Watching today's game, I felt we looked up for a battle, Meps looked great, Galves was improved (I think the criticism of him is harsh) and JJ is our best finisher since Gayle. Let's exorcise the Derby ghost #wba

Looked at the signings we've made and would say the window was a solid 8/10. We moved on dead wood and bought in a series of younger players with sell on value and crucially legs in midfield. Also we can play different systems now #wba

Have to say the @WBA performance today was one of the best performances I've seen for about 3 years. The team looks fitter, quicker and hungrier. We may not finish in the play offs but I think we are going some way to getting the joy back into football. #wba

Fantastic to see the Transformation of the former Swan Lane Gas Works into a thriving new community. 147 much needed affordable new homes for local families. Pleased that Sandwell Council played a key role in securing funding to bring back this challenging site into use.

Youth unemployment is the challenge of our time. It needs fixing - and fast. This is the right step and it’s good news. I’ll do whatever it takes to get young people into secure high quality jobs.
Let’s stop telling young people there’s only one way to succeed.

Let me say this very directly. Football does not belong to investors. It belongs to the people who fill the stands and who stand on the touchline week in, week out, rain or shine. The World Cup is not a product. It is the greatest competition in world sport, and it was never anyone's to sell. Dress the deal up however you like. Once you have sold a piece of it, you have sold out. Football belongs to the fans. It always has, and it always will.

Being strong on the international stage is important. We're seeing careful choreography, tactical alliances, public signals of support and familiar faces popping up. Hoping we've got the numbers. Best of luck to @LOOKMUMNOCMPUTR in #Eurovision

Wrong Council, Wrong Town: Christine Duffy’s Accidental Election Reform’s newest Borough Councillor didn’t quite know which Council she was elected to, turning up at the wrong Council to sign her paperwork! kidsgrove.substack.com/p/wro…

A devastating night in Birmingham and across the country. Good public servants, colleagues and friends have lost their seats. This was a verdict on us not them. The PM has rightly said we must do better. It is a privilege to serve the British people and we must live up to it.

Martin Murray, Reform UK’s Leader in Staffordshire is asking for the Deputy Staffordshire Police, Fire and Crime Commissioner to step down because he forgot to tax and MOT his car? It’s a bit rich coming from a man who filed for liquidation for his company in 2018, owing tens of thousands of pounds to his local council, HMRC, suppliers and staff. He then had the audacity to blame Covid-19 and now serves as acting leader of a county council. You would think after Reform UK’s previous Staffordshire Leader was sacked for being a racist and his deputy defected to avoid a racism probe, he would keep his head down.

Martin Murray (@MartinPMurray) is the Reform UK Leader in Staffordshire (after Ian Cooper and Chris Large were sacked / resigned). He used to be Regional Ambassador for NTIA and claimed that his main aim was to support the night time economy. That's all gone now he's a Reform UK councillor. He's abandoned it. Seems though Martin converted his nightclub Silks in Cannock into luxury apartments. He also tried to wriggle out of the 20% social housing requirement for the development too. expressandstar.com/news/loca…
