NYPD officer is investigated for shoot on sight comment about 50 Cent - Daily News - Duration: 3:05.

A New York Police commander is being investigated for allegedly telling officers to shoot rapper 50 Cent on sight

NYPD Deputy Inspector Emanuel Gonzalez allegedly made the comment last June during a roll call at the 72nd Precinct in Sunset Park, Brooklyn

The officers were being briefed because the rapper - whose real name is Curtis James Jackson III - was due to attend an NYPD boxing match in the Bronx

'Shoot him on sight,' Gonzalez is alleged to have told his officers. Gonzalez tried to dismiss the comment as a joke, police sources told the New York Daily News

'The inspector just said that at roll call. I'm like WTF,' one source in the room said

Gonzalez, who has been on the force for 30 years, is now being investigated for the comment

A month before making the comment, Gonzalez had filed an aggravated harassment complaint against the rapper over what he said was a threat on Instagram

50 Cent had commented on a news article about Gonzalez being sued by a Sunset Park club owner who had alleged the officer was shaking down his business

The rapper, who frequented the club, wrote 'get the strap', which is a slang word for gun

50 Cent later deleted the post and was never charged despite a police investigation

Share this article Share He regularly posts the phrase on social media and Urban Dictionary now defines it as: 'A boss phrase meaning someone has ticked you off so you're going to escalate the situation

Popularized by 50 Cent's Instagram posts.'50 Cent's representative said he had only just learned of the threat but was taking it seriously

'Mr Jackson takes this threat very seriously and is consulting with his legal counsel regarding his options going forward,' the rep said

'He is concerned that he was not previously advised of this threat by the NYPD and even more concerned that Gonzalez continues to carry a badge and a gun

Thank you very much for 1000 subscriptions (4K) (GoPro Hero7 Black) - Duration: 5:13.

Hi!

Listen, we're very happy.

A couple of days ago we reached 1000 subscriptions on our channel.

Yes, we are really shocked.

We waited for that number.

And finally it happened.

For how long the channel has been active?

Since June, so that's over half a year.

Of course there are channels where it goes much faster

but we work at our own pace, we publish videos

mainly about our travels.

We don't have any big advertisements on Facebook and such.

It just happened.

We did it. We reached 1000.

We are very glad that you're with us

that you watch us, that you like our films

that you're writing so many comments.

Yes, that's something that really motivates us

if we read those very positive comments.

Most thumbs are thums up

although rarely there are also thumbs down of course.

It's a pity that those who give thumbs down don't write why

cause that would also be a motivation for us.

if someone would write: I give you a thumbs down cause I don't like this and this.

Maybe we could improve on that

but now we simply don't know about it.

But in general there are a lot of positive reactions

from people who say that we inspire them

or who want to go on a big or small trip because they were watching us.

And that's what it's about.

That's what it's about. To go outside.

Some people never went anywhere or are afraid to go

and I hope that we can show them that it's not that complicated.

If you want to, if you have a dream to go somewhere

it doesn't have to be the end of the world, the middle of Asia, the Pamir Mountains or high passes.

You can go to Slovakia, or just 20 km outside of Cracow or Warsaw

and you can also find some really nice places there.

So please stay with us.

There will be a lot more nice videos.

We reached the 1000, and on that occasion we also have a new camera

the Gopro Hero 7 Black

with which we are now filming.

We would like to improve the quality, the image and the sound

I hope this camera will help in that.

It has a lot of nice options that we don't know how to use yet

cause we've had the camera for 2 days now.

We'll learn how to use it and make a video about it.

I am going to make a film about this GoPro 7

with the main point of focus on how to use it while travelling.

Our channel is about travelling.

Not only, but so far our content is mostly about travelling.

And I think that thanks to this new function called... What is it called?

Hyper Smooth Stabilisation, did I say that well? - I think so.

the camera gives amazing possibilities

because you don't need to carry a gimbal.

That's great, a better quality.

So we reached the 1000, we have a new camera

we are developing our channel and planning several interesting things.

