Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 3E3P6X3 - Editorial image of a concert poster for The Fall featuring Mark E Smith, promoting a show at Maxwell Hall, Salford University, on Friday 21 March 2008, presented in bold graphic artwork with strong red, black and cream design. The poster is useful for illustrating themes around The Fall, Mark E Smith, Manchester and Salford music history, post punk culture, alternative rock, independent music, live gig promotion, university venues, student audiences, northern England cultural life and collectible music memorabilia. As a piece of printed music ephemera, it has clear value for editorial features on British underground music, cult bands, iconic frontmen, poster art, concert history, archive material, and the visual identity of late twentieth and early twenty-first century gig culture. The wording on the poster links the image to a postponed performance, making it relevant for stories about cancelled shows, rescheduled concerts, lost gigs, tour disruption and the fragile practical realities of live music events. It also suits broader features on Mark E Smith as a singular northern voice in British music, the long legacy of The Fall, and the continuing fascination with rare posters, flyers and original promotional material associated with influential bands. The Maxwell Hall and Salford University references ground the image firmly in Greater Manchester, adding documentary value for regional heritage, student venue history and local music scene coverage. Search relevance includes The Fall poster, Mark E Smith portrait, Salford University concert, Maxwell Hall gig, post punk memorabilia, Manchester music archive, British band poster, retro concert design, underground rock history, editorial music photography and collectible wall art. The stylised artwork, typography and date detail make the image especially useful for magazines, newspapers, blogs, fan sites, record collecting features and retrospective pieces examining the visual culture, mythology and enduring influence.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 3DX14AM - A cluster of bright green Vote Green campaign posters displayed on a battered roadside hoarding on Stockport Road in Levenshulme, Manchester, England. The repeated Green Party branding creates a strong visual impression of grassroots campaigning in an everyday urban setting, with the posters appearing as a wall of political messaging aimed at passing motorists, bus passengers and pedestrians on one of south Manchester's main arterial routes. This image works well as an editorial and documentary photograph of local electioneering, street-level democracy and the visual language of British political campaigning. The rough condition of the hoarding, with torn paper remnants and weathered boards, adds realism and a slightly scrappy campaign feel, making the photograph especially suitable for stories about local activism, low-budget visibility tactics, neighbourhood politics and the contest for attention in public space. Levenshulme is a suburb of Manchester on the A6 corridor between the city centre and Stockport, within the M19 postcode district, which gives the image clear geographic relevance for features on south Manchester, local elections, party activism and district-level political identity. Because the posters simply say Vote Green without naming a candidate, the image is also commercially useful beyond one single contest, and can illustrate wider themes such as environmental politics, progressive campaigning, poster-based publicity, grassroots organising, voter persuasion, and the use of repeated branding in UK elections. Suitable for editorial use on Manchester politics, Green Party campaigning, local democracy, British elections, neighbourhood activism, urban political communication and public poster displays

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 3DX14KY - A wide street level view of a temporary Green Party campaign headquarters in Gorton, Manchester, during the Denton and Gorton parliamentary by election. The shopfront carries a dark green fascia reading GREEN PARTY with the party emblem, and the windows are filled with VOTE GREEN posters and campaign boards ready for canvassing. Small groups of volunteers gather outside, collecting leaflets, poster stakes and banners, checking routes and chatting before heading out to knock doors.
Above the neighbouring units, a large Labour campaign banner is visible with the message VOTE ANGELIKI and FOR UNITY NOT DIVISION, adding political contrast in a single frame. The scene captures the practical mechanics of modern electioneering: a local base used for briefing, distributing literature, coordinating volunteer shifts and running get out the vote activity. It suits editorial coverage of UK politics, grassroots campaigning, constituency work and voter mobilisation, showing the human effort behind street posters, leaflet drops and conversations on the pavement.
