Inside the capital's terrifying e-bike crime epidemic
This is a well-worn route for the stealth e-bikes when used by masked robbers behind a 19 per cent rise in luxury watch and mobile phone snatches. In February, London Standard journalists joined the Metropolitan Police's elite Operation Venice squad on patrol. They are cracking down on these kinds of offenders by targeting robbery hotspots in the central, south and west parts of London. Each week an average of 180 victims are attacked for their valuables on the street. Like paralegal Kathryn, 24, who was bundled screaming into a side road near Waterloo after muggers spotted a £3,700 Rolex on her wrist.

A guide to Australia's Torres Strait islands
Fraser told the London Standard: 'We are trying to shift the economic needle. If we incentivise the young to continue to do things that have always been part of their culture — like fishing or basket weaving — there's more reason to stay. Strait Experience is about achieving something that is sustainable with the right balance of tourism and safeguarding the community and its way of life. Not just for Masig, but right across the Strait.'

Bodo/Glimt vs Tottenham: Europa League prediction, kick-off time, TV, live stream, team news, h2h, odds
Bodo/Glimt vs Tottenham in Europa League (London Standard) Tottenham travel to the Arctic Circle this week to finish the job against Bodo/Glimt in their Europa League semi-final. A 3-1 first-leg victory puts Spurs firmly in the driving seat to reach their first European final in six years, but the hosts' artificial pitch could prove a real leveller on Thursday evening. Glimt's home record is impressive, and Spurs will have to again raise their standards if they are to avoid a humbling defeat. ADVERTISEMENT Advertisement The absence of both James Maddison and Lucas Bergvall will be keenly felt, two players who would have started the game, as Spurs look to again keep their season alive for one more game. Date, kick-off time and venue Bodo/Glimt vs Tottenham is scheduled for an 8pm BST kick-off on Thursday, May 8, 2025. The match will take place at Aspmyra Stadion in the Norwegian town of Bodo, located north of the Arctic Circle.

Bodo/Glimt vs Tottenham team news Bodo/Glimt will be able to call upon Andreas Helmersen, Patrick Berg and Hakon Evjen, who were all suspended for the first leg. Key defender Odin Bjortuft, who missed the first leg through injury, will be assessed ahead of the game. Tottenham will be without James Maddison, who could miss the rest of the season with a knee injury, but both Dominic Solanke and Heung-min Son are in contention. Dejan Kulusevski is likely to come in for the second leg, having started the first on the bench, while Wilson Odobert is pushing to start after scoring against West Ham at the weekend. James Maddison is expected to be ruled out (Getty Images) Bodo/Glimt vs Tottenham prediction Much has been made of Glimt's artificial pitch, and rightly so. Their record in front of their own fans cannot be ignored; just one defeat in seven in the competition this season with a +11 goal difference. Spurs' only other experience of playing on an artificial pitch this season saw them taken to extra time in the FA Cup by non-league Tamworth. ADVERTISEMENT Advertisement Their late first-leg consolation will give Glimt real hope of completing a stunning comeback, and an early goal in the second leg could really put the frighteners into the Spurs squad. Ange Postecoglou will be telling his players to likely keep it tight for the opening stages, gaps will open up as the hosts push for the goals they need. One Spurs goal could kill the tie. Bodo/Glimt 2-1 Tottenham Head to head (h2h) history and results Glimt and Spurs have met just once before, in last week's semi-final first leg in north London, which the English side won 3-1. Bodo/Glimt vs Tottenham match odds Bodo/Glimt to reach final: 7/1 Tottenahm to reach final: 1/14 Odds via Betfair (subject to change).
