Bromsgrove Lib Dems have announced two doctors, a student and a High Street worker as their candidates in May’s elections to Worcestershire County Council. Bromsgrove East candidate is Sam Evans, a 22 year-old student who has lived in the area all his life. As a local campaigner he launched a petition to save the 202 bus service and has for greater enforcement against cars parking wholly on the pavement outside a busy roundabout in Aston Fields after residents raised concerns. Joanna McKenna, who is standing for Bromsgrove West, lives in the town with her husband and children. She is a doctor in the NHS and earlier this year she set up a petition calling for the Government to assess vaccinating teachers before schools reopen.
A PETITION has been launched calling on Worcestershire County Council to review the speed limit on the A38 road in Bromsgrove. Residents have raised safety concerns about the road, which has a speed limit ranging from 40mph to 60mph throughout. Bromsgrove District councillor Siobhan Robinson and local campaigner Joshua Robinson, who both started the petition, have highlighted that the A38 runs very close to houses, past a first school and has inadequate crossing points. The councillor, who also works as a teacher, says parents from Charford First School and Nursery have voiced fears about their children s safety walking to and from school.

Over the past week, Gill – who is also known as ‘Roaring Kitty’ on his YouTube channel – has become a millionaire after finding himself at the centre of a story that will have Wall Street shaking its head for many years to come.

Athletics executive vice president of baseball operations Billy Beane is co-chair of RedBall Acquisition Corp., a company in talks with current Red Sox ownership, Fenway Sports Group, about a potential merger that would see RedBall take over a 25% ownership stake in the Boston franchise. Those talks are in their early stages and a deal isn’t an inevitability, but there’d be an obvious conflict of interest if the parties do eventually come to an agreement. (Beane also has an approximate 1% ownership stake in the Athletics, notes Susan Slusser of the San Francisco Chronicle).
If the potential RedBall-FSG merger were to go through, Beane would likely step down from his position with the A’s, report Jared Diamond, Joshua Robinson and Miriam Gotffried of the Wall Street Journal. Slusser hears the same, noting that the deal might be finalized by the end of the calendar year. Beane leaving the A’s wouldn’t be surprising under those circumstances, bu
