Pizza-loving Prince Plotted to Stop Charles Becoming King - Author Claims
Scandals seem to follow Prince Andrew everywhere he goes, with the latest claiming he colluded with Princess Diana and ex-wife Sarah Ferguson to skip Prince William to the front of the queue for the crown, according to an explosive new book titled Queen Consort Camilla.
Andrew allegedly lobbied the Queen and campaigned against Charles and Camilla's marriage, arguing she was not trustworthy.
"His behavior was very, very negative and extremely unpleasant to Queen [Elizabeth], who disagreed. I was told it was one of the rare occasions he didn't get his way," said a palace insider. "He was apparently very angry that he couldn't rule the country in some way".

Men Who Eat Meat Should be Banned from Sex โ PETA
The German branch of Peta claims men who eat meat should be banned from having sex, citing a researched published last year in the scientific journal PLOS One.
The study apparently found that men emit 41 per cent more greenhouse gases than the female population with their eating habits.The animal rights group linked the figures to โtoxic masculinityโ.
โIf you want to resolve the climate crisis, you have to reduce meat consumption, and thatโs not going to happen so long as masculinity is constructed around meat,โ said Daniel Cox, campaigns team leader for Peta Germany.
The activist added that a sex ban would be a decent toll on meat-eating men, "After all, every child not born saves 58.6 tons of CO2-equivalent per year," she said.

Canada Braces for Battering from Hurricane Fiona
The storm - which has already killed 8, and knocked out power for 3.3m people in Puerto Rico - is stalking its way north towards Nova Scotia after threatening Bermuda.
Windows were boarded up and groceries and batteries were stockpiled by panicked Bermudans as the territory was hit by pounding rain, vicious winds and storm surges.
Fiona looks to be one of the worst storms in Canada's history and will likely track along Nova Scotia before tearing through Newfoundland and Labrador over the weekend.

US Rattles Naval Saber at North Korea
The USS Ronald Reagan and its strike group has docked in Busan ahead of joint drills with South Korean forces, and in an apparent show of force to Pyongyang.
It is the first time an aircraft carrier has arrived in South Korean waters in 4 years, and is the most significant deployment yet as Washington seeks to increase numbers of its "strategic assets" in the area to ward off the North.
The US announced the visit as a way for the crew to volunteer at orphanages and sample the K-pop music scene - and made no mention of North Korea. "We are leaving messaging to diplomats," Rear Admiral Michael Donnelly told reporters.

Macron Suggests Covid Link to Ukraine Conflict
Macron speculated about Putinโs mindset and the reasons he ordered Russian troops to enter Ukraine in late February, during an interview with CNNโs Jake Tapper on Thursday.
โI have no rational explanation. I think this is a series of resentment, this is a strategy of hegemony in the region, and I would say this is a post-Covid-19 consequence, isolation,โ he said.
When asked about the positions of countries such as China, which refused to implement sanctions against Russia, Macron declined to condemn them.
โI think we have to avoid lecturing people and saying we are on the good side of history. I think, if we have a lot of respect, we try to understand where they stand, what they do believe in, and what their feelings are, we can convince them,โ he said.

Herpes could fight cancer โ study

A genetically-engineered herpes virus can kill cancer cells by destroying and shrinking tumors
Researchers in the UK have developed a form of herpes simplex that can fight cancer in treatment-resistant patients, according to findings presented at the European Society for Medical Oncology Congress earlier this year. The virus is injected into the tumor, where it multiplies and bursts cancer cells from within while promoting the bodyโs immune response.
Called RP2, the modified herpes virus blocks a protein that inhibits immune response and 'switches on' genes that trigger an anti-cancer immune reaction.
Side effects were mild, the researchers c...
