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. Not because they had a moraljudgment, but because it was unacceptable. Hes publishing a memoir about appalling, v
Whatever family they are born into. Charles spencer also said the press attention suffered by his sister was more dangerous than the attention online focused on kate, the current princess of wales. Princess dianas brother was speaking in an interview to be broadcast tomorrow on the bbc s sunday with laura kuenssberg. Earlier i spoke to graham satchell, who has been reviewing the material in the interview and asked him what was the main thrust of earl spencers comments. Well, this was a searingly honest interview with earl spencer, and at times difficult to watch, to be honest. He has written a book about his experiences of his childhood, particularly at boarding school, and he talks about suffering shocking levels of violence from the age of eight and being sexually abused from the age of ii. He also talks in some detail about his experience at home with his sister, princess diana, and particularly suffering at the hands of a violent nanny, nanny forster. And this is what he had to say
Steve rosenberg, is in moscow with more. Russias democracy is the best in the world, the kremlin says. And at Polling Station 38 in moscow, we found a choice of candidates and plenty of voters. Democracy in action, right . Not quite. Realistically, only one man can win this. Vladimir putin the man whos been on russias political stage for the last quarter of a century. Vladimir putin faces no serious challenger. His fiercest rivals are in exile or in prison. Not that this woman, whose son is fighting in ukraine, wants any change at the top. Of course i voted for putin, she says. I trust him. But not everyone who came out today was actually 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 ballot box. The authorities called the attackers scum. Some voters were greeted with a show. Well, its one way to bang the drum for russian elections. There is voting, too,

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. Devolution is not something i have had to get used to, or to apologise for. Devolution, welsh solutions to welsh problems and opportunities, is in my blood. It is what i have always known through my adult political life. Thats the same for a growing number of our citizens. I want us to use this moment as a Starting Point for a more confident march into the future. A march into the future on behalf of a generation that too often is being asked to Pick Up The Pieces and the bill for those who came before them. In wales it often takes the worst times to get the best out of us. In adversity, you cant match us. We will be there. Fighting tooth and nail for the will be there.