We would finally like to publish the long awaited Caucasus.

We have the materials, but they are not assembled yet.

Only the first episode is 90% ready.

Unfortunately we don't have enough time.

We're mainly busy with the Asia series

and the other things fall to the background.

So thank you for being with us!

We are glad.

And we'll work on.

Let us know what you like but also what you don't like

cause that is just as important.

Bye!

En om te zorgen dat het niet te grappig is, geven we Dorenda een duw.

Tired of people taking us for a ride Nigeria readies to vote Elections 2018 News Al Jazeera

On the eve of Nigerias presidential election, voters speak to Al Jazeera about which way theyll vote, and why.

Lagos, Nigeria In Saturdays vote, after a bitter campaign, main opposition candidate Atiku Abubakar and 71 other candidates will go head to head with for Nigerias top job.

Al Jazeera spoke to people on the streets of Lagos about how they planned to vote, and why.

Here is what they had to say:

I am voting for President Muhammadu Buhari. He is not a corrupt leader, if he says he would do something, he does it. To make Nigeria great, let us all support him to finish his two terms.

I am voting for Omoyele Sowore. He has all it takes to be the Nigerian president. Sowore has offered his life for good governance, right from when he was in school; he has been deeply involved in human rights issues trying to ensure that the average Nigerian has a quality life to live. He has the integrity, he has the educational qualification that is required and he has the exposure and more importantly, he has the zeal and the energy to give that expectation to Nigerians because we are tired of politics of bread and butter, we are tired of people taking us for a ride. In Sowore, we can see that he means well and the integrity is there to speak for him.

I am voting for Atiku Abubakar because, in the last four years, Buhari hasnt performed well; people are crying, the cost of things has doubled, people are going through a lot of pain and sorrow, people are suffering and nothing is moving forward. Many companies have folded up. At the organisation my wife was working at, they sacked about 250 of them. Let us try Atiku, if he doesnt do well, after four years, we vote him out.

The present government promised us a lot of things to change the country but it was like a trick. Atiku is a successful businessman and I want to vote for him because he understands the economy.

I am voting for President Muhammadu Buhari because I have confidence in him, he is not a corrupt leader, and he is going to stabilise the Nigerian economy, so let him continue.

I am not voting for any of them. They only care about their pocket and their family. I will sit back at home and take care of my children.

I am voting for Kingsley Moghalu because he has shown himself to be a youth of quality and he knows what is going on with us in Nigeria and he has proved that with facts and data, most importantly. He has shown data as to why he needs to be president and I think he has awesome ideas to move the country forward.

I am voting for Atiku because he is someone who has Nigeria at heart.

I am voting for Atiku Abubakar because I feel the economy is in a downfall and there is a lot of poverty, hunger and unemployment in the nation right now, so we need somebody to elevate us from that situation.

Buhari is prepared to fix this country and he has my vote. I dont care about the way he is portrayed in the media, I love him.

NYPD commander being investigated for threatening rapper 50 Cents life � p0lice sources New York D - Duration: 4:21.

NYPD commander being investigated for threatening rapper 50 Cents life — p0lice sources New York D

He wanted his cops to Get the strap — and take out 50 Cent.

A Brooklyn precinct commander is being investigated by the NYPD for allegedly threatening the celebritys life — telling his officers at a roll call to shoot him on sight, the Daily News has learned.

Deputy Inspector Emanuel Gonzalez, the commanding officer of the 72nd Precinct in Sunset Park, allegedly made the threat last June 7, when the actor and In Da Club rapper was expected to attend an NYPD sanctioned boxing match in the Bronx.

During a roll call inside the 72nd Precinct stationhouse, Gonzalez told his officers if they saw 50 Cent at the boxing match, known as a smoker, they should shoot him on sight, a source with knowledge of the case said.

The inspector just said that at roll call, the source said. Im like WTF.

No one recorded the incident, and Gonzalez tried to pass off the bizarre order as a joke. But the matter made its way to police headquarters, which launched a probe.

