Planning consent for a new care home to be built in Middlesbrough has been granted.

Kate McCann intends to quit her job as a GP and take up a new career in child welfare, it has emerged.

A care worker was stabbed to death doing a routine visit to a paranoid schizophrenic who just weeks earlier had turned up at Buckingham Palace to kill the Queen.

The family of an 89-year-old woman who died in a care home fire is considering legal action following their disappointment at a coroner’s decision at her inquest.
