WELL-wishers ocking to the Royal Wedding were told by police yesterday: You can help guard William and Kate from terrorists, anarchists and crazed stalkers. Scotland Yard chiefs urged the hundreds of thousands of people expected to line Londons streets on Friday to be the eyes and ears of police.

Visitors were warned to plan their trip carefully as much of central Londons transport network grinds to a halt. She said: Hundreds of thousands of people will want to come to enjoy this unique event and enjoy the sense of occasion. We want to make this a celebration of joy and pageantry. The wedding comes with the terrorist threat level still at severe. But sources insist there is no specic terror threat to the big day. Police said the level had not changed after warnings against the Queen by the Real IRA at the weekend. They are rounding up potential troublemakers as a mystery Middle-East group vowed to stage a protest on Friday. Scotland Yard revealed a man claiming to represent a previously unknown group walked into Hackney police station in east London on Saturday saying they intended to mount a Royal Wedding protest. The Yard is engaged on a signicant covert and overt operation to identify criminals and anarchists intent on wrecking the celebrations. It is now known that 68 people arrested for alleged public order offences during the student riots and disturbances after the TUC March are banned from Westminster under terms of their bail. The latest arrests came on Saturday when six people were detained for alleged public disorder after the TUC protest in central London on March 26. Their bail conditions prohibit them from setting foot inside the security zone around Westminster Abbey on Friday. There may be more arrests today and tomorrow. As the Yard prepared to deploy thousands of police ofcers on the streets, it emerged the last line of defence in the massive secu-

WESTMINSTER Abbey will be decked out with eight 20ft trees and seasonal British owers and foliage. English eld maples and hornbeams in planters will form an avenue of trees along the aisle. Azaleas, lilacs and rhododendron blooms, many from Windsor Great Park, will also feature. Royal Wedding orist Shane Connolly said the display symbolised that everything is sustainable, renewable and appropriate. But Mr Connelly, 47, refused to reveal the brides wedding bouquet, saying only that every ower would hold signicance.

PRINCE William was responsible for a 40million cocaine bust during his Royal Navy training, it emerged last night. The prince, pictured in a previously unreleased photo of him with a sniper rie, was attached to frigate HMS Iron Duke in the Caribbean in July 2008 when from a helicopter he spotted a speedboat trying to evade their patrol. The story was revealed by Lt Jason Hannigan, who was in charge of his training and is one of an honour guard at Westminster Abbey.

THERE are still two days to go until the Royal Wedding but fans are already camping outside Westminster Abbey to guarantee a prime spot for the celebrations. Die-hard royalist John Loughrey was the rst to pitch up on Monday night to ensure a view of all the action when Prince William marries Kate Middleton on Friday. Wearing a William and Kate T-shirt and armed with three Union Flag shopping bags and a sleeping bag, the 56-year-old former assistant chef said he wasnt budging even if it rained or he ran out of food. And Mr Loughrey said he planned to stay until Saturday to soak up all the atmosphere. This is something very special, said the super-fan of Williams mother, Princess Diana. I want to always remember exactly what it was like to be here on the day. If it rains Ill get wet but Im staying here for the big day and then I might rush to Buckingham Palace for the kiss.

I dont have enough food with me so Ill just have to make it last. I am sure Diana would be so proud of her son and Prince Harry who will be the best man, and I am sure she will be here in spirit. I wish them all the success in the world and I hope they have many children. Mr Loughrey, of Wandsworth, south-west London, attended each hearing of the inquest into Dianas death, camping for three days outside the Royal Courts of Justice in central London. He was mentioned by the coroner, Lord Justice Scott Baker, after painting Diana and later Dodi on his face. Guen Murray, a 76-year-old grandmother from Attleborough, Norfolk, set up camp outside the Abbey yesterday morning. Mrs Murray, who

BRITAIN was bracing itself for a fresh wave of immigrants last night as around 1,000 North African refugees set up camps near the Eurostar station in Paris. The Tunisian and Libyan migrants say they will head to England because of a crackdown by French authorities. The unofcial camps are all a short walk from the Gare du Nord, from where high-speed trains leave for Kent and London. The news comes as Italy and France moved to tighten European border controls. With thousands of migrants eeing unrest across North Africa, the countries requested an urgent reform of the Schengen border treaty which allows passport-free travel throughout continental Europe. Some 26,000 desperate Tunisians have already sought hostage on the tiny Italian island of Lampedusa while the ongoing crisis in Libya could see the number of refugees escaping to Europe soar further.

Paris, refugees have set up temporary homes in squares surrounding the Eurostar rail hub. Almost all are complaining about harassment from the French authorities, saying that their hopes of nding accommodation and jobs were next to nil. Some say they now hope to smuggle themselves to Britain, where they can claim asylum or disappear into the black economy. It may be our only hope, said Hamadi Trikki, a 19-year-old Tunisian who arrived via boat to Italy and then train. Many of us believed that France would offer us a future because we speak French and have family here, but the French dont want to help. We were treated as heroes during the Jasmine Revolution but now we are unwanted. People are already offering us passages to England. Mr Trikki was speaking from a makeshift camp on the Jemmapes quay, in Pariss 10th arrondissement, where charity workers were dishing out soup to 400 migrants. Another camp, at Porte de Villette, in the 19th arrondissement, has Tunisian ags at the entrance, but some 300 residents complain daily about the lack of food and

and became a diplomatic sore between Britain and France. At the height of the Sangatte controversy, asylum applications hit a record of more than 84,000 a
year. Since then claims have fallen to a quarter of that number. The worry now is that the unrest across the Arab world is breeding a new crisis. One that could wreck David Camerons hopes of reducing annual net migration from the hundreds of thousands to the tens of thousands. That target is proving a tall order for the UK Border Agency. Worryingly, ministers are already referring to it as an ambition
threats from the police. Other migrants are seen wandering around Paris, with police estimating that up to 50 a day are arriving to swell the numbers. They dont want us here at all, said a 22-year-old Tunisian who gave his name as Mohammed. Shops and fast food restaurants ask us for papers, but we dont have any. The police threaten to arrest us
and there is no nancial support available. France prevented trains carrying immigrants arriving from Italy last week, claiming they were a risk to public order. Yesterday, French President Nicolas Sarkozy and Italian Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi signed a joint letter to the European Union to demand that the Schengen treaty take into account exceptional sit-
uations like the ood of immigrants. The letter asks that the EU strengthen its border control agency Frontex, step up assistance to North African countries and allow member states to reimpose frontier controls. Mr Sarkozy said: We want Schengen to survive but, to survive, Schengen must be reformed. However, it is feared that the end result will be more migrants towards
Britain. Ukip MEP Gerard Batten said: This is a clear case of an EU ideal colliding with reality and once again coming off worse, in this case the European borderless state. The Italians want to ship the Tunisians to France and France will inevitably pass them on to us.

batch of cases are people ghting removal through the courts. The revelations shows a Government target to deal with most new cases within six months is failing. It also raises fears that failed asylum seekers may earn the right to stay in the UK under human rights laws simply for being here so long waiting for their cases to be decided. Gerard Batten, Ukip MEP, said: The longer people stay here the chances of them being asked to leave

grow smaller. This is made possible by human rights laws and the EU which controls our asylum criteria. Sir Andrew Green, of MigrationWatch, said: This is evidence of the growing legal difculties which are being thrown in the way of the rapid resolution of these cases. Figures published by the UK Border Agency show that 25,345 new asylum cases are outstanding waiting for an initial decision, the outcome of an appeal or judicial review. The true gure is likely to be much higher because it does not include
applications between 2006 and 2008 and suggests a second backlog has built up. Last night immigration minister Damian Green said: The Government is in the process of making major changes to the uncontrolled immigration system it inherited. This includes concluding asylum cases faster, at lower cost, and improving the quality of the UK Border Agencys decision-making. We are committed to ensuring there are no new backlogs, and last year we removed thousands of people with no right to be here.

9bn bill for public sector staff who take 12 sick days a year
9pDXZ\i?XccGfc`k`ZXc<[`kfi
FRESH anger at the culture of absenteeism in Britains bloated public sector erupted last night after it was revealed that state employees take an average of more than 12 days off sick every year. New gures showed that civil servants, teachers, nurses and other public sector staff take 20 per cent more unscheduled days absent than their counterparts in the private sector, costing taxpayers nearly 9billion annually. And the gures also showed that British workers across the economy take twice as many sick days as those in the US and Asia. Overall, absenteeism was estimated to cost British business an eye-watering 32billion a year. Charlotte Linacre, campaign manager at the TaxPayers Alliance, said: Its scandalous that yet more research conrms that public sector staff are pulling more sickies than those in the private sector. Of course employers should be sympathetic to genuine illnesses but there seems to be a different approach when taxpayers pockets are raided to foot the bill.

These ndings also suggest that a lack of commitment will lead to more absenteeism, which means taxpayers are getting a bad deal twice, both by funding extra days off and picking up the tab for disengaged staff. The disturbing extent of the sick note culture was revealed in an international survey of 2,000 rms and public-sector employers carried out by the leading professional services rm PricewaterhouseCoopers. It was published yesterday following the launch of a major inquiry commissioned by the Government aimed at slashing the number of people claiming long-term sickness benets. David Cameron has called for an end to the sicknote culture, and millions of claimants on sickness benets face medical tests to see whether the handouts should be withdrawn. The PricewaterhouseCoopers report found that workers in the UK take an average 10 days of unscheduled absence every year, compared with 5.5 days in the US and 4.5 in the Asia Pacic region.

as the excuse for eight out of ten absences from work. The rest were accounted for by jury service and compassionate leave. The survey also found that absence rates were lowest in technology companies 7.6 days a year. In the banking and nance sector, average absence was 7.8 days a year. But retail and leisure industry rms suffered a relatively high 11.5 days a year. Richard Phelps, human resources consulting partner at PricewaterhouseCoopers, said: Absenteeism is a malaise for British business.
ness record was slightly worse than the European average of 9.7 days. The survey found that the public sector had the UKs highest absence level, averaging 12.2 days a year. It estimated that, given the average UK annual salary of 25,000, absenteeism was costing business at least 32billion a year. The enormous sum is far higher than previous estimates by employers organisations such as the Confederation of British Industry have suggested in the past. Yet the true gure was likely to be far higher once lost productivity and potential replacement costs were taken into account. The research said that sickness was given

summed up in one sentence we all vote for our favourite and the one with the most votes wins. Simple. It is a system so democratic that each persons vote has the same value, has the same worth. You only get to vote once. Thats not the case with AV. And its a system so decisive that time and again it has allowed the British people to do something which is vital in a democracy. And it may be odd for a Prime Minister to say this but it is true. We have got to be able to kick out tired governments.
He added: Dont swap the current system that is clear, simple and decisive for something that can keep dead governments on life support machines. The Prime Minister spoke after the Cabinet met yesterday for the rst time since tensions between the Tories and Lib Dems over AV hit boiling point. Downing Street said it was business as usual. A new poll showed 41 per cent of voters opposed to AV with 30 per cent in favour the rst of six Angus Reid polls this year to put the No campaign ahead.

His friends remembered him as an adventurous and fun-loving guy who died doing something he absolutely loved. The tragedy happened on Easter Sunday during Scott Mays Daredevil Stunt Show, at Kent County Showground, in the village of Detling, near Maidstone. Mr Cranch originally from the Isle of Man performed under the name Matt the Manx Crank. Shocked witnesses said he was red into the air like a dummy being thrown before falling head-rst to the ground.
Matt the Manx Crank, above, quit his hotel barman job only a fortnight ago. Left, stunt leader Scott May
He died later from head injuries in Maidstone Hospital. Will Ashworth, managing director of Newquays Watergate Bay Hotel, where Mr Cranch was a barman until he left two weeks ago, said he was much-loved by everybody. He added: He was an extremely popular guy. James White described his friend Wiggles on a special Facebook memorial page as one of the best guys I have ever known. He said: Dude, I know you went doing something that you absolutely loved, with your trademark smile on your face. I will miss you with all my heart. About 20 of Mr Cranchs friends gathered on the beach in Newquay, Cornwall, near where he had lived, to raise a toast. They also used black marker pens to write messages of remembrance on the door of his red classic VW Beetle. A former atmate, who gave her name as Amy, said: He was a very adventurous and funloving guy. He will be sadly missed by everyone. Inspector Steve Grifths, of Maidstone Police, said his investigation was at the very early stages. He added: I dont want to try to make a judgment as to what happened. A spokesman for Maidstone Council said it had been asked to investigate on behalf of the Health and Safety Executive.

