Re: Tommy Robinson
Jailed for 2 charges of contempt of court, was already on a suspended sentence. The court had imposed a reporting ban to ensure a fair trial, he ignored it. Reporting restrictions would have been lifted after a verdict but he compromised the process. No excuse. Deserves his fate but I’m sure he is ...

There are plans in the pipeline for the old Grammar School - see link. I was one of those who would slag our town off in the past, but it is certainly doing much better than many towns in the north west.

Everton is becoming a poisoned chalice. They were dropping like a stone and BSA turned them around and he still gets the boot. His replacement will get the same if they don't make the top six. Carry on like this and they will go down sooner or later.
