Germany's new chancellor, Friedrich Merz, has told Ukraine's Volodymyr Zelensky that Berlin will help Kyiv produce long-range weapons to defend itself from Russian attack.

On the morning of the lunch, Ms Patterson recounted frying off some garlic, shallots and several trays of supermarket-bought mushrooms that had been finely chopped in a food processor."I cooked that for a very long time," she said. "You've got to get almost all the water out," she added, so the mushrooms won't make the pastry soggy.

"As I was cooking it down, I tasted it a few times and it seemed a little bland to me," she said.At this point, she decided to add some dried mushrooms that she had bought from an Asian grocer in Melbourne several months earlier and stored in a container in her pantry.Asked if that container may have had other types of mushrooms in it, Ms Patterson, choking up, said: "Now I think there's a possibility that there were foraged ones as well."

Yesterday, the court heard that Ms Patterson had started foraging for mushrooms in locations close to her Leongatha home in 2020, and her long-standing love for mushrooms had expanded to include wild mushrooms as they had "more flavour".Ms Patterson told the court she had served up the food and instructed her guests to grab a plate themselves as she finished preparing gravy.

There were no assigned seats or plates, she told the trial.

Mr Wilkinson previously told the trial the guests had each been given grey plates while Ms Patterson had eaten off an orange one.Baird was stopped on 10 July 2023 on the B9152 road between Kincraig and Rotheimurchus, near Aviemore.

The court heard that the officers narrowly avoided being dragged under the wheels of her car when she sped off.Natalie Paterson, representing Baird, told the court that it had been a moment of panic, and she had not foreseen the "terrible consequences" of her actions, which she fully regretted.

Baird, who was visibly upset when she appeared in court, was also disqualified from driving for 43 months.Following sentencing, Police Scotland said it welcomed Baird's conviction.
