A boy racer who boasted that he had set a new record for driving the 837-mile journey between Land's End and John O'Groats has been cleared of criminal charges.  Thomas Davies claimed to have made the 841 mile journey from the furtherst southwest and northeast corners of the UK in nine hours and 36 minutes back in September 2017, a court heard. But after going public with his record, the 29-year-old was prosecuted for two counts of dangerous driving and perverting the course of justice.  He has been on trial at Truro Crown Court this week but was today cleared by a jury.  Prosecutors alleged he had used two transponders to detect upcoming speed cameras, and also had fake Irish number plates on the car. But these claims were discredited by a traffic camera expert who  said none of the equipment in Davies' car 'could have prevented the fixed speed camera activating'. Thomas Davies, 29, boasted that he drove from Land's End in Cornwall to John O'Groats in Scotl

Joshua Stoddard, pictured was jailed for 32 months by Swansea Crown Court and banned from driving for 45 months after he was convicted of leading police on a 13-mile chase through South Wales This is the incredible moment a police officer uses his vehicle to nudge a stolen car out of the path of an oncoming bus.  Joshua Stoddard was leading police on a 13-mile chase when he swerved across the carriageway towards a service bus coming in the other direction.  One of the pursuing police officers managed to get alongside him and knock his car back into the correct lane with seconds to spare.  The chase – conducted in terrible weather conditions – ended a few miles later when Stoddard crashed into two other cars causing 'catastrophic' damage to all three vehicles.  Sending the defendant down, a judge at Swansea Crown Court described his driving as 'outrageous' and said it was only by luck that he had not killed someone.  The court heard the episode of offending started on th

Ellis, 36, found fame on Fox News defending the president before joining his legal team's effort to overturn the election. She was subject to profiles in The New York Times and Wall Street Journal, who questioned her billing herself as a 'constitutional lawyer' and traces her rapid rise from the Colorado legal system to the president's defender.

Comedian Dave Chappelle got into a heated altercation with a Texas-based actor who says the funnyman is a hypocrite for being an avid mask enforcer, but not wearing a mask himself.  In an exclusive interview Chad Laboy, 31, told DailyMail.com about his unpleasant encounter with Chappelle at the Four Seasons Hotel in Austin last month, that started when one of Laboy's friends approached the comedian without a mask.    Laboy says he was at the hotel bar celebrating his engagement with his fiancée, Carlos Torres, and a few friends when Chappelle and his entourage got agitated and  stormed over to his table - also without wearing masks, putting their health at risk.  Laboy said, 'Chappelle is a hypocrite for not wearing a mask.'

America's employers sharply scaled back their hiring last month as the viral pandemic accelerated across the country, adding 245,000 jobs, the fewest since April and the fifth straight monthly slowdown. At the same time, the unemployment rate fell to a still-high 6.7%, from 6.9% in October, the Labor Department said. November's job gain was down from 610,000 in October. Friday's report of another slowdown in hiring was the latest evidence that the job market and the economy are faltering in the face of a virus that has been shattering daily records for confirmed infections. Before the pandemic, last month's gains would have been considered healthy. But the U.S. economy is still roughly 10 million jobs below its pre-pandemic level, with a rising proportion of the unemployed describing their jobs as gone for good.  Faster hiring is needed to ensure that people who were laid off during the pandemic recession can quickly get back to work. Not enough: Economists had anticipa

President Donald Trump resumed his attack Friday on the Defense bill barreling its way through Congress – this time elevating a split over Confederate monuments. But his urgent public appeals may have come too late – congressional negotiators have refused to yield on his two most desperately sought provisions, and House Democratic leaders now claim they have the votes to override a veto.  The president appeared to reference a provision on monuments – although he referenced U.S. National Parks rather than U.S. military bases, where the charged issue of monuments and names honoring the confederacy is playing out. 'A provision is in the NDAA for the renaming, or even desecration, of National Monuments in National Parks. This is not what our Country wants!' Trump tweeted. The National Defense Authorization Act, which lawmakers consider a must-pass vehicle to shape U.S. defense policy, contains a section to establish a commission on renaming U.S. military bases. It was an outgrowth
