Mr Smith said he could support the move if the UK was in recession or the NHS was "on its knees". He has previously called for the public to have a say on the terms of the UK's Brexit deal. Mr Smith promised to fight a general election making a "really strong case for us to stay" in the EU. But if Theresa May formally triggers Brexit using Article 50 of the Lisbon Treaty next year, the UK will have left the bloc before the next scheduled general election in 2020. Speaking on the BBC's Andrew Marr Show, Mr Smith - who is pitching himself as more pro-EU than current Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn - said it was hard to answer a "hypothetical question" about what he would do if he took over with the UK already outside the EU. But he said if the "price of staying out" was a recession and damage to the NHS "then I think the sensible and responsible thing for a Labour government to do is to say we are better off in the European Union". Asked if that meant the UK accepting the euro and becoming part of the passport-free Schengen zone, he said "potentially - but again we are getting into hypotheticals built on hypotheticals". Despite June's vote to leave the EU, Mr Smith predicted "we will be telling a very different story to the British people" in the future if people's livelihoods are suffering. He reiterated his call for a second referendum or a general election - to take place before the UK leaves the EU - on the terms agreed for Brexit. Mr Corbyn's team pointed out that the leader of the GMB union - one of Mr Smith key backers - had disagreed with him on his calls for a second referendum. Tim Roache told Sky News: "I think that boat has sailed," adding that "democracy has determined that we are coming out of Europe". Mr Corbyn's spokesman said: "If he (Mr Smith) can't unite his own supporters, how can he unite our party?" Labour will announce its new leader at a special conference on 24 September, with the party divided between MPs opposed to Mr Corbyn and the leader's support base among members. The MPs who signed a no-confidence motion in Mr Corbyn were criticised by union leaders at a rally ahead of the TUC conference in Brighton. Steve Gillan, of the Prison Officers' Association, called for Mr Corbyn to be re-elected to implement "proper socialist policies", while Mick Cash of the RMT said the critical MPs had given the Conservatives "an easy ride".

It affects "all customers served by our US data centre" and perpetrators had "the ability to decrypt encrypted data", according to The Register. Those affected have been advised to visit a registration-only support page, outlining the steps they need to take. Security experts said the breach was "embarrassing" and showed every company was open to attack. OneLogin is a single sign-on service, allowing users to access multiple apps and sites with just one password. In 2013, the company had 700 business customers and passed 12 million licensed users. Apps and sites integrated into the service include Amazon Web Services, Microsoft Office 365, Slack, Cisco Webex, Google Analytics and LinkedIn. "We have since blocked this unauthorized access, reported the matter to law enforcement, and are working with an independent security firm to determine how the unauthorized access happened," chief information security officer Alvaro Hoyos said on the company's blog. "We are actively working to determine how best to prevent such an incident from occurring in the future." Users who log in to the site have been given a list of steps designed to minimise the risk to their data. These include: Some customers have criticised OneLogin for requiring users to log in to see the list. The company has not yet responded to a BBC request for comment. In its email to customers, OneLogin told them that "because this is still an active investigation involving law enforcement, there are certain details we can't comment on at this time. "We understand how frustrating this might be and thank you for your patience while we continue the investigation." "Companies need to understand the risks of using cloud-based systems," Professor Bill Buchanan of Edinburgh Napier University told the BBC. "Increasingly they need to encrypt sensitive information before they put it within cloud systems, and watch that their encryption keys are not distributed to malicious agents. "It is almost impossible to decrypt data that uses strong encryption, unless the encryption key has been generated from a simple password," he said. IT security consultant Ben Schlabs told the BBC it was likely the compromised data included passwords protected using "hashing" - converting the data into fixed-length strings of characters or numbers. "The security of data would then depend on the strength of the passwords, and of the password hashes," he said. "I would happily store my properly encrypted password safe in any cloud service, because you don't know my password for that safe and I trust encryption." The strongest encryption system "hasn't been broken yet, and there's no sign that it should be," he said.

Shropshire Fire Service was called to The Mill Hotel in Alveley, near Bridgnorth, shortly after 05:00 BST. Area manager John Das-Gupta said the blaze had "compromised the integrity of the building". The service said it received numerous calls alerting it to the fire "due to smoke being visible from a number of miles away". The Shropshire service sent 11 fire engines and was supported by firefighters from across the region, including from Staffordshire, the West Midlands and Hereford and Worcester. An investigation has begun into the cause of the blaze. Earlier, area manager Andy Johnson said the fire involved "the whole of the building", which covers three floors. Because of the scale of the blaze crews were expected to remain at the site through Monday night. Neil Griffiths from the fire service said crews were unable to get into the building itself because of its fragile state. A structural engineer is on site. The Mill Hotel, which was a popular wedding venue, closed unexpectedly last September as a result of the financial problems of its owner, Elysian Care.. The building dated back to the 16th Century and was once a working flour mill, according to Visit Heart of England. The 41-bedroom hotel had been "carefully restored and extended" with many of the original features maintained, the tourist information website said.

Provisional data for the 12 months to March 2017 revealed an increase of 4% on the previous year's recycling rate of 60%. Wales is well ahead of the rest of the UK, second in Europe and third in world recycling league tables. Environment Secretary Lesley Griffiths said the statistics made for "extremely satisfying reading". The Welsh Government has set statutory targets for recycling that local authorities must meet or risk facing fines. The target for 2016-17 was 58%, rising to 64% by 2019-20 and then 70% by 2024-25. By 2050, the Welsh Government is aiming for no waste at all ending up in landfill. The figures showed all but one local authority - Blaenau Gwent - met the current 2016-17 target. Top of the recycling league was Ceredigion, recycling 70% of its waste and hitting the 2025 target nine years early. Although Blaenau Gwent missed the 58% target, its 57% recycling rate was an increase on the 49% seen a year earlier. Newport and Torfaen have missed targets in recent years but managed to exceed the goal this year. The residual household waste generated per person decreased by 4%, falling to 48kg per person between January and March 2017 compared with the same quarter in 2016. Ms Griffiths said Wales should be "extremely proud of our recycling performance". "This is an area where we lead the way in the UK and indeed just two countries in the whole world recycle more than we do," she said. "We are always looking at how we can continue to improve. Only last week I announced I intend to consult on plans to halve food waste by 2025." The most recent recycling rate for England was 43.9% and 44.2% for Scotland, based on figures for 2015. Recycling experts have put Wales' success down to the introduction of statutory targets and better separate waste collections.

Trevor Francis, 71, was found guilty of two offences of using lewd, indecent and libidinous practices and behaviour towards young girls and three assaults. The children were in his care at the St Margaret's children's home in Elie, Fife, in the mid-1970s. He was given an MBE at Buckingham Palace by Prince Charles in 2012. At Dundee Sheriff Court a sheriff told him: "This was a gross breach of trust." Francis, a qualified nurse, took over as a manager at the home in 1973. He was described as "creepy" and a "Jekyll and Hyde character" who subjected kids there to brutal physical attacks and sexual assaults. Three girls - aged 14 to 16 at the time- told a jury Francis would creep into the girls' dormitory at the home in the night and sexually assault them. A male resident at the home told how he had once run away and got as far as Kirkcaldy where he was picked up by police and taken back. Francis took him into a laundry room and attacked him as punishment. Other victims told how Francis slapped them in the face and beat them with a slipper in violent rages. Fiscal depute Eilidh Robertson told the jury: "He is a manipulative, violent and predatory person who abused the trust of these vulnerable people who he was paid to protect. "But instead he perpetrated physical and sexual abuse towards them and managed to stay undetected because of his Jekyll and Hyde personality. "The accused might seem mild mannered - an upstanding citizen, a family man. "We are dealing with an intelligent, manipulative man who can turn on and off that predatory, violent behaviour." Giving evidence in his own defence Francis said he was "relatively easy going" and claimed to have had a good relationship with the children at the home. Francis, from Aberdour, had denied a total of nine charges on indictment. However, a jury found him guilty by majority. Defence solicitor Kerr Sneddon said: "He maintains his innocence. He therefore can't take responsibility for his actions." Sheriff Alastair Brown also placed him on the sex offenders register for 10 years.

An analysis for the party found that Scotland's 32 councils owe £11.5bn between them. The money is owed to banks and a scheme set up by the UK Treasury. A typical council spends the equivalent of 42% of its council tax money servicing the debts, the research indicated. One council - Comhairle nan Eilean Siar (Western Isles Council) - spends more servicing its debts than it raises in council tax locally, although the authority told BBC Scotland its financial arrangements were exceptional. The analysis also found that Clackmannanshire, Dundee, Edinburgh, Glasgow, Highland, Inverclyde, South Lanarkshire and West Dunbartonshire councils all spent at least half of their council tax revenue servicing debt. The council tax makes up about 15% of a typical council's budget. The Greens said the "unethical" nature of the loans meant the Treasury and the banks concerned should cancel them. In the last financial year, Scottish councils spent almost £1bn on repayments to the Public Works Loan Board of the UK Treasury and still owe the board a total of almost £9bn. Patrick Harvie, finance spokesman for the Scottish Greens, said: "Given the crisis facing local authority finances, it's unacceptable that councils are using council tax revenue to deal with historic debts that enrich private banks and the UK Treasury. "The unethical nature of the loans from private banks justifies cancellation of these payments, and the Westminster government should write off council debts to end the unfair squeeze on local services." Councils say they borrowed the money to invest in the local infrastructure - not to help them balance their books. Some say direct comparisons with the amount raised locally in council tax could be misleading. The council tax in the Western Isles is the lowest in Scotland and makes up an unusually-low proportion of the council's budget. A spokesman for the council said: "These figures reflect the fact there has been substantial investment in the islands because of the needs of the islands. The investments have been in the much-needed improvements in the infrastructure of the islands. "Our low population base and lower than the Scottish average housing values means that revenue from council tax is very low and only accounts for about 8% of our total revenue, which is mainly made up of [Scottish] government grant." He added: "The servicing of the debt is not based on council tax so, whilst it is a high percentage figure, that simply reflects the investment that the comhairle and government recognised was needed in the islands." Comhairle nan Eilean Siar said that like other councils it had been through extremely challenging financial circumstances in recent years. Those circumstances showed no sign of improving so the council said it faced choices ahead. Local government umbrella body Cosla said councils borrowed money "extremely responsibly" and worked to a code when they did this. A spokesman said: "Loans are taken out to fund vital infrastructure which is integral to the services which are provided to support communities. Councils operate within strict guidelines through well-established Treasury management policies and they apply the Prudential Code on affordability to ensure that debt is not a burden on the council or its communities. "Nonetheless, we are all very aware that councils are facing extremely difficult financial circumstances, with the prospect of another difficult financial settlement, and anything that can be done by the UK government, as part of the Chancellor's Autumn Statement, to help alleviate these pressures and free up resources to protect services to our communities would be welcome." A Treasury spokesman said: "Historic debt is the responsibility of individual local authorities. The government has no plans to change this position. "Responsibility for borrowing decisions lies with the locally-elected members of the council, who are democratically accountable to their electorates."

Hughes was the deserved man of the match after tearing the Yorkshire side to shreds during Derby's 3-1 win in a match played in front of the television cameras earlier this month. There was his wonderfully disguised threaded pass that led to Conor Sammon putting the Rams in front and a stand-out mazy run with the sort of tight control that hinted at a youth spent playing futsal. Countless times he knitted his team's play together; always finding space, always willing to take possession and shoulder responsibility. In among the trickery and the attacking flair, what really caught the eye was a surging run back towards his own goal that eventually led to a sliding tackle - and with it the end of a promising Leeds attack. It is the sort of form that has seen Hughes linked with a host of top-flight clubs and named as the Football League young player of the month for November. Hughes was presented with his award at Derby's Moor Farm training ground on Thursday morning, his bleach blond hair standing out against the grey December sky. It was his first award as a professional footballer and comes during a period of astounding progress for the modest and intelligent youngster. Last season he made two substitute appearances and one start for the first team. So far this season he has started every Derby fixture apart from the away game at Bolton in late August when he came on as a substitute. There has been no sign of the inconsistency that tends to affect many young players in their breakthrough season and his ability to last the duration of a match has improved throughout the campaign. "'Just give him the ball', that is what we tell the lads," Derby boss Nigel Clough told BBC Sport. "They have the confidence to give him it all over the pitch. "People say 'is he really only 17?'. It is like having a senior pro in the team. His composure belies his age and there are not many 17-year-olds in the country playing to the standard that he is; it sets him apart." Hughes's instantly recognisably hairstyle might hint at a man keen to thrust himself into centre stage, but in conversation with him what stands out is his modesty and willingness to learn. Media playback is not supported on this device He loves to watch Spanish football, trying to pick out little bits from the likes of Xavi and Andres Iniesta, in particular their decision-making on the ball. Ask him to describe his best qualities as a footballer and the answer comes slowly, Hughes eventually opting for his technical and passing ability. Ask him what he can improve and the answer flows - his weaker foot (right), which he is working on after training, the physical aspects of his game, his strength and his speed. Hughes made his debut for the England Under-21 team in November as a substitute in their fixture against Northern Ireland. In doing so he became the second-youngest player to represent the U-21s after Arsenal's Theo Walcott. Given that Hughes went into pre-season focused on claiming a regular place on the bench, it is unsurprising that he is still trying to come to terms with the speed of his progression. "This season has been a whirlwind," said Hughes. "It is weird how fast everything has happened for me, I just could not see that. Over the last 12 months everything has rocketed. I still try to find time to keep in touch with my friends but it is difficult." Hughes, a former pupil at Repton School, has just passed his driving test and has private tutoring at the club, studying A-levels in business studies and politics. He is trying to retain a sense of normality off the pitch. Yet such has been his progress that he is already on his second professional contract - the initial deal he signed when he turned 17 quickly superseded by a new one in October that runs until 2015. England Under-21 boss Stuart Pearce "Will's technically a very sound player. He rarely gave the ball away in training or in the game he played [against Northern Ireland], which is vitally important at international level. He's progressing really well." Derby academy director Darren Wassall "For a 17-year-old to be playing in the first team of a Championship side is very unusual. I bet there are not many 17-year-olds playing at the level Will is week in, week out." Derby manager Nigel Clough "To do what he has done at 17-and-a-half just goes to show the potential that he has got. " The danger is obvious. Increasingly he is being linked with top Premier League clubs - Manchester United, Liverpool and Arsenal among others - and Clough is clearly aware of the need to protect his player, to monitor his development and keep him grounded. "One of the biggest dangers is money," added Clough. "Once you put money into the hands of a 17-year-old, no matter how intelligent and mature they are, there is a chance of it going the wrong way." Clough has told Hughes that if he can get this season and the next right, if he can keep focused and continue to improve, then money and all the other trappings commensurate with the modern footballer will look after themselves. But Clough admits that Hughes seems so mature that he sometimes has to remind himself just how young the attacking midfielder is; still technically a minor who is not old enough to legally buy alcohol. Hughes has a Twitter account, the mini-bio section of which simply reads 'Happiness is the key'. Why nothing about being a footballer? "I do not want to put anything about football or seem arrogant. I'm still a 17-year-old lad and I have not done anything yet," he said. That is not strictly true. In matter of months he has gone from relative obscurity to one of the hottest young properties in the Football League. On Friday the Derby Academy, where most of his peers still play, breaks up for two weeks. There will be no such chance for Hughes to relax as he excitedly looks forward to his first Christmas as a professional. He will spend the evening of 25 December in a hotel close to Burnley ahead of their game on Boxing Day against the Clarets. Will he spend the evening reading Barcelona's detailed dossier? "That is all a bunch of lies, rumours, as are all the stories about me. I get told about them but they just go straight over my head," Hughes added. BBC Sport will be taking a closer look at stories from outside the Premier League before every weekend league programme in our Football League Friday features.

Traders would pay a fee each time a transaction takes place. The party said it would replace the existing stamp duty on deals involving shares. A transaction tax could raise £20bn a year for the Exchequer and help stabilise markets, the Green Party said. The idea of taxing financial transactions is not new. Sweden introduced a similar tax in the mid-1980s but subsequently abandoned the measure after many trading companies left the country. The European Commission tried to introduce a transaction tax in 2011 but failed in the face of opposition from several EU countries, including the UK. A smaller group of member states - including Germany, France, Spain and Italy - is trying to take the project forward among themselves but have not yet reached an agreement. A transaction tax could raise considerable amounts of money and some say it has the potential to make financial markets less volatile because, for example, it might deter high-volume, short-term, speculative trading. It's also been argued the City should pay more following its role in the financial crisis. Opponents say that the tax could threaten London's success as a financial hub, as companies would relocate elsewhere to avoid higher charges. And there are fears that any additional costs to financial companies would be passed onto consumers. There is also a view that any financial benefits would be dwarfed by the costs of a weaker economy that could result. When the measure was put forward at an EU level, the UK was part of a vanguard of countries to defeat the motion. Britain even took the European Commission to court to challenge the legality of such a tax, although it was unsuccessful. We have yet to see any detail about the Greens' proposed measure. While there are precedents that could help policymakers looking to develop a transaction tax, a UK government seeking to do so would face strong resistance. What's the truth behind the politicians' claims on the campaign trail? Our experts investigate the facts, and wider stories, behind the soundbites.

The authors argue that where disasters like drought are prevalent, they can be the most important cause of poverty. They say that up to 325 million people will be living in countries highly exposed to natural hazards by 2030. If aid is not used to reduce these risks, the progress made in fighting poverty could disappear. The report has been compiled by the Overseas Development Institute. It examines the relationship between disasters and poverty over the next 20 years, using population projections, climate models and estimations of how governments can cope with extreme events. The report suggests that up to a third of a billion people could be living in the 49 countries most exposed to the full range of natural hazards and climate extremes in 2030. In sub-Saharan Africa 118 million people in poverty will face extreme events. The big weather issues that will face most poor people are drought, extreme rainfall and flooding. An analysis of the data from rural Ethiopia and Andhra Pradesh in India suggests that where there is a strong risk of drought, then drought is also the single most important factor in keeping people poor, outstripping ill health or dowry payments. "We've often heard that ill health is the biggest cause for impoverishment," said Dr Tom Mitchell, the ODI's head of climate change. "But in the data, in drought prone areas, the biggest cause is the drought - in areas exposed to these hazards, they are the key causes of impoverishment." Developed countries haven't recognised the role that these extreme weather events have in keeping people poor, he says. The big problem is that, at present, money tends to flow in response to disasters, not to prevent them. Dr Mitchell says the recent Cyclone Phailin in India is a good example. The ODI has compiled a list of the 11 countries most at risk of disaster-reduced poverty. "The very fact that it killed so few people means that the chances of raising big finance for recovery efforts are going to be pretty slim. It has not got the big numbers attached to it," he said. "I think there's a direct link between the ability to raise finance and the number of people killed. It's a perverse incentive." Part of the problem is that donor countries are not prioritising aid at the countries that need it most, in terms of disaster risk reduction. "We've tended to provide much more financial support to a set of middle income countries, who can manage it better like the Philippines, Mexico and Indonesia who made really great strides in protecting their populations," said Dr Mitchell. "What we've not done is focus on the poorest countries, the ones most exposed to issues like drought, for example, sub Saharan Africa, we've almost missed it off." The authors of the report argue that the way that vulnerable countries spend their money needs reforming too. Too often the money is spent on the capital city or on infrastructure and not on the poorest people. The report calls for the post-2015 development goals to include targets on disasters and climate change, to recognise the threat they pose to eradicating poverty by 2030. "If the international community are serious about ending extreme poverty they need to get serious about reducing disaster risk for the poorest people," said Dr Mitchell. "At the moment that's not happening, so the chance of ending extreme poverty is pie in the sky, it is just not going to work." Follow Matt on Twitter.

