This week's news in pictures (1 May 2010)
MIA's controversial video for new song 'Born Free' has been removed from YouTube. Directed by Romain Gavras, it features nudity, graphic violence and a plot where ginger adolescents are rounded up into an armour-protected van, driven to the country and either shot or made to run through a minefield.
