They are pirates

7:00am Wednesday 10th March 2010

How I agree with Mark Anthony about the asset stripping which has been going on in this country.

I am writing to say how impressed I was by the event on February 4 at the Artrix at the start of lesbian, gay, bisexual and trans (LGBT) history month and how proud I was of Bromsgrove for hosting it. There was an interesting networking opportunity preceding the showing of the classic 1985 film My Beautiful Laundrette. Many organisations had put a lot of effort into creating an interesting display in the foyer and upstairs at the Artrix. Display tables were staffed by the West Mercia Police positive action outreach team, Bromsgrove library, the fire service, the Bromsgrove Council diversity team and the Gender Trust, to name but a few, advertising their resources and inclusivity.

Fast food fears

3:04pm Monday 8th March 2010

IN reply to disgruntled Catshill resident regarding yet another restaurant/takeaway in this vicinity, we agree with everything in their letter. We did object to the original planning application and also the appeal lodged by Mr M Stowe. We sent our objections, together with those of all our neighbours, regarding smells, parking and the fact that there are already six food outlets in very close proximity to the planned venue, to the planning inspectorate at Bristol. We received no acknowledgment of our objections and were not even told of the decision – we were informed of this when we rang the council having seen the present notice.