They say price rises are putting increasing pressure on catering. Plans for a new fruit and vegetables supply contract covering Aberdeen and Aberdeenshire will be discussed by the city's finance committee next week. Running for up to four years, it would be worth up to £1.1m. Members are being urged to approve the start of a tendering exercise in collaboration with Aberdeenshire. The report says that while the current provider has maintained its prices since 2013, market forces including the declining pound against the Euro, bad weather in Europe and an increased appetites for fruit and vegetables have all contributed to price rises for crops which have to be imported. It warns that if budget funding is not enough to meet increasing costs, the amount of fruit and vegetables offered in school menus and other catering services will need to be reduced. A report last month said eating 10 portions of fruit and vegetables a day may give a longer life. The study, by Imperial College London, calculated such eating habits could prevent 7.8 million premature deaths each year.

The relegated Premier League club officially announced his appointment on Friday, confirming the news that BBC Sport first broke on Thursday. Di Matteo succeeds Frenchman Remi Garde, who was sacked in March. The 46-year-old Italian, who won the Champions League and FA Cup with Chelsea in 2012, has also managed West Brom, Schalke and MK Dons. "I'm looking forward to the challenge of taking Aston Villa back to its rightful place," said Di Matteo. Villa's statement did not mention former Reading and West Brom boss Steve Clarke, who is expected to be Di Matteo's assistant. The pair have never worked together in management but were Chelsea team-mates for two years in the 1990s. Di Matteo has not managed at Championship level since 2009-10, when he guided West Brom to the top flight. Villa were also linked with ex-Manchester United boss David Moyes and new Derby County manager Nigel Pearson, but Di Matteo was always first choice. Dr Tony Xia, the Chinese businessman whose takeover of Villa is awaiting Football League and Premier League approval, has already promised extensive funds for player recruitment this summer.

The 27-year-old footballer was found dead at home on Sunday, a day after he led his side in a 4-0 League of Ireland win over Drogheda United. The cause of death is not yet known but a post-mortem has been carried out. His funeral was held in Londonderry's St Columba's Church hours before it hosts Martin McGuinness' funeral. Irish President Michael D Higgins is attending both services. Mourners began arriving at Long Tower Church about an hour before Ryan McBride's funeral. The feeling among those at the church remained one of shock at the sudden death of Derry City's 27-year-old captain. "It's been an awful week for the city," one said, reflecting not just the death of Ryan McBride, but also former deputy first minister Martin McGuinness. Before the service, members of the club's youth squads and women's team lined the entrance to the church, with the club's traditional colours of red, white and black on full display. Teammates walked alongside the hearse as it approached on the short journey from the city's Brandywell area. Flowers within the coffin spelled out the word "captain" and depicted McBride's jersey - number five. The player was buried in the city cemetery. During the service, an emotional Kenny Shiels - the manager of Derry City - read out a poem in tribute to his captain on behalf of the players and staff at the club. McBride's death is the latest tragedy to befall the club following the death of striker Mark Farren and the Buncrana pier tragedy, which claimed the lives of family members of winger Josh Daniels a year ago. "He epitomised everything about our club and our city," said Derry City chief executive Sean Barrett. "Of the words that have been thrown around probably my favourite one is 'warrior'. Derry City manager Kenny Shiels said the death was "hard for everybody to take" and that he was "the perfect example to any young player coming through". Since his debut in 2011, McBride had not only become a mainstay of the club's defence, but a fans' favourite. He made more than 170 appearances, with more than 50 as captain after he took over the role permanently two years ago. A self-professed quiet man off the pitch, McBride said it was a "different story" on it. "I switch on and then I'm in game mode," he said. Republic of Ireland footballer James McClean, a former team mate of McBride at Derry, said he was "a warrior that literally would throw his body on the line when he pulled on that Derry City jersey, a club that meant so much to him".

"It looks [bad], it looks a thigh strain," said Wenger. "The Christmas period is certainly over for him. "I don't know how long it will be, we have to see tomorrow morning." Arsenal midfielder Aaron Ramsey has scored 13 goals this season - six more than he managed in his five previous for Arsenal combined Ramsey has been one of Arsenal's stand-out performers this season, with 13 goals in 27 appearances in all competitions. The Gunners had fallen behind to a Carlton Cole strike when Ramsey - on the day he turned 23 - pulled up clutching his left leg. His removal saw Lukas Podolski introduced for his first appearance since suffering a hamstring injury on 27 August. Arsenal equalised through Theo Walcott before Podolski crossed for Walcott to head his second and the German then lashed in a third himself. "We had two real wingers from that moment on and he [Podolski] made a huge difference," said Wenger. "We had good width in the game and that created many problems for West Ham. He has been out for four months, not played one game. "He will get slowly back to competitiveness and has shown he can have a huge impact. He can score and make goals, provide assists."

But they never made a considerable impact and Zune hardware was discontinued in 2011. On Sunday, the Zune music download and streaming service was quietly retired. Any remaining Zune players will still work as an MP3 player, but will no longer be able to stream online music. Microsoft said the last remaining Zune subscribers would be switched over to its Groove music platform.

The man was trying to stop the lorry from crashing when he fell under the wheels at Derriford Hospital in Plymouth, police told BBC News. Emergency services were called at about 07:15 BST to reports of an incident involving the lorry. No other vehicles were involved. The driver - believed to be a 57-year-old - was pronounced dead at the scene. The vehicle travelled a short distance before coming to a stop, Devon and Cornwall Police said. Sgt Rob Kelland said: "At this stage it would appear that a driver was hitching his trailer on about 100 metres further up the hill. While he was doing that it would appear the lorry starting rolling away. "Witnesses are saying that he tried running after the lorry and tried to save it but unfortunately fell and was run over by his own lorry. "He was taken into A&E where he was pronounced deceased. "Subsequently, the family has arrived at the hospital and are being cared for by our family liaison officer." The emergency services remain at the scene and the Health and Safety Executive has been informed. The Plymouth Hospitals NHS Trust, which runs the hospital, said it was working with police to support investigations. Recycling firm Viridor, which employed the man, said: "Our deepest sympathies are with the driver's family, friends and colleagues. "The company is working closely with the authorities and a full investigation is under way."

Stokes, 25, was injured while bowling in England's 330-run series-levelling win at Old Trafford in the second Test. The all-rounder was replaced by Steven Finn for the third Test at Edgbaston, which started on Wednesday. Stokes is hoping to be fit for the one-day series against Pakistan, which begins on 24 August. He told BBC Test Match Special: "There was a possibility of being fit for the last Test but rather than risk more damage we decided to take it easy. "I came back from South Africa and the first Test match back I did my knee. Now I've done my calf. It's been frustrating but I haven't written my summer off yet." Stokes scored 34 in the first innings of the second Test against Pakistan at Old Trafford and had match figures of 2-60 before leaving the field injured on day four. This is Stokes' third notable injury in the past nine months. He damaged his shoulder in the third Test against Pakistan last October, and consequently missed the four-match one-day series and three Twenty20. He then injured his knee in the first Test against Sri Lanka in May, which resulted in a month on the sidelines. Stokes made his competitive return in the T20 Blast for Durham on 24 June and played five T20s and two first-class games, but was left out of England's squad for the first Test against Pakistan, which the visitors won by 75 runs.

Swansea-born Middlesex and ex-Glamorgan bowler James Harris remembers his friend Tom Maynard one year on from his death. Tom died on 18 June last year. It was a tragic event and it has been well documented what happened, but all the stuff that came out in the press is not the Tom I knew. I will always remember Tom as a fantastic guy who I got on with very well and somebody I really enjoyed playing cricket with. He was incredibly talented and was destined for great things. The anniversary of his death brought back some pretty tough memories of how I felt when it all happened. But the Tom Maynard Trust has been set up and is doing some fantastic things in his memory, as are people from Millfield School who are raising funds to send a child to the school sometime in the future. What is being done in Tom's memory represents the guy I know, and how I choose to remember him. Tom left Glamorgan for Surrey and always told me much he was enjoying his time in London. A move to London had always appealed to me because I'd always wanted to live in this part of the world, but only if the cricketing options were the right ones. The first few weeks after I moved to Middlesex were a frustration due to a niggling hamstring injury which I picked up and was probably the result of my own over-eagerness and wanting to prove that they had made a good investment by signing me. I was also trying to prove to myself that I deserved to be with them. I probably came back from that injury too soon, forced things and the problem lingered longer than it should have done. It should have been a 10-day thing but ended up being a three-week injury. That injury cost me a place with the England Lions and that was disappointing, but I wasn't the guy with any kind of form and hadn't played any kind of really good cricket when the squad was announced. There's no complaints about that from me and these things happen, but the drive and determination to play international cricket is still there and has never been bigger. I have made no bones about the fact that I want to play cricket for England and that is what I am aiming for and working hard for every day. It's all about chipping away in the nets and working hard in the gym and making sure I improve every day and to push my way up the ladder to the forefront of the selectors' minds. So I just have to keep knocking on the door and make sure I am the one who batters it down the next time they need a player. My former Lions team-mate Joe Root is a prime example of how things can change quickly and proves what can be achieved with hard work. Joe and I have been on a couple of tours together and his emergence at international level just spurs you on and makes you realise how close you are to an England call-up. A couple of good performances, here and there, could see you in the team. It also shows the value of the Lions team in the England set-up and that there is real pathway to international honours and that playing for England is in touching distance. That is something I am striving for now and for the next decade. Getting one cap is the aim and then seeing how many more I can get after that to fill the cupboard at home. While most people have probably been watching the Champions Trophy, I have been knuckling down with Middlesex and the last few weeks have been very good for me, even if the body has taken a bit of a pounding. I will really have to take care of myself over the next few weeks, just because their is a real upward spike in the workload on the body, with back-to-back championship games and also the move into the one-day game and Twenty20 cricket. We are battered and bruised, like most teams are at this time of the season, because there is so much cricket to play in such a short space of time. It is difficult changing from one format to another because you need a different skill-set for one form of cricket to another. Batsmen do come at you so much harder in Twenty20 cricket, so you need much more trickery but to be much more disciplined in your approach. The demands can be tough. We will play a Twenty20 game, then the following morning we will play a four-day championship game and then have another Twenty20 game straight after that. It really calls for guys to be mentally switched on and to be able to adapt quickly to the unique demands of each format of the game and have the ability to switch from one form of cricket to another. James Harris was talking to BBC Sport's Simon Roberts

Ministers are drawing up plans to convert the first jails to be smoke-free next year. PGA president Andrea Albutt "cautiously" welcomed the move but said it must be done in a "safe and staged" way as 80% of prisoners smoked. The Ministry of Justice said safety and security remained its "top" priorities. The government intends to ban smoking in all 136 prisons in England and Wales to reduce health risks - it is currently allowed only in prison cells and exercise yards. The move follows a series of legal challenges by prison officers and inmates who have complained about the effects of passive smoking. Mrs Albutt, who has governed four prisons, most recently Bristol, is heading a team that will be implementing the changes. The privately run Parc Prison, in south Wales, is expected to go smoke-free next year, and publicly-run jails in Wales and south-west England are likely to follow. Speaking on behalf of the Prison Governors Association, Mrs Albutt said the organisation agreed with the ban but said it had to be done in a managed and gradual way to avoid unrest, as about 80% of prisoners were smokers. Stopping them smoking could result in "stability issues", she told BBC News, in her first interview since becoming the organisation's president on an interim basis. She added that banning tobacco would create "potential problems" because it risked turning it into an illicit item to be smuggled in and traded by prisoners as "currency". Joe Simpson, assistant general secretary for the Prison Officers Association, compared the effects of passive smoking on prison officers with the risks posed to bar workers before smoking in pubs was banned. "All we are asking is for something that will help protect our members," he said. A Ministry of Justice spokesman said: "We are continuing to consider how to reduce the prevalence of smoking across the prison estate but the safety and security of prisons will always be our top priority." Razor Smith, who served three decades in prison for a spate of armed robberies, said: I served time in a juvenile prison in the 70s where there was no smoking and I can tell you... there was a great black market in tobacco goods. There's a black market in anything, in any banned goods. Whether you like it or not, tobacco is a way of dealing with stress and a lot of prisoners smoke. If you were to take it away from them, after they've had it for so many years, it becomes like a war of attrition with the prison system and they then see the prison system as taking something away that is legitimate, that you're allowed to do outside - and obviously there will be violence. They tried it in Australia a couple of weeks ago I think and there was an immediate riot. Scotland is also considering tighter restrictions on smoking in jails. The Scottish Prison Service said it aimed to have plans in place by December 2015 on how indoor smoke-free prison facilities would be delivered. But the Northern Ireland Department of Justice said it had no plans to change the current rules, under which smoking is permitted in prison cells and certain open spaces. Mrs Albutt, the first woman to lead the Prison Governors Association since it was founded 28 years ago, said the current priority of governors was to address the problems caused by new psychoactive substances (NPS), sometimes referred to as "legal highs" - synthetic drugs that mimic the effects of cannabis, ecstasy and cocaine. "The problem is... an epidemic across the prison estate. As such it needs to be tackled strategically," she said, adding that many offenders would not be able to engage in education and training until prisons were clear of the "mind-altering" drugs. The Ministry of Justice acknowledged the "huge challenge" posed by NPS and agreed it had to be tackled before preparing offenders to lead better lives. The move has prompted debate on both sides of the argument:

The club will have to leave their Stamford Bridge home for up to three years during the construction of a new £500m 60,000-seat stadium. Twickenham was an option being considered by the club but a spokesperson for the Rugby Football Union (RFU) said it would not happen. Chelsea have declined to comment. Wembley Stadium is thought to be another possible venue being considered by the club. But Tottenham Hotspur have been given the option to temporarily relocate to the national stadium for the 2017-18 season. Harrow East MP Bob Blackman has also raised concerns about the "potential abuse" of the "national treasure" if either club turns Wembley into their temporary home. Chelsea could stay at Stamford Bridge while redevelopment work takes place but this is thought to be the most expensive option. The club have been granted permission to demolish their current ground and replace it with one designed by architects Herzog and de Meuron. London Mayor Sadiq Khan will still have the final say on whether the development goes ahead.

Desmond Bartley, 21, was charged with the unlawful killing of Tommy Main at a birthday celebration in June last year. The court heard Mr Main, 23, had collapsed and died during a "macho" game of "blow for blow" in which the two men exchanged punches. Mr Bartley denied the charge, saying they had been "playing" and was found not guilty at Inner London Crown Court. He explained they took turns to hit each other but each had no intention of seriously hurting the other man. The court heard the men, who had known each other for 10 years, had both taken cocaine. They were among 30 adults, teenagers and children attending a 16th birthday party at a house in Erith, south-east London. Mr Bartley said that after being punched twice by Mr Main, he took his turn and struck him in the chest. He told the jury: "Basically he (Mr Main) said 'ah, I felt that', looked at me, laughed and then collapsed." Mr Bartley said he thought Mr Main had just lost his breath until he started turning blue and people began trying to resuscitate him. The formal cause of death was given as cardiac arrest following blunt chest impact and the presence of cocaine and alcohol. Mr Bartley told police he had "hardly touched him", adding in court: "The punch that I threw, I never thought it would do something like that, him collapsing."

An agreement will be needed on how divorces, commercial disputes and consumer claims that span multiple countries are handled. Currently EU regulations specify how the appropriate court is chosen. Lawyers have warned that clarity will be needed once the UK has left the organisation in March 2019. In the latest in a series of papers setting out its Brexit negotiating plans, the government will say disputes need to be resolved "in a clear and sensible way", saying it is determined to agree new arrangements. This will be crucial for both UK and EU citizens and businesses that buy and sell across borders, it says. The "future partnership paper on civil judicial cooperation" follows publications on the customs union, the Irish border and the trading of goods after Brexit. A paper on the key issue of the role of the European Court of Justice is expected on Wednesday. The publications are part of the UK government's attempts to persuade the EU to move the Brexit talks on to the next phase, which will include trade negotiations. Brussels says this cannot happen until sufficient progress has been made on citizens' rights, the UK's "divorce bill" and the Northern Ireland border. Labour accused the government of publishing "bland, non-committal papers as a smokescreen to mask their failure to make any meaningful progress" on the initial negotiations. The EU has already published its own position paper on judicial co-operation. Tuesday's paper from the UK side will promise to "build on the existing foundation of co-operation and respect for the rule of law" with the EU. It will propose a replacement for the UK's membership of the EU's judicial co-operation system, which sets out how cross-border disputes are handled. The system decides which country's legal system takes the lead, and means member states respect each other's judgements. Lawyers and MPs have warned that the UK's status as a "global legal centre" for commercial contracts could come under threat from rival countries unless clear arrangements are put in place for after Brexit. Pro-EU campaign group Open Britain said the government had made an "appalling error" by ruling out a role for the European Court of Justice in regulating disputes.

Nick Clegg's battlebus was hard to miss this afternoon when it arrived - in the middle of the road, naturally - at a Panasonic factory in Cardiff. The deputy prime minister was given a factory tour where he met some apprentices, answered questions from workers - and made a pancake. The end product looked good enough to eat although Mr Clegg did look rather uncomfortable in the kitchen - even with James Landale nowhere in sight. The Lib Dems had chosen Panasonic as an example of a company that has a good record on apprentices and in the European Union. Speaking to workers, he acknowledged that his "plucky, brave" (his words)decision to go into coalition had hit the Lib Dems in the polls. When I asked him about his own poll ratings - as flat as a pancake - he told me that he wasn't a pollster, just a politician campaigning for his own values. Welsh Lib Dem leader Kirsty Williams said people had thought Nick Clegg's Lib Dems didn't have the mettle or the guts to take tough decisions but had preferred to snipe from the sidelines. She'll be hoping they're not returned to the sidelines after May 7.

It gave no reasons for the dismissal, but stressed on the importance of "professional conduct". Meanwhile, US media report that Mr Horowitz's departure comes amid claims of sexual harassment at Fox Sports. Mr Horowitz's lawyer said "the way Jamie has been treated by Fox is appalling" and that the executive had worked "in an exemplary fashion". In the memo to sent to employees, Fox Sports President Eric Shanks wrote that everyone should "adhere to professional conduct at all times". Mr Horowitz's lawyer Patricia Glaser said in response to his dismissal: "At no point in his tenure was there any mention by his superiors or human resources of any misconduct, nor an inability to adhere to professional conduct. "Jamie was hired by Fox to do a job, the job that until today he has performed in an exemplary fashion. Any slanderous accusations to the contrary will be vigorously defended." However, Fox Sport's lawyer Daniel Petrocelli said that "Mr Horowitz's termination was fully warranted and his lawyer's accusations are ill-informed and misguided". Fox Sports is part of 21st Century Fox, which is owned by Rupert Murdoch. The Los Angeles Times and the New York Times reported that about a week ago Fox began an investigation into claims of sexual harassment at its sports division. The newspapers quoted a person briefed on the matter. Fox has not publicly commented on the media reports, which could not be independently verified. In April, prime-time presenter Bill O'Reilly was dropped from Fox News over sexual harassment claims. He described the claims as "completely unfounded". Last July, Roger Ailes, a long-time boss of Fox News, resigned after a number of female employees had accused him of sexual harassment. At the time he said he was resigning because he had become a "distraction". Mr Ailes died in May.