HERE is no legitimate reason for thousands of those displaced by the strife in North Africa to head for Britain. For obvious geographical reasons the primary European links of that region are with France and Italy. Those Libyans, Egyptians and Tunisians who have ed to continental Europe and wish to claim asylum should have done so in the rst safe country they reached. For most that will have been Italy but the Italian government has already seen t to pass as many incomers as possible on to France and now there are signs that the French government is far from unhappy with the idea that Britain could be the nal destination of many. The primary motivation for North Africans to travel through Italy and France to the Eurostar terminal in Paris is quite obviously a desire to avail themselves of the resources of the British welfare state. It would be an outrage if more than a handful succeed in reaching these shores. Yet the fact that so many apparently wish to do so should alert our political masters to the fact that despite all their supposed crackdowns and modernisations, across much of the world Britain is still regarded as the ultimate soft touch.

IVEN the inevitability of public spending cuts it is more important than ever that the maximum output possible is obtained from every worker on the state payroll. So to learn that rates of absence in the public sector are on average 20 per cent higher than in the private sector, even though working hours are typically shorter and holiday entitlements more generous, is alarming. It is easy and correct to bemoan the culture of poor motivation and downright laziness that has clearly taken hold among a signicant minority of public-sector workers but the challenge of improving attendance and productivity is primarily one for management to address. These days the public sector has legions of highly paid managers who are supposed to provide it with unparalleled expertise. These dreadful absenteeism gures indicate that they need to shape up or ship out.
TANTRUMS: Chris Huhne, Nick Clegg and Vince Cable are cutting up rough
But is it a convincing one? Most polls show the Conservatives holding on to the 36 per cent vote share they won at the last election while Labour is a few points ahead on about 42 per cent. Yet probe deeper and you nd that most of the public simply do not trust Labour on the economy. Meanwhile, the personal ratings of Miliband are disastrous. People do not see him as a potential premier.

lies have been told by his governmental other half. So far Cameron has responded merely with soothing words. He has told colleagues that should AV be rejected in next weeks referendum, as looks highly likely, there will have to be further concessions to the Lib Dems to cheer them up. At the back of the Prime Ministers mind no doubt lurks the fear of something that is implied but never directly stated by the Lib Dems that unless they get their way on a range of policies they will walk out of the coalition, prompting a general election that could put Mr Miliband into Downing Street and Mr Cameron out of it. Yet a mood is growing among Conservative MPs that views the prospect of such an election not with dread but relish. It is time, many say, for Mr Cameron to call the bluff of the Lib Dems. For a start, the Lib Dems are marooned on 10 per cent in the polls having suffered disastrous reputational damage by breaking a series of solemn pledges. They not only face losing the AV referendum but also suffering a meltdown in their representation in local government and in the Scottish Parliament and Welsh Assembly. Putting it bluntly, for them to provoke an early election would rank alongside turkeys voting for Christmas as an act of selfdestructive stupidity. Then it must be recalled how much the Tories have already had to give up. The dream of breaking free of the European human rights regime has been put on hold while standing up to the European Union on anything is now a vain hope. On the law and order agenda Kenneth Clarke the Justice Secretary is implementing the limp-wristed Lib Dem manifesto rather than the robust Tory one. On a whole array of key policies the Conservative agenda has been subverted. Though the Lib Dems can hardly deny they would be crushed in an early election they seek to preserve their leverage over Cameron by claiming the same fate would await him. Mutually Assured Destruction is their nal card.

O BUSINESS Secretary Vince Cable is suddenly attacking Mr Cameron across most of the political terrain he has condemned the Prime Minister for what most thought a sensible and moderate speech on immigration, shared a platform with Labour leader Ed Miliband and talked about using AV to forge a progressive alliance that will lock the Tories out of power. Chris Huhne, the Energy Secretary, has also been grandstanding absurdly threatening to sue Conservative Cabinet ministers for what they have said about the cost of running elections under AV. Even the bride himself Mr Clegg has been alleging

ORY MPs believe that Cameron could crush both Clegg and Miliband in a snap election. If the Lib Dems continue to behave in their current uncontrollable manner they believe the Prime Minister should announce that the coalition has broken down and seek a mandate for the Tories to govern alone. That mere act of making the political weather would be worth several points in the polls, they believe, while having the electorate contemplate handing the economy over to Ed Balls would be worth several more. I have no doubt a snap election would see David Cameron come back with a decent working majority, says one Tory veteran. Yesterday as the Cabinet met for the rst time since the outbreak of hostilities between its two factions, the Prime Minister was reportedly in jovial mood. But soon the time for jokes may be over and the time for hardball upon us.

LL OVER the country there are people who behave badly, sometimes as a single aberration in a normally moral life and sometimes serially so. People are having affairs and divorcing, having affairs and trying to get through it without divorcing, betraying spouses, getting drunk, having children by women other than their wives. In every case where there are children the grown-ups will try to shield them. Why do we expect celebrities to be different? If a neighbour had a mistress and somebody distributed compromising pictures up and down the street that person would be rightly regarded with distaste and most people, however censorious about the affair itself, would not think it right that children should see such pictures of their parents. Yet just because somebody is well known it is considered acceptable to reveal every lurid detail in the media to the population at large. It is of course quite different if the person in question is any sort of moral guardian. An adulterous vicar can hardly plead privacy nor can an MP who, say, runs a campaign against abortion and then has one but prurient prying cannot be justied just because somebody is a successful singer or actor. So yes, I would support a privacy law but such a law must be constructed by politicians in the full glare of public debate not made piecemeal by judges. That is not a criticism of the judges because they have been handed the Human Rights Act by politicians and have to interpret it. Rather it is a criticism of ministers who are quick to condemn that act but slow to abolish it. Backbenchers are no braver. It is perfectly possible to introduce a proper privacy act under the Private Members Bill system but they all know that anybody who puts his head above the parapet on this issue will have every minutiae of his life examined in a bid to paint an impure motive. Yet the issue must be resolved or injunctions will continue to be scattered like confetti. We elect politi-

THE mocking of Nigella Lawsons burkini is still rumbling on but I am not joining in, daft though it looked. It is a sad fact of summer that there is practically nothing to wear on a beach that is neither skimpy nor a full wet suit. Despite all the publicity about the cancerous properties of concentrated sun and all the bewailing of its effect on beauty, you scan the rails in vain for a swimsuit which provides at least some protection. I have yearned for years for an all-in-one swimsuit with a T-shirt style top to protect my back and shoulders and short legs to protect modesty at the other end and to cover the tops of my thighs when I am standing in shallow water. So I have sympathy with Nigella. Maybe I should put some of the money from Strictly towards bespoke swimwear. You never know, it might catch on!

ONE of my favourite programmes when I was growing up was This Is Your Life with Eamonn Andrews. I dreamed of Eamonn popping out from behind a pillar one day and proclaiming: Ann Widdecombe, this is your life. That, of course, was in the days when TV interviews were not rated according to intrusive questioning and an ability to reduce celebrities to tears but despite the modern trend in those regrettable directions Piers Morgans Life Stories can be interesting and fun and I dont know whether to be sad or glad that mine is being buried by the royal wedding weekend (Saturday, April 30, 9pm on ITV1).

THE unions say that privatising the Royal Mail will mean reduced deliveries. Er has anybody noticed what has happened to deliveries under our nationalised postal services? At boarding school I used to post my weekly missive home on a Sunday evening and my parents would get it the next morning. Now nothing posted after noon on Saturday arrives by Monday morning. Two deliveries a day used to be standard but now its just one. The rst post once arrived before you left for work but now anybody you ring to check on a delivery will say the post wont be here for hours. So I do not think we need fear privatisation: the question is how much further can the nationalised system reduce the service while charging ever more for stamps. I remember telephone services before they were sold off to the private sector, indeed when they were still part of the GPO. You could wait up to 18 months to have a line installed, public boxes were regularly out of order and some lines were shared. As for gas and electricity, you had to wait in all day because operatives could not give you a call time. Whatever may have gone wrong with rail privatisation, it was hardly heaven before. Trains were lthy, stations grimy and gloomy, the catering a joke and the entire service regularly paralysed by wild-cat strikes. So I am not fooled by scare stories, especially as any sell-off can specify minimum levels of service. On the contrary, I suspect a privatised service will improve standards as privatised services have in other sectors, so roll on the day.

ENERALLY speaking, printed slogans on the front of T-shirts should be banned. They are rarely interesting, funny or wise. Grotesquely ugly frontages announce up for anything or come and get it to which the only response is not if I can help it or you cant be serious. I did see a delectable looking woman the other day whose front said something altogether more subtle: Ive got everything I need. But what did it mean youll love me, Im no burden, Ive got everything I need, come on or was it Ive got everything I need so dont even think about pestering me? She was sitting there sipping a latte and reading a book and I gave serious consideration to looking into it but then I chickened out. If I wore T-shirts with words on the front that told the truth they would say Im not man enough. On the other hand at the weekend I saw a sentence that I think could make my fortune: I dont think I can do it any more. How many times a day do we have that thought and in how many places? So it wouldnt just be for T-shirts, its a slogan for pyjamas and aprons and business suits, for childrens exercise books and priests cassocks. It too is a wonderfully ambiguous statement. It can be a cry for help, an invitation to start a conversation or a bald statement Ive had it up to here! I didnt come up with I dont think I can do it any more myself. I found it at the weekend in a Jilly Cooper interview. And, dreadful to relate, she was talking about giving up sex. Or at least writing about sex. I dont think I can do it any more, she said.

ITS common practice among stick-thin supermodels when asked what they like to eat to claim to enjoy regularly the fatty foods of us mere mortals. Normally these claims should be taken with a pinch of low-sodium salt. But Brit model Erin OConnor, I suspect, is more honest than most. Asked what her last meal would be, the slender clothes horse replies greedily: A curry or a Sunday roast and Im not fussy about what meat. I just want those sloppy gravy spuds. How, then, does the 33-year-old maintain her sylph-like frame? The 6ft 1in OConnor, pictured, says its all a benet of her towering stature. When youre extremely elongated youre often slender, and that is how Ive always been and my body seems to have maintained itself. Long may it continue to do so. SIR Menzies Campbell had to endure constant uncharitable remarks about his age during his ill-fated stint as Lib Dem leader. Now, four years on from his ignominious ejection from the role, 69-year-old Sir Menzies isnt exactly going out of his way to seem youthful. Take Mings appearance on BBC Twos The Daily Politics yesterday when he condently declared: I remember when the National Liberals joined the National Government. Theres just one problem: the said event took place in 1931, 10 years before Campbell was born. Unless hes even older than weve been led to believe OZZY OSBOURNES son, TV presenter Jack, became famous on his familys reality TV show. So it is hardly surprising that he is keeping his family close for his move into lm. Jack is reportedly working on a new horror lm to be called Black Sabbath which the rockers among you will know was the name of Ozzys band. Apparently the lm will feature Osbourne Snrs music on the soundtrack. We dont think Jack will have any trouble getting the rights WITH tensions rising between the Tories and the Lib Dems over the looming AV referendum, David Cameron took a timely swipe at one of the rival partys more heavyweight gures yesterday. While discussing the 19th-century Prime Minister William Gladstone on a Radio 4 documentary, Dave acknowledged he was obviously a brilliant man who did some extraordinary things for his country. However he went on to say his Liberal predecessor could be a bit holier-thanthou: There is something a bit sanctimonious, you know, I was going to say Paddy Ashdown (pictured) with whiskers. Coalition etiquette though kicked in. Thats a bit unfair on Paddy Ashdown, he corrected. WHAT is it with veteran rock drummers and autographs these days? Almost three years after Ringo Starr declared he would be refusing to sign for fans in the future, the former drummer of Sixties legends The Doors, John Densmore, has just followed suit. The last several years I have been so ooded with requests that it is interfering with my personal life and I am going to have to stop, announces Densmore. It is unfortunate but I have to draw the line. Considering the bands charismatic front man, the late great Jim Morrison, passed away in 1971, Id have thought Densmore, 66, might be grateful people still remember him <$dX`cd\Xk1_`Zb\p7\ogi\jj%Zf%lb

