New Year anti-smoking campaign highlights cancer risks

anti drugs crime reporter(weastar times/WP/guardian)::::
government is looking to capitalise on the British penchant for making health-related New Year resolutions with a hard-hitting £3m ad campaign designed to shock smokers into quitting.
The Department of Health's campaign, developed by agency Dare, marks a return to the shock advertising tactics employed eight years ago to directly target smokers.
The campaign has been developed on the back of research which shoes that more than a third of smokers still believe that the health risks associated with smoking are "greatly exaggerated".
In the campaign, which will run on TV, posters and billboards and online, a cigarette a smoker is inhaling is seen transformed into a cancerous looking growth.
"It is extremely worrying that people still underestimate the serious health harms associated with smoking," says Professor Dame Sally Davies.
In recent years the DoH has focused on ad campaigns showing what the secondary damage of smoking is – to children, friends and family of smokers – but it has been eight years since advertising has directly targeted smokers themselves.
The new campaign will run for nine weeks, part of an estimated £10m annual ad spend by the DoH.
Ad agency Dare recently launched a stop smoking initiative in October – called Stoptober – which saw over 270,000 people signing up to quit.
Research has shown that if smokers can be made to stop for a month they have up to five times more chance of successfully giving up for good.

London Underground cleaners to strike over pay!!!

anti -refugee border control reporter(weastar times/WP/Ebc):::

London Underground station cleaners are to go on strike next week in a dispute over pay, their union has said.

The Rail Maritime and Transport (RMT) union said members working for Initial and ISS contractors would walk out for 48 hours from 05:30 GMT on 31 December.
The announcement comes after Tube drivers went on strike on Boxing Day in a row over bank holiday pay.
Much of the Tube network was disrupted on the first day of the post-Christmas sales.
The RMT's general secretary Bob Crow said the cleaners were doing "some of the dirtiest jobs" on minimum pay.
London Underground urged the parties involved to resolve the dispute without strike action.
'Normal' services Mr Crow said the cleaners were working "in often appalling conditions with no proper recognition and reward whatsoever".
"It is these same staff who have played a key role in keeping services clean and safe who are now forced again by their employers to take action for a living wage and recognition of their efforts," he said.
"It is time for London Mayor Boris Johnson to stop talking about a living wage and start acting to make sure that contractors on his services actually deliver it."
Philip Hufton from London Underground said: "This is a dispute between ISS, Initial and the RMT which we urge all parties to resolve without any unnecessary strike action.
"London Underground will be operating as normal during the planned industrial action and we do not anticipate any impact on train services."
He said that Transport for London fully supported the mayor's London Living Wage, which was increased to £8.55 per hour in November.
"All cleaners directly employed by TfL are paid at least the London Living wage, and we require contractors working on the Tube network for London Underground and Tube Lines to do the same," he said.
The Boxing Day strike by drivers caused massive disruption to the Tube network.
Nine lines ran limited services, while the Piccadilly line operated a shuttle service between Heathrow terminals and Hammersmith, and between Arnos Grove and Cockfosters.
The Docklands Light Railway operated in parts but not between Canning Town and Beckton or Shadwell and Bank.
There was no service on London Overground.

Michael Polding death: Police investigate website leads

crime reporter,sussex(weastar times/WP/Ebc):::

Detectives are following new leads after a website was created to help trace a suspect over the unsolved murder of a Brighton man.

The body of Michael Polding, 63, was found at his flat in July, and may have been there for two months.
A post-mortem examination found Mr Polding suffered a number of injuries.
Last week police set up a website to trace his friend Ricardo Pisano, also known as Brandon Victor Pillay, who is wanted in connection with the death.
South African accent Det Insp Jon Fanner, of Surrey and Sussex Major Crime Team, said: "I would like to thank the members of the public who have taken the time to connect Sussex Police with information about Ricky.
"We are following up these leads, however at this time Ricky is still being sought and I would appeal for anyone who knows Ricky or knows where he may be to contact Sussex Police."
Sussex Police has also offered a £5,000 reward for information leading to the arrest of Mr Pisano, who is also known as Ricky and Ree.
He is thought to be aged in his 30s and has a South African accent.
He is believed to have walked out of an open prison in New Zealand 10 years ago after being convicted of fraud offences.
Police believe he was the last person to see Mr Polding alive.

Former Hunstanton teacher John Redman jailed for sex offences

crime+child pornography control reporter(weastar times/Ebc/WP):::A former teacher has been jailed for sex offences after a court heard he was a danger to children.

