Jason Cotterill, 42, sent explicit revenge porn images of his ex partner to her children and set up 67 Facebook profiles to bombard her with abuse . A jilted lover who sent explicit revenge porn images of his ex-partner to her daughter and set up 67 Facebook profiles to bombard her with abuse has been jailed. Jason Cotterill, 42, plagued his victim with abusive messages over the internet after she tried to end their relationship in October last year. A court heard he also emailed the woman a link to an online sex video she was in - and threatened to post it on to her Facebook page. Cotterill knew his victim from childhood and knew that she had been previously involved in making sex tapes, Birmingham Magistrates' Court heard. He and the victim had attended the same school when they were children but got back in contact through Facebook in 2013. They met up for three dates between January and September 2013 but had sex on just one occasion. The court was told that the mother - a former sex worker - immediately regretted the liaison and told her lover she did not want to see him again. Soon afterwards she began receiving 'creepy' messages from the defendant, saying he loved her and wanted to be with her. As a result, she 'unfriended' him on Facebook and changed her mobile phone number. During the trial the woman told the court he set up 67 different Facebook in an attempt to contact her after she blocked him on the social networking site. She said: 'He started setting up different profiles on Facebook to send me messages. He also sent my family messages and my friends messages because he couldn't get to me. 'I was very upset, it drove me insane, it made me depressed. I'm on medication. 'His language was absolutely disgusting. He was asking me why I wasn't playing any more, calling me names.' The victim said Cotterill found pictures of her on the internet that he threatened to send to her family and friends. He sent more than one to her daughter, she said. Birmingham Magistrates' Court heard he also emailed the woman a link to an online sex video she was in - and threatened to post it on her Facebook page. Cotterill knew his victim from childhood and knew that she had been previously involved in making sex tapes . In October last year, Cotterill sent the victim a link to an x-rated explicit video with a message that said: 'F**k it, I'm going to have it as my profile picture'. He also taunted the victim on Facebook, telling her: 'I am going to send some more pictures too because it's fun lol.' The 42-year-old was 'driven insane' and suffered depression and panic attacks after Cotterill spent a year sending 'disgusting' messages. David Houldcroft, defending, said Cotterill, who had two previous convictions for harassment, accepted sending the link and that it would have caused her upset. Cotterill, of Oldbury, was jailed for 12 weeks and had previously been

Summary: Jason Cotterill knew his victim had previously been involved in sex videos .

Cooking a gourmet lunch for family and friends at Easter has never been so easy - or cheap. One of Australia's most loved cooks, Lyndey Milan, has teamed up with Aldi to create Easter lunch recipes that will easily feed six people for less than $6 each. The home cook icon put her skills to the test by trawling the supermarket aisles to find healthy, fresh produce to turn into an Easter feast. Scroll down for video . One of Australia's most loved cooks, Lyndey Milan, has teamed up with Aldi to create Easter lunch recipes that will easily feed six people for less than $6 each . 'I am such of a massive fan of the hospitality of a table. I think sitting down around a table is the loveliest thing,' Milan told Daily Mail Australia. 'The worst homemade disaster is better than the shop bought stuff. You'll be wealthier, healthier and friendlier for cooking for the people you love.' The results of her Aldi experiment include Greek lamb with salad and zucchini pilaf and herb crusted salmon with pea puree, smashed potatoes and carrots. For dessert, Lyndey says her hot cross bun and Easter egg bread & butter pudding with almond praline, which came in at $2 per person, is guaranteed to be a crowd-pleaser. 'The hot cross bun pudding is so much fun. What I like about it is you can use leftovers – you'll always have stale hot cross buns and Easter eggs,' Lyndey told Daily Mail Australia. 'The salmon is smart enough for a dinner party. I would serve that for people coming for dinner. 'What I love about it is the ease of preparation. All you do it make the crusting, spread the salmon with Dijon mustard – it's not that hard, it's perfect.' The home cook icon put her skills to the test by trawling the Aldi supermarket aisles to find healthy, fresh produce to turn into an Easter feast - including hot cross bun and Easter egg bread & butter pudding . Greek lamb with salad and zucchini pilaf is also on Lyndey's menu for Easter . Lyndey was inspired by the lamb dish after filming a cooking series in Greece a few years back. 'At Easter, some people like to eat fish but then lamb is so traditional. Sometimes families aren't sure of how to cook it – the whole point of Greek lamb is it's well cooked, so you don't have that issue of cooking it rare for some and well done for others,' she said. 1. Use up all of what you buy . 2. Buy fresh produce that’s in season . 3. Store things correctly so they will keep well in your fridge . 4. Take advantage of any deals or specials and build your weekly meals around them . 5. Always try to use leftovers in another meal . 6. Only buy what you need . 7. Use your freezer . 'You can buy it from Aldi already butterflied so you can reduce cooking time. I just did that

Summary: Lyndey Milan created Easter lunch recipes for $6 per person from Aldi . Home cook icon trawled supermarket aisles to find inspiration for recipes . Result of experiment include Greek lamb and herb crusted salmon dishes . Hot cross bun and Easter egg bread & butter pudding came in at just $2 a person and Lyndey says it is sure to be a crowd pleaser .


A new vaccine to stimulate the body's immune system could offer a cure for HIV. The 'kick and kill' strategy aims to eradicate the virus, by stimulating the immune system - the body's natural defence mechanism - with a vaccine. Researchers believe the injection could flush out dormant HIV hiding in white blood cells with a chemical 'kick', allowing a boosted immune system to identify and kill the cells. The theory, developed by researchers at University College London, the University of Oxford and the University of North Carolina, is based on a single patient case study. Scientists hope a new 'kick and kill' vaccine could flush out HIV hidden in the body before stimulating a person's own immune system to kill the cells . 'Our study shows that the immune system can be as powerful as the most potent combination drug cocktails,' study co-author Dr Ravi Gupta, of UCL, said. 'We're still a long way from being able to cure HIV patients, as we still need to develop and test effective vaccines, but this study takes us one step closer by showing us what type of immune responses an effective vaccine should induce.' The study looked at a single 59-year-old man in London who was an 'elite controller' - meaning his immune system could control HIV for a long period of time without his needing treatment. Elite controllers, who make up 0.3 per cent of HIV patients, eventually require treatment to prevent progression to AIDS. But they can go a lot longer without treatment because their immune systems are more active against HIV. The patient in the study had both HIV and myeloma, a cancer of the bone marrow. The bone marrow produces white blood cells, including those that help to control HIV. Pioneering new treatments for HIV, flu, ebola and cancer are being developed by scientists harnessing man-made DNA. Experts have discovered how to create strands of artificial DNA, each mimicking a different killer disease, and inject them into patients. The idea is that the patients' immune systems will then be able to recognise the threats and eliminate them. Inovio, one of the companies behind the technique, has begun trials in humans, after strong results in the lab. The American company is using the method to attack flu, ebola and certain types of cancer – as well as HIV and hepatitis. Experts have already started trials on female patients to see if they can stop them developing cervical cancer. To treat the patient's myeloma, his bone marrow was completely removed and replaced using his own stem cells. When the bone marrow was removed, the immune system was severely impaired, allowing the HIV to re-activate and replicate. This caused the level of virus in his bloodstream to rise from fewer than 50 copies per millilitre to approximately 28,000 copies per ml before is immune system's function returned. When the patient's immune function returned about two weeks after the transplant, the levels of HIV in his bloodstream rapidly fell. His immune system reduced HIV levels at a similar rate to the most powerful

