Prompt: Raheem Sterling is at the centre of a second drugs controversy after the Liverpool forward was videoed passing out after inhaling nitrous oxide. The England international, who was also exposed on Sunday after he was caught puffing on a shisha pipe, will face at club investigation over why he was taking the legal high, which is also known as ‘hippy crack’. In the footage Sterling is seen sucking on an orange balloon then laughing and giggling before he asks one of his friends to give him another hit. Raheem Sterling has been filmed apparently inhaling nitrous oxide - also known as 'hippy crack' The video shows him smiling and breathing in gas from a balloon before apparently passing out . When the camera pans back to the 20-year-old, he is either unconscious or has fallen asleep. It is claimed that the video, obtained by The Sun,  was taken at his home in Southport in the days before a game. Nitrous oxide starves the brain of oxygen and makes users feel light-headed and dizzy. Sterling scored in last night’s 2-0 victory over Newcastle United but he also missed a chance from six yards in the 56th minute and could now face disciplinary action after his second indiscretion in the space of 24 hours. Liverpool forward Raheem Sterling can be seen pictured on social media whilst smoking a shisha pipe . Sterling scored the opening goal in Monday night’s 2-0 victory over Newcastle . Nitrous Oxide, has been nicknamed ‘laughing gas’ due to the euphoric and relaxed feeling people who inhale it can sometimes feel. The gas is normally bought in pressured canisters, commonly transferred to a container, e.g. a balloon, from which the gas is inhaled. Nitrous oxide is not illegal to possess, but this doesn’t mean that it is safe to use. The effects of nitrous oxide vary depending on how much has been inhaled but they include: . • Feelings of euphoria, relaxation and calmness. • Dizziness, difficulty in thinking straight and fits of giggles/laughter. • Sound distortions or even hallucinations. • In some people, a headache can be an unwanted immediate effect. Risks include: . • Unconsciousness or death from lack of oxygen. This occurs when the available oxygen for breathing is effectively pushed out by the nitrous oxide. A Liverpool spokesman said: ‘We are aware of the story and intend to speak to the player. Any subsequent action will be taken internally.’ Sportsmail contacted Sterling’s agent, Aidy Ward, last night. He refused to comment on the story but did not deny that it was his client. A small pocket of Liverpool fans on The Kop vented their frustrations at last night’s game, chanting ‘Raheem Sterling, your agent’s a k***’ during the first half. They were widely applauded. Asked if he will be reminding Sterling of his responsibilities, Liverpool manager Brendan Rodgers said: ‘I will do. He’s a young kid who has been in the spotlight now so he knows the demands of being a top class professional — it’s not just on the field it’s off the field, but I will speak with him on it and we’ll move on.’ Sportsmail columnist and former Liverpool captain Jamie Carragher said: ‘In years to come he’ll look back over this period now as a massive learning curve. When you’re a 20-year-old kid, you make mistakes. I did, I’m sure we all do. It’s just important that he learns from it because Raheem Sterling needs to be on the back pages, not the front pages and that’s a problem for him in these last few months.’ Players' union chief Bobby Barnes called for understanding after Sterling 'made a mistake'. Barnes, deputy chief executive of the Professional Footballers' Association and European president of the international players' union FIFPro, said people should not be too hard on Sterling. He said: 'Nobody would condone the use of these types of substances whether legal or otherwise as footballers are seen as role models. It does send a message to young people that if it's good enough for footballers then it's good enough for them and that is not desirable. The 20-year-old recently snubbed a £100,000-a-week contract offer from the Merseyside club . 'But you have to bear in mind that we ask an awful lot of young players growing up in the public eye. Many of us look back at things we have done in our teens and early 20s and wish we hadn't done them. 'He's made a mistake and people are human. I am sure this will be a minor blip on his path to a fantastic career. 'Players have to be aware that there is camera on every corner - they are very much in the spotlight.

His boss seemed to be watching sitting on a wall opposite and seemed unfazed by it all.' A building expert, who did not want to be named, said the workman should have at least had scaffolding up at the front of the property and a much longer ladder with a harness. He said: 'You can't just stand up there with a bit of rope tied around you and think it's fine, it's not.

A HSE Spokeswoman said: 'Following a concern raised, HSE inspectors visited the house yesterday and served a prohibition notice. 'This means the work had to cease until appropriate safety measures are put in place.'

