK out of the EU. Mr Brokenshire has already served under Mrs May at the Home Office. He spent four years working as a security minister while she was home secretary. During that role, he had oversight of the work of MI5 and the national police counter-terrorism network. In his new role, Mr Brokenshire's priorities include the implementation of the Stormont House and Fresh Start agreements, tackling paramilitarism and dealing with the legacy of the Troubles. He has already said there should be no border controls between the UK and the Republic of Ireland. He replaced Brexit campaigner Theresa Villiers, who quit the government after turning down Mrs May's offer of a new, non-cabinet role. Pakistan lost the rain-shortened match by 124 runs at Edgbaston.

The Shakers were 3-0 down within 16 minutes at the Ricoh Arena and conceded a fourth before half-time. Defeat means Bury have taken just four points from their last eight games in League One. "The first thing is to apologise for the performance and the unacceptable way we've conceded," Flitcroft told BBC Radio Manchester. "The way we represented here today is not the way I want my Bury team to represent the supporters, the board and the football club. "We've got to take that responsibility as a group, we've got to take that on and understand that it won't, and can't, happen again. "It's not a disappointment it's a feeling of emptiness inside that I've got and I'll come out fighting." Although the January transfer window has closed, the loan window is now open and Flitcroft is hoping to add new recruits. "If I get an opportunity to bring in a couple of players then I think that's what the squad needs," he added. "We've been working hard on that now the window's open and we're going to have to really try and drive that forward as we look very vulnerable at the back."
Bury boss David Flitcroft apologised to their supporters for their performance in the 6-0 loss at Coventry.