Summary: Scientists believe future vaccine could trigger body's immune system . Could flush out dormant HIV hiding in the body allowing the immune system to identify and target virus cells . Theory based on one case study, 59-year-old man with HIV whose virus load - amount of HIV in his blood - drop dramatically after treatment .


A student who was left with an unsightly cauliflower ear following a botched piercing says she wishes she had listened to her mother who told her not to get it done. Remmie, 18, had a thick bar put through her ear as an act of teenage rebellion, and initially hoped it would make her stand out from the crowd. But when the piercing became inflamed, Remmie was forced to remove the bar - and the resulting wound healed into a hazelnut-sized lump known as a keloid scar. Scroll down for video . Unsightly: Remmie was left with a hazelnut sized scar on the top of her ear following a piercing . Inflamed: After getting this bar put in, her ear became inflamed with led to a painful keloid scar . 'It looks vile, it's not pretty and makes me feel less confident,' says Remmie who appears on TLC reality series, Extreme Beauty Disasters. 'It's getting bigger and it's itchy. I had it done to look different, I look different now but not in a good way. People shout stuff and stare. 'It looks like I have a bit of chewing gum stuck on my ear. You just want to flick it off but you can't.' Her concerned mother, Victoria, who had always been against the piercing, added: 'I told her not to have it done. I'm worried about it getting bigger.' Vile: Remmie, 18, says the unsightly lump is 'vile' and has knocked her confidence badly . Desperate to get rid of the unsightly lump, Remmie was forced to seek the help of cosmetic surgeon Vik Vijh. Mr Vijh immediately diagnosed a keloid scar, which according to the British Skin Foundation, affects between 10 and 15 per cent of wounds. The scars, which usually take the form of a hard lump of tissue and are often larger than the original wound, are most frequently found on the shoulders and neck. Unfortunately, as Mr Vijh pointed out, removal operations frequently make things worse as the body goes into overdrive to heal the new wound. But much to the 18-year-old's relief, he also revealed that keloid removal operations on the ear are among the most likely to be successful. Much better: The teenager is now smiling again after a cosmetic surgeon managed to remove the scar . 'The good news is I can take these lumps away and reconstruct,' he explains. 'But there is a risk the scars could return.' Despite the risk, Remmie chose to go ahead and much to her delight, her ear has been returned to normal. 'My confidence is over the top,' she said afterwards. 'it's so much better. I feel like me again, it's nice to be back.'

Summary: Remmie, 18, got a piercing across the top of her ear . She hoped it would make her stand out from the crowd . Went ahead with piercing against advice of her mother . Her body tried to heal the wound by producing scar tissue . Created an unsightly lump known as a keloid scar . Extreme Beauty Disasters is on TLC, Thursdays at 8pm .


Fernando Alonso, whose youthful brilliance usurped even Michael Schumacher in the autumn of his career, considered a life beyond Formula One. This full-blooded driver, who has proved himself probably the best of his generation during 15 dazzling yet sometimes turbulent seasons, said McLaren would be his last team and that when he walks out of the paddock for ever he will barely take a backward glance. ‘I will close the loop on that part of my life,’ he said ahead of Sunday’s Chinese Grand Prix. Fernando Alonso says he will retire from Formula One once his deal with McLaren-Honda comes to an end . ‘I started with McLaren-Honda when I was three years old — a replica from my father; I will finish with McLaren-Honda, but the real one. That will be one third of my life. It will end with great experiences, great memories, great friendships, but normal life will start the day I retire. I don’t think I’ll become a driver manager or anything. After 15 or 16 or 17 years of Formula One it’s enough.’ Such are McLaren’s difficulties that Alonso may finish his career with two titles, a noble haul but fewer than his talents warrant — and fewer than anyone could have imagined when the Spaniard, then driving for Renault, denied Schumacher a record eighth crown in 2006. But Alonso, 33, is almost self-consciously happy about his lot despite leaving Ferrari to join McLaren, who are struggling for pace and reliability. Alonso left McLaren in 2007 after a bitter year but says he is glad to be back for the 2015 season . McLaren have struggled for pace - and with mechanical faults - during the first two Grand Prix of the season . ‘I was second in the championship with Ferrari three times and I didn’t want to be second for a fourth time,’ he said. ‘If they win the championship, I might have another opinion on leaving. I’ve been lucky to win championships and to win many grands prix, but now sometimes I feel happier and prouder doing the things we are doing now as a team than winning a trophy. ‘There are times when you arrive at a maturity and stage of mind that gives you different priorities in life.’ That was one of the great racers talking as he has never talked before. Alonso celebrates after winning the world championship with Renault in 2005 .

Summary: Fernando Alonso, 34, signed a three-year deal with McLaren this year . Spanish driver says this will be his last venture in Formula One . McLaren have struggled for pace in first two Grand Prix of the season . Alonso says he expects success will come - it is just a 'matter of time'