MPs and taxpayer groups last night slammed the European human rights gravy train which costs British taxpayers 9billion a year. A shocking 7.1billion is swallowed by compensation payments alone following court rulings while simply following burdensome European laws costs more than 2billion. Britains Human Rights Act, passed by Labour in 1998 to incorporate the European Convention on Human Rights into UK law, is blamed for a surge in super-injunctions obtained by wealthy celebrities to hush up embarrassments such as affairs. And cases taken by Britons under the Convention to the European Court of Human Rights in Strasbourg lead to UK laws being over-ridden. It forces taxpayers to pay billions in compensation to the people who complained their rights were being infringed. The latest include the Courts ruling that our blanket ban on prisoners voting is unlawful and breaches their human rights. They could be in line for massive compensation payouts. The cases have prompted increasing numbers of MPs and other critics of Europe including the Daily Express which is spearheading a crusade to free Britain from the EU to seek ways to extricate ourselves from the dictat of the Court and Convention. Dr Lee Rotherham, of the TaxPayers Alliance, says that

He said: There is also an urgent need to make sure that the courts efciency is improved so its vast backlog of cases is reduced and for states to send the best possible judges to serve on the court. More than 140,000 cases are pending and the quality of the courts judges has been criticised. The court is not part of the EU but all member states have signed up to it and the European Convention on Human Rights it enforces.

broadband charges. But other providers are also raising their fees. TalkTalk has already announced it plans to raise its call charges by 16 per cent, call connection fees by 12 per cent and line rental by two per cent. Sky will raise charges for its customers on June 20, though the company has not yet revealed by how much. And Virgin Media increased its line rental by six per cent earlier this month. Michael Phillips, of the phone price comparison service Homephonechoices.co.uk, called the price rises disappointing. He said: Other suppliers will inevitably follow BT, as we saw with repeated copycat price increases in 2010. This latest price increase will do little to ease the rising cost of living that UK consumers are facing. Customers wanting to stay with BT should review their calling patterns and seriously consider switching to an anytime calling plan.
@em\jk
Ernest Doku, telecoms expert at price comparison site uSwitch.com said: Our recent customer survey showed BTs customers were no longer happy with the overall service they were receiving, so for prices to then go up is another turn of the screw. A lot of the other telecoms providers will follow suit. We already know everybody is going to be putting their prices up. BT has made no ofcial announcement on the increases but details were included in a leaet sent out with bills. A spokesman said: Millions of people have signed up to our Unlimited Anytime Plan in the last year and 75 per cent of UK landline calls on our network are now free. Our Anytime customers dont worry about call charges as their UK calls, 24/7, are included for 4.70 a month. The changes mean we can invest in even better value plans.

BRITAIN needs to prepare for the long haul in Libya, Foreign Secretary William Hague warned yesterday. He raised the prospect of RAF warplanes ying bombing raids on Colonel Gaddas forces for months to come. This is likely to put pressure on Britains over-stretched military which is ghting an intensive war in Afghanistan while undergoing deep cuts. But Defence Secretary Liam Fox yesterday met his US opposite number Robert Gates in Washington DC to plot how to apply even more military pressure on the Gadda regime. This could include intensifying attacks on Gaddas supply chain as well as his frontline forces. The Allies are likely to tighten the blockade of Tripoli to starve him of the rened oil he needs for his war machine. A Downing Street spokesman said that yesterday morning Mr Hague told his Cabinet colleagues: There were grounds for optimism, good progress was being made, the alliance was holding up very well, but clearly we need to turn up the pressure. The mission is
9pAf_e@e^_Xd
to involve civilian rather than military ights. Mr Hague also said Britain is working with its international partners on a range of sanctions if Assad continues attempts to crush the revolt. He said: Syria is at a fork in the road. It can choose ever more violent repression which can only ever bring short-term security for the authorities there. Options are understood to include freezing the foreign assets of Assad and his henchmen, banning them from entering the EU, or seeking a trial for crimes against humanity. Britain is also considering pushing for a UN Security Council resolution condemning Assads repression. Last night the town of Banias on the Mediterranean coast was braced for an assault from Assads security forces following pro-democracy demonstrations. One protester said armoured personnel carriers were operating nearby, adding: We expect an attack any moment. We will receive them at the gates with our bare chests.

NEVER mind one black sheep in the family, there are 60 in this ock. And amazingly the black lambs were born to 37 white ewes and one proud ram, also white. Farmer Sally Du Toit, 39, and husband Jacob, 29, saw the rst lamb born on April 2 and have been stunned by similar arrivals every day since. All were sired by one-year-old ram Rowley who, despite his black face, has a pure white eece. Sally, who lives near Royston, Herts, said: We feel blessed. I love the colour. People are stopping in their cars to look and ask if they are a special kind of breed. Peter Morris of the National Sheep Association said yesterday: Sixty from 37 ewes is odd. A genetic throwback is likely but the gene must be very strong. To have it on this number is quite rare. They are right to feel blessed.

AN elderly Italian couple found bludgeoned to death in their home had to come to Britain to create a better life, their family said yesterday. Guiseppe Massaro, 80, and his wife Caterina, 77, moved to England more than 40 years ago and were well loved by all they knew. They were about to become great-grandparents. Their bodies were discovered on Good Friday by their granddaughter Lindsey Booth after relatives were unable to contact them. They had been the victims of a sustained and ferocious hammer and knife attack by thieves, who ransacked the house and loaded stolen property into the couples car before driving off. Lindsey, 23, said the family couldnt even begin to describe the devastation and trauma they were put through. She added: We cant begin to grasp the evil that took place in their house and how frightened they would have been. An entire generation was taken away from us that day and we cant comprehend how something could have gone this far to lead to their deaths. Guiseppe and Caterina came to England in the 1960s to look for work and create a better life for themselves. Since being in the country they did nothing but work hard

STARS including DAVID BECKHAM and RIHANNA have ended up red-faced after getting tattoos in foreign languages only for them to be misspelled. Now another victim, Heroes star HAYDEN PANETTIERE, has come up with an innovative solution just dont go anywhere that people will notice. The 21-year-old had the phrase live without regrets emblazoned on her back in Italian in 2009. But unfortunately Vivere senza rimipianti picked up an extra letter i by mistake. Heres the thing, if youre going to get a tattoo in a language, just dont ever go to that country, the 21-year-old said on US TV show The View, or a country where anyone speaks that language. But Haydens not letting the mishap get her down. You know what, Im left to live up to what it means. Im proud of it.

THREE kids can be a handful but not for Hollywood actress Julia Roberts who reckons she has cracked the secret of perfect parenting. And luckily for the rest of us mere mortals Julia, 43, happily reveals that she juggles the demands of motherhood with an A-list career by simply smiling and sharing meals. If you can get through the day with a smile thats extraordinary. And if everybody else in your house is also smiling, thats truly extraordinary, she said. Thats the power of dinner. Although shes mum to six-yearold twins Hazel and Phinnaeus, and Henry, three, somehow we cant quite imagine glamorous Julia going barefoot in the kitchen. MUSIC MAN: Timberlake
HE PLAYED a kidnapper in Alpha Dog and was arrested for cocaine abuse in The Social Network. In real life, though, JUSTIN TIMBERLAKE says his only crime would be to quit music for acting. I do love acting but the thing that I do more natural than anything in the world is probably music, says the 30-year-old Cry Me A River singer. I think it would be a crime to myself to not continue to have that be a part of my life.

IS THIS the silliest showbiz feud of the year? Real estate magnate Donald Trump has hit out at Robert De Niro, calling the actor not the brightest bulb on the planet after De Niro compared him to a car salesman. Trump, who played Alan Sugar s role in the original US version of The Apprentice, has been out campaigning for a possible run for president. And hes spoken out in support of birthers who doubt that Barack Obama was born in the US. But his remarks have prompted harsh criticism from De Niro, 67. Certain people in the news the last couple of weeks, just what are they doing? Its crazy, the Raging Bull star said at the Tribeca Film Festival in New York last week. Theyre making statements about people that they dont even back up. Go get the facts before you start saying things about people. He continued: Its like a big hustle. Its like being a car salesman. Dont go out there and say things unless you can back them up. How dare you? Thats awful to do. But Trump, 64 nicknamed The Hair

WHICH well-known politician embarrassingly had to leave a private house party early after his wife angrily accused him of chatting up a female guest half his age?
KildgXe[;\ E`ifjhlXi\lg
SPAT: Donald Trump, left, and De Niro for his famous comb-over reckons De Niro should stick to acting. He told US network Fox on Monday: Well, hes not the brightest bulb on the planet. Ive been watching him over the years and I like his acting but, you know, in terms of when I watch him doing interviews and various other things, were not dealing with Albert Einstein. De Niro isnt the rst celebrity to criticise Trumps campaign. Last week comic Jerry Seinfeld dropped out of a fundraiser for Trumps sons charity, the Eric Trump Foundation, saying he objected to Trumps demagoguery.
DANIEL RADCLIFFE made his standup debut of sorts on US TV on Monday night, telling just one joke pinched from PETER KAY. Appearing on Late Night With Jimmy Fallon he told the host hed always loved and admired standups, so Fallon gave him the opportunity to take to the stage. Where Radcliffe reiterated the Kay classic: How do you kill a circus? Go for the jugular. But to give him his due he did acknowledge the gag was borrowed from the Bolton-born comic. And, proving he does have a good sense of non-scripted humour he responded rather wittily to a female audience members screams of Daniel I love you! with: I love you too we should probably see other people, though.

AS A close friend of the late Princess of Wales, Sir Elton John knows better than most the pitfalls of royal life. Which perhaps explains why the 64-year-old singer, who is a VIP guest at Fridays nuptials, is APPROVAL: Sir Elton lled with admiration for Kate Middleton for going through with her marriage to Prince William. Lets face it, we know what that kind of marriage entails. I admire her for going through with it, he said. Its about two people falling in love and getting into a situation, for her especially, where its going to be the most difcult life. Although Elton admits hes not all that close to the happy couple, he was thrilled to receive his invitation: Ive met William and Harry only twice, he says. But Im very glad to be invited because I think its going to be a very joyous day and I think Diana would be very, very happy with his choice. Kate seems such a great girl and they seem so much in love.

It is estimated the 300ft walk to the altar at Westminster Abbey will take Kate three-and-a-half minutes, four if her dress is heavy. Breaking from tradition the aisle will not divide the brides side of the family from the grooms. Princess Dianas family, including her brother Earl Spencer, will sit behind the Middletons. Retailers reckon the royal wedding will provide a 480million boost to the economy, thanks to spending on bunting and other festive essentials. The supermarkets predict that they will sell more than 500 miles of the stuff, which would stretch from the Abbey to St Andrews, where Wills and Kate rst met, and on to Balmoral. Fiona Cairns, who started baking cakes in her Leicestershire kitchen and now sells them at Harrods and Selfridges, is making a traditional multi-tiered fruit cake. Meanwhile William has revived the Victorian tradition of a grooms cake and ordered a huge fridge cake from McVities made from Rich Tea biscuits, chocolate and dried fruit. It will be served at the canap reception following the ceremony. Kate is determined to keep her gown a secret from William and it looks as if she has succeeded. She has kept it private from the entire world. We dont even know for sure who will be designing it. The latest name mentioned, Sophie Cranstons Liblula label, has issued a at denial. We are not designing Kate Middletons wedding dress. We, like everyone else, cant wait to nd out who is, says a spokesperson for the design house. Paul McCartney, Phil Collins and Joss Stone are all rumoured to be singing at the afternoon reception or evening party and there are whispers that the rst dance has been choreographed by Arlene Phillips. The crowds lining the procession route will have the Coldstream Guards Band to entertain them.

JOURNEY: Kates walk towards the altar could take four minutes
in Australia or King Abdullah of Jordans private getaway in the Red Sea resort of Aqaba. But not even the bride knows as William is determined to spring a surprise. Most of the 1,900 invitations have gone to the couples friends but the guest list also includes such cronies of Prince Charles as an oil tycoon from Kazakhstan and an American whose bank was ned millions for money laundering. Now that the repressive King and Crown Prince of Bahrain are staying away, the despotic King Mswati III of Swaziland is the most controversial guest. With 13 wives of his own he can at least offer William some expert advice.

Prince William is scheduled to wait for 40 minutes in the Abbey for his bride. This will allow him to greet the massed ranks of arriving royal families (desperately trying to remember those European cousins names) and a few moments of privacy in an ante chapel (which may or may not have a lavatory).

Kate reportedly wanted to wear owers in her hair but it now seems she could be wearing the Queens George III diamond tiara. It is part of the Crown Jewels and was made in 1919 for Queen Mary. The Queen Mother, the Queen and Princess Anne wore it for their weddings but Kate would be the rst commoner to do so. Speculation arose after someone put a 6,000 bet on her using it and was assumed to have inside information.

