Rig Workers need retraining, support and good green jobs @KwasiKwarteng - can we please invest in that and not new oil and gas? Please show leadership on this as the minister in charge of business, energy and industry #KwasiPleaseAct

Hi Aran, I'm a reporter at the Macclesfield Express. Just after an LDR article you filed on 25/9 about a housing scheme in Poynton being deferred. Would you mind sending it to me please - alex.scapens@menmedia.co.uk. It disappeared from our Content Watch system for some reason!

@Macc_UKIP Hi would someone mind calling me on 0161 21 2083 or emailing alex.scapens@menmedia.co.uk if you would like to have your say as to why the people of Macc should vote for you in upcoming elections. We are giving all parties a chance to have their say.

@Macc_UKIP Hi do you have an email address please? It's Alex Scapens at the Macclesfield Express and I wanted to send you an email about our election coverage. and if you wanted to be part of it? Thanks PS you can email me at alex.scapens@menmedia.co.uk

Double celebration for All Saints pupil Georgia Holmes. 11 GCSEs on Thursday and aced her maths 16th birthday on Saturday. "I woke up feeling sick but now I feel so happy." #gcseresultday2018

Josephine Braithwaite has left All Saints School delighted with 12 GCSEs. "I worked hard, my mum had been more worried about today than me."

#gcseresultday2018 Ciaran Locke is a bit of a maths whizz but did well across the board. "GCSEs are important, if you don't get the grades your future plans have to change."

Dominic Stanley, from Waterfoot, got 11 GCSEs and did particularly well in English. He's a man of many talents as he's also an elite breaststroke swimmer. #gcseresultday2018

Now at All Saint's School in Rawtenstall to hear about their #gcseresultday2018 successes

Twins Alyssia and Amelia Hambleton both did well overall and top marks in drama much to mum Julie's relief and delight #gcse2018

Good results for a Haslingden High student with high hopes. Tarek Ahmed wants to be Prime Minister. Wonder if Theresa May got as many As and A* equivalents. #gcseresultday2018

Some of Haslingden High's class of 2018. #GCSEresults

Joe Caldwell with his 9 GCSEs. "After the exams I thought I've done them now, I can't change what I've got." #gcseresults2018 #haslingden

Early start at Haslingden High #GCSEs2018

Melissa Clowes was another straight A student. She said: "I've been nervous thinking about it for a week." #ALevelResults

Bacup and Rawtenstall Grammar pupil Suleha Baig got straight As. Next stop for her is a law degree at Durham Uni. #alevelresultsday

David Greenhalgh was particularly pleased with an A in maths and will start an apprenticeship in aerospace engineering with BAE! #alevelresultsday2018

It's Alevel results day and at Bacup and Rawtenstall Grammar Bailey Hunter, Jake Dench, Robyn Westerman and Melissa Clowes are celebrating.