"We are concerned that some centres have given extra time to candidates who are not disabled," it says. Ofqual figures show more than 237,000 cases this summer where pupils had special "access arrangements". This is usually given for a disability or medical condition, and can allow pupils 25% more time to do papers. Figures from Ofqual also show a sharp increase in the number of exam centres facing written warnings or other penalties for malpractice - up from 56 last year to 130 for summer 2012. Pupils who have some kind of special need - or face a particular disruption at the time of an exam - can be allowed extra help or have this taken into consideration by exam boards. But the exam regulator, publishing its figures for this summer's exams in England, Wales and Northern Ireland, has voiced concern at the scale of requests - and wants exam boards to review how such help is allowed. "We are concerned that in some cases extra time is being given to candidates to help them improve their grades rather than to address a significant disadvantage," says Ofqual's report. The requests from schools for "access arrangements" have risen by 8% in two years. The most common access arrangement request - for an extra 25% time - increased by 12% over two years. There were also more than 11,000 cases of pupils being allowed bilingual dictionaries and an extra 25% of exam time. An even higher number of exam papers were subject to "special considerations", where marking might be adjusted in recognition of exceptional circumstances, such as bereavement or temporary illness. There were more than 341,000 approvals for such special considerations, lower than the previous year. These figures were for exam papers - as a single individual pupil might claim for special consideration across all their exams. None the less, it meant that about one in 50 exam papers had such special considerations approved. The maximum adjustment in the marking is allowed for pupils who have suffered the death of a close family member - but a lower and more common allowance is for those with a "minor illness on the day of the exam". There were also figures on cheating. Malpractice by pupils has fallen for the fourth successive year - with 2,550 penalties issued this summer, representing 0.02% of the total exam scripts. The most typical way of cheating was bringing in a mobile phone or another electronic device, although this problem, in terms of penalties awarded, seems to have been reducing in recent years. Exam malpractice by school staff has fallen to its lowest figure over the past five years - with 60 cases, mostly for "inappropriate assistance" to pupils. But there has been a big increase in the number of schools and exam centres where penalties have been imposed - in circumstances where it has been the management of the exam process that has failed, rather than the actions of an individual member of staff. This increase has involved concerns about question papers being opened early and a lack of appropriate invigilation, with a written warning the most common consequence. But the figures show a wide variation between exam boards - with some imposing no penalties at all, while Edexcel has accounted for more than three-quarters of all this year's penalties. A spokeswoman for Pearson, parent company of Edexcel, said the increase followed a change in the warning procedures. "In 2012 we introduced a more rigorous warning process so that we can gain far more accurate data across centres on all incidents, both minor and major. This gives us a more complete picture and helps with our risk assessment process."

Some £1.4m is being paid directly to customers who were overcharged on exit fees. They will receive an average rebate of £14.83 each. The other £300,000 will be paid into a hardship fund run by charity Age UK. E.On made errors during a 30-day window that allows customers to switch supplier before a price rise. During that time, industry rules mean customers on fixed-term deals should not incur an exit fee if they signal their intention to switch supplier. If they make this intention clear, they should also avoid any higher prices if the switch happens after the price rise comes into effect. Regulator Ofgem said that the compensation related to four price rises that occurred between 2008 and 2011. E.On is the only one of the big six energy companies not to have announced a price rise for residential customers so far this autumn. Ofgem said that E.On brought the error to its attention in November and had agreed to compensate customers rather than face an investigation and a potential fine. Customers who were overcharged have been identified by E.On, the regulator said, and should receive a cheque with their rebate by the end of January. They do not need to contact the energy company. An Ofgem spokesman said that if it emerged that not all former customers could be sent rebates, their refunds would be added to the hardship fund instead. The payment includes an 8% interest payment on the amount that they were incorrectly charged. "Ofgem has put in place protections for consumers so they can get a fair warning if their supplier puts up prices and time to shop around for a better deal," said Sarah Harrison, of Ofgem. "E.On has accepted it failed to meet these protections. This announcement that E.On will compensate customers is a positive step by the company to put right their mistakes and is welcome." E.On has apologised and said that the error would not happen again. "We are very sorry to have let down some of our former customers and have made clear that we will refund the money plus interest. Our systems are being updated," said David Bird, customer service director at E.On UK. "We have been open in our failure with the energy regulator, Ofgem, and are pleased to have agreed with them how we can put this right and have identified all customers who are due to receive payment from us in January." Audrey Gallacher, director of energy at watchdog Consumer Focus, said: "This agreement sends a welcome message to the energy industry that not sticking to the rules has repercussions. "It is positive that E.On worked with the regulator to get this money back to customers who lost out, rather than paying a fine which would go back to the Treasury. "We want to see new powers for Ofgem to require fines to be paid back to energy customers brought into force as soon as possible, to ensure people can be directly compensated if they lose out when things go wrong."

Dobbel Champions League-vinneren Gareth Bale oppfordrer lagkameratene til å "gjøre Wales stolt" på Euro 2016

Only a handful of more that 60 stations marked to shut public counters or cut hours have been given a reprieve. The controversial plans were put to consultation in October. The public can still request a meeting with an officer on the 101 non-emergency number. Confirmation of the move comes a week after approval to cut the number of police and fire control rooms. The opening times of public counters at police stations across Scotland now fall into five categories and the list of affected stations remains largely the same as one proposed in the original consultation. Assistant Chief Constable Wayne Mawson said: "Local policing remains the bedrock of the new service. "The benefits of a single service are already being felt right across the country - with national specialist resource now meaning our local community team resource is further strengthened and supported. "We have listened to all the views put forward and made changes to reflect this but an effective, modern policing service must evolve to reflect the communities we serve." As a result of the closures members of the public will still be able to meet with police officers at stations with no public counter provision but will have to call 101 first. The amendments to the orignal proposals are: The reforms have been widely criticised by all of the main opposition political parties in Scotland. Scottish Labour's Graeme Pearson said: "This announcement will be a bitter blow for the 61 communities which will now no longer have easy, face-to-face contact with their local police officers. "I'm pleased that through our campaigning and the campaigning of many others, we've managed to save at least some from total closure." The Scottish Liberal Democrats echoed Labour's concerns and said the news confirmed the party's "worst fears". Lib Dem leader Willie Rennie said: "It is deeply disappointing that around 60 frontline police stations across Scotland are to close their doors to the public. "In the space of less than one year [Justice Secretary] Kenny MacAskill has taken a wrecking ball to local justice." Scottish Conservative chief whip John Lamont branded the consultation process a "PR exercise" to prepare the public for the level of the cuts. "As everyone suspected, the consultation exercise was merely Police Scotland going through the motions," he said. "No matter what anyone said, these service counters were closing." A Scottish government spokesman said: "The review of public counters was undertaken by Police Scotland which was established following wide Scottish Parliament support for the new single service. "After listening and taking account of public opinion, consultation responses and staff, police are increasing services at Stromness, Banchory, Dumbarton, South Queensferry and Linlithgow. "Under the review, 71% of counters will remain open to the public with some increasing their hours."

Cardiff should have been ahead at half-time but Frederic Gounongbe missed an open goal and Tomasz Kusczak saved brilliantly from Peter Whittingham. After the break it was Bluebirds goalkeeper David Marshall's turn to shine with outstanding saves from Diego Fabbrini and Jack Storer. When a goalkeeper was beaten, Cardiff's Lex Immers' shot crashed off the bar. New Cardiff head coach Paul Trollope's side - including defender Fabio, who is being linked with Middlesbrough - started with a purpose. And had it not been for former Manchester United player Kuszczak's brilliance and some sloppy finishing Cardiff would have been out of sight at the interval. With takeover rumours dominating the build-up to the game, it took Gary Rowett's Blues 50 minutes to hit their stride. When they did, Scotland international Marshall was equal to the task, although substitute Storer should have scored. The pace slowed in the energy-sapping heat, and Immers' late effort almost stole all the points for Cardiff. Birmingham City manager Gary Rowett told BBC WM: Media playback is not supported on this device "It was probably the right result on the overall reflection of the game. I don't think we deserved to win but we didn't deserve to lose. "To keep a clean sheet was a real positive and some strong displays from Ryan Shotton and Tomasz Kuszczak played leading roles. "I admit that I am trying to bring in two players that will give us a bit more quality and win us games in the final third. We certainly need to improve in that area." Cardiff City boss Paul Trollope: "There is an influence from the Euros. Obviously a few teams used it in the Euros like the team I worked with. A lot of teams have used this system and got out of this division. "With the players I have at my disposal at the moment I think it is a good way for us to go." "We came with positive intentions to win the game but were frustrated we didn't win. We controlled good spells which was pleasing. We want to be progressive and dynamic but it is what happens in the box. "The signs are good and we defended when we were put under pressure. It is, however, work in progress.

Bowes Museum was awarded a Catalyst Endowments programme grant four years' ago with the proviso it matched the money pound-for-pound. With the deadline this month, there have been more than 800 individual donors from as far afield as Australia, as well as contributions from visitors. The museum said it was extremely pleased to have raised the money within the allotted timeframe. The £2m total will be spent on long-term curatorial, conservation and educational activities, as well as a programme of exhibitions. The Catalyst Endowments programme is a joint enterprise between the Department for Culture, Media and Sport, the Heritage Lottery Fund, and Arts Council England.

The former London mayor was hauled before a disciplinary panel after claiming the Nazi leader supported Zionism in the 1930s. He could be expelled if Labour bosses decide his comments were "grossly detrimental" to the party. On Tuesday morning he blamed the Jewish Chronicle and Labour MPs for misreporting his comments. And he said that if he was expelled from Labour he would take legal action to fight the decision. Mr Livingstone has been suspended from the Labour Party since the row erupted in April 2016, when he was defending MP Naz Shah over claims she had made anti-Semitic social media posts. The comment that sparked the row, was made to BBC London. The former mayor said: "When Hitler won his election in 1932, his policy then was that Jews should be moved to Israel. He was supporting Zionism before he went mad and ended up killing six million Jews." What's the difference between anti-Semitism and anti-Zionism? Speaking on BBC Radio 4's Today programme on Tuesday morning, he said it was a "lie" to say he had said Hitler was a Zionist, saying this had been the cause of offence. He has repeatedly defended his version of events, saying there had been "real collaboration" between Nazis and Zionists before World War Two. But Jeremy Newmark, of the Jewish Labour Movement, said Mr Livingstone's "seemingly consistent need to calibrate his language to cause maximum hurt and pain to Jewish people and Holocaust survivors in this country has created a situation where there can no longer be a place for him inside our party". Mr Newmark said his organisation would raise the matter at Labour's annual conference in September if Mr Livingstone was allowed to stay in the party.

The teenager, from Rhondda Cynon Taff, has been charged with obtaining a knife and hammer and preparing a suicide note for an attack on 30 June. He has also been charged with posting an image and comment on Instagram to encourage others to commit acts of terror. He appeared at Westminster Magistrates' Court, sitting as a youth court. Wearing a dark jumper and light grey trousers, he stood to confirm his name, address and date of birth. He folded his arms and at one point appeared to wipe his eye. The teenager was arrested on 30 June by officers from Wales Extremism Counter Terrorism Unit (WECTU) working jointly with West Midlands Counter Terrorism Unit and MI5. Senior district judge Emma Arbuthnot, the chief magistrate, remanded him to youth detention accommodation. He will appear at the Old Bailey on 20 July.

The fish were discovered dead on Tuesday near Ballyclare. The cause of their deaths is not yet known. The Northern Ireland Environment Agency (NIEA) was notified and has begun an investigation. Jim Gregg, of the Ballynure Angling Club, said the fish kill was "devastating" and had occurred at the ideal spawning time. "The anglers were made aware of this at approximately 10 o'clock this morning," he told the BBC. "We've removed approximately 30 to 40 fish that we have found in the shallows, lying dead. "The water levels are quite significantly high, to suggest that there are an awful lot more fish dead that we can't see and that have possibly been washed further downstream." The NIEA is an government agency within Northern Ireland's Department of Environment (DoE). In a statement, a DoE spokesperson said the incident was reported to the agency via its water pollution hotline at 11:15 GMT on Wednesday. "A NIEA water quality inspector was immediately tasked to the area to investigate the report and determine the environmental impact. The NIEA investigation has not yet identified any immediately obvious source or symptoms of pollution," the statement added. "Investigations are on-going to determine whether there has been any polluting discharge to the watercourse, including collected samples from potential sources of pollution in the area." Staff from the Department for Culture Arts and Leisure (DCAL)'s Inland Fisheries Group were also called to the site to assess the number of fish affected. Approximately 50 dead fish have been recovered so far, but the DoE warned the number could rise. In 2011, hundreds of fish were found dead in the Six Mile Water river.

Conservative MP for Telford, Lucy Allan, posted an email ending with the words "unless you die" on Facebook. The email's author denied writing the final line. Mrs Allan admitted adding it - but said it came from another email sent to her that day. The BBC is yet to see the email, which Mrs Allan said police were investigating. Mrs Allan said she shared the email from Adam Watling, son of Telford & Wrekin Labour councillor Paul Watling, in a bid to stop normalising online abuse. But Adam, writing under the alias Rusty Shackleford, said he had not written "unless you die". He told the BBC: "Wherever the 'unless you die' line came from, it was absolutely not from any of my correspondence to Lucy. I am a peaceful person and would never make a threat of that nature." Mrs Allan responded to allegations that she had doctored the email by saying. "I posted actual comments made to me on the same day, although not in the same email. Comments were added to the post as they came in. I posted them to show examples of the type of unacceptable online abuse that comes in most days and that most people tolerate silently. "The comments were not posted to discredit any individual. "Rusty" could have been anyone, or a wholly fictional person. he chose to identify himself and came forward with a surname. At that point I took the post down." She said there had now been a campaign against her, and the police were investigating. The Facebook posts have since been deleted.

His defence came as new Office for Budget Responsibility figures predicted falling North Sea oil revenues. During FMQs at Holyrood, Scottish Labour's Deputy Leader Kezia Dugdale asked Mr Swinney what oil price was needed to balance the books under FFA. The SNP minister responded by saying FFA would allow economic growth. Mr Swinney, who was standing in for First Minister Nicola Sturgeon until she returns from a four-day visit to the US, added: "Our GDP per head used to be sixth in the UK, now it is now third only behind London and the South East. "Our productivity has increased from 96% of UK levels in 1999 to being in line with UK levels in 2012. "The moral of the story is where we can exercise distinctive economic policies in Scotland, we can transform the economic performance of this country, and for me that is what fiscal autonomy is all about." To find out more read Douglas Fraser's FFA explainer written during the election campaign. Ms Dugdale's line of questioning focused on research her party had done on the price of oil under FFA. She said the country would need a global oil price of $200 (£129) to "balance Scotland's books". The price stood at about $65 on Thursday afternoon. Ms Dugdale said: "So disastrous is the SNP's policy, that it is predicated on an oil price that has never been reached before." Analysis by the Institute for Fiscal Studies (IFS) said that in 2015/16 Scotland would have a shortfall or "fiscal gap" of £7.6bn. The independent research body explained that if Scotland controlled tax and spend through FFA it would lose cash transfers from the rest of the UK, leaving it with the choice of tax increases or spending cuts. Earlier, the SNP - which won 56 out of Scotland's 59 seats at the election - had made public that it would submit an amendment to the Scotland Bill calling for the Scottish Parliament to be able to introduce full fiscal autonomy. The party's Westminster leader Angus Robertson said the current proposals for more devolved powers, which are based on the Smith Commission recommendations, "do not go far enough". He added: "We are also seeking to amend the Scotland Bill to give the Scottish Parliament the ability to introduce full fiscal autonomy." As it stands, the Bill's new powers for Holyrood include; However, full fiscal autonomy would go further and give the Edinburgh parliament the responsibility for all areas of tax and spending except defence and foreign affairs. However, responding to the SNP's plan to submit its FFA amendment, Scotland would probably face tax increases or spending cuts under plans for full fiscal autonomy advanced by the SNP. That's according to the Institute for Fiscal Studies. The IFS says that if Scotland controlled its own tax and spending it would lose cash transfers from the rest of the UK. Autonomy could allow Scotland to pursue better policies which would generate growth. But the institute notes that "the consequences of the short run arithmetic are not easily avoided." After the Conservative's won the UK election with an overall majority, Prime Minister David Cameron said he did not support full fiscal autonomy for Scotland, stating that it would mean £7bn of cuts or extra tax-raising. Following a meeting Ms Sturgeon in mid-May, Mr Cameron said: "Let's make sure Smith is implemented in full. I'm going to keep the commitment I made to the people of Scotland. Let's get that done first because it does create a really strong Scottish Parliament. "Of course, if people want to make future proposals I'll look at them."

Matthew Miller was arrested in April, shortly after arriving as a tourist. The US accuses North Korea of using Mr Miller and two other detained Americans as pawns in a diplomatic game. The North Korean authorities have not specified the charges against Mr Miller, but they claim he tore up his visa and demanded asylum. During the trial, prosecutors said Mr Miller admitted having a "wild ambition" to spend time in a North Korean prison so he could find out about the country's human rights situation, the Associated Press (AP) reports. Notes produced in court also suggested he had become a fugitive because he was involved with Wikileaks, the organisation that has leaked US state secrets. Our correspondent in Seoul, Steve Evans, says it is impossible to know how those notes were written - whether under duress or not - and it is not clear whether there is any truth to the allegations. After a 90-minute trial, the sentence was handed down and Mr Miller was handcuffed and led from the room, AP reports. The White House has described securing the release of Mr Miller and the two other American citizens detained in North Korea as a "top priority". In the past the US has been able to negotiate the release of American detainees. Notably two journalists who were held whilst filming a documentary in North Korea were granted a "special pardon" after former President Clinton travelled to the country. The US has offered several times to send Robert King, its special envoy for North Korean human rights issues, to Pyongyang to discuss the detainees, but these visits have been cancelled by North Korea. Mr Miller, 24, of Bakersfield in California, had been in custody since 10 April. Little information has been released about him, and the US State Department said this was partly because he had not signed a Privacy Act Waiver, which allows information about him to be released to the public. According to KCNA, Mr Miller tore up his tourist visa on arrival in the country and shouted that "he came to the DPRK [North Korea] after choosing it as a shelter." In a brief interview with CNN earlier this month, attended by North Korean officials, Mr Miller said: "I will say that I prepared to violate the law of the DPRK before coming here." He also said he deliberately committed his "crime", although he did not specify what he had done wrong. Accordingly, much mystery remains, our correspondent says. In a recent interview with Associated Press, all three American detainees appealed to the US government to send a high-ranking representative to negotiate about their freedom. State department official Daniel Russel told Reuters last week that the US found North Korean treatment of its citizens "objectionable and distressing". "This is the way that they play," he said. "They use human beings, and in this case Americans citizens, as pawns." Jeffrey Fowle came to North Korea as a tourist but was arrested in May for allegedly leaving a Bible in a public place. North Korea considers the distribution or spreading of Christian information as incendiary. Korean-American missionary Kenneth Bae, who was arrested in November 2012, is serving 15 years in a labour camp after being convicted of trying to overthrow North Korea's government.

The attackers drove a car into the station and set off explosives on Saturday morning, the local government said on its website. Three police suffered minor injuries but no civilians were hurt, it added. The Chinese authorities blame Muslim Uighurs from Xinjiang for an increasing number of attacks in the province. "On the morning of 21 June, a group of thugs drove a car into a police building in Yecheng County, Kashgar province and detonated explosives," the local government website said. "Police shot dead the 13 attackers," it reported. It provided no further details. Verifying reports from the Xinjiang region is difficult because access for journalists is restricted and the flow of information is tightly controlled. The authorities have tightened security in Xinjiang in recent months. On Monday, China executed 13 people in Xinjiang for what it called "terrorist attacks". The authorities also sentenced three men - believed to Uighurs - over a fatal car crash in Beijing last year. Five people were killed when a car ploughed into a crowd in Beijing's Tiananmen Square last October. Dozens of others were injured. Attacks blamed by Beijing on Uighur separatists include deadly bomb and knife attacks on railway stations in Urumqi in Xinjiang, and Kunming in south-west China. Uighur leaders deny that they are co-ordinating a terrorist campaign. Activists have accused Beijing of exaggerating the threat from Uighur separatists to justify a crackdown on the Uighurs' religious and cultural freedoms. Who are the Uighurs?

Hinckley has been without one since the MGM Canon, in Trinity Lane, closed in May 1993. Cineworld, which is in The Crescent development near Lancaster Road, is hosting invited guests for its gala nights before opening to the public. Hinckley & Bosworth Borough Council said the town had been calling for a movie theatre for years. Council leader Mike Hall explained the town could expect to see "gradual openings" of new businesses from now until March. "The one thing that people have consistently said, whenever we've looked at development of the town centre, is they want a cinema. "Thanks to Cineworld and the council, that's finally here," he said. The Crescent, which also includes a bus station, shops and restaurants, is expected to create about 500 jobs. Plans for the scheme were approved in 2011, but work did not begin until last year. Tim Arnold, owner of newly-opened micro pub Elbow Room, said: "We spent two years looking for premises and when this opportunity came up, we felt we couldn't miss it. "It's a fantastic location." However, experts believe more work must be done to regenerate the town. Philip Garton, principal lecturer in retailing at De Montfort University, said: "A lot of Hinckley was originally reliant on industry which is no longer there and it needs to find a new place for itself. "Not just this one, but other developments that will help Hinckley going forwards."

