'Inhumane is all I can say!' Witness tells of his 'disgust' at seeing police ram terrified calf with their squad car - as calls grow for 'monsters' to be sacked and new video shows the animal calmly wandering down London street before officers swooped
Kai Bennetts, 22, said the young cow was left with an 'open gash' and 'loads of grazes where the skin had come off' after it was hit by the police car and thrown several metres down the road. He said that the first strike, the cow 'tried to get back up, and then they (the police) pushed it back over and blocked it by its neck and top half of his body and so it couldn't get up.' Mr Bennetts added: 'Inhumane is all I can say.' Calls are growing for the 'monsters' who rammed the calf to be sacked after a new video showed the bovine calmly wandering down the street before officers swooped in who said they had to knock the animal down to keep the public safe. Shocking footage shows police brutally smashing into the calf twice after it escaped from its enclosure as a nearby member of the public in Staines-upon-Thames, west London, shouts: 'What are you doing that for?'. Wildlife TV presenter Chris Packham, Home Secretary James Cleverly and Deborah Meaden were among those condemning the 'brutal' actions of the police force.
EXCLUSIVEFamily falsely say I pushed aristocrat to his death, claims grieving widow, 88, of Marquess of Ailesbury
EXCLUSIVE: The partner of a wealthy aristocrat who died in a fall spoke out about her ordeal last night as she claimed family members had accused her of being involved in his death. Teresa Marshall de Paoli, the partner of the Marquess of Ailesbury for 37 years, said she was shunned at his funeral after he was found bleeding from the head last month on the patio of her west London home. Relatives of the late Marquess -also known as Michael Brudenell-Bruce, who was suffering from dementia when he died at 98 - are contesting his will. It was changed two years ago and gives Ms Marshall de Paoli, 88 - a former fashion model who dated Frank Sinatra - a fifth of his estate.

Hero Navy pilot with tumour stretching from his chin to his heart is saved by a 12-hour operation
Rich Sutton, 53, was diagnosed 12 years ago with epithelioid fibrosarcoma - a rare and usually fatal cancer that begins in the bone but can spread anywhere, making it difficult to treat. The father-of-two, who spent decades flying helicopters in Northern Ireland , Afghanistan and Iraq , is among hundreds of Armed Forces personnel who say their rare and deadly cancers have been caused by exposure to toxic exhaust fumes during their years of service. In his case it started in his neck and spread throughout his body. Despite eight bouts of surgery over ten years, Rich's cancer continued to return - with one tumour growing so large it left him gasping for breath as it crushed his windpipe. Surgeons at three hospitals told Rich that the growth was inoperable due to its size and proximity to a major blood vessel carrying blood to his brain. He was given less than a year to live and prepared to say goodbye to his children Tom, 28, and Emma, 25.
How the Trooping The Colour Buckingham Palace balcony appearance has changed over time due to King Charles's slimmed-down monarchy
Over the years, Trooping the Colour has remained one of the royal highlights of the year, when the family get together and enjoy the flypast. Each year, thousands of well-wishers gather around to catch a glimpse of the monarch's family - however, the number of royals invited to show their faces on the balcony of Buckingham Palace has been whittled down year by year. In 2023, just 14 members of the Royal Family took to the historic spot to mark the King's birthday celebrations, while this year, the balcony was not much fuller, with 15 members watching the flypast. There was a sizeable gap between the senior working royals and lesser known members of the Firm such as the Duke, 78, and Duchess, 76, of Gloucester. This noticeable space between the two groups could be Charles making a clear point about the future of the Royal Family.
Inside Biden's 48 hours at the G7 where alarmed allies noticed he was 'losing focus and tired' after missing dinner, wandering off and snapping at the press
Outweighing the good moments at the G7 were the ones that became a PR disaster, strengthening perceptions that President Joe Biden's health and mental capabilities have gotten worse. The visuals, however, have taken root: Biden appeared to wander off during a demonstration by parachute jumpers, he's been staged managed by the Italian prime minister, and he snapped at a reporter who asked him about the war in the Middle East because he wanted to talk about Ukraine instead. Biden, 81, has had a rough 48 hours in Italy , battling the 80-degree weather and a brutal schedule of jammed-packed days. The president is also coming off a five-day trip to France and seeing his son Hunter convicted of three felonies tied to a 2018 handgun purchase, which has aides worried about the personal toll on the commander-in-chief.
