Turn traffic lights off says study MP'S

Someone is starting to listen to what Colin has been shouting about for years, lets hope Cllr Price takes note!

Congratulations to BCC

'H', I'm not trying to get you in a stranglehold here but why exactly do you think that the Liverpool supporters need to apologise. What do you think that they did that requires them to say sorry?

In fairness, I don't see anyone asking for an apology but H.Wilson has made some valid points. There was clearly a cover up here but I do not believe that all 100% of the fans were blameless and if you do, then obviously you never attended any of the big games at that time.

   It is good to see some real positive things happening. Well done to HFC.

Looks like there is finaly some traction in this case

Hopefully this shall lead to a conviction and go someway into giving Christian's family some justice

I was only just reading the article, lets hope they finally can convict the person responsible 

I love the way people blame the papers when they have been caught with their pants down.

And I agree with Adrian Symonds. Pointless event to be celebrated.

So the Queens 90th birthday celebrations are pointless? 

And a MASSIVE earner for the UK, ten fold compared to what they are paid.

You beat me too it.

A Ledbury town councillor has been forced to apologise after she tried to ban Union Jack bunting being put up to celebrate the Queen's birthday - in case it upset FOREIGNERS. What the hell?

Councillor Liz Harvey voted against having the patriotic bunting, saying visitors to the town would mistake the red-white-and-blue flags for the National Front.

Look at these hooligans! They are breaking down fences, didn't see one child or woman either http://news.sky.com/story/1676020/hundreds-of-migrants-hurt-in-breakout-attempt

So with £100k in the bank you can still apply or a grant! 

The council have decided to install CCTV cameras at the Hereford Cemetery on a temporary basis.

See quote from the Hereford Times below:

CALLS for CCTV cameras to be installed at a Hereford cemetery where thieves damaged and stole personal items from graves have been answered.

 

Herefordshire Council announced this week that it would be installing the cameras in the children's section at Hereford's Crematorium and Cemetery in Westfaling Street on a temporary basis.

 

Security patrols in the area are also going to be increased following discussions between the council, police and the security firm.

 

It comes after a campaign and online petition calling for the measures to be introduced received 1,833 signatures.

 

 

The Hereford Times has previously reported how families were left devastated after discovering sentimental ornaments and items had been smashed and stolen early last month.

 

In October 2014, vandals targeted nine Jewish headstones in a secluded, separate part of the cemetery in an attack.

 

A police investigation failed to identify the culprits, and at that time Herefordshire Council indicated no increased security measures would be put in place to deter the perpetrators from returning.

 

But in its statement this week, the council said additional security measures would be introduced over the coming weeks.

 

It said: "Herefordshire Council would like to extend its sympathy to the families concerned at this difficult time.

 

"Following ongoing discussions and a meeting with council staff, the police and the security company about the best way of securing the cemetery area, it has been agreed to increase security patrols in the graveyard and to introduce temporary CCTV in the coming weeks, which will hopefully help prevent this type of unacceptable behaviour again."

 

You are better off being a thieving drug addict another slap on the wrist. 

I see that the HT are running a poll:

I took a few photographs this afternoon to show how bad the incline is with several bends and a nasty sharp bend on an adverse camber at the bottom of the close.

Walking up the close, this is the sharp bend on the adverse camber

Walking further around

Another good angle looking up hill on a bend

Your can clearly see it is quite a steep incline this is where the bin lorry was slipping backwards last winter on the ice.

You can see the top of Glastonbury Close here where it joins Sydwall Road.

This photo was taken in Sydwall Road looking down into Glastonbury Close

A little further, you can imagine how dangerous it is when it is icy, it is like an ice rink!

Another view looking back down the close a little further along

A little further towards the bend

You can see the adverse camber coming up

Adverse camber is pretty obvious from this angle.

Ice rink indeed, lots of cars just waiting to be hit when t's icy looking at these photo's, how did the visiting Cllr's come to their decision not to provide grit bins following a request from the public? They complain that hardly anyone attends their meetings and when someone does attend with a legitimate and sensible request it gets denied or if you want to dress it up it gets deferred. Where is the common sense here?

About time! Well done to Tesco though for leading the way. 

Yes I have just read this on the HT website

Emerge together ? What does that mean? 

I think it means that dippy has completed her tick box exercise just ignore obviously looking for reactions, don't play to it. With regard to the crime, there has been little communication from the police and I think more information is needed, lets hope that this crime is solved and solved quickly.

They are a good band, I have seen them before, I was out of town yesterday otherwise I would of come down myself.

Perhaps the Syrians are part of their countries Christian minority?

Wishful thinking perhaps

Good that the council will manage to find all these homes when my niece has been waiting for a few years with her child to be housed, that is all I am saying. I am not commenting anymore on this subject i don't want to be accused of alongside other members who share my views of ganging up on others.

 

Bless Blame Angela Merkel. 

 

Herefordshire council best start ordering these posters from the printers for the local swimming baths.

Oh and inform the police and trading standards because it won't be long before you see more of this going on here. Apparently most of these Kurds running these shops were also migrants refugees (half of which came in under lorries and still continue to attempt to smuggle more in).

 

Mark my words. 

Thi is what is really happening in Calais

Commons committee calls for asylum seekers to be housed in Tory shires

It must be incredibly difficult to integrate an unaccompanied Syrian juvenile youth into Herefordshire as there is absolutely no existing community to easily integrate them into. And it is virtually non Muslim round here. That's why we're only getting 6. They'll probably need home tuition and a very reliable foster parent to go to. And it's not as if those are coming out of our ears. 

 

It's probably a lot easier to take a family unit but best of luck with parachuting such a family into somewhere like Leominster. They'd be like a fish out of water.

 

We will have to provide them will mosques next, they will soon be popping up more and more.

I appreciate it would take a lot of resources but these shops should all be raided at the exact same time, i'm sure they all know each other.

HT website is down, anyone else got the same thing?

I've no problem with people pasting quotes and references from the papers and elsewhere, I've done it myself. That's different to pasting whole, unattributed articles. In my view, it doesn't further the debate to simply republish stuff people can read for themselves if you provide a link.

But sometimes you are better off pasting a larger part of a quote/reference in order to have the impact intended, it is not always appropriate to just post a link, some people will not click that link, but a few paragraphs they may read.