This image also works for commentary about changing local loyalties in Greater Manchester. The presence of a prominent Green HQ, busy with volunteers and visible branding, can illustrate a campaign narrative that Labour is struggling to dominate in this patch, with the Greens presenting themselves as the main challenger and attracting tactical and protest votes. On busy streets like this, campaign offices become both a logistics hub and a statement of momentum, signalling to passers by that the contest is real and that the outcome is not predetermined.
Shot in winter light with shuttered shopfronts nearby and everyday clothing, the photograph emphasises place, community and the realities of campaigning in urban Britain. It is useful for news, features and analysis about by elections, local democracy, party organisation and the role of volunteers in building street level visibility.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 3DX14M3 - A Reform UK campaign placard staked into a front garden in Denton, Greater Manchester, promoting the candidate Matt Goodwin and urging support in the Gorton and Denton parliamentary by-election. The turquoise sign is clearly readable, carrying the slogan I'm voting MATT GOODWIN and the date 26th February, alongside the circular Reform UK logo. Behind the sign sits a typical red brick suburban home with a bay window and low garden planting, placing the campaign message firmly in the everyday domestic setting where much UK electioneering is seen at street level. Shot in late winter, the shrubs and hedging look seasonal and subdued, with daylight that suggests cool conditions and changeable skies. The image works as a strong editorial illustration of modern British politics, local campaigning, and voter persuasion, showing how parties use simple, highly legible branding and date specific messaging to signal support and visibility in residential neighbourhoods. It also documents the visual language of a contemporary UK by-election, including typography, slogans, party identity, and the use of private garden space as a platform for public political expression.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 3DX14MA - A large VOTE GREEN sign board for the Green Party stands prominently in the front garden of a semi-detached red brick home in Gorton, Manchester. The board is mounted on a white stake and positioned to face the street, turning an ordinary domestic frontage into a public statement of support during an election campaign. Behind it, the house's bay windows, tiled porch and clipped shrubs create a recognisably suburban, owner-occupied feel, often associated with settled, middle-income neighbourhoods and the kind of voter groups parties work hard to persuade.
The image is a clean piece of documentary election photography, focusing on political branding and the visibility of campaigning rather than people. It suits editorial coverage of UK politics, parliamentary by-elections, local elections, canvassing and get out the vote operations, where the spread of garden boards is used as a simple signal of momentum and organisation. Garden posters also play a psychological role: they normalise a party's presence on a street, create conversation, and suggest that support is not hidden behind closed doors.
This photograph can illustrate stories about voter realignment, local issues, and how parties build a ground game using supporters' homes as temporary advertising space. It also supports wider commentary about climate and environmental politics entering mainstream neighbourhood debate, alongside the everyday pressures that often dominate doorstep conversations such as housing costs, public services, transport and wages. The overcast sky and wintery planting emphasise a typical British campaigning season, practical rather than glamorous, and rooted in place.
The strong typography, high contrast colours and clear composition provide good copy space for headlines and make the image usable for press, web and social media contexts discussing campaigning, political communication, and how parties translate street-level visibility into votes.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 3DX14ME - A red I'm voting Labour garden placard is fixed to a wooden stake outside a suburban home in the Gorton and Denton area of Greater Manchester. The sign, branded with Vote Labour and the party website labour.org.uk, is positioned beside a parked car and low front wall, making it highly visible to passing pedestrians and motorists. Behind it, a typical red brick semi detached house with bay windows and a small front garden sets a clear, everyday domestic context for election campaigning.
This photograph is strong documentary imagery of UK political campaigning at street level. It illustrates how parties rely on supporters' front gardens as temporary advertising space, turning private homes into public statements during a by election or general election period. The bold red colour, clean typography and large Labour wording make the image useful for news, features and analysis about voter mobilisation, campaigning tactics, doorstep politics, canvassing, leaflet drops and get out the vote operations.
