Oasis fans at Wembley gig where man died question alcohol use and security
Oasis fans who witnessed a fatal fall at Wembley stadium during a reunion concert on Saturday have questioned the security setup and the amount of alcohol being consumed in the stands. The Metropolitan police said a man in his 40s died after suffering injuries consistent with a fall at the end of the band's performance at about 10.19pm on Saturday night. On Monday, the Met announced that the Health and Safety Executive, the body which investigates accidents, had been informed. Witnesses who were 10 ft (3 metres) from where the man landed said he fell from the upper tier of Wembley's block 511, on to the aisle between block 211 and block 210. Emma, 40, from Liverpool, said the man landed next to a row behind her and her partner, Mike, only five seats away. 'I've been feeling awful ever since – I can't stop thinking about him,' she said. 'It happened directly behind our right shoulders. If he had fallen where someone was sitting, it would have killed both people.' Within seconds of the fall, several staff began trying to perform CPR on the man. Mike said: 'It's quite traumatic, seeing people just doing CPR on someone frantically. I haven't been able to focus on anything else.' Both Emma and Mike, who declined to give their full names, urged Wembley to review safety and alcohol sales at the stadium. Emma said: 'So much beer was being thrown throughout the whole concert. I was surprised they allowed people to bring drinks into the stands. It made the floor really slippy.' She added: 'They should put the security guard at the bottom of all the aisles too, and permanently station them there to stop people falling off.' Mike, who works in health and safety, said: 'Beer was coming from everywhere. I got hit by an empty cup right on the side of the head. If it had been full it would really have hurt. We started getting beer on us from the moment Oasis came on stage.' John, 52, a delivery driver from Oxford who also declined to give his full name, saw many fans leaning over the balcony from block 511. He said: 'There were loads of people who just kept going down to the front and leaning right over. One guy was stopped but after that no security came down. The security was so lax. There's a rail and a small guard but it did make me think someone could quite easily get knocked off there.' John added: 'It seemed unsafe. If they'd have actually posted a security guard at the bottom of those steps, where people were continually going, it would prevented the fall.' He was also surprised by the level of drinking at the gig. 'The amount of alcohol that was sold on the night was quite shocking. I constantly saw people with cardboard cup holders full of pints,' John said. Last week the Times revealed that Oasis fans were consuming an average of 250,000 pints a night during the Wembley gigs. Wembley Stadium has been approached for comment. In a statement on Sunday it said: 'The police have asked anyone who witnessed the incident to contact them.' Saturday's concert was the fourth of seven sold-out reunion gigs at Wembley Stadium. Despite the tragedy on Saturday, the fifth gig on Sunday went ahead as planned. The sixth and seventh gigs will be in September.

I won a lottery prize & quit my job – people say I'm stupid & it's less than some people's wage but I have a good reason
A LOTTO winner has revealed she's quit her job, despite raking in £120,000 in total. Olivia Love, who was previously on Universal Credit, scooped £10,000-a-month for a year alongside hubby Kevin last month. 5 5 The 36-year-old, from Glasgow, has been able to quit her job at a local supermarket, and hire a cleaner and gardener. Before this, the mum-of-four was earning just £800-a-month working in a supermarket's customer service kiosk. She was also on benefits to subsidise her eye-watering £1,800-a-month childcare costs and "dreaded" her council tax bill coming through. Olivia shared how numerous people have questioned why she decided to quit her job after winning just over £100,000 and have told her the decision is 'not wise'. However, she explained that without getting help from Universal Credits towards childcare, it made sense for her to do it herself and save £1,800. She hit back in a clip, saying: 'Listen, buddy, listen. I gave up my job. Yes, because I earned £800 a month without the Universal Credit element of getting the cost of childcare paid for then I'm working for nothing. 'I still have to pay my childcare costs of £1,800 a month. 'I'm sick and tired of having to explain this to people.' She shared how she hopes to start her own wedding content creation business, instead of just blowing through the money. Olivia added: 'That's using my weddings to change my life, to change my career. That's what I plan to do. I'm not gonna blow through the money and if you'd watched any of my videos you would know this. UK's youngest lottery winner splits with boyfriend and finds new love with gas engineer as they share snaps 'So what's not wise is to comment like this when you're not very well informed.' While some would be hesitant to broadcast the news, Olivia and her hubby Kevin have been speaking out about the life-changing prize in more detail on TikTok. Since going public with her win, Olivia has been giving social media users an inside peek at the life of a lottery winner. 