John Redman, 52, was found guilty at Norwich Crown Court of sexually assaulting a boy of 14 and of breaching a sexual offences prevention order.
The court heard Redman, of Kempe Road in West Lynn, Norfolk, touched the boy after employing him to do odd jobs.
Jailing Redman for 12 months, Recorder Katharine Moore told him: "You present a high risk of harm to children."
Redman, who had taught science at Smithdon High School, Hunstanton, was convicted in November of sexual assault and three offences of having unsupervised contact with the victim and another boy.

He was in breach of a sexual offences prevention order imposed by the same court in April 2011 after he admitted three sex offences against a teenage boy.

That order prevented him from having unsupervised contact with boys aged under 16.
Chris Youell, prosecuting, said the assault, which took place on 31 July, had had a "quite profound" effect on Redman's victim.
"He has had to stop working in the area; he has lost trust in people, particularly men; he gets anxious and upset and finds it difficult to sleep," he said.
"There has been a lot of stress in the family home."
'In denial' When Redman was sentenced in April 2011, he was also ordered to undergo a sex offender treatment programme but the court heard it had been cancelled and Redman had never attended.
Neil Guest, mitigating, said had Redman attended the course, it could have prevented further offences.
"He has finally accepted that there is a difficulty he must address. Hitherto, he had been in denial," he said.
He asked that Redman be given a suspended sentence and again be put on a treatment programme.
But the recorder said Redman was not a first-time offender and only a custodial sentence was appropriate.
"It is perfectly plain that in seeking your own sexual gratification, you paid no heed at all to the young man's wishes, emotional development and his future," she told him.
"You just thought of yourself and your own needs."
The new sexual offences prevention order bans Redman from contact with any boy under 16.

Kevin Lavelle murder: Police in Pontypridd over Banbury killing

crime +law reporter,oxford:::Murder hunt detectives are visiting south Wales in the hunt for the killer of a man attacked outside an Oxfordshire pub eight years ago.

Police, who are offering a £25,000 reward, are handing out posters in Pontypridd after the death in 2004 of Kevin Lavelle, 29.
He was attacked outside a pub in Grimsbury, Banbury, after he was in an argument with several Welshmen.
A father-of-two of Bootle, Merseyside, he was attacked with an iron dumbbell.

End Quote Det Insp Steve Duffy Thames Valley Police

An inquest ruled in 2009 that he was unlawfully killed outside the Cricketer's pub where a group of men from south Wales had been staying.

"We strongly suspect that the person responsible lives in the south Wales area," said Det Insp Steve Duffy, leading the investigation.
"We are going to Pontypridd and will be conducting inquiries in that area today," he told BBC Radio Wales.
Mr Lavelle, a crane driver, was working in Banbury to save money for his wedding. No-one has ever been convicted over his death.
His partner Michelle said: "He was a real family man and just wanted the best for his kids."
There is a reward of £25,000 on offer for information leading to a conviction of his killer or killers.
It is made up of £10,000 from Thames Valley Police and another £10,000 from the Justice for Kevin Lavelle fund.
'Large sum of money' The Crimestoppers charity has also offered £5,000 for anonymous information.
Det Insp Duffy said: "It is my belief that the persons responsible for this incident may well have discussed this matter with other people and that third parties who are not so well connected and their loyalties are not so strong will certainly be tempted by the offer of such a large sum of money.
"I strongly believe that there is at least one person out there not connected with the incident who is aware of the circumstances and I would strongly urge that person to come forward."
He said the reward was offered for details received anonymously if people were "not confident enough to speak to me directly".

PPC Ann Barnes in rape victim centre pledge

crime-refugee-border control reporter,kent(weastar times/Ebc/WP):::

Kent's police and crime commissioner (PCC) Ann Barnes has vowed to make providing a 24-7 unit for rape victims a top priority in the new year.

Kent is the only county in the South East that does not have a round-the-clock Sexual Assault Referral Centre.
Ms Barnes and the other PCC candidates discussed the issue during a BBC Radio Kent debate before for the election.
"It is important to me and I know it's important to lots of people here in the county," she said.
'Knock heads together' Ms Barnes added: "It's very high on my agenda. I will be meeting early in the new year with partners [to try] to persuade them and coerce them into pooling resources."
"We are not served at all well. It's a worry for me and it is important to me.
"I do know the Darent Valley centre is not open 24-7 and there is nothing in the east and south of the county."
"It is partnership working and each partner frankly has to dip into their pockets."
Sexual Assault Referral Centres are usually run in partnership and funded by the NHS, police and the voluntary sector.
Malcolm Gilbert, from Gravesend-based Family Matters, said support for victims of rape and sexual abuse varied across Kent at the moment.
But he said he was hopeful Ms Barnes could "knock heads together" in order to get the police and NHS to work together to provide better facilities for rape and sexual assault victims.

