Britain's intelligence agencies have been ordered to destroy information they got illegally by spying on confidential communications between a Libyan dissident and his lawyers, a watchdog has ruled. GCHQ, the Government’s listening post, unlawfully intercepted telephone calls and emails from Sami al-Saadi – even though the legally-privileged material was protected by strict rules. In a landmark ruling yesterday, the Investigatory Powers Tribunal (IPT) the only judicial body with the power to investigate the security services, ordered spies to destroy two copies of the sensitive eavesdropped communications. Government Communication Headquarters (GCHQ) in Cheltenham. The Government’s listening post unlawfully intercepted telephone calls and emails from Sami al-Saadi, it has been ruled . GCHQ confessed it intercepted confidential conversations between Mr al-Saadi (pictured) and his lawyer . Mr al-Saadi has fought a legal battle against the British Government claiming it was complicit in kidnapping him and sending him back to his homeland to be tortured by the Gaddafi regime. But the IPT said the dissident should not receive compensation for breaching Article 8 of the European Convention on Human Rights, the right to private and family life. Intelligence chiefs sparked fury in February by admitting that they had unlawfully listened in to lawyer-client communications even though they are generally covered by 'legal professional privilege' to protect privacy and the right to a free trial. Now GCHQ has confessed it intercepted confidential conversations between Mr al-Saadi and his lawyer. The IPT rejected similar claims by other Libyan claimants including Abdel Hakim Belhadj, another prominent anti-Gaddafi campaigner. Britain has already paid Mr al-Saadi £2.2million compensation after he took legal action over MI6's role in his abduction, imprisonment and mistreatment by Libya. Mr Belhadj is currently suing the UK. It has not been disclosed what type of material the two documents contained or when they were recorded but they are likely to be transcripts of telephone conversations secretly intercepted by GCHQ. Last night Mr al-Saadi said: ‘I had always been told I had a right to communicate with my lawyers about this torture case in private, but that clearly wasn’t the case. Tony Blair with former Libyan dictator Muammar Gaddafi. Mr al-Saadi has fought a legal battle against the British Government claiming it was complicit in kidnapping him and sending him back to his homeland to be tortured by the Gaddafi regime . ‘This was illegal behaviour and I hope now that the right to take legal advice in private will never be ignored again.’ Richard Stein, his solicitor, said: ‘GCHQ unlawfully spied on privileged legal communications for years, and the secret oversight mechanisms failed to stop it. ‘This marks the end of GCHQ’s standard boilerplate response that its activities are lawful, necessary and proportionate. I am sure that the unlawful behaviour we have uncovered in this case is the tip of the iceberg.’ Cori Crider, of legal charity Reprieve, which represented the families, said: ‘GCHQ spied on privileged legal communications, in a case where they were being sued by a rendition and torture victim. ‘We are pleased that one man has finally beaten the security services in

Summary: Sami al-Saadi's communications with his lawyer were illegally intercepted . The Investigatory Powers Tribunal overseeing the security services has ordered spies to destroy two copies of the eavesdropped communications . Mr al-Saadi claims the British Government was complicit in kidnapping him and sending him back to Libya to be tortured by the Gadaffi regime .

Britain will still be running a budget deficit at the end of the decade despite plans to return the country to the black, the International Monetary Fund warned last night. The global watchdog said the state will continue to spend more on public services and other areas such as welfare and overseas aid than it raises in tax throughout the next parliament. The projection underlines just how hard it will be for the next government to eliminate the country’s annual deficit, which hit a record £153billion under Labour in 2009-10 and now stands at £90billion. The International Monetary Fund (managing director, Christine Lagarde, pictured) warned Britain will still be running a budget deficit at the end of the decade, despite plans to return the country to the black . The Conservatives have pledged to return Britain to the black in 2018-19 with a surplus of £5.2billion – the first since 2001. David Cameron and George Osborne then plan to run a surplus of £7billion in 2019-20. But the IMF predicted that there will still be a deficit of £7billion that year – even after a decade of austerity. The warning, in the Fund’s Fiscal Monitor report into government finances around the world, will alarm the Tories in particular as they attempt to persuade voters that only they can balance the books. But it also raises the prospect of even higher borrowing under a Labour government. The report warned that ‘uncertainties pertaining to the May elections’ mean spending may not be cut as fast as planned. The Conservatives have pledged to return Britain to the black in 2018-19 with a surplus of £5.2billion – the first since 2001 . Ed Miliband is already planning a slower pace of deficit reduction than the Tories with experts warning he could be borrowing around £30billion a year by the end of the decade. But that figure is likely to be even higher if the IMF is proved right and tax receipts do not live up to current expectations. Vitor Gaspar, director of fiscal affairs at the IMF, said it was crucial for all countries to get their public finances under control. He said governments ‘should build buffers in good times’ – echoing Mr Osborne’s pledge to ‘fix the roof while the sun is shining’. Speaking at the launch of the Fiscal Monitor in Washington, Mr Gaspar said: ‘Countries that fail to build buffers in good times often find themselves without fiscal space to manage a crisis and that is very costly.’ The bleak projections for the UK public finances come despite the IMF hailing ‘solid’ economic growth in the UK. It is now expecting growth of 2.7 per cent this year and 2.3 per cent next year – making Britain the second fastest growing economy in Group of Seven industrialised nations behind the United States.

Summary: Projection underlines next government's task to eliminate annual deficit . It hit a record £153billion under Labour in 2009/10 and is now £90billion . Tories pledged to return UK to black in 2018/19 with surplus of £5.2billion . But global watchdog predicts there will still be deficit of £7billion that year .

Goodbye to the brash, flash, bombastic Floyd Jnr. Well, more or less. Hello to the mature Mr Mayweather who weighs his words carefully and respects one and all. Well, mostly. He has been slammed for pronouncing himself superior to Ali so he said: 'I respect all the great champions of the past. But I've done just as much as Ali did. 'He was champion at heavyweight but I've won world titles in five divisions. He fought for a helluva cause (anti-Vietnam War) but I'm still sharp at age 38. Still going strong at age 38. 'He lost, once to man who'd only had seven fights previously. I'm undefeated. He called himself The Greatest so I call myself The Best Ever. I knew there would be a back-lash but I couldn't care less. 'He said he was greater than Sugar Ray Robinson and someone else will come along in the future to be criticised for believing he's the best.' The God question did not faze him: 'I also believe in God. I've been blessed in my life. I love God and I don't believe God takes sides (in fights). We are all God's children and I don't think he roots for which of us he wants to win.' Geroge Foreman is down on count two after being struck by Muhammad Ali's killer right-hander in 1974 . Ali looks on after he knocked Foreman to the canvas with the holy mother of all right-handers during the bout . Ali called himself The Greatest and the Rumble in the Jungle was voted the best sporting event of the century . Roach has characterised the fight as 'good against evil' but the barbs have not rattled Mayweather: 'I'm not going to say anything negative about Freddie Roach. Not against someone who's not 100 per cent healthy. He's entitled to say what he wants to say. It's better for me to say nothing at all. 'His fighter is not talking like that and it's only me and Pacquiao who will do the fighting. I wish Freddie well.' The new, considerate Floyd choked up a little when asked