Soaring immigration means most parts of the country could have fewer available primary school places than pupils in just two years. Pressure on the education system has intensified following a baby boom and continued migration, forcing schools to boost class sizes and add classrooms. The Local Government Association warned they may not be able to create more places at the rate that is needed. Pressure on the education system has intensified following a baby boom and continued migration, forcing schools to boost class sizes and classrooms - but say they may not be able to continue doing so . Its analysis of official figures indicates that by September next year, two in five local authorities in England will have more children ready to start school than there are places. This will increase to more than half by 2017/18 and to three in five by the following year. It comes after the head of Ofsted Sir Michael Wilshaw warned last year that schools were struggling to cope with growing numbers of migrant pupils. ‘When they’re faced with an influx of children from other countries, they need the resources and capacity to deal with it and if those resources aren’t there, that’s a big issue for government,’ he said. In 2013, a leaked paper prepared by the Department for Education revealed a steady increase in the number of babies being born has helped fuel the crisis. The LGA said that councils have created more than 300,000 primary school places since May 2010, with many increasing class sizes. Money set aside for school repair programmes has been diverted into converting areas such as music rooms into classrooms. The Local Government Association warned they may not be able to create more places at the rate needed . But the association warned the situation is reaching a ‘tipping point’ and made a fresh call for an incoming government to hand councils enough cash and fresh powers to open new schools and establish more places. It comes as parents brace themselves for ‘primary school offers day’ later this month, when councils will tell families whether they secured their first choice of school. Last year, research based on an LGA report found an extra 130,000 primary places would be needed across the country within three years. Many parts of the country saw a rise in applications last year and up to four in ten children were denied admission to their chosen primary schools. David Simmonds, the chairman of the LGA’s children and young people board, said: ‘Mums and dads rightly expect their child to be able to get a school place where they live. ‘But our fear is that we will reach a tipping point when councils or schools cannot afford the massive cost of creating places or find the space necessary for new classes.’ Yesterday, Labour seized on the predictions to attack the Coalition’s free schools programme, claiming that it was creating extra places in areas where they were not needed. Labour’s education spokesman Tristram Hunt said: ‘David Cameron’s crisis in school places is yet more evidence the

The size of Sky Sports’ gamble in paying an astonishing £11millon a game to retain their Premier League TV rights has led to the company having to re-address their entire sports strategy. And overlord Barney Francis addressed staff this week to present his way forward - ‘Fit for the Future’ - with the station needing to make considerable changes to afford their gigantic football bill. This will see Sky concentrate on their live rights in every sport while reducing the support programming and those leaving the network are not being automatically replaced. Sky Sports will pay £11millon a game to broadcast Premier League football for three years starting in 2016 . Graeme Souness, Thierry Henry and Ed Chamberlain on Sky's Super Sunday coverage of the Premier League . Francis, who prefers to speak off the cuff, was using a prepared script on this important occasion and one department asked for a copy to show Sky personnel who missed the meeting. But he declined to issue duplicates, telling his troops he didn’t want your Sports Agenda columnist to get hold of the text - such is the paranoia in Isleworth. Sky claim the strategy talk - rather than plain cost cutting - was preparing the station for the varied demands of a multi-platform future where a Thierry Henry video on Sky’s YouTube channel can become more important than traditional programme making. The technical problems with the charter plane which forced the England team to stay overnight in Turin after the game weren’t the only flying concerns related to the Italy match. The BA flight bringing in ITV Sport’s football pundits Glenn Hoddle, Ian Wright, Lee Dixon and the cream of Fleet Street had to abort landing close to the ground because of the cross-winds meaning the plane was wrongly aligned with the runway approach. These same Italian cross-winds and another rather more serious runway direction miscalculation by the pilot in poor weather saw the plane carrying the great Torino side of 1949 crash into the Basilica of Superga which stands on the hill overlooking the airport, killing all 31 on board. Relationships between the FA and the England Travel Supporters Club - already at a low point over the switching of double loyalty rewards from away trips to Wembley - will be further strained by the loud singing of songs in Turin that only bring embarrassment on English football. Understandably the FA are in no mood to act on their fans’ complaints about ‘Two caps for Wembley, you’re having a laugh’, when the same travelling set of supporters still sing ‘F*** the IRA’ and ‘Where were you in World War Two’. It’s also been noted that while senior members of the Fans Supporters Federation are quick to speak out about loyalty issues, they are less talkative about those tasteless chants. England fans sang anti-IRA songs during Tuesday's friendly draw with Italy at the Juventus Stadium - there is no suggestion that the fans pictured in this image where involved in the chants . It would never have happened under the fanatical reign of

Summary: Sky Sports will be paying £11millon a game to broadcast games in 2016 . Three-year deal means Sky are re-addressing their entire sports strategy . ‘Fit for the Future’ plan will see reduced programming support .

'It brings me so much energy and I feel so much better in myself for smashing out a gym session.' He continued: 'When I first met Lydia she didn't lead the healthiest of lifestyles mainly due to a lack of guidance. 'I think it's so easy for people to assume starving yourself of food is the best way to stay slim when in fact more of the right food is more important due to the importance of health inside and out. 'After a few conversations, we soon had her hitting the gym and eating on regular intervals she seems so much more satisfied now she is eating more than one meal per day.'

One of the world’s leading distance runners and a regular training partner of Mo Farah’s claims to be living in fear of his life after raising allegations with the authorities in his native Uganda that a coach has been sexually abusing female runners; some as young as 15. Moses Kipsiro, who successfully defended his Commonwealth Games 10,000m title in Glasgow last year, told Sportsmail this week of the day five female runners came to him for help; and the death threats he says he has subsequently received after reporting the allegations to his national federation and the police. Only on Monday Kipsiro passed details of the death threats – sent anonymously via text messages – to police officers in Kampala, Uganda. But he told me he will have to leave Uganda with his wife and three children if the police fail to investigate his claims. ‘I will have to protect my family,’ he said. Moses Kipsiro raised allegations that a coach has been abusing female athletes, some as young as 15 . Kipsiro is a regular training partner of British long-distance running legend Mo Farah (above) The story was first brought to the attention of Sportsmail by Pace Sports Management, who also represent double Olympic champion Farah. Speaking this week, 28-year-old Kipsiro said he was approached last year by five female athletes at a training camp for the African Cross-Country Championships. Kipsiro says they went to him as the senior athlete and captain of the team – he holds national records and has won medals at world level as well as three Commonwealth golds – and complained a coach had been raping them. ‘According to the girls he would tell them he wanted to get them pregnant and then have an abortion, because by doing that it would widen their private parts and enable them to run like Kenyans,’ Kipsiro told me. ‘I went to the federation and I went to the police. But so far nothing has happened. Apart from the fact that I have received these death threats. My brother has also been threatened and arrested. And I have been dropped from the team. I did not run in the World Cross Country Championships in China last weekend because of this.’ Officials at the Ugandan Athletics Federation deny the allegations but details of the story have appeared in a Ugandan newspaper, which reportedly interviewed three of the female runners who had spent a month at the training camp in Kapchorwa in March last year.

