The Welsh Government has banned all alcohol sales across the whole country after 10pm in their own draconian coronavirus crackdown. Pubs, cafes, restaurants and casinos in Wales must operate as table service only and close from 10pm, First Minister Mark Drakeford announced. Off-licences including supermarkets will also be stopped from selling alcohol at the same time as part of new restrictions which come into force at 6pm tomorrow. Mr Drakeford confirmed the measures as part of a televised address last night, following a similar announcement by Prime Minister Boris Johnson. Earlier on Tuesday, he told the Welsh Parliament that he would be encouraging people in Wales to only make essential journeys. He said reducing the amount of journeys and meetings with others resulted in 'less danger' being posed to people.

The desperate search to find William Wall continues after he didn't return home Volunteers hoping to help in the search for an autistic boy who went missing in dense bushland have been asked to stay home due to coronavirus restrictions. William Wall, 14, was last seen heading out for his daily jog along the Yarra Ranges' Warburton Trail at 6.45am on Tuesday, promising his family he would be back in 15 minutes. But he never returned to his home in Launching Place.  William's distraught father Shane issued an emotional plea as police and State Emergency Service volunteers beagn scouring bushland and difficult terrain from the air and on the ground.  'I just want him home, as simple as that,' he told Nine News as he fought back tears. 'Just get home. That's all I want and be well.'  'At the moment, everyone's hoping that he's going to be okay,' he said. As the search entered its second day, many locals were left fuming after being advised t

Manhattanites looking to dine out in the cool, fall weather while keeping a distance from others can now do so in 'space bubbles' that protect up to six customers from the wind and rain. The French restaurant Cafe du Soleil on the corner of Broadway and West 104th on Manhattan's Upper West Side placed transparent tent bubbles over each dining table in the outdoor eating section. The eatery put the 18 geodesic domes, or 'space bubbles,' along its outdoor dining area on the pedestrian sidewalk so that customers won't be scared away by the fall elements. Each space bubble, which is made out of clear plastic, is 7ft tall and has enough room to sit six customers, according to Time Out New York. The bubbles make it feel 10 degrees warmer for diners brave enough to step outside during the fall.  Diners at Cafe du Soleil on Manhattan's Upper West Side have the option of eating outdoors inside 'space bubbles' The space bubbles keep out the rain and the wind

An infamous ex-bikie boss will spend a year behind bars after threatening to kill police in a 'bizarre' and 'menacing' meth-fuelled rant. Former Bandido Brett 'Kaos' Pechey was sentenced in Perth Magistrate's Court on Tuesday over a two-day incident that began on June 24, where he was seen in a video next to a shotgun saying 'coppers die today'. The saga began when Pechey 'imitated the cocking' of a long-armed firearm toward two officers who were issuing the face-tattooed 34-year-old with a police order following a domestic violence incident involving his ex-partner.       Pechey (pictured ex-girlfriend Rikki-Louise) will spend a year behind bars after threatening to kill police in a 'bizarre' and 'menacing' meth-fuelled rant 'I'm not here to hurt anyone, if I was you wouldn't know about it.

 INSURANCE customers will no longer be punished for their loyalty under plans that could save households £1billion a year. In a victory for Money Mail, the Financial Conduct Authority yesterday announced that insurers would not be allowed to charge existing clients more than new ones. The regulator said its reforms would ‘put an end to the very high prices paid by some long-standing customers’. Under ‘price walking’, a new car insurance customer typically pays £285 a year, while one who is loyal for five years pays £370. The equivalent figures for home cover are £130 and £238. One Money Mail reader saw their household premium rise from £313 in 2019 to £1,119 in 2020, despite not having made a claim since 2012. Mr John Finlay, 79, from Mayfield in East Sussex, saw his car premium rise by 85 per cent in four years Ten million policies across home and motor insurance are held by customers who have been with their provider for five years or more. A third of those overpaying for cover are v

The son of a coronavirus victim has launched a class action lawsuit against Melbourne's bungled hotel quarantine company.  Dragan Markovic, from St Albans in the city's northwest, watched his 83-year-old father Nenad die through a glass window at Brunswick Private Hospital in August. He passed away 10 days after being transferred to hospital from Kalyna Care nursing home, in Melbourne's northwest. About 99 per cent of Victoria's second wave - accounting for more than 700 deaths - has been traced back to the quarantine program where private security firms were hired to guard returned travellers.