Historians have unearthed nearly 2,000 perfectly preserved examples of poignant graffiti written on the walls of a cave 100 feet beneath the French countryside by doomed First World War soldiers just weeks before they were to join the fighting on the Western Front. The inscriptions were found in Naours - a two-hour drive north of Paris - and left for posterity by young men facing the horror of trench warfare a few dozen miles away at the Somme. The site's proximity to the battlefields, where more than a million men were killed or wounded, adds to the discovery's importance, with experts saying: 'It provides insight into how they found a sense of meaning in the conflict.' Scroll down for video . Poignant: The names of 9th Battalion Australians' G. Fitzhenry of Paddington, Sydney and Alistair Ross of Lismore are engraved on the walls of the former chalk quarry in Naours, northern France and dated July 1916 . Horror or war: The inscriptions were found in Naours - a two-hour drive north of Paris - and left for posterity by young men facing the doom of trench warfare a few dozen miles away at the Somme . A direction sign engraved with the names of soldiers who went on to fight at the Somme is seen at the site in Naours, northern France . Discovery: Nearly 2,000 century-old inscriptions that have recently come to light at the former chalk quarry in Naours, northern France . One inscription found in a rough-hewn passage 100 feet underground read: 'James Cockburn 8th Durham L.I.' It's cut so clean it could have been left yesterday. Only the date next to it - April 1, 1917 - roots it in the horrors of the First World War. The piece of graffiti is just one of nearly 2,000 century-old inscriptions that have recently come to light in Naours. 'It shows how soldiers form a sense of place and an understanding of their role in a harsh and hostile environment,' said historian Ross Wilson of Chichester University in Britain. Etchings, even scratched bas-reliefs, were left by many soldiers during the war. But those in Naours 'would be one of the highest concentrations of inscriptions on the Western Front' that stretches from Switzerland to the North Sea, said Wilson. Photographer Jeff Gusky has tallied 1,821 individual names: 731 Australians, 339 British, 55 Americans, a handful of French and Canadians and 662 others whose nationalities have yet to be traced. 'All these guys wanted to be remembered,' Gusky says, pointing out examples from Texas and Florida.

The stylist behind singer Rita Ora's unique, over-the-top hairstyles has revealed how much work the chart-topper has to put into ensuring her blonde locks remain totally healthy. Chris Appleton, who has been working with natural brunette Rita, 24, for the past two years, confessed to Daily Mail Online that her demanding haircare routine does require a hefty amount of work and 'maintenance'. 'We have to color the hair every three weeks,' he explained. 'We've managed to get the timing perfect so that she's not coloring it all the time. If you keep bleaching it, you push it too far and it can look awful, which has been done in the past by other celebrities! Scroll down for video . Style icon: Chris Appleton (R) has been working as singer Rita Ora's hairstylist for two years . Haircare regimen: According to Chris, Rita's blonde locks need to be colored every three weeks, a process which can dry out the hair if done too frequently . 'I also make my own hair masks, which I make her sleep in, to ensure that her hair stays in the best condition possible. 'I'm so strict with Rita, I want to make sure that her hair always looks great, and that means a lot of work. When she has any spare time, I make her condition.' But despite the seemingly endless hours of maintenance required in order to keep Rita's barnet looking its best, Chris insists that the singer isn't planning to follow in Kim Kardashian's footsteps and make a change to brunette any time soon. 'Blonde is such a statement, despite the fact that it's a lot of maintenance behind the scenes,' he said. 'We've never done anything deep or dark and we change the actual style so much that I'm eager to keep the color consistent.' The singer did have a chance to experiment with a darker hairstyle when she appeared in the recently-released Fifty Shades of Grey movie however; Rita's role as Mia, the younger sister of charismatic businessman Christian Grey, saw her don an extremely short, dark wig, which Chris believes helped Rita to separate herself from the character. Innovation: Every hairstyle that Rita models has something unique and different about it. 'I always want to do something to make her hair look special,' Chris explains . The girl with the pearl... hair: This embellished hairstyle is one of Chris' favorites . 'It worked for the film, because she wasn't Rita, she was Mia Grey, and I think that was a good thing,' Chris said. 'But I don't know if it's a style we will be trying out on Rita in real life!' While Rita might not be planning to replicate Mia's severe hairstyle any time soon however, Chris says that she is certainly not averse to experimenting with a variety of different looks - be they temporary, or permanent. Indeed, the decision to cut Rita's hair into a much shorter style just a few months ago was actually made on a whim, during a late-night styling session. 'I was talking to Rita

Summary: Hairstylist Chris Appleton explained the inspiration for 24-year-old Rita's unique and over-the-top hairstyles .

Unlike Kim Kardashian however, Chris doesn't believe Rita will be going back to brunette any time soon .

A playground in Tokyo has been found to have dangerously high levels of radiation, which has raised fears for the health of children in the area. Soil underneath a slide at the park in the Toshima ward in the north-east of the Japanese capital, showed radiation readings of up to 480 microsieverts per hour. This is nearly half the recommended annual limit of exposure for a person. Danger: Japanese authorities detected an unusually high level of radiation around playground equipment in this Tokyo park (pictured) Safety: Authorities cordoned off the park after high levels of radiation were detected underneath a slide . It was not immediately clear why radiation levels were so high in the park, which opened two years after the 2011 Fukushima disaster. Authorities believe that the radiation could be coming from something buried underneath the park. The playground has now been fenced off with an orange barricade. Park representative Kyoko Tsujimura said: 'We are still checking what caused these elevated radiation levels and what type of radioactive substance it is.' The city has set up a health advice office to answer queries from concerned parents. According to the International Commission on Radiological Protection recommendations, members of the public should not be exposed to more than 1000 microsieverts per year. Japan has seen heightened concern over radiation since the 2011 failure of a nuclear plant in Fukushima following an earthquake and tsunami, which led to leaks of radioactive water. In the months after the nuclear meltdowns, concerned parents and citizens began measuring radiation levels in Tokyo schools and parks. Thousands of people are still living in temporary shelters and have been unable to return home in areas closest to Tokyo Electric Power's nuclear plant. Elsewhere, a drone with a small amount of radiation was found on Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe's office building this week. Clean up: Workers carry away a container after extremely high levels of radiation were detected in the park . Tests: Following two rounds of testing, officials found high levels of radiation on a section of the equipment .

Blackpool marked their relegation into Sky Bet League One with a 1-1 draw against Reading, but the fireworks were restricted to outside of Bloomfield Road as long-suffering supporters held protests against Seasiders chairman Karl Oyston. The Tangerines' demotion into the third tier was finally confirmed on Easter Monday and that triggered pre-match public displays of fury from fans at the Oyston family's handling of the club on Tuesday. Dozens of supporters gathered outside the West Stand 45 minutes before kick-off and hurled eggs at the back of the directors' boxes before a flare, smoke bomb and firework were tossed into the cordoned-off area in front of the main reception area. Jamie O'Hara scored from the penalty spot to give Blackpool a lead against Reading on Tuesday night . But defender Grant Hall scored an own goal just after half-time to leave Lee Clark disappointed . Yakubu tussles with Costa Rica international Jose Cubero, who enjoyed a rare start for Blackpool . Blackpool: Lewis (Parish 73); Hall (Maher 50), Clarke, O'Dea, Dunne; Cubero, O'Hara, Perkins, Orlandi (Osavi-Samuel 78), Jacobs; Madine . Goal: O'Hara (pen, 6) Booked: O'Hara . Reading: Federici; Gunter, Pearce, Knight, Obita; McCleary (Mackie 45), Ake, Norwood, Robson-Kanu; Yakubu (Cox 78), Appiah (Pogrebnyak 45) Goal: Hall (OG, 46) Ref: G. Eltringham . Att: 9,614 . With stewards and police present, the scenes did not descend into violence but the message delivered from those in attendance was clear - they want Oyston to depart a team that this week became the first in the Football League to be relegated. On the pitch, Jamie O'Hara's early penalty was cancelled out by Grant Hall's unfortunate own goal just 20 seconds after the restart as the basement-dwelling Seasiders' winless run was extended to 13 games. Some of the supporters who congregated in front of the West Stand did not even walk into a half-empty stadium for the game and they missed their side taking a sixth-minute lead. Zat Knight got the wrong side of Sheffield Wednesday loanee Gary Madine and tripped him from behind, allowing O'Hara to step up and stroke the resulting penalty into the corner as Adam Federici guessed the wrong way. Blackpool fans gathered outside Bloomfield Road to protest against the Oyston family . Blackpool's main reception at Bloomfield Road was pelted with eggs before their game with Reading . A fan walks out of a Fish and Chips shop, next to a shop selling t-shirts and banners supporting protests . The cut-up pitch arguably denied the hosts a second as the ball bobbled away from David Perkins, who had orchestrated a three-on-two break, on the edge of the Royals' penalty area. Winger Michael Jacobs then blasted into the side-netting from 25 yards as Blackpool entered the interval with a one-goal lead. That disappeared 20 seconds after the restart, though, when the Royals made a lightning start to the second period. Pavel Pogrebnyak made inroads down the left flank and he squared for Yakubu, whose shot back across goal smashed against the unfortunate Hall before going over the line. Hall stayed on

Summary: Jamie O'Hara scored from the spot after just six minutes . But Grant Hall's own goal gave Reading a share of the spoils . Blackpool fans protested against owners, the Oyston family . The Seasiders need two more points to pass Stockport's 26 .

