London Mayor and UK Prime Minister Promote Remain Campaign

The newly elected London Mayor, Sadiq Khan, and UK Prime Minister David Cameron have come together to launch the Britain Stronger Together battle bus, ahead of the UK's referendum on its membership of the EU.

It's an unlikely combination as Prime Minister Cameron is the head of Britain's Conservative Party while Sadiq Khan is the Labour Party's Mayor of London, but both are coming together to campaign for Britain to stay in the EU.

Criticism over Cincinatti Zoo Parents

Cincinnati Zoo in the US has been criticised for shooting and killing a 400 pound gorilla, after a four year old boy enter the enclosure.

Video footage taken on phones shows the Gorilla dragging the child around the enclosure and screams of onlookers can be heard.

It's understood the 4 year old spent 10 minutes trapped by the gorilla before the response team took the decision to shoot the animal.

Thousands of people have now signed an online petition, calling for the boy's parents to be held accountable for not watching their child closer.

Zoo director Thayne Maynard said it was a difficult decision to shoot the gorilla.
