Nicola Sturgeon was released without charge pending further investigation Sunday night after being questioned by police probing the finances of the Scottish National Party she once led. The arrest of Scotland’s former first minister marked the latest dramatic twist in a story which has dominated Scottish politics for months and plunged the pro-independence party into bitter infighting.Here’s POLITICO’s guide to the investigation so far.What is the investigation about?To answer that, we have to go back to early 2017, and the fight for Scottish independence.The Sturgeon-led SNP were in fine fettle — with senior party figures believing Brexit, which was opposed by a majority of Scottish voters in 2016, gave them cause to pursue a fresh referendum on breaking up the United Kingdom.In that spirit, the SNP opened a new channel for donations to help drive their campaign for a new vote.Around £482,000 was raised in just a couple of months. But Westminster’s own wild ...Nicola Sturgeon released after arrest in Scottish National Party funding probe

The former first minister of Scotland, Nicola Sturgeon, has been released from police custody pending further investigation after being arrested amid an investigation into the finances of the Scottish National Party.According to Police Scotland, Sturgeon, 52, was arrested “as a suspect in connection with the ongoing investigation into the funding and finances of the Scottish National Party.” She was questioned by detectives after being arrested at 10.09 a.m Sunday, and was released from custody at 5.24 p.m. without charge, pending further investigation.Sturgeon — who led Scotland’s government from 2014 until 2023 — is the third senior SNP figure to be arrested in connection with the probe, which started interviewing witnesses this year.Police Scotland launched their inquiry in 2021 after complaints were made about the SNP’s use of a £600,000-plus fund raised by activists which was intended to be ring-fenced for campaigning towards Scottish independence.Her husband,...Rail review: Feds to examine safety at major freight lines

OMAHA, Neb. — The Federal Railroad Administration recently completed a review of Norfolk Southern’s safety culture in the wake of the February’s fiery derailment in Ohio, and officials plan to follow up with similar investigations of all the major freight railroads over the next year.A report will be released soon on what investigators found at Norfolk Southern after the Feb. 3 derailment — which prompted the evacuation of half of East Palestine, Ohio — and several other recent derailments. That crash near the Ohio-Pennsylvania border sparked intense interest in railroad safety nationwide and prompted proposed reforms in Congress.The head of the FRA, Administrator Amit Bose, said in a letter to Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer recently that in addition to individual reports on Union Pacific, BNSF, CSX, Canadian National and Canadian Pacific Kansas City, the agency will also produce an industrywide report on common issues and trends.Railroad unions have been raising c...Ex-Scottish leader Nicola Sturgeon released after arrest by police in party finance probe

By JILL LAWLESS (Associated Press)LONDON (AP) — Former Scottish First Minister Nicola Sturgeon, who dominated politics in Scotland for almost a decade, was arrested and questioned for several hours on Sunday by police investigating the finances of the governing, pro-independence Scottish National Party.Police Scotland said a 52-year-old woman was detained Sunday morning “as a suspect in connection with the ongoing investigation into the funding and finances of the Scottish National Party.”She was “released without charge pending further investigation” about six hours later, the force said. British police do not identify suspects until they are charged.A spokesperson for Sturgeon said the former first minister voluntarily attended an interview with police and would cooperate with the force’s investigation.The SNP said the party had been “cooperating fully with this investigation and will continue to do so.

BOGOTA, Colombia (AP) — The four Indigenous children who survived 40 days in the Amazon jungle after their plane crashed were recovering Sunday in a military hospital in Colombia, as new details of their harrowing story emerged in a country still mesmerized by their saga.The kids, aged 13, 9 and 4 years and 11 months, are expected to remain for at least two weeks in a hospital receiving treatment after their rescue Friday, but some are already speaking and wanting to do more more than lying on a bed, according to family members.Manuel Ranoque, father of the two youngest children, told reporters outside the hospital Sunday that the oldest of the four surviving children — 13-year-old Lesly Jacobombaire Mucutuy — told him their mother was alive for about four days after the plane crashed on May 1 in the Colombian jungle. Ranoque said before she died, the mother likely would have told them: “go away,” apparently asking them to leave the wreckage site to survive. He provided no more deta...AP Sources: Ted Kaczynski, known as the “Unabomber,” died of suicide

Ted Kaczynski, known as the “Unabomber,” who carried out a 17-year bombing campaign that killed three people and injured 23 others, died by suicide, four people familiar with the matter told The Associated Press.Kaczynski, who was 81 and suffering from late-stage cancer, was found unresponsive in his cell at the Federal Medical Center in Butner, North Carolina around 12:30 a.m. on Saturday. Emergency responders performed CPR and revived him before he was transported to a hospital, where he was pronounced dead later Saturday morning, the people told the AP. The people were not authorized to publicly discuss Kaczynski’s death and spoke to the AP on condition of anonymity.Kaczynski’s death comes as the federal Bureau of Prisons has faced increased scrutiny in the last several years following the death of wealthy financier Jeffrey Epstein, who also died by suicide in a federal jail in 2019.Kaczynski had been held in the federal Supermax prison in Florence, Colorado, since May 1998, when...Why passengers are not filing complaints with CTA, taking airlines to small claims court instead
Published Thu, 14 Nov 2024 09:34:16 GMT
While passengers continue to sound the alarm that airlines aren’t providing valid reasons when denying compensation for delayed and cancelled flights, the number of complaints filed with the Canadian Transportation Agency continues to rise. A process that commonly begins with an email from an airline referring to a delay or cancellation as an event that “was out of the airline’s control” or “safety-related issue”, ultimately denying the passenger compensation under Canada’s current Air Passenger Protection Regulation, while leaving them feeling frustrated and helpless in determining the validity in the airline’s claim.According to the CTA, in 2022 they received 26,840 complaints related to flight disruptions, ranging from flight and tarmac delays, flight cancellations, and denials of boarding.And with the backlog of air passenger complaints sitting at over 47,000 and the estimated wait time for a case to be reviewed at 18 months, it’s no surprise that a numbe...Trump allies cite Clinton email probe to attack classified records case. There are big differences

WASHINGTON (AP) — As former President Donald Trump prepares for a momentous court appearance Tuesday on charges related to the hoarding of top-secret documents, Republican allies are amplifying, without evidence, claims that he is the target of a political prosecution.To press their case, Trump’s backers are citing the Justice Department’s decision in 2016 not to bring charges against former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, his Democratic opponent in that year’s presidential race, over her handling of classified information. His supporters also are invoking a separate classified documents investigation concerning President Joe Biden to allege a two-tier system of justice that is punishing Trump, the undisputed early front-runner for the GOP’s 2024 White House nomination, for conduct that Democrats have engaged in.“Is there a different standard for a Democratic secretary of state versus a former Republican president?” said Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis, a...Latest news