The family pictured above in a photo posted to Cantu's Facebook . Friends say Cantu had recently become strained by a lawsuit filed by a former investor in Moto and iNG, a restaurant Cantu shuttered last year. Last month, investor Alex Espalin accused Cantu in court papers of co-mingling funds from Moto to keep iNG afloat, even though he advised Cantu to close the business. He claimed Cantu stopped talking to him after he confronted him about using Moto's bank account for personal expenses including, trips, meals, a cookbook and other unrelated ventures. According to the lawsuit, Espalin initially invested $100,000 in Cantu's businesses and another $50,000 later on and had a 15 per cent ownership in Moto.

Food scientist: Cantu was known as a pioneer in the culinary field of molecular gastronomy. Above, a dish of raccoon meat is made to resemble a road kill scene at Moto . Fellow chef Matthias Merges lives just a few houses away from Cantu and his family, and last saw the chef four days ago when they talked about his business issues. 'We talked about Berrista [Cantu's cafe] a little bit. He was asking for some advice,' Merges told DNAinfo. Giving back: After mentor Charlie Trotter died in 2013, Cantu helped start the Trotter Project to mentor high school and college students in Trotter's memory . 'He definitely had a strain, from all publicity going around [from the lawsuit]. As we all know, it's tough. He talked about it. He just said, "It's a difficult situation." I told him just hang in there and power through it. 'I don't even know what to think. I see his girls almost every day.'

Sidonie, a well known band from Catalonia, created a rather tongue-in-cheek song during a recent Ryanair flight to Santiago de Compostela in northern Spain. The group, who posted the performance video to Facebook and Youtube, explained that they composed the tune after experiencing a 'lack of respect shown by Ryanair flight attendants.' In the video, the band's lead singer strums a ukulele as the group serenades passengers on board - despite Ryanair's scathing review of the sarcastic ditty. A well-known Spanish band from Catalonia, called Sidonie, sang an impromptu song aboard a Ryanair flight . While en route to Santiago, the band grew impatient with the alleged 'lack of respect' from flight attendants . Although sung in their native tongue, the lyrics read: 'Ryanair, how we like Ryanair, and its flight attendants, they could not be nicer'. Clearly meant to be ironic, some passengers even join in and sing or clap along as the band repeats the chorus during their impromptu performance. Explaining the motivation behind their hilarious video, the band wrote online: 'After receiving, repeatedly, the habitual lack of respect shown by flight attendants on the Ryanair route to Santiago, we were moved to compose and perform a song dedicated to them and their irritable airline.' Ryanair, however, wasn't as impressed with the band's performance. Robin Kiely, a spokesperson for the airline told MailOnline Travel: 'Sidonie? More like sit down mate. 'The lyrics are average, the vocals out of tune, the ukulele playing leaves a lot to be desired and there isn't one trumpet.' Taking matters into their own hands, the group composed and performed a tongue-in-cheek tune . As they paraded up and down the aisle of the plane, some passengers even began to sing along with the lyrics . The band also posted the video to Facebook, adding that the song was dedicated to the 'irritable airline' 'We much prefer our new on-time landing music, which will be heard on over 90 per cent of our flights this year, as we carry 100 million customers,' Kiely added. Ryanair is famous for complaints about its customer service and surcharges, and it has recently launched a marketing campaign and measures such as allocated seating to win over passengers. Since being posted on March 27, the video has been viewed over 24,000 times on YouTube and has been liked over 12,000 times on Facebook. MailOnline Travel has contacted Sidonie for comment about the video.

Summary: Sidonie, a well-known group from Catalonia, created and sang mid-flight .

The FBI and NYPD said on Wednesday that a reward of up to $115,000 is being offered for information leading to an arrest and conviction in the March 2008 bombing at the Times Square military recruitment station. No one was injured. But Police Commissioner William Bratton says people had walked past just moments before the device detonated in the early hours of March 6. Officials said the explosion may be connected to earlier unsolved bombings at the British and Mexican consulates. FBI footage showed the Times Square suspect placing the bomb and riding away on a bike. A bomb explodes outside the U.S. Armed Forces Recruiting Station in Times Square, New York on March 6, 2008.

Fortunately no one was injured in the blast which occurred seconds after people walked past . Authorities said the device was built using an ammunition can commonly found on battlefields in Iraq and Afghanistan. 'It was filled halfway with black powder and detonated using a time fuse,' the law enforcers said in a statement. 'Although no one was wounded, the device could have caused significant casualties if people had been close to the blast.' 'Someone knows those responsible for placing this device in the heart of New York City,' said FBI Assistant Director-in-Charge Diego Rodriguez. 'We need those people to come forward to help us solve this crime before they can strike again.' A statement from the FBI said the case remained a top priority of the FBI’s Joint Terrorism Task Force due to the seriousness of the crime. There was no statute of limitations.

The legal adviser to Alison Saunders was a barrister in the same chambers as the son of Lord Janner (pictured), it has emerged . The legal adviser to Alison Saunders was a barrister in the same chambers as the son of Lord Janner, it emerged last night. The Crown Prosecution Service confirmed that the Director of Public Prosecutions consulted Neil Moore – a barrister at 23 Essex Street where Daniel Janner worked – over whether to prosecute Lord Janner, The Times reported. And senior police officers probing allegations of child abuse offences against the Labour peer have reportedly raised concerns about Mr Moore's involvement in the decision to not proceed with his trial. Last night a CPS spokesman said Mrs Saunders made the decision not to prosecute on her own, and that Mr Moore told her he had been in chambers with Lord Janner's son before discussing the case. He said Mr Moore had acted properly at all times. In a further blow to Mrs Saunders, senior Conservative politican David Davis last night labelled her 'the worst DPP in modern times'. He told The Sun that the treatment of journalists charged with paying public officials was 'heavy-handed and lacking in judgment'. Mrs Saunders said it was her job to make 'very difficult decisions', but the Lord Janner row showed no sign of abating last night. The DPP justified her decision not to prosecute by saying experts agreed Lord Janner, 86, was in poor health due to advanced Alzheimer's disease. But she admitted the former Leicester West MP should have been charged three times before – in 1991, 2002 and 2007. Mrs Saunders said it was her job to make 'very difficult decisions', but the Lord Janner row showed no sign of abating last night . Mrs Saunders blamed police and prosecutors and launched an independent review, but her remarks stoked fears of an establishment cover-up. Yesterday, calls grew for a judicial review of the decision, which Leicestershire Police said it was considering. Simon Danczuk, the Labour MP who exposed Liberal MP Cyril Smith as a paedophile, said criticism of Mrs Saunders suggested something had 'clearly gone very badly wrong', adding: 'It's hard to see how her position remains tenable.' More questions emerged about Lord Janner's health last night as it was revealed he wrote to the House of Lords a fortnight ago to extend his role.