Kipsiro beat Kenya's Josphat Kipkoech Bett (left) and Canadian Cameron Levins at Hampden Park . ‘He would wake up in the middle of the night and come to our room,’ one athlete is reported to have told the Daily Monitor. ‘He threatened to chase us from camp if we ever said anything or turned him down. We didn’t have any female coach to run to. It was horrible. On some days, he would call one or two of us to

In Afghanistan, many girls are forbidden from riding bicycles - they are, however, allowed to ride skateboards. So when Australian skateboarder Oliver Percovich created Skateistan, a non-profit organization that aims to connect youth in Afghanistan with education through skateboarding, it shouldn't have been a surprise that 40 per cent of the program's students would be girls. In 2012, photographer Jessica Fulford-Dobson decided to take pictures of these Middle Eastern skater girls, and her work was recently on display at a gallery in London. Scroll down for video . Tough girls: Photographer Jessica Fulford-Dobson took pictures of young girls skateboarding in dresses and skirts in Kabul, Afghanistan . Finding time for fun: Most girls are not allowed to ride bikes in Afghanistan, but skateboarding isn't against the rules . According to Feature Shoot, when Mr. Percovich first brought the program to Kabul, Afghanistan in 2007, many of the locals had never even heard of skateboarding. In fact, Ms. Fulford-Dobson said she believes the reason skateboarding has been received so differently in Afghanistan than in other countries is precisely because it was new to the region. 'When skateboarding arrived in Afghanistan, it didn't have any preconceived images for them. They didn't know what it was,' she said, while adding that it was only accepted after it became clear that it was just 'a toy to have fun with'. Safety first: While the girls were conservatively dressed, they didn't forgo safety measures like wearing helmets and knee pads . Little ladies who skate: Ms. Fulford-Dobson said she was fascinated with just how immaculate one girl, left, was, considering how dusty the skateboard facilities were . This sport knows no gender: 40 per cent of Skateistan's students are female; the girls also have the option of joining a back-to-school program . Now, its the top sport for girls in the country, who are able to ride freely in dresses and other clothing that can be restrictive when playing other sports. When Ms. Fulford-Dobson visited the Skateistan facilities in 2012, she quickly noticed their confidence and the joy they took in learning. She took pictures of them with natural light, capturing them in dresses, pants, headscarves and sneakers as they happily played on skateboards. 'I captured about nine in total,' she told the BBC, recalling one girl whose father had initially told her she couldn't join the skateboarding program. He finally relented after she wouldn't stop begging him. Girls will be girls: Ms. Fulford-Dobson said she was struck by the girls' confidence and how happy they were to skateboard . Unconventional athletic gear: The style of dress required by girls can make it difficult to play other sports, but luckily it doesn’t tend to interfere with their skateboarding . 'I met so many impressive women and girls in Afghanistan: a teacher as tough and determined as any man; young Afghans in their early twenties who were volunteering at an orphanage and were passionate about being seen as strong and willing to fight for themselves, rather than as victims of circumstance; and girls who were being educated to

Fireman Stephen Hunt, 38, died after he and a colleague got into difficulties battling a fire started at Paul's Hair World in Manchester's Northern Quarter on July 13, 2013 . A 16-year-old girl charged with arson after she discarded a cigarette causing a city centre shop blaze which claimed the life of a firefighter had the charge dropped today after a judge said she was 'guilty only of being careless'. Fireman Stephen Hunt, 38, lost his life tackling the inferno which began at Paul's Hair World in Manchester's Northern Quarter almost two years ago. The girl - who was just 15 at the time - is said to have dropped a cigarette to the floor while standing near the shop's fire exit which rolled underneath the door and set boxes alight. She was originally charged with arson being reckless as to whether life was endangered, but was cleared having been due to stand trial on Monday. After more than a year of legal wrangling, with scientists initially stating that the fire could not have been started accidentally, further investigation led to the conclusion a discarded cigarette could have been the cause. More than 60 firefighters battled the blaze, which erupted on July 13, 2013, as frightened passers-by watched on. Father-of-two Mr Hunt, of Whitefield, Manchester, and another fireman, got into difficulties while tackling the fire and they were rushed to hospital where Mr Hunt was pronounced dead. At Manchester Crown Court, prosecutor Alexander Leach said thin and damaged cardboard boxes and paper labels stored behind the fire door at the business may well have caught fire if a cigarette was discarded. He said: 'Combined with the suggestion that boxes may have been on top of the smouldering cigarette, compressing and containing the heat, this made it more likely items would ignite. The salon was totally gutted when an inferno started by a discarded cigarette ripped through it. The 16-year-old girl who started the fire was today told she will not face trial for arson as she had only been 'careless' The family of Stephen Hunt visit the scene where he died. The girl who started the fire is said to have dropped a cigarette while standing near the shop's fire exit which rolled underneath the door and set boxes alight . Firefighters enter the remains of music venue NQ Live in Manchester which was also destroyed by the fire (left). Dozens of floral tributes to fireman Stephen Hunt were left at the scene (right) 'It was a hot day and there was a gap beneath the door and as a result experts were unable to exclude a chimney effect as air was drawn under the gap underneath the door and the fire began. 'The conclusion is the Crown's case, which had previously been based on scientific evidence which excluded accidental ignition, can no longer be sustained, so I offer no evidence.' The teenager, who did not attend court, was initially arrested along with another 15-year-old girl but she was the only one charged. Throwing the case out, Judge Michael Henshell said: 'I

Scientists initially stated the fire could not have been started accidentally . But they now say discarded cigarette near the fire exit could have caused it .