The incident is under internal review, a department spokesman said.

A source said the Internal Affairs Bureaus Group 1 — which handles police corruption cases for captains and above — is investigating.

Gonzalez, who will be celebrating his 30th anniversary with the department later this year, remains on active duty, officials said.

Adding weight to the IAB investigation is that the alleged threat came at a time Gonzalez had an ongoing beef with the rapper, whose given name is Curtis Jackson.

A month before the roll call, Gonzalez filed an aggravated harassment complaint, claiming 50 Cent threatened him on Instagram.

The entertainer was commenting on a lawsuit first reported in the Daily News accusing Gonzalez of shaking down the owner of the Sunset Park club Love and Lust — one of 50 Cents favorite haunts — when he wrote Get the strap, a slang term for get a gun.

In the complaint he filed in the department, Gonzalez said several of 50 Cents 18 million followers responded with their own threats against the precinct leader, including F k this commander and Blast this fool, leaving him in fear of his safety.

The rapper ultimately took down the Instagram post. The department investigated Gonzalezs complaint, but no charges were filed.

A rep for 50 Cent said the Grammy winner had just heard about Gonzalezs shoot on sight comment.

Mr. Jackson takes this threat very seriously and is consulting with his legal counsel regarding his options going forward, the rep said. He is concerned that he was not previously advised of this threat by the NYPD and even more concerned that Gonzalez continues to carry a badge and a gun.

Gonzalez by Love Lust owner Imran Star Jairam for demanding 11 free round trip tickets to Puerto Rico and a generator for a doctor after Hurricane Maria devastated the island.

When Jairam denied Gonzalezs request, the precinct hammered the club with violations. As a result, Love Lust lost its liquor licence and shut down, the owner claimed in court papers.

When reached Saturday, Jairam said Gonzalez should be stripped of his badge.

This just shows his personality, Jairam said. This is a guy who should be protecting us, he continued.

If proven true, Gonzalezs alleged order had the complete opposite effect, sources with knowledge of the case said.

Instead of harming 50 Cent, spectators cheered him on, yelling Get the Strap as he sat next to Jairams attorney Eric Sanders at the New York Expo Center in the Bronx. He was even asked to come up and comment on the matches.

I always knew that a flea has more integrity than Gonzalez, Sanders said when asked about the investigation into the alleged threat. Now we can add unhinged to this clowns horrible reputation.

When is the PC going to finally clip his wings? Sanders asked.

Attempts to reach Gonzalez were unsuccessful. Roy Richter, the president of the Captains Benevolent Association, did not return a request for comment.

17). More disturbingly, the statement attending a NYPD sanctioned boxing match in the Bronx

One source for the outlet recalled the incident saying, "The inspector just said that at roll call

I'm like WTF. " Gonzalez and 50 had a bit of history before the roll call incident

A month ago, Gonzalez filed an aggravated harassment complaint against 50 cents, claiming the rapper had threatened him on Instagram

He cited 50's use of the term "Get the strap" in reference to the commander shaking down two of the rapper's favorite night spots

So he claimed 50's followers harassed and threatened him in the complaint. 50 finally took the post and no charges were filed

Gonzalez has said his statement was a joke. TMZ has been learned by Fif may be contemplating taking legal action

The rapper's tell the site, "Mr. Jackson is taking this threat very seriously and is consulting his legal counsel regarding his options

" He is concerned that he has not yet advised this threat by the NYPD and even more concerned that Gonzalez continues to carry a badge and a gun

" 50 has so to the news via social media. "This is how I wake up this morning," This guy is a dirty cop abusing his POWER, "he captioned a photo of the article

Cuba holiday is stuff of nightmares for family who arrive to find filthy toilets and a green pool - Duration: 8:12.

Cuba holiday is stuff of nightmares for family who arrive to find filthy toilets and a green pool

A family were left disgusted when their all inclusive £10,000 holiday to Cuba became the stuff of nightmares after finding filthy toilets, stained towels, broken furniture and a swimming pool with green scum.

