...interview, Campbell previewed to TIME some of the biggest revelations in the book, which is published tomorrow in the U.K. by Hutchinson and, in two weeks, by Knopf in the U.S. Like a kind of Zelig, only less self-effacing, Campbell was present at key events of the decade. Royal biographers have mined for new material on Princess Diana for years. Campbell's diaries reveal a trove of meetings she held with Blair when he was opposition leader, and describe the interaction of Buckingham Palace and the Labour Party in the days after her death.

That man is believed to be Lebanese, according to unnamed sources cited by Britain's Guardian newspaper...
...with the London attacks, Peter Kelso, who runs the taxi firm, told TIME. Shortly after the botched airport bombing, police returned and scoured the logbook specifically for listed rides to the Neuk Crescent address. The logbook revealed that a passenger named "Dr. Abdul" took 18 journeys between the local Royal Alexandra Hospital and Neuk Crescent; and another one-way trip to Glasgow airport on June 13. On Monday, one of the suspects detained in Glasgow was identified as Bilal Abdulla, an Iraqi physician who reportedly worked at the same hospital. It is not yet clear if both incidents refer...