Prompt: In a hurry: Katrina Maddox, 23, with baby Edward, who was born in the back of an ambulance . In an unusual twist of fate, described as a 'million to one shot', a young mother has given birth in the back of an ambulance for the second time in as many years after her baby boy was born on the same stretch of busy main road as his brother. Katrina Maddox, 23, pulled off the double against all the odds after having baby Edward on the way to hospital in the early hours of last Thursday. Her second little boy came along on the A47 in Norfolk two years after Mrs Maddox, of North Pickenham, near Swaffham, had her first child Reuben in exactly the same way. The surprised mother said: 'I can't believe it's happened twice! 'I can't imagine there are many people who have both their children like this - it must be a million to one.' Mrs Maddox's labour with her first son, Reuben, was three hours long. The toddler, who is now two, ended up being delivered by his dad, Peter Maddox, 30, in the back of the ambulance as they were driven through North Tuddenham. Little Edward took just 72 minutes to arrive as the ambulance travelled past Longwater Retail Park at Costessey, Norwich. 'I really didn't want it to happen again and I was so adamant I was not going to have Edward in an ambulance,' laughed Mrs Maddox, who is training to be an accountant. 'But then it did get to that point when I realised I was not going to make it to the hospital again. 'At least this time Peter was able to be by my side rather than delivering his son himself.' Mrs Maddox, whose husband is a self-employed forester, added: 'I didn't even know I was in labour with my first son Reuben until I was pushing. 'Peter was an absolute saint and so calm for me. He was the best midwife I could have had. 'Both times everything happened so quickly I didn't even have time to panic or think about it.' This time the couple were at home in bed when Mrs Maddox realised Edward was on his way at about 3am. They knew they did not have time to hang around for Peter's parents to arrive. Luckily, a Good Samaritan neighbour popped in to look after Reuben as he slept upstairs, blissfully unaware of the second great baby drama unfolding. The route: This shows where both Reuben and Edward were born on the A47. Reuben came along near North Tuddenham and Edward as the ambulance travelled past Longwater Retail Park at Costessey, Norwich . Happy family: Edward followed in the footsteps of his brother Reuben (pictured), two, who was delivered by his father Peter Maddox as he and wife Katrina rushed to Norfolk and Norwich University Hospital . Mrs Maddox said she had considered it might have been easier to have a midwife go to her, but was told home births were not available in her area. The mum-of-two opted to go to Norfolk and Norwich University Hospital instead of Queen Elizabeth Hospital, King's Lynn, as she knows Norwich and the hospital far better. And the couple joke that they are old hands when it comes to registering an 'in transit' birth. Mrs Maddox, who grew up in nearby Saham Toney, said: 'For Reuben they had to put his place of birth as being in transit on the way to Norfolk and Norwich University Hospital, at North Tuddenham, so I imagine it will be just the same for Edward.'

Mrs Maddox, who grew up in nearby Saham Toney, said: 'For Reuben they had to put his place of birth as being in transit on the way to Norfolk and Norwich University Hospital, at North Tuddenham, so I imagine it will be just the same for Edward.'

Katrina Maddox, 23, from Norfolk, said the odds must be 'a million to one'
Her husband Peter delivered first son Reuben on the A47 two years ago .
History repeated itself when baby Edward also arrived on way to hospital .


