Endured when they were young. Heres laura kuenssberg. I always believed the press would kill her in the end, but not even i could imagine that they would take such a direct hand in her death. Charles spencers fury at the way the press treated his sister, diana, made him famous. It is a point to remember. His anger at her funeral, raw, after years of intrusion and pain. A girl given the name of the ancient Goddess Of Hunting was, in the end, the most hunted person of the modern age. Decades later, theres been a frenzy around the current princess of wales, kate even around a family photo. But does the rumour and online speculation compare to what diana endured . No, i think it was more dangerous back in the day. The circumstances of her death were so shocking that it did make the industry that supports the paparazzi really consider more carefully what it could and couldnt do.

Europes first black leader, after winning the welsh labour leadership election. The outgoing First Minister, mark drakeford, will step down from the post next week. Mr gething was born in zambia and is a former solicitor. In his acceptance speech, he highlighted the historic nature of his win. Today, we turn a page in the book of our nations history. A history that we write together. Notjust because i have the honour of becoming the first black leader in any european country, but because a generational dial has jumped too. Like ken and jane, devolution is not something that i have had to get used to, or to adapt to, or to apologise for. Devolution, welsh solutions to welsh problems and opportunities, is in my blood.

Of course i voted for putin, she says, i trust him. But not everyone who came out today was voting. This, one of a string of attacks on Polling Stations across russia. They are unprecedented. After chaotic scenes here. An arsonist is detained. And green ink poured into a b
