English not British.... Time the English cared about England and not the UK !!

Here’s how the local elections went in Wigan, where Makerfield by election will be taking place… This could end Burnham’s entire political career if he doesn’t win.




Here we are! Full council at Worcestershire County Council - and a new leader incoming. Will Reform keep minority control - or are we looking at a rainbow alliance? We’ll have the full story on the BBC news website today - on the radio on @bbchw - and on TV at 6.30pm.

BREAKING: Reform UK has LOST minority control of Worcestershire County Council - after being overthrown by a shock rainbow coalition. The Conservatives have teamed up with the Greens, Lib Dems and independents to form a power-sharing alliance in the last few minutes. 2/3

Guns at Green Lane Mosque in Small Heath. Don't see this at churches.

Statement from Cllr Samantha Gethen: I was asked to leave a SEND community roundtable this morning - not for causing disruption, but because the local Conservative MP, @bhatti_saqib, refused to begin the meeting until I left. I attend North Solihull’s SEND support group as a parent of children with SEND. Yes, I am also an elected Reform councillor - but today I attended as a mother wanting to discuss support for children and families. Rather than allow the meeting to become uncomfortable for the organisers or other parents attending, I chose to leave out of respect for them, and for the significant time and effort that had gone into organising the event for local SEND families. Their priorities should always come before any attempt by the local MP to ostracise me because of my political affiliation. It is deeply disappointing that a non-political family event was turned into a political issue. Excluding a SEND parent from a conversation about their child’s future is wrong. SEND families deserve to be heard, regardless of politics.
