Machete gang banned from making violent drill music film ‘shotgun and Rambo knife’ video – with full police approval
NOTORIOUS drill gangsters jailed for plotting a machete attack on rivals have made a violent rap video just weeks after their release - with full police approval. Thugs from the 1011 gang posted the shocking video on YouTube where it shows them revelling in stabbings and firearms despite being BANNED from doing so and Britain's top cop having slammed the genre for "glorifying" violence. Rhys Herbert and Jordan Bedeau, 17, who now appear with a group called CGM, were both released weeks ago after being jailed in June this year for their part in a plot to attack rivals with machetes and baseball bats in West London. When convicted the mob were handed an order banning them from making any music videos which glorified or incited violence. The order also meant they had to seek approval from cops before filming any music video. But Sun Online has discovered that the duo are now out of jail and made a new music video referencing stabbings and shootings which the Met Police approved and … [Read more...] about Machete gang banned from making violent drill music film ‘shotgun and Rambo knife’ video – with full police approval
We should stop praying silence from Charles and start supporting him for his dedication
WE live in a time when a “portfolio career” is the norm and many of us expect to chop and change a fair bit before finding the right job. But close your eyes and imagine, for a moment, knowing from childhood exactly what job you are going to do — because you have no choice about whether or not you actually want to do it. And imagine, then, having to wait for that job to start until you are the age when most people are hanging up their work boots and starting to claim a pension. It’s impossible, right? But the Prince of Wales — the man who was born to be king — has known since the age of four that he would one day have to step into his mother’s shoes. And what a mother. They say no one is irreplaceable but I think she is — which must be such a lot of pressure for him. In short, he has spent his entire life waiting for his mum to die before he can start his dream job. And in the meantime his life, in some ways, is on hold. He was not … [Read more...] about We should stop praying silence from Charles and start supporting him for his dedication
33 places to cosy up with a mouth-watering Sunday roast in London
Who can resist the lure of a Sunday roast piled high with all your favourite veggies, a giant Yorkshire pud, perfect spuds made fluffy on the inside and crispy on the outside and lashings of graving. It's just the thing to go with a day spent lazing around with the Sunday papers, some quality time with the family and maybe the cure for last nights over-indulgence. Trouble is, it can take ages to prepare and cook - who wants to be peeling all those potatoes with a hangover or when you can be playing with the kids? Then there is all the washing up - even with a dishwasher it leaves a lot of mess. And it certainly isn't fair to be calling round to mum's every time you fancy a roast (even though she and Gran do it the best). So why not give yourself - and mum - a break and go out for a Sunday roast. In London there is no end of places where you can get a tuck into this great British tradition and that includes cosy pubs and gorgeous restaurants. Maybe you want to eat somewhere local to … [Read more...] about 33 places to cosy up with a mouth-watering Sunday roast in London