Roy Sly murder: 'Sadistic torture' killers jailed and death panalty

crime reporter,essex(weastar times/Ebc/WP):::
Two people have been jailed for the "sadistic torture" murder of a friend who invited them for a meal in Essex.

Roy Sly, 53, was so badly beaten at the Westcliff-on-Sea house, police could not tell from his face whether he was a woman or a man, the Old Bailey heard.

Vincent Harty, 39, of Shoeburyness, was convicted of murder and will serve a minimum of 30 years.

Lisa Marie Turner, 33, of no fixed address, who admitted the murder, was jailed for a minimum of 20 year

Mr Sly, a father of three, received 59 separate injuries, with the worst to his colon and genitals, following a night of heavy drinking with Harty and Turner.

This was a lengthy killing involving considerable violence and sadistic torture”
William Clegg QC
Prosecution lawyer

The court heard the killers had a history of drink and drug abuse and Mr Sly had been living apart from his wife because of his own heavy drinking.

Mr Justice Saunders said: "It is almost unthinkable that any human being could treat another in the way these defendants treated Roy Sly."
Died in agony

Normal inhibitions were absent from the killers because of damage done by years of drink and drug abuse.

The judge said: "While it is hard to think of more depraved conduct, it would have been much worse if committed while sober and in their right mind."

The hearing was halted briefly after a male dock officer fainted after hearing the harrowing details of the killing.

William Clegg QC, prosecuting, said: "They beat and tortured that poor man until he died in what must have been agony.

"This was a lengthy killing involving considerable violence and sadistic torture.

"His face was so badly beaten that police could not tell whether the corpse they were looking at was that of a man or woman."

After he died, one of the defendants stuck a hypodermic needle in Mr Sly's arm to make it appear that he died from a drugs overdose.

Turner, who was expecting Harty's baby at the time of the death, gave evidence about the torture.

A second man, Peter Smith, 38, of Furnace Row, Troedyrhiw, Merthyr Tydfil, was cleared of murder and discharged.

Fraudster life sentenced for £3m card-skimming scam

anti fruad control reporter(weastar times/Ebc):::
A fraudster who admitted running a £3m card-skimming scam in Somerset has received a suspended prison sentence,

Leonid Rotaru, 32, of Ashleigh Avenue, Bridgwater, was caught red-handed by police as he returned to collect a card reader from an ATM in Minehead.

The judge at Taunton Crown Court sentenced Rotaru to 18 months in prison, suspended for two years.

After his arrest, police discovered he had obtained about 9,000 bank card PIN numbers.
'Well-orchestrated'

Police have estimated banks lose on average £460 per card in such card-skimming scams.

Officers said the network to which Rotaru belonged had access to at least £3m, based on the average fraud per card.

Rotaru had installed a card-reading device at the cash machine at Tesco in Minehead.

When customers withdrew cash from the machine their suspicions were aroused, prompting them to tell shop staff who reported it to police.

Barry Douglas, from Avon and Somerset Police, said: "By irony or total coincidence the guy was coming back, we think, to remove the device.

"The PC had already seen the CCTV of him fitting it earlier in the day, recognised the person and he was arrested."

Rotaru, a Romanian national, pleaded guilty to four counts of fraud and the possession of various skimming devices.

He was already on the run from the police in the UK for similar offences when he was caught.

Mr Douglas said: "This is usually very organised, you can tell from the quality of the equipment that was attached to the ATM, you can tell from the amount of detail that was found on the computer.

"This was well-organised, well-orchestrated and with good criminal connections."

Kwame Ofosu-Asare murder: Two teenagers detained

crime reporter,LONDON(weastar  times/Ebc/WP):::

Two teenagers have been given life terms for the murder of a schoolboy.

Kwame Ofosu-Asare, 17, was stabbed while he was walking through the Moorlands Estate in Brixton, south London, in March.
The Old Bailey heard two youths involved in a "poisonous and senseless" gang war had mistaken him for one of their enemies.
Nelson Idiabeta, 18, and Nathaniel Okusanya, 19, were convicted of murder following a trial.
'Poisonous feud'
Judge Richard Marks ordered Idiabeta, of no fixed address, should serve a minimum term of 19 years and Okusanya, from Lambeth, must serve 20 years.
Kwame, from Catford in south-east London, was stabbed repeatedly in the back and received a total of 14 wounds while walking in Adelaide Close with a friend.
Judge Marks said: "It was Kwame's misfortune to be in the wrong place at the wrong time.