Gayle Evans left in tears after her stay at the four star Brisas del Caribe in Varadero for her 50th birthday with husband Steve, daughters Ayla, 19, and Gabby, 12, and son Jaz and his girlfriend Laura, both 23.

It was the familys first every holiday abroad together and the brochure promised them a luxury resort overlooking a stunning beach in a popular Atlantic resort.

But they were far from impressed when they arrived at the beach hotel and five out of six of them caught a stomach bug during their stay.

The Evans family from Stourport in Worcestershire booked their dream holiday to Cuba for mother Gayles 50th birthday

It was their first ever holiday abroad together and they were left far from impressed with the standard of accommodation including this green swimming pool

The holiday cost the family £10,000 but five of them had stomach bugs during their stay and they were unhappy with the state of the bathroom facilities

Mrs Evans said: I just burst into tears. It was awful.

I could not believe how bad it was.

The holiday cost the family more than £10,000 and it was their first ever holiday abroad together.

Mrs Evans, a teaching support worker at a primary school, said: We wanted a really special time away together.

My children are growing up and I knew it was probably the last chance to be away as a family.

We spent weeks dreaming about it, of lying on the gorgeous beach and paddling in the sea, splashing in the pools, sipping cocktails in the piano bar, we thought it was going to be wonderful.

But the familys dream soon turned into their nightmare as they realised their holiday was not what was initially promised.

She said: The hotel was in a state of decay, it looked like it was not really open.

The four star all inclusive hotel in Varadero promised cocktail bars, swimming pools and stunning views

Many services were not in use and Mrs Evans said it looked like the resort was not really open

In our room there were exposed electrics and one of the clean towels had a dirty brown mark across it.

There was litter everywhere, the pools had green scum on the surface and there was broken furniture and beach beds.

None of the bars served cocktails, and the piano bar and other parts of the complex were closed the whole time we were there.

To top it off everyone except me had upset stomachs during the holiday and my youngest daughter was very ill on the flight home.

The family submitted their many complaints to their tour representative on the first day of their holiday and asked for a move to another hotel.

But they were told there was nowhere of better quality than where they already were.

The family said the holiday was the stuff of nightmares with crumbling paths one of many complaints during her stay

Each member of the family was offered £100 as a voucher off any future break with The Holiday Place

The hotel has a 3.5/5 star rating on TripAdvisor but Mrs Evans said she burst into tears when she arrived at the resort

Mrs Evans said: We felt £10,000 was more than enough to pay to expect a decent standard.

Even allowing for different standards in poorer countries, this was not what we paid for.

It is a beautiful resort and if our hotel had been what we were expecting it would have been a really memorable week.

But we were counting down the days to come home.

My husband Steve felt hed let me down and felt really guilty, it really affected all of us.

The holiday company the family used, The Holiday Place, offered each member of the family a £100 voucher off any future break with the company as a goodwill gesture.

They also referred the family to terms and conditions stating visitors should not expect UK standards based on star ratings, but the relative norm for the area.

Mrs Evans said: Im not knocking Cuba at all, we loved spending a couple of days in Havana before going to this hotel, and the beach was everything we wanted.

But the hotel was the stuff of nightmares.

The hotel has an average rating of 3.5/5 on TripAdvisor and is described as very good.

But three successive reviews describe it as very disappointing, a disgusting place and service has gone to hell.

The Holiday Place said it takes all comments and feedback seriously and fully investigates each case.

It has been in contact with the family and is dealing with them directly.

If the hotel is not what you expected, youve got no protection by law in most cases and travel insurance almost certainly wont cover you.

However, if you booked it as part of a package, the tour operator is obliged to describe the hotel accurately under the Package Travel Regulations.

Money saving expert Martin Lewis recommends taking photos of your holiday experience as evidence

If it doesnt, youre entitled to compensation.

If it wasnt a package, you could complain to the hotel or travel agent.

They may do something if they agree with you or if they simply want to keep you sweet particularly given how sensitive hotels are to bad reviews.

