COST OF LIVING CRISIS

Liz Truss 'blocks nanny state info campaign that would tell people to turn off their radiators' - amid anger at plans to pay people £10 a day to switch off at peak times in attempt to avoid blackouts   

Business Secretary Jacob Rees-Mogg signed off a £15million public information campaign that would encourage people to take simple measures like turning off radiators in empty rooms and switching the heating off when they go out. Allies of the Business secretary said the campaign would have been 'light touch' but it has been stamped on by Liz Truss's No10 operation for being too interventionist and replicating information available elsewhere. When asked if people should be using less energy, Climate Minister Graham Stuart told Sky News: 'We are not sending that out as a message.' But a source told the Times: 'It's a stupid decision. The campaign was entirely practical, it was about saving people money. It wasn't about lecturing them.' It came amid a backlash against National Grid plans to offer households £10 a day to cut electric usage at peak times in a bid to avoid winter blackouts. The deal relies on smart meters, which are unreliable and have been installed in around only half of homes and small businesses. It means tens of millions of people will miss out.

Furious woman 'locks in' DPD driver for 'refusing to hand over her parcel' - before he builds a makeshift ramp with wheelie bins to escape over security fence

In a video shared on TikTok, the driver can be seen climbing a wheelie bin during his attempts to escape a driveway. He then approaches a woman filming him, before climbing over an electric gate to return to his van. During the video, the woman behind the camera says: 'I'm never going to get my phone...you're not going to let me see the phone no?' She then appears to reach to take the parcel out of his pocket as he scales the electric gate.

ALISON BOSHOFF: Did Mick Jagger have flings with two members of the Rolling Stones?

ALISON BOSHOFF: A new book suggests that Rolling Stone Mick Jagger is not just a legendary ladies' man. He's also dallied with more men than is popularly realised ...allegedly including TWO members of his own band - including Keith Richards, pictured left. Respected author Lesley-Ann Jones says in her new book The Stone Age that it is time to re-assess Jagger as a 'bisexual icon', suggesting he had flings with Keith Richards in the group's early days; as well as guitarist Mick Taylor, pictured wearing a white jacket, who was in the Stones from 1969 to 1974.

'The wild lad died the day Prince Harry met Meghan Markle': Bombshell new book claims 'dashing' Duke of Sussex was turning into a 'seedy old roué' before he began dating ex-Suits actress

The Duke of Sussex, 38, was also 'quite a wild lad' and had a reputation as a party prince following a decade in the military, according to new book Courtiers: The Hidden Power Behind the Crown. It includes the prince allegedly playing air guitar with naked with a pool cue at the Encore at Wynn Las Vegas hotel in August 2012. But the book says Harry has now left that life firmly behind and is enjoying life in California with Meghan and their two young children Archie, three, and Lilibet, who was born in June last year. The author Valentine Low says: 'The younger prince was a dashing figure, flying an Apache helicopter, and was heavily committed in the area of children's health, with charities like Well Child. But he also used to be quite a wild lad.

Posting on their official social media pages this evening after their visit, the Prince and Princess of Wales wrote: 'Thank you for having us, Northern Ireland!' (left inset and right). Their message came hours after Kate was confronted by a woman during a walkabout, who told her that 'Ireland belongs to the Irish' during the meet and greet in north Belfast this afternoon (main).

The girl who SLEPT through the Thai nursery massacre: Three-year-old had blanket over her head while gunman killed 37 teachers and pupils - as first photos of victims including twin brothers emerge

Nong Am (pictured left) was in the nap room with other children when former policeman Panya Khamrab (top-right inset), 34, burst in firing a gun killing at least 37 teachers and pupils on Thursday afternoon in an attack that has shocked the world. Miraculously, the youngster remained in a deep sleep with the blanket pulled up over her head. While the other youngsters panicked - and were slayed by the attacker - he appeared not to notice the sleeping girl and she emerged unscathed following the carnage. Her story emerged as pictures of the innocent victims of Khamrab's rampage began to be released, including a heartbreaking image of two murdered twins (bottom-right) and an eight-months-pregnant teacher (top-right). Weerapat and Weeraphon Nuatkao, both three years old, and teacher Supaporn Pramongmuk were all among those killed in the massacre.

How hard-up middle class shoppers feeling the pinch are snapping up blankets and one-pot stoves to save on energy costs this winter

Hard-up middle-class shoppers are buying heated throws, air fryers and one-pot cookers to avoid soaring energy bills.

