“Your Mind can make you Poor or Rich. It can place you on the pedestal of glory and greatness or dump you in the dust of suffering and shame. Choose to use your mind right.” -Rev Chris Oyakhilome D.Sc., D.D (The Power of Your Mind)

Royal Bank of Scotland has reached a deal with three of the five shareholder groups who allege they were misled over the bank’s £12bn fund raising in 2008. RBS said it had reached a “full and final settlement” with the three, and would now seek to agree terms with the two remaining groups. Investors argued they were misled over RBS’s health, and so bought shares just months before it was bailed out. RBS has set aside a total of £800m to settle all the claims. RBS – which is still 73%-owned by the government following its 2008 bailout – said…

After a bruising defeat in the High Court, the Government will argue Article 50 can be triggered without an MPs vote. The Government will take its battle to start the process of leaving the EU to the Supreme Court today, in what is seen as one of the most significant constitutional battles in decades. Attorney General Jeremy Wright QC will argue that Theresa May can trigger Article 50 using so-called prerogative powers – meaning MPs do not have to vote on the matter in Parliament. The Government is appealing against an earlier decision by the High Court which ruled in…

Italian PM Matteo Renzi has said he will resign after losing a key referendum on constitutional reform. Mr Renzi had staked his future on a “Yes” vote, vowing to quit if voters rejected his plans – which opponents denounced as dangerous for democracy – to reduce the role of the country’s Senate and take back powers from regional authorities. The result plunges the country into political turmoil, with the effects likely to be felt on the markets and across the rest of Europe. “The experience of my government ends here,” Mr Renzi said in a televised address to the nation. Mr…

The BLW Nation ushered into a glorious season of acknowledging God’s faithfulness. The man of God, Rev. (Dr.) Chris Oyakhilome, announced the word of the Spirit for December 2016, declaring it ‘the Month of Thanksgiving’! Pastor Chris encouraged the global congregation to carefully plan their thanksgiving through the different avenues that will be made available in the churches throughout the month. “There’s a special offering of thanksgiving that you should give to the Lord,” Pastor Chris said, admonishing the brethren to make sure their thanksgiving to the Lord means something special to them.

US President-elect Donald Trump has asserted he won the popular vote on 8 November “if you deduct the millions of people who voted illegally”. The Republican, who won the all-important electoral college count, offered no evidence to back his claim. It comes after the camp of Democratic rival Hillary Clinton said it would support a vote recount in Wisconsin initiated by a Green Party candidate. Mrs Clinton won about two million votes more than Mr Trump in the popular vote. However, Mr Trump surpassed the required 270 electoral votes to win the presidency. This was based on the state-by-state contests.…

The government is facing a legal battle over whether the UK stays inside the single market after it has left the EU, the BBC has learned. Lawyers say uncertainty over the UK’s European Economic Area membership means ministers could be stopped from taking Britain out of the single market. They will argue the UK will not leave the EEA automatically when it leaves the EU and Parliament should decide. But the government said EEA membership ends when the UK leaves the EU. The single market allows the tariff-free movement of goods, services, money and people within the EU. The EEA,…

Furnishings retailer Dunelm has agreed to buy baby goods specialist Kiddicare in a push to boost its online offering. Dunelm will acquire the baby goods retailer as part of an £8.5m deal for online shopping group Worldstores. It is the latest twist for Kiddicare, which was bought by supermarket chain Morrisons for £70m in 2011 before being sold for £2m just three years later. Morrisons also took a hefty writedown on the online seller of cots, car seats, push chairs and nappies. Kiddicare was bought by Worldstores from private equity owners in 2014, where it joined the group’s portfolio of…

Alexis Sanchez took charge in Arsenal’s win over Bournemouth and he’s quickly become their talisman… Arsene Wenger described Alexis Sanchez as “remarkable” after last week’s draw at Manchester United and, against Bournemouth on Sunday, he was once again the Gunners’ standout man. It’s becoming a familiar role. Sanchez has emerged as Arsenal’s talisman this season. The 27-year-old is the player his team-mates look to for inspiration and he relishes that position, providing a spark and a scoring touch to Arsenal’s play, as he did in their 3-1 win over the Cherries at the Emirates Stadium. He constantly demanded the ball…

Billionaire US President-elect Donald Trump has said he is not obliged to cut ties to his business empire when he takes office on 20 January. A Democratic senator is tabling a resolution calling on him to liquidate his assets to prove he does not intend to profit from the office of president. There is no legal requirement to liquidate assets but past US presidents have set aside their business dealings. Mr Trump also disowned far right activists who hailed his election win. “Alt-right” activists could be seen making Nazi salutes at a conference in Washington DC over the weekend, where…