Prompt: A baby girl was given hypothermia in order to keep her alive after she developed a potentially fatal brain condition. Caitlin Kellie-Jones suffered from Hypoxic Ischemic Encephalopathy (HIE), a type of brain damage that occurs when the brain does not receive enough oxygen or blood. To control the condition Caitlin was placed in a special cooling wrap within 40 minutes of her birth to keep her at the target temperature of 33.5 degrees for 72 hours. Nicola Kellie-Jones and partner Paul with children Caitlin and Dylan are raising money to help other children . Medics gave little Caitlin, pictured, hypothermia in a bid to prevent any brain damage . Caitlin, pictured, was diagnosed with Hypoxic Ischemic Encephalopathy minutes after she was born . It allows the brain to cool down and minimises the damage from the lack of oxygen. Thankfully, Caitlin, now ten months old, recovered from HIE and is able to feed and play. Her parents, Nicola and Paul, are hoping it will not have affected her ability to walk and talk but they must wait to find out. Ms Kellie-Jones,  27, from Chorley, Lancashire, said: 'Caitlin was in an incubator surrounded by doctors and nurses. 'She wasn't moving or breathing for herself, and was making no noise. 'I had an image in my mind of our first cuddle which was taken away. Doctors were telling us she was very poorly and just to take it hour by hour. 'It was such a relief to bring her home.' Caitlin was born on May 10 last year weighing 7lbs 4oz after a normal pregnancy. She was whisked away by doctors immediately to be placed on a specialist cooling machine. Despite her ordeal, Caitlin, who is now 10 months old, seems to be developing normally . Ms Kellie-Jones, right, wants to raise £16,000 for additional cooling machines to help save other babies . Ms Kellie-Jones said: 'My mum was a neonatal nurse for many years and I often visited her at work and would see all of these babies in their little incubators and see families in and out visiting their babies, but I never imagined it would be me. Ms Kellie-Jones said the next important stage is whether she will be able to walk and talk normally . 'We couldn't look to the days ahead and my mum told me to take lots of pictures. I knew what they were all trying to tell me, everyone thought she wouldn't make it. 'I didn't move from her side for hours. I had the doctors and nurses tell me the worst case scenario so I could prepare myself, but it was very upsetting to hear she might not make it. 'Paul was the opposite, he wanted to know the best possible outcome. 'We were lucky that we were able to get Caitlin on one of the machines, otherwise we might not have been bringing her home.' Caitlin was born and treated at Royal Preston Hospital, where there are only two cooling machines available. Ms Kellie-Jones said: 'We are extremely lucky that the last cooling machine was available for our daughter that day. 'I'm trying to raise money now for two cerebral function machines for the hospital, which monitor brain activity for any signs of brain damage, and, if I raise enough, another cooling machine for the neonatal unit. 'My target is to raise at least £16,000. 'Her brother Dylan, 10, is doing a sponsored bike ride with his granddad to help too. 'At his age he could have thought what happened to Caitlin was normal, but he came to see her every night and loves her to pieces.' Caitlin will need follow up appointments until she is two, but it is hoped she will make a full recovery. To donate go to: www.justgiving.com/CaitlinsCoolingCause . Ms Kellie-Jones said without the cooling machine, Caitlin might not have survived her illness .

Prompt: Nigel Farage caused controversy at the televised leaders’ debate by attacking the high cost of giving anti-retroviral drugs to sufferers not born in Britain . Half of voters agree with Ukip that immigrants should not immediately receive free HIV treatment, a poll suggests. Nigel Farage caused controversy at the televised leaders’ debate last week by attacking the high cost of giving anti-retroviral drugs to sufferers not born in Britain. Ed Miliband said his comments were ‘disgusting’, Nick Clegg said they were ‘politics of the lowest form’ and chancellor George Osborne, when asked, said he was ‘not going to dignify that with a response.’ The Ukip leader insisted afterwards that he had the ‘overwhelming support’ of the British public for saying that foreign nationals with HIV – whom he said accounted for 60 per cent of the 7,000 cases a year – ‘can come into Britain from anywhere in the world and get diagnosed with HIV and get the retroviral drugs that cost up to £25,000 per patient’. He added: ‘I know there are some horrible things happening in many parts of the world, but what we need to do is put the National Health Service there for British people and families who in many cases have paid into the system for decades.’ A YouGov poll of 1,906 adults found that 50 per cent would support ‘people coming to live in the UK being banned from receiving treatment on the NHS for a period of five years’. Another 34 per cent opposed such a ban. A second question saw voters asked which statement best reflected their view. In this, 52 per cent thought Mr Farage was ‘right to raise this issue - immigrants with serious conditions like HIV are costing the health service a large amount of money’. This compared with 37 per cent who picked: ‘Nigel Farage was just scaremongering - compared to the total cost of the NHS this is a drop in the ocean’, and 11 per cent did not know. Interestingly, the respondents did not appear to particularly favour Ukip, saying on average that Mr Farage was only the fourth best-performing leader last Thursday, with Nicola Sturgeon in the lead, followed by David Cameron and Ed Miliband. It later emerged that Mr Farage’s figures were a bit out – there are 6,000 diagnoses of HIV every year according to Public Health England. Diane James, an MEP and the party’s justice and home affairs spokesman, insisted yesterday that Ukip would go on if Farage lost . Just over half (54 per cent) are foreign born, but most of them are thought to have been infected whilst living in the UK. The cost of anti-retroviral drugs per year gas been put at up to £16,000 depending on the stage of infection. The Ukip leader, speaking on the campaign trail yesterday defended his remarks saying he wanted people to ‘think and understand why their grandmother who is 85 finds it very difficult to get drugs for breast cancer but anybody can get on a plane from anywhere in the world, be HIV tested in London and receive antiretroviral drugs. Something, it seems to me, isn’t right here.’ Any foreign national - even a failed asylum seeker – who is diagnosed, has been entitled to free treatment since 2012 due to what experts say are the risks of allowing the virus to spread. A Ukip spokesman said: ‘This poll finding shows yet again the disconnect that exists between the Westminster bubble and much of the population. 'Nigel Farage is the one leader who has the political courage to raise difficult issues and clearly millions of voters agree with that stance.’ It later emerged that Mr Farage’s figures were a bit out – there are 6,000 diagnoses of HIV every year according to Public Health England . Mr Farage took a blow yesterday as another poll showed he would fail to secure a Parliamentary seat. He has vowed to stand down as leader if he fails to become the MP for Thanet South, which he is fighting hard to win at the General Election. A private ComRes poll paid for by a Ukip donor put the Conservatives on course to retain the seat by a small margin. But Diane James, an MEP and the party’s justice and home affairs spokesman, insisted yesterday that Ukip would go on if he lost, and that future leaders of the Eurosceptic party were waiting to ‘put their hats in the ring’. Patrick O’Flynn, Ukip’s economics spokesman, said in an interview on Sky News yesterday that Ukip were not seeking to withdraw treatment from HIV positive foreign nationals already receiving drugs from the NHS.