The concrete Northam Bridge, which carries the A3024 road as a dual carriageway, needed waterproof coating. The £1.2m works started in January and were expected to be completed in May, but the bridge has now reopened. Jacqui Rayment, from Southampton City Council, said delays caused by the works were "absolutely necessary". She added: "I'm sure drivers will welcome the news that we have been able to fully reopen Northam Bridge ahead of schedule. "The bridge is a critical element of Southampton's transport and road network, which is why it was so important that this work went ahead when it did to protect the structure and ensure its future. "Southampton and the wider regional economy is dependent on these key routes and we have avoided extensive future problems through these timely interventions." On the first morning of the roadworks, some motorists faced delays of up to an hour as lane closures were put in place. It's reopening was greeted with a sigh of relief on Twitter, with Mads tweeting: "Northam Bridge being reopened is a dream."

In an open letter to US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, 45 US lawmakers said Haiti needed a strong, representative government in the wake of January's disaster which made a million and a half homeless and, according to the Haitian government, left more than 200,000 dead. The letter said the decision of the electoral authorities, the Provisional Electoral Council, to exclude some of the most popular candidates from the 28 November poll, so potentially conferring decisions to a government perceived as illegitimate, was a "recipe for disaster". The US lawmakers say the exclusion of candidates, including those from Fanmi Lavalas, which they describe as "Haiti's largest political party", risks causing popular unrest. And they go as far as quoting former US President John Kennedy: "Those who make peaceful revolution impossible will make violent revolution inevitable." Fanmi Lavalas leaders, some of whom are loyal to the exiled former Haitian leader Jean-Bertrand Aristide, have been barred on technical grounds following a dispute between candidates. The popular Haitian hip hop singer Wyclef Jean was excluded from running in the presidential poll because he was said not to meet eligibility requirements. The lawmakers' letter to Mrs Clinton, issued last Thursday, says excluding candidates will undermine both the right of Haitians to vote and the resulting government's ability to govern. The current Haitian government led by President Rene Preval has rejected allegations that it is excluding popular candidates for political reasons. It said Fanmi Lavalas was split and some of its leaders unrepresentative of the party. And it said Wyclef Jean had spent too much of his time resident in the United States to be eligible for election. In Haiti's fluid political landscape some prominent members of the current government claim allegiance to Fanmi Lavalas. But many ordinary Haitian voters spontaneously say they support populists like Jean-Bertrand Aristide and Wyclef Jean, and they express deep scepticism about the current administration because it is not seen to have responded well to their needs after the earthquake. The letter to Mrs Clinton said allowing the elections to proceed with the exclusions in place would "come back to haunt the international community" because the government that is elected will have to make difficult decisions about post-earthquake reconstruction and spend large amounts of aid money. "Running transparently unfair, exclusive elections with the support of the international community, will leave many Haitians to conclude that they have no choice but to protest the elections and the consequent government through social disruption," the letter says. Finally, the letter concludes that the US government should not provide any funding to elections that do not meet "basic democratic requirements".

Tighter school budgets mean "you lose and lack in quality", said Andreas Schleicher, boss of the PISA global education rankings. His comments came amid growing concern among educationalists about school funding shortages in England. Ministers said it was "incorrect" to say they were making cuts. "If you take the same system and you take money out of it you lose and lack in quality. I think there's no question around it," Mr Schleicher, told the Times Educational Supplement (TES). In December, the National Audit Office warned that schools in England were facing real terms cuts. And head teachers have been warning about having to cut school hours, governors have threatened to refuse to sign off budgets and grammar school leaders have said they might have to start charging parents. Last week, heads were angered when it was revealed that £384m earmarked for converting schools into academies last year had been taken back by the Treasury. And a government plan to overhaul how school funding is allocated, which is intended to resolve long-standing anomalies in levels of funding, will also risk cuts in most schools, according to teachers' unions. Mr Schleicher, education director of the Organisation of Economic Co-operation and Development, which runs the PISA rankings, told the TES that in high performing education systems like China, parents and government prioritised spending on education children. "They invest in the future," he said. "The UK has already spent the money on consumption today, that's where the debt crisis came from. "It's a value choice of societies to make. Education really is an important choice; that is the future. "The school system today is your economy tomorrow, and that is something I worry about when governments have an attitude of. 'Oh well, let's cut some corners here'." The latest PISA ranking, published in December, showed the UK lagging behind, having made little progress since the previous set of results, published three years previously. The rankings, based on tests taken by 15-year-olds in more than 70 countries, showed the UK not only behind top performers such as Singapore and Finland but also trailing Vietnam, Poland and Estonia. England had the strongest results in the UK - but they were described at the time as "flat in a changing world". At the time, Mr Schleicher raised concerns that teacher shortages were "a major bottleneck" to raising standards. In response to his latest comments, a Department for Education spokesman said the government had protected core schools' funding "and it is now at a record level - more than £40bn this year". The spokesman said these figures meant it was "incorrect to say that we are taking money out of the system". "We recognise, however, that schools are facing cost pressures, which is why we will continue to provide advice and support to help them use their funding in cost effective ways, including improving the way they buy goods and services, so‎ they get the best possible value for their pupils."

The 30-year-old took a one-shot lead into the final day at Himmerland after rounds of 63, 67 and 68. He then shot a 73 to finish 13-under-par and beat Terry Pilkadaris, Kristoffer Broberg, Daniel Gaunt and Soren Kjeldsen into tied second place. Scotland's Paul Lawrie and Wales' Bradley Dredge both finished one shot further back on 10 under. Stockport-born Horsey led from wire-to-wire, with Thursday's round including a 28 that equalled the lowest nine holes on the Tour this season. Horsey shot three bogeys and one birdie in his last round, but it proved enough to hold off the challenge of Broberg. The Swede climbed 50 places on the leaderboard after firing nine birdies in his final round. It meant he carded a 62 on Sunday, but that left him two short of Horsey's 271 overall.

Alexander Blackman was freed 11 days ago after serving three years in prison for killing a Taliban insurgent. He said: "It's hard to explain how really good it is, just the freedom to do whatever you want, whenever you want." His wife Claire said having her husband back home was "wonderful". Blackman, 42, received a life sentence in 2013, but his murder conviction was reduced to manslaughter after a high-profile campaign led by his wife. He added: "You feel like going outside for five minutes, you can, you feel like going outside for the whole day, you can. It's a really good feeling." Mrs Blackman's work won a huge amount of public support and funding to pay for the legal battle to appeal the original conviction for murder and subsequent life sentence. She said: "It's really here, we really did it and I did often wonder if it would ever come but it took a long time to sink in, I didn't quite believe it but now he's home it's wonderful." The shooting took place after a British patrol base came under fire in 2011. Speaking of the moment he killed the Taliban fighter, Blackman said: "I still don't know exactly why I did it. "A moment of madness is the best description I can give, it's not exactly the proudest moment of my life when I look back on it. "I've spent a lot of time thinking about it and I haven't got a definitive answer." When asked if he would do the same, he said the circumstances were "unique" and unlikely to be replicated again. Mrs Blackman added: "It's not for me to judge, I have no concept of just how incredibly stressful it must have been out there. "I feel personally, fairly certain, that if he had a time machine and could go back and do things differently, he absolutely would but we don't have access to such things. "What he's done he's done and we've had the chance to move on and we're looking forward to doing that." Blackman added: "Hindsight is a wonderful thing and given what's especially happened to us in our life, if you could go back you would change things and perhaps do things different." Excerpts of the ex-marine's helmet camera were shown during his trial. He explained: "The trouble we found with that is that it's a five minute section of an incident that took well over an hour, and to be fair you can put quite a few different spins on what's said and, unless you were actually there, you don't know the full story. "Obviously, I told my version of events when I was at trial along with the other guys that were there. I'm content that what I [said] was my belief at the time, if other people have other views, they are entitled to do that."

The consultant, who does not wish to be named, stepped down following the revelation that an entire chapter of the final report had been removed. It follows the resignation of two patient representatives who claimed the report had been watered down. Health Secretary Shona Robison said no evidence would be hidden. Transvaginal mesh implants are medical devices used by surgeons to treat pelvic organ prolapse and incontinence in women, conditions that can commonly occur after childbirth. What's the issue with mesh implants? Over the past 20 years, more than 20,000 women in Scotland have had mesh or tape implants but some have suffered painful and debilitating complications. There are more than 400 women currently taking legal action against Scottish health boards and manufacturers as a result of mesh implant surgery. In 2014 former health secretary Alex Neil called for the suspension of such procedures, and an independent review group was set up to look at safety issues. An interim report published in October 2015 did not advocate a blanket ban on mesh implants but noted that some women do experience serious complications and it made suggestions for reducing the risks. The final report is expected shortly. Earlier this month, the BBC revealed that an expert member of the review group had written to its chairwoman, raising concerns about the final draft. The letter states that an entire chapter, which highlighted concerns about the use of mesh in some procedures and contained tables displaying the risks of treatment, had been taken out. Patients representatives Olive McIlroy and Elaine Holmes, who have both suffered complications as a result of such surgery, resigned from the review earlier this month, claiming that the final report now lacked integrity and independence. Responding to the latest resignation, Health Secretary Shona Robison said clinical experts sometimes disagreed on complex medical matters. She said: "I want to reassure the Scottish Mesh Survivors Group their views have been heard, and I want them to remain at the centre of the crucial work. "I have been clear that all evidence must be made publically available alongside the report once published. The chair of the Review Group has stressed to me the evidence has been fully considered by the review and none has been hidden. "This is a complex, technical area and on occasions professionals will disagree. I am aware of the resignation of a clinical member from the group and, while this is unfortunate, their views and contribution to the review is much-appreciated and have proven valuable." Ms Robision is due to meet Olive McIlroy and Elaine Holmes later this week to discuss their concerns. In December, the BBC revealed that hundreds of mesh implant operations had been performed in Scotland despite ministers recommending their suspension. Figures obtained by the BBC revealed that 404 women had received mesh and tape implants since the health secretary called for the suspension in June 2014.

Anthony Munkley, known as Charlie, 53, and Lee Michael Roberts, 33, deny the murder of Sion Davies, 25, in the Caia Park area of Wrexham in October 2014. Mr Munkley's wife Gwenythe, 55, also appeared in Mold Crown Court and denied attempting to pervert the course of justice. All three defendants also face charges related to the supply of drugs. The court heard that Mr Davies was shot at several times and "stabbed and slashed repeatedly" in a dispute over drugs. Prosecuting barrister Mr Andrew Thomas QC told the jury he was then chased onto a balcony and fell three floors but did not die immediately. He said he was left undiscovered in the back yard of the flats for nearly three hours and eventually died from a combination of stab wounds and a head injury which he suffered as a result of the fall. Mr Thomas told the court that Mr Munkley and Mr Roberts's accounts of what happened were inconsistent. He said that Mr Munkley had claimed the deceased arrived at his flat with an unknown man with a Geordie accent. The court was told that Mr Munkley claimed to have left the flat when the two men began fighting each other. The prosecutor also said that Mr Munkley had claimed that his co-defendant Mr Roberts was not present. Mr Thomas said by contrast Mr Roberts admitted he was at the flat with Mr Munkley at the time of the attack but that Mr Munkley acted alone. "On his account, there was no Geordie male," said Mr Thomas. In a police interview Mrs Munkley admitted that she drove her husband to Rochdale after the incident. "She says that all she knew was what her husband told her, namely that two men had started fighting in their flat. As far as she was aware, her husband had nothing to do with it," Mr Thomas explained. The case is continuing.

En mann døde etter å ha blitt skutt med en armbruse, stukket og falt fra en balkong på tredje etasje, en domstol har hørt.

Rossco Stern, Charlie Hill and Gary Thoms carried out the attack after turning up uninvited to the Halloween party in Dundee. A sheriff said CCTV footage of the attack was "one of the worst outbursts of violence" he had ever seen. The trio were remanded in custody ahead of sentencing on 23 February. A trial at Dundee Sheriff Court was told that the men had been thrown out of the party after sparking an argument. The CCTV footage showed victims Liam Holt, Fraser Nicoll and Michael Craib being attacked as they tried to flee the attackers. Mr Holt was seen being thrown to the ground before one of the gang repeatedly struck him on the head with a baseball bat while another, identified as Thoms, kicked his head. Knives were seen being brandished and repeatedly used on the victims, who eventually escaped.. Pictures of Mr Craib's injuries showed a deep gash on his neck. He told the court: "It was only just above my jugular. "When I went back outside Liam was on the ground - I thought he was dead." Jodie Feeney, who hosted the party, told the court: "Rossco Stern was shouting and screaming. "He was saying 'I'm from Glasgow - I'll show you how it's done'." Stern, 23, of Glasgow, and Hill, 33, of Dundee, admitted two charges each of assault to severe injury and permanent disfigurement on the third day of their trial. Thoms, 33, of Dundee, had denied a charge of assaulting Liam Holt to his severe injury and permanent disfigurement, but was found guilty by a jury. Sheriff George Way deferred sentence for social work background reports. He told the men: "It is perhaps one of the worst outbursts of violence I have ever had to witness through CCTV. "It was sustained and brutal. "You should be in no doubt that a custodial sentence of some length is at the forefront of my mind."

The Olympic gymnastic silver medallist, who won Strictly in 2012, earned his latest success on the night that Sir Bruce Forsyth returned to the show. Smith and professional partner Aliona Vilani earned a perfect score of 40 points from the judges for their quickstep to Jingle Bells. They won after the judges' and studio audience's scores were combined. Smith competed against other contestants from previous series - Rachel Stevens, Lisa Riley, Sophie Ellis-Bextor, Chris Hollins and Russell Grant. The 25-year-old said of his win: "It's a nice present, I am not going to lie! We've had such a fun time although the first week of rehearsals was hard. "But since then we have just been chilling out, laughing and giggling, messing around on the dance floor, it's been really good fun." The contestants and judges adopted the roles of pantomime characters. Sir Bruce, who stepped down as the regular weekly host of the programme this year, came back to present the show with Tess Daly and also sang a version of Winter Wonderland.

Three crews from Devon and Somerset Fire and Rescue were called to the wooden castle playhouse in Wells Recreation Ground on Saturday night. Fireworks residue was found on site and fire officers believe the blaze was started deliberately. The £160,000 park opened last Sunday after four years of planning by the community and Mendip District Council. Gavin Ellis, from Devon and Somerset Fire and Rescue Service, said an investigation was under way. He also said a witness saw some people using fireworks in Wells Recreation Ground before the blaze, which began shortly before 20:00 GMT. Councillor John North, chair of the Bishops Barn and Recreation Ground Trust in Wells, said: "Initially I was incandescent with anger about this and in some ways I still am," he said. "It took a group of people, Better Play Areas for Wells and the board of trustees four years to deliver a destination play area for Wells. "Within six and a half days of it being opened... it's been burned down by someone. "It was a great asset for the community, it brought families together." Resident Matthew Hartnett, said: "It took nine months to build, and destroyed in five minutes. "Everyone is absolutely devastated, there's a real sense of loss to everyone, a lot of people were due to take their children there today." The Better Play Area for Wells group said much of the play area was open, but its wooden castle will need replacing. "The trustees will be having an emergency meeting this week to review their options," it said. A crowd funding page has since been set up to rebuild the park.

The "entire teaching staff" at Our Lady of Lourdes Catholic Primary School "will leave at the end of the term", the Bristol Post has reported. South Gloucestershire Council said it is aware of the concerns from the National Union of Teachers and "is willing to work with its representatives". The school is yet to comment. A spokeswoman for South Gloucestershire NUT said staff had complained that a "heavy-handed management style has caused so many teachers to be off with stress". She added: "This rate of turnover is unacceptable. Children need consistency and stability. There should have been much stronger intervention once the situation was known." Clifton Diocese would not comment but instead directed the BBC to South Gloucestershire Council. A spokesman for the local authority said the newspaper figure of 16 staff leaving over the year is "misleading" as it includes temporary staff brought in to cover people leaving mid-year. But he confirmed seven long-term teachers have resigned over the course of this year includes two moving to other schools, the acting head who is taking up promotion elsewhere, and one member of staff's fixed-term contract ending. He added a new head has been appointed and will take up the post in January with leadership in the interim from the executive head.

En lærernes fagforening ved en skole i Bristol har snakket om en "fryktens atmosfære" der "resultatene settes fremfor barnets velferd".

PM Tony Abbot said Australian Federal Police would assume responsibility for security at the site in Canberra. The move came a day after major anti-terrorism raids took place in Sydney. They were aimed at thwarting an alleged plan by Islamic State (IS) supporters to carry out killings in Australia, including an on-camera beheading. In recent weeks, IS - a militant Islamist movement which has seized vast areas of Iraq and Syria - has released video footage showing the beheadings of two American journalists and a British aid worker seized. Speaking to the Australian Broadcasting Corporation, Mr Abbott said parliament had been identified as a potential target. "There certainly has been chatter amongst the terrorist support networks of an attack on government and government people, and Parliament House has been specifically mentioned," he said. As a result, an urgent security review had taken place. "Subsequently we are placing the Australian Federal Police in charge of security, not just outside the building but inside the building as well," he said. Security has until now been handled by an in-house security team. Asked about Thursday's raids, Mr Abbott said that security officials had acted quickly to disrupt the alleged terror network "because we believed that a demonstration execution was likely quickly". More than 800 officers took part in the operation, which resulted in 15 arrests. Australia media reports say the operation was triggered by an intercepted telephone call between the most senior Australian member of IS and domestic sympathisers in which he told them to carry out a series of random beheadings. Two men have since been charged. One of them, 22-year-old Omarjan Azari, has been charged with conspiracy to commit acts in preparation of a terrorist act and financing terrorism, the AFP said in a statement. Prosecutor Michael Allnutt said Mr Azari had planned to commit "extremely serious" offences that involved "an unusual level of fanaticism" and were "clearly designed to shock, horrify and terrify" the public. A 24-year-old man was charged with unauthorised possession of a prohibited weapon and possessing ammunition without a licence. Phil Mercer: Australia's home-grown terror threat Who are Australia's radicalised Muslims? Australia last week raised its terror threat level from medium to high - the second highest rank - amid mounting concern over the impact of Australians fighting with Islamic militant groups in the Middle East on domestic security. Officials say dozens of Australians have gone to fight for IS, which has taken control of large swathes of Iraq and Syria, and the al-Nusra Front, an al-Qaeda-affiliated rebel group in Syria. Australia has recently committed troops to combat IS in Iraq.

Speaking to Maclean's magazine, she said that having a female prime minister is "the best thing that's happened" to the UK for a long time. "I actually really like her," the British singer-songwriter said. "I will say it is great to have a woman in charge of the country. She's very sensible and I think that's a good thing at this point in time." The singer was responding to a question from the interviewer about her 1985 song Waking the Witch, which she once said was about "the fear of women's power". Bush said May was "a very intelligent woman but I don't see much to fear". The singer performed a version of Waking The Witch on her newly released live album of tracks from her 2014 Hammersmith Apollo residency, which could be heading to the top of the UK album chart this weekend. Bush previously wrote a song for a sketch on a 1990 episode of TV series The Comic Strip, about the former Labour Mayor of London, Ken Livingstone. The lyrics included: "Look to the left and to the right. We need help and there's nobody in sight. Where is the man that we all need? Well tell him he's to come and rescue me. Ken is the man that we all need. Ken is the leader of the GLC." The track also describes Livingstone as "a sex machine". In an 2010 interview with Kate Bush fanzine KateBushNews.com, Livingstone said: "Of course I was a fan of the song... If only Kate Bush had seen me as a real sex machine!"

