Made it into our own mag @pure_peak this issue - it’s only taken 15 years! True, I was a substitute for Kelvin Fletcher, but you seize your chances… Link: #31" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">flickread.com/edition/html/6…

There's a real risk that a seriously ill patient misses out on life-saving care because they didn’t go to A&E. The government must back our plan for a £1.5 billion package to provide an additional 6,000 beds.

Starmer’s US policy lies in tatters. Trump is now punishing the UK and NATO allies just for doing the right thing. Time for the PM to stand firm against the bully in the White House, and work with European and Commonwealth allies to make him back down from this reckless plan.

HELP: Followers, if you know David Thornton, author of The Story of Leeds, could you ask him to get in touch urgently, please. It is a family matter, and one I’d like to help with. TY

Come on @marksandspencer where is your support for British farming. Stop misleading customers. Tomatoes and cherries are not fresh in season in January. Being in season does not mean importing them thousands of miles from Chile and Morocco! It means in season where you live!

So Buxton Town Team has been honoured with the King’s Award for Voluntary Service - and of course we wanted to mark the occasion with a display on the Slopes. Shame we had to battle gale force winds and pouring rain to do it… Teamwork! 🤗

@OliverPridmore @nottslive Disgraceful and undemocratic. You must report without fear or favour. Expose what’s wrong and tell readers that they wouldn’t comment. But watch for them behaving like some Labour Councils and withdrawing council advertising.

@DavidWalsh_M @sheffieldtrib @pure_peak Compared with other free publications I think that’s unfair. As you say, it has to be paid for somehow and at least readers can flick past without having to look at them if they’re not interested.

Appreciate what @SheffieldTrib is trying to do but a lot of their stories were done elsewhere first - or from press releases - and available free compared to up to £175-a-year subs: The Leadmill, Collegiate Campus, Harvey Willgoose, bins, Walk of Fame, Excel Parking...

@DavidWalsh_M @sheffieldtrib Actually it can be if the focus is on providing a public service rather than making big bucks… take @pure_peak for example: 20,000 printed copies, 7k delivered door-to-door, and the rest available free to anyone who’s interested 🤗
