Thomson Airways is the first UK airline to fuel its planes between Birmingham and Palma with biofuel. The airline, owned by Europe's biggest tour operator TUI Travel is calling on the airline industry and government to review legislation on biofuels to allow other airlines to follow suit. Why predicting the economic impact of the 2012 Olympic Games is not an exact science How hospitals are failing to risk assess patients for DVT resulting in thousands dying needlessly. And should the Port of Dover be privatised? The port is currently run by an independent trust which is appointed by the department of Transport. The Chief Executive of the Harbour Board says that privatisation would allow the port to expand the business and help regenerate the local area. However a group calling itself the Dover People's Port Trust has also launched a rival bid which it says has the backing of the local community. Plus we celebrate the Great British Countryside and those who look after it and find out the sentence facing the gang who sold tickets online to more than ten thousand people for the 2008 Beijing Olympics without delivering a single one.