Punched, elbowed, apparently bitten. Just another night for an Atletico Madrid striker. Yet this was not Diego Costa circa 2010 to 2014. This was Mario Mandzukic involved in bust-up after bust-up as he shed blood and sweat against great rivals Real Madrid at the Vicente Calderon. When Atletico allowed Costa to sign for Chelsea on July 1, 2014, Diego Simeone may have fretted about losing his street fighter. Not for long, however. Just nine days later, he bought Mandzukic from Bayern Munich, and the Croatia international looked every bit as aggressive on Tuesday night. Blood pours from Mario Mandzukic's face during the Champions League quarter-final first leg in Madrid . Sergio Ramos and Atletico Madrid striker Mandzukic continually clashed on Tuesday night during the tie . Mandzukic proved he is a warrior with his performance against Real Madrid, just as Diego Costa was . Costa gives John Terry, who is now his Chelsea team-mate, a stern look during a Champions League tie . Nobody elbowed their way to the top quite like Costa – from the streets of Brazil, to Spain, to England – and the same went for Mandzukic in the Champions League quarter-final first leg. The 28-year-old came to blows with defenders Sergio Ramos and Dani Carvajal – drawing blood after an elbow to the face from the former, while receiving a punch, and possibly a bite, from the latter. ITV pundit Paul Scholes said Mandzukic 'made a meal of things' yet the evidence was there for all to see, pouring down his face. Round two awaits at the Bernabeu next week. Yet Mandzukic was as culpable as he was the victim. He committed seven fouls, compared to 11 in total by Real Madrid, and it was more than any player has managed in a Champions League game against the winners of La Decima before. The long-ball tactic by Atletico was not working, nor did Mandzukic have enough pace to beat a defence boasting Raphael Varane. He had zero shots on or off target, completed just 18 passes over 90 minutes, and lacked the pace and darting runs Costa delivers. Yet this was about playing rough, rather than scoring goals, and he played the role of warrior to perfection. So much so that Simeone – albeit riskily – substituted his partner, Antoine Griezmann, after 77 minutes instead of the man on thin ice. Mandzukic clashed with Dani Carvajal during the quarter-final first leg and played rough all night . Mandzukic's heat map, who had zero shots on or off target, and completed just 18 passes over 90 minutes . Mandzukic, despite failing to conjure a chance on Tuesday night, is a natural striker. His CV includes Dinamo Zagreb, Wolfsburg and Bayern Munich, and he was imposing at every club. Fifty-six goals in 132 appearances in Croatia's Prva HNL. Fifty-three in 110 in Germany's Bundesliga. All that added to Simeone feeling Mandzukic was next in line at a forward-thinking club that have a history of great strikers which stretches back decades. No sooner had Fernando Torres left in 2007 for Liverpool,

The Atletico striker came to blows with Sergio Ramos and Dani Carvajal . Atletico have a history of buying great strikers after selling their forwards . Diego Simeone has bought the closest thing to Diego Costa he could find . Mandzukic differs from Costa in style of play but proved as aggressive .

It turns out, falling at the first hurdle and not even being inviting to interview can be down to your CV, new research has revealed. Conducted by research firm YouGov for higher education school, GSM London, 600 employees and senior executives were surveyed to find out their biggest resume peeves. A survey of 600 employers and senior executives has revealed that the biggest CV blunder is spelling or grammar mistakes . It has been revealed that the worst CV blunder is a spelling or grammatical mistake, with a whopping 87 per cent of the 600 employers admitting that they find it annoying. Other high ranking errors are incorrect personal information (wrong contact names and companies), and also if key information such as contact details are missing. Unsurprisingly, brevity is valued, with a massive 46 per cent of the polled senior executives finding long waffling CVs irritating, with only 26 per cent disliking short resumes. Another high ranking resume error flagged by employers is incorrect personal information . The survey also revealed that employers prefer a professional quality to a CV, with nearly half (44 per cent) disliking if the tone seemed too informal or casual. Although ranking relatively low in the scheme of annoying resume errors, senior execs also found attached images of applicant irritating.

Ever decided against an outfit because you've already been tagged in it on Facebook? You're not alone. Britons apparently spend £815million a year to ‘social media proof’ their wardrobe, with men forking out more than women, according to a new study. The research into the rise of the 'insta-wardrobe', which polled 2,000 adults, revealed nearly one third buy new clothes just to avoid being multi-tagged in the same outfit. Brits spend £815m a year to 'social media proof' their wardrobe, according to a new survey . Almost a fifth said that they would refuse to wear an outfit again if they knew there was a chance of appearing wearing the same thing online, the study showed. And, in a surprising result, men appeared to be the most social-conscious gender, spending an average of £61 to safe-guard against this modern day anxiety, as opposed to women’s £53.50. As social media has made fashion and style more accessible than ever, it drives how we shop and what we wear. Facebook recorded 1.39 billion users at the end of 2014, with Instagram growing to over 300 million users with over 70 million photos and videos being shared every day. Almost a fifth of those polled said that they would refuse to wear an outfit again if they knew there was a chance of appearing in the same outfit online (stock image) Fashion industry commentator Lily Melrose says she is constantly inspired to try new styles by other bloggers on social media . The average adult has 338 Facebook friends, meaning their style selfies are being reviewed and commented on by hundreds of people with each upload. Indeed, one in four of those surveyed by TK Maxx said that gaining comments and likes on their outfits on social media inspires them to try new styles. And sources of style inspiration are also changing; 11 per cent of those polled credited bloggers as more inspirational than fashion designers, with fashion news often breaking exclusively via Facebook and Twitter. Bloggers are now gracing the cover of Vogue and fashion designers are live streaming their shows. Lily Melrose, fashion blogger and industry commentator, commented: 'Instagrammers and bloggers are undoubtedly the new tastemakers of obtainable and relatable style. 'Social media has totally changed the face of fashion today and the way we shop. 'The beauty of social sharing sites is that you can be inspired by such a wide range of people, from your friends, bloggers, celebrities and family. 'On social media there is something for everyone as unique and individual looks are celebrated and shared. 'I can’t count the times I’ve been inspired by another blogger or someone on my Instagram page to try something new and I love sharing my looks with my readers.' Deborah Dolce, Group Brand & Marketing Director at TK Maxx said: 'Social media is moving people toward a wide range of fashion ideals and style icons. 'While celebrity culture is still strong, we now look to a much broader base of people for inspiration from our friends to bloggers to online style trailblazers. Social

A Bosnian town, home to more than 200 sets of twins in a population of 20,000 has claimed that it is the world's multiple birth capital and wants to use that fact to turn it into a tourist attraction. Officials in Buzim, north west Bosnia said their home should be known as the 'Town of Twins', due to the unusually high number of multiple births. Local journalist Nedzib Vucelj noticed the phenomena when his wife Emira gave birth to twins during the 1992-95 civil war. Edita and Elma Pajalic are among the 200 sets of twins in the Bosnian town of Buzim . Samed and Sara Dizdarevic live in the town which has a far higher than normal rate of multiple births . Local journalist Nedzip Bucelj noticed the number of twins such as Adisa, left and Adis Muratovic, right . He said he went to his neigbours seeking to borrow a buggy to carry the babies, only to discover they had given it to a third family who also had multiple babies. He said: 'That's when I realised just how many twins were here.' Mr Vucelj found that during the war, there were at least 21 sets of twins born, however he believes the figure is far higher as many residents left to escape the fighting and to escape poverty. Using his Facebook page 'Buzim - The Town of Twins', Mr Vucelj has identified at least 200 sets of twins. Now the town's mayor Agan Bunic has backed the initiative believing it could help drive tourism in the area which relies on harvesting raspberries and chestnuts. He said: '[There could be] annual meetings of twins from Busim and across the country, the first gathering of its kind in Bosnia.' Local politicians want an annual twin festival for people such as Dzenisa, left, and Merisa Kaukovic, right . At least 21 sets of twins were born during the civil war, pictured Almin, left, and Almina Duranovic right . Some experts believe the high number of twins could be genetic, pictured, Admir and Sadmir Bajric . According to doctors at the local hospital, a set of twins can be expected once in every 88 births. However, medical records proving the total number of multiple births is incomplete due to the conflict. However, there are suggestions that inbreeding could increase the number of tiwns. Mayor Bunic added: 'The local people mostly marry among themselves, this is a pretty much traditional and patriarchal community.' Zumreta Hodzic, municipal birth registrar said there is some truth behind Mr Vucej's theory: 'I remember the years when nearly each class in the school had twins; there were also triplets.' Kemal Dizdarevic, an unemployed father of 17-month-old twin boys, said there was a history of twins in his family and his wife's. 'Maybe they will be sportsmen. They can become anything, just not politicians.' Some of Buzim's twins may not have been registered due to the war. Pictured Merjema and Merisa Baltic . Internationally, a set of twins can be expected every 88 births. Pictured, Ilhan, left, and Elhan Hilic,

