GET CARTA Man arrested after trying to ‘steal the Magna Carta from Salisbury Cathedral by smashing case with a hammer’

A MAN has been arrested after allegedly trying to smash the case holding the Magna Carta with a hammer in a bid to steal it. The suspect, 45, was arrested at Salisbury Cathedral yesterday afternoon, with the building having to be evacuated while police responded. Officers arrested the man on suspicion of attempted theft, possession of an offensive weapon and criminal damage. Locals claim that have-a-go heroes spotted the danger and intervened. One witness said: "We were walking past the cathedral as the alarms started, and everyone was starting to come out. "As we got to the stonemason's gateway we heard some shouting and could see a few people coming out of the gates so we stopped. "It looked like some men ‘play-fighting’ but as they got through the gates I saw a hammer drop to the floor and one of the men kicked it into the road whilst another man held on to him. "They then held onto him with hands behind his back whilst they picked up the...

A bed firm boss who designed a cot in which a seven-month-old baby "choked to death" has been jailed for three years and four months.

Zakynthos earthquake: Greek island shaken by 6.4 tremor

A powerful 6.4-magnitude earthquake south of the island of Zakynthos has been felt across western Greece. Nobody was injured by the tremor, which struck at 01:54 on Friday (22:54 GMT), but there was significant damage to the local port and a 13th Century island monastery south of Zakynthos. A series of aftershocks were felt in the hours after the quake and local schools were shut for the day. The quake struck 50km (30 miles) south-west of Zakynthos, in the Ionian Sea. Hundreds of residents spent much of the night outside in the streets as further powerful shocks were felt. "Everything was visibly shaking up and down. The table, wardrobe and beds were all bouncing," said British holidaymaker Joanna Jones from Liverpool who was staying with her family at a hotel in Alykanas, in the north of the island. "It felt like it lasted five minutes but realistically it was only 10 seconds. The pool was swaying all over the place and the shelves have all come down in the...

Brexit: French officials dismiss UK fears of Calais 'go-slow'

French officials have rejected suggestions they could resort to a "go-slow" policy at the port of Calais if there is no Brexit deal. The UK's Brexit Secretary Dominic Raab warned on Thursday of major disruption in a "worse case scenario", which might force firms to use other ports. But Xavier Bertrand, president of the Hauts-de-France region, said ensuring "fluidity" of trade was essential. Another official said closing Calais would be an "economic suicide mission". There has been widespread concern about the impact of longer border checks at Calais if the UK leaves the EU on 29 March 2019 without a deal. Transport Secretary Chris Grayling met the mayor of Calais, Natacha Bouchart, on Thursday to discuss French and British preparations for such an eventuality amid claims that businesses may be forced to use Dutch and Belgian ports instead to transport goods. Brexit and the booming British strawberry UK 'will pay the price...

'Justin Bieber's burrito' and other foods eaten 'wrong'

A picture of a burrito has gone viral. Yes, you read correctly. A burrito. And for good reason. The image is of a man eating a burrito in what is quite possibly the least conventional way to eat a rice-filled Mexican wrap. And no doubt adding to the confusion is one big question: is that Justin Bieber? The stranger in question looks scarily like the singer, but has his face somewhat hidden. Whether it's Bieber or not is a debate lots of people are having. But what there's less argument about is this alternative way to eat a burrito. People compared the mystery man's technique to that of an instrument. Skip Twitter post by @broazay View image on Twitter

Ryanair racism: Flight rant man says he is 'not a racist'