Kate Bush har beskrevet Theresa May som "forunderlig" i et intervju med et canadisk magasin.

Media playback is not supported on this device Referee Anastasios Sidiropoulos denied the hosts a penalty when 1-0 up before later awarding one for a Laurent Koscielny foul on Robert Lewandowski. Koscielny was sent off as Arsenal lost 5-1 on Tuesday and 10-2 on aggregate. "The penalty and red card are absolutely unexplainable and scandalous," Gunners boss Wenger said. "It's irresponsible from the referee. It leaves me very angry and very frustrated." Arsenal faced an uphill struggle going into Tuesday's second leg having suffered a 5-1 defeat in Germany three weeks ago. Theo Walcott's first-half strike gave them a sliver of hope, but that vanished when Lewandowski scored from the spot shortly after the restart and Koscielny was sent off for the foul that led to the penalty. Sidiropoulos initially showed Koscielny a yellow card but upgraded that to a red after consulting his assistant on the byeline, with the defender apparently deemed to have committed a deliberate foul. Under laws introduced in April, the previous punishment of a red card and a penalty for a foul in the box that denies a goalscoring opportunity was changed. Now, players committing accidental fouls that deny a goalscoring chance are shown a yellow instead - but deliberate fouls still incur a red card. After Bayern's equaliser, Arsenal's momentum faded. They conceded four goals in 17 minutes but, despite suffering the biggest aggregate defeat of an English side in the Champions League, Wenger said the result did not "reflect the courage of the performance". "Overall it's difficult to understand what's happened," he told BT Sport. "I still must say my team has produced a huge effort and played very well." Wenger added he thought Xabi Alonso's challenge on Theo Walcott in the first half was "100% a penalty", and also claimed Bayern striker Lewandowski was offside in the build-up to the foul by Koscielny that resulted in the French defender's dismissal. "It's just not serious," Wenger said. "When you see the importance of the games and you see an attitude like that I am absolutely revolted and sorry for people who come and pay a lot of money to watch this kind of game." The 67-year-old Frenchman was also the subject of protests from fans before the game at Emirates Stadium, asking for him to step down. When asked about the demonstration, Wenger said: "I've nothing to add to that." The Gunners have now been knocked out at this stage of the Champions League for seven successive seasons. And it would be the "right decision for the club" if Wenger was to leave after 21 years in charge, says former Tottenham midfielder Jermaine Jenas. "Changes seem inevitable," Jenas told BBC Radio 5 live. "This is a pivotal moment in Arsenal's history, a moment to look on. There needs to be a cleansing." Neil Lennon echoed that sentiment, calling Arsenal "a team of spoiled brats, who throw in the towel too easily at times". "What I don't want is for Arsene to tarnish his legacy," said the Hibernian manager. "Since they reached the Champions League final in 2006, there's been a steady decline and there comes a point where people switch off to it and that point has come." Arsenal's best chance of silverware this season is in the FA Cup and they host non-league Lincoln City in the quarter-finals on Saturday. They are fifth in the Premier League, 16 points behind leaders Chelsea and two points adrift of fourth-place Liverpool, although they have a game in hand. "It will be a tough ask to get into the top four," said Jenas. "You have seen over the last two games... the way they fell apart has not been great for Wenger." Media playback is not supported on this device There was also reaction from other former professionals, including ex-Arsenal striker Ian Wright. He told BT Sport: "The first game was more upsetting than this, but it's a sad day because we've gone out again at this stage. We're going through a period in our history that's the worst. "It will take some sort of monumental effort to turn it around in terms of the drive and determination of the players. It feels like something is coming to an end." Former Manchester United defender Rio Ferdinand added: "The last 10 years in terms of league trophies and the Champions League, it's been a disappointing time. "It's disappointing to see Wenger go out on this note after all he's done. At this moment in time things are not going right and he can't seem to find the answer." Ex-Arsenal Ladies captain Rachel Yankey If you get rid of Arsene Wenger, what next? Who do you bring in? Where is the club going to go? For me, the question over who should be manager obscures the wider issues of what is going wrong. The team needs to be better, but all the focus is on Wenger when surely it's the players who need to be taking more responsibility on the pitch. When things go wrong, you want to see character. We've not seen that from them in recent games. We don't know the whole story about what happened with Alexis Sanchez, but players having bust-ups in training? I don't see that as a bad thing. Football should be a passionate game, you want to see people pushing each other on. James Holness: Wenger points the finger of blame elsewhere for Arsenal's failings, but ultimately he MUST take responsibility. He has to go. Grumpy Expat: I love Arsene Wenger. Given me many happy memories. I loved my ex-girlfriend too. As difficult as it was, that had to end too. Craig Smith: Sad day for Arsenal as Wenger's legacy is going down in flames. Hope he quits early so can be given a positive send off. Tim: Wenger shouldn't be given the option of turning down new deal. No one is bigger than the club. Sack him. Now. Johnny Magrinho: Wenger to blame? Ridiculous. The success he's brought to this club is astronomical. This? Not his fault. Blame the players. RobroyMan: Arsenal need a serious rebuild from the board down. Mentality is marshmallow. Bellerin, Ozil and Sanchez gone. Manager is responsible for the character of his team, full stop. Bring In Allegri. Rewstep: Well now go, Walk out the door, Just turn around now, you're not manager any more... Selected from user comments and tweets sent to #bbcfootball

Arsene Wenger sa at han var "opprørt" av dommeren etter at hans "modige" Arsenal-side led en slutt-16-kamp i Champions League av Bayern München.

"We call it the 'yellow brick road'," said George Tunnicliffe, the theatre's head of IT operations, who could be considered the wizard at the heart of this venerable institution. But Mr Tunnicliffe has little else in common with the man behind the curtains in Oz, who was all show and no substance. He leaves the showboating to the actors, producers, directors, stage hands and support staff who put on about 30 different productions a year. "We want those guys to work without having to think about cyber-security and things like that, their job is to put on an awesome production," he said during a backstage tour of the theatre. Mr Tunnicliffe organises its defences against not only the kind of cyber-attacks faced by other companies, but theatre-specific ones like touts trying to grab tickets to popular shows. "We do see a lot of attacks and they are getting more sophisticated," he said. At the heart of the security stance is a much greater knowledge of who is doing what on the theatre's network - no matter where they are. "We've spent a lot of time understanding how everyone works," he said. "We have a monitoring board in the IT office so we can see minute-by-minute what's going on and where issues are happening." That's key, he said, because it can expose ongoing attacks and the reconnaissance many hackers carry out before they strike. "Every device has information on it that could be useful to an attacker," said Mr Tunnicliffe. "With drive-by and phishing attacks that's what people are looking to do - build up a picture of an organisation," he said. "Especially with something like whaling and the social engineering element of that." Whaling is a very tightly-focused form of phishing which plays on a close knowledge of an organisation's internal structure to forge emails from executives that make finance staff speed up the payment of a fictitious invoice or bill. Millions of pounds has been lost by organisations that have fallen victim to that kind of scam. The monitoring board helps spot when data is going astray or a machine is visiting a site with a reputation for being involved in a scam. Complementing this is work to segment internal systems so staff working for different bits of the theatre only see a small part of the whole organisation. That helps with some of the unique challenges faced by an organisation like the theatre which, although it has its headquarters in London, has a mandated role to bring art and drama to as wide an audience as possible. It has units staging productions around the UK and the world - War Horse is currently on tour in China. It also runs workshops for schools and, via its Connections programme, lets drama groups for younger people enjoy a taste of professional theatre. During an average year it stages 3,000 performances seen by a total audience of about 2.5 million people - 700,000 of whom see them live. Productions work to a six-week rehearsal and staging schedule which means there is a constant flow of temporary staff through the building. "Organisations that do have a high turnover of staff usually have a high risk of insider threat," said Neil Thacker from security firm Forcepoint, which helps the theatre secure its digital borders. "That can be because they are learning new systems and making mistakes and data is lost accidentally." The strict divisions among staff who work together limits the information that could be leaked and helps investigate what caused data to go astray, said Mr Thacker. That can be critical to help understand the nature of a threat - whether it was malicious or a mistake. "We know where data is and then, if it leaves, we know where it has gone," said Mr Tunnicliffe. Alongside this goes an active programme of testing that tries to prepare staff for the bad day when disaster strikes. It is inevitable that it will, he said, because no defence is ever going to be 100% proof against the barrage of threats it, and every other organisation, is hit with every day. "We have spent a lot of time creating disaster recovery scenarios," he said. "We've practiced viruses taking down the network, ransomware outbreaks and things like that." Carrying out the drills means that staff should be able to react more quickly and effectively when they need to, said Mr Tunnicliffe. "We repeat these scenarios and test them at different points in time," he said. For many of the most likely security disasters, the NT has created tools that can quickly fix a problem, such as a till in a restaurant failing, or that can diagnose and repair a key part of the theatre's infrastructure. "We've built push button stuff so the engineers do not have to think about what to do when they need to solve a problem," he said. "We have a good sense of where our kit is and what it is linked to, so if something happens we know what is going to be affected." The ideal is when the directors, actors and support staff can get on with what they do without having to be an expert on the intricacies of cyber-security or changing practices distilled over decades. It is a situation the National Theatre is steadily working towards, said Mr Tunnicliffe. "They are here to do the art and I am here to make it safe," he said. This week BBC News is taking a close look at all aspects of cyber-security. The coverage is timed to coincide with the two biggest shows in the security calendar - Black Hat and Def Con. We will have further features and videos on Wednesday, and then coverage from the two Las Vegas-based events over the following days. Follow all our coverage via this link

The 24-year-old suffered a cardiac arrest during an FA Cup match against Tottenham Hotspur in March. He returned to the Reebok Stadium earlier to promote the Hearts and Goals campaign. The initiative aims to increase the number of defibrillators in public places and offer CPR training. Muamba's heart stopped for 78 minutes after he collapsed on the pitch and medics used a defibrillator several times to restart his heart. He said: "It happened to me and I had the right people at the right time to help me. "I was grateful to be saved by people and I wanted to be part of this. "Hopefully we can put this machine in every public place we can to help people save lives." The campaign is run in association with Bolton Wanderers, the Arrhythmia Alliance based in Stratford-upon-Avon and the Heart Rhythm Charity. Muamba said he had not ruled out a return to football, but has designs on some of the game's less stressful roles. "To be a coach you need a bigger heart and my heart is very tiny," he added. "I had a cardiac arrest playing football and you see coaches having heart problems. "That's why I'll walk away from football and do something different in my life. "I would like to be upstairs, be a director of football. Wearing the suits, looking smart and talking about football - no strain on the heart at all."

The man, aged in his 40s, was found dead at a house in Thornton Road, Morecambe, at about 22:00 GMT on Friday. An investigation is under way after police were called by paramedics. A woman had also apparently taken the substance but survived and is helping officers with their inquiries, Lancashire Police said. Legal highs produce the same, or similar effects, to drugs such as cocaine and ecstasy, but are not controlled under the Misuse of Drugs Act. They cannot be sold for human consumption, but are often given labels such as "plant food" to get around the law. Recent studies have shown deaths linked to the substances are increasing.

Caparo Tubular Solutions has been sold to the Gupta family, which manages metals group Liberty House, PwC said. The sale, described as a "sliver of good news" by a union boss, secures hundreds of jobs in the West Midlands and Blaenau Gwent. In October, Caparo announced 452 jobs were to go across the country, including 300 in the West Midlands, after it entered administration. A total of 76 jobs in the West Midlands and south of England were saved last week when PwC confirmed Caparo Testing Technologies had been sold. It brings the total number of jobs saved at the company to 409. PwC said clarifying the number of posts secured in each location was difficult because some staff work across more than one site. The latest sale includes the businesses of Caparo Precision Tubes, Caparo Tube Components and Caparo Accles and Pollock, all based in Oldbury, West Midlands. Also saved are steel distributor Hub Le Bas in Bilston, West Midlands and the Caparo Tubes Tredegar Asset in Tredegar, Blaenau Gwent. Sanjeev Gupta, chief executive of Liberty House, described the Caparo tube businesses as "a major complement" to the company's own hot rolled coil production, based in Newport, south-east Wales. He said: "I believe that, despite the current difficulties being encountered by the UK steel industry there is a future for the sector in Britain. "Caparo Tubular Solutions was a fundamentally profitable business with substantial, sustainable value, and we were very attracted to its highly-skilled management and workforce, extensive distribution network and top-quality customer base." Robert Moran, partner at PwC, said: "The sale of Caparo Tubular Solutions is a major boost for the midlands economy, the employees of Caparo and more widely for the UK steel industry. "This deal preserves all 333 jobs at Caparo Tubular Solutions, which manufactures, distributes and supplies advanced tube components and parts for the automotive and aerospace industries in the West Midlands and south Wales." Unions have blamed cheap imports from China for the UK steel industry's problems. Russell Farrington, GMB regional organiser, said: "This is a sliver of good news for workers in the steel industry. "GMB warmly welcome this for the Caparo workers we represent in the West Midlands. We have made progress on the energy prices front for the UK steel industry. "We now need action on dumping."

George Osborne said that he would not give the go-ahead until the markets had calmed, saying that "now is not the right time". He said he still supported encouraging wider share ownership in Britain. The taxpayer still owns just under 10% of the bank. The sale of the final part of the government's stake in Lloyds was a general election pledge made by Prime Minister David Cameron. It was expected to raise £2bn, making it one of the largest privatisations since the 1980s when BT and British Gas were sold, raising £3.9bn and £5.6bn respectively. Mr Osborne announced the details of the Lloyds sale to hundreds of thousands of small investors last October. It was thought the sale would take place in the spring. But since then Lloyds' share price has fallen and the trading environment for banks has become tougher. Low interest rates also make profits harder to come by across the sector. In October, Lloyds share price was 78p, above the 74p considered to be the "in price" the government paid to rescue the bank during the financial crisis - when it used billions of pounds of tax-payers money to shore up the financial system. That share price is now down at 64p, so the government would be selling the shares to the public at a considerable loss. Mr Osborne told BBC News that his "principal concern" in deciding to postpone the sale was turbulence in the financial markets, despite "hundreds of thousands" of private investors being "interested". "I want to create a share owning democracy and I want to give the British people a chance to buy shares in Lloyds bank, a bank that they had to bail out. It is also my responsibility to make sure we have a secure and sound economy and with these turbulent financial markets it wouldn't be right to have the Lloyds share sale now," he said. "There will be a sale of shares [in] Lloyds but only when the time is right for people. "We need those markets to calm down, and then we can proceed with the sale. We've got hundreds of thousands of people interested in buying these shares, I want to sell them the shares, but it wouldn't be right to undertake that sale when frankly things are pretty turbulent out there on the stock markets and the global financial markets." September 2008: Lloyds takes on collapsed bank HBOS October 2008: Labour government reveals it has bailed out Lloyds, taking a stake of 43% April 2010: Lloyds announces a profit for the first time since the crisis September 2013: Coalition government starts return of the bank to the private sector, selling part of its stake to major institutional investors October 2015: Conservative government says it will sell its final stake in Lloyds with shares offered to private investors January 2016: Chancellor George Osborne says the sale is being delayed owing to turbulent markets On Wednesday, the Royal Bank of Scotland (RBS) announced billions of pounds of new provisions to pay for fines and legal actions connected to the financial crisis. Its share price has also fallen. The government owns 73% of RBS and just under 10% of Lloyds. It does not look like it will be selling either stake any time soon. Laith Khalaf, senior analyst at Hargreaves Lansdown, said: "This will be a big disappointment for the hundreds of thousands of investors who had queued up for a chunk of Lloyds, but taking a big loss on selling shares when markets are low was always going to be a bridge too far for the chancellor. "The timetable for the share sale has always been vague being 'spring' of 2016. The government are looking to obtain a good price for the remaining 10% of the Lloyds Banking Group they own and timing to get the best value around issues such as the Budget, financial and tax year end and Lloyd's own financial calendar was always going to be tricky. "Market volatility in recent months has seen UK stock market values fall by around 20% since the April 2015 high, so its understandable that the share sale is being delayed." This decision comes after sales of publicly-owned assets, including Royal Mail and Eurostar, raised more money for the government in 2015 than any other year in history, according to new analysis by the Press Association. A total of £26.4bn was made through privatisations, beating by almost £6m the previous record set in 1987.

Company leaders said the gains are a sign that investment in new shows and movies is paying off as online television becomes more popular. The firm is behind shows such as 13 Reasons Why, about teen suicide, and the political drama House of Cards. Boss Reed Hastings said it was "the rewards of doing great content". Netflix shares rose more than 10% in after-hours trading following the announcement of its second quarter earnings. Company leaders said new content creation was critical to competing against other online rivals such as Amazon and YouTube, as well as traditional television. They said generating new content also meant streaming services were expanding the size of the overall market. "The largely exclusive nature of each service's content means that we are not direct substitutes for each other, but rather complements," company leaders wrote in a letter to shareholders. "The shift from linear TV to on-demand viewing is so big and there is so much leisure time, many internet TV services will be successful." Netflix said it added about 5.2 million members during the quarter, most from overseas. International members now account for about half of Netflix subscribers, the firm said. The firm has cultivated those audiences with movies such as Okja, a film made by one of South Korea's top directors about a young girl's quest to recover a giant companion from a multi-national corporation. The firm also said it expects international members to help boost profits for the year - a first for that part of the business. The growth helped produce $2.8bn in quarterly revenue, up more than 32% from the same period in 2016. Netflix said it expects revenue to reach nearly $3bn in the third quarter. Profits for the three months that ended in June were $65.6m, up about 60% year-on-year. Company leaders also told investors they plan to continue to invest more in content as the firm grows.

The Armada portrait, thought to have been painted in 1590, was being sold by descendants of Sir Francis Drake. An Art Fund appeal generated £1.5m from 8,000 donations. The Heritage Lottery Fund gave £7.4m; the Art Fund and Royal Museums Greenwich were major donors. The picture will go on show at the Queen's House in Greenwich, near the site of Elizabeth's birth, in October. The painting, considered to be a masterpiece of the English Renaissance, commemorates one of the most famous moments of Elizabeth's reign, the failed invasion of England by the Spanish Armada in 1588. Sir Francis was the vice admiral of the English fleet at the time and it is believed he may even have commissioned the painting, which is unusual for its large size - 3ft 7ins by 4ft 1in (1.1m by 1.25m) - and horizontal format. The Art Fund donated £1m to the cost of the painting, while Royal Museums Greenwich supplied £400,000. The remaining funds came from the Linbury Trust, the Garfield Weston Foundation and the Headley Trust. Stephen Deuchar, director of The Art Fund, said the campaign to save the painting had been "a triumph of popular will". "Record numbers of donors, large and small, stepped forward with determination and generosity, creating an irresistible momentum that has brought this great work into public ownership at last," he said. HLF chairman Sir Peter Luff said the painting was "a compelling historic icon, illustrating as it does a decisive conflict, inspiring female leadership, maritime power and the emergence of the Elizabethan 'Golden Age'". "This image has shaped our understanding of the Virgin Queen for over 400 years and I am delighted that it will now have such an appropriate permanent home in Greenwich," he added. The painting will be the centrepiece for the reopening of the Queen's House on 11 October. It will then undergo a conservation process to "restore its fragile painted surfaces" before becoming part of an exhibition and outreach programme, an Art Fund spokeswoman said. Among those who donated to the appeal were a seven-year-old Wakefield girl, who sold Elizabeth I cupcakes whilst dressed in a costume inspired by the painting, and pupils at St Paul's Girl School in London, who held a bake sale to raise funds. St Paul's history teacher Blanche Girouard said the girls "study the portrait when we teach Elizabeth I and the Armada, so [they were] very keen to help save it for the nation".

