Two men have been arrested in connection with an illegal rave in Huddersfield.

The unlicensed event took place on Saturday night in Deighton and was attended by about 300 people, West Yorkshire Police said.

The force said "missiles" were thrown at officers as crowds were dispersed and sound equipment seized.

The men, aged 29 and 42, were arrested on suspicion of breaching coronavirus legislation on public gatherings.

Both remain in custody for questioning.

From Friday, police in England will be able to fine organisers of illegal gatherings of more than 30 people such as raves up to £10,000.

Sunny spells this evening will be followed by a cloudy night with a few showers developing:

A guitar belonging to Arctic Monkeys frontman Alex Turner has raised £128,544 in a charity raffle for grassroots music venues.

The Fender Stratocaster guitar was used in many of the band's early performances.

The band are working with the Music Venue Trust to support The Leadmill, a Sheffield venue where Turner has used the guitar, and other independent UK grassroots venues.

A minimum donation of £5 bought entry to the raffle and 14,410 tickets were sold over a two-week period.

After forming in Sheffield, Arctic Monkeys performed at several venues around the country during the early stages of their career, and regularly played at The Leadmill in the city.

The venue has also played host to Pulp, Coldplay, Arcade Fire, Muse, Oasis, Stone Roses, The White Stripes, Jorja Smith and Michael Kiwanuka over the last four decades.

Independent venues have had to cancel events and face an uncertain future because of the coronavirus pandemic.

Last week the government announced it would deliver £3.36m in grants to 135 grassroots music venues facing closure.

PC Darren Booth is said to have propositioned a vulnerable woman while on duty in Castleford.

Lynn Corrigan said she feels her anxiety will become worse as lockdown eases.

Juries at Sheffield Crown Court will consider their verdicts in portable cabins to maintain social distancing, a judge has said.

Plans are in place to install a number of the cabins in the car park at the court.

The Recorder of Sheffield, Judge Jeremy Richardson QC, told jurors in one trial it was hoped they would be in place by the time the case ended next month.

The move is intended to help jurors keep a distance of 2m (more than 6ft) from each other.

Judge Richardson, however, said steps were being taken to install portable cabins as some retiring rooms at the court were "not big enough".

He said: "It's easier said than done.

"We need planning permission because we need to lop some trees in order for the crane to deliver them. Believe me it's a logistical nightmare."

He said if it was not possible to bring in the cabins the courtroom itself may have to be used as a retiring room but said that would have an impact on the court's ability to handle cases.

The Co-operative Bank has said it will cut 350 jobs and close 18 branches, including several in Yorkshire, due to the current "economic uncertainty" and the shift to online banking.

As well as jobs lost due to the branch closures, the cuts also include middle management and head office roles.

The bank said that, where possible, it would look to redeploy colleagues.

The Yorkshire branches of the bank which are set to close are in Bradford, Harrogate, Rotherham, Wakefield and York.

The Co-op Bank's chief executive, Andrew Bester, said was "very sorry" for the cuts, which he also blamed on the current record low interest rates.

"We're not immune to the impact of recent events, with the historically low base rate affecting the income of all banks and a period of prolonged economic uncertainty ahead, which means it's important we reduce costs and have the right-sized operating model in place for the future," he said.

"We are responding to the continuing shift of more and more customers choosing to bank online, with lower levels of transactions in branches, a trend which has been increasing for some time, across the banking sector and more broadly."

The branches being closed will shut by the end of the year. The bank said it had looked carefully at customer numbers using the branches before picking the 18 for closure.

Speaking in a video posted on the national side's social media channels, Southgate praised Leeds' promotion-winning season.

He said they'd watched Phillips (pictured) in action "a lot" this year with the Premier League side having an "outstanding" way of playing.

He said: "The position he plays is a position where we need competition for places and the way he plays the role, in the way that he has been coached in the role, is clear to see, so an exciting moment for him.

"I spoke with him this morning, which was a nice reminder of what it means to somebody to be in their first England squad - and a proud moment for him his family and his club."

In Scotland, pupils and staff in secondary schools must wear them in corridors and communal areas.

A Downing Street spokesman has ruled out any review on masks in school in England.

The government says it's asking schools to avoid as much contact between students as possible, whether this is through social distancing or by creating small "bubbles", external to keep students apart.

Dr Cheryl Walter, a virologist and lecturer in microbiology at the University of Hull, said: "For older children, I think wearing a mask is a very good idea.

"Older children will have larger 'bubbles', they're more likely to come into contact with a larger group of people and they might not have any symptoms and inadvertently be spreading it to people."