Cabinet Office minister Nadhim Zahawi APOLOGISES to the public for economic turmoil caused by Liz Truss' mini-budget mayhem during heated Question Time debate

Cabinet Office minister Nadhim Zahawi (pictured) apologised to the public for the economic turmoil caused by Liz Truss's mini-budget during a heated Question Time debate. Mr Zahawi, 55, was forced to make the apology on the BBC programme on Thursday night after clashing with Talk TV presenter Piers Morgan. The exchange began after Mr Morgan said that Prime Minister Liz Truss had 'tanked' the economy with her mini budget and argued that a 'great person' would concede that they had made a mistake and let someone else take over. He then asked Mr Zahawi if he would say sorry to the country for the economic turmoil that followed. Mr Zahawi, seemingly reluctant, argued that Russian President Vladimir Putin - who reduced gas supply to Europe, fuelling the ongoing energy crisis - would want the UK to be divided. The audience erupted with laughter prompting Mr Morgan to ask again if he was sorry, causing the former Chancellor to say 'of course' he was.

Huge mob of birdwatchers is blasted for chasing rare migratory warbler out of a bush so 50 of them could take pictures of it 

Birdwatchers have been blasted for chasing a rare migratory warbler out of a bush so that 50 of them could take pictures of it. RSPB Scotland said that the animal's welfare should 'always come first' after three people were seen circling a bush housing the small bird. Around 50 people could be seen standing on the side of the road trying to take pictures of the creature.

Is this the REAL reason behind the Danish royal feud? Prince Joachim was 'deeply in love' with his sister-in-law Crown Princess Mary and even tried to kiss her in a 'drunken moment' at a gala, Spanish magazine claims

It's been a dramatic week for the Danish Royal Family - after Queen Margarethe II of Denmark announced last week that she would be removing princely titles from four of her grandchildren. The decision saw a bitter royal row breakout, with her youngest son Prince Joachim claiming his children, Prince Nikolai, 23, Prince Felix, 20, Prince Henrik, 13, and Princess Athena, 10, were upset after having their 'identities removed'. As of January 1 2023, they will become Counts and Countesses, and will be known as Their Excellencies, rather than His or Her Royal Highness. Amid the scandal, Joachim, 53, and his second wife Princess Marie, 46, admitted their relationship with his older brother Crown Prince Frederik, 54, and his sister-in-law Crown Princess Mary (pictured all together, right, in 2019), 50, is 'complicated'. And now, one Spanish magazine has claimed the real reason behind the rift is because Joachim 'was deeply in love with his sister-in-law Mary', according to Vanitatis Elconfidencial . A photograph was even published by magazine 'Svensk Damtidning', apparently showing Joachim trying to kiss Mary (pictured together, left, in 2022) at a gala party of the Royal Guard Regiment.

'Derek has remained very damaged': Kate Garraway reflects on her husband's difficult recovery from Covid on emotional DNA Journey

Kate Garraway reflected on her husband Derek Draper's recovery from Covid on ITV's DNA Journey on Thursday night. The Good Morning Britain presenter, 55, appeared on the show with fellow presenter Alison Hammond to retrace her ancestry but began by telling how Derek 'remains very damaged' as she spoke about her current family situation. Derek is one of the UK's longest-suffering patients of Covid after being admitted to hospital with the virus in March 2020, only returning home in April 2021, where he receives round-the-clock care.

Horrified witnesses to City of London bloodbath saw three 'have-a-go heroes' running past shops shouting 'Oi, Oi' to stop masked gang from snatching worker's phone before they were stabbed - as police scramble to track down attackers

Horrified witnesses to a multiple stabbing incident in central London on Thursday have recalled the moment three 'have-a-go heroes' ran past shops shouting 'oi oi' in a brave bid to stop a masked gang from robbing an innocent worker - before the trio were mercilessly knifed by the thugs. Metropolitan Police are currently hunting at least two suspects involved in the City of London incident, which saw three people hospitalised and sparked a mass emergency response just yards from Liverpool Street Station at around 9.45am. A further person was left injured after being 'pushed to the floor' as the bloodbath unfolded in broad daylight. Footage shared online showed a scuffle on the road by the 22 Bishopsgate skyscraper with smartly dressed workers seemingly being violently shoved to the ground, before four police vehicles and four ambulance vehicles were later seen arriving at the scene. Reports from eyewitnesses suggested two thieves on electric bikes attempted to steal a worker's mobile phone before passers-by bravely got involved in an attempt to prevent it. Sayeed Dukanwala, 53, a shop owner, told the Times how he was alerted to the incident when he saw a 'man run past the shop shouting, ''Oi! Oi!''' Mr Dukanwala said: 'Two boys on a bike, I believe, tried to nick his phone. I think [the victim] was trying to get people's attention. I couldn't see the boys' faces because they wore helmets and had scarves covering their noses and mouths. I left the shop and saw four or five people fighting by the traffic lights outside the skyscraper. They tried to stop one of the men on the bike but then he pulled out a knife and started stabbing them.' Mr Dukanwala had earlier told MailOnline: 'Something happened to me last weekend, someone hit me with the bottle inside my shop. This area is very unsafe, it's very scary.'