Citigroup got roasted by its investors. Aviva in the UK got the thumbs down on Thursday and companies like Barclays, Reckitt Benckiser and UBS have all been given nasty shocks. The accepted explanation for this behaviour is that shareholders have been faced with declining returns and watched in increasing frustration as boardroom pay has gone ever upwards until, finally, they've lost their collective rags. There is even some evidence to suppose this insubordination might be catching. However the bigger question is why this didn't happen a long time ago. While investors may well get upset in times of a crisis when they see their management walking away with big bonuses, they seem to have been remarkably insouciant when times were good, even though they were still seeing salaries outstrip their own returns. Why did they do nothing then? The fact that they did so little suggests that when some kind of growth returns shareholders will return to their old negligent ways. For illustration, you only have to look back at the first part of the last decade when shareholders could have expected to make handsome returns - if one regarded the rises in salaries of their chief executives as an indicator of their investments' growth and profitability. According to the US-based Economic Policy Institute, pay for the average chief executive of a company making more than $1bn in revenue in the US rose 84% to $6.05m on an inflation-adjusted basis between 2000 and 2005. The S&P 500 index in that time rose, er, minus 17%. Comparing return on an investment with the growth in an annual salary is strictly speaking not a valid comparison - even so there is an obvious disparity here. The greatest annoyance was over severance pay which displayed the most blatant mismatch of performance and reward. For instance, Pfizer's former chief executive Henry A McKinnell was forced into early retirement after the company's stock price fell, but still managed to leave with an astonishing golden parachute worth more than $180m. Mattel boss Jill Barad received $50m in severance pay after a disastrous internet investment at the peak of the tech bubble, which saw Mattel's stock price fall by 50%, wiping out $2.5bn in shareholder value. Much of the rise in corporate remuneration comes in stock options, which are meant to reflect the performance of the chief executive - which they did, up to a point. Often they can increase in value simply because the whole market is rising. That is becoming increasingly apparent as chief executives exercise options for huge numbers of shares granted them at the bottom of the market in 2008/9. But there have been slow - some would say painfully slow - attempts at reform such as bringing in shareholder votes on executive pay in the UK. In the US, shareholders won the right to vote on executive pay at most public companies under the 2010 Dodd-Frank Act. These are non-binding but as they start to be exercised more forcefully may start to impose greater restraint on board room pay. Indeed the Citgroup vote was followed up by a shareholder suing the bank accusing directors of breaching their fiduciary duties by awarding more than $54m of compensation in 2011 to the executives, though the bank's performance did not necessarily justify it. They may well stiffened by increased legislation. The UK's Business Secretary Vince Cable is suggesting that shareholder votes might become binding and also that boards may have to have 75% approval to get their pay packages approved. And then there is the case of individual shareholder activism, which rather than being constrained to fund managers, could start working all the way down the ownership chain. Louise Rouse, of the UK's FairPensions campaign group, explains: "What we have been seeing over the last decade instead of a redistribution of resources to shareholders in the form of dividends is money going to excessive executive pay. "So we want to see ordinary individuals holding the pension funds and the institutional investors to account asking them directly how they vote on pay packages. "That sort of scrutiny would lead to greater action on their part."

The country's military ruler dropped objections to accepting help in the case after being pressed on the issue by UK Prime Minister David Cameron. The bodies of David Miller, 24, and Hannah Witheridge, 23, were discovered on a beach on 15 September. Two Burmese men are under arrest but the Thai inquiry has been criticised. The UK Foreign Office summoned the Thai charge d'affaires earlier this week to express concern about the police investigation. Zaw Lin and Win Zaw Htun, both migrant workers from Myanmar, also known as Burma, are alleged to have confessed to the killings earlier this month. Police have denied subsequent reports that the pair, both aged 21, then withdrew their confessions. The two suspects were in court for a pre-trial witness hearing on the island of Koh Samui on Tuesday, but did not testify. They are charged with conspiracy to murder, conspiracy to rape and robbery, and could face the death penalty if found guilty. Thai Prime Minister Gen Prayuth Chan-ocha met Mr Cameron at a summit in Italy and agreed that a delegation of British officers could travel to Thailand, having previously rejected offers of assistance. A diplomatic source said that Thai authorities were leading the investigation, but it was important that the victims' families could be reassured about the justice process. He said: "There are two areas we are particularly concerned about. One is the verification of the DNA samples of the suspects, making sure there is further independent verification. "And the second is the investigation into allegations of mistreatment of the suspects. "What the PM secured was agreement from the Thai PM that we can send some British police investigators to Koh Tao to work with the Royal Thai Police on this." The discussion between the leaders came at the Asia Europe Meeting in Milan. Post-mortem examinations found Mr Miller, from Jersey, died from drowning and a blow to the head, while Miss Witheridge, from Great Yarmouth, died from head wounds. Police have said DNA found on Ms Witheridge matched samples taken from the suspects. Concerns about the murder investigation include the fact the crime scene was not sealed off after the killings, as well as the fact an early statement was released by police saying that no Thai person could have committed such a crime. Mr Zaw's mother Phyu Shwe Nu has said her son was being made a "scapegoat" by police.

The entire frontage of the home in Cheltenham collapsed and garden walls were flattened. The attack on the home on Tewkesbury Road took place early on Wednesday evening. A lorry, thought to be the one used, was later found burnt out in a field off nearby Withybridge Lane, Gloucestershire Police said. According to the Land Registry, the house is owned by John Connors, who was jailed in 2012 with four other members of his family, after being found guilty of keeping a private workforce. In 2014 he was ordered to pay just over £300,000 as part of a proceeds of crime hearing. The house was put up for sale earlier this year, but the estate agent dealing with the sale was unable to tell the BBC whether it had yet been sold. Gloucestershire Police said enquiries were ongoing. BBC Radio Gloucestershire reporter David Smith said: "It's quite a sizeable house, a nice house, with gable windows built into the roof. "Now the entire ground floor has gone. There is nothing left of it. There is brickwork all over the floor."

Stuart Howatson, 37, from Warwickshire, ordered expensive computer security systems, offered an engineer a job and duped hotel staff to get free rooms. Sentencing him, Recorder Derek Sweeting QC told him the the real purpose of the fraud was to make him feel better and more powerful. The court heard he has a variety of personality disorders. He previously admitted 12 counts of fraud and theft. The court heard he had been jailed in 2010 for pretending to be a royal protection police officer. More updates on this story and others in Coventry and Warwickshire Howatson's lawyer, Nick Devine, told Coventry Crown Court: "The plain fact of the matter was that he was enjoying the fact that he was dealing with these big figures, and the fact he was pretending to be someone with the kind of authority to enter into such contracts. "It was all about what he got out of the pretence of being somebody in a considerable position of authority in a glamorous line of business." Prosecutor Sharon Bahia said one of four people Howatson lied to was was an engineer who flew to Cologne with his wife to meet him after being promised a job as an operations director with Mercedes. Ms Bahia said the man described Howatson as being very knowledgeable about Mercedes-Benz, and offered him Bupa health care and software to learn German. The court was also told that Howatson, of Fisher Road, Bishops Itchington, used false email accounts purporting to belong to his assistants at Mercedes to book hotel rooms in Bewdley and Kidderminster. Passing sentence, Recorder Sweeting told Howatson: "You carried off the deception with a great deal of persuasive skill."

William Ward, 56, suffered "catastrophic" injuries when a section of the structure collapsed on top of him. European Metal Recycling (EMR) had pleaded guilty at Warwick Crown Court to failing in its duty of care. The firm was also ordered to pay £88,000 costs. Mr Ward, from Handsworth, Sheffield, had been part of a team using blow torches to dismantle barges at the company's depot in Kingsbury, near Tamworth, in October 2011. The Health and Safety Executive (HSE), said Mr Ward had finished cutting through the outer skin of the barge's hull before moving inside the unsupported structure. He was about to cut through some more supports when the side collapsed in on him, they said. The watchdog said it had identified "serious flaws with the method of work being used to dismantle the barges". EMR, of Westbrook, Warrington, Cheshire, "failed to do enough to protect the workers", it added. Mr Ward's wife of 25 years, Jayne, said being unable to say "goodbye" to her husband was "one of the worst things" to deal with. "Other people can go home to talk to their partners and parents. I have no partner now and the boys have no father. "I think of all the things that Billy will never see - the boys getting married, having children, children which would have been our grandchildren" HSE inspector Mark Austin said the firm had "neglected its responsibility" to Mr Ward and his "terrible and senseless" death was "completely preventable". Two subcontractors, brothers Stuart and Dennis Cheesman, also admitted health and safety offences in relation to the case and are due to be sentenced next year.

Clement began his coaching career with the Blues and won several trophies as assistant to Carlo Ancelotti. He returns to face the runaway Premier League leaders as a manager for the first time having guided the Swans to three wins from their last four games. "It depends how the game goes and how I feel about it after," said Clement. Clement is expecting a reasonable reception at Stamford Bridge, although he believes he will not be the centre of attention. That accolade, he insists, will go to one of his assistants at Swansea, Claude Makelele, a legend at the London club, making 217 appearances during his distinguished playing career and who Clement is determined to keep on his staff at the Liberty Stadium next season. Clement said: "When I have been back, those few occasions, people have always been very nice. I will be interested to see what happens this time. I think Claude will get a fantastic reception as he is so well known. Me less so. He was a legend for the club and is excited about going back there." Clement began his coaching career back in 1995 at the Chelsea Academy before returning as a coach in 2007 and became Ancelotti's number two in 2009. In their first season together the pair guided the Blues to their first ever Premier League and FA Cup double and Clement unsurprisingly has fond memories of the time. Media playback is not supported on this device "It was a brilliant learning experience," said Clement. "The players were very respectful. I was working with a great coach in Carlo and (coach) Ray Wilkins had great experience. "What I remember about that season is how mature and strong the team was. (Petr) Cech, (John) Terry, (Michael) Ballack, (Frank) Lampard, (Michael) Essien, (Didier) Drogba...strong characters. They were right at their peak at that point." And it seemed even the bad times had their good moments too with Clement recalling Ancelotti's shock sacking in a corridor at Everton's Goodison Park in May 2011. "I think Carlo was half expecting it with what had happened leading into that game. Maybe he didn't expect it right at that moment, but there you go," said Clement. "I was there. I'd gone in to have a drink with David Moyes. He told me on the bus that he'd been told by the dressing room by (then-Chelsea chief executive) Ron (Gourlay). "Then word gradually got around. When we got back, we went out into London and had a really good night. It was really good. It was a bar up in town. We went with some players." Since leaving Ancelotti behind at Bayern Munich to take charge at Swansea, 45-year-old Clement has rejuvenated the Welsh club, pulling them clear of the relegation places with impressive wins over Liverpool, Southampton and Leicester. Clement is enjoying life as a Premier League boss, having been named manager of the month for January. "It was a great moment leading my team out at Anfield," said Clement. "It was a great moment leading my team out against Manchester City to come up against (Pep) Guardiola, someone I had really admired and the work he did at Barcelona. "So to come up against him, compete and come to close and afterwards have a drink with him, just me and him, and to talk about football. It is great. Brilliant."

Swansea City-leder Paul Clement sier at han gleder seg til å vende tilbake til sin tidligere klubb Chelsea, men at resultatet vil avgjøre hans endelige humør.

The hosts were 2-0 up after just 17 minutes thanks to goals from Julien de Sart and Darren Bent. Kadeem Harris scored either side of half-time to bring the visitors level, and Craig Noone put them ahead with a fine curling effort. Bent's header made it 3-3 but Ralls' injury-time penalty won it for Cardiff. Victory lifts Neil Warnock's side up to 12th in the Championship table, just one place and five points behind Derby, who fall to 11th and are now eight points adrift of the top six. Steve McClaren's men had recovered from 3-0 down to draw 3-3 at home to Bristol City on Saturday, but on this occasion it was the Rams who were on the receiving end of a dramatic turnaround. Derby looked in total control when De Sart struck on the rebound and Bent converted from Tom Ince's pass to put the home side 2-0 up. But four minutes before the interval, Harris gave Cardiff hope when his deflected strike looped over Scott Carson in the home goal. Harris then scored less than two minutes after the restart as he pounced on a loose ball in the penalty area. Cardiff led for the first time when Noone skilfully found the top corner from the edge of the box, but Bent appeared to have salvaged a point for Derby when he rose higher than Sean Morrison to head in. However, there was a final twist in added time as Bluebirds substitute Rhys Healey was tripped by Alex Pearce, allowing Ralls to calmly stroke his penalty into the bottom corner. Derby County manager Steve McClaren: "You score three goals at home and you expect to win but we haven't done that in the last two games. Why? Because we conceded seven goals. "We've gone from a team who were hard to beat and defended very, very well to conceding seven in two games and you don't collect points doing that. "This is the first defeat at home since September so let's not panic and over-react and say the wheels have come off, but we have to work hard on the training field." Cardiff City boss Neil Warnock: "That's what you call old-fashioned football, end-to-end stuff and that's why I love the game. It was great to be involved in one like that, especially coming out on the right side. "It gives me a lot of pride when I see us come to a place like this and stand up and be counted, and that's why I love the Championship more than any other league because you get genuine lads in this level. "The goal before half-time helped us enormously. We talked about not thinking about drawing the game but trying to win it. I think we can go anywhere and give people a good game now. The biggest problem we've got is ourselves." Match ends, Derby County 3, Cardiff City 4. Second Half ends, Derby County 3, Cardiff City 4. Corner, Cardiff City. Conceded by Alex Pearce.

More than 40,000 people fled their homes after Islamic State militants seized the city of Ramadi on Friday. Many were stranded on open land until being allowed to cross a bridge over the River Euphrates on Wednesday. The Shia-led government is concerned IS militants might hide among those fleeing the Sunni-dominated region. But several people are reported to have died of dehydration or exhaustion while being kept away. "The Iraqi government, they've established checkpoints at some of the main entry points into the city because they're very worried about the potential for hostile elements to enter Baghdad," Lise Grande, the UN Deputy Special Representative for Iraq, told the BBC. "At one of the checkpoints on one of the entry bridges there are up to 6,000 people who have been forced to sleep outside," she added. Athal al-Fahdawi, an Anbar provincial council member, later told the Associated Press that thousands of the displaced people were being allowed to cross a bridge in the Bzeibez area.

Two tries from Mahe Fonua helped Hull take an early 18-0 lead before Liam Watts was controversially sent off for a high tackle on Luke Gale. Tigers went in 20-14 behind at the break through Greg Minikin, Ben Roberts and Michael Shenton scores. Roberts crossed again, but Carlos Tuimavave's try in the corner gave Hull back-to-back victories. Mike McMeeken scored on the hooter for Cas, who missed the chance to extend their lead at the top of the table over Leeds, with the Rhinos in Challenge Cup action on Friday. Prop Scott Taylor had put Hull on the board after great work from Albert Kelly and Fonua scored twice in the corner to give the hosts a real chance of victory, but Watts' dismissal changed the complexion of the game. Less than one minute after Hull went down to 12 men, the Tigers scored their first try when Minikin rode the tackle of Sneyd for his 11th of the season. Roberts then went over from close range for the Tigers after a break from Greg Eden, and Roberts' dash of his own allowed Shenton to score, after which Paul McShane scored the first of just two successful conversion attempts by his team. Sneyd scored penalty goals either side of the break as Hull held out until the 58th minute, when Roberts' second brought them to within four points. But Hull's defence continued to graft, forcing Junior Moors and McShane into errors on the try line, before Steve Michaels won a kick in the air, got the ball away to Tuimavave and he scored in the corner to make it 26-18. McMeeken crossed too late to make a real difference for Cas, who could look back in frustration at their missed conversions. Hull FC coach Lee Radford: "We're not making a big deal out of this win. We've been good, not great, but the time to be great is at the end of the season, like Wigan showed last season. "We're not far away at all and when the big fixtures come we need to be ready. "Until Liam's sending off we were well on top. I saw that in a different performance after we went down to 12 men, which was an unbelievable effort. "I could sense confidence at half-time and we came up with try savers - and that builds more confidence." Castleford coach Daryl Powell: "It was still doable, but we panicked. Hull were superb and started like a house on fire and we were nowhere to be seen, which was disappointing. "When they went down to 12 men, we spoke about being calm - but they kept us out. I'm not taking anything away from Hull as it was a tremendous effort. "To lose Gale was a blow and we lost some clarity as we couldn't get our combinations together and we made too many errors."

It follows the reopening of the 500m stretch known as the Todmorden Curve, which has been delayed by a year. The route was initially axed in 1972. Passengers no longer have to change at Hebden Bridge in Yorkshire on journeys between Burnley and Manchester. Burnley Council said £10m had been invested in the link, which will halve travel times to about 50 minutes between the two stations. The service's reinstallation had been the subject of a long campaign, which was supported by Burnley Council, local organisations and charities. Council leader Mark Townsend said the restored link would benefit the local economy and employment, while making the nearby countryside "even easier to reach for visitors". The redevelopment of the Todmorden Curve and Burnley's historic Weavers' Triangle received £8.8 million from the government's Regional Growth Fund in 2011. Celebrations heralding the restored link will be held at Burnley's Manchester Road and Accrington stations on Monday.

The group chained themselves together across the M4 southbound spur road to the west London airport in August 2015. A court heard the protest caused "utter chaos" leading to "a huge amount of stationary traffic" southbound. The nine protesters each denied the charge. They were ordered to pay between £261 and £523 each. Willesden Magistrates Court heard how four protesters held a large banner across the road and chanted "Black Lives Matter". Six others formed a human chain on the ground by linking their arms inside hollowed fire extinguishers filled with wire mesh and concrete. The defendants were: Taylor Offoh, 20, from Penge, had already accepted a caution. Speaking after the conviction Joshua Virasami said the protest had "worked" as it had reignited "a conversation around the violence of institutional racism". The protest marked the fifth anniversary of the death of Mark Duggan who was shot dead by police in Tottenham, sparking riots across England. The Black Lives Matter movement began in the US in 2012 after George Zimmerman was found not guilty of murdering Trayvon Martin in Florida.

Nato said a man in Afghan army uniform and another in civilian clothes opened fire in southern Kandahar province. The dead are believed to be US soldiers. Some local officials say there was only one attacker, a teacher at the base. Hours earlier Nato's top general in Afghanistan said the recent violence was a "setback" that would be overcome. Nato says shots were fired indiscriminately, claiming two of its soldiers' lives. It has yet to give their nationalities, but US and Afghan officials say the dead were Americans. Nato believes one of the killers was an Afghan soldier. If so, this would be the third time in a week that a member of the Afghan security forces has killed Nato troops. What happened is still unclear. An Afghan army spokesman in Kandahar said two gunmen initially opened fire on an Afghan sentry manning a security tower at the base in Zheray district, before climbing it and shooting at Nato troops. He said both attackers were killed. But officials in Zheray district dispute this account and say the attack was carried out by only one man - who apparently lived on the base to teach Afghan soldiers literacy. The local district governor said the man grabbed an Afghan soldier's gun and opened fire. In return, Nato killed both Afghans. The BBC's Bilal Sarwary in Kabul says it is unclear how a teacher was allowed to stay on the base and have access to a weapon. The six Nato personnel are amongst more than 30 people killed since protests erupted last week over the burning of the Koran by US troops at another military base. Troubled flared after US personnel apparently inadvertently put copies of the Koran, which reports say had been confiscated from terror suspects, into a rubbish incinerator at Bagram air base, near Kabul. Muslims consider the Koran the literal word of God and treat each copy with the utmost respect. Responding to the attacks, Nato's commander in Afghanistan, Gen John Allen, said: "We have to understand the significance of the great faith of Islam to these people and we have to account for that. "But it doesn't push the relationship back." He emphasised that over the 10 years of Nato's presence in Afghanistan, "thousands and thousands" of troops had shown "reverence" for the Islamic faith. He also said he would be willing to walk, unarmed, into the Afghan Interior Ministry in Kabul, where two senior Nato military advisers were shot dead on Saturday. Afghan authorities are hunting a 25-year-old Afghan policeman over that shooting. Last Thursday, two US soldiers were shot and killed by a man wearing Afghan army uniform during protests at a Nato base in eastern Nangarhar province. A senior Afghan general told the BBC last week: "The virus of Taliban infiltration and rogue soldiers has spread like a cancer. Curing it has not helped. You need an operation." More than 70 Nato troops have been killed by Afghan colleagues in recent years. The BBC's Orla Guerin in Kabul says that privately, some Nato officials wonder who they can trust. Thursday's deaths in Kandahar came as Nato let a small number of its advisers return to their duties at Afghan ministries, the Associated Press reports.