It could be the Isles of Scilly or the Seychelles, or perhaps Kenya (much-loved by William and where he chose to propose), Mustique (much-loved by all the Middleton family), Lizard Island

20/1 that Kate has twins. 24/1 that Harry drops the ring during the service. 26/1 that Harry forgets the ring.

If youll be in London on the day and dont fancy camping out for a pitch on the procession route you can watch the wedding on giant screens in Hyde Park or Trafalgar Square. Youll get the best view if you watch it at home on the box.
The sun is not coming out for the big day if the Met Ofce is to be believed. Thunder storms, lightning and brisk winds are predicted but contingency plans are in place.

How long will Kate leave William waiting at the altar? This is the question William Hill has taken most money on.

Most brides embark on Operation Wedding Dress but Kate has been in danger of wasting away. She had to swap some honeymoon trousers in size 10 for size eights. Even if the dress is a six theres little danger of her not getting into it.

A TERRIFIED woman farmer dialled 999 after gypsies threatened to kill her only for police to accuse her of threatening them and conscating her legally-held shotguns. Tracy St Clair Pearce, 50, who is suffering from terminal cancer, claims she was confronted by four men wielding a chainsaw and a knife after travellers set up camp on land bordering her home in Colchester, Essex. She said the men bombarded her with missiles and even exposed themselves to her while trespassing on her land. After making the emergency call, it took 35 minutes for police to arrive. They went on to subject Miss St Clair Pearce, who has breast cancer and has been told she has just ve months to live, to a three-hour grilling. No action was taken against the men, but 48 hours later armed ofcers arrived at the dead of night to remove two shotguns.

Miss St Clair Pearce, who kept the legal guns at her property for 20 years, said yesterday she was left feeling like a criminal. She said her ordeal began as she was in her garden on Good Friday at around 7pm. She heard a chainsaw being red up and saw four men lurking near a barn in her eld. She told them she was prepared to stand her ground and one of the men took that as a challenge. He jumped back over the brook which separates the land and picked up a fence post and hurled it at me, she said. He then screamed, I will slit your throat, I will slit the throats of your calves and cows. After she gave a lengthy statement, an inspector arrived at around 11.30pm and accused Miss St Clair Pearce of making threats against the travellers. At the week-

She said: I was the victim of the crime. I have never been in trouble with the police. My last speeding ticket was in 1979, yet I was made to feel like I was the criminal. Around 50 travellers had set up an illegal camp last week when 18 caravans rolled on to an adjacent eld after a lock on a gate was smashed. Essex Police said the guns were seized as a sensible precaution. Chief Superintendent Alison Newcomb said: This is a long-running and sensitive issue. Counter allegations have been made on both sides, it is not as clear cut as it seems. Last night Miss St Clair Pearces brother Stuart said: A few of the travellers tell me they feel like they are untouchable.

A MENACING cloud of acidic birch pollen which eats into the paintwork of cars is blowing towards Britain from Europe. Millions of cars could be affected at the end of the week when the pollen reaches the UK. To compound the misery, hay fever sufferers are being warned of a nightmare scenario of the cloud arriving at the same time as pollen levels are rising in Britain. The birch pollen cloud has already hit Germany, where authorities have warned motorists to immediately wash it off their cars or risk damage that could result in owners having to fork out for a full respray. Though birch pollen from British trees is currently in peak season, levels have remained moderate and are therefore not posing such a problem. However, the Met Ofce has predicted that winds from Europe will head towards the UK tomorrow and Friday. Karl-Heinz Nottrodt, a pollen specialist at the German Meteorology Institute said: There is a heavy cloud of pollen making its way from Eastern Europe. It is now hitting Germany hard and will continue towards France and the UK over the next few days. The extreme dry, warm weather has also meant that a lot of the pollen could not be washed away as is normal at this time of year. Birch tree pollen is a main cause of hay fever, triggering allergic

reactions in around a quarter of sufferers. Allergy sufferers are being warned to prepare for the increase in pollen levels. Jonathan Powell, of Positive Weather Solutions, said: Its the pollen season now and levels are already particularly high. To have birch pollen blowing in from the continent as well is a nightmare scenario. An AA spokesman warned drivers who suffer from the allergy to prepare for the high levels of pollen in the next few days. He said: The biggest concern is for hay fever sufferers. Suffering a reaction can impair your driving. But if you are going to get treatment, make sure you tell whoever is prescribing it whether or not youre going to be driving a car. In Germany, car paint specialist Klaus Herdemertens has been dealing with cars already damaged by the birch pollen. He said: If the pollen is left on the car, it can burn through the paintwork. It could end up costing motorists hundreds of pounds each to have their vehicles resprayed The pollen is very abrasive and also slightly acidic. If left, over time it will damage painted surfaces. The car should be washed thoroughly and not just wiped, otherwise the pollen will stick to the car. Mr Herdemertens advised car owners to spray them with specialist car paint cleaner and then take them to the car wash. Garden furniture, windows and beer gardens in Germany are also being affected by the pollen. Klaus Bacher, a beer garden owner in Cologne, said: The pollen is everywhere, on the menus, the chairs and all over our terrace. It stains quickly, so we have to keep cleaning it off. This year is worse than ever. Its not all bad news, however. The UKs gloriously

PEPPING up your diet with red peppers can curb the appetite, it was claimed yesterday. People who eat red peppers are also likely to burn more calories after a meal, according to US researchers. Richard Mattes, professor of foods and nutrition at Purdue University, in West Lafayette, Indiana, said the effects applied particularly to people who do not eat peppers regularly. He said: This nding should be considered a piece of the puzzle. The idea that one small change will reverse the obesity epidemic is not true. However, if a number of small changes are added together, they may be meaningful. Dietary changes that dont require great effort to
the evening meal following lunch, no matter which of the three alternatives were chosen. The study said: The results suggest that consumption of eggs for lunch has a stronger effect on satiety than other typically consumed carbohydrate-based lunches, and could represent a benecial component of a diet aimed at controlling weight. But it warned that exercise and lifestyle were also important factors, particularly for workers stuck behind a desk. Dietician Dr Carrie Ruxton
?le^\i
And with busy workers less likely than ever to cook a breakfast before work, eggs are more likely to be eaten at lunchtime, said the researchers. They tested 31 volunteers who all had a standard breakfast of cereal with milk but alternated between the three lunchtime options over a three-week period. They were questioned on how full they felt, how much they liked each lunch and their levels of hunger in the hours after lunch. The omelette was the most lling and satisfying of all, followed by the chicken sandwich and the jacked potato third. Meals that are less lling, even if they have the same calories, can lead to a dip in energy levels and people then snack on a biscuit or cake mid-afternoon. There was little or no difference in the amount of energy intake in
implement, like sprinkling red pepper on your meal, may be sustainable and benecial in the long run, especially when paired with exercise and healthy eating. Other studies have found that capsaicin, the component that gives chili peppers their heat, can reduce hunger and cause more calories to be burned. But Prof Mattes said the amounts tested were not realistic for most people. The new six-week study using ground cayenne pepper found that those who ate red pepper regularly experienced a decrease of hunger, especially for fatty, salty and sweet foods. The study was published in the journal Physiology and Behavior.
said: This research is good news for slimmers. Previous studies have shown that eating eggs for breakfast can increase satiety and help with weight loss, but many people dont have time for a cooked breakfast. Now it seems that eating eggs at lunchtime has a similar effect on controlling appetite. An egg-based lunch is not only healthy because its relatively low in fat and saturated fat, but could help to keep slimmers away from the biscuit tin during the dreaded post-lunch dip.
Size does matter Car-crash driver for bird-brained was girl aged 13
BIRDS with small brains are under threat because they are not smart enough to survive urban expansion, say scientists. Those with bigger brains, relative to their size, are better at adapting to a new way of life. The corn bunting, tree sparrow and grey partridge have smaller brains and have suffered huge declines. The great tit, blue tit and magpie have larger The grey brains for their size and partridge have all done well. is at risk Researchers analysed breeding patterns of 82 species of birds, in and around 12 cities in France and Switzerland, and found brain size was linked with successful colonisation. Dr Alexei Maklakov, of Swedens Uppsala University, said: The combined effect of urban land and farmland can lead to faster loss of birds from small-brained lineages. A GIRL of 13 was driving a car carrying eight people when it crashed, a court heard yesterday. The girls mother was also in the ve-seater car and was sitting on the lap of a 14-year-old in the passenger seat. The mother admitted allowing her daughter to drive the overloaded car in Swansea, South Wales. Magistrates heard the girl was practising driving in a car park when she lost control and crashed into a bin and an ofce. Prosecutor Julie Sullivan said: The mother told police she had not realised a car park was deemed a public place. She tried to activate the handbrake but was unable to prevent the collision. Magistrates in Swansea heard six of the passengers were teenagers, and one suffered black eyes after the crash. The mother, in her 30s, also admitted using a vehicle without correct insurance. No one involved in the case can be identied. The woman was banned from driving for 12 months and ordered to pay 300 compensation and 85 costs. /lmx

Sean Duffy, a cancer specialist from Leeds Teaching Hospital who helped draw up the guidelines, said: If you have got symptoms of ovarian cancer, you must do something about it. That is why we have pushed for a blood test to be offered in primary care to get women on the right treatment pathway as soon as possible. The CA125 blood test is not conclusive and women will still require an ultrasound scan to conrm cancer. In around half of early ovarian cancer cases, it can also come back negative, which is why doctors say women who have the symptoms on more than 12 days a month must return to their doctors for more tests. Charles Redman, a consultant gynaecologist from the University Hospital of North Staffordshire who also worked on the guidelines, added: There is not a perfect test out there but we are trying to improve a situation that is not good. Charities welcomed the new guidelines last night. Frances Reid, of Target Ovarian Cancer, said: This guidance tackles for the rst time critical issues facing women who develop ovarian cancer, and could save hundreds of lives.

Of the 6,800 women diagnosed in Britain every year, only a third live beyond ve years. Survival rates are higher in countries such as Australia, Canada and Denmark, partly because of earlier diagnosis. Under new recommendations by NHS advisory body, the National Institute for Health and Clinical Excellence (NICE), GPs will offer a simple blood test for CA125, a protein that is higher in cancer patients. At present this test is offered in hospitals after they have been referred to a consultant. But NICE believes precious time is wasted this way.

HE story of Isobel Jones-Reilly who died of a drug overdose at a party frightens parents but how do teenagers react? I think that if youre closely connected with someone who has been taken to hospital or died then it would act as a massive wake-up call. However it is difcult to relate to something if you havent been inuenced directly which is why drug use among teenagers will, unfortunately, continue. I have been to many parties where there have been drugs readily available. Im sure if you took a group of 14-year-olds the majority of them would have smoked a joint, got drunk and maybe more. Because its the done thing, keeping up is what is important. Not only do teenagers feel obliged to do these things but also to document every moment of a night out on Facebook, telling those who missed it how great it was. This cyber addiction has led to many people being judged not for who they are but for whos writing on their wall, their prole pictures and the number of friends they have. But we cant blame everything on Facebook. Drugs are part of culture and always have been. Theyre very easy to get hold of. But from my own experience I think that alcohol can be just as dangerous. It has been said that had alcohol come on to the market now it would be a class A drug. I know that it leads to bad judgment and to making a fool of yourself. I think that if cannabis is considered a gateway drug then alcohol is even more so. Whos taken drugs who hasnt drunk alcohol rst? Id say the number would be very few. I know that at the age of 14 or 15 I didnt know much about who I was or what I wanted to do which Im guessing is the same for most teenagers. Schools teach us only to pass exams and society teaches us to follow fashion. There is no real guidance about what path we should take and how we should live. Pressures often lead teenagers to get wasted at weekends like the adults they see coming home after a tough day and nishing a bottle of red. Unfortunately for parents one thing which has never changed is that teenagers do not want to discuss their private lives with them. Parents seem like the last people who would understand, though as I get older Im beginning to understand that this isnt true. Parents should ask their children what they are doing at the weekends not in an intrusive way but in a friendly, interested way. At least then they have some idea whats going on and can advise them. Its also crucial to make teenagers understand that they dont have to do everything at once. One minute were being told to conform, the next moment were told the opposite but ultimately youre never going to keep up with everything. So to use an old clich just be yourself.