With no faces or canvassers visible, the focus stays on symbols and messaging: a simple declaration of intent to vote Labour, presented in the same visual language used across the country. It can support commentary about local political loyalties, how parties measure momentum through the spread of garden boards, and how residents signal identity and affiliation in their neighbourhoods. The wider scene, including the parked vehicle, garden edging and wintery light, reinforces the ordinary reality of campaigning in Britain, where votes are chased street by street and household by household. The composition offers useful copy space and context for themes such as democratic participation, party branding, political communication, and the contested nature of marginal constituencies across Greater Manchester. It also fits stories linking local elections to debates on cost of living, housing and public services, without staged scenes.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 3DX14NY - A campaign volunteer kneels on a pavement edge in a front garden, fixing a bright green VOTE GREEN stake board for the Green Party. The scene is candid and practical: a cordless drill in hand, a wooden stake ready to be driven in, and a corrugated plastic (correx) sign laid out on the ground beside bricks and garden edging. It captures the unglamorous mechanics of UK electioneering, where visibility is built one doorstep at a time through posters, boards, leaflets and volunteers willing to work whatever the weather.
This photograph suits editorial stories about parliamentary by elections, local elections, party organisation, grassroots activism, political marketing and get out the vote operations. It shows how support is signalled publicly by households, how parties read momentum through the spread of garden boards, and how campaigning blends civic engagement with ordinary domestic spaces such as driveways, paths and small front lawns. The lack of crowds keeps the focus on the labour behind political messaging, useful for commentary on turnout, persuasion, volunteer networks, and the realities of ground campaigns.
Garden stake boards also bring practicalities: getting permission from homeowners, choosing positions that are visible but not obstructive, and coping with wind, rain and uneven ground. The crisp typography, bold colour and readable slogan demonstrate political branding designed for quick recognition from passing pedestrians and motorists.
Set in the Greater Manchester context of Denton and the wider Gorton and Denton constituency, the image can accompany reporting on voter realignment, local issues such as housing, cost of living and public services, and the way smaller parties try to convert visibility into votes. It also fits broader themes of democracy, community participation and the role of campaign materials in shaping street level political conversation.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 3DX14P1 - A red Vote Labour garden placard is mounted on a wooden stake outside a typical suburban home in the Gorton and Denton area of Greater Manchester. The bold white lettering and Labour branding are designed for instant recognition from the street, turning a private front garden into a public statement during an election campaign. Behind the sign, rows of brick terraced and semi detached houses, bay windows and parked cars set an everyday North West England context, with winter light and a cloudy sky suggesting a campaigning season when door knocking and leaflet drops happen in all weathers.
This photograph works as straightforward documentary imagery of UK political campaigning at street level. It illustrates how parties rely on supporters' gardens as temporary advertising space and how local streets become part of the visual contest for attention. Garden boards are also a practical tool for momentum: campaign teams notice where signs appear, use them to plan canvassing routes, and interpret clusters of posters as areas of likely support. For voters, they can be cues about neighbourhood sentiment, prompting conversation between neighbours and signalling that political views are not confined to polling day.
