Dutch referee Rob Dieperink dies weeks after removal from World Cup officiating list Dutch referee Rob Dieperink has died at the age of 38, weeks after FIFA removed him from its list of officials for the World Cup. The Dutch Football Association (KNVB) confirmed his death in a statement, saying it was “shocked and deeply saddened” by the news. His cause of death has not been disclosed. Dieperink was arrested in April by the Metropolitan Police in the United Kingdom following a report of an alleged sexual assault involving a teenage boy in London. A Metropolitan Police spokesperson said officers responded on April 9 to a report of sexual assault at an address in Croydon and arrested a man in his 30s on suspicion of the offence. Police later said that after reviewing available evidence, including CCTV footage and digital devices, the investigation had concluded that “the evidential threshold had not been met” and no further action would be taken.

According to sources,Australians working in Britain may not be able to stay there indefinitely if they are on a lower income,under new rules due to kick in this year.The changes,which take effect from April will mean non-European workers will have to earn at least £35,000 {$72,000} a year to be allowed to settle in the UK for longer than six years.The visa move,which was first flagged in 2012,will apply to those outside the European Economic zone in a bid to break the link between working and staying permanently in Britain.It follows David Cameron government push to reduce migration numbers,with estimates the numbers of non-European skilled workers settling in Britain each year would drop from 60,000 to 20,000 under the change.Along with Indians and Americans,Australians make up the top nationalities given work visas in Britain.About 17,250 of the visas were given to Australians in 2014,but more than 12,300 of these went Australians under 30,who are on the two year youth mobility scheme.Today wednesday,a spokeswoman for Australia's Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade said Australia had made representations to the British government on the changes to its migration system.This included making a submission to a review into the visa changes in September last year.''The Australian submission noted that further restricting the Tier 2 visa {which involves the £35,000 rule} had the potential to advrsely affect the commercial interests of both countries,businesses and investors and consequently the economic interests both Australia and the UK,and could impact on people to people links''.The visa change is also generating opposition in Britain,amid concerns that it will force skilled graduates,teachers,health and charity workers to the leave the country.A petition against the change,lodged with the British Parliament,has so far generated more than 70,000 signatures.''This ridiculous measure is only going to affect 40,000 people who have already been living and working in the UK for 5 years,contributing to our culture and economy.It will drive more workers from the NHS {National Health Service} and people from their families.This empty gesture will barely affect the immigration statistics.IT's a waste of time,money and lives''.If the petition reaches 100,000 signatures,it is likely it will be debated by the Parliament.One more photo below.