friends getting up after a night celebrating the Easter holidays. They hog the bathroom and hoover up everything in the fridge but I would rather they were here than slumped on a strangers sofa or lying in a hospital. The death of Isobel, at 15, will send shivers down the spine of every parent who has dropped their child off at a party or been asked to go out by their kids when they have their friends round. When my three began having teenage parties we never went far from home, no matter how much they pleaded, and it was only as they got older that I relaxed enough to go out. It all seems light years from their toddler days when I believed you could stop worrying when they got older and became independent. How wrong I was. The teenage years are the scariest for parents by far as they step out in the world. And boy has it changed since our day. Yes, it has opened up for them but with it comes a multitude of modern pressures. The internet means they can meet people from all over the globe and from every walk of life, good and bad. Smart phones give them instant access to the internet and Facebook away from home and parents prying eyes. Add this to the already potent mix of hormones, friendships, love, body image worries and school, and parent pressure. Then theres drink and drugs. Both are far more available today and in an alarmingly alluring variety. As a parent you would be naive to think your children are not going to be tempted to experiment. If their friends are doing it, its hard to resist. Thats why so many young people smoke, despite all the Governments efforts. Its less to do with your parenting skills and more the crowd they are inuenced by. I think the pressure is particularly tough for girls. They are told they need the perfect body, the perfect boyfriend, to be able to hold their drink when they are challenged to drink ve vodka shots and be one of the boys when it comes to drugs. My daughter says: So many teenage girls lack condence and think taking drugs like ecstasy makes them happier and more condent. Or they do it to try to impress a boy they like. Hard core music like drum and bass, dubstep, techno and electro are associated with taking drugs. A lot of young people believe they help them have more fun. Terrifying words. So what do you teach your child? How can you keep them safe? No matter how much they rebel I hope ours have soaked up some of the values and beliefs we have tried to instil in them and can call on them in tricky situations. I hope they heed such guidelines as: get home safely, you can have a good time without getting drunk, some risks arent worth taking, just because someone does something you dont have to, and going your own way is admirable. Being too heavy-handed is not the answer (if someone keeps telling you not to do something you are more inclined to do it) but neither is being too liberal. Even teenagers want some boundaries. They may be growing up but you are still the parent. Its about getting a balance, not being too intrusive but not being so laid-back they think you dont care, or that anything goes. We can also set an example, like knowing when to stop. If we dive into a wine bottle at 6pm each night and dont stop because weve had a bad day, should we be surprised if they do the equivalent? They are young adults and can join the Army at 16 and vote at 18 but they need examples, and thats you and me. Lastly look out for signs. If they suddenly hang around with older or different people, start needing more /lmx

ENERALLY teenagers have the self-control of children and the urges of adults. Add naivety and Pandora-like curiosity and you have a dangerous combination that all parents know contains the potential for accidents. We dread poor Isobels fate befalling our own children. We cant blame teenagers for their urges. We were the same once, though thats not much comfort to us. We know how the young hunger to experience the vivid sensations the real world can offer. We hope that if and when the real world decides to deliver to our children the kind of vicious sucker punch we know it to be capable of, it will be a bruising, not a killer blow. Teenagers dont want to know you were once there too. It annoys them if you are difcult to shock and may provoke them to greater efforts. In any case understanding them is not our biggest problem; its not being understood by them. You watch them wake at midday and sit in front of the TV eating things in cartons from the fridge, not noticing other people are in the world, or even in the room. They are aliens from Planet Slob. Its the lowest point in most parents lives. Worrying about their welfare is bad enough; knowing that you are so dull it hurts your children just to look at you is worse. My daughter reached the point

cently touch them. He pinged girls bra straps and touched their bottoms, legs and breasts, the court was told. He also went into the girls changing rooms after PE lessons on the pretext of speaking to other sports teachers. Kerry Barker, prosecuting, said: This was an insidious form of grooming and a blatant breach of trust. Mr Walker was known among those pupils as, I quote, a perv. He was known as pervy Walker and touchy feely Walker. He went on: A number of pupils reported his behaviour to the headmaster at both schools but no action was taken, Mr Barker said. Girls were told they were being silly girls. It is quite clear that it was the schools intention to cover up the behaviour and the allegations. On some occasions they told the parents that it was not in the interest of the child to report the matters. The offences came to light last year. At an earlier hearing, Walker pleaded guilty to 14 counts of indecent assault, including 12 against girls, between 1978 and 1988, and two against boys
between 1994 and 1996. The offences were against seven pupils two aged under 13 and the rest older. Walker, 61, of Cannington, near Bridgwater, Somerset, pleaded not guilty to 10 other counts of the same offence between 1976 and 1990. He also denied three counts of sexual assault against boys, by touching, from 2006 to 2008. The charges were ordered to lie on le. Walker who had been in the profession for 36 years retired from fulltime teaching in 2004 but worked as a supply teacher until 2008. He is currently in remission from bowel cancer. Paul Mason, defending, said his client was truly remorseful. Walkers wife and sister wiped away tears as Judge David Ticehurst branded him a disgrace to the teaching profession. It was not an aberration on your part and it continued for many years, the judge said. No sentence I impose can undo the damage you have caused to these girls. Outside court, one victim said: We hope that it gives other victims the courage to come forward and report such incidents to the police.

Weve got her signed up with Iceland, shes got a TV role and shes negotiating a record contract. Were hoping to have an album out by the end of the year. Modest Management declined to comment.

Repayment changes
MINIMUM repayments on credit card debts were increased at the beginning of the month after new rules were introduced to encourage balances to be cleared faster. The new rules state that for all credit card applications from April 1, repayments must be at least 1 per cent of the balance plus that months interest, as well as any default charges or annual fee. Although the new rules only applied to new cardholders, many of the credit card giants also changed the minimum payment structure for existing customers. Increased minimum payments could be a struggle for anyone trying to clear debts off multiple cards and who is perhaps prioritising repaying the card with the highest rate of interest.
same but admitted some would face an immediate small increase. While some will pay a lower rate of interest initially, they will pay more in the future when rates do eventually start to rise. Customers could also nd that they will be charged a higher credit card interest rate if they miss repayments or are late with payments on other forms of nance taken out with any part of the Lloyds Banking Group, which owns Halifax. The bank says it is designed to make its charges more transparent and fair but money experts are urging borrowers to pay off their debts as soon as they possibly can before rates climb higher. Andrew Hagger at Moneynet.co.uk said: If you have got a credit card balance that you are trying to shift then its wise to pay off as much as you can while the base rate is low. Once it increases we will no doubt see higher credit card rates too. When rates go up, the interest charges will take a larger bite out of your monthly repayment. The credit card market remains extremely competitive but only for those with an excellent credit history, however, if youve missed a couple of repayments or failed to make them on

time, youre likely to be excluded from the latest long-term 0 per cent offers. Recent gures revealed that three quarters of would-be borrowers had been turned down for credit over the past six months. For those with an unblemished credit history it makes nancial sense to take advantage of some of the longest 0 per cent balance transfer cards: currently the longest stands at 20 months. Using such deals means paying off debts much faster since repayments go towards clearing debt rather than lining the banks pockets.

is changing as the state of the economy, and in particular employment prospects, has resulted in an increasing number of more mature people taking gap years and sabbaticals, says Andy Smith at Santander Cards. Even if you can earn a hefty salary abroad, you will still need to pay your mortgage and bills at home. Before you pack your rucksack, here are some things to consider.
RENTING A PROPERTY
THE main reason to rent out your house is to give you an income while you are away or to cover the mortgage payments. However, unless you have willing family and friends, youll probably need a letting agent. Agents charge anything from 8 per cent to 15 per cent for a fully managed service, says Ian Potter, operations manager for the Association of Residential Letting Agents (Arla.co.uk). This involves finding and vetting tenants, collecting the rent and organising emergency repairs. Check out your agent before you sign him or her up, says Potter: Cut-price fees can mean a cut-price service. Getting an agent approved by Arla, for example, gives you extra protection.
INSURANCE
MAKE sure your insurance policy covers all medical expenses, particularly if youre taking children with you. You can compare prices at websites such as Confused.com and Moneysupermarket.com. If youre not taking your car, get it off the road to cut down on your car tax and insurance, says Bob Atkinson, expert at Travelsupermarket.com. By contrast, your home insurance premiums may rise. Your insurer needs to know if you wont be in the property for an extended period, says Carmel McCarthy from insurer More Than. Your policy can be adjusted to offer you extra protection.
HOME OR AWAY?
BEFORE you pack your bags, you need to be sure it will really improve your career, says Philippa Gee of Shropshirebased independent financial adviser Philippa Gee Wealth Management. Make sure you target the key companies you want to work for in the countries youre visiting, and get the exact experience you need. It is worth asking recruitment agencies and employers in the UK if they think a gap year really will improve your prospects, she adds.

Q A
The website www.housing repossessions.co.uk tells you all you need to know about the very distressing experience of having a property repossessed. When a repossessed property is sold by the lender, the bank is entitled to recover the full outstanding mortgage debt from the sale proceeds and not just the arrears. The lender is also entitled to add the selling costs and any others it may have incurred in the repossession and sale process to the final sum owed by the borrower. Lenders will most likely continue to charge interest on the mortgage debt until the property is sold, meaning the final mortgage debt will very likely be considerably larger than the amount owed when the repossession order was made. If there is money left over after the full mortgage debt and all other costs have been paid, the balance of the sale proceeds should be returned to the borrower. You are entitled to a breakdown of how the final debt has been calculated. If you havent received this you should ask for it and compare it with the sale price.

Should I cash it in and invest in a safer investment and if so, where do you suggest? original Synergy plan is a regular-saver individual savings account (Isa) set up alongside life insurance and critical illness cover provided by Prudential and Hamilton Assurance (part of Aviva). By my reckoning, a lump sum of 25,000 with a monthly contribution of 80 needs to grow by about 5 per cent a year to achieve a nal value of about 33,000, so not a big stretch. However, if the 33,000 estimate is based on an illustration with a 7 per

instant-access rates look like a good deal when compared with a one-year xed Isa, says Andrew Hagger from Moneynet. However, even though you benet from added exibility, none of the top three variable Isas allow transfers in from existing Isas. If you do want to transfer money you have already saved in previous years Isas, the best deal is the e-Isa from Nationwide Building Society paying 3.1 per cent, including a 1.35 per cent bonus until the end of August 2012. While the rates on xed deals are generally more competitive, most either dont allow access during the term or allow access subject to a hefty penalty, says Slade. Savers must ensure they wont need access to their money before committing to a xed-rate deal. You also need to bear in mind that while rates on xed Isas may be higher than the rates on variable-rate deals, when the base rate rises in the nottoo-distant future, anyone locked into a xed-rate deal will not see any immediate benet. I would be wary of fixing for longer than two years, otherwise your
best buy rate may look far less appealing a couple of years down the line, adds Hagger. By contrast, the variable-rate Isas from Santander and Barclays will increase in line with base rate rises. Whether you decide on a fixed or variable Isa will be down to your own nancial situation, but either way its vital to make full use of your Isa, adds Hagger. With high ination and low rates, saving in an Isa is one of the few ways to get a reasonable return on your savings at present.

AVERS can now put up to 5,340 a year in a cash Isa (individual savings account) but those who want to make the most of this tax-free wrapper may be unsure whether to go for instantaccess or a xed-rate account. High demand by banks for savers money has led to a sharp rise in xedrate Isas, according to Moneyfacts, with the number of deals rising from just 69 in April 2009 to 160 today. Providers are keen to attract money into xed accounts as savers are less likely to withdraw tax-free savings over standard savings, says Michelle Slade from Moneyfacts, and as most xedrate Isas dont allow access during the term, providers can be certain of how long they will have the money for. Since the start of 2011 returns offered on xed-rate Isas have risen steadily. At present the top one-year fix is from Aldermore at 3.31 per cent, while the best two-year deal is 3.7 per cent from the Bank of Cyprus and the best three-year deal is 4.22 per cent from Principality Building Society, Slade says. For those looking to x for the longer term, Saffron Building Society is now paying 4.5 per cent on its four-year deal and Birmingham Midshires is paying 5 per cent on its ve-year x. So how do these rates compare with the best variable-rate deals? The AA is currently paying 3.35 per cent on its internet easy-access Isa, including a 1.65 per cent bonus for 12 months, while Santander is paying 3.3 per cent on its instant-access Flexible Isa 3, and Barclays is paying 3.25 per cent on its Golden Isa 3.