With no people visible, the focus stays on the message and the mechanics of electioneering, rather than personalities. The scene can support editorial stories about parliamentary by elections, voter mobilisation, turnout operations, and the ground game that sits behind national headlines. It can also accompany wider coverage of local issues that often shape voting decisions in Greater Manchester, such as cost of living pressures, housing affordability, council services, transport reliability and public trust in politics. The clean composition and strong colour contrast provide useful copy space for headlines and social media crops, while keeping the location readable as a residential Manchester street.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 3DX14P2 - A Reform UK campaign sign staked into a front garden outside a red brick suburban house in Denton, Greater Manchester, promoting the candidate Matt Goodwin and urging support in the Gorton and Denton parliamentary by-election, dated 26th February. The turquoise sign carries the Reform UK branding and the slogan I'm voting Matt Goodwin, with a smaller matching poster visible in the window behind. In the background, two flags fly above the garden hedge, a Union Jack and an England flag, adding a distinctly British, patriotic visual cue to the scene. Shot in late winter, the garden planting looks subdued and evergreen, with bare branches overhead and low seasonal colour, while the sky shows patches of blue with broken cloud in cold daylight. The image captures the everyday, street level nature of UK electioneering, where campaign messaging is planted literally at the boundary between private homes and public streets. It works as an editorial illustration of modern British politics, local campaigning, voter persuasion, and how parties use domestic spaces, signage, and national symbols to signal identity, affiliation, and intent in the run-up to polling day. The photograph also documents the visual language of a contemporary UK by-election, including typography, slogans, and date specific political advertising in a residential neighbourhood.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 3DX14P7 - The entrance to Denton railway station in Tameside, Greater Manchester, showing the station nameboard fixed to a brick wall, a wayfinding sign above, and an information case beside the entrance path. The scene captures the modest and understated character of a suburban British station that has become unusually well known because of how little it is used. Denton is served by an exceptionally sparse passenger timetable, with National Rail stating that the station has only one train a week in each direction on Saturdays. That means just two passenger services per week, making it one of the most unusual working stations on the national network and a familiar curiosity to rail enthusiasts, transport writers and campaigners interested in underused infrastructure. The image works well as an editorial or documentary photograph because it shows not just a platform or sign, but the ordinary public-facing entrance where local rail access begins, reinforcing themes of public transport provision, railway identity, local connectivity and the contrast between maintained infrastructure and minimal passenger use. Denton is on Manchester Road North and managed by Northern, with the platforms below the level of the main entrance. The retained GMPTE style branding on the signage also gives the picture additional value for stories about transport heritage, Greater Manchester public transport history and the evolution of station identity in northern England. Suitable for editorial use on topics such as Britain's quietest stations, least used railway stations, ghost train services, parliamentary services, rail timetable anomalies, suburban transport, station usage figures, local transport policy and the odd corners of the UK rail network

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 3DX156T - Levenshulme, Manchester, this street level scene shows election campaigning imagery in a residential setting: a bold green VOTE GREEN sign for the Green Party mounted on a white stake, with a Palestinian flag visible inside the adjacent window. The composition layers politics and place, using the brick wall, window frame and signage to frame a story about local campaigning, doorstep politics and how international issues can surface in neighbourhood streets through flags and window posters.
This image is suitable for editorial use to illustrate UK elections and by elections, party campaigning, political messaging, voter persuasion, grassroots organising, and the visual language of posters, garden stakes and window signs. It also works for coverage of canvassing, leafleting, get out the vote activity, polling day reminders, and the branding used by parties to build momentum. The Palestinian flag introduces an immediate context of solidarity with Palestine and public concern about the conflict in Gaza.
In some constituencies, Gaza has become a live doorstep issue and parties are aware that voter anger and humanitarian concern can reshape local loyalties. The juxtaposition here can illustrate commentary that the Greens may be trying to pick up pro Gaza votes, alongside more familiar themes such as climate policy, local environment, housing, public services, transport, and cost of living pressures.