The man showed the two-week-old animals to a member of the public in an Asda car park in South Woodham Ferrers before making the threat. The RSPCA said the member of the public reacted by taking the piglets away from the man. He kept them for a night before calling animal welfare officers. The organisation said it was thought the piglets might have been stolen. Inspector Steve Craddock appealed for anyone with piglets to check if any are missing. Mr Craddock said: "My initial thought was that these piglets must have been stolen as they are too young to have escaped from a smallholding. "However, I have contacted both the police and Defra and neither have any reports of stolen or missing pigs. "Someone may have not noticed that a couple of piglets from a litter of about 13 have gone. "The piglets can't have been away from their mother for long though - less than 72 hours I would say as, at that age, they would probably have died from dehydration if they had been away from their mother for any longer."

Mr Hickey was being held in relation to alleged mis-selling of tickets for the Olympic Games. A judge in Rio recommended on Monday that Mr Hickey be released from prison and placed under house arrest. The OCI said in a statement on Tuesday that it "welcomes the release of Mr Pat Hickey". In his own statement Mr Hickey confirmed he had been released from prison but would stay in Rio. He said: "My lawyers will proceed to have the charges laid against me set aside as there is no substantive proof of any wrong doing on my part." "I would like to thank the prison authorities for their kindness they have shown to me," he added. "Due to my medical condition, I will be making no further statements." The judge said his release would not "put at risk the public order, or the application of penal law". Precautionary imprisonment He added that precautionary imprisonment can only be used when the maximum time servable for an offence exceeds four years, which is not the case here. Earlier this month, Mr Hickey temporarily stood down from his roles as Olympic Council of Ireland president and European Olympic Committees' president. Mr Hickey, 71, was detained by Brazilian police on Wednesday 17 August but was then taken to hospital for tests after he complained of health problems. He was later transferred to the high-security prison. Irish Sports Minister Shane Ross has ordered an inquiry into the ticketing claims. Three other OCI officials are still in Rio after they had their passports seized by Brazilian police investigating the ticketing scandal. In a statement from the OCI it said that the "three OCI officials are due to have their passports returned over the coming days and we look forward to welcoming Kevin Kilty, Stephen Martin and Dermot Henihan home shortly." The executive committee of the European Olympic Committees has also welcomed the news of Mr Hickey's move to house arrest.

The Cardiff City and Wales player told the Sunday Mirror: "All I know is that my best mate has gone. I'm struggling." Ex-Premier League star Speed was found hanged at his Cheshire home last year. His parents and family members marked what would have been his 43rd birthday on Saturday with a walk up Moel Famau, Denbighshire, near his childhood home. Roger and Carol Speed told Wales on Sunday the family are still coming to terms with his death in November 2011. Bellamy, 33, whose former clubs include Liverpool and Manchester City, told the Sunday Mirror he has moved out of the marital home he shared with his wife Claire and their three children. He said: "Losing my best mate has affected everything. I can't believe how hard it is. "He was the best mate I've ever had. It's sad but unfortunately it got to my marriage. I'm here and she's there. "I don't know if that's it for us. All I know is that my best mate has gone. I'm struggling. I can't lie." Bellamy told the newspaper of his family situation: "I can't tell you how hard it is. It's the worst time in my life ever." Bellamy was part of the Team GB squad at the Olympics, and last month joined Cardiff on a two-year deal from Liverpool. Speed's clubs included Leeds, Newcastle, Everton, and Bolton, and he managed Sheffield United. A coroner at the inquest in January said he could not be satisfied that Speed intended to kill himself.

It comes amid reports of potential buyers for the plant where thousands of jobs are at risk after Tata Steel said it was selling its UK operations. The government says it is ready to offer help to secure a purchase. David Cameron and Carwyn Jones will meet on Tuesday to discuss the situation. It will come a day after assembly members meet to discuss the crisis during a specially-reconvened debate on Monday. Mr Jones has called on the UK government to give the British steel industry the same support given banks during the financial crisis. Writing in The Independent this weekend, Mr Jones said there was "a moral, economic and strategic case" to do the same for steel. Business Secretary Sajid Javid said the government's plan to save the plant - and industry - was to find a commercial buyer for all of Tata's UK businesses. Speaking on the BBC's Andrew Marr show, he said the government's plan to save the plant - and industry - was to find a commercial buyer for all of Tata's UK businesses. "We're going to also have to offer support to eventually clinch that buyer and to give this steel plant a long-term viable future," he said. A source close to steel tycoon Sanjeev Gupta, founder of commodities firm Liberty House, confirmed he had been in contact with the government as a possible buyer for the Port Talbot steelworks, which employs 4,100 people and is said to be losing £1m a day. The source told the BBC the discussions had not been substantive yet, but Mr Gupta is due to arrive in the UK from Dubai this week and would be seeking further talks on the issue. Tata announced plans last week to sell its loss-making UK plants. Unless a buyer can be found, thousands of jobs are at risk. The business directly employs 15,000 workers and supports thousands of others and includes plants in Port Talbot, Rotherham, Corby and Shotton. It also has sites in in Llanwern and Newport, Shotton in Flintshire and Trostre in Llanelli. German steelmaker ThyssenKrupp has also been touted as another potential buyer, according to the Observer. Meanwhile, the UK government said all public sector bodies would be required to think about the impact of using foreign steel for construction projects, in a bid to encourage buying British steel. Ministers have faced criticism for failing to take more action to prevent the "dumping" of cheap Chinese steel - selling it cheaply at a loss - seen as one of the key reasons for the problems in the UK steel industry. The Welsh Government said a task force was already looking at supporting the steel industry through public sector contracts in devolved areas. What's going wrong with Britain's steel industry? Tata Steel UK: What are the options? Is China to blame for steel woes? The Welsh Liberal Democrats say there are still questions for the first minister to answer about the Welsh Government's handling of the situation. They point out that two of the things the steel industry have called for - action on business rates and public sector procurement - are in the hands of Welsh ministers. A Welsh Conservatives spokesman said: "We are pleased to see that the UK government is taking steps to reform procurement rules to give UK steel a fair chance and that is a step the Welsh Government should also consider, along with offering business rate relief." Jonathan Edwards, Plaid Cymru MP for Carmarthen East and Dinefwr, said: "Wales cannot go on with a government with such abject lack of ambition and which is willing to idly stand by rather than stand up for our vital steel industry." Mark Reckless of UKIP Wales added: "The government has done next to nothing to save our steel or protect workers in Part Talbot and beyond."

Liberty has bought an initial 18% of the F1 Group and will become the main shareholder with 35.3% when the deal is completed, due to be in early 2017. Red Bull team boss Christian Horner said: "It sounds very positive. I can't believe a serious group like Liberty would buy F1 without a long-term plan. "Hopefully, they can address some of the weaknesses we have in some areas." Horner singled out F1's struggles to penetrate the US market and exploit digital and social media platforms effectively. His views were echoed by Mercedes F1 boss Toto Wolff, who said: "Christian and I rarely agree, but on this we are 100% on the same page." In remarks that could be interpreted as a swipe at the previous main shareholder CVC Capital Partners, Horner also welcomed the fact that a company with a desire to invest in and develop the sport had become the new owners. "Rather than a venture capitalist buying it, it is far better for the sport that a company like Liberty does," Horner said. And he said it was a good idea to ask Bernie Ecclestone to stay on as chief executive for the foreseeable future, in a deal believed to be for three years. Ecclestone will work alongside F1's new chairman Chase Carey, who has worked closely with media mogul Rupert Murdoch in the past. "We need to understand what's his plan, what's his vision, for how Liberty see F1 for the future," said Horner. "He is going to have to get up to speed. It is great they have come to an agreement with Bernie for him to be involved for some time to come because that intervening period is going to be crucial but then he has to work out what he wants F1 to be in the future." Team bosses also said they supported in theory Liberty's plan to offer the teams a shareholding in F1 in the future. Renault F1 boss Cyril Abiteboul said: "It is a great opportunity. The teams have created a lot of value in F1. It would be a great thing if some of the teams could capture some of the value, so if it makes sense, why not. "It is good we have some long-term stability because its gives us some time to focus son the product, F1 is always a balance between entertainment and sport." Wolff added: "The idea sounds good if you are able to align all major stakeholders with a long-term vision. "If you make the teams shareholders, that would solve a lot of problems but it is a commercial and financial decision and it depends on the detail." Sauber team principal Monisha Kaltenborn said she hoped Liberty would address what many see as the inequitable distribution of income in F1, about which the Swiss team and Force India have lodged an official complaint to the European Union. "I hope they take steps to ensure a certain competitive parity," said Kaltenborn. "That is for us more equally important to how the sport is being promoted to the outside."

Outside it was a gloriously sunny winter's day. The mountains that loom above the city silhouetted against a cloudless blue sky. But inside the house was dark and the curtains drawn, so that the neighbours could not see in. This was the safe house in Kabul where Gulnaz and her child had found refuge. The women there asked not to be identified in case their house was burnt down. Just 21, Gulnaz had been released that week from prison, where she had given birth to her daughter Moska. Gulnaz seemed younger than her years, but she held my gaze almost defiantly as she told her story. She had been imprisoned in a Kabul women's jail after her cousin's husband raped her. The crime came to light when the unmarried Gulnaz became pregnant. The police came and arrested both Gulnaz and her attacker. Under Afghan law she too was found guilty of a crime known as "adultery by force", with her sentence increased on appeal to 12 years. Listen to the BBC Radio 4 version Download the podcast Listen to the BBC World Service version Explore the archive When the case aroused condemnation abroad, President Hamid Karzai intervened and Gulnaz was pardoned. Looking bewildered at her sudden freedom, she told me all she wanted was to go home to her family. In order to do that, she was prepared to marry the man who raped her - otherwise their families would be enemies. The problem for Gulnaz is that if her attacker will not marry her - or cannot come up with a substantial dowry - the "stain" on her family's honour will remain, perhaps with lethal consequences for Gulnaz and her child. That may mean she can never go home. For a single mother, unskilled and unqualified, there are few ways for a woman to survive in Afghanistan without family support. An American lawyer in Kabul, Kim Motley, has taken up Gulnaz's case. She is trying to raise money for her to fund a new life, somehow, somewhere, if Gulnaz cannot go home. Rescued from violence I was still wondering what would happen to her when we went to meet 15-year-old Sahar Gul, as she lay in a hospital bed recovering from her injuries, too traumatised to talk. Married off to a 30-year-old man for a dowry of about $4,500 (£3,000), Sahar had been kept locked in a cellar for several months, starved and tortured by her husband and his family. It is still not really clear why. Sahar may not have been able to speak, but her injuries did. Burns to her arm and her fragile body, a swollen black eye, clumps of hair torn out. One small hand was scarred, where her fingernail had been pulled out. The abuse aroused public indignation in Afghanistan, as well as horror abroad. But Sahar was perhaps, in a strange way, lucky. She did not run away from a violent marriage, as some Afghan brides have, but was instead rescued from it by police. So she cannot be found guilty of what might otherwise be deemed a "moral crime", as other young Afghan women have been. Both Sahar and Gulnaz's stories are extreme. But they made me wonder how many other women in Afghanistan still suffer in silence, 10 years after the fall of the Taliban. There are laws banning violence against women, but enforcing them is hard. Tradition and family or community honour is often seen as more important than an individual's misery or misfortune. Poverty and lack of education also mean under-age marriage remains common. When Sahar did try to escape her torturers, it was apparently the neighbours who brought her back to them, before the police intervened. In a quiet, book-lined office in Kabul - a world away from the controlled chaos of the hospital and the dimly-lit safe house - I asked the head of the Afghan Independent Human Rights Commission what she thought. A no-nonsense woman with steely grey hair, Dr Sima Samar has long risked her own life to speak out for the principles she believes in, equality and justice. Her answer was clear: She and her colleagues in Afghanistan will carry on fighting to improve the lives of women like Gulnaz and Sahar. But Dr Samar, like many others, fears the international community is no longer quite so interested in keeping up the pressure on women's rights, as the West seeks to wind down its military campaign. When Western soldiers no longer patrol the streets of Afghanistan, it will be easier to ignore what goes on behind locked doors and closed curtains in a faraway place.  How to listen to From Our Own Correspondent: BBC Radio 4: A 30-minute programme on Saturdays, 11:30 GMT.

Mick Fanning was competing in Jeffreys Bay, on the eastern Cape, when one of the sharks approached his surfboard. The final of the J-Bay Open had only just started when Fanning was knocked off his surfboard and into the sea. Fanning, the defending champion, escaped injury. The tournament was called off soon afterwards. "I was just sitting there and I felt something just get stuck in my leg rope, and I was kicking trying to get it away," Fanning told Fox Sports. "I just saw fins. I was waiting for the teeth." Fanning, a three-time world champion, said he was able to "get a punch into its back" and startle it. Can science stop sharks attacking humans? Australian firm develops 'shark-proof' wetsuits The event was being broadcast live on television. Footage later cut to Fanning and co-competitor Julian Wilson, also of Australia, on a rescue boat reliving the incident. The relieved-looking pair then received loud applause from a crowd on the beach. "I was swimming in and I had this thought what if it comes for another go at me? So I turned around, so I could at least see it, and before I knew it the boat was there, the jet-skis were there, the jet-skis were there. I just can't believe it," he told journalists who were at the competition. Fanning's mother said she was terrified when she saw the live footage. Speaking from her home on Australia's Gold Coast, Liz Osborne told the Australian Broadcasting Corp it was "the worst thing I've ever seen happen to any of my family because it was just there in front of me". Her son Sean was killed in the car accident in 1998 but the family were not with him at the time. "I saw this just in front of me. It was just terrible," Ms Osborne said. "I was so scared. I just thought when that wave came through that he'd gone," she said. The World Surf League (WSL), which organises the competition, said Fanning was approached by two sharks, and that he and Wilson were both rescued from the water by jet-skis. A video of the incident can be seen on the WSL's website here and the aftermath of the attack can be viewed here. Reuters says the waters are some of the most shark-infested in the world, and that a surfer was killed by a Great White shark close to Jeffreys Bay in 2013.

Finance Minister Michael Noonan said given the uncertainty, it was important to continue policies for economic growth, job creation and debt control. The low VAT rate for the hospitality industry would continue, as would the 12.5% corporation tax, he said. Ireland's economic growth forecast for next year has been cut to 3.5%. However, Mr Noonan said that despite the downgrade, the Irish economy was in good shape, growing strongly and should continue to grow over the coming years. The finance minister told the Dáil, the Irish parliament, that the only tax increase was 50 cents on cigarettes, taking the price of a packet of 20 to 11 euros (£10). He said the government was introducing "economic shock absorbers" and announced plans to establish a "rainy day fund" of up to a billion euros per year when the Irish budget goes into surplus in 2018. "Whatever the final settlement, what we know with certainty is that Brexit has increased risk to the Irish economy and, as well as introducing specific measures to assist particular sectors of the economy, we must also put in place safety nets to protect us against future economic shocks," he said. Minister for Public Expenditure Paschal Donohoe told the parliament he was proposing 4,500 new front-line service jobs including Gardaí (Irish police), nurses and teachers. He also told the Dáil that from March 2017, those getting old age pensions and weekly social welfare would get five euros (£4.50) a week increase. This was the first budget since the formation of the new Fine Gael-led government which includes independents as ministers and is reliant on the support of Fianna Fáil, the main opposition party, for its survival. Fianna Fáil's finance spokesman Michael McGrath said his party did not get everything it wanted in the budget but that it was much fairer because of his party's input. "While we didn't write this budget - from the outside - we influenced it as best we could in the direction of a fairer and more decent Ireland - and we make no apologies for that," he said. He described government proposals to increase the budgets for government departments and state agencies to deal with Brexit as "pathetic".

When the auctioneer at Kilrea Livestock Mart asked the farmers around the busy sales ring who would be voting in the 2017 assembly election - no hands went up. That was not very surprising in a constituency which had one of the lowest turnouts in the last assembly election just eight months ago. Only half the electorate voted in East Londonderry. "I voted last time, but I won't be this time, enough is enough," said one farmer who didn't want to give his name because he has a biomass boiler at home. He wasn't alone. "I think we are all wasting our time to be honest, how far are we on from the last elections?" said another farmer in the makeshift shed which doubles as a cafe. "Our politicians spend their time fighting with one another, what have they done for us? Nothing." Sean McCauley, from Farmers for Action, said morale in the industry was very low. "Everywhere we look we have problems," he said. "Education, health, infrastructure and farming are all in a crisis. "With Brexit and all the uncertainty it brings, the last thing we need now is to be without a government." Turnout in assembly elections has been on the slide - it dropped by 15% in the past 19 years. In the poll last May, 54% of the electorate turned out to vote. North Down had the lowest turnout at 49%. "The question is, will the non-voters be galvanised? Or will the trend of a decreasing turnout continue?" asked commentator Gerry Murray. "The people who have been voting are the hard core in each party, the centre ground has just faded away. "The other big factor is the drop in seats from 108 down to 90. With one seat less in each constituency, a number of big names could fall and it's very much a question of fighting within parties, rather than between parties, for seats." In Sion Mills, County Tyrone, pensioner Georgina McClintock has voted in every election in Northern Ireland for 50 years. But she says many of her friends are disillusioned with politics and won't be voting. "I think it's awful as there is nothing to say. When this election is over we will get things sorted out and we may have to go for another election. It's disgusting what is happening," she said. "People are sick and fed up with our politicians fighting and squabbling, and it's no wonder people don't want to vote."

Som meningsmålinger går det var ikke den mest vitenskapelige, men det var veldig avslørende.