Malcolm Brabant spent two years in and out of mental institutions after a yellow fever vaccine . When award-winning BBC foreign correspondent Malcolm Brabant walked into a clinic one afternoon to have a yellow fever vaccine, he was warned the possible side-effects could be dizzy spells and a headache. Yet within 24 hours of having the jab, in April 2011, Malcolm had been reduced to a sweating, shivering wreck, gripped by a fever so strong it took two weeks and a spell in hospital before his temperature was brought down. Then the psychosis began. A shooting star, glimpsed from the balcony of his home, convinced Malcolm - who had no previous history of mental illness - that he was a modern-day Messiah. 'I went completely bonkers,' he says today. 'The vaccine fried my brain.' Malcolm, 59, who had the jab in preparation for an assignment in the Ivory Coast, believed his Kindle could fly, that dead friends were contacting him and that he could stop traffic just by thinking about it. He spent the next two years in and out of mental institutions, unable to work - and even attempted suicide. Fortunately, he has since made a full recovery. But Malcolm believes the yellow fever vaccine - available in High Street vaccination clinics, GP surgeries and even Boots - could have dangerous side-effects that affect more people than previously thought. Since its invention in 1951, more than 540 million doses of the vaccine have been given. Anyone travelling to parts of Africa or South America is advised to have it. Yellow fever is a serious viral infection spread by mosquito bites. Symptoms include fever, chills, loss of appetite and nausea. While many people recover after five or six days, 15 per cent enter a second, toxic phase, with recurring fever, abdominal pain, and jaundice due to liver damage. They may also start vomiting blood. This toxic phase is fatal in about 20 per cent of cases. Clearly a dangerous illness, there is no doubt vaccination can be life-saving. But Malcolm and others who say they have been adversely affected by the jab want the manufacturer to investigate. Malcolm, who for many years was the Beeb's man in Greece, had the jab in a clinic in Athens, where his family was living. Next morning, his new wife Trine, found him downstairs, shivering and sweating, his face beetroot red. 'I was beside myself with worry,' says Trine, 55, an author and journalist. 'It wasn't just the fever but the change in character. He became irrational, then emotional - crying.' When his fever showed no signs of relenting after five days, Trine took Malcolm to hospital. The doctors, who also discovered through blood tests that Malcolm had suffered recent liver damage, told him they believed he'd had an adverse reaction to the vaccine. He believes the yellow fever vaccine could have dangerous side-effects . They managed to lower his temperature. But his mental problems were only just beginning. Formerly agnostic, Malcolm became convinced he was Jesus, and two weeks after being admitted to hospital he

Boss Tim Sherwood backed Christian Benteke to fire Aston Villa to safety after the striker's crucial hat-trick saved a point against QPR. The forward's treble - his first in two years - clinched a pulsating 3-3 draw with their drop rivals as Villa edged further clear of the bottom three. Villa are three points above the Barclays Premier League drop zone and denied QPR the chance to leapfrog them in the table. Christian Benteke scored a stunning hat-trick as Aston Villa drew 3-3 against Queens Park Rangers . Manager Tim Sherwood said that Benteke can fire Villa to Premier League safety . Defeat would have left Villa in the relegation zone and behind QPR but Benteke struck a 25-yard free-kick with seven minutes left to save them and complete his treble. The Belgium international has seven goals in seven games under Sherwood and the boss hopes he can maintain his form to keep Villa up. He said: 'That's the plan. 'It doesn't come much better than that. He's a good player, I have always said it and he's in a rich vein of form. 'It's fantastic for him to score the goals, it's just a shame we couldn't get the three points. 'It's not about what you deserve, it's about what you get and we got one point. 'This could be a vital point come the end of the season in the end, when you go so late into the game and Christian has had to pull that out the bag we're grateful.' But Sherwood insisted Villa should have won after Benteke's first-half double, cancelling out Matt Phillips' opener, gave them a 2-1 lead at the break. He said: 'It's disappointing when you dominate a football match like that, the ref should have stopped it at half-time. QPR were only ahead for three minutes in the first half after Benteke equalised for the hosts at Villa Park . Benteke drove beyond Rob Green from the edge of the box to net his seventh goal of the season early on . 'I thought we tired in the second half but that's to be expected and two of those back four have trained about four times in eight weeks. We dropped off a little bit too deep and couldn't keep that pressure on them. 'But anyone who has seen that football match knows it shouldn't have been close.' Rangers hit back after the break through Clint Hill and Charlie Austin, the latter netting with just 12 minutes left. They have taken four points from their last two away games after winning just once on the road this season before Saturday's 4-1 win at West Brom. The draw, though, left them two points from safety having played a game more and boss Chris Ramsey admitted he was nervous after Austin's goal. He said: 'It's a long time, it's heart attack time for managers that. You can see you're going to win but you know there's a chance anything can happen, a free-kick, a corner or a bit of magic. Benteke's added two more, including this

Summary: Christian Benteke netted all three as Aston Villa drew 3-3 against QPR . The Belgian can fire Aston Villa to Premier League safety . That's the view of Tim Sherwood, who lauded his main striker .


Sandra Malcolm's body was discovered at her home in Cape Town, South Africa . A British ex-pat has been found hacked to death at her home in South Africa, it has emerged today. Sandra Malcolm's body was found at her Cape Town home by her grandson who reportedly climbed through a window when nobody answered the door. Reports in South Africa suggest the 74-year-old's attackers had mutilated her - although police have yet to confirm this. Mrs Malcolm, originally from Dundee in Scotland, was found on Sunday morning at the Capri Mews complex in the Marina Da Gama area of the city. The pensioner had been planning to return to Scotland next month to visit family in Tayside. She had lived in South Africa for 35 years and is survived by two daughters, three grandchildren and two great-grandchildren. Her nephew, Colin Chalmers, of Dundee, today said the murder had left the family 'distraught'. 'I'm absolutely gobsmacked, I've never had to deal with anything like this before, it's completely shocking. 'All I know is that my auntie has been murdered, I don't want to court any of the rumours around it because we know very little at this stage.' One neighbour, who asked not to be identified, told reporters they were horrified by the murder. He said: 'This is a quiet community, this is shocking, I still cannot believe it. 'I saw her on Saturday afternoon last. She had some friends over.' He described his murdered neighbour as 'friendly' and 'burly', adding: 'It's so strange because we didn't hear anything, no struggle or a gunshot. 'The grandson, we understand, found her after climbing through the bathroom window. 'I left for church before 10am and I walked past her flat and I didn't hear or see anything. When I came back from church I saw the police vans and they said she had been murdered. 'The family is so shaken they are not in a state to speak.' Details are still emerging of how the pensioner came to be found at her flat. Mrs Malcolm, originally from Dundee in Scotland, was found on Sunday morning at the Capri Mews complex in the Marina Da Gama area of the city (pictured) South African news networks reported that neighbours said the pensioner was last seen with friends on Saturday afternoon. Police in Cape Town declined to comment on the circumstances of her death but said a post-mortem will be conducted to determine the exact cause of death. Forensic experts and detectives combed the scene for hours on Sunday. Police spokesperson Captain FC Van Wyk said: 'The motive for the killing is unknown at this stage. A post-mortem will be held to establish the exact cause of death.' The murder comes amid a wave of anti-immigrant violence in South Africa. Hundreds of African immigrants have fled their homes in the country in recent weeks to escape xenophobic attacks and protests.

Summary: Reports suggest Sandra Malcolm's body was mutilated by her attackers . Pensioner, originally from Dundee, was found at her home in Cape Town . Her grandson made the discovery after climbing through a window when nobody answered the door .


