Greater Birmingham LEP

I am pleased that more towns in the City Region based around Birmingham are recognising the merit of working together. Sadly it appears that the Black Country do not want to work with Birmingham, Solihull, East Staffordshire, Cannock Chase, Lichfield, Tamworth, Bromsgrove, Redditch and Wyre Forest.

However, the other towns should be congratulated on being willing to work together to promote the local economy.

Shame the same could not be said for the rest , things look promising if a few towns are willing to work together to promote local economies, unfortunately over here in Bury they have decided to put the entire town up for sale, no joke, Bury have decided to outsource ALL services and provisions, yes All, to private companies, yep that sounds good for the town don't it. maybe they should sell us on E-Bay, highest bidder wins, this is despite Bury had the Largest single investment for any town outside London in 2008

Six months for recording a court hearing - Norman Scarth

The link is in Russian about the imprisonment of Norman Scarth who is actually 85. He has a complex history including a court hearing which found that he used a chainsaw to fight off bailiffs when he was 75. [a court judgment which is disputed see comments] However, that does not justify imprisoning him for 6 months for recording a court hearing (see the link and ask google to translate it if your Russian is not up to it). It has got into the Argyll News Because he has been held such that people cannot get to him to sign paperwork an application for a writ of Habeas Corpus was made today. This has been adjourned until next week. The English judicial system is really not good at responding to major abuses of human rights by the judicial system.
