A man won £1.7 MILLION playing blackjack online at 1am. The casino called the next morning to congratulate him. Then called back two days later to say there was a software glitch and they were keeping the money. They offered him £60,000 to stay quiet and sign a document promising never to talk about it. He said no.
– Andrew Green was a 54 year old from a small village in Lincolnshire England.
– Just after midnight on January 26 2018 he opened the Betfred app and started playing a blackjack game called Frankie Dettori's Magic Seven.
– He played for five and a half hours straight.
– When he finally stopped the screen showed £1,722,500.24 in winnings.
– He called Betfred. They congratulated him. Told him to call back after 9:30am to arrange collection.
– He went out that night and celebrated with his family. Spent £2,500 on dinner. He was already a millionaire in his head.
– Monday morning he called back. They said the win was so large it needed to be sent to the game provider Playtech for verification. Standard procedure they said.
– Wednesday Betfred called again. Playtech had found a software glitch. The win was void and he would not be paid.
– Their offer was £60,000 but on one condition. He had to sign a non-disclosure agreement promising never to discuss what had happened.
– He said no.
– He sued and the case went to the High Court in London.
– The judge ruled Betfred's terms and conditions were not transparent and not fair. They could not rely on them to withhold payment.
– Three years after he won the money the court ordered Betfred to pay the full £1.7 MILLION plus interest.
– Standing outside the High Court he said "The last three years have felt like hell on earth. I think Betfred have treated me abysmally."
– Betfred apologised for the delay.
– They never explained how many other players hit the same glitch and quietly accepted the £60,000.
A man won £1.7 MILLION at 1am, spent £2,500 celebrating before the money arrived, then spent three years in court to collect what was already his.

NORTH UPDATE
FARMERS STATEMENT
Ballygowan farmer Sam Hanna was joined by his border collie Roy in the cab of one of the lead tractors in the protest on the Sydenham bypass in Belfast, and he said the protest isn’t about farmers.
This is extortionate what we’re getting charged in taxes throughout life, not just fuel, petrol, everything we’re being extorted, he said.
He added: Technically, it’s not us that’s blocking the hard shoulder. We have kept the hard shoulder open. The cars are underpassing the whole way, the police are sitting watching them underpass. It’s the cars that are blocking the hard shoulder.
There was a couple of emergency vehicles went down there’s a few there coming, and we pulled over straight away.
He described the rising price of fuel as the final nail in the coffin.
🚨BREAKING: HUGE convoys consisting of THOUSANDS of people are FLOODING the city of Dublin 🇮🇪

Between 1969 and 1974, as the Troubles tore Belfast apart, five young boys vanished from the streets within a five-mile radius never to be seen again.
possible links to witchcraft and the occult… plus shocking allegations that British intelligence agencies protected known pedophile informants at the infamous Kincora Boys' Home, allowing them to continue abusing children in exchange for intelligence during the conflict.
Exposing secret state documents suggesting abuse, murder, and potential cover-ups involving figures tied to Kincora.
Fifty years on, the families are still searching for answers and justice.
These boys and their families deserve the truth.

I’m pleased to confirm that I have agreed to continue working with MP Rupert Lowe for another 12 months so we can keep exposing the rape and torture of children in the UK.
Over the past year our team has been working towards publishing a major report into the rape, torture and murder of children, and how authorities across the UK turned a blind eye — and in many cases were complicit — for decades.
We will continue bringing these harrowing truths to the public.
We are also assisting in ongoing criminal investigations and look forward to the possibility of private prosecutions taking place.
We have already helped survivors begin legal proceedings against the authorities that failed them, and we will continue supporting others seeking justice.
I’d like to thank our team, our donors and the public for their continued support. Most importantly, I want to thank the survivors, families and whistleblowers who are working with us and showing immense courage.
There is still a huge amount of work ahead of us. The scale of this task is enormous, but we must all do everything in our power to bring these injustices to the forefront and ensure those responsible are held to account.
Thank you
