Let Libya stage trial of Gaddafi's son, lawyers ask war crimes court
The Guardian, 02/05/2012, p.18, Owen Bowcott
Libya has formally asked the international criminal court to abandon its legal action against Saif al-Islam Gaddafi and the country's former intelligence chief so that both men can be tried in Tripoli, where they could face the death penalty. Saif al-Islam, who studied at the London School of Economics, was expected to succeed his father, Muammar Gaddafi.

A new way to find jobs for two in five wishing to work beyond 65
Telegraph.co.uk (blog) (2 May 2012)
Forced early retirement to care for frail relatives costs the UK economy £1.3bn a year in lost tax revenues and carers’ benefits, according to calculations by the London School of Economics. By contrast, Care UK claims that effective government support to help carers continue at work could boost economic growth – for example, a care strategy from the French Government has led to the creation of 100,000 jobs a year, making the care sector one of the fastest growth sectors in the country.
