  15. Man squeezes 26ft Xmas tree into 18ft housepublished at 11:16 Greenwich Mean Time 14 December 2018

    It's difficult enough dragging a normal sized christmas tree into your front room without covering the place in needles.

    So spare a thought for Colin Furze from Stamford.

    The YouTube inventor was told by his wife to fetch a tree but couldn't resist getting the biggest he could find.

    To make it fit, he cut the tree into three parts and has left a segment on each level of his home.

    Colin says he brought a tree home last year which his wife said was too big.

    But that, he says, was "like a red rag to a bull" and inspired him to go one step further.

  17. Protesters demand council support over pension changepublished at 10:17 Greenwich Mean Time 14 December 2018

    Protesters are calling on Lincolnshire County Council to give more support to women struggling because of an increase to the state pension age.

    protest

    Many women born in the 1950s had been expecting to retire at the age of 60, but the rules were changed in 1995.

    It's thought that 3.8 million people are affected by the change.

    A protest is taking place at County Hall in Lincoln this morning to coincide with 100 years since women first voted in a general election.

    But the leader of Lincolnshire County Council, Councillor Martin Hill, says he won't be backing the protesters:

    Quote Message

    Although I sympathise with the speed at which the last change was made, the government did make some concessions so nobody is more than 18 months worse off. But it does mean some women, including my wife, will have to work a little bit longer to get their pensions."

    Mr Murphy accepts killing Ms Gibson, but claims his responsibility was diminished by a mental health condition.