Nathaniel Okusanya, left, and Nelson Idiabeta were found guilty of Kwame's murder

"Neither of you has shown one iota of remorse for what you did."
Crispin Aylett QC, prosecuting, told jurors: "Kwame's death was but a part of a poisonous and senseless feud between two rival gangs of youths in south London."
He said Kwame was not a member of either gang. He had been to a recording studio in the area.
Kwame's father Kwaku, a sports journalist, told the court in a statement his son was full of potential.
He was in the sixth form of Forest Hill School and excelled in sport, music and acting and had great ambitions to make something of his life, he said.
Mr Ofosu-Asare said: "Kwame was a very vibrant, energetic and enthusiastic boy.
"His brother and sister are struggling to cope with his death. All our lives have been ruined."

Neville Dunn murderer Brian Harrison's appeal dismissed-death penelty active under new danger crime - death law

crime reporter,cormwell(weastar times/Ebc/WP):::

A man jailed for killing a man who died two years after he attacked him has lost an appeal against his conviction.

Brian Harrison, 31, was jailed for life in March for murdering Neville Dunn and told he would serve at least 16 years.
Harrison, from Cornwall, had been jailed for causing grievous bodily harm but was tried for murder after Mr Dunn, who was attacked in 2007, died in 2009.
It was only the second time in England someone had been tried for murder after being convicted of a lesser offence.
The murder trial heard Harrison, from Newlyn, kicked 42-year-old Mr Dunn's head "like a footballer", during the attack on 31 December 2007.
'Terrible ordeal'
He had pleaded self-defence and was cleared of attempted murder in 2008 but convicted of intentionally causing grievous bodily harm and sentenced to a minimum of six years in jail.
After Mr Dunn died in October 2009, Harrison was later tried and convicted of murder following the Law Reform Act of 1996 which abolished the "year and a day rule".
This stated that a death was not murder if it occurred more than a year and a day after the act alleged to have caused it.
After the Court of Appeal dismissed his case, Det Con Gail Windsor, of Devon and Cornwall Police, said: "The assault on Mr Dunn was a violent and premeditated crime and it is clear that his death was a direct result of the injuries sustained in the attack."
In March, Truro Crown Court was told Harrison carried out the attack because he wrongly believed Mr Dunn had raped his partner.
Det Con Windsor said: "For the past five years, Mr Dunn's family has suffered a terrible ordeal but the dismissal of this appeal will hopefully finally provide closure and help them move on with their lives."

Bleak day for THE ROYAL ENGLISH::: criminal dirty British(scotish-irish-welsish ) banking corruption with eu and chinese refugee worst record & fine for bad funding HSBC and ban all refugee function and its area serving.

banking anti coruption reporter(WP,weastar times/Guardian):::

The reputation of Britain's(scotish-irish-welsish) banking industry took a fresh battering when HSBC was slapped with a record $1.9bn (£1.2bn) fine by US regulators for money laundering and sanctions busting, the first arrests were made in the Libor-rigging investigation, and nationalised Northern Rock handed the taxpayer a £270m bill to compensate customers affected by a mistake in its paperwork.

The US department of justice (DoJ) detailed how HSBC, Britain's biggest bank, allowed drug traffickers to launder billions of dollars in the US and billions more to be moved across borders to countries facing sanctions, such as Burma, Cuba and Libya.
The department spared HSBC a criminal prosecution only because it considered the bank too big to prosecute. Listing a catalogue of mistakes by HSBC over almost a decade, the DoJ admitted that "collateral consequences" were a factor in its decision not to pursue criminal charges. Those consequences, it said, could have included a ban on doing business in the US, resulting in huge job losses.
The fine being paid by HSBC, and a five-year deferred prosecution agreement which will keep the bank under intense scrutiny and restrict top executive bonuses, was even larger than the £940m HSBC had warned it might face to settle the allegations in July.
HSBC's chief executive, Stuart Gulliver, apologised for the events which included laundering $881m for two drug cartels in Mexico and Columbia and accepting $15bn in unexplained "bulk cash", across the bank's counters in Mexico, Russia and other countries.
The embarrassment heaped on HSBC came just hours after close rival Standard Chartered, based in London, was forced to pay out a total of £415m to US regulators for breaching sanctions with Iran.

The Serious Fraud Office announced on Tuesday it had arrested three British men, aged 33, 41 and 47, in connection with its criminal investigation into the rigging of the benchmark interest rate. The investigation was sparked when Barclays was fined £290m by regulators in June for Libor manipulation. None of the three men arrested worked at Barclays.

