Diana pregnancy test would have been 'disastrous'

Hamza can be extradited, says court
Radical Islamic cleric Abu Hamza can be extradited to the US on terror charges, a court has ruled.
Senior District Judge Timothy Workman, sitting at London's City of Westminster Magistrates Court, ruled that Hamza, 48, had lost his legal arguments against his long-running extradition battle.

Climate change bill published
The government published a ground-breaking climate change bill on Thursday, starting a parliamentary process that could lead to a legal limit on national emissions of carbon gases within six months.
The bill sets a target of cutting national emissions of climate-warming carbon dioxide by 60 percent by 2050.
It would make Britain the first country to adopt such a legally binding commitment.
"This bill is a landmark in environmental legislation and will set us firmly on the path to the low-carbon economy we know is fundamental to our future," said Environment Secretary Hilary Benn.