The number plate that got Jeremy Clarkson and his former Top Gear colleagues harangued out of Argentina was a direct reference to the Falklands War, a judge has ruled. While the BBC claimed the plate, which read H982 FKL, was an 'unhappy coincidence', Maria Cristina Barrionuevo said they were deliberately 'provoking people' when they drove it through the country last year. In a report released earlier this week she slammed their actions as 'arrogant and disrespectful'. Scroll down for video . A judge has ruled the controversial number plate that led to Jeremy Clarkson and his Top Gear colleagues being thrown out of Argentina was a deliberate reference to the 1982 Falklands War . Clarkson and his colleagues fled the South American country last year when their convoy - which was led by a Porsche bearing the controversial number plate - came under attack. A village of Falklands War veterans targeted the team as they drove through Patagonia, with Clarkson claiming in one account that they stormed their hotel. They were accused of deliberately inciting conflict with the plate, an alleged reference to the 1982 Falklands War. Afterwards producers removed the plate and replaced it with another. Investigating whether this was illegal, Mrs Barrionuevo said: 'It should be understood that it is not up to me to investigate or evaluate the decision - arrogant and disrepectful to say the least - by the Top Gear production team to enter the country with one or more Malvinas-referenced number plates. 'Nor is it my job to gauge the reaction - anticipated - of citizens to such an offence. Clarkson (pictured this week) said an angry mob targeted the Top Gear team in their hotel. His producer, Andy Wilman (right), who announced his resignation on Wednesday, denied deliberately using the plate . 'My responsibility is to analyse whether a crime has been committed under Argentinian law in relation to the removal from the Porsche of the original number plate H982 FKL and its replacement by another.' Concluding Top Gear chiefs had not acted in 'bad faith' in changing the plates and their hand was forced by 'massive government and popular pressure', she added: 'It led them to remove the original number plate and replace it with another which in principle wouldn't have negative connotations with the aim of ending the main focus of conflict and avoiding violent reactions by locals which indeed ended up taking place. 'The change was not done in a surreptitious way, but with the knowledge and approval of the presenters who participated in meetings with the programme producers.' Local prosecutors have already been informed of the decision and are understood to be preparing an appeal. Judges in the nearby city of Rio Grande - where Clarkson’s Porsche is thought to be in storage - are now expected to be asked to order Clarkson and his pals to be called in for a court grilling by overturning Mrs Barrionuevo's decision. The group's convoy was attacked as they drove through Patagonia. They abandoned the cars in Argentina to flee the country . Clarkson,

Summary: The plate - H982 FKL - was on Clarkson's Porsche during Christmas special . Local veterans considered it a reference to the bloody 1982 Falklands War . Angry villagers attacked Top Gear convoy and the team fled the country . Judge ruled the number plate was deliberate reference despite BBC denial .


Ronny Deila is preparing for the William Hill Scottish Cup semi-final against Inverness, believing Celtic themselves provide the biggest hurdle to their treble hopes. The Scottish League Cup winners are eight points clear of Aberdeen at the top of the Scottish Premiership with six games remaining and strong favourites to make it four in a row. Asked ahead of the trip to Hampden Park on Sunday if he felt he had a treble-winning squad at his disposal, the Norwegian boss said: . Ronny Deila is preparing his Celtic side for Sunday's Scottish Cup semi-final against Inverness . As they ready themselves for the trip to Hampden Park, Celtic will be focused on treble hopes . 'We will see but I really believe that we can do it and now it is up to us. 'If we are performing well, we know that we are very hard to beat. 'We have shown that for a long, long time now and again, our biggest opponent is ourselves. 'We need to keep our mind on the right things. 'I have felt a sense of excitement for a long time. But it is very important to focus on the next training session and next game, instead of thinking of what might be, thinking of what we have to do to make it as good as possible now.' Deila believes treble success will help not only attract players to the club this summer, but also help keep those who are already at Parkhead and perhaps thinking of moving to pastures new. The former Stromsgodset boss said: 'The players are happy, they enjoy being in Glasgow and at Celtic and if they see the team is going forward they want to stay, that is my experience. The Scottish League Cup winners are eight points clear in Scottish Premiership with six games to play . 'It's my job to make the staff and players feel well and have fun and looking forward to coming to work. 'It is not like that everywhere. I've had players come to me who are very unhappy and then money is nothing, in my opinion.' The day after Wednesday night's 4-1 home win over Kilmarnock, Deila travelled south to see Celtic's development team lose on penalties to Manchester City in the quarter-final of the Premier League International Cup. After their early Champions League exit, Celtic fans could be celebrating a treble-winning season soon . Out of favour striker Stefan Scepovic, who was signed from Sporting Gijon for a reported fee of £2.3million in September, was given some game time and Deila, who has Anthony Stokes suspended and Gary Mackay-Steven and Stuart Armstrong cup-tied for the Caley game, revealed the 25-year-old Serbia international will be in his plans for Hampden. He said: 'Scepovic is in the squad for Sunday. He needed a game instead of sitting on the bench on Wednesday. 'His contribution is going up and down. There is competition, it's tough to switch around when you have other strikers doing well. 'But he has some qualities that the others don't have and he's

Summary: Celtic face Inverness in Sunday's Scottish Cup semi-final at Hampden Park . Ronny Deila's side are on course for a treble-winning season this year . Scottish League Cup winners are eight points clear in Scottish Premiership . Deila said Celtic themselves provide the biggest hurdle to treble hopes .


A little boy with autism has sent his toy bear on a round-the-world mission to help him raise awareness about the disability. In January 2013, Dorian Poe, from Burlington, Ontario, sent his favorite toy out on the global adventure, having been inspired by the story of a cancer-stricken girl who, unable to live her own dreams of world travel, sent her teddy bear in her place. Hoping to raise the same level of global awareness about his own condition, Dorian decided to send his Ganz Webkinz bear, called Tikko, out into the world, carrying with him a message of understanding and tolerance for those affected by autism. Scroll down for video . 'It's okay to be different': Dorian Poe, 11, with his beloved bear Tikko, whose travels have raised awareness for autism all over the world . With the help and support of his mother Christine, Dorian, who was then nine years old, sent Tikko off on the first leg of his adventure in back in January 2013. Now, the bear has circled the globe and then some, continuing to share his vital message, while inviting the world to join in with his journey online. 'When I first decided to support Dorian in his campaign, it was because I was happy to see him want to “pay it forward”' Christine tells DailyMail.com. 'I fundraise each year to pay the $24,500.00/year tuition it costs for Dorian to go to a special needs school. I was thrilled to support Tikko because Dorian had found a way to give back to our community; a community that has been wonderful at supporting our fundraising efforts.' Hello, my name is Dorian. I have autism, and so does my pet polar bear Tikko. Tikko is about to go traveling on an adventure; and I need you to take care of him. My polar bear wants to raise autism awareness. Just call him 'Tikko the Autism Bear' or 'Tikko'. Guess what, this guy is much more different than the other polar bears you know. Things you should look out for: . To accompany Tikko the autistic bear on his adventures, Dorian included a letter explaining the characteristics and challenges involved in having autism – using the toy to help other people understand what the various aspects of the condition can feel like. Each family who receivedTikko on his travels would take on the job of raising awareness in his or her community – helping to spread Dorian’s message across the globe, while he remained at home in Canada. But the mother and son could never have known what a phenomenon Tikko would become. 'In January when Tikko took his first trip to Jamaica, I connected with another mom there whose child had autism,' Christine explains. 'There was little to no support for autism in Jamaica.' Hearing such a story from so far away, Christine began to research autism in the other countries Tikko was visiting, and she shared what she learned on the campaign's Facebook page. And two weeks after the Tikko had begun his adventures, Christine became involved

Summary: Dorian Poe, 11, from Burlington, Ontario, sends his stuffed polar bear Tikko to other children around the world . Each child who looks after Tikko is tasked with raising awareness about autism in his or her community .