An award-winning reporter who had fearlessly chronicled Mexico's deadly drug trade, he remarked at his book launch last year that being a journalist "is like being on a blacklist". The government's promises of protection are next to worthless if the cartels decide they want you dead. As Valdez put it: "Even though you may have bullet-proofing and bodyguards, [the gangs] will decide what day they are going to kill you." The 50-year-old was dragged from his car and shot dead on Monday, in Culiacan city, Sinaloa, where he lived and worked. Over a three-decade career, Valdez founded the Ríodoce newspaper in Sinaloa, the north-western state blighted by Joaquin "El Chapo" Guzman's powerful drug cartel. He was also a correspondent for the national newspaper La Jornada, and the author of several books, including Los Morros del Narco [The Children of the Drug Trade], which followed young people through Mexico's bloody underworld. In public, he often spoke of the risks facing reporters in Mexico, which has one of the world's least free presses. His words illustrate both the cost of printing the truth, and the bravery of those who continue to do so. Last month, Valdez told the freedom of expression organisation Index on Censorship that a hand grenade had been thrown into Ríodoce's offices in 2009 - but had "only caused material damages". "I've had phone calls telling me to stop investigating certain murders or drug bosses. I've had to suppress important information because they could have my family killed if I mention it," he said. "Sources of mine have been killed or disappeared… The government couldn't care less. They do nothing to protect you. There have been many cases and this keeps happening." According to the Committee to Protect Journalists (CPJ), at least 40 journalists have been murdered in Mexico since 1992. The journalist's brother Rafael Valdez told Agence France-Presse that he had tried not to expose loved ones to the hazards of his profession. "He was very reserved when it came to his work," Rafael said. "He never talked about it so as not to drag people into it. "I asked him several times whether he was afraid. He said yes, he was a human being. So I asked him why he risked his life, and he replied: 'It is something I like doing, and someone has to do it. You have to fight to change things.'" Sometimes, reporters are forced to flee Mexico under threat of death - knowing they will be murdered if they ever return. "Now they must be content seeing their homes through the internet. They have been banished from their families for the rest of their lives," Valdez told Revista Desocupado [in Spanish]. In March, Valdez's colleague Miroslava Breach - a crime correspondent for La Jornada - was killed by being shot eight times in front of one of her children. The gunmen left a note saying: "For being a loudmouth." Valdez raged against her death on Twitter, writing: "Let them kill us all, if that's the death sentence for reporting this hell. Not to silence." Other Mexican journalists killed in 2017 include freelancers Maximino Rodríguez and Cecilio Pineda Birto, CPJ records show. Mexico's violent cartels are well known for using informants. While researching his book Narcoperiodismo [Narco Journalism], Valdez realised that local newspapers were being regularly infiltrated by gang spies. "Serious journalism with ethics is very important in times of conflict, but unfortunately there are journalists who are involved with narcos," he told Index on Censorship. "This has made our work much more complicated, and now we have to protect ourselves from politicians, narcos and even other journalists." In Narco Journalism, he describes how reporters are exiled, murdered, corrupted, terrorised by the cartels, or betrayed by police or politicians in the pay of the gangs. He told Revista Desocupado: "It is not only about the criminal drugs trade, now they kidnap, extort; they have control of the sale of arms, beer, taxis; they control hospitals, police officers, the army, people in the government and those who finance them. The omnipresent narco is everywhere." Valdez felt frustrated and alone in his fight to keep an independent newspaper running. "I don't see a society that stands by its journalists or protects them," he said. "At Ríodoce we don't have any support from business owners to finance projects. If we went bankrupt and shut down nobody would do anything [to help]. We have no allies." He feared his newspaper would not outlast this apathy. "We need more publicity, subscriptions and moral support - but we're on our own. We're not going to survive much longer in these circumstances." For Valdez, Mexico had become accustomed to death, evil and abuses - a nation resigned to serial murder, because acceptance is easier than fighting. But as recently as two months ago he was determined to persevere, telling an interviewer: "Inside me there is a pessimistic bastard, distressed and sometimes sullen, who feels like a somewhat bitter old man with watery eyes, who is bothered by having his solitude spoiled. But he dreams. I have an idea of another country, for my family and other Mexicans, that does not continue to fall into an abyss from which there may be no return." Mexico's President Enrique Peña Nieto has condemned Valdez's killing as an "outrageous crime", and said his government remained committed to press freedom. Last week, Mexico appointed a new prosecutor to investigate crimes against freedom of expression - including the murder of journalists. Sinaloa state attorney general Juan Jose Rios said Valdez's shooting was under investigation. He promised the authorities would protect Valdez's relatives and colleagues, telling reporters: "Above all else, we are interested in Javier's family."

They used a phone scam to make her believe she was talking first to a Visa fraud investigator and then detectives. The 75-year-old from Lancing ended up drawing out the maximum amount of cash she could and handing it over. Det Con Jennie Hutchinson said people needed to be aware of such scams and to be vigilant. Such incidents are called courier fraud or telephone scams and Sussex Police have said they are becoming increasingly common, with the elderly and vulnerable often targeted. Fraudsters call the intended victim claiming to be the police or a bank and tell them their card has been fraudulently used and they must act urgently to protect themselves. They suggest the victim hangs up and a ring a fictional phone number - which they claim is for the bank or police - to ensure the call is genuine. But the scammers stay on the line and hand their phone to an accomplice posing as a police officer or bank employee. They then tell victims to key in or read out their PIN number and then send a courier or taxi to collect the card - giving them full access to the account. Recent variations - as in the Lancing incident - have seen victims asked to withdraw large sums of money and take it home where it is collected. Det Con Hutchinson said the woman believed she was handing her cash to a courier on Tuesday. The first man she spoke to told her he was from the Visa Special Investigation Fraud Team, and he passed her to another person who said she was a police constable, and a third person who said they were a detective. The man who collected the money was described as Asian in his late teens with a slim build and short hair, wearing a dark body warmer and jeans. Anyone who has information is urged to contact the force.

As first reported in the Eastern Daily Press, volunteers at Felbrigg Hall in Norfolk have been asked to wear rainbow-coloured badges and lanyards in support of an LGBTQ campaign. But 10 of the 350 volunteers at Felbrigg have chosen not to wear them. A new film said Felbrigg's last lord, Robert Wyndham Ketton-Cremer, was gay. Annabel Smith, head of volunteering and participation development at the National Trust, said: "All of our staff and volunteers sign up to our founding principles when they join us - we are an organisation that is for ever, for everyone. "We are committed to developing and promoting equality of opportunity and inclusion in all that we do." As part of the National Trust's Prejudice and Pride campaign, and in conjunction with research done by the University of Leicester, a new film revealed Mr Wyndham Ketton-Cremer's sexuality, which was known by close friends. The campaign is being run to mark 50 years since homosexuality was decriminalised in 1967, two years before Mr Wyndham Ketton-Cremer's death. One long-term volunteer, who asked not to be named, said: "It's very upsetting. We are like a family and this feels like a break up. I don't think Felbrigg will be the same again." She said she did not think the film should have been made because Robert Wyndham Ketton-Cremer was "a private man". The volunteer said she had not seen the film but had heard "it was distasteful". Some volunteers at the 17th Century country house have chosen to take a break from all duties during the Trust's summer programme, while others have taken up the option to move into backroom roles. Ms Smith said: "Whilst volunteering for the National Trust we do request and expect individuals to uphold the values of the organisation. "We encourage people with any concerns to chat to our teams."

It said the US company is withholding information from customers, and making them wait too long for repairs. Which? said some owners were having to wait up to 12 weeks, just to obtain a customer ID. The company said there were inconsistencies in the report, but it would investigate the issues raised. The BBC has previously reported that customers are having to wait up to 11 months in total for repairs to be carried out. The fires have been caused by excess fluff, which can catch on the heating element. Some five million affected machines have been sold in the UK, under the Creda, Indesit and Hotpoint brands. Which? used a series of mystery shopper calls to test responses from Whirlpool. It found that customers were repeatedly told to take up the problem with the retailer who had sold them the machine. When they did so, consumers were re-directed back to Whirlpool. Many owners were faced with the choice of lengthy delays for a repair, or else paying for a replacement at a reduced price. Some were told by Whirlpool staff that it would take eight to twelve weeks just to be given a customer ID - something Which? said could have been done at the touch of a button. "Whirlpool customers rightly feel dissatisfied with how they've been treated, being faced with delays, confusion and a lack of information," said Alex Neill, director of policy and campaigns at Which? "Whirlpool must clean up their act and sort this mess out," she said. Which? has also called on Whirlpool to list all 127 affected model numbers on its website, rather than the model checker which is currently available. In response, the company said there were "a number of inconsistencies" in the Which? report. However it promised to investigate any instances which were inconsistent with its "high standards." In a statement it said, "Whirlpool's response to the tumble dryer issue is at an unprecedented level, and our staff are working round-the-clock to ensure we're able to resolve the matter as quickly as possible for our customers." It was continually looking at ways of speeding up the repair process, it said. However Which? is calling on the government to intervene, to close the "loopholes that allow companies to leave consumers without the basic information and advice they need."

Chelsea's N'Golo Kante picked up the PFA Player Of The Year Award last night. It's one of the highest awards in English football and is voted for by players, former players and coaches. He only joined Chelsea this season after starring for Leicester City last year. He beat Chelsea teammate Eden Hazard and Manchester United's Zlatan Ibrahimnovic to take the prize. But we want to know - who is the the best player YOU'VE seen this season, and why? Your comments I think Philippe Coutinho the Liverpool left winger Logan, Kent Chris Wood - he scored 25 goals and he is the top goal scorer Shaan, Sheffield I think it should be Christian Eriksen from Tottenham Hotspur for his super assists! But I am an Arsenal fan! Jed, Derbyshire I think Alexis Sanchez because he really helps Arsenal with scoring and is a good team mate to have Erika, Essex I think Harry Kane should win it because he's my favourite football player Kerry, East Grinstead The best premier league football player is Sanchez from Arsenal Wilf, Oxfordshire We think that the best player in the Premiership this year is Eden Hazard from Chelsea.

Many expats see it as a land of opportunity. Some come to make their fortune, others simply to get a job often unavailable at home. Meanwhile, more Emiratis are joining the workforce to shape the future of their country. The BBC's Amandeep Bhangu meets five people living in Abu Dhabi to hear about their working lives. Hamda al-Qubaisi represents a new wave of working Emiratis. Aged 26, she is a first officer for Etihad Airways and regularly piloting an Airbus A320 on short-haul flights around the region. Like many of her compatriots who have shared in their country's vast oil wealth, she has no need to work, but she says: "I want to work. I want to give back to my country because they've given so much to me." She spotted an advert in a newspaper for trainee pilots, applied and was accepted for Etihad's training scheme, which is fully paid for by the government. "I couldn't have become a pilot without this funding," she says. "If it was based abroad I don't think my family would've allowed it. "I just applied to tease my brothers. I told them that I wanted to be a pilot and they said you cannot do it. So from that point I thought I have to do it, I have to prove that they're wrong." Aviation is a key part of the government's goals to diversify the economy beyond oil dependency. The UAE is riding a boom in long-haul travel, particularly between Asia and the West, providing a prime stopover. Dubai is now the busiest airport in the world but Abu Dhabi is home to the national carrier, Etihad one of the world's fastest-growing airlines. The more challenging part for Ms al-Qubaisi has been making her way in a male-dominated working industry "I always do double the effort of my male colleagues to show them I can do the job. Eventually I want to be a captain. I love flying. Everyday there's a different view." Another Emirati woman on the move is Shaikha Mohammad al-Kaabi, a business developer by day who was driven by her passion for Emirati food to set up a food truck to entice visitors away from the city's five-star restaurants. "I realised when people come on holiday to Abu Dhabi they don't try Emirati food, and even when you ask people who live here what their favourite Emirati food is, they often name Middle Eastern or Lebanese food," says the 33-year-old. Last November she established Meylas, a food truck restaurant that serves Emirati snacks. Customers use social media to find out where it is and can tuck into dishes inspired by her mother's and grandmother's recipes. She comes from a wealthy and influential Abu Dhabi family but insists her work is her life. "I couldn't exist without working. It's important to me. I want to prove myself to my parents. And as Emiratis we want to prove ourselves to the outside world, which thinks we live off our family and country's wealth. "But if you come here, you'll see we work and we are happy to share our home and culture with those that move here." In fact, the name of her business captures this spirit. Meylas is a local expression that means "a place to gather, akin to a living room". Dorian Paul Rogers moved from the United States to Abu Dhabi in 2011, as one of the millions of expats who come to the UAE for better work opportunities. A teacher by profession, he says his real passion is organising cultural events. Three years ago he started Rooftop Rhythms, a poetry and music open-mic evening that tapped into the growing grassroots cultural scene. What began as a monthly event evidently hit a chord with expats and Emiratis, and is now one of the biggest poetry open-mic events in the Middle East. "Now I'm running several events throughout the month, from Arabic poetry to soul-and-blues nights, and I just hosted an international poetry festival," Mr Rogers says, adding that he has decided to give up teaching and do this full-time. "I couldn't have dreamed of the success I would see in the UAE." As someone who has toured the world, he says Rooftop Rhythms is one of the most diverse events he has seen as regards the nationalities of performers and those attending. Mr Rogers, reflecting on his experiences of organising and performing at such events in the US, says there are differences. His events have "a few rules to make sure we are aligned with the UAE's appropriateness" guidelines. Each performer is aware that offensive language, vulgarity, speech on politics involving the UAE, or promotion of any religion besides Islam will not be tolerated. But he does not feel compromised as an organiser or as a spoken-word artist himself. "I moved to the UAE with the idea that I was a humble guest ready to adapt to a new society and culture. When you visit anyone's home, there are house rules that you must follow. There's still plenty of scope for artists without a need to be offensive." With 80% of residents in the UAE coming from abroad, expats fall into many categories. There are plenty of bankers and others who go to work in a suit but there are also people such as Elsa Fortuna Callado, a taxi driver who came to the UAE from the Philippines five years ago. "The money is much better here and there weren't enough jobs back home," she says. "Here I earn tax-free and the tips are really good, so I can save up enough to send back home." Her day usually starts around 7am because many of her regular customers are families with children to drop off to school. She sees her friends during her lunch break, before the afternoon school run starts. "I like my job because I get to talk to lots of people every day and there is no boss," she says. "I am my own boss." She also has a lot of single female passengers. "They prefer a female driver, especially for long journeys," she adds. Her company requires her to wear a shayla as part of her uniform, as she must cover her hair if there is a man in the taxi. Away from work, Ms Fortuna Callado spends time with friends, visits her local Catholic church - next to a mosque - and spends time with her sister and cousin, who also work in Abu Dhabi. They share a small apartment together. Relaxation sometimes takes her to her favourite Filipino restaurant in the backstreets of the Old City. This is the alternative side of Abu Dhabi, away from the glitzy five-star hotels, that most tourists do not see but which is popular with those in the know who want international cuisine at cheap prices. "It's proper home cooking and reminds us of back home," she says. Hamza Kazim is a senior figure in the Masdar Institute, an Abu Dhabi organisation whose ambition is to advance the clean energy industry not just in the capital of the UAE but "around the world". He is certainly in the right place. The car-free environment of Masdar, powered by the sun and cooled by wind, is working to become the world's most sustainable low-carbon city. "I was here when it was just sand, and I've watched it grow in front of my eyes," says Mr Kazim, who is Masdar's head of finance and operations. Masdar, designed by the London-based sustainable architecture practice Foster + Partners, combines 21st Century engineering with traditional desert architecture to deliver zero-carbon comfort. "The compact design of these narrow streets, based on ancient Arab cities, provides shade to pedestrians and funnels breezes through them so it's much cooler here than within the cities of Dubai and Abu Dhabi," he says. The town, due to be completed in 2025, will eventually be home to 50,000 people. It relies entirely on solar, wind and other renewable energy sources, and a desalinisation plant will provide water, 80% of which will be recycled. Biological waste will be turned into fertiliser. "I'm really excited about the cutting-edge discoveries we're working on here that could revolutionise medicine and science, not just renewable energy technology," says Mr Kazim. "People don't often see these types of ideas coming from the Arab world, so it's great that we can be a platform for this." Working Lives is part of UAE Direct a season of features online and on BBC World News about the United Arab Emirates.

Edith Morley was appointed Professor of English Language at the University of Reading in 1908. After a student-led campaign, the Humanities and Social Sciences Building has now been named the Edith Morley Building. It was renamed after an annual lecture named in Prof Morley's honour. The decision to rename the HumSS building - known as 'the maze' by students due to its complicated layout - was made thanks to a campaign by the Reading University Students' Union (RUSU) in 2015. The University's Ethics Board "felt strongly that the change of name would serve as a fitting memorial to one of the university's most influential academics". Prof Morley is believed to be the first woman appointed to a chair at a British university-level institution, after becoming English professor at University College Reading (now the University of Reading). In her autobiography, she described the appointment as "my contribution to the battle for fair dealing for women in public and professional life". Penny Mordaunt MP officially unveiled the renamed building after giving the annual Edith Morley Lecture, held annually to celebrate her achievements in the field. The Portsmouth North MP said she was "very honoured" to help rename the building. Who was Edith Morley?

Well those were the humble beginnings of Lagan College, Northern Ireland's first planned integrated school 36 years ago. The reasons why and how the college gave rise to the integrated education system are the focus of a new BBC Radio Ulster documentary. The programme, All Children Together: The Story of Lagan College, reunites past pupils, teachers and parents to relive the highs and lows of those early days. On 1 September 1981, 28 boys and girls from both sides of Northern Ireland's divide walked through the gates of Ardnavally Scout Hall on the outskirts of south Belfast. This was no ordinary first day at school. The pupils were part of what was then considered a radical idea to educate Protestant and Catholic children under one roof. A brave move, given that 1981 was a year of deep division with more than 100 Troubles-related deaths, tense Anglo-Irish talks and the H-block hunger strikes. Throughout the 1970s a determined group of parents in a movement called "All Children Together" had campaigned relentlessly for integrated education. After years of some success but also frustration, they decided at a public meeting in March 1981 to set up a new school. The problem was they had no premises, little money and were not eligible for government funding for at least three years. That was when the Scout Association stepped in and the makeshift school was created. Brian Lambkin was Lagan College's only full-time teacher at the beginning. "It was a real scramble that year," he said. "The principal wasn't appointed until May and I wasn't appointed until the end of June, beginning of July. "The school I worked in before was very kind about donating books. We also scrambled the furniture together from somewhere. The basic materials were just about in place before we started." Lagan College's first principal, Sheila Greenfield, who is now in her 80s and living in England, praised the pupils' parents for going above and beyond in those early days to keep the school going. "I had them cleaning the building, supervising lunch, running a morning break tuck shop and they were even driving their cars all over for us [transporting pupils]," she said. For those first 28 students, one of the more unusual things they had to face was constantly being in the media spotlight. This was because of the intense interest in a school that was seen to be challenging the educational norm of the time. Founding pupil Richard Sherry says Lagan College was, and in his view still is, Northern Ireland's most famous school. He remembers an event held just days before it opened, when news crews filmed the students and did interviews. "We had a picnic at the Giant's Ring [on the outskirts of south Belfast]. Myself and others were asked to bring our uniforms and there was a famous picture taken that day - the first of Lagan's new pupils," he said. He said it was an opportunity for the press to get a photo so they would not turn up on the first day of school and cause disruption, but they could not stay away. As Northern Ireland's only integrated school back then, pupils had to travel far and wide to get there. Green Party MLA Clare Bailey was one of the founding students. At the time she lived in a mixed housing estate in Antrim and, with her sister, did a four-hour round trip to Ardnavally everyday. Given that the Troubles, road checkpoints and police searches were the norm in 1981, Ms Bailey recalls the Lagan College minibus often being targeted because of what the school stood for. "Other schools and their pupils, on main arterial routes, would have bricked the bus. I remember the drivers could obviously see people gathering down the street and knowing that we were going to be attacked," she said. "They told everybody to lie on the floor while they had to drive through the bus being pelted with stones and bricks. It turned into a sport sometimes I think." Yet despite incidents like this, Ms Bailey said Lagan College's first 28 pupils, wherever they came from and whatever their religious background, formed a crucial bond and became a "gang of friends". In those early days Lagan College garnered much support but also faced opposition from the Catholic Church, Catholic educationalists and many within the predominantly Protestant state school sector. PJ O'Grady is a former school principal of St Patrick's College in north Belfast and back in 1981, he was teaching at a school on the Falls Road. While he aligned himself with Lagan College's all-ability, non-selection ethos, he agreed with little else. "We, in the Catholic sector, and other churches, we go back centuries in educating people and I was just concerned there was a lack of depth in what integrated education was about," he said. "Yes it was bringing people together but was that the main strand of their philosophy of education? Or is education not more important and profound than that?" From 28 pupils in 1981, to more than 1,200 in 2017, many of those involved in setting up Lagan College said it was pivotal to the growth of integrated education in Northern Ireland. Tony Spencer, a founding parent, believes it was a catalyst for change. "Without those [first] parents, without the courage they showed, it [Lagan College] wouldn't be here today and there wouldn't be well over 60 integrated schools here." And as for its legacy 36 years on, past pupil Ms Bailey said it was simple. "Lagan College wasn't just a school, it was a grassroots movement. That sense of DIY, that people could do this for themselves, we didn't need somebody else to give it to us." All Children Together: The Story of Lagan College airs on BBC Radio Ulster at 12:30 GMT on Sunday 12 March.

The move follows a monitoring programme by Caerphilly council of 7,000 randomly-selected homes which found only 38% were recycling. Over the next few weeks, council officials will go to 80,000 homes in a bid to increase that figure. The authority said 7,000 tonnes of food waste was not being recycled. Councillor Nigel George, cabinet member for community and leisure services, said: "If every household participated in recycling food waste, the council could save nearly £200,000 a year which could go towards protecting other frontline services." The Welsh Government has set targets which require councils to recycle at least 64% of all waste collected by 2019-20 and 70% by 2024-25. Failure to do so could lead to significant fines of up to £1m being imposed on councils.