5 However, she admitted that she's had some trolling about people - mainly men - who resent her win. In a TikTok clip (@mrsolivialove), she said: "When I won the lottery, I knew it would change my life. But I didn't expect how loud the internet would get. "With the win came judgement, assumptions and a lot of hate. Especially from men who can't stand to see a woman win. "Just for being proud of my life. For spreading hope and positivity. For being proud of what this win does for my children. LIFE-CHANGING MOMENT Set For Life offers a top prize of £10,000 a month for 30 years when the five main numbers and the Life Ball are matched. Players can also win £10,000 a month for a whole year by matching the five main numbers. Olivia revealed she did six lucky dips at £1.50 each on the app, with one of them bagging the second tier prize of the cash for a year. She's never played her own numbers, explaining: 'I've always had the fear that if you did play your own numbers the one time you didn't play it, that would be the time your numbers came in.' She was shocked when she received an email from The National Lottery team at 12.33am on May 16 June that changed everything for this couple. However, she said it has changed her life for the better, saying: 'I feel like I can be more present now. Enjoy more moments. 'The stress I felt before stopped me enjoying the little things.' With the win came judgement, assumptions and a lot of hate. Especially from men who can't stand to see a woman win Olivia Love Recently, she documented her family's "first holiday as lottery winners" to North Wales with their four kids and Kevin's parents. They hired a stunning four-bedroom 17th century farmhouse for the week and spent just £2,202.06 in total including car rental, food, and accommodation. The winning numbers in the draw were: 03, 27, 42, 45, 46, plus Life Ball 06. Before she won, she had been playing sporadically for four to five months and would play when she had the 'notion to do it.' And despite winning, she still hasn't stopped buying lucky dips 'from time to time.' DOWNSIDE While buying items like her hubby's car has brought her 'so much joy', there are some downsides to the winnings. Olivia has had people message her to beg for money, with one saying: 'Can I have like £20,000 to pay my debts off?' As a result, the Lottery winner said: "I've got my dms very closed.' Since going public with her win, Olivia has hilariously joked about wiping away fake tears with £20 notes in response to cruel comments from trolls. What are my chances of winning the lottery? EVERYONE wants to know how to beat the odds and win the lottery. But unfortunately, the lottery is a game of luck and there are no tips or tricks that can guarantee you'll take home a top prize. The odds show how likely you are to win any particular prize - the lower the number, the better the odds. For example, odds of 1 in 10 are better than odds of 1 in 100 or 1 in 1,000. There are several major lottery games in the UK including Lotto by the National Lottery, Camelot's EuroMillions and Thunderball. Chances of winning the Lotto Lotto by the National Lottery is a game where you pick six numbers from 1 to 59. You can play up to seven lines of numbers on each slip. The game costs £2 to play per slip. The odds of winning any prize on the Lotto are 1 in 9.3. But to win the jackpot on the Lotto, the odds are considerably slimmer. To bag the top prize, you need to have six matching balls. The odds of doing this and scooping the jackpot are currently 1 in 45,057,474. The next highest prize of £1,000,000 is for getting five main matching balls plus the bonus ball. The odds of taking home the million pound prize are 1 in 7,509,579 - far higher than the jackpot, but still unlikely. The odds of taking home £1,750 for getting five main numbers without the bonus ball are 1 in 2,180, while you have a 1 in 97 chance of bagging £140 for getting four main numbers. Your chances of taking home £30 for getting 3 main numbers are much better at 1 in 97. And you have a roughly 1 in 10 chance of getting a free lucky dip for 2 matching numbers. Chances of winning the EuroMillions The EuroMillions costs £2.50 to play and is open on Tuesdays and Fridays. To play, you must pick five numbers from 1-50 and two "Lucky Stars" from 1-12. Players with the most matching numbers win the top prizes. Your chance of bagging the EuroMillions jackpot is even slimmer than winning the top Lotto prize. This is because it generally has higher jackpots on offer, meaning it attracts more attention. Currently, the odds of matching five numbers and two lucky stars - the top win - stand at 1 in 139,838,160. The average jackpot prize is £57,923,499, according to EuroMillions. The odds of winning the second top prize for matching 5 balls and a lucky star, which is typically around £262,346, are 1 in 6,991,908. The chances of taking home the third prize for five matching balls, with an average payout of £26,277, are 1 in 3,107,515. For four matching balls with two lucky stars, it's 1 in 621,503, and for four balls with one lucky star, it's 1 in 31,076. These come with an average prize of £1,489 and £95, respectively. Chances of winning the Thunderball Thunderball is another game run by National Lottery where you pick five numbers and one "Thunderball". It costs just £1 to play and you can enter up to four times a week. The jackpot of £500,000 for matching five balls plus the Thunderball is 1 in 8,060,598. Your odds of bagging the next highest prize of £5,000 for matching five balls is currently 1 in 620,046, while the chances of winning £250 for four balls plus the Thunderball is 1 in 47,416. You have the best chance of winning £3 for matching the Thunderball, with odds of 1 in 29.