War veteran: Arthur Townsend, 92, supported himself with his Zimmer frame at Basildon Magistrates’ Court as he admitted criminal damage . A 92-year-old Second World War veteran has avoided jail despite pouring paint stripper over a van owned by a female friend's son because of the way he treated her. Arthur Townsend, who lives in a care home in Epping, Essex, poured the product over a Mercedes Sprinter belonging to Martin Carter - the son of his friend Olive Carter, 96. Townsend carried out the attack after becoming angry with Mr Carter, who he believed was making his mother stay at home to sign for packages relating to his online business. The retired antiques restorer was given a lift in a car to Mr Carter’s address where he dumped the brown-coloured paint stripper on the van, causing more than £2,000 of damage. Townsend - of previous good character - was arrested and charged with criminal damage. He supported himself with his Zimmer frame as he admitted the single charge at Basildon Magistrates’ Court last Friday. Remi Alabi, prosecuting, said: ‘On December 18 last year, Townsend asked a friend if she could drive him to a local address. 'When Mr Townsend got into the car the friend saw a jar containing a brown liquid. ‘When she parked 40 yards away, she saw Mr Townsend in her rear-view mirror and he was emptying a jar of brown liquid onto the front of the van.’ The court heard the damage to the Mercedes van totalled £2,190. Stephen Sparkes, defending, said the veteran made a full admission during a police interview. He said: ‘One of the key issues is the complainant runs a company and his 96-year-old mother, Olive, was made to stay at the address to receive packages. Residence: Retired antiques restorer Townsend lives in this care home (above) in Epping, Essex. He carried out the attack after becoming angry with Martin Carter - the son of his friend Olive Carter, 96 . Vehicle: A file picture of a Mercedes Sprinter van - the model of vehicle that was damaged by Townsend . ‘Mr Townsend was not happy with the way her son was treating him and her. On one occasion Martin Carter swore at Mr Townsend. He resides in a care home and is of previous good character. 'He worked as an antiques restorer and he has known the claimant for 45 years.’ Mr Sparkes said that after Townsend’s wife died in 1995 he became good friends with Mrs Carter. He added: ‘Mr Townsend has done a lot for the family over the years. He has given them financial help and has restored antiques for them.’ Sentencing, magistrate Dorothy Hammond said: ‘For this offence we are going to go out of our guidelines. There is a quotation of damage but we have no reason to know that amount was paid.’ Townsend was told to pay Mr Carter £500 compensation and court costs of £85 at the hearing.

It's hard to imagine exactly what is going on in the heads of parents who would give their daughter a name like 'Airwrecker' - an alternative spelling to 'Erica' - but apparently, such a thing exists. A new Reddit thread asking users to submit the most horrendous baby names they have ever come across has attracted more than 18,000 comments in just 24 hours, and turned up a treasure trove of bad parental judgement calls. FEMAIL has compiled the worst examples, including the names 'Orgasm', submitted by the daughter of a midwife who has heard her fair share of horror stories, and 'Mazen', because 'it was 'mazen' (amazing) when the child was born. Unlucky: A new Reddit thread asking users to submit the most horrendous baby names they have ever come across has attracted more than 18,000 comments in just 24 hours, and FEMAIL has compiled the top 12 . 'There is a girl in my school named Gennah Tyles. With a G,' wrote one submitter. 'It’s like her parents wanted to name her genitals.' 'I work at a bank in North Florida and have been keeping a list of names I come across,' wrote another. 'My favourite so far is definitely I’munique. It was on her ID and everything.' Sadly for the owner of this moniker, as another user pointed out, her every introduction would have to be: 'Hello, I'm I'munique.' One submitter reported a friend having named her child 'Britney Shakira Beyonce', claiming: 'They would call her by the full name every time.' The user who submitted the name Orgasm wrote: 'As the daughter of a labor and delivery nurse, I've heard an abundance of terrible baby names, but I'd have to say this is by far the worst! Sadly, I'm not kidding.' A handful of people warned against the pitfalls involved with combining two names into one. 'A friend of my sister-in-law worked in a maternity ward and saw a kid named after her grandparents, John and Veronica. Her name was Vejonica,' one wrote. Three-in-one!

The adoptive grandparents of a Texas toddler who died after a brutal beating last month are speaking out against the boy's mother, who they say didn't do enough to protect her son from her boyfriend. Christian Tyrrell, 22, was arrested Wednesday on capital murder charges in connection to the March 19 death of 2-year-old Adrian Langlais, the son of his girlfriend Jessica Langlais. John Winkler and Laura Martinez considered themselves Adrian's grandparents, even though they weren't blood related to the little boy. Martinez's son - Winkler's stepson - started dating Langlais when she was six-months pregnant with Adrian and they continued to babysit the toddler when the two eventually broke up. In a heartbreaking interview with the Star-Telegram, the couple said they started noticing bruises on Adrian last fall, when Langlais started dating Tyrrell, and say the mother ignored them when they voiced concern. Eventually, they reported Adrian's injuries to Child Protective Services, but the agency closed the investigation in February, ruling out abuse from Adrian's parents or Tyrrell. A little over a month later, Adrian was dead. Scroll down for video . Abused: Christian Tyrrell, 22 (left), was arrested Wednesday on charges of murdering 2-year-old Adrian Langlais (right), the son of his girlfriend Jessica Langlais (center) Now Winkler and Martinez, who are now separated but remain friends, are working together to bring justice for the boy they considered family. While they are happy to see Tyrrell's arrest, both want CPS and Langlais held accountable for the role they played in Adrian's death. 'They left the child vulnerable. They made that decision and they made the wrong decision,' Winkler told the Star Telegram. Winkler and Martinez first met Langlais in late 2012, when she started dating Martinez's son. At the time, she was carrying Adrian, her son with former boyfriend Ulises Hererra. When Langlais gave birth three months later, Winkler and Martinez considered Adrian their grandson and started babysitting when his mother went back to work. At one point, Langlais broke up with Martinez's son and briefly got back together with Adrian's father. All the while, the couple continued their relationship with Langlais in order to be a part of Adrian's life. But last fall, both became seriously concerned when they noticed bruises and other injuries on the little boy's body after Langlais started dating Tyrrell. Adrian (right) died in the hospital on March 19, the day after his second birthday, from head trauma. Tyrrell (left) has been accused of causing those injuries . 'I start noticing a change in Adrian's behavior,' Winkler said. 'He's starting to hit me in the face. Sometimes when she brings him over, he's like in shock. … He clings to me. I'm telling her [Langlais], "I don't know what the deal is but there's something going on here."' When they told Langlais about the marks, she dismissed them saying he got them roughhousing with some other children at Tyrrell's mother house. After highlighting the injuries with Hererra, the boy's biological father, and a lawyer, the two decided to go against Langlais' wishes and make a report

Summary: Adrian Langlais died on March 19, the day after his second birthday, from head injuries allegedly caused by his mother's boyfriend Christian Tyrrell . The toddler's adoptive grandparents say they started noticing bruises on the boy in November, when mother Jessica Langlais started dating Tyrrell . They say Jessica ignored their warnings, and that Child Protective Services cleared Tyrrell of any wrong doing a month before Adrian's death . Tyrrell was arrested Wednesday on capital murder charges and is being held on $1million bond .