Outline exactly what the issues were.

Your complaint is also likely to be stronger if you do it as soon as the problems arise.

Taking photos as evidence will also be helpful.

And if the firm you booked with is an ABTA member, any accommodation must meet certain basic standards.

So you could ask ABTA to step in if you get nowhere, though theres no guarantee of success.

Ted Cruz has a better chance of paying for the wall than drug lord El Chapo, attorney says Politic - Duration: 1:21.

Ted Cruz has a better chance of paying for the wall than drug lord El Chapo, attorney says Politic

Guzman was , including engaging in a continuing criminal enterprise. has proposed several times that El Chapo pay for a border wall, in The Washington Post last week.

In a response to the piece, El Chapos attorney, Jeffrey Lichtman, said that is unlikely to happen.

"Sen. Cruz surely knows that the government has seized none not a penny of Mr. Guzmans assets so getting him to pay for the wall is ludicrous," Lichtman said Sunday. "Theres a better chance of Mr. Cruz paying for the wall."

He declined to comment on Guzmans assets.

Propertys believed worth as high as dollar 14 billion

The leader of the violent Sinaloa drug cartel faces a mandatory life sentence. Federal prosecutors also plan to seek a forfeiture judgment for the property Guzman gained from drug trafficking. The value of that property is believed to be as high as dollar 14 billion.

After Guzmans conviction Tuesday, Cruz renewed calls to use the money for border security.

"U.S. prosecutors are seeking dollar 14 billion in drug profits and other assets from El Chapo which should go towards funding our wall to SecureTheBorder," the Texas Republican wrote on Twitter. "Its time to pass my EL CHAPO Act. I urge my Senate colleagues to take swift action on this crucial legislation."

Cruz originally introduced the in April 2017. It would reserve any "illegally obtained profits resulting from any criminal drug trafficking enterprise led by Joaquin Archivaldo Guzman Loera" for border security measures, which could include a wall. This includes any funds forfeited by Guzman in this case or future cases involving his former associates.

Cruz reintroduced the bill last month.

"By leveraging any criminally forfeited assets of El Chapo and other murderous drug lords, we can offset the cost of securing our border and make meaningful progress toward delivering on the promises made to the American people," Cruz said in a .

is continuing his swing through New Hampshire. Sen. Amy Klobuchar of Minnesota is set to visit Iowa. And Sen. Elizabeth Warren of Massachusetts plans to be in Nevada, the first Western state to vote in the primary.

Democratic presidential candidates are courting voters in states with influential early roles in the 2020 primary as the busy pace of campaigning over the holiday weekend shows that the contest to challenge President Donald Trump is fully underway.

The brisk pace of the candidates stops Sunday in New Hampshire, Iowa and Nevada points to the up for grabs state of the race in its early stages. And Congress Presidents Day recess gives the senators already running some extra time to promote their agendas.

Booker told voters on Saturday there are a lot of pathways would be a step in the right direction.

A backer of Medicare for all, Booker said the ideas proponents are going to have to find ways to advance the ball given the Congress that we have as they work to win support.

Klobuchar, after appearances in Minnesota and Wisconsin, is taking her case for Midwestern neighborly appeal to the state that opens voting with its caucuses.

Warren heads to the West after campaigning in the South on Saturday. She met with an estimated 800 voters in Greenville, South Carolina, before heading to Georgia for an early appearance that signals Democratic hopes to make inroads in the South.

Sen. Kamala Harris of California is due in New Hampshire on Monday following a two day stop in South Carolina. At a town hall in West Columbia on Saturday, Harris said she believes this moment is a time that we need fighters on stage who know how to fight — I do — and who have a proven desire to lead.

Three high profile potential candidates — former Vice President Joe Biden, Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders and former Texas Rep. Beto ORourke — remain on the sidelines for now.

Why Joe Biden shouldnt run for president opinion - Duration: 2:40.

