The UK is bringing in a major new smoking law that could mean anyone born after 2009 will never legally be able to buy ci******es. The government says it’s about creating a smoke-free generation, but while many welcome the move, others are questioning how effective a ban like this will really be.

Do people still care about Iran?
Persian families in Cardiff say they still can’t contact their loved ones in Iran because of the internet blackout.
Ashkan Amidi, an Iranian barber in Cardiff City Centre, says he finds the continuing lack of contact with his family back home difficult. He’s far from the only one.
2,000 Iranians live in Wales, with many feeling the pain of being unable to contact family members.
Two months since Iranians in Cardiff took to the streets to celebrate the death of the Ayatollah, Iranians here say they feel forgotten. They say the world’s media is focusing on the struggle between Trump and the regime in Tehran while their pain continues.

Are you worried that your bicycle will be stolen?🚴

In order to make cyclists feel more confident, Cardiff Council is planning to build the second phase of secure bicycle lockers. 36 will be in the city centre, and an additional 50 are in the wider area. These lockers are solar-powered and don’t require a Wi-Fi connection. The council say they are the only smart lockers with the highest security rating in the UK!

The new lockers will be available by the end of April. These secure parking spots will cost 1.5 pounds per day, 7.5 pounds per week, and 20 pounds per month.
