Rangers FC will play in the Scottish Premier League from next season after beating Dumbarton 1-0 yesterday.

Terrorists may have taken advantage of the refugee crisis to enter the European Union in recent months, according to the European border force, Frontex.

10. Briefing: Brussels attacks 'didn't boost Brexit support'
Most Britons support keeping the UK in the European Union, according to the latest poll for the Daily Telegraph, which showed that 51 per cent will vote to stay in the EU in the June referendum, with 44 per cent in favour of leaving and 5 per cent still undecided. This represents a four per cent increase in support for the Remain campaign since last month's poll, a sign that David Cameron is "beginning to win the argument", says the Telegraph. The terror attacks in Brussels and the crisis in Britain's steel sector have so far had "little or no effect" on how people intend to vote.