NLY the top spot will do for hat-maker Paula Cooper, who has won international acclaim for her eye-catching creations. South America has already decided that Cooper is heading in the right direction. One of the continents leading producers of straw panamas has asked her to give the hat, struggling with its stuffy gents image, a modern makeover. She has also recently been responsible for updating another dusty icon: the top hat. For that, I used a Sixties car seat material so that it both conformed to expectations and subverted them, she explains. This kind of approach goes down well with customers from the rock music and theatre worlds. I use a lot of recycled or vintage materials. My view is if you know your trade, you can make a hat out of anything and turn it into a stunning statement. Most of Coopers work is far less left field. Her core products centre on beautiful bespoke womens hats and fascinators, a style much favoured by royal bride-to-be Kate Middleton. Cooper hasnt contributed to Fridays big day in Westminster Abbey, but the success she has had in the past year suggests she could well feature at future royal occasions. The entrepreneur, who runs her venture from a home studio in Paisley, Renfrewshire, started out in 2009 after graduating from art school and working overseas as a milliner. The business turned over just 5,000 in its first year, so she also teaches part time to bring in extra money. But the past 12 months have seen a noticeable upturn after she was shortlisted for a prestigious international award, named as one of Scotlands top designers and took various courses to improve her business sense. Cooper also featured in an exhibition at Londons Institute for Contemporary Arts organised by the Scottish Textile Industry Association showcasing the best of the nations designers and fabric makers. Theres an awful lot of energy on the enterprise front now in Scotland, says C o o p e r . Home-grown talent is being recognised and supported. The textiles initiative was brilliant for contacts and the nominations brought

me to the attention of the panama hat firm in Ecuador. The country grows some of the best natural bre and the company employs expert weavers in villages, but worries about cheap competition from China. The Ecuadorians want to preserve their artistry but think their weave patterns can be updated, and thought someone from outside could bring in some fresh thinking. They saw my hats and asked me to work with local artisans. Their panamas are wonderful. They can be rolled up, then just spring back into shape when opened. The hat itself is an effective sun shield, comfortable and airy, she adds. Every rm needs ideas and inspiration but Cooper realised that alone was never going to be enough for her to achieve commercial success. I badly lacked business skills, she says. Cooper was chosen to take part in Scotlands Starter For 6 enterprise training programme for upand-coming creative entrepreneurs. She benefited from a 500 grant to learn about web and social network marketing. The knowledge and contacts I gained have been priceless, she explains. Her products, all of which are originals and made to order, cost between 50 and 1,600. I was intending to work overseas, but people kept asking me to make hats here, she says. Once she starts selling online, Cooper hopes to take on a trainee and develop a plan to design a range of hats for a big national chain such as Topshop. She is also working on designs for an exhibition next year to celebrate 100 years of Harris tweed production. Ive realised Scotland has very few milliners, she says, so theres a lot of potential right here for my business. peacoopermillinery. com, or phone 07845 755637. www.textiles cotland.co.uk. /lmx

Y father, who taught in prisons for many years, always maintained that a surprising number of inmates were very nice chaps. Going by the ones studying in his class for a German O-level they werent wicked or beyond hope, they just couldnt see the link between their actions and the likely consequences. Perhaps the core issue of the whole penal system is how you make people see that link. By having them break rocks in a chain gang while existing on a diet of bread and water or giving them a taste of all the better ways in which actions can have consequences? At THE PRISON RESTAURANT (BBC1), a unique experiment within the walls of a Surrey jail, inmates
as lives were turned around in his restaurant. Hope was on the menu but some threw it away. The thing about Al was that he took a genuine interest in those he hired. He encouraged them, asked them about themselves and took a personal, almost paternal, joy in their triumphs. Furthermore, when they messed up he took it personally, just like a father. There was a neat bit of editing partway through this lm when warders searched the cell of a man who had cut his arms to ribbons. You got any blades in here, mate? asked a prison ofcer in a weary, bored, detached way as he stepped over a puddle of blood. However, in the restaurant, wittily named The Clink, the inmates got an older, smarter male gure who was actually bothered
about them. For many it was the rst time in their lives someone was going to the trouble of taking an interest. For all its warm and fuzzy moments, though, we never lost sight of the grim reality of prison life or the fact that some people are unable to see a golden opportunity. Take Dominic, a baby-faced, sunny-natured mugger who just couldnt stop blowing it. He was bright, talkative, even charming but something was missing inside. There was no understanding that hed have to change. Ultimately, he couldnt see the point of putting any real effort into his future because he didnt believe there would be one. Sadly, no amount of schemes and funding could alter that fact. This was a moving, original,
thought-provoking piece of lm-making, not least because the heroes and obvious success stories were only one part of it. Channel 5 news presenter Matt Barbet went on the trail of insider gossip in WILLIAM AND KATE: THE STORY SO FAR (Channel 5), talking to friends of the young couple and royal watchers of all hues. It was an intriguing and very watchable programme, rather than a dirt-dishing one, much in keeping with the general feeling of goodwill towards the pair and their big day. However, it did dare to wonder why Prince William dumped his bride-to-be in 2007. Wives and girlfriends everywhere had answered this before Mr Barbet chose to. Its because men can be foolish, even future monarchs.

Is Prince Williams marriage to commoner Kate Middleton a decisive break from tradition? Not at all, argues historian David Starkey (right). From the Middle Ages to the abdication crisis he nds plenty of precedent for commoners marrying royalty. English princes have often married for love rather than political or dynastic reasons and such marriages have dened the English monarchy and shaped British history. William himself is descended from another Kate, Katherine Swynford, the daughter of a royal servant who married her boss. Starkey reveals it as the logical next step in a long struggle to return our monarchy to its native roots, preserving it as a focus of national identity.

In this family sitcom, Maddy sets out to prove she isnt an interfering mum while Jim tries to deal with his addiction to coffee. The comedy stars Caroline Quentin and Neil Dudgeon as second time newlyweds with Quentin playing the multi-tasking mother Maddy while Dudgeon is the stoical father Jim. Elsewhere in the episode Ted (Patrick Nolan, above) tries to give some romantic advice to his stepbrother Danny (Taylor Fawcett). It is of course only a matter of time before we discover which member of the family will crack rst.

PEOPLE are bound to be angry that relaxation of benefit rules means up to 100,000 citizens of Eastern Europe could be heading here after May 1 (Migrants flood back to Britain, April 25). What a nightmare that theyll be able to claim up to 250 a week in handouts when the rest of us are suffering wage cuts and daily rises in living costs. Many British workers struggling to make ends meet would love the chance to earn 250 a week but are treated as second-class citizens. What chance is there of making our country a better place to live if the Government gives the green light to these immigrants? Where are they to be housed when there are not enough properties as it is? I hope David Cameron and the rest of the coalition have the common sense to pull us out of the EU, which is the only way to stop this madness. Were a tolerant nation but this is a step too far, which will mean losing our identity for ever. Ann Constant, By email

WHY is every decision from the EU bad for Britain and not to our advantage? Can someone tell me what benefits membership has ever brought us? Im moved to ask these questions when once again were required to comply with EU diktats, this time over benefits that can be claimed by a fresh onslaught of immigrants from the impoverished former Eastern bloc. Any new influx will do our economy more harm than good. So much for David Camerons pledge to cut the number of migrant workers. If this goes ahead, Britain will be even more of a magnet and well never get back on our feet as a nation. Thats unless were freed from the stifling, dictatorial rule of power-hungry Brussels bureaucrats dim enough to believe that one size fits all. B Ireland, Sheffield

ITS time the Government dragged the public sector kicking and screaming into the 21st century instead of continuing to throw taxpayers money at it. Over recent years it has been allowed to expand to the size where its nearly as big as the private sector, the difference being that the latter funds both. Some top managers are paid more than the Prime Minister, which is an absurd situation. Then these same people hire private consultants on monstrous fees to advise them. Central government must exercise some measure of control to ensure that taxpayers money is
spent wisely. However, when will this happen? Now more money is required to pay for public sector pensions, which means workers in the private sector, already struggling to fund their own pensions, contributing more taxes. Arthur Edwards, Warrington, Cheshire

FOR once I am in total agreement with a trade union leader, with regard to headteachers on fat-cat salaries being made to publish how much they earn (Publish salaries to curb fat-cat school heads, urges union, April 26). NASUWT general secretary Chris
Keates is right in calling for heads to come under the same scrutiny as other public sector workers so that taxpayers cash is properly accounted for. Salaries of up to 160,000 for running a school cannot be justified. As for the unnamed head of an academy who resigned only to be re-employed on a three-day week as a consultant for 100,000, words almost fail me. Pay transparency is vital across the public sector so taxpayers can decide for themselves if senior people give good value. Would any head who values their good reputation argue with that?

I DO fail to see what Barrie Warren (Letters, April 25) has to be joyful about with regard to the massive increase in British car manufacturing output. Yes, we may still turn out lots of cars in Britain but the reality is that few are truly British because most manufacturers are in fact foreign-owned (even Ford is an American company). This has been the case for many years. Unfortunately, we have allowed foreign firms to infiltrate our core industries, even to the point of moving plants abroad to the detriment of British workers. Where I agree with Mr Warren is his advice to George Osborne to stand tall and tell the EU where to get off. L OBee, Southampton

WHAT kind of country have we become if 100,000 more immigrants can claim state benefits made up of money we dont have? Where is the backbone that freed most of Europe from tyranny 66 years ago, only to see it re-form in the shape of the EU? Let the backbone of Britain have an in or out referendum on the EU, one thats far more important than a referendum on AV. Dave Croft, Sheffield

WHY not show footage of someone passing away (Row over real death film on BBC, April 26)? We in Britain still cling to an absurdly Victorian view of death, sidestepping conversation about it and failing to address the inevitable reality we must all one day face. For the BBC to include in a medical programme about the life cycle of the human body the death of an aged cancer sufferer (who himself hoped it would help others) may encourage families to talk more about the subject and better prepare for their own end. Jack Jones, Preston, Lancs

SO David Cameron and the Chancellor, George Osborne, have publicly stated that the EUs demand for more money is unacceptable (PM: We wont cave in to EU money grab, April 22). I hope they stand up for the overtaxed British public and tell Brussels that no means no and more contributions will be forthcoming only when auditors sign off the EU accounts. If these terms and conditions are unacceptable then the British public should be given a referendum on our continued membership of the EU. Simon Spurge, Emsworth, Hants
HOW on Earth does showing the last breaths of a dying man help us to better understand death? I for one am totally mystified. This ghastly stunt by the BBC is nothing more than the trivialisation of death in pursuit of ratings. What is the BBCs agenda? Showing people dying isnt right, whatever the circumstances. Lets not cross this Rubicon. As if that isnt enough, were bombarded by the media with unnecessary information about an assisted suicide clinic in Switzerland. No thanks. M Carr, Leicester

including some of Italys biggest banks may yet counterbid to ensure Parmalat remains Italian owned. There was no such help for Cadbury when the British chocolate maker was gobbled up by Kraft of the US last year. Britain played by the rules despite unease about Cadburys fate and it is vital that in the case of Parmalat regulators do not allow the Italians to rewrite the law to suit themselves. ACCOUNTANTS are taking over the world or at least running more of our big companies. A survey by recruiter Robert Half shows that 49pc of FTSE 100 chief executives have nancial backgrounds, up from 31 per cent three years ago. Of nine appointed in the past year, six started in nance. Robert Half says demand for nancial expertise has been driven by increasing regulation. While the shift is understandable, it seems a pity that talented executives with other skills, perhaps
OU have to admire the French and Italians for their double standards when it comes to business. Both claim to be free-market economies but attempts by a foreign rm to buy one of their own are usually met by erce opposition. The sparks are ying between the two after French dairy giant Lactalis tabled a 3billion bid for Italian rival Parmalat. Lactalis has been sizing up a possible deal for some time and was keen to move before Italian politicians pushed through changes in the law to protect strategically important companies. A consortium
in marketing or production, are being passed over. After all, big companies already employ nancial directors to crunch the numbers on behalf of their chief executives. BOARDROOM pay will be under the spotlight at Barclays annual shareholder meeting today when the bank faces a possible backlash over the 27million package for chief Bob Diamond. In good times investors often ignore pay rows but after seeing their shares drift sideways for two years Barclays shareholders are unlikely to feel too generous towards their executives.