Why Joe Biden shouldnt run for president opinion

Thus far, what has been most remarkable is how diverse the field is shaping up to be. This is not your traditional slate of Democratic candidates. Kamala Harris, Amy Klobuchar, Cory Booker, Julian Castro, Peter Buttigieg, Tulsi Gabbard, Elizabeth Warren, Andrew Yang and several others are already up and running. And more are likely to follow.

The composition of the Democratic field represents the diversity of the country. With so many serious frontrunners who are not, for a change, older white men, the Democrats are showing that they are a party representing the future of the country. In contrast to the kind of rhetoric that has come from President Donald Trump, an ode to the whiteness and masculinity of a limited American political tradition, the Democrats are making a strong statement about what their party is all about.

And their opening speeches reflect that reality as well. They have revolved around issues such as racial justice, gender equity, immigration rights and more. Even a candidate like Sen. Amy Klobuchar, who is being tagged as the "moderate" with bipartisan appeal, : "Stop the fear mongering and stop the hate. We may come from different places. We may pray in different ways. We may look different. And love different. But all live in the same country of shared dreams."

Then comes Biden. The former vice president has every right to run and certainly has a great deal to offer. During his career in the Senate and in the White House, Biden was a strong champion of the middle class. He pushed for the kinds of policies that Trump, despite all his promises to the forgotten Americans, never pursued. As vice president, he headed the , which championed policies such as capping student loan payments and improving retirement security. He of President Barack Obama on the issue of same sex marriage.

Also, as an older white male who would be 78 years old in January 2021 , there are a number of Democrats who see him as the "safe choice," the only person who will be able to withstand the Presidents testosterone filled campaign. And that right now most believe he would do best in a matchup against the President.

But is Biden really the best answer for the party? There is good reason for Democrats to be skeptical and to consider supporting other candidates.

Most problematic is the fact that Biden has run for the presidency several times, and each time he has struggled under the intense spotlight. When it comes time to hit the campaign trail, Biden has never been able to generate the level of support that is necessary to win. His tendency to has also hurt him. And, in our frenzied news cycle with endless outlets and few filters on information, Bidens style will cause problems again.

Of course, these issues didnt stop Trump in 2016. But unlike Trump, it is unclear that without a comparable partisan media outlet Fox News and unyielding partisan loyalty, that Biden would survive. While MSNBC could offer a boost to Biden, social scientists that the conservative media has a much stronger hold on conservative viewers than liberal outlets. Conservatives also tend to be more ideologically homogenous and loyal than their counterparts on the left. In other words, Democrats have seen the challenges that the "inevitable" frontrunner faces, as the election actually takes shape.

More important, though, is the moment in which we are living. Trump has run a political operation from the White House that has revolved around a vision of white nationalism that challenges the values of pluralism, diversity and inclusion. His statement after Charlottesville forever marked his term in office. And the Presidents perpetual struggle to build a wall perfectly captures what he hopes to achieve with his central goal being about keeping people out rather than bringing them in.

With so many strong candidates already lined up to run in the Democratic primaries, many of whom who have launched their runs with the kind of gravitas and excitement that bodes well for a presidential campaign, there is a risk of someone like Biden being in the race someone with the potential to suck up all the oxygen in the room. "Uncle Joe" could quickly take away media attention and campaign funds from Democrats who would perform better in the general election. If Biden was the nominee, he would also throw cold water on the excitement and energy that exists among younger Democrats about the direction of their party.

The Democrats should not assume that an older, moderate white man is inevitably the strongest candidate. Even Bernie Sanders offers a fresh perspective with his left of center, Democratic Socialist positions he would also be notable as a Jewish American nominee . It is possible to see the virtue of a ticket that embodies diversity from the top down. All of the candidates who are currently running would enable the Democrats to showcase the difference in what the party represents compared to the GOP. As a in The New York Times shows, the GOP is bleeding young voters with each passing day of the Trump presidency.

With Biden at the top of the ticket, it would be much more difficult to generate enthusiasm among African Americans, Latinos or younger voters, for instance, who will be looking to Democrats to prove that they will offer something fundamentally different. While there are substantial numbers of African Americans backing Biden and Sanders, these dont measure the excitement that might be generated on the campaign trail once the other candidates are better known and once their political skills have been proven.

