Robbery at Prada on Bond Street London


The store - situated in the prestigious district of Mayfair, opposite Gucci and in the proximity of London clubs Funky Buddha, Mahiki and HeyJo - is the flagship premises in London for the Italian fashion label.

The robbery appeared to have been a simple smash and grab that left the glass from the front door of the boutique shattered and scattered across the street as cold winter weather gripped the October night.

Police officers at the scene of the crime appeared to be clueless although no doubt they will announce investigations are ongoing at some stage on Thursday.

Females Have The Advantage In Downturn

Female job seekers, including those looking for London jobs , are benefiting from current labour market demands, it has been claimed. According to John Philpott, chief economist at the Chartered Institute of Personnel and Development, there was a quarterly increase in part-time employment for women for the three months ending in August. Mr Philpott suggested that this rise is due to a upturn in part-time employment and temporary jobs, which are often given to female workers. He commented: "Women are the main beneficiaries of a labour market where part-time work is rising while full-time jobs continue to be cut." The expert went on to say that the CIPD predicts the rate of male unemployment will exceed ten per cent in 2010.