Prompt: Tony Blair was branded 'out of touch' last night after claiming that he is 'absolutely not' in 'the league of the super-rich'. The former prime minister also suggested he has left British politics behind, declaring that he has 'done British' and is now more interested in working at a 'global level'. Claiming the money he generates pays for the 'infrastructure' around him, Mr Blair said: 'I could not do what I do unless I was also able to generate income'. Scroll down for video . Former Prime Minister Tony Blair has denied he is super-rich after joined the election campaign for Labour . He added: 'Am I better off than most people? Yeah, I'm very lucky. Am I in the league of the super-rich? Absolutely not, though you will have to make up your own mind about that.' Mr Blair, who entered the general election fray for Labour this week, spoke about his multi-million pound earnings in an interview with Newsweek magazine. Mr Blair earns millions of pounds a year from his consultancy roles and charges fees of £250,000 for public speaking. Tony Blair spoke about his multi-million pound earnings in an interview with Newsweek magazine . Since leaving Number Ten in 2007, he has established up a complex network of companies, which make it impossible to calculate his exact earnings. He rarely discusses his wealth, though he has dismissed reports he has amassed £100 million as 'greatly exaggerated', and his allies say he has given millions of pounds to charity. Mr Blair has suggested that in fact, he is worth less than £20million, though he and his family are thought to own property worth at least £30million. His five-storey central London home, and its accompanying mews house is thought to be worth at least £5million, while his Grade I-listed manor house in Buckinghamshire, once owned by Sir John Gielgud, is thought to be worth a similar amount. He and wife Cherie own a further seven properties. Mr Blair, who has been criticised for accepting advisory roles to foreign governments with dubious human rights records, insisted: 'I decided a long time ago that it's whether I'm doing the right thing or the wrong thing. 'If it's the right thing I'm doing, then I should be doing it even if I am being attacked for it.' Asked why he works mainly outside his home country, Mr Blair said: 'I've done British. I suppose where I think I can make most difference is a global level, working on things that had interested me as Prime Minister but was not able to devote myself to in the same way.' Tony Blair bought this Grade II listed Georgian town house in 2004 in central London worth more than £6m . The family purchased the mews house at the rear of their central London property worth approximately £1m . Mr Blair and his wife bought this Grade I listed mansion South Pavilion in Wooton Underwood in Buckinghamshire, once owned by Sir John Gielgud which has ncreased in value to almost £8 million . In what may be interpreted as criticism of Mr Miliband, as well as other political leaders, he warned that the 'centre ground is not leading strongly'. As well as the buy-to-let flats in the North West, the Blairs have a considerable portfolio of private homes for themselves and their children. One of Tony and Cherie’s two London properties is a £8 million five-storey Georgian townhouse, which they bought in 2004. Three years later they snapped up the £800,000 mews house behind it – and have since paid off the mortgage. In 2008 they bought a £5.75million Grade I listed Buckinghamshire manor house - now worth in the region of £8 million. A £1.35million four-storey Georgian property in the capital was bought for son Nicky, 28, last year – paid for in cash. And the couple also paid £600,000 in cash for a three-bedroom cottage in Buckinghamshire for Mr Blair’s sister Sarah the same year. They also purchased a £3.62million townhouse in the capital for Euan and his wife Suzanne. The £1.2million mews property behind it was bought for daughter Kathryn.