Production in the last quarter surged ahead as orders came ooding in but some fear the sector is about to come off the boil
MANUFACTURINGS recovery is firmly on track after production surged during the rst three months of the year, the Confederation of British Industry said yesterday. The bosses organisation said orders were strong from home and abroad with growth rates at their fastest since 1995. The CBIs survey also found the number of manufacturers taking on staff had reached the highest level since January 1974 and followed upbeat retail and car manufacturing data published last week. CBI director-general John Cridland hailed another solid rise in production for the quarter to April and expected growth to continue over the

next three months. The manufacturing recovery remains rmly on track, he declared. However Cridland warned that costs were rising at their fastest rate in years, while analysts pointed out the gures for April showed signs the sector was weakening. The bulk of manufacturers expect to pass on higher costs to consumers over the next three months, piling the pressure on the Bank of England to increase interest rates. Aprils survey data came in well below City expectations, although the CBI pointed out it was still above long-

term averages. CBI head of economic analysis Lai Wah Co insisted growth remained robust. But Markit chief economist Chris Williamson said Aprils gures showed an unwelcome picture of rising price pressures and fragile demand, while IHS Global Insights Howard Archer said the survey adds to signs that the hitherto buoyant manufacturing sector may be gradually coming off the boil. He added risks to growth included an extended period of high prices, s overeign debt problems in Europe and disrupted manufacturing in Japan. Reasons for recovery included the relatively weak pound as well as stock rebuilding and orders.

VIKTOR Vekselberg, one of the oligarch partners in BPs Russian joint venture TNK-BP, has declared publicly that he and his fellow billionaires would be prepared to sell their stake. A sale would allow BP to go ahead with a 10billion share swap and Arctic exploration deal with Russian state-backed energy giant Rosneft. However Vekselberg warned the price would have to be right. BP has already offered $27billion (16.4billion) for the oligarchs 50 per cent stake in TNK-BP but they believe their half is worth more than $35billion. He said a
sale is possible: Of course it can happen. It will be an interesting proposal for us according to our understanding of the valuation of this company. There may be sticking point over how the oligarchs would be paid. It is believed they want BP and Rosneft shares. This could leave them with 10 per cent or more of the British oil major, deemed by many to be an unacceptably high level. Vekselberg said the oligarchs were very upset that BP breached the terms of a shareholder agreement to strike the Rosneft deal and insisted he was not so interested in money.

LINGFIELDS Derby trial has not thrown up an Epsom winner since 1998 but could have a realistic chance this year depending on how Frankel runs in the 2,000 Guineas this Saturday. Henry Cecil, who won the trial four times in the early 80s and last year with Bullet Train, could run World Domination at the Surrey track on May 7 if Frankel, also owned by Prince Khalid Abdullah and trained by Cecil, runs in the Dante. World Domination ran out an impressive winner at Newbury on his debut this month, since when his Epsom odds have tumbled from 10-1 to a best-price 13-2. Cecils plans are uid and depend on how Derby favourite Frankel runs at the weekend. He could go straight to the Derby, go to Epsom via the Dante or be kept to Ground One races at around a mile.

have cause to consider his winter options if he continues to punch above his weight with a Lancashire squad already down to the bare bones after just three games. The ongoing legal wrangle over the redevelopment of Old Trafford meant there was no budget to enhance the squad before the season, so Moores started with a staff of just 19 for three formats. Injuries to Tommy Smith, Ollie Newby and Kyle Hogg plus the absence of Jimmy Anderson, who returned from England World Cup duty in need of rest, have already reduced that to 15. Moores said: We probably have the smallest staff on the circuit but the lads are committed and know there will be opportunities at any stage. There is also a strong team spirit 15 or 16 of this squad are Lancashire lads which helps. The reality, though, is that there are going to be times when we are under pressure because we havent got the depth. Lancashires strong start has pleasantly surprised Moores, but he says it has been no uke. Last year we nished a very solid fourth if we hadnt lost to Somerset in the penultimate game we could have been challenging for the title, he said. We are sneaking up on the rails. If I was being realistic, though, the T20 is probably our best chance this year. Certainly, it is very important with the possible entry into the Champions League that goes with it.

READING are celebrating becoming the rst English club to reach the semi-nals of the Euro Hockey League. All they want now is a repeat of their European championship winning feat of 2003. To do that they must beat Madrids Club de Campo next month, with Dutch rival clubs Oranje Zwart of Eindhoven or HGC of The Hague waiting in the nal. An English team in the womens European nal is guaranteed as Slough and Leicester, also in Holland, both made it through to be drawn against each other in the semi-nals. Reading could do

without a rerun of the drama of a game against the champions of Belgium, KHC Dragons. That nished 2-2 in normal time and was decided by video evidence in a frantic 4-3 penalty shoot-out in which Englands No2 goalkeeper, Nick Brothers, kept out three goal attempts. Earlier, Reading had knocked out English rivals East Grinstead 5-3 while English champions Beeston rst beat Russians Dinamo Kazan 2-0 but lost a 4-3 nail-biter to HGC.

HUDDERSFIELD 52 SALFORD 22
fell behind after a try from back rower Adam Sidlow, goaled by Daniel Holdsworth. A close-range score from Luke ODonnell after excellent work by Brough, who added the extras, got the Giants back on terms, before Scott Grix and David Hodgson made a hash of defusing a Holdsworth bomb and Mark Henry touched down. Holdsworths goal made it 12-6 only for Brough to open up the Reds defence for Shaun Lunt to score from acting half-back. Broughs conversion made it all square again and Browns long pass put Hodgson away on the left before his inside pass gave Jamie Cording his rst try for the club, which was also goaled by Brough. Jermaine McGillvary plucked a Brough kick out of the air to give Grix the opportunity to send Dale Ferguson over. But the Reds stuck to it and Henry picked up his second try from Holdsworths sublime kick before the break. Ferguson picked up his second score of the night ve minutes after the restart to set the Giants rolling again, before Lunt and Darrell Grifn took the game out of Salfords reach and captain Kevin Browns try was goaled by

RONNIE OSullivans father is following his sons bid for a fourth world title from home, despite being released from prison last November. The Rocket is back on song at the Betfred. com world championship after a poor run of results and threats to quit the event and even the sport altogether. But so far he is not being followed in person in Shefeld by his dad, freed after serving 18 years for murder. OSullivan Senior, who may yet reconsider should Ronnie reach the nal, has watched his sons three world title triumphs on television. The change in family circumstances has not always been easy for snookers biggest star to cope with and the pact has been reached to help him focus.

It is a hard one. It is on your mind all the time. There are so many highs and lows. After the win at Newcastle we were massively high and when we beat Exeter we thought we were on a run, but we havent been able to back it up. We got kicked low last week by Wasps and we took another shot against Quins. Its perhaps a good thing we have a week off. We have to try to regroup. The Premierships yo-yo club have leaked 12 tries in their past two games and travel to Heineken Cup semi-nalists Northampton in their nal match, knowing they have to salvage something out of the game to have any chance of avoiding a third relegation in six years. Exactly what will be dictated by Newcastles two remaining Premiership games against Bath. But Thompson could miss out on the match against his former club after being forced off at half-time against Quins having aggravated a knee injury. Hopefully Ill be all right for two weeks time, he said.

The dysfunctional duo will be told that if there is any repeat of the controversy which has surrounded them over the past fortnight, their international careers will be over. But Gatland is understood to be sympathetic to giving Henson and Powell one last chance to prove they can conduct themselves in a manner that is expected of an international sportsman. That may mean he includes them in the Wales squad to face the Barbarians on June 4, despite their problems at their respective clubs. In a statement last night, the WRU said: Following recent reported incidents, group chief executive Roger Lewis and Wales head coach Warren Gatland have requested meetings with Gavin Henson and Andy Powell over the course of the coming weeks. Until those meetings take place there will be no further comment from the WRU. Henson will discover in the next 48 hours whether he has a future with Toulon after a disciplinary hearing with owner Mourad Boudjellal yesterday. This followed his suspension for ghting with team-mates in a Hyeres restaurant 11 days ago. Although Toulon refused to comment on the outcome were not saying anything, said general manager Tom Whitford reports in France suggest he is on his way out less than three months after arriving from Saracens. Powells future at Wasps is also in the balance after his involvement in a pub ght with QPR football supporters. Having worked his way back into the Wales squad after being thrown out for drink-driving along the hard shoulder of the M4 in a golf buggy, he is currently suspended by the club pending a hearing. While Powell had been playing regular rugby up to that point, Henson will only have played six matches this season since his comeback if he does not play for Toulon again. His selection for Wales in these circumstances would represent a huge gamble by Gatland. It would represent to many a spectacular case of misguided loyalty. The latest incident, after his four-match stay at Saracens, should serve as a signpost with ashing lights and klaxons
conduct on a train from London to Cardiff following allegations of drunken behaviour. The charges were later dropped due to insufcient evidence, but 19 months later he was given a police caution and warned by the WRU after drunken excesses on a night out in the Welsh capital with three Wales team-mates. Then came the are-up with Toulon team-mate Matt Henjak at what was supposed to be a celebration. Henson, whose attitude had been described as difcult by Boudjellal, is not the rst player to have allowed a beery dispute with team-mates to escalate into physical violence. But he is certainly in a league of his own when it comes to shooting himself in the foot. Now,
any potential employers postToulon may be very thin on the ground. But there always seems to be someone ready to buy a ticket for the Henson lottery. Wasps, who conrmed yesterday they are releasing French legend Serge Betsen, were interested last time centre Henson became available and they will have a mideld vacancy with Ben Jacobs heading for Japan. Wasps coach Shaun Edwards, Gatlands assistant with Wales, is a fan, but any decision would ultimately be taken by the successor to interim director of rugby Leon Holden, who will depart for the Far East at the end of the season. BATH have signed Hurricanes and Samoa prop Anthony Perenise, who will join the club on a three-year contract after the World Cup.

ANDREW ELLIOTT has to hand it to the wheelchair athletes aiming for basketball gold at London 2012
THE players told me that if you dont have big blisters on your hands by the time youre nished, then I am not doing my job properly.
That was the welcome I received from Great Britains wheelchair basketball coach, Murray Treseder, as I received a taster of the training his team go through as they look ahead to the BT Paralympic World Cup in Manchester next month and the bigger goal of London 2012. One hour later, it was mission accomplished, as I shakily emerged from my wheelchair dripping with sweat, hands caked in dirt and one beauty of a blister. My training taskmasters were Great Britain trio Simon Munn, Abdi Jama and Gaz Choudhry. Munn, 43, a veteran of ve Paralympics described as a rogue elephant by Treseder lost a leg 22 years ago when he took a shortcut across a rail track, trapped his foot in the points and had it taken off by a train. Jama, 27, who has, yes, 32 siblings, fell out of a window when he was 14, broke his spine and was paralysed from just below the chest down. Choudhry, 25, suffered childhood cancer and had to have his leg amputated at 12. There is not a smidgeon of self-pity from any of them. And certainly none was shown to me as they vowed to give me a noholds-barred training session. They often train for up to seven and a half hours a day and Munn soon had me going as fast as I could before stopping, turning, changing direction, going backwards, with only ve seconds rest between each drill. Next came the suicides shuttle runs and by the end of two of those I was sweating bullets, but managed to raise a cheer from the squad when they saw my hand was bleeding. Treseder, a straight-talking, amiable Australian, said the players could do a suicide run in 45 seconds, adding that they would need a sundial rather than a stopwatch for me. I also had to hold a basketball above my head and bounce it against a wall for as long as possible. I lasted 90 seconds. The womens team manage seven minutes, Treseder said, which made me a big girls blouse. Shooting practice was easier except that the 1 ne for air shots will leave me writing an IOU for about 100 to GB wheelchair basketball. The

