A FILM starring actors from Star Wars and Game of Thrones, set and filmed in Pembrokeshire, will have its world premiere at the Glasgow Film Festival today (Thursday). The Toll, written by Matt Redd, originally from Haverfordwest, and described as a west Walian western was shot in Pembrokeshire in November 2018, and features a host of recognisable faces from film and television. Michael Smiley (Rogue One: A Star Wars Story) stars as a former criminal working solo shifts in the quietest toll booth in Wales, hiding from his past where nobody ever thought to look – Pembrokeshire. When he finally gets rumbled, word of his whereabouts gets out and his enemies head west for revenge. Annes Elwy (BBC s Little Women) plays a young local traffic cop whose investigation into a simple robbery finds her heading for the booth at exactly the wrong time.
NPP accuses NDC of orchestrating market fires 22nd Dec 2020 | Source: Graphic Online
NPP General Secretary, John Boadu
The governing New Patriotic Party (NPP) has accused the opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC) of inciting its members to set fire to some markets in Accra.
The NPP in a statement signed by its General Secretary, John Boadu said the opposition had resorted to arson to express their concerns over the outcome of the 2020 general election. The NPP has noted with grave concerns and revulsion, the increasing spate of market fires being experienced across the country in recent times. The sheer rampancy and coincidence with which the markets are burning, coupled with the constant threats by some elements of the opposition to burn markets in order to drum home their concerns over the outcome of the 2020 general elections, leaves no lingering doubt that they are behind these arson attacks, the statement said.