Stuart McCall admits he will become a Livingston fan for the day on Wednesday as he prays the Scottish Championship strugglers can do his side's play-off bid a favour. Livingston gave Rangers a headache last week when they held them to a 1-1 draw at the Energy Assets Arena and they now take on Hibernian in midweek. The Easter Road outfit slipped four points behind McCall's side on Saturday while they were busy getting knocked out of the William Hill Scottish Cup by Falkirk as Rangers were winning 3-1 at Dumbarton in league action. Stuart McCall has revealed he will be cheering on Livingston during their match against Hibernian . McCall believes his side's main promotion rivals could drop points against Livingston on Wednesday . Rangers dropped points against Livingston by drawing 1-1 with the Scottish Championship strugglers . Rangers are four points ahead of Hibernian . However, Hibs can close back to within a point of second place if they win their game in hand with Mark Burchill's Livingston. With both teams desperate to finish as runners-up to new champions Hearts and spare themselves two extra hazardous games in the play-offs, McCall is now praying Livi give Hibs as hard a time as they did his side. He said: 'I'll be there on Wednesday with my Livingston scarf on. We played them and know what a tough game it will be. Hibs will be disappointed with what happened at Hampden but they'll now focus on promotion and we've got to focus on ourselves - we've got two big games left and want to win both.' Rangers clinched the points at the weekend after 18-year-old striker Ryan Hardie claimed a dream double on his full debut. Former Celtic striker Mark Wilson put the Sons ahead after just two minutes with his first goal since netting an Old Firm winner against Gers back in March 2011, but Hardie saved the day with his brace before Haris Vuckic swept home a 25-yeard beauty to put the seal on the Glasgow side's victory. McCall was delighted for his young frontman Hardie - but was cautious when asked if the teenager could be the man to fire Rangers back to the Premiership. 'We only told Ryan at lunchtime that he was playing, we showed him the areas of the park we wanted him to get into and that's where his first goal came from,' said the Gers boss. 'The kid is a goalscorer and he's got great energy and good pace. He's very raw naturally because he's only young but you can't do much more than score two on your debut. 'I'm delighted for the kid and hopefully that's him on his way to a lot of goals for Rangers. I'm a horses for courses manager and we'll change things but Ryan did what we hoped he would do and his confidence is high so it's a nice problem for next week.' On-loan Newcastle playmaker Vuckic's goal was a sublime strike but McCall admits he had to give the Slovenian a half-time talking to after he

Summary: Stuart McCall jokes he will wear Livingston scarf during Hibernian match . The Rangers boss will be at the Energy Assets Arena to watch clash . Hibernian are four points behind Rangers with game in hand . Both sides are vying for second spot in Scottish Championship .


Former Dragons’ Den star Duncan Bannatyne this morning announced he would back Labour at the next election – just a week after backing the Tories. The millionaire businessman said Ed Miliband’s plan to scrap the controversial ‘non-dom’ status had won him over. He tweeted: 'Ed Milliband says he will abolish non-dom status in UK. This gets my vote I never thought any party would have courage to do this.' Scroll down for video . Duncan Bannatyne said Ed Miliband’s plan to scrap the controversial ‘non-dom’ status had won him over . It comes after the hotelier signed a letter from more than 100 business leaders backing the Tories’ economic record. The letter claimed that the 'Conservative-led Government has been good for business' and backed the cut in corporation tax to 20 per cent. Mr Bannatyne’s inclusion on the list was deeply damaging for Labour – having previously been one of the party’s most high profile backers. The TV star helped unveil a 'seaside manifesto' with Gordon Brown before the 2010 general election. But he announced this morning that Mr Miliband’s planned raid on the super-rich – announced this morning – has convinced him to return. Speaking in Coventry this morning, the Labour leader promised that the 200-year-old rule for non-doms, which applies to around 116,000 people, makes Britain an 'offshore tax haven for a few' and can 'no longer be justified'. Former Dragons’ Den star Duncan Bannatyne this morning announced he would back Labour at the next election – just a week after backing the Tories . Speaking in Coventry this morning, Labour leader Ed Miliband claimed the 200-year-old 'non dom' rule makes Britain an 'offshore tax haven for a few' and can 'no longer be justified' The Tories warned the plan could cost Britain 'hundreds of millions of pounds' and stopped short of scrapping the rules, despite Labour's claims. Non-domicile status allows people living and working in Britain to only pay tax on their UK income, but not earnings from overseas. They must prove that they regard a foreign country as their real home. But Mr Miliband said that non-dom tests 'are not very rigorous' and can be granted to people who have a burial plot or property abroad. Mr Miliband said everyone who has made Britain their permanent home should pay full UK tax on all their income and gains. He will pledge to abolish the non-dom status from April 2016. The status, which is unique to the UK having been introduced by William Pitt the Younger in the late 18th century, is used by more than 110,000 wealthy people. Mr Bannatyne was one of the former Prime Minister Gordon Brown's most prominent backers - and was wheeled out ahead of the 2010 election (above) to boost the party's business credentials . Mr Miliband said non-dom status results from a discredited belief that 'anything goes for those at the top and that what is good for the rich is always good for Britain'. He said: 'There are people who live here in Britain like you and me, work here in

A man accused of removing women’s teeth with pliers and a screwdriver during sex because he liked ‘gummy ladies’ claims he was just trying to ‘help’ them. New Zealander Philip Lyle Hansen, 56, has pleaded not guilty to 11 charges, including unlawful sexual connection and charges of wounding with intent to injure four women between 1988 and 2011. On Wednesday a Wellington District Court jury continued hearing evidence from a woman, 47, who was in a relationship with Hansen during the 1990s. The woman, who cannot be named for legal reasons, told the court she never consented to Hansen pulling out her teeth but was too ‘afraid’ to say anything. Crown prosecutor Sally Carter warned the jury that during the trial they would hear evidence about Hansen's ‘fascination or obsession with them [women] not having any teeth’. New Zealander Philip Lyle Hansen, 56, is accused of removing women’s teeth with pliers and a screwdriver during sex . ‘He liked his women without teeth,’ Ms Carter said in her opening address, the New Zealand Herald reports. The court watched a video form 2012 of the woman talking about how Hansen allegedly held her against a car door and removed six of her bottom teeth, using an oily rag to stop the bleeding, during sex. She later had all her teeth removed and replaced with dentures, but when her wisdom teeth started coming through Hansen allegedly removed them with a screwdriver. ‘He had a screwdriver in his hand, he then tilted my head back... after that he had grabbed the screwdriver and started digging at the back of my gums to try and get out these wisdom teeth,’ she said in the video. A woman, 47, has claimed Hansen 'grabbed the screwdriver and started digging at the back of my gums' During cross-examination defence lawyer Mike Antunovic said the woman had let Hansen pull out six teeth from her lower jaw and that Hansen was just trying to help the women, not hurt them. ‘So after he pulled out the first tooth ... the second tooth, the third tooth, the fourth tooth, the fifth tooth, the sixth tooth ... you didn't ask him to stop?’ said Mr Antunovic. ‘No,’ replied the woman, who said she had been drinking that night but was not heavily intoxicated. The lawyer said the woman had not objected to Hansen extracting her teeth with pliers. ‘You opened your mouth to allow him to put the pliers in,’ said Mr Antunovic. ‘I would not just freely open my mouth to a pair of pliers,’ said the woman. Hansen's lawyer said the woman had not objected to Hansen extracting her teeth with pliers . ‘Well, you didn't shut your mouth. You didn't tell him to stop,’ said the lawyer. The woman told the court she couldn't, saying ‘I had no choice’. Mr Antunovic suggested Hansen had been trying to help the woman when he tried to remove her emerging wisdom teeth with a screwdriver after she complained about the problems they were causing her. ‘Do you think Philip was trying to

'Burned up inside': Doctors could not save Eloise Aimee Parry, 21, above, after she took the 'diet pills' Deadly diet pills thought to have killed six young people in Britain are being sold online for just 70p each. Unscrupulous dealers in the UK and abroad are selling the potentially fatal drug, which contains a toxic chemical used in pesticides and explosives, to those desperate to lose weight. Some promise next-day delivery, while others even offer free samples for those who want to ‘try before they buy’. The most recent victim of the chemical 2,4-Dinitrophenol (DNP) is Eloise Aimee Parry, 21, as reported in yesterday’s Mail. She died this month after buying it online to slim down – despite being a normal weight. Five others have died since 2008. Yesterday, her mother, Fiona, told how the drug arrived in a ‘nondescript’ plastic bag labelled with a white sticker embossed with the letters ‘DNP’ and an illustration of its chemical formula. She found it in her daughter’s handbag after her death in hospital on April 12. Mrs Parry, 51, a chemistry teacher, said the drug was simple to concoct, adding: ‘A student with a decent grade in A-level chemistry could work out how to synthesise this.’ Despite the dangers, the drug can be bought cheaply and easily online, the Daily Mail discovered yesterday. Simple internet searches found dozens of firms marketing and selling DNP as a miracle diet pill for home delivery in ‘discreet packaging’. Others based in China were offering the powder contained in the capsules in bulk, allowing anyone to make pills and sell them online. One company claimed to be based in the UK. It had a sale on, with 100 pills for £70. It also offered to send six free tablets to try. Miss Parry, from Shrewsbury, died after taking eight – six more than the fatal dose. She ‘burned up from within’, her mother said. DNP, a yellow organic compound, is used to suppress plant growth and as an explosive. It was popular as a diet aid in the 1930s but was banned after it was found to be poisonous. Despite this, it has become popular again, particularly among bodybuilders. It works by causing the body to overheat, accelerating the metabolism so it burns more fat. However it also causes dehydration, nausea, vomiting, excessive sweating and a rapid or irregular heartbeat and can lead to coma and death. Long-term use can lead to the development of cataracts and skin lesions and may cause damage to the heart and nervous system. There is also evidence that DNP causes cancer and increases the risk of birth defects. Bright yellow DNP powder is produced as a pesticide at chemical factories in Turkey and China. It is then made into easy-to-swallow capsules by dealers who sell them online as weight-loss pills. Dozens of websites advertise DNP as a fat-burning wonder drug. They promise discreet, prompt, worldwide delivery. One British website even offers customers a ‘try before you buy’. What the websites do not say is that DNP has been linked to at least