Summary: Buzim in north west Bosnia saw 21 sets of twins born during the civil war . Researchers believe there are more than 200 sets of twins in the town . More are believed to have fled due to the civil war and grinding poverty . The mayor now wants to hold a convention for twins to boos tourism .


Jack Grealish wants to replace the Wembley misery he suffered as a fan with joy as a player when Aston Villa face Liverpool in the FA Cup semi-final. Twice the teenage winger visited the national stadium to cheer on his boyhood club in 2010 but Villa lost both times, to Manchester United in the League Cup final and Chelsea in the FA Cup final four. Grealish, 19, was handed his first Premier League start by Tim Sherwood in the 3-3 draw with Queens Park Rangers and is hopeful of retaining his place for the April 19 date. Jack Grealish made his first Premier League start for Aston Villa against QPR on Tuesday night . Grealish saw Villa lose twice at Wembley in 2010 - in the League Cup final and in the FA Cup semi-final . ‘I went twice to Wembley as a fan, the Man U game and Chelsea game five years ago,’ said Grealish. ‘Unfortunately we didn’t win either of them, hopefully this time we can go and get a result. ‘It would be brilliant to stay in the team for Wembley but at the end of the day the gaffer will pick who he thinks he will win. I go with the flow. ‘To start for my boyhood club was a dream come true. I hope towards the end of the season I can play more of a part and help the team stay in the division.’ Wayne Rooney scores for United as Villa were beaten 2-1 in the 2010 League Cup final at Wembley . Frank Lampard finds the target during Villa's 3-0 defeat by Chelsea in the FA Cup semi-final in 2010 . Villa are three points above the drop zone but Grealish says manager Tim Sherwood has bred confidence throughout the squad. ‘He’s so positive around the place, gives everyone a boost which you can see in people’s performances,’ Grealish added. ‘He’s given me my first start in a crucial game which I’m really grateful for. You can see what he did at Tottenham with the young lads, bringing them through. Grealish expressed his gratitude towards manager Tim Sherwood for giving him his first start . ‘Here he’s brought the younger lads to come and train next to the first team, which is so little but means so much.’ The return to form of Christian Benteke also inspires survival hope. ‘Yes, when you have Christian in the team who can score goals every game,’ Grealish said. ‘We are going to go in Saturday's game (at Tottenham) positive and 100 per cent we will stay up.’

Summary: Aston Villa take on Liverpool in the FA Cup semi-final on April 19 . Midfielder Jack Grealish watched Villa as a fan at Wembley twice in 2010 . They lost to Man United and Chelsea in the League Cup and FA Cup . Grealish is hoping to replace that misery as a fan with joy as a player .

Georgia high school basketball coach Greg Scott hadn't been feeling well lately, so on Monday he went to his doctor where he was shocked to discover he had leukemia. Less than 24 hours after the devastating diagnosis, the 51-year-old married father of two and grandfather unexpectedly succumbed to the deadly disease. For the past eight years, Scott had taught special education and social studies at Cass High School and was the school's head basketball coach. Sudden death: Less than 24 hours after Georgia high school basketball coach Greg Scott (left) was diagnosed with leukemia, he succumbed to the illness . Mentor: For the past eight years, Scott (pictured right with his son) had taught special education and social studies at Cass High School and was the school's head basketball coach . Towering figure: The teacher and sports coach was universally remembered as a deeply caring, wise man who was committed to his students and players . But those who knew him, including his colleagues and players, say there was much more to Scott than his love of sports. False hope: Initially, Scott (pictured with daughter Cieanna) and his family were told that his leukemia was treatable . Greg Scott, 51, a basketball coach at Cass High School in Georgia, likely had contracted a fast-moving type of leukemia, known as acute myeloid leukemia, months before his death but was diagnosed only a day before he lost his brief battle with the illness. Leukemia is a type of cancer that starts in cells that form new blood cells. These cells are found in the soft, inner part of the bones called the bone marrow. In patients who suffers from AML, the cancer grows quickly, and if not treated, could be fatal in a matter of months. With acute types of leukemia such as AML, bone marrow cells do not mature the way they're supposed to. These immature cells, called blast cells, just keep building up. Because it is ‘acute,’ this type of leukemia can spread quickly to the blood and to other parts of the body such as lymph nodes; liver; spleen; brain and spinal cord, as well as testicles in men. This type of cancer is considered rare and has a five-year survival rate of only 24 per cent. AML can be treated with radiation, chemotherapy stem cell transplant, but like with other types of cancer, early detection is key. ‘He was more about teaching kids how to be good people,’ Principal Mike Nelson told Atlanta Journal Constitution. ‘He wasn’t worried about winning or losses.’ A spokeswoman for the Bartow County Schools said Scott had fallen ill a few weeks ago and was diagnosed with pneumonia. After a week off for Spring Break, the coach returned to work Monday but still was not feeling well. The 51-year-old school staffer took a sick day and sought medical treatment. Tests showed that the father of two had leukemia - a potentially terminal cancer of the blood. He was taken to Northside Hospital that day, where he suddenly passed away Wednesday morning. Coach Scott was described

Summary: Cass High School head basketball coach Greg Scott, 51, lost his short battle with leukemia Wednesday . Family were initially told Scott's blood cancer was treatable, but the disease proved to be fast-moving . The teacher and coach is survived by his wife, two children and a young grandchild .


