London-based boxer Sherif Lawal has died after he collapsed in the ring during his professional debut on Sunday.

The 29-year-old was knocked down by Portuguese opponent Malam Varela in the fourth round of a middleweight bout at Harrow Leisure Centre.

Lawal received treatment from paramedics at the scene and was taken to hospital but later pronounced dead.
The British Boxing Board of Control said in a statement: "Condolences to the family of Sherif Lawal following his tragic passing.

"The thoughts of all those involved in boxing in Great Britain are with them at this difficult time."
Warren Boxing Management, who represented Lawal, added: "We would like to send our condolences to all of Sherif’s family, friends, coaches and all those close to him at this tragic time.”

Black mothers are over twice as likely to be admitted to hospital with perinatal mental illnesses than their white counterparts, a Guardian analysis of NHS figures shows, with the racial disparity being described as “horrifying”.

There were 777 admissions to NHS England hospitals of people with a primary diagnosis for puerperal mental disorders – occurring in the six weeks after childbirth – between 2020 and 2023. Of these, black women made up 12%, despite accounting for only 5% of deliveries in the same period.

They were also more than twice as likely to be admitted to hospital than their white counterparts, according to the analysis.

Several factors contributed to the ethnic disparities, including “structural inequality, with women from ethnic minorities on average being worse off socioeconomically, difficulties accessing services, and cultural attitudes towards mental illness”, said Dr Katie Merwick, a senior clinical research fellow and honorary consultant psychiatrist with NHS Lothian.

Single-sex toilets are set to become a legal requirement for all new bars, restaurants, offices and shopping centres under new laws proposed by the government.

Self-contained toilets for both sexes may be provided in addition to single-sex toilets, or if there isn't enough space.

Care homes, hotels, schools, cells in custodial facilities, and buildings used for early years provision are all exempt from the proposed legislation.

The law would affect England only and applies to new buildings as well as existing premises that undergo a material change of use.

The government said that in a consultation on the proposals, 81% of respondents agreed "with the intention for separate single-sex toilet facilities" while 82% "agreed with the intention to provide universal toilets where space allows".

Spot the difference!!

Shamima Begum has lost her latest bid to overturn a decision by the UK government to strip her British citizenship. The Court of Appeal ruling means she remains in Syria with no chance of return to the UK.