WAR IN UKRAINE

Putin's birthday gift to Ukraine: Russia is now Kyiv's largest arms supplier with more than HALF of its tanks captured from fleeing Kremlin forces, MoD says on Vladimir's 70th birthday

Ukraine has captured more than 400 Russian tanks (top right) and 600 fighting vehicles since the war began, analysis shows, which far outstrips the number that have been donated by allies. British military intelligence revealed today that half of Ukraine's currently operating tanks may have been seized from Moscow's troops, a statement that happens to coincide with Putin's 70th birthday - which is today (top inset). Large amounts of that equipment were captured during Ukraine's wildly successful offensive in Kharkiv, in the north of the country, which also yielded huge supplies of Soviet-standard artillery shells (bottom right) - which the country needs for its Soviet-era guns and which it cannot get from NATO (left, Ukrainian troops fire a captured Russian howitzer.)

Did Tom Brady's return to sport spark downfall of a fairytale marriage? Insiders say major reason for cracks in relationship with Gisele Bundchen was decision to head back onto football field after just 40 days of retirement

TOM LEONARD: Even as U.S. President, Donald Trump was a shameless name-dropper and there were no names he loved to drop more than those of Tom and Gisele. The Tom and Gisele in question were, of course, American Football superstar Tom Brady and his Brazilian supermodel wife Gisele Bundchen (pictured left). And now America is holding its collective breath following reports that the celebrity couple are heading for the divorce courts. Neither Brady nor Bundchen have confirmed they're separating but sources close to them say they have both hired lawyers 'to explore their options' over dividing their estimated £580 million fortune and agreeing custody for their two young children (pictured right, along with Brady's other son Jack).

Notorious art thieves who stole $100M painting in 1985 - while one chatted up security guard - are revealed to be New York teachers... who are now DEAD: FBI discover valuable works of art in their home and more than $1M in their bank account

It has long been speculated that the late Rita and Jerry Alter (left) were the duo who stole De Kooning's 'Woman-Ochre' from the University of Arizona Museum of Art in 1985. The theft saw a woman chat up a guard while her male accomplice cut out the painting and ran off with it, but the thieves have never been identified. It wasn't until 2017 that police were alerted to the paintings location by a New Mexico museum curator who bought the painting for $2,000 from Rita's estate, who passed away that year following her husband's death in 2012. The painting hung in their home for more than three decades (right). A follow up investigation has since found that the former New York City teachers were in possession of other artworks, including two paintings that the FBI said would sell for six figures each.

The hidden life of Britain's most hated woman: How Maxine Carr had plastic surgery and has been moved 10 times in 18 years to keep her identity secret - amid fears new Soham murders drama could blow her cover and force taxpayers to fund moving her AGAIN

The first trailer for the new mini-series, Maxine, documenting the Soham murders through the eyes of killer Huntley's fiancée was released last week ahead of the broadcast of the first episode on Monday on Channel 5. Jemma Carlton and Line of Duty 's Scott Reid star as Maxine Carr and Ian Huntley star in the drama - but critics have decried the decision to make the show so close to the 20th anniversary of the murders of schoolgirls Holly Wells and Jessica Chapman, both aged 10 when they were killed in May 2002. Despite her part in one of the most heinous crimes in modern British history, Carr has enjoyed a new life bankrolled by the taxpayer. She is reported to have been moved to at least 10 different safe houses since her release 18 years ago after just 21 months behind bars. With the state protecting her identity, and guarding her around the clock, a dozen women are feared to have been abused or attacked by people who falsely believed they were Carr, who is now believed to be married with at least one child.

Woman who hasn't cut her nails in 22 YEARS details her struggles to zip up her trousers, pick things up, and open cans - and claims she can't use public toilets because they DON'T FIT in the stalls

Diana Armstrong, 64, from Minnesota, who has broken the world record for the longest nails, has detailed the downsides of living with her massive talons. She said she struggles with activities like zipping up pants, opening cans, and using the bathroom - since they often don't fit in the stalls of public restrooms. The record breaker last cut her nails in 1997, but when her daughter tragically died from an asthma attack at age 16, she vowed to never trim them again. The teen would manicure Diana's nails every weekend, so after her sudden loss, the grieving mother couldn't bring herself to let anyone else take care of them. Diana even decided to quit her job so she could focus on growing her fingernails. Now, her nails measure a whopping 42-feet collectively - the size of a school bus. She told Guinness that it takes between four to five hours to paint them, and uses 15-20 bottles of nail polish.
