    The boss of Iceland has been forced to apologise and retract a claim that three staff contracted HIV as a result of needle attacks.

    Charities said there have been no recorded cases of HIV through needle attacks, and the most recent case of HIV being transmitted through a needle stick injury was in 1999. This is because the virus does not survive long outside of the body.

      The boss of Iceland supermarkets, who had hoped to become a Conservative MP, has quit the party, labelling it "out of touch".

      They added that he and his father had been lobbying very senior party figures over the summer, to try to secure Mr Walker a seat, while also pointing out that Labour had been in touch with him too.
      Guarantee he is going to appear as a Labour candidate.

          Halfords initially offered Mr Scott just £16,000 in compensation, which was eventually upped to £20,000 but Mr Scott rejected both. He says he was told the "root cause" of the issue had been his attempts to stop the two men.

          Marty's wife Kim, 51, said the way her husband has been treated by his former employers is "appalling", adding that shoplifting is "out of control". She said: "This is what happens when someone tries to stop these people helping themselves." The firm's lawyers, though, told the Sun: "It is company policy not to attempt to retrieve stock or aggravate the situation and the claimant went directly against this policy, placing himself and potentially others at risk."