The son of the Canadian Consul General in Miami is behind bars after a gunfight erupted on Monday, and her other son is dead. Marc Wabafiyebazu, 15, has been arrested for felony murder and his brother Jean, 17, was shot dead after an incident in which the two reportedly tried to rob a group of Miami drug dealers. Their mother is Roxanne Dubé, who was only recently appointed to the role of consul general in Miami. Scroll down for video . Jean Wabafiyebazu (left) was killed and his brother Marc (right) has been arrested after a gunfight erupted during a drug deal on Monday . Their mother is Roxanne Dubé (above), the recently appointed Canadian Consul General in Miami . According to the Miami Herald, police believe the two young men were armed with guns as they tried to rob a group of men during a drug deal at a home in the Coral Way area. The boys had reportedly agreed to purchase two pounds of marijuana at a cost of $5,000, and driven to the house under the guise of making said purchase in their mother's BMW with diplomatic plates. Police claim that their plan was to then rob the drug dealers. Gunfire broke out soon after they entered, and Jean and Joshua Wright were killed, while Anthony Rodriguez was wounded. Marc was in the car when this incident occurred. Both Marc and Rodriguez were arrested under a Florida law that says anyone who participates in a violent felony that results in death can be charged with murder. Rodriguez has also been charged with possession of marijuana with intent to sell. A second man was reportedly with Jean when he went to rob the drug dealers, though his identity is not known at this time.

Police are investigating claims by a former royal footman that palace aides tried to force him into an orgy, it was revealed yesterday. Christopher Lawler said he was pinned to a chair and groped by a male member of staff on his first day working at Clarence House. The ordeal left him in tears and he left the job the same day. He finally decided to contact palace officials again last year after inquiries began into alleged cover-ups of child sex abuse by a VIP paedophile ring in the 1970s and 80s. Police are investigating claims made by a former royal footman that Clarence House aides tried to force him into an orgy in the 1970s . But his complaints were ignored for months before the police were finally notified, he claims. Mr Lawler, now 64, said the attempted abuse at the Queen Mother’s London residence happened in January 1978 when he was 27. He said he was accosted after he walked into a bedroom to look for a pen on his first shift. Two men offered him a drink before two other men joined them – one a senior member of staff, he said. He was asked if he was gay before a younger man took his trousers off and began performing a sex act on himself. ‘That prompted another guy to put his hand on my leg and then he grabbed me,’ he told the Sunday People. ‘I was staggered. The younger man then came up behind me and gripped me, holding me in the chair. Mr Lawler worked at Clarence House when the Queen Mother used it as her London residence . ‘They were trying to undo my trousers but I managed to jump up and burst out of the room.’ Afterwards, Mr Lawler said he was followed by two men and threatened to keep quiet. A complaint he made that day allegedly drew an angry response from Clarence House – so he packed his bags immediately. Mr Lawler, a former Port of Liverpool police officer, said he was ‘haunted’ by the incident for years. After hearing about the probe into historical cases of child abuse last year he wrote to the Palace, but was twice rebuffed. Months later the complaint was finally passed to Scotland Yard. A retired royal aide, who is now in his 80s, was reportedly interviewed but denied he was involved because he was working for the Queen in Balmoral at the time. Mr Lawler has now been told by the Palace that the Royal Household would work ‘exhaustively and co-operatively’ with any police probe. A police spokesman said it would be inappropriate to comment ‘as investigations continue’.

Summary: Christopher Lawler claims he was pinned to a chair and groped by staff . He left job at Clarence House the same day as alleged incident in 1978 . Mr Lawler, now 68, claims he reported his account but was twice ignored . The palace is now 'cooperating' with police to investigate historic claims .


It is easy to be envious of celebrities who upload luxurious photos on Instagram from their private planes or VIP lounges. But a life spent criss-crossing the globe isn't always as exciting and glamorous as we may think. Proving that stars aren't immune to the everyday problems the average traveller faces, professional golfer Russell Henley received a lot of sympathy when United Airlines - the official carrier of the PGA - apparently 'lost' his clubs. He is not the only one to have had a less-than-ideal experience, with Kim Kardashian, Colleen Rooney and Maisie Williams joining the ranks of irritated travellers. Pro-golfer Russell Henley flew to Georgia last Sunday - sadly his golf clubs did not . Russell Henley tweeted his frustration to United Airlines, who misplaced his golf clubs when he was en route to the Master's tournament this week . RUSSELL HENLEY . Starring in the Master's golf tournament in Georgia this week is one of the highlights of a pro-golfer's professional years. Russell Henley flew in for the prestigious competition last Sunday to prepare - however his golf clubs did not. But, ever the professional, the sportsman didn't have a meltdown on Twitter, he simply used his social media site to point out that he had a 'tourney' to play in this week. Clearly, his cool-headed response paid off and just six hours later, United returned his clubs to him. Henley was quick to thank the airline and even apologised 'for the mix-up'. Naomi Campbell at the airport from a flight from London. The model flew into a rage when her suitcases were not loaded onto her plane and demanded the captain find them and personally show them to her . NAOMI CAMPBELL . The jetsetting model is infamous for her temper and it seems she was not impressed when informed she was among passengers whose bags had failed to be loaded on a British Airways flight from London to Los Angeles in April 2008. The captain made the decision to personally speak to her to apologise for the error, but the model flew into a rage at the mishap, which happened shortly after the disastrous opening of BA's Terminal 5 at Heathrow - when problems with baggage systems meant many passengers were forced to fly without their luggage. Uxbridge Magistrates' Court heard how the model shouted at the captain saying: 'I can't believe you have lost my f****** bag. Bring me my f****** bags now.' When he walked off she was reported to shout after him claiming: 'You are a racist. You wouldn't be doing this if I was white.' She was later forcibly removed from the plane by police with whom she had a further confrontation. She later pleaded guilty to two counts of assaulting a police officer, one count of disorderly conduct likely to cause harassment, alarm or distress and using threatening, abusive words or behaviour. The star was fined £2,300, ordered to pay £200 in compensation to the police officers she attacked, £150 to the BA captain and complete 200 hours of community service. Stark

A chef has created a 10in-tall, half-kilogram burger piled with six forms of three different meats and containing a whopping 2,000 calories. The Whole Damn Farm, which costs £13.50, is the creation of Sam Longhurst, head chef of Splendid Kitchen, Manchester. He devised the mega meal - which contains two beef patties and a whole fried chicken thigh - after he was challenged by diners to create a burger containing three kinds of meat. The Whole Damn Farm burger features two beef burgers, homemade bacon jam, ham chunks, a whole chicken thigh, barbequed pulled pork and bacon rashers . Ready, get set, go! Customer Angela Fox gets ready to take on the mighty meat challenge . The monstrous meat feast has two beef burgers weighing 220g, a layer of homemade bacon jam, 100g of ham chunks and a 150g whole battered and fried chicken thigh. Added to that is 80g of barbequed pulled pork and four rashers of bacon all sandwiched between two brioche buns. With a meat equivalent of six Big Macs the burger was created after a customer presented with the restaurant's 'Cow & Chicken' burger - a feast in its own right - remarked, 'It's almost the whole damn farm.' Mr Longhurst said: 'We are always up for a challenge and when a customer seemed disappointed by a burger that only contained beef and chicken, we knew we had to take it one step further. 'You could say we've taken it several steps further as there are six different forms of meat on there. I think it'll keep the punters satisfied.' The head chef joined forces with owner Mike Edge to set out to achieve what might constitute a whole farmyard of animals in one meal.