Summary: Potentially fatal drug contains chemical used in pesticides and explosives . Despite the dangers, the drug can be bought cheaply and easily online . Most recent victim is 21-year-old Eloise Aimee Parry who died this month .

A weakening U.S. economy spilled into the job market in March as employers added just 126,000 jobs 0the fewest since December 2013 – snapping a 12-month streak of gains above 200,000. The unemployment rate remained at 5.5 percent, the Labor Department said in its monthly report Friday. The March jobs data raised uncertainties about the world's largest economy, which for months has been the envy of other industrialized nations for its steadily robust hiring and growth. Employers now appear wary about the economy, especially as a strong dollar has slowed U.S. exports, home sales have sputtered and cheaper gasoline has yet to unleash more consumer spending. Scroll down for video . NUMBERS: Labor Department data shows the US economy generated a disappointing 126,000 net new jobs in March, half of what was expected and the worst month since December 2013 . GREEN JOBS ECONOMY? President Barack Obama was in Utah on Friday to promote an initiative that would see US veterans hired to work for the solar electricity industry . Some of the weakness may prove temporary: An unseasonably cold March followed a brutal winter that slowed key sectors of the economy. Last month's subpar job growth could make the Federal Reserve less likely to start raising interest rates from record lows in June, as some have been anticipating. The Fed may decide that the economy still needs the benefit of low borrowing costs to generate healthy growth. Reflecting that sentiment, government bond yields fell Friday. The yield on the U.S. 10-year Treasury note dropped to 1.84 percent from 1.90 percent before the jobs report was released. U.S. stock markets are closed in observance of Good Friday. Economists noted that for months hiring had been stronger than other gauges of the economy, suggesting that a pullback in job gains was inevitable. 'Job growth has been running at a stupendous pace in America over the last several months, increasingly out of tune with other economic indicators, which have pointed to a slowdown,' James Marple, senior economist at TD Economics, wrote in a research note. 'The reckoning in March closes at least some of this gap.' At the same time, some said last month's data looks bleak in part because hiring had been so robust in the months that preceded it. 'Employers aren't laying people off,' noted Patrick O'Keefe, director of economic research at the accounting and consulting firm CohnReznick. 'What they've decided to do is slow down the pace at which they're hiring until they have more confidence.' Last month, the manufacturing, building and government sectors all shed workers. Factories cut 1,000, snapping a 19-month hiring streak. Construction jobs also fell by 1,000, the first drop in 15 months. Hiring at restaurants plunged from February. The mining and logging sector, which includes oil drilling, lost 11,000. Some other categories showed continued gains. Health care added 22,000 workers. Professional and business services – a sector that includes lawyers, engineers, accountants and office temps – gained 40,000. Financial services expanded by 8,000, and retailers maintained their 12-month pace by adding 25,900. In addition to reporting

Summary: Official unemployment rate – which doesn't count people who have dropped out of the labor force – stands at 5.5 per cent . Manufacturing, construction and government sectors all cut jobs in March . Other sectors, including health care, lawyers, engineers, accountants and retailers, grew their workforces . Could be a temporary blip as the US recovers from an unseasonably cold March that may have tamped down hiring .


A group of U.S. senators has written to football's world governing body FIFA, calling for Russia to be removed as host of the 2018 World Cup because of its role in the Ukraine crisis and occupation of Crimea. In a letter dated Tuesday and released on Wednesday, the 13 Democratic and Republican U.S. lawmakers said they 'strongly encourage' FIFA to move the global competition. 'Allowing Russia to host the World Cup inappropriately bolsters the prestige of the (Russian President Vladimir) Putin regime at a time when it should be condemned and provides economic relief at a time when much of the international community is imposing economic sanctions,' the senators wrote to FIFA President Sepp Blatter. FIFA president Sepp Blatter announces Russia as the host nation for the 2018 World Cup . Republican John McCain is one of 13 US senators urging FIFA to think again . The lead signers were Senator Robert Menendez, the top Democrat on the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, and Senator Ron Johnson, the Republican chairman of the foreign relations panel's Europe subcommittee. Republican Senator John McCain, chairman of the Senate Armed Services Committee, also signed the letter, as did Senator Richard Durbin, the number two Democrat in the Senate. England are planning a bid to host Eur 2028 after last holding the tournament at home in 1996 . Meanwhile, England are interested in bidding for Euro 2028 but are very unlikely to bid for the 2026 World Cup, FA chairman Greg Dyke has revealed. FIFA announced last week that the decision on the 2026 tournament will be made in 2017 - when Blatter is still likely to be FIFA president. The FA has decided not to bid for FIFA tournaments while Blatter is still in power following England's failed bid for 2018, but is eyeing a bid for the European Championship in 2028.

You don't have to be an avid follower of Manchester United to know that Radamel Falcao has struggled badly at Old Trafford this year. Goals have been hard to come by for the Colombian, with just four being netted by the striker this season in a United shirt having signed on a season-long loan from Monaco. But not only has Falcao failed to score since January 31 against Leicester, he has also failed to have a shot on target in the Premier League - featuring in 10 games since.During that period he has collected £3,080,000 in wages.

Falcao stands dejected with Wayne Rooney at the final whistle following United's 1-0 loss at Chelsea . Falcao looks on with Marouane Fellaini waiting to kick-off following Eden Hazard's strike . Granted, Falcao has not always featured for the Red Devils but the striker's £280,000-a-week wages are a massive burden for United, making a permanent move this summer even more unlikely despite the uncertain future of strike partner Robin van Persie. Falcao started in Manchester United's 1-0 defeat at Chelsea on Saturday, but despite playing the full 90 minutes for a side that bossed over 70 per cent of the ball, he struggled to get involved in the game. The striker saw a shot blocked by Gary Cahill and had another two shots fly wide in the second half. But otherwise the Colombian's biggest impact was a negative one as he lost the ball following a John Terry challenge in the build up to Eden Hazard's winning goal at Stamford Bridge. Following another failed audition in front of manager Louis van Gaal, Falcao's Premier League adventure is set to go down as a costly mistake for the Red Devils. John Terry had the upper hand on Falcao in their personal scrap, with the Chelsea captain winning the ball off the striker to start a move which led to Hazard's goal in the Premier League clash . Falcao hasn't scored or had a shot on target for United since netting against Leicester in January . Sportsmail's Match Zone shows Falcao's heat map for the striker's display at Chelsea .

Summary: Radamel Falcao was ineffective for Manchester Utd in 1-0 loss by Chelsea . Striker has not had shot on target since netting vs Leicester in January . Colombian earns £280,000 a week as part of his loan move from Monaco . Falcao has scored just four goals for Manchester United this season .
