Sanders welcomes resignation of top Democratic official as Convention begins

Senator Bernie Sanders has told his delegates to the Democratic Convention that the resignation of a top party official creates the possibility of "real change".

He was speaking shortly after the FBI launched a probe into the hacking attack on Democratic Party servers that revealed party leaders had worked to scupper Senator Sanders' Presidential bid.

But he says he is standing by his support of Presidential nominee Hillary Clinton, and will work instead to change the Party's internal rules following the resignation of Congresswoman Debbie Wasserman Schultz as the head of the Democratic National Committee.

Protestors engulf ousted Democratic Party chair as Convention begins in Philadelphia

Protestors in Philadelphia have engulfed the former head of the Democratic Party who resigned over the weekend after leaked e-mails indicated that the Democratic National Committee had failed to observe neutrality during the party's primary elections.


Debbie Wasserman Schultz, a Congresswoman from Florida, was forced from her position as the head of the DNC over the weekend.


The e-mails show DNC staffers were conspiring to undermine Senator Bernie Sanders' bid for the Presidency and to favor Hillary Clinton.


Mrs. Wasserman Schultz faced down angry Bernie Sanders supporters ahead of the start of the Democratic Convention.

Dover delays could cause weeks of disruption

Delays for British holidaymakers trying to drive to France have eased - but the disruption caused by the weekend's extortionate queues to the Port of Dover could last for weeks, police say.

Over the weekend drivers found themselves stuck in14 hour traffic jams due to a large number of people off on their holidays, but also because of increased border checks in France.

While congestion levels are reportedly back to normal, the knock-on effect means it's likely travellers heading towards the crossing could face delays for weeks to come.

SUICIDE BOMBER ATTACKS IN SOUTHERN GERMANY

A failed Syrian asylum seeker has killed himself with a backpack bomb in southern Germany, injuring 12 other people.

It happened in the town of Ansbach after he was denied entry to a music festival.

Last Monday, also in the state of Bavaria, a knife attack on a train was claimed by the Islamic State group.

At the weekend there was also a shooting rampage in Munich, and a Syrian asylum seeker was arrested over a machete attack which left one woman dead.