And Bidens pivotal role on the 1994 Violent Crime Control Act, which was foundational to the expansion of the mass incarceration system, will come back to haunt him. Like Hillary Clinton, he will have to reckon with his vote authorizing President George W. Bush to use military force in Iraq, baggage that the younger generation of Democrats wont be carrying onto the campaign trail.

Meanwhile, many educated, suburban women are looking for a candidate who will take seriously the message of the metoo movement. This is a social movement that has rocked American society, bringing attention to the horrendous ways in which sexism and sexual assault continue to play out in many of our major industries and in our private lives. They wont be happy to hear about his role in the 1991 Clarence Thomas hearings, where he was one of the many senators who did not take seriously the sexual harassment complaints of Anita Hill. He was part of the reason that 1992 saw a surge in female candidates.

The most successful Democrat in recent decades was Barack Obama, who mobilized a powerful electoral coalition because of the change he represented for the Democratic Party not because he was the partys safe choice.

Of course, Biden has a right to run should he so choose. But before Democrats go overboard in shifting their financial and organizational resources, as well as endorsements, to the former vice president, they should think long and hard about whether they want the face of their party to be someone who represents the past or the future.

JGR Toyota tipped for Chevy help in Daytona 500 - Duration: 5:27.

Asked if he was going to need help from other traffic to win today's Daytona 500, the #11 JGR FedEx Toyota driver replied, "For sure

You're going to need help from somebody. "There's advantages and disadvantages to having less Toyota cars

Most of the time it's more of an advantage to having fewer Toyota cars because the information is kept within a tighter group

We're all within the JGR organization so on a weekly basis we always feel like we have an advantage

The information isn't getting spread out among three different race teams. "The downside is when you come to races like these where you have drafting and things like that, you're outnumbered so you're facing up against 12 Fords, 12 Chevrolets and you've got just a handful of Toyotas

"Not to give away too much but I think today we're going to catch some people by surprise and perhaps link up with a manufacturer and gang up on another manufacturer

" When asked if that would mean help from Chevrolet, Hamlin replied "Maybe, maybe…" Hamlin addressed the worries over the nature of the single-file racing that's been seen thus far at Daytona this year and said it was not a result of the current rules package

"They're watching too much TV and thinking that's the way they should do it," he smiled

"It's just they realize racing early in the race and being aggressive and running two- or three-wide on Lap 3 doesn't get them to the finish

You're trying to get to Lap 60 for the first stage, Lap 120 for the second, and trying to get to 200 for the end

"All that in between, you can move up and forward so quickly that people just realized that this [the high line] is the safest place to be

Even if you're in eighth place, you think, 'I can win from here as long as I'm not tore up,' so people are just being more and more conservative to try and get to the end

" Hamlin explained that his race in the Duel earlier in the week, when he was diving to the bottom line was simply his efforts to investigate various scenarios

"I was just trying to learn that if I do get back in that 'top train', how do I get a run and then get back in line

You constantly want to pick cars off one by one. If no one's going to help you, you need to figure out how you can drag that car in front of you back, get beside him and then pull up in front of him before that hole closes

"So I was just learning how much of a run you need to get, how close to the side of him do I need to get to pull him back

Information that I'll use today." Hamlin says that the primary difference between the Daytona 500 now compared with when he started is the nature and behavior of the drivers

"The drivers are smarter – that's the biggest thing I've noticed," he replied. "It's just like any other sport: they start younger and they have more information, so the competition gets better and better all the time

"Any kinda gap in information that somebody finds something in, it spreads through the garage so quickly

Like I say, it's just like any other sport where it's hard to find an edge. If you find something really small, you can exploit it

"Any one of the top 20 drivers now could win the race from 15 years ago, easily, simply because they know so much more

They know every inch of the car and where to place themselves to be in optimal air

You just have to do it and be smarter than the rest of them. Half of it is mental, half of it is the physical side

Minister says PM might not ask for Brexit Withdrawal Agreement to be reopened - News Live - Duration: 5:09.