'It shows just how out of touch the champagne socialists at the top of the Labour Party are.' As well as the townhouse the Blairs purchased in 2004 and the country estate the couple bought in 2008, the family own at least four other large properties around London. They have made an estimated £5million from increases in the values of their properties, as well as around £100,000-a-year in rent from the flats they own in Manchester and Bristol. The Blairs bought the second of two flats in Bristol for £265,000 in 2002 with help of  Peter Foster . The two Victorian villas in Urmston, Manchester, have been converted into flats and sold to Mrs Blair and her son for £650,000 .

Prompt: It is legendary now that when the Spanish national team was coming to the boil and about to scald world football for six years, La Roja's own fans didn't even know the water was hot. Because they left Spanish soil having eked out two single-goal wins, over Peru and the USA, the booing, whistling and jeering which had pursued them around the peninsula for two years was the last thing they heard before heading off to win Euro 2008. Three trophies later, the senior team is finally in search of a reboot. The identity has been eroded by the passage of time. The transition from excellent to elderly is never fun. Spain lift the trophy at Euro 2008, but their fans had booed them before, not recognising a great team . The World Cup followed in 2010 and now it seems the right time for the old guard to hand over to youngsters . Spain won the European Championships for a second time in a row in 2012 before their World Cup failure . Spain's Under 21s celebrate winning Euro 2013 and their brilliant young players are thriving right now . Nevertheless, the current Champions League quarter-finals are beginning to say something quite interesting about Spain's 'relevo'. If you don't speak Spanish, that term might mean very little to you. But I bet you can intuit. 'Relevo' in this context is like 'relief' — as in the armed forces term for the relief watch. Those who are sent in, fresh and ready, to relieve whichever servicemen or women who have born the brunt of service for the previous day or days. Xavi, Carles Puyol, Xabi Alonso, Carlos Marchena and Joan Capdevila have done their hard miles and it is not clear what toll battle has taken on Victor Valdes, David Villa and Fernando Torres. The natural place to look for fresh, young, well-drilled recruits ready to take on the world is in the Academy graduates. So let's go there. What caught my attention is that Juan Bernat's arrival to the Champions League quarter-final for Bayern Munich at Porto last Wednesday earned Valencia a seven-figure sum as part of the incentives associated with the full back's move to Bavaria. In other words, Bernat was one of those guys, just turned 22, that both Valencia and Bayern thought might be playing 'starting' football at this elite stage of the world's most demanding soccer tournament — but, equally, he might not. The likes of Xavi (right), Barcelona's midfield metronome, have done their hard miles and can now hand over . it is not clear what toll battle has taken on striker Fernando Torres, who now plays for Atletico Madrid . This is the season when he's broken into Vicente del Bosque's senior team, scoring, and formed part of a quite remarkable chain of left backs at the Mestalla — from Jordi Alba, European Champion with Spain in 2012, now at Barcelona, through Bernat to Jose Luis Gaya, a remarkable talent who is currently locked in stalled contract talks at Valencia while Madrid stalk his availability. And if you just look a little more closely then the eight teams left to sort the wheat from the chaff this week show evidence that, beyond Bernat, Spain still have a golden harvest to bring in. For example, take a snapshot of the penultimate trophy Spain won — not Euro 2012 but Under 21 Euro 2013, beating Italy 4-2. In that final they lined up: David de Gea; Martin Montoya, Inigo Martinez, Marc Bartra, Alberto Moreno; Koke, Thiago, Asier Illarramendi; Cristian Tello, Álvaro Morata, Isco. Juan Bernat (right) played in the Champions League  and is the latest in a string of thriving Spaniards . David de Gea (right) has been in fine form for Manchester United and is a real goalkeeping talent for Spain . Of Spain U21's starting line-up at the 2013 Euros, only De Gea hasn't played UEFA football this season . Of that starting line-up only De Gea hasn't played UEFA football this season, eight of them are still in the Champions League quarter-finals while two of the substitutes, Nacho and Dani Carvajal have decent minutes in the competition.

