End Demo, Says May
The Home Secretary Theresa May has said the protesters camping outside St Paul's Cathedral should leave and said St Paul's was an important site for the image of the UK. The activists, who have been at the site since 15 October, are protesting against inequality and corporate greed. Speaking on a BBC programme on Thursday night, Mrs May said: "Personally, yes, I would like to see them go."
Scottish Tory Leader
The Scottish Conservative Party will name its new leader later when it announces the result of a vote. More than 8,000 Scottish party members have spent the last few weeks voting for one of four candidates, by post. One of the front runners is current deputy leader Murdo Fraser, who wants to abolish the Scottish Conservatives in favour of a new centre-right party. MSPs Jackson Carlaw, Ruth Davidson and Margaret Mitchell are also in the running to replace Annabel Goldie.
Mother Pays Tribute To Murdered Daughter
The mother of a 28-year-old woman who was suffocated by her husband in Greater Manchester has paid tribute to her "beautiful" daughter. Pornpilai Nehls, who had a two-year-old daughter, was killed at her home in Maple Crescent, Leigh on 26 April. Her husband Rickie La-Touche, also known as Rickie Nehls, was found guilty of her murder at Preston Crown Court on Wednesday. He was jailed for life and ordered to serve a minimum of 12 years in prison. Ms Nehls's mother, Tui Srisoi, said: "Although small in stature she had a big heart and brought happiness to her friends and family. "She was also a talented artist and a loving mother to her daughter, aged only two years. She will be sorely missed."
Three Hospitalised After Mine Collapse
Two men have been taken to hospital and another treated for shock after a collapse at a mine. It took an hour to rescue the men from the Aberpergwm colliery near Glynneath, Neath Port Talbot, using an underground lift system. A trench is believed to have collapsed at around 03:06 GMT, three to four miles underground. One man suffered back injuries.
