The Civil Aviation Authority has today launched legal action against Ryanair after the low-cost airline refused to pay compensation to passengers for flight disruptions. Some 100,000 passengers were affected after a series of flights were cancelled or delayed over the summer when cabin crew and pilots went on strike. The CAA found the strikes were not "extraordinary circumstances" and therefore the airline was not exempt from compensation rules - despite Ryanair's claims they were. The watchdog has now said thousands passengers are entitled to some kind of compensation under EU law. But their claims have been rejected by the airline and Ryanair will now face legal action in court. The CAA said: "The UK Civil Aviation Authority has today started enforcement action against Ryanair, following the airline's decision that financial compensation is not payable under European Commission Regulation 261/2004 for flight disruption resulting from industrial action by the airline's … [Read more...] about Ryanair to go to court as Civil Aviation Authority launches legal action over compensation claims

ODEON has been blasted for flogging film tickets at a flagship cinema for more than £40 each. The cinema in Leicester Square which has been recently refurbished is expected to open to later this month.

THE furore over disgraced Labour MP Kate Osamor deepened after her controversial mother was sworn in as a new member of the House of Lords last night. Martha Osamor became Baroness of Tottenham as she took her seat in the upper chamber yesterday. Jeremy Corbyn’s decision to hand her the life peerage sparked outrage because of her role supporting Labour activists suspended over anti-Semitism. Jewish groups said it was a “two-fingered salute” to their community. Lady Osamor is a veteran civil rights campaigner who signed a letter protesting the Labour party’s decision to kick out Ken Livingstone, who was suspended over claims that Hitler supported Zionism in the 1930s. Mr Livingstone subsequently resigned from Labour, saying the issues around his suspension had become a distraction.
