UK to build 8 new nuclear power stations: environmentalists and locals outraged
It has been revealed that ministers have voted for the construction of eight new nuclear power stations across England, over the next 10 years.
The new facilities are to be based alongside existing plants, and will play a crucial role in Gordon Brown's plan to reduce Britain's dependency on fossil fuels. Attending last week's G8 summit in Japan, the Prime Minister spoke of the need for as many as 1,000 new nuclear power stations to be built globally over the next century.
Scotland however, which already has four nuclear plants, has blocked the possibility of any of the new stations being built north of the border. It has been revealed that ministers have voted for the construction of eight new nuclear power stations across England, over the next ... more -

Four stabbed to death on same day in London
Four men were fatally stabbed in London yesterday, a bitter highlighting of the city's apparently worsening record on knife attacks.
The victims were 19 and 40-year-olds from north London, and two men "in their 20s" from Leyton and Walthamstow, east London. Police report that six people are being held over the murders: "a man and a woman .. over the stabbing in Edmonton", and "four people ... in connection with the attack in Leyton".
Recent statistics showed that in the UK over 14,000 people were admitted to A and E with knife wounds last year, and that the group most at risk was young people in their late teens and early twenties.

Russian state killed former spy Alexander Litvinenko
The Russian state was behind the killing of the former secret agent Alexander Litvinenko, a senior official has disclosed in private.
"We very strongly believe the Litvinenko case to have had some state involvement, there are very strong indications that it was a state action," the senior security official told the BBC.
Marina Litvinenko, the widow of the murdered agent, has been pressing for official recognition that the use of radioactive polonium 210 must have been state-sanctioned.
To date the Government has remained silent on the responsibility for the killing merely requesting the extradition of Andrei Lugovoi, a former KGB bodyguard who is the main suspect in the case.
Referring to a later attempt to assassinate the businessman Boris Berezovsky, who employed Litvinenko, the security source said the "continued willingness" of the domestic security branch the FSB to "consider operations against people in the West" was causing major diplomatic problems.
His comments came as the Prime Minister held a "frank" meeting with the new Russian president, Dimitry Medvedev.
During a private meeting at the G8 summit in Japan, the Prime Minister is understood to have raised the assassination of Litvinenko in London, problems faced by oil company BP operating in Russia, and the treatment of the British Council – which has been forced to close several Russian offices.
It appeared that Britain had walked away from the talks empty-handed amid signs that the Russians may have been annoyed by Mr Brown's approach.

This is totally outrageous. The USA does NOT have jurisdiction beyond its borders, neither does it have sovereignty beyond its borders. The Bush administration must have either bribed, blackmailed or issued dire threats against Gordon Brown and the leaders of most of the European Union countries to obtain their cooperation in something which is totally illegal and against the constitutions of all those countries. I am hopping mad... This is totally outrageous. The USA does NOT have jurisdiction beyond its borders, neither does it have sovereignty beyond its borders... more
