Radioactive - The Final Cut


A female student from the University of Winchester was sexually assaulted last night as she walked home.  The incident took place between 10.30 and 11.30 pm on Stanmore Lane. Police are investigating the incident. Seb Miell, President of the Student Union for the University of Winchester urged students to stay safe as they walk home late at night.

Police Officer David Rathband has been found dead in his home, in a suspected suicide. PC Rathband was shot and blinded by gunman Raoul Moat in one of this country’s biggest manhunts, and has been blind since.  He had been struggling to come to terms with his blindness and leaving the police force, and it is has been suggested this may have caused him to kill himself.

A murder suspect has been found hanged in his cell in a Manchester Prison.
Barry Morrow, aged 52, was awaiting trial for double murder, accused of killing his landlady and her mother last year.
This is the second high profile prisoner to be found dead at Manchester prison in recent weeks.
A post mortem is due to take place later.

Householders across the UK are being called to restrict water usage after one of the driest winters on record.
Drought is expected this summer after little rainfall through the winter months, and Hampshire residents will be affected. Southern Water have asked customers to conserve water, despite saying hosepipe bans are unlikely.
With the need to conserve water, the idea of timed showers has been suggested. I asked Winchester residents what their recommended shower length would be.