The fines are just the latest setback for an industry which is reeling from the revelations in the Libor investigations at Barclays, where traders offered each other bottles of Bollinger to fix rates. The scandal prompted the departure of Barclays' chairman Marcus Agius, chief executive Bob Diamond and Barclays also received a £480,000 fine from Spanish authorities for under-rating the risk of bonds it sold to clients in 2008.
The rest of Britain's banks are now braced for a series of fines from the Financial Services Authority for manipulation of Libor. The Royal Bank of Scotland and Swiss bank UBS are expected to settle with the FSA in the coming days and both will face huge fines.
Taxpayers were forced to take more pain from the five-year-old banking crisis after the nationalised "bad bank" part of Northern Rock revealed a blunder in the information it had sent to borrowers. The error has landed Northern Rock Asset Management with a bill for £270m to repay 152,000 customers the interest they had paid for the past three years – the equivalent to £1,755 per customer.Technically the cost is borne by the bank but it will add to public sector borrowing. Lord Oakeshott, the Liberal Democrat peer, calculated that was the equivalent of a contribution of £8 to £10 per taxpayer. "This is £270m straight out of the taxpayers' pocket. I've been repeatedly assured in parliament that there was no black hole in Northern Rock. UK Financial Investments and the Treasury didn't know what they were talking about," he said.
At HSBC, Gulliver was at pains to insist that the bank was "a fundamentally different organisation" now to the one which allowed the breaches of US rules to take place. The focus turned on his predecessors, including the former chairman Stephen Green who was awarded a peerage and a role as a trade minister two years ago.
"Lord Green is not only a senior minister in the government, but an adviser to George Osborne on banking and a member of the cabinet committee on banking reform. He cannot continue to duck detailed questions about his time in charge of HSBC," said Chris Leslie, shadow financial secretary to the Treasury.
A spokesman for the Department for Business Innovation and Skills, which Green represents, said that Lord Green had already said that he shares the bank's regret for the events. But campaigners for urged HSBC customers to move their money. "Sorry is not good enough. The size of this fine shows just how flawed our financial system is and how morally bankrupt many UK banks are. Ultimately its bank customers that will pay the price for HSBC's criminal activity," said Laura Willoughby, chief executive of Move Your Money.

Hove husband quizzed over murder of Mary Saunders dies

An 85-year-old man who was arrested on suspicion of murdering his 71-year-old wife at their home in Hove has died of natural causes in hospital.

West Ham's Modibo Maïga makes Chelsea and Rafael Benítez suffer-westham utd-3-clesea-1

sports reporter(weaster times/guardian)::

Chelsea's retreat into the chasing pack continues apace. Rafael Benítez's side surrendered a grip on this derby and contrived to end up overwhelmed, overrun and utterly embarrassed, with all the disillusion that has festered over recent weeks erupting again in a show of open revolt in the stands. All four sides of the arena united in a chorus of "You're getting sacked in the morning" spat at the Spaniard, though that represented one of the kinder chants aimed his way by the disgruntled visiting support. At present, it is hard to see this marriage of convenience working out and Benítez admitted as much.

Asked if he could be certain he would be granted that opportunity to ride out the early storm, Benítez said: "No, I am not 100% certain. But we didn't win and if we had won the game we would be happy now. We have to win games to change things. My concern is improving the team and if we do that and start winning games, we'll be able to turn things around. The main thing for me is to improve the team. I'm not thinking about anything else. And if we improve on the pitch, the fans will be happy."
The European champions feel diminished these days, their gloss long gone, with too many in their number stripped of confidence. The winless league run extends to seven matches, their worst sequence since February 1995, with even the vague promise generated by successive clean sheets in the new manager's first two matches wrecked by this collapse. The stand-in was always fighting an uphill battle off the pitch but his team are far too brittle on it. Only three visiting players approached their fans on the final whistle to acknowledge the support, the rest shuffling off with the weight of the world on their shoulders. On this evidence, to consider them as title contenders feels like folly.
What made this all the more disturbing was the reality that the game should have been over, in Chelsea's favour, by the interval, when their lead stood at a single goal but might have been swollen by considerably more. Chances had been missed on the counterattack, with Sam Allardyce conceding as much. "They should have finished us off, they were so much better than we were," he said. "But they ended up paying the price."
The introduction of Mohamed Diamé – tired after his midweek exertions at Manchester United – and Matt Taylor that provided the spark, the former driving Ramires into his shell and West Ham forward with a vengeance. The hosts swarmed all over panicked opponents and Chelsea duly fell to pieces.
By the end this felt like a thrashing, with Benítez acknowledging even the suspect nature of Carlton Cole's equaliser – the forward having clambered all over Branislav Ivanovic on the edge of the six-yard box to head in Matt Jarvis's deflected delivery – could not be used as an excuse. Benítez described the award as "unlucky", a comment dripping with sarcasm, but it had been coming.
His side had at least hinted at a response, Juan Mata belting a free-kick on to the inside of a post, but still imploded at the last. Diamé thundered in a shot from the edge of the area that careered beyond Petr Cech four minutes from time to establish the lead, with another substitute, Modibo Maïga, adding a third after Ashley Cole had offered up possession with the visitors over-committed up-field.
Chelsea's limp finish was damning, that of a team who simply could not cope. Cue the unfurling of a banner in the away end that read: "Di Matteo Chelsea legend. Fact. Rafa Chelsea reject". Benítez had been subjected to worse, whether it was chants calling for a "table for two" or the now customary chorus for his predecessor in the 16th minute. His team had still been celebrating their first goal under his stewardship at that point, Mata having benefited from Victor Moses's fine pass beyond Winston Reid and Fernando Torres's neat pullback to steer in the opening goal.
That was Torres's first direct involvement in a Chelsea goal for 11 hours and two minutes, though his wait for personal reward goes on. His best chance came in the dying seconds, a point-blank header planted straight at Jussi Jaaskelainen, even if, by then, the contest had veered away. Within moments the final whistle prompted gleeful pandemonium among the home side's support.
This first victory over Chelsea in nine years meant everything and was achieved in the absence of Andy Carroll, who will be sidelined into the new year with a damaged lateral ligament in his knee, news that made Carlton Cole's performance all the more timely. The forward had laid off the ball for Diamé's goal as well as wrestling above Ivanovic to nod in his equaliser.