With no people visible, the focus is on symbols and communication: the sign's typography, the Green Party logo, and the flag's colours behind glass, suggesting how private homes become public statements during campaign periods. Levenshulme sits within the Gorton and Denton parliamentary constituency and is a diverse inner suburban area of Manchester, making the photograph useful for stories about democracy, civic participation, community identity and political advertising in urban Britain.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 3DX1577 - A circular blue and white I'm Voting Reform UK campaign sign displayed in the front garden of a brick suburban house in Denton, Tameside, Greater Manchester, photographed during the Gorton and Denton parliamentary by-election campaign. The image shows a highly localised piece of British electioneering, where householders use front gardens, fences and domestic space to signal party loyalty, candidate support or wider voter frustration. The bold arrow motif and simplified typography are designed for instant recognition from the street, making the sign effective as both political branding and neighbourhood visibility. Scenes like this are useful as editorial illustrations of constituency campaigning, doorstep politics, suburban voting behaviour, grassroots party presence and the visual language of modern UK elections. Denton sits within the M34 postcode district and forms part of Greater Manchester's eastern urban belt, giving the picture added relevance for stories about North West England, commuter-belt politics, working and lower-middle income suburbs, and shifting party support in towns beyond central Manchester. The Gorton and Denton by-election took place on 26 February 2026, with Reform UK fielding Matt Goodwin as its candidate, giving this image clear documentary value as campaign ephemera from a real and time-specific electoral contest. The ordinary residential setting, clear winter light and open blue sky also strengthen the picture as a record of how national political messages are inserted into everyday streetscapes. Suitable for editorial use on UK politics, by-elections, Reform UK, campaign communications, voter identity, suburbia, local democracy, party marketing and visible support within residential communities.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 3DTYD7B - A close-up photograph of a barber shop window notice in Beverley, East Riding of Yorkshire, England, showing a prominently displayed Cash Only sign with the instruction Please try and have the correct amount above a printed price list for haircuts. The image captures a familiar piece of everyday British high street life, where small independent businesses still rely on simple paper notices taped to windows to communicate payment terms, opening times and prices to customers. In this case the wording suggests a practical attempt to reduce delays, avoid card processing and manage small-change handling, making the scene useful for editorial themes around cash payments, independent retail, customer communication and the continued role of cash in local service businesses. The visible styling of the notice, plain paper sheets pinned or taped in place, and the straightforward language all add realism and documentary value, giving the picture wider use for stories about high street survival, neighbourhood services, traditional barbering, inflation-sensitive pricing and the working routines of small town businesses. Beverley is a historic market town in the East Riding of Yorkshire known for its compact centre, independent shops and strong local identity, which strengthens the image's relevance for regional, retail and place-based editorial use. The photograph works well for articles, blogs and features on Yorkshire town centres, small business signage, retail payment policies, barber shops, local commerce, and the visual details of everyday street-level Britain. Suitable for editorial use on independent traders, customer notices, shop windows, cash-only businesses, East Yorkshire market towns, and documentary high street photography

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 3DCX6B8 - A campaign poster by Housing Action Now displayed on a street pole in Dublin city centre, advertising an All-Island Housing Demonstration scheduled for Saturday 5 July at the Garden of Remembrance, Parnell Square East, Dublin 1 (D01 AX82). The poster calls for action on the housing crisis, framing housing as a political choice and urging collective mobilisation in support of communities affected by rising rents, homelessness and housing insecurity.
The Garden of Remembrance is a highly symbolic civic space in Dublin, often used as a gathering point for demonstrations and public assemblies. Its use as the meeting location situates the housing protest within a broader tradition of political expression and remembrance in Ireland's capital.
The poster references CATU (Community Action Tenants Union), a grassroots organisation active across Ireland campaigning on tenants' rights, housing affordability and security of tenure. Groups such as Housing Action Now and CATU have become increasingly visible as Ireland's housing crisis has intensified, driven by factors including supply shortages, high rents, rising house prices and demographic pressure.
Displayed against a backdrop of brick residential buildings, the poster visually connects protest messaging with the everyday urban environment most affected by housing pressures. Images like this are commonly used editorially to illustrate stories about housing policy, social movements, cost-of-living crises and contemporary Irish politics.
Photographed in daylight with legible text and surrounding urban context, the image offers strong editorial value for use in journalism, academic discussion, social policy analysis and reporting on public protest and civic activism in Ireland.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 3CPAX84 - This image shows an original hand drawn and photocopied poster from 1988 advertising an appearance by Frank Sidebottom, the surreal comic creation of Chris Sievey. The poster announces that Frank Sidebottom would cut the ribbon for the official opening of the Timperley Aquatics water garden on 2 April 1988, at 10.30am GMT, with a live appearance lasting five minutes.
