Breast surgeon Ian Paterson failed to wait for a report which ultimately did not recommend surgery on a female before he went ahead and carried out out two "unnecessary" procedures" on her, jurors have been told.

Three of the 20 charges denied by Mr Paterson relate to GP Rosemary Platt, whom the court heard was referred to him in 1997 due to a lump in her right breast.

Then 47, Dr Platt went for a mammogram and had fluid removed, with the idea of further investigation being considered. 

The court heard Paterson did not wait for a report by a specialist breast pathologist, which ultimately did not recommend any surgery, to carry out two procedures on Dr Platt. 

Dr Platt later underwent a full mastectomy which "required blood transfusion and painful after effects" following concerns of lumpiness in her right breast, prosecutor Julian Christopher QC said.

"Mr Paterson systematically misinterpreted time and time again Dr Platt's pathology results, thereby raising her anxiety, so that it is not surprising that she was apparently presenting with new concerns about possible lumps leading to excessive clinical visits and ultrasound examinations, and consenting to what in fact was a traumatic series of unnecessary operations," Mr Christopher said.

The trial continues.

Families of Britons killed in a terror attack at a Tunisian beach resort will take civil action against a holiday firm, their legal representatives have said.

They had wanted a coroner to consider whether neglect by holiday firm TUI or the hotel owners was a factor in their relatives' deaths.

Judge Nicholas Loraine-Smith concluded they were " unlawfully killed " when a gunman opened fire at a hotel in Sousse in June 2015, claiming 38 lives in total.  

He rejected a finding of neglect against holiday firm TUI and the hotel.  

After the inquest concluded, Kylie Hutchinson who is representing 22 of the victims' families, however said they would begin civil proceedings against TUI.

Prosecutor Julian Christopher QC has opened the case by setting out the allegations against breast surgeon Ian Paterson.

He told jurors: "The 20 counts of wounding relate to individual operations which he told the patients were necessary, usually, but not always, on the basis that the patients had or were at risk of developing cancer.  

"All of the operations the prosecution allege were in fact completely unnecessary.

He said: "Mr Paterson was carrying it out [the surgery], not because he thought it was in the best interests of the patient, but for his own perhaps obscure motives - whether to maintain his image as a busy successful surgeon in great demand and at the top of his game, whether to earn extra money by doing extra operations and follow up consultations... or because Mr Paterson enjoyed the responsibility that came with helping people." 

Mr Paterson denies 20 charges of wounding with intent against nine women and one man. The trial, which is expected to last 10 weeks, continues.

The police response to a terror attack at a Tunisian resort in which 30 Britons were killed was "at best shambolic and at worst cowardly", a coroner has concluded .

In all, 38 people were killed when an Islamist gunman opened fire at a hotel in Sousse on 26 June 2015.

Judge Nicholas Loraine-Smith said the gunman had been intent on killing as many tourists as he could.

He said he would rule that all 30 Britons were "unlawfully killed". Among the victims were Charles Patrick Evans, his son Adrian Evans, and grandson Joel Richards - along with former Birmingham City player Denis Thwaites, his wife Elaine and Sue Davey, from Tamworth, and her partner Scott Chalkley.

The sale of Benik Afobe meant Wolves achieved a pre-tax profit of £5.8m despite falling attendances in former owner Steve Morgan’s final year at the club.

The trickle-down effect of  the bumper TV rights deal  meant Wolves received a bigger slice of money directly from the league and the club increased its commercial income - normally sponsorship money - by £200,000 in the year.

That helped turnover increase to £27.25m from £26.4m the previous year despite the average home league attendance falling to 20,157 out of a capacity of 31,700 fans.

This was the last year Wolves received a so-called "parachute payment" to ease the financial hardship of relegation from the more lucrative Premier League. The impact of  Chinese conglomerate Fosun International's takeover  of the club will not be seen until next year's accounts are published.