Mr Longhurst, who lives in Salford with his wife and eight-year-old son Matthew, said: 'It's amusing when people are cocky and decide to go for it, as it's a monster of a burger and they don't realise that. I have only just managed to eat it myself. 'It's loads of fun making stuff that's a little bit ridiculous. I experiment with cooking at home too. 'Matthew and I will make homemade burgers stuffed with cheese and cold meats, so I think of The Whole Damn Farm burger as a supersized version of that. 'I think Matthew would be scared of it, to be honest, a burger the same size as his head.' Mr Edge said: 'We wanted something show-stopping; we haven't gone down the road of using crisps and sweets as toppings, where it starts to get silly. 'All our dishes are quite fresh-tasting with just the odd strange ingredient.'

US officials are expected to stop prosecuting families of American hostages who communicate with kidnappers abroad or raise funds and pay ransoms. A National Counterterrorism Center advisory group, ordered by the White House, is expected to recommend what would mark a radical shift in US hostage policy, ABC news reported on Sunday. The NCTC interviewed families of hostages, including the parents of journalist James Foley, who was killed by Islamic State fighters. The family of a US contractor held by Al-Qaeda militants, Warren Weinstein (above), confirmed they paid a ransom in an attempt to secure his release which was reported in the amount of $250,000 . Foley's mother Diane said that officials from President Barack Obama's administration repeatedly told her family it was illegal to try to raise a ransom to free her son, and warned that her family could face prosecution for doing so. The Obama administration has denied making any such threats. 'There will be absolutely zero chance of any family member of an American held hostage overseas ever facing jail themselves, or even the threat of prosecution, for trying to free their loved ones,' a senior official told ABC News. Meanwhile, the family of US contractor Warren Weinstein, who was snatched by Al-Qaeda in Pakistan in 2011, confirmed it had paid a ransom to try to secure his release, which was in the amount of $250,000, according to CBS News. A spokesman for the family said it had 'made every effort to engage with those holding him or those with the power to find and rescue him.' 'This is an ordinary American family and they are not familiar with how one manages a kidnapping,' the spokesman added. Hostage James Foley was killed by Islamic State fighters. His mother Diane said that officials from President Barack Obama's administration repeatedly told her family it was illegal to try to raise a ransom to free her son . 'As such, they took the advice of those in government who deal with such issues on a regular basis and were disappointed that their efforts were not ultimately successful.' It was unclear what sort of advice the family received from US government officials. Diane Foley welcomed the potential policy shift, which officials discussed with her last week. 'There's a lot that needs to be fixed,' she told ABC News. She said the past threats were 'the straw that broke the camel's back. It was incredible.' A number of hostage families expressed outrage after US Army Sergeant Bowe Bergdahl was freed by the Haqqani Network in Pakistan a year ago in exchange for the release of five Taliban leaders held at the Guantanamo Bay military prison. Army Lieutenant General Bennet Sacolick, who previously headed the elite Delta Force counterterrorism unit, is heading the hostage policy review team, along with his NCTC staff.

A GP has warned the health service is at 'breaking point' as he faces the challenge of providing a safe standard of care for 4,300 patients on his books. Dr Arfon Williams is now the only doctor available across two rural practices in North Wales, after his partner and colleague of 20 years retired at the end of March. His surgery has been unable to attract a replacement and is currently functioning with a skeleton service, Dr Williams said. Health bosses responsible for North Wales said difficulties recruiting GPs is a national issue, adding they are exploring a number of options. Welsh GP, Dr Arfon Williams, is now the only doctor available across two rural practices, that serve 4,300 patients in North Wales (file picture posed by models) Dr Williams is based at Ty Doctor in Nefyn, Gwynedd, pictured. He said: 'We cover a rural area from two sites so it is now going to prove incredibly difficult to provide a realistic, safe service for our patients, but we will endeavour to do so' 'We used to be a three-partner practice, which cares for 4,300 patients and a very large holiday population in the summer,' Dr Williams said. 'We cover a rural area from two sites so it is now going to prove incredibly difficult to provide a realistic, safe service for our patients, but we will endeavour to do so.' Dr Williams, who is based at Ty Doctor in Nefyn, Gwynedd, said he fears areas such as the Llŷn Peninsula in north Wales will become 'no-go' areas for young, aspiring GPs as none of them want to jump on a 'sinking ship'. He added: 'I want the health board to recognise the severity of the situation here. 'We have been informing the health authority of this impending recruitment crisis for many years. 'Unfortunately little, if anything, has been done and the system is now at breaking point. 'I would be grateful if the health board could use all resources at their disposal to do all that they can so that we can retain a decent service to our patients which is safe, and provide it to the highest possible standards. 'Ninety per cent of NHS consultations are provided in primary care. 'It is inevitable that the continued lack of investment in primary care is having a knock-on effect on secondary care. 'When there are 10 ambulances sat outside the A&E department of the local district general hospital on a daily basis, it does not take a genius to work out that the system is broken. 'Subsequently, response times for ambulances are not met, A&E departments are full to bursting, every hospital bed is taken as there is chronic under capacity. 'GPs are sent daily e-mails requesting that we shouldn't admit patients unnecessarily. 'Due to unrelenting pressure on beds, patients are often discharged too soon, and without adequate social care provision. 'This is a year-round problem, no longer to be blamed on winter pressures. 'The system is broken. Anyone who denies this simply does not understand.' A spokesperson for Betsi Cadwaladr University

Summary: Rural practice in North Wales left with one GP to care for 4,300 patients . Dr Afron Williams is the sole doctor after his two partners retired . He warns the NHS is at 'breaking point' adding that it will be 'incredibly difficult to provide realistic, safe service for our patients' Health board said recruiting GPs is a national problem but said they are exploring both short and long term options to relieve the pressure .
