Liberty Speciality Steel withdrew a restructuring plan put before the courts just before a judge was due to decide if it could go ahead.

With a lack of agreement with key creditors, lawyers representing them have previously said it was unlikely to be sanctioned anyway due to the money owed.

After pulling its “Part 26A” restructuring plan, as reported by Global Restructuring Review, Liberty Speciality Steel, which has operations in Rotherham and Stocksbridge, is understood to be acting quickly to consider alternative options.

Rothbiz reported in April last year that Liberty had signed a new framework agreement with its major creditors that would enable it to consolidate its UK steel businesses “under a new entity with a simpler structure, a…

The Coalition is promising to let first-home buyers claim a tax deduction on the interest bill on their mortgage, subject to financial thresholds over five years, as well as offering the super-for-housing policy, but it has vowed to block the Labor policy to ease student debt.

Labor is offering to reduce all HECS debts by 20 per cent if it is returned to power, saying someone with the average debt – $27,600 – would have about $5250 wiped from their loan.

On housing, it offers first-home buyers a government guarantee so they can buy their first home with a 5 per cent deposit, as well as a $10 billion plan to encourage more housing construction.

Labor is acting on government data, prepared before the election, that shows more than three…

A young professional in her twenties, Shweta (name changed), fell into the world of online money games after seeing an advertisement on social media. What started as casual gaming escalated into an addiction that led her to borrow heavily, attempt suicide, and undergo weeks of recovery at a Mumbai hospital, a TOI report by Nitasha Natu stated. Her case sheds light on the growing concerns around online casino gaming in India.

The slippery start into online gambling

Shweta began playing online casino games last year, attracted by flashy social media ads offering slots, sports betting, and live dealer games. With just ₹5,000, she won ₹2 lakh in her early days of gaming. “I remember spending just Rs 5,000 and winning as much as Rs 2…