Summarize the following article:

It is legendary now that when the Spanish national team was coming to the boil and about to scald world football for six years, La Roja's own fans didn't even know the water was hot. Because they left Spanish soil having eked out two single-goal wins, over Peru and the USA, the booing, whistling and jeering which had pursued them around the peninsula for two years was the last thing they heard before heading off to win Euro 2008. Three trophies later, the senior team is finally in search of a reboot. The identity has been eroded by the passage of time. The transition from excellent to elderly is never fun. Spain lift the trophy at Euro 2008, but their fans had booed them before, not recognising a great team . The World Cup followed in 2010 and now it seems the right time for the old guard to hand over to youngsters . Spain won the European Championships for a second time in a row in 2012 before their World Cup failure . Spain's Under 21s celebrate winning Euro 2013 and their brilliant young players are thriving right now . Nevertheless, the current Champions League quarter-finals are beginning to say something quite interesting about Spain's 'relevo'. If you don't speak Spanish, that term might mean very little to you. But I bet you can intuit. 'Relevo' in this context is like 'relief' — as in the armed forces term for the relief watch. Those who are sent in, fresh and ready, to relieve whichever servicemen or women who have born the brunt of service for the previous day or days. Xavi, Carles Puyol, Xabi Alonso, Carlos Marchena and Joan Capdevila have done their hard miles and it is not clear what toll battle has taken on Victor Valdes, David Villa and Fernando Torres. The natural place to look for fresh, young, well-drilled recruits ready to take on the world is in the Academy graduates. So let's go there. What caught my attention is that Juan Bernat's arrival to the Champions League quarter-final for Bayern Munich at Porto last Wednesday earned Valencia a seven-figure sum as part of the incentives associated with the full back's move to Bavaria. In other words, Bernat was one of those guys, just turned 22, that both Valencia and Bayern thought might be playing 'starting' football at this elite stage of the world's most demanding soccer tournament — but, equally, he might not. The likes of Xavi (right), Barcelona's midfield metronome, have done their hard miles and can now hand over . it is not clear what toll battle has taken on striker Fernando Torres, who now plays for Atletico Madrid . This is the season when he's broken into Vicente del Bosque's senior team, scoring, and formed part of a quite remarkable chain of left backs at the Mestalla — from Jordi Alba, European Champion with Spain in 2012, now at Barcelona, through Bernat to Jose Luis Gaya, a remarkable talent who is currently locked in stalled contract talks at Valencia while Madrid stalk his availability. And if you just look a little more closely then the eight teams left to sort the wheat from the chaff this week show evidence that, beyond Bernat, Spain still have a golden harvest to bring in. For example, take a snapshot of the penultimate trophy Spain won — not Euro 2012 but Under 21 Euro 2013, beating Italy 4-2. In that final they lined up: David de Gea; Martin Montoya, Inigo Martinez, Marc Bartra, Alberto Moreno; Koke, Thiago, Asier Illarramendi; Cristian Tello, Álvaro Morata, Isco. Juan Bernat (right) played in the Champions League  and is the latest in a string of thriving Spaniards . David de Gea (right) has been in fine form for Manchester United and is a real goalkeeping talent for Spain . Of Spain U21's starting line-up at the 2013 Euros, only De Gea hasn't played UEFA football this season . Of that starting line-up only De Gea hasn't played UEFA football this season, eight of them are still in the Champions League quarter-finals while two of the substitutes, Nacho and Dani Carvajal have decent minutes in the competition. Throw in the fact that Spain's winning Under 21s coach was Julen Lopetegui, 3-1 up on Pep Guardiola's Bayern going into the second leg this week, and the progression from youth-level international football to full-fledged senior winner is going along very nicely. The eight starters and two substitutes from that 4-2 win are all now in the age range of 23 to just having turned 25.

Prompt: Johnathan Isaby (pictured), chief executive of the Tax Payers’ Alliance, called the number of communications staff ‘blatant hypocrisy’ Taxpayer money is being used to fund an ‘army’ of spin doctors with more than 3,400 press officers employed by local councils across the UK. The number of communications employees working for local government is more than two times that working across 20 central government departments. London has at least 425 marketing staff and press officers working across its local authorities, four times more than the entire editorial staff at the Evening Standard, the Times reported. Nearly 45 councils employ 20 or more communications staff each, with Manchester City Council the worst offender for its size. It has 77 individuals working for it in PR and similar areas.

