Northamptonshire campaigns against renaming

Northants: Campaigners have set up a Facebook group in a bid to stop their county being rebranded.

Northamptonshire is to be dubbed "North Londonshire" as part of a drive to encourage people to move there. The rebrand is the brainchild of urban regeneration company the North Northants Development Corporation.

Devon: A huge stock of macabre and bizarre sex props have been discovered by police during a raid on a suspected brothel. Among the hundreds of items taken from the property in the village of Lee Mill were whips, masks, wooden bats, a Nazi uniform and a straitjacket.