The Prime Minister may not seek to reopen the Brexit Withdrawal Agreement to make changes to the controversial Irish backstop, a Cabinet minister has suggested

Jeremy Wright implied the insurance policy to prevent a hard border could be amended via a codicil, saying the "objective" mattered more than the "mechanism"

But the Brexit-supporting European Research Group within the Tory party have already indicated they won't support a deal which relies on a codicil or addendum to impose a time limit or allow the UK to exit the backstop unilaterally

Mr Wright's controversial comments came hours after Theresa May wrote to Tory MPs assuring them the Government would continue its work to secure changes to the backstop, as she pleaded with them to unite and deliver on Brexit

Mr Wright told the BBC's Andrew Marr Show: "I think what's obvious is that Parliament, and I think probably people well beyond Parliament, are concerned about the potential indefinite nature of the backstop - that's what we've got to do something about

"If this is the only way of doing it then that's the way we will pursue. If there are other ways of doing it that are just as effective that perhaps we haven't yet explored then we will do that too

" He continued: "I don't think it's the mechanism that matters, it's the objective: if you can get to a place where the potential longevity of the backstop, the potential that the backstop lasts forever can be adequately dealt with, that's what we're all It On Friday a Number 10 Spokeswoman insisted that the Prime Minister was seeking to reopen the agreement to change its wording

She said: "We have said we are seeking legally binding changes to the backstop which is contained within the Withdrawal Agreement

" Former Brexit minister Steve Baker has told colleagues Mrs May's Brexit negotiations with Brussels were a "complete waste of time"

He said of the backstop: "Only a treaty-level clause which confers an unconditional right on the UK to exit the backstop would work

" Meanwhile Defence Minister Tobias Ellwood urged the Government to allow a free vote on ruling out a no-deal Brexit at the end of the month if Mrs May cannot get her deal through the Commons

He told BBC Radio 5 Live's Pienaar's Politics he would support such a vote, saying: "I will intend to do that

I hope I will not be tested in that way. "I hope that we will either get the meaningful vote through or indeed measures are taken which will then allow people like myself to then express those through a free vote

" Brexit Minister Chris Heaton-Harris has insisted the Government is not trying to run down the clock on Brexit

He dismissed suggestions that the negotiations are a "complete waste of time", and said there was a "huge amount of activity" between the UK and Brussels

Mr Heaton-Harris told Sky News: "The Government is not trying to run the clock down

The Government is trying to get a negotiated deal with our European partners." On Saturday, Mrs May urged her party to "move beyond what divides us" and sacrifice "personal preferences" for the national interest

After another tumultuous week in Westminster which saw tensions in the party reach boiling point, Mrs May used a letter to all 317 Conservative MPs to warn them: "History will judge us all for the parts we have played in this process

" She said: "I believe that a country with our innate strengths, enviable resources, and enormous talent can face the future with confidence that our best days lie ahead

But we stand now at a crucial moment. "I do not underestimate how deeply or how sincerely colleagues hold the views which they do on this important issue - or that we are all motivated by a common desire to do what is best for our country, even if we disagree on the means of doing so

"But I believe that a failure to make the compromises necessary to reach and take through Parliament a Withdrawal Agreement which delivers on the result of the referendum will let down the people who sent us to represent them and risk the bright future that they all deserve

" The Prime Minister will return to Brussels for further talks with European Commission president Jean-Claude Juncker this week, and intends to speak to the leaders of every EU member state over the coming days

Meanwhile, Brexit Secretary Stephen Barclay will meet the EU's chief negotiator Michel Barnier on Monday to discuss the proposals of the Alternative Arrangements Working Group of Tories, who have been seeking a compromise solution to avoid the need for backstop

And Attorney General Geoffrey Cox will set out what changes would be required to eliminate the legal risk of being indefinitely trapped in the controversial Irish backstop in a speech on Tuesday