WESTWOOD: Angry
74
AFTER endless false dawns, striker Edin Dzeko spoke of new beginnings at Ewood Park on Monday night. The sentiment applied as much to Manchester City as to himself.
Bosnian striker Dzekos rst Premier League goal in the slender victory over relegation-haunted Blackburn may have lifted the pressure from his broad shoulders following the barren run he has endured since signing from Wolfsburg for 27million in January. Yet the value of his priceless late strike went beyond boosting his condence and could come to be regarded as a dening moment in Citys recent history, after propelling Roberto Mancinis side closer to the Champions League. Dzeko was recruited by M a n c i n i ahead of a batch of interested parties to make a difference and, despite a low-key start to life in England, he appears to have done just that. It was my rst goal and a very important one for the team, so Im very happy, said Dzeko, who has ended a drought that lasted 573 minutes after he steering a shot past goalkeeper Paul Robinson. The worst is now behind me and this game is a new beginning for me at City. The four-point cushion City have over Tottenham as they endeavour to hang on to fourth place is crucial, with Spurs due to play at Eastlands on May 10. It was in the corresponding xture at roughly the same stage of the season last year that Spurs landed a knockout punch to leave their rivals sprawled out on the canvas and condemn Mancini to a season in the glare of an unrelenting spotlight. Dzeko has since joined him there, but both can

begin to look forward to a brighter future. The rst goal is always very important. OK, I scored in the FA Cup and the Europa League, but when you keep reading about how I hadnt scored in the Premier League, the pressure starts to build, said Dzeko. But now it has come and thats important. Im ready to work h a r d and I
WorldMags
promise the fans they will see a lot of goals from me in the future. I have to say thank you to them too. I heard them chanting my name, it was an amazing feeling and that goal was for them. It has been tough at times over the last three months. Sometimes you score every game, sometimes not. But never have I doubted myself because I know what I am capable of. I just need to work hard and I know everything will come back for me. I started slowly when I was in the Bundesliga so this is nothing new for me. The new season will be the time for me. Dzeko is philosophical that for the remainder of this campaign he may have to accept a cameo role as City pursue the twin goals that will go a long way to changing the perception of the club. Carlos Tevez is ghting to recover from a hamstring injury in time for the end of the season and in particular the FA Cup nal with Stoke on May 14, while Mancinis faith in Mario Balotelli remains intact. It would be nice to get a regular start now, but in the last six games the important thing is that the team get the points they need and also win the nal, he said. Then maybe next season it will be a big chance for me to play more and score more goals. Up in the stands at Ewood Park, performing his duties as a radio pundit, was former England manager Steve McClaren, who managed Dzeko at Wolfsburg before his departure to City. McClaren spoke to the player before a buoyant City squad bounded on to the team bus and retains no doubts that he will prove his worth. I know that when he came to the Bundesliga in his rst season he was in and out of the team and never scored many goals, said McClaren. It took him a year to adapt. The second year? He got 28 goals. The next was 25. Now he has come to City and it is a dressing room that is full of big characters. Edin has just got to nd his niche. ***/lmx

ROBERTO MANCINI turned up last night to watch Stoke City ahead of their FA Cup nal.
The good news for Manchester City boss Mancini is that Matthew Etherington is likely to be missing because of injury. The bad news is that Stoke look confident of pulling off a major Wembley shock. Wolves were demolished by a Stoke performance as good as the FA Cup semi-final thrashing of Bolton. Kenwyne Jones, with his fourth goal in four games, Ryan Shawcross and the immensely impressive Jermaine Pennant had won the game and virtually secured Stokes place in the Premier League by the 51st minute. Mancini and his assistant David Platt left the Britannia Stadium shortly after that lasting about as long as the stunned Bolton fans before they walked out of Wembley and they will know they have a real battle on their hands. Wolves needed only a draw from this game in hand to climb out of the bottom three, but they never looked like achieving that target and were thrashed by Stoke. It is four games without a win for Wolves now, a slump that will be continued if they play as poorly as this at Birmingham on Sunday and Championship football is beckoning. It will be a relief to the rest of those fighting for survival that Wolves have hit this dip at a critical time, but Mancini has pressure of another sort. He has either to qualify for the Champions League or win the FA Cup. Or both. Otherwise his job will be in danger. What Mancini saw was a Tony Pulis team at the peak of their power and strength. They are free of looking over their shoulder at the relegation fight now and manager Pulis will be able to rest those key players who will be the biggest danger to Manchester City. The possible absence of Etherington is a big problem. Pulis is already without Ricardo Fuller (Achilles tendon), plus Danny Higginbotham, so selection options are becoming limited. But Etherington is vital to Stokes game plan. He pulled up in the 28th minute as he set off on a run down the left wing and looked in agony as he was carried out of the game with hamstring trouble. Its a huge disappointment to us, said Pulis. We wont

HIGH FLYER: Kenwyne Jones rises above the Wolves defence to head Stoke into the lead at the Britannia Stadium last night
know the extent of the injury until tomorrow when he has a scan. But we will do our best to make sure he has a chance. Etherington has 17 days before the final. The first week will be very important and then at least Etherington has 10 days to get the hamstring as strong as possible to play in the final. Rory Delap moved out on to the wing in place of him, but Etherington and Pennant are huge weapons in Stokes football, more vital than Delaps much-hyped long throws. Both Pennant, substituted in the 71st minute, and Etherington, as he was carried down the tunnel, went off to a standing ovation. But it is likely only Pennant will be available to step back on to the big stage. Pennant attracted two defenders towards him in the 16th minute before crossing a ball that climbed over Wolves defender Jody Craddocks head. Jones connected powerfully and headed strongly past Wolves goalkeeper Wayne Hennessey, who got a hand to the ball but could not stop Jones 11th goal of the season. The confidence Stoke took to Wembley was with them again, dealing with Wolves and battering them. Pulis described Stokes first-half football as the best they have played as a Premier League club. They would not be denied and, via Pennants corner from an excellent Hennessey save, Glenn Whelan drove in a shot that Shawcross deflected into the net from five yards. Every time Stoke attacked they looked dangerous and Jones charged at Wolves in the 51st minute. He switched the ball out right to Walters and Pennant met his long cross to crack a shot that went in off Craddock for the third goal. Wolves manager Mick McCarthy could praise only Hennessey in his team. Hennessey played well but I will stop there, said an angry McCarthy. That was as poor as we have played. Playing for Premier League survival should be enough to motivate these players. How weve gone from the Villa performance [a 1-0 away win] to this in four games, I just dont know. We will have to play better in the next four games. I will be looking for a Mick McCarthy performance from my team. I didnt get that tonight.

GERARD Houllier will know in a month whether he will be able to continue in football. It is planned for Houllier to leave hospital in three to four days after his latest heart scare and he will not manage Aston Villa again this season.

Villa club doctor Mark Waller said: All the tests have conrmed his heart is working perfectly. Were extremely encouraged by Gerards improvement in the past six days. Houllier wants to continue at Villa and picked the team which drew with Stoke on Saturday and has texted training routines while

THE rivalry between Real Madrid and Barcelona is intense. It is rooted in the ancient enmity between their home cities.
Now, as well as political, geographical, historical and football reasons for mutual hostility, there is another factor a special one. Or rather, The Special One: Jose Mario dos Santos Felix Mourinho. If ever proof were needed that the provocative Portuguese antagonises opponents, it was provided by an utterly unprecedented build-up to tonights Champions League semifinal, first leg at the Bernabeu. And if evidence were required that Mourinhos mind games work, it was produced when Pep Guardiola showed the worlds media the state of his mind. Barcelona coach Guardiola is normally calm and collected. Yet the rage he felt at remarks made by Mourinho reduced him to a prolonged rant which was often barely coherent. But to give the full picture of an extraordinary day, we have to begin with Mourinho and the master class he gave as he held court in the late afternoon at Reals sprawling training complex near Madrids international airport. Mourinho took and answered questions in Spanish, Portuguese, Italian and English. He also used irony effortlessly and reeled off barbed remarks without ever faltering in his

FROM BACK PAGE play football as best as we can. In this room [the media centre] he is the f***ing leader, the f***ing boss. The person that knows everything about the world and I do not want to compete with him at all. Guardiolas outburst was a riposte to provocative remarks made when Mourinho held court to the media earlier in the day. Mourinho claimed Barcelona would target the four Real Madrid players on yellow cards. Cristiano Ronaldo, Sergio Ramos, Angel Di Maria and Raul Albiol are each one caution away from suspension. Any of them booked tonight will be banned for next weeks second leg and Mourinho said: We know the opposition will use that situation. He also mocked comments made by Guardiola after losing to Real in last weeks Spanish Cup nal. And Guardiola took the bait. He suggested that Mourinho gets Real staff to conduct research to help him come up with his soundbites. He said: I can give you an immense list of things that have happened but I do not have that many people working for me and people writing stuff. He was asked: In all your years, have you ever known a Real Madrid team as aggressive as this one? He gave a one-word answer: No. And he nished his diatribe by saying: I dont know what camera was aimed for Jose, but thats for you. So Mourinho has succeeded in injecting even more animosity into the ancient rivalry between Spains two most successful clubs. He has won the Champions League with Porto and Inter Milan, but nobody has ever coached three different clubs to victory in Europes top competition. Barcelona are eight points clear at the top of La Liga and widely regarded as the best club side in the world perhaps of all time and yet Guardiola has let Mourinho wind him up.

THE smart money in Germany is on Manuel Neuer joining Bayern Munich this summer but he showed last night why Manchester United should break the bank to buy him.
The man regarded as the worlds best goalkeeper single-handedly prevented United from running up an embarrassing Champions League scoreline in the Veltins-Arena. Neuer made eight outstanding saves to keep Schalke in a one-sided semi-nal rst leg before United nally broke his impressive resistance with two goals in two minutes from Ryan Giggs and Wayne Rooney midway through the second half. With a cushion for next weeks second leg at Old Trafford, United can surely start contemplating a third nal in four seasons against either Real Madrid or Barcelona at

Wembley on May 28. But before then Sir Alex Ferguson will no doubt be stepping up his efforts to keep Neuer out of Bayerns grasp describing his performance as the nest by an opposition goalkeeper in his quarter of a century at Old Trafford which earned him a handshake from the boss at the end of the match. Neuer looks as imposing, assured and acrobatic as United legend Peter Schmeichel and the ideal replacement for the retiring Edwin Van der Sar,
who spent most of the game watching in admiration as United dominated. Neuer has conrmed he is leaving this summer but has yet to name the club he is joining, although Bayern are rumoured to have agreed an 18million deal. But United have the funds to gazump Bayern. It took them over an hour to break Neuers one-man resistance but when they did they scored twice in quick succession, with Rooney underlining Fergusons pre-match call for him to show the world he is back to his best by making the rst and scoring the second. Rooney was sent off in the 2006 World Cup for stamping on Ricardo Carvalho the last time he played in this stadium. The twisted ankle that plunged him into months of turmoil last year also happened on German soil. But Rooney banished those demons in some style last night,
controlling the tempo of the game in his favoured position behind Javier Hernandez, whose pace stretched Schalke to breaking point. Ironically, Uniteds goals came just as Schalke had come briey into the game as an attacking force for the rst time. Rooney slipped a great ball through the defence for Giggs to slide a shot past Neuer in the 67th minute. Two minutes later Rooney scored a similar goal, striking a low shot home after a pass from Hernandez had opened up Schalkes slow and vulnerable defence. The goals put a far fairer reection of Uniteds impressive superiority on the scoreline. And it will take a miracle collapse by the Premier League champions-elect for Schalke to pull this round at Old Trafford on Wednesday. Despite their stunning 7-3 quarternal aggregate victory over holders ***

Inter Milan, Schalke looked the mid-table Bundesliga team they are. But nothing should detract from an assured and composed United performance. An impressive 65 per cent possession rate indicates how much they bossed this game. And it should not come as a surprise. They have lost only once on their last 23 away games in Europe and they are the rst side not to concede an away goal on their way to the nal providing they nish the job off next week. It was a signicant night for Van der Sar as he set a new Champions League record this was his seventh appearance in the semi-nals of the competition, and his 13th leg. He made a comfortable save from Alexander Baumjohanns shot in the rst minute but it was the man whom many believe should replace him at Old Trafford next season who stole the limelight, as United cut through
red tide
Schalkes defence almost at will. He set the tone with a nger-tip save from Rooneys curling effort in the second minute and then denied Ji-Sung Park before a string of saves to frustrate Hernandez. Virtually every United player tried to get in on the act. Giggs had a header saved while Fabio Da Silva sent a shot over the bar. And on half-time Neuer came to Schalkes rescue again, denying Giggs as he burst through with a save reminiscent of Schmeichel at his best. The second half continued in the same way. Neuer tipped over Patrice Evras header from a free-kick by Giggs, who was then guilty of a bad miss. When Valencias cross reached him, he sent two defenders the wrong way but sent a disappointing shot wide of the far post with his weaker right foot. Schalke had to be encouraged that they were still in the game after so many United chances
and they threatened for the rst time when Edu scuffed a shot wide and Van der Sar saved from the same players long-range effort. But United nally found a way past Neuer with Giggs, at 37, becoming the oldest scorer in the Champions League, courtesy of Rooneys pass. Two minutes later Rooney netted his 14th of the season and United can think about whether they want a reunion with Cristiano Ronaldo on May 28 or a chance to get revenge on Barca for their defeat in the 2009 nal. On this sort of performance, Spains nest should be worried.