"The news on Andy is sweetened by that performance," said Allardyce. "And Maïga scoring, too, because we'll need him now more than ever to adjust to the Premier League. We've contacted Liverpool on Andy, and they have had all the information and sent down a medical representative to look at him. He's visited a specialist and will stay with us."

Carroll's absence could stretch to eight weeks, in which time much might change at both of these clubs. Certainly, everything at Chelsea feels horribly temporary. The week ahead is likely to see their Champions League defence peter out, even if they manage to defeat Nordsjaelland at Stamford Bridge on Wednesday. Asked if the challenge he had taken on after two years out of the game was proving more difficult than he had imagined, Benítez said: "It could be, yes. This is a top side in the middle of the season but things aren't the best. We'll try and improve things but it will take time.
"It's difficult to explain the turnaround today. We could have finished the game in the first half, but it was totally different after that. They were on top of us and we couldn't manage: we gave the ball away easily, weren't comfortable in possession, they were in control, not winning the first or second balls ... we have to improve, and the players are desperate to improve. I'm here because I want to be here. This is a top side who can compete for trophies but we need to work to get back towards that."
Their crisis merely deepens by the game.

Daring World War II pilot Ken Gatward's medals awarded + £91,00000000

deffence reporter(weastar times/Ebc/WP):::

Medals awarded to a World War II pilot who risked his life to drop the French Tricolour over the Arc de Triomphe in occupied Paris in 1942 have been denioed for sold ...

Wing Commander Ken Gatward, who lived in Essex, flew his Bristol Beaufighter down the Champs-Elysees in the operation to boost French morale.
Colchester auctioneers Reeman Dansie expected the medals would make £8,000.
But the collection made more than five times that figure.
The items were being auctioned following the death of Wing Cdr Gatward's widow.
They had lived near Frinton-on-Sea and Wing Cdr Gatward died in 1998, aged 84.
In a Bristol Beaufighter of RAF Coastal Command, Wing Cdr Gatward and his crew flew over the main streets of the capital at the level of third-floor windows.
People in the Champs-Elysees watched as the French Tricolour streamed from the fuselage of the aircraft and floated down on to the Arc de Triomphe.

The airmen then attacked Gestapo Headquarters dropping another flag in the hope it would fall across the front door.
Wing Cdr Gatward's gallantry was rewarded with his first Distinguished Flying Cross (DFC) in July 1942.
He received a second DFC in September 1944 where he participated in an operation which resulted in the destruction of a German Convoy and, despite sustaining serious damage to his aircraft, flew safely back to base.
He was awarded the Distinguished Service Order (DSO) in June 1944. The medal group are official replacements because the originals were lost.
Press cuttings including cartoons of the Paris attack, original photographs and congratulatory telegrams were included in the lots.

John andrew a child rapist jailed in by norfolkk(Great Yarmouth )court

child crime reporter,norfolk(weastar times/Ebc/WP):::A 55-year-old man has been jailed for 16 years for raping two girls.

John andrew, of George Street, Great Yarmouth, Norfolk, pleaded guilty to 10 counts of rape and charges relating to indecent images of children.

He attacked the two girls during the mid-1990s and in 2011, Norwich Crown Court heard.

Norfolk Police said andrew "terrible offences" involved "vulnerable girls". He has been placed on the sex offenders register for life.

Detectives discovered indecent images and films on a computer hard drive and a number of memory sticks belonging to andrew.

