Smoking in vehicles in front of a child could soon carry a fine of up to £50.

High ground could see 4 inches of snow on Saturday night
Mountain Road unlikely to open before Monday
Yellow warning for freezing temperatures tonight
School bangers night called off
AK47 and Uzi handed in to police
"No dispute" over Liverpool Ferry Terminal, says main contractor
