He said of the naysayers: "I am confident, [and] I know for a fact that some of them wonder aloud now whether that was a prudent vote."The bill would have extended FBI monitoring to all gun sales, including those made privately at gun shows or on the internet. Though it received 54 votes in favour, it failed to reach the 60 votes needed to avoid a filibuster, leading President Obama to denounce the 17 April vote as a "shameful day in Washington"."We got a majority but not the super-majority we needed. We will get it. We will be back," Biden said.Biden refused to name those senators who he claimed were having a change of heart. But the renewed impetus from the White House coincides with a major push from gun control groups to secure a second Senate vote, with much of the pressure being applied to the four Democratic senators who voted against the bill: Max Baucus of Montana, Mark Begich of Alaska, Heidi Heitkamp of North Dakota and Mark Pryor of Arkansas.Mayors Against Illegal Guns, the coalition led by New York's Michael Bloomberg, last week launched a 100-day bus tour across America. The tour will pass through 25 states, focusing on those of the recalcitrant senators including the four Democrats.While most political attention is fixed on the balance of power within the Senate on the gun issue, Biden tried to strike a more positive note by underlining how much Obama had achieved since Newtown by wielding his own executive powers. The vice-president said that 21 of the 23 promises Obama had made after Newtown had already been achieved or were on their way towards completion.The list of partially or fully completed executive orders include improvements in federal record keeping over existing background checks, extra training and resources for law enforcers, new guidelines published this week on gun safety in schools , and an end to the prohibition on federal research into gun-related homicides and suicides.The two areas where so far the White House has failed to see results using its abilities to skirt around Congress and act alone was the pledge to require health insurance companies to cover mental health conditions on an equal footing with medical benefits ; and appointing a new head of the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives . Obama has nominated Todd Jones but partisan sniping is likely to block his appointment for the post that has remained empty for the past six years.US gun controlJoe BidenUS SenateUS politicsUnited StatesAurora shootingNewtown shootingEd Pilkingtonguardian.co.uk © 2013 Guardian News and Media Limited or its affiliated companies.

Eleven people were killed during the remembrance day service. A twelfth victim died after 13 years in a coma.In his letter Gault wrote that he was disappointed that Zeidan would not be meeting victims' groups, on a visit that he described as a "momentous occasion in our country's history".Libya supplied several tonnes of weapons to the Provisional IRA in the 1980s as "revenge" for Margaret Thatcher's support of the US bombing of Libya in 1986.Libyan logistical support for the Provisionals included anti-aircraft guns, flame-throwers, rockets, Soviet-made grenades as well as enough rifles to arm at least two infantry battalions.However, Gaddafi's supply of Semtex was his most significant "gift" to the Provisionals and the explosive was later used to set off many of the huge devices that devastated parts of London, such as Bishop's Gate and South Quay in Docklands.Gaddafi's regime first started supplying the Provisionals with weapons in the early 1970s when the republicans' head of Sinn Fein finances was Joe Cahill.But in the 1990s Gaddafi tried to reach out to the UK and rebuild relations. His government, via the UN, provided an entire inventory of everything the regime had given the IRA in the 1980s.In his letter to Zeidan, Gault called on the premier to give his "immediate attention" to "legacy issues which, if unresolved, will mean that relationships … can never be as close as they have the potential to be".His letter continued: "For our part, as families, we are keen to support the efforts of the new Libyan regime, and we rejoice that a warmonger and tyrant is no longer at the helm of your country and that a democratic process is on the cusp of being born."A Downing Street spokeswoman would not confirm whether Zeidan and Robinson would discuss the issue of compensation at their meeting.The spokeswoman said: "We are in touch with the Libyan regime about these legacy issues and these conversations happen at the highest level on both sides."A number of victims of IRA violence during the Troubles have launched legal actions against the Libyan government for compensation, on grounds that the Semtex that was used in a number of high-profile bomb attacks had been supplied by the former Gaddafi regime.The claimants include victims of the Harrods explosion, including a US citizen caught in the IRA bomb attack in Knightsbride, London, and other victims of other atrocities, both in England and Northern Ireland during the Troubles.Sean Henry, manager of the Clinton Centre, a reconciliation initiative constructed on the site of the 1987 bombing next to Enniskillen's war memorial, also welcomed Zeidan's visit."Anything that sees people talking about a better future has to be positive. Talking is the only solution," he said.He added that he would welcome an opportunity to strengthen links between Northern Ireland and Libya, as two countries emerging from violent histories.IRAPeter RobinsonG8Northern IrelandUK security and counter-terrorismMuammar GaddafiEsther AddleyHenry McDonaldguardian.co.uk © 2013 Guardian News and Media Limited or its affiliated companies.

Gaddafi is also being tried on separate charges of harming state security.Muammar GaddafiLibyaMiddle East and North AfricaAfricaguardian.co.uk © 2013 Guardian News and Media Limited or its affiliated companies.

But yet again, his party claimed, Farage was forced to revise his plans after one of the city's main hotels and its police commanders ran scared of the protesters.Ukip claims that a booking for a large lunch and press conference at the Marriott hotel, a well-known venue beside at the city's bustling airport, was cancelled abruptly with only a few days' notice after an Aberdeen anti-fascist group threatened to demonstrate outside.The hotel vigorously disputes that it had been influenced by demonstrators, insisting their provisional booking could not be taken up because the hotel was too busy.Farage's plans to take tea with Marie Bolton, the independent depute leader of Aberdeen city council, were subsequently cancelled with barely 30 minutes' notice after a group of 15 anti-fascist and pro-independence activists gathered outside the city's Town House council building.After hosting lunch for about a dozen activists and officials in a hotel some miles from the Marriott, Farage alleged the move was caused by fear of the "undemocratic yobs" who had forced him to retreat under police escort into a locked pub last month.That allegation puzzled the subdued bunch of demonstrators outside the Town House: there were no police officers there at all, and the Town House council offices are less than 50 metres from Aberdeen's police headquarters. There was no sign of the anger or intemperate abusiveness of the Edinburgh demonstration.Alec Westwood, an actor and demonstrator, was bemused by Farage's claims of intimidation. The Aberdeen protestors said they had no intention of repeating the scenes in Edinburgh. "We don't need to be offensive," he said. "But we should allowed to stand up and say what we think about him."The Police Scotland commanders they spoke to "were perfectly happy both for those to demonstrate and for us to have a cup of tea", said Christopher Monckton, Farage's Scottish lieutenant. But Bolton's office was given a different message, said Farage."I was invited to have go and take tea [with Bolton]. We now know that invitation was withdrawn," the Ukip leader said. "They told us that somebody very senior advised them not to continue so we took that advice. I'm sorry that she was pressured or felt she was pressured into not allowing this meeting to go ahead."However, a Police Scotland spokesman said: "The police haven't had any part [in that decision] whatsoever."There was just one confrontation – and one arrest – as Farage went to a nearby pub before his flight home. After an intense debate with Farage about his views on sharia law and the status of Norway in the EU, a bearded young man was detained after spraying a drink at the retreating back of a Ukip official.Nigel FarageUK Independence party ScotlandProtestSeverin Carrellguardian.co.uk © 2013 Guardian News and Media Limited or its affiliated companies.