'Enormous courage'

Police said a number of images were of Level 5 - the highest classification.

As well as the rape offences, he admitted one count of making an indecent photograph of a child and three counts of possessing indecent pictures of children.

Det Con Nikki Clarke, who led the investigation, said: "andrew committed these terrible offences against two vulnerable young girls who until recently had been too scared to come forward and we would like to commend them for the bravery they have shown.

"By pleading not guilty, until he changed his plea on the first day of trial, andrew forced the victims to believe they would have to relive the ordeal in court: this has proven an immensely stressful experience.

"It has taken an enormous amount of courage on their part, and we hope such a sentence will give them a sense of closure and that they can now move on positively with their lives."

Peterborough City Hospital's strain of PFI repayments

unuse most modern hospital..pic courtesy Ebc
health crime reporter,cambridge(weastar times/Ebc):::A hospital built under the private finance initiative (PFI) has saddled a health trust with crippling repayments, a report has found.

Peterborough City Hospital opened in 2010 to combine services on one site.

A National Audit Office (NAO) report found repayments - totalling £41.6m in 2011 - placed a "considerable strain" on Peterborough and Stamford NHS Trust.

The trust needs to cut spending by £64m by 2017. The union Unison said it wants a full inquiry into the project.

The report added that doubts over the trust's ability to meet repayments without services suffering had been raised but ignored before construction began in 2007.

The hospital was officially opened by the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge on Wednesday,

It has been acknowledged that our PFI payments are unaffordable”

Dr Peter ReadingInterim chief executive of hospital trust

'Critical financial position'

Amyas Morse, head of the NAO, called for "urgent action" from the trust, the Department of Health and regulators to "get the trust back on its feet".

He added: "The trust board's poor financial management and procurement of an unaffordable PFI scheme have left the trust in a critical financial position.

"The board developed and enthusiastically supported an unrealistic business case built on over-optimistic financial projections.

"The regulatory and approval processes did not work in this case and did not ensure affordability."

Last year, the trust faced a deficit of £46m, which is expected to rise to £50m this year.

This is as a result of the PFI scheme, past financial failings and other changes affecting the hospital's income.

The capital cost of the scheme as a proportion of turnover was the largest in the NHS, at 142%.

Monitor, the regulator of foundation trusts, raised concerns about the scheme's affordability before it was approved.

But neither the trust board nor the Department of Health addressed these concerns fully, the NAO said.

'Went badly wrong'

Dr Peter Reading, interim chief executive of the hospital trust, said the board acknowledged shortcomings but had put in place "new structures and systems to improve our financial forecasting".

He said the trust was on track to deliver £13.2m cost savings in 2012-13.

"It has been acknowledged that our PFI payments are unaffordable," he said. "As the majority of the board members who approved the project to build our hospital are no longer in post, I cannot speak on their behalf about the decisions taken at the time."

Dr David Bennett, Monitor chief executive, said the organisation had queried the affordability of the PFI scheme from the start, "but the trust went ahead with the PFI anyway".

"Once the financial situation at Peterborough became clear, Monitor took regulatory action, and we continue to work closely with the trust, along with commissioners and the Department of Health, to turn around its financial performance."

A Department of Health spokesman said it the case was an example of where "PFI policy went badly wrong".

Tracey Lambert, from Unison, said: "A hospital which originally cost £310m will end up costing the taxpayer £1.6 billion.

"Even mortgage finance at 6% would be far cheaper than the soaring cost of PFI.

"But to make sure we get a change of policy, we want to expose to public view just what was done in Peterborough, who signed off the deal and who rubber-stamped it."

Sally McGrath murder trial: Jury goes out

crime reporter,cambridge(weastar times/Ebc/WP/crime journal):::

A jury in the trial of a man accused of murdering a woman over 30 years ago has retired to consider its verdict.

The body of Sally McGrath, 22, was found in woods near Peterborough, Cambridgeshire, in March 1980. She had gone missing eight months earlier.

Miss McGrath was last seen alive on 11 July 1979 at a Peterborough hotel with Paul Taylor, jurors at Chelmsford Crown Court have been told.

The former soldier and builder, 60, of Fareham, Hampshire, denies murder.

He has been on trial for the past eight weeks.

When Miss McGrath's body was found it was badly decomposed and police at the time could not recover any forensic evidence.

Mr Taylor, known as Barry, also denies three counts of rape, one attempted rape, a serious sexual assault and an indecent assault relating to three different women.

Jeremy Bamber's latest action against conviction fails

crime reporter,essex(weastar times/Ebc/WP):::Two judges in London rejected a judicial review application.

