From Hong Kong ENW will make a short trip over to Japan where a traditional national delicacy has been controversially banned. Raw liver sashimi - a popular Japanese dish will no longer be sold in any restaurants from the beginning of July. The Japanese Ministry of Health banned liver sashimi after five people died, and many more became seriously ill, after eating raw liver in restaurants last year. Kintan, a popular Japanese restaurant chain, has said that 90% of customers eating at their restaurants around Japan last week had come to eat liver sashimi

paying around ￥1,800 per plate.

Our final news story that was suggested by many of our podcasters celebrates Spain winning the Euro 2012 final. The Spanish team became the first national team to retain the Henri Delaunay Trophy after they thrashed Italy 4-0 in the final played in Kyiv in Ukraine. The Spaniards have also become the first side to win three major trophies in-a-row, following on from Euro 2008 and World Cup 2010.