He added that the next central government needed to crack down on the ‘army of propagandists’ funded by the taxpayer. He said those footing the bill expected their money to go to front line services not spin doctors.

Prompt: The Catholic Church has been accused of blocking the appointment of the first ever homosexual ambassador to Vatican City.

But the controversial appointment was met 'with a stony silence', according to the French media. The appointment was met 'with a stony silence' by the Vatican (pictured), according to French media . Le Monde newspaper reported that Mr Stefanini was a practising Catholic but his proposed move from head of protocol at the Elysee had 'not received the agreement of the Vatican's administration'. It added: 'The homosexuality of the appointee would have triggered a barrage against him.' This is despite the fact that Mr Stefanini worked as number two to the French ambassador at the Vatican, the smallest country in Europe, between 2001 and 2005. Le Monde writes ironically that Mr Stefanini counted without the 'charitable souls in Paris and Rome who wanted to turn his sexual orientation into a disability' and 'mobilised to derail his nomination'.

In July 2013, Pope Francis seemed to speak out against centuries of anti-gay teaching by the Catholic Church, saying homosexuals should not be marginalised. Speaking on a flight back from Brazil to Italy, he reaffirmed the official position that homosexual acts were sinful, but homosexual orientation was not. 'If a person is gay and seeks God and has good will, who am I to judge?' said the Pope. The Vatican has not yet commented on the Mr Stefanini's case, but sources close to President Hollande confirmed that other candidates were now being looked at for the prestigious job. Vatican City, home of the Holy See and headquarters of the global Catholic Church, covers 110 acres and has a population of 842. France's Council of Ministers approved Mr Stefanini's appointment on January 5th, but the position remains vacant.

Prompt: There has been a lot of hype surrounding the April lunar eclipse as the moon is set to turn blood red this Easter weekend. But in the lead up to the rare event tomorrow, the Sydney Observatory has been expressing their concerns over the bad weather forecast for the big night. So much so, they're plans to regularly update keen spectators with phase process images have been thwarted due to cloudy conditions. And according to the Bureau of Meteorology, it won't be getting any better. A blood red moon lights up the sky during a total lunar eclipse at on October 8, 2014 in Australia. The next two eclipses are forecast to happen are on April 4 and September 28, 2015 . But in the lead up to the rare event on Easter Saturday, the Sydney Observatory has been expressing their concerns over the bad weather forecast for the big night . The lunar eclipse this month will appear in Sydney's north-eastern sky however Sydney Observatory astronomer Andrew Smith told the ABC this could be one of the shortest eclipses. 'Some sources indicate it will be around 10 minutes of totality, which will make it the shortest since 1917, but other sources say it will be less than five minutes which makes it the shortest since 1592,' he said. A lunar eclipse occurs when the moon passes in the shadow of Earth. This is an area known as the umbra, where light from the sun is blocked by our planet. The light refracts differently in the atmosphere and, as it hits the moon, it appears red. The eclipse is the third in a series of four blood moons, with the final one expected on September 28. Saturday’s total lunar eclipse will turn the moon a burnt reddish orange. In this image the last blood moon is situated high above Sydney . This month's event is now booked out at the Sydney Observatory however more tickets may be released on Saturday morning if weather conditions improve. A lunar eclipse occurs when the moon passes in the shadow of Earth. This is an area known as the umbra, where light from the Sun is blocked by our planet. The light refracts differently in the atmosphere and, as it hits the moon, it makes it appear red. This gives rise to its ‘blood red’ appearance during a total eclipse, when the entire moon is in shadow. If it skirts the shadow, known as a partial or penumbral eclipse, the effect is less dramatic. However the forecast for Easter Saturday isn't looking very promising across Australia, according to the Bureau of Meteorology. Simon Allen, BOM's senior meteorologist, told the ABC that Adelaide will be have the clearest skies out of all the states - where the partial eclipse is set to begin at 8.45pm. Perth and Darwin may be lucky depending on the location of cloud bands. The partial eclipse is set to start at 6.15pm and 7.45pm respectively. Cairns, Hobart and Melbourne will most likely see patchy cloud conditions while Mr Allen says 'Sydney and Brisbane are the least likely to see it [the eclipse]'. The partial eclipse is set to start at about 8.15pm in Cairns. Sydney, Canberra, Hobart and Melbourne can expect theirs at 9.15pm.