Bamber challenged a refusal by the Criminal Cases Review Commission (CCRC) to refer his case back to the Court of Appeal as a miscarriage of justice.

The CCRC, an independent body which investigates possible miscarriages, rejected Bamber's last appeal in April.

The decision on Thursday follows a single judge rejecting Bamber's application for permission to seek judicial review of the CCRC's decision after he studied the case papers in private.

Complex investigation

Bamber made a renewed application dealt with by Sir John Thomas, president of the Queen's Bench Division, and Mr Justice Globe.

Announcing the decision, Sir John said that having looked at the approach taken by the CCRC in the case he could not see "any way" in which a challenge could be made to the decision reached.

"It seems to me that a challenge is impossible to mount," he said.

The 51-year-old who is serving a whole-life term for the 1985 killings at a remote Essex farmhouse, has always protested his innocence.

In April, the CCRC said that despite a lengthy and complex investigation, it had not "identified any evidence or legal argument that it considers capable of raising a real possibility that the Court of Appeal would quash the convictions".

Bamber and two other killers have also started an appeal in the European Court of Human Rights against spending the rest of their lives in prison, claiming a breach of human rights.

Net refugee-illegel immigration to THE ROYAL ENGLAND falls by a new anti refugee law by LORDS EC.

refugee-illegel immgrant  crime reporter(weastar times/WP/guardian):::Net migration to THE ENGLAND has fallen by a quarter over the past year, from 242,000 to 183,000, the Office for National Statistics has reported.

The decrease is the first fall in the figures since the government set its target to reduce annual net migration to below 100,000 by the next LORDS executive meeting by immplement anti refugee and illegal immigration law.

Official statisticians say the fall of nearly 60,000 in the year to March 2012 has been driven by a reduction in the number of overseas students coming to study in Britain and a rise in the number of people leaving Britain with a definite job offer abroad.

The fall in immigration accounts for two-thirds of the drop. It is the largest fall in net migration for four years. Visa applications show the first signs that the official squeeze on family migration has begun to bite.

The quarterly migration figures also show for the first time that China is now the second most common country of origin for migrants coming to THE ENGLAND  from outside Europe &inside europe.

Home Office ministers welcomed the fall saying it was a "significant step towards bringing net migration down to the tens of thousands" but at least one migration expert said that the government will still reduce this  to meet its target by and within 2013.

Teenager murdered by nigro african refugee gang attack in Brixton!!!!

a black-nigro refugee gang member who murder a teenager ----- pic courtesy:::guardian.
crime reporter(weastar times/guardian):::An innocent teenager studying for his A-levels was murdered after a gang hunted him down and stabbed him 14 times, in the mistaken belief he was part of a rival gang, a jury heard on Tuesday.

buy  was killed as he walked with a friend through a council estate in Brixton, south London, in broad daylight.

The jury at the Old Bailey heard the murder was "cowardly and merciless".

Nelson Idiabeta, 18, of no fixed address, and Nathaniel Okusanya, 19, of Lambeth, south London, deny murder.

The crown claims they went to the Moorlands estate for a revenge attack on a member of a rival gang.

When Kwame, the son of a sports journalist, from Catford, south-east London, and his friend were set upon, they ran into a side road to try to seek safety at a relative's house.

But the relative was not at home, and Kwame and his friend ran on and became trapped in a cul-de-sac.

His friend climbed a high wall and escaped, but Kwame was caught and stabbed repeatedly in the back.

Crispin Aylett QC, prosecuting, said: "Kwame's death was but a part of a poisonous and senseless feud between two rival gangs of youths in south London.

"Kwame was in fact not a member of either gang. He was killed for no reason other than that his murderers had come upon him on an estate which they considered to be enemy territory and at a time when they were looking to take revenge for the stabbing of one of their own only hours earlier.

"In other words, Kwame was murdered for being in the wrong place and at the wrong time – a glib phrase that does not even begin to describe the suffering of his family and friends that has resulted from his murder."

Aylett said the attack had its roots in a feud between the TN1 (Trust No-One) gang from the Tulse Hill area of south London and Brixton-based GAS (Guns and Shanks).

It is claimed that Idiabeta and Okusanya were members of the TN1 group out to avenge another TN1 member who had been stabbed in a bus garage attack by GAS earlier in the day.

"The prosecution allege that the murder of Kwame was an attempt by members of the TN1 gang to take revenge on the GAS gang," Aylett said.

"The estate on which Kwame was murdered, the Moorlands Estate in Brixton, is associated with members of the GAS gang – they consider it to be their territory – and the prosecution suggest that Kwame was stabbed in the mistaken belief that he was a member of the GAS gang."

The trial continues...jurries are think for death sentenced as gang murder control as soon as possible...in next week.
