Three people are believed to have been stabbed to death in a hotel stairwell in Glasgow city centre.

Armed police shot the suspect, who is also understood to have died.

The Scottish Police Federation have confirmed a police officer was stabbed. Armed police remain at the scene outside the Park Inn in West George Street, it is understood that the Park Inn Hotel is currently being used to house asylum seekers.

A statement from Police Scotland said the situation was "contained" and there was no danger to the general public.

Tourists returning from Spain will now have to isolate for 14 days on their return back to the UK.     It was always a possibility and people must have known that before going there on holiday

I was driving through Deganwy about two hours ago and the traffic coming from Junction seemed particularly heavy but when I came to the bottom of Ffon Tom Hill I could see the reason for it
There were Police cars and fire engines at the scene and I suspect that there had been a fire at the Chip Shop at the bottom of the hill.    I could see no evidence of any fire there but it's just a guess on my part

Public access to computers has resumed at Conwy county libraries after being halted during the coronavirus lockdown.

Conwy County Borough Council said its library members at Abergele, Colwyn Bay, Conwy, Llandudno and Llanrwst must pre-book before arrival as there is limited access to computers to ensure a safe environment.

The free call and collect service is also in action at the county's libraries, in which books can be ordered online or by phone. Library staff will then get in contact to arrange a time to collect the books from the library entrance.    ref Pioneer

“Mr Trump said he had found it difficult to socially distance, they come over to you and they want to hug you and they want to kiss you because we really have done a good job for them and you get close and things happen.”

He said that as he was trying to divert attention from one of his top aides, Ms Hicks, who serves as a counsellor to the president,  had contracted the virus. What an utterly despicable man he is attempting to blame members of his Arm Forces for infecting him. He truely is the lowest of the low and the sooner we are rid of him the better.
top aides, had contracted the virus.
