Fungerende sjef for Reinpolitiet i påska, Magne Persen, opplyser til iFinnmark at de har planlagt kontroller både på dagtid, kveldstid og utover natten i påskeuka. – Vi har patruljer stasjonert i Tana, Karasjok, Kautokeino og Alta, som patruljerer i hele fylket, sier Persen til iFinnmark. Under kontrollene vil fokuset først og fremst være på bruk av påkrevd sikkerhetsutstyr, overholdelse av det lovlige løypenettet og forebygging mot ruskjøring. Hendelsen i et hyttefelt i Alta forrige helg er ikke årsaken til kontrollene som er planlagt. – Det er jo ikke noe nytt at det skjer i Bollo og Alta-området, så det har vi jo planlagt lenge før denne ulykka.

Norge og Pakistan har signert en ny klimaavtale som legger til rette for å kutte utslipp i Pakistan, som kan omgjøres til klimakvoter som Norge kan kjøpe. – Vi trenger mer internasjonalt samarbeid for å løse klimakrisen. Avtalen med Pakistan gjør at vi kan samarbeide om tiltak som kutter utslipp i Pakistan, sier klima- og miljøminister Andreas Bjelland Eriksen i en pressemelding. Avtalen vil også bidra til å utløse private investeringer og skape grønne arbeidsplasser i Pakistan. – Dette vil i tillegg også bidra til at Norge når sitt klimamål for 2030 dersom EU-samarbeidet ikke tar oss helt til mål, mener Eriksen. Utslippsreduksjonene skal være varige og vil etter noen år kunne telles mot Pakistans klimamål. (NTB)

Some European countries have blocked Israeli and US planes from moving weapons through their airspace. Plus, a rocket heads to the moon on Wednesday for the first time since 1972 Good morning. Donald Trump has launched a tirade against European countries that refused to join the Israel-US war against Iran, calling out the UK and France, as transatlantic relations continue their downward spiral and the war wreaks havoc on the global economy. What pushback has there been from Europe? France has blocked Israeli planes from flying weapons through its airspace, while Italy refused last-minute permission for US bombers to land in Sicily. Spain has already denied the US use of its bases and airspace. The UK, however, has allowed the US to use its bases for a war that its government says is illegal.

for 2 timeer sidenTrump to attend supreme court arguments on landmark birthright citizenship case - US politics live
Court case will weigh the constitutionality of his contentious bid to end birthright citizenship President Donald Trump will watch the US supreme court hear a landmark case today weighing the constitutionality of his contentious bid to end birthright citizenship – an extraordinary and possibly unprecedented move for the nation’s highest office. Trump signed an executive order on his return to the White House decreeing that children born to parents in the United States illegally or on temporary visas would not automatically become US citizens. Trump signed an executive order seeking to restrict mail-in voting across the US with a series of new requirements, including the establishment of a national voter list. The move was unprecedented and likely unconstitutional, according to experts. The Brennan Center said in response, “He has no lawful authority to write the rules that govern our elections. He tried a year ago; we sued him; we won. A year later, he has tried again. He can expect the same result.” Several states and Democratic officials criticized the order, describing it as an illegal attack that amounted to voter suppression ahead of the midterms, and said they will take legal action to stop the president, including California. Trump continued to fume over today’s ruling from a US judge that halted the construction of his $400m White House ballroom, and sharply criticized the decision during a press briefing and on social media. Pete Hegseth lifted the suspension of the crew of the military helicopters that hovered near the home of singer Kid Rock, and said there would be no investigation. Continue reading...

Chancellor says the government is looking at ways they can support people based on household income Good morning. Keir Starmer is giving a press conference this morning where, according to No 10, he will discuss the Iran war, and how the government is supporting people at home. Now we are in April, the new financial year is starting, and the government is highlighting measures it has introduced that will help people with the cost of living. The Conservatives have an alternative list, and they are claiming this morning that “Keir Starmer and his chancellor have piled on extra costs leaving families almost £1,000 worse off this year”. The chancellor, Rachel Reeves, has been doing her own media too. She is on the Jeremy Vine show later, but she has already given an interview to BBC Breakfast in which she gave a marginally clearer idea of what she is planning to do to help people with energy bills than she did when she made a statement to MPs last week. From July to September, gas usage, especially by families and pensioners, is the lowest of any months of the year because it is the summer months … It will be really from the autumn onwards that people’s gas usage starts increasing. So at the moment we are working on a range of contingencies. And we are looking at more targeted measures. We are looking at ways we can support people based on their household income. I want to learn the lessons of the past because when Russia invaded Ukraine, the richest, the best-off third of households got more than a third of the support. That makes no sense at all.

for 6 timeer sidenFørste gjengkriminelle utvist uten dom i Norge
For første gang har politiet utvist en utenlandsk borger fra Norge uten at vedkommende er dømt i en norsk domstol, skriver VG. Utvisningen skjedde 20. februar i år. Bakgrunnen er en ny instruks fra Justis- og beredskapsdepartementet som kom 23. januar. Den gir politiet utvidet handlingsrom til å utvise utenlandske statsborgere som ikke er dømt i Norge, men som vurderes som en ekstraordinær kriminalitetstrussel på grunn av tilknytning til kriminelle nettverk. Den utenlandsk borgeren var under etterforskning for et tosifret antall straffesaker i Norge, blant annet for flere grove trusler. Han har også en omfattende straffehistorikk fra Sverige. Bare i fjor ble 58 personer utvist fra Norge for å ha vært tilknyttet kriminelle nettverk. Alle disse var derimot domfelt i Norge. Politiet har som mål å utvise minst like mange kriminelle fra Norge i år, ifølge VG.

To utenlandske menn i slutten av 30-årene ble lørdag kveld pågrepet og siktet for to tilfeller av grovt tyveri fra en miljøstasjon. Mennene er nå varetektsfengslet i fire uker i Hedmarken og Østerdal tingrett. Selv om de to har erkjent straffskyld, mener de at de kun er skyldige i simpelt tyveri og ikke grovt tyveri. Retten mener derimot at det er overveiende sannsynlig at mennene er mobile vinningskriminelle. I kjennelsen står det at tyveriene bærer preg av å være planmessige, målrettede og profesjonelle. Ingen av de siktede har tilknytning til Norge, og begge hevder de kom til landet for å søke arbeid. Politiet har sikret videobevis av tyveriene.
