KATE Beckinsale claims Harvey Weinstein tried it on with her while she was still at school.

The Brit star met him in a hotel aged 17. She said: “He opened the door in his bathrobe. I left, uneasy.” The Met are probing a sex abuse claim against him.

TORY plans to cap energy giants’ rip-off prices have been attacked.

PM Theresa May promised to stop the exploitati­on of 12 million households on dear standard variable tariffs.

But critics claimed the cap would not encourage people to switch to cheaper deals while others slammed the delay in bringing it in.

Draft legislatio­n published yesterday requires regulator Ofgem to consult and impose the cap “as soon as practicabl­e”. But Ofgem boss Dermot Nolan has already warned consultati­on could take five months. The GMB union’s Justin Bowden said: “The announceme­nt falls short of the boldness needed to protect billpayers from profiteeri­ng.” And Labour claimed that four million households will face a winter of “cold homes or astronomic­al bills” because of the Government’s dithering.
