Shocking Video Of Bailiffs Trying To Evict Aggressive Travellers
This is the shocking moment a group of travellers threaten a team of bailiffs during a tense, five-hour eviction stand-off. The bailiffs remain calm and composed while the men, one of whom is carrying a wooden bat, try to intimidate them by throwing insults and threats. In a heated exchange, one traveller calls the bailiff a monkey in a suit, telling him he's going nowhere and daring him to touch his caravan. The traveller, who is staying illegally on the land, thrusts his forehead on the bailiff's head before telling him to get the f**k out of here. The dramatic scenes were filmed in Taunton, Somerset, during the summer by Able Investigations, a Bristol-based enforcement firm which specialises in evicting travellers and squatters. Steve Wood, 56, who founded the company 20 years ago, released the video to illustrate the conditions bailiffs find themselves in on a day-to-day basis.

Flooding on the River Mersey
After a day of very heavy rain, with a month's worth falling in just a few hours, river levels around the North-West of England were raised, including the River Mersey in South Manchester.
This video documents the River Mersey at three places.
At Ford Lane, near Didsbury Golf Course. the road was completely innundated, and had been cordoned off.
At Northenden, there is usually a weir at the place where I was filming, but this has been covered by the rising water.
At Cheadle/Parrs Wood, the area around the bridge was under a Flood Warning alert. The river was fast flowing, but as at 10pm, the river here was contained within its banks.
The video was filmed between 9pm and 10pm on 6th July 2012. The light levels can be a bit low due to the onset or darkness. The water levels were still rising until about midnight.
