GEORGE CLOONEY is spending time in Edinburgh, Scotland after appearing at last night's final Live 8 concert in the city's Murrayfield stadium, to put pressure on the G8 leaders to tackle world poverty.

The OCEAN'S TWELVE actor urges the leading political figures, including US President GEORGE W BUSH and British Prime Minister TONY BLAIR, to cancel developing world debt, because their legacy will live on in history.

He says, "I'd appeal for the G8 leaders to give more than they are willing to give. All of us agree these eight gentlemen probably would like to go into retirement saying, 'I'm the one who ended poverty' because it's not a bad thing to brag about."
