Happy New Year


Sydney New Year's Eve 2015




Australia and New Zealand are the first 2 countries to usher in the year 2015. The Auckland Sky Tower clock counted down the minutes until its midnight. But in Indonesia because of the AirAsia crash the celebration was low key. In Brazil a million lined the Copacabana beach to celebrate.

Alan Sugar causes racism row with his sand beach tweet and replied his critics to go to hell

Image
   Sir Alan Sugar has sparked a racism row with a tweet about Ian wright's suit. The former Arsenal star, 56, appeared on the BBC yesterday wearing a sand-coloured jacket and matching trousers during the televised Fa Cup final between Arsenal and Chelsea.