The artwork features Frank Sidebottom's instantly recognisable wide eyed papier mache head, rendered in a deliberately naïve black and white illustration style. Surrounding text and drawings, including fish motifs and playful handwritten lettering, reflect the DIY, low budget aesthetic that defined Sievey's work and the wider British alternative comedy scene of the 1980s.
The poster references Radio Timperley and includes local contact details, reinforcing the strong connection between Frank Sidebottom and community level events in south Manchester. Rather than mainstream venues, Sievey frequently performed at small local openings, shops, and civic events, using absurdity and deadpan humour to parody celebrity culture and public ceremonies.
As a piece of ephemera, the poster offers a valuable snapshot of grassroots British cultural history. It illustrates how alternative comedy, outsider art, and local radio intersected in late twentieth century Manchester, and why Frank Sidebottom became a lasting cult figure associated with Timperley, Greater Manchester, and northern English eccentricity.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 3BKDJH6 - A close-up view of a housing protest poster attached to a street pole in Dublin city centre, Ireland, photographed in June 2025. The poster advertises a planned demonstration at Dáil Éireann and describes the housing situation as an emergency, reflecting widespread public concern over housing supply, affordability, and homelessness in Ireland.
The sign features bold red and yellow typography designed for high visibility in an urban environment and references organised protest activity involving speeches, music, and public participation. Such posters are a common feature of Dublin's streetscape during periods of heightened political debate and social mobilisation.
Ireland has experienced sustained pressure on housing availability in recent years, particularly in major cities such as Dublin, leading to regular protests, policy discussions, and public campaigns focused on housing provision and reform. Temporary street posters like this document how political messaging is communicated at ground level in public spaces.
This image is suitable for editorial use illustrating housing protests, urban political activism, social policy debates, cost of living issues, public demonstrations in Ireland, and contemporary civic life in European capital cities.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2X2CG2W - This image shows a large, colourful LEEDS sign mounted within the interior of Leeds railway station in West Yorkshire, England. The sign uses bold lettering across a series of bright, patterned panels, creating a distinctive visual identity that clearly announces the city to arriving and departing passengers. Positioned above the station concourse area, the sign forms part of the station's wayfinding and branding, reinforcing Leeds as a major regional destination.
Leeds railway station is one of the busiest stations outside London and a key transport hub in the north of England. Serving the East Coast Main Line and numerous regional routes, it provides vital connections between Leeds, London, Manchester, Sheffield, York, the North East, and Scotland. The station plays a central role in daily commuter travel as well as long-distance intercity services, reflecting Leeds' importance as a commercial, financial, cultural, and educational centre.
The modern interior setting, combined with contemporary graphic design, reflects ongoing investment in passenger experience and urban transport infrastructure. This image is suitable for editorial and commercial use relating to rail travel, public transport, city identity, tourism, urban regeneration, and the role of major railway stations as gateways to UK cities.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2T00PEF - High Speed 2 (HS2) is a planned high-speed railway line and network of passenger train services in England. It will consist of a new railway line between the West Midlands and London, with a branch to Birmingham, and a network of train services that will use the new line and existing conventional track to reach their destinations in the Midlands, Northern England, and Scotland. HS2 will be Britain's second purpose-built high-speed line, the first being High Speed 1, which connects London to the Channel Tunnel. The majority of the project is planned to be completed between 2029 and 2033. A 2019 review of the project, as then planned, estimated that it would cost up to £87 billion
however, this is estimated to have risen to approximately £100 billion in 2023.
The new line will run between London Euston railway station and Fradley in southern Staffordshire, with stations at Old Oak Common, in northwest London, and Birmingham Interchange, near Solihull. There will be spurs to a planned station in central Birmingham and a junction with the West Coast Main Line (WCML) at Handsacre, near Lichfield. The rolling stock will run at a maximum speed of 360 km/h (225 mph) and will operate on both HS2 track and existing conventional track
On 4 October 2023 the Prime Minister Rishi Sunak announced that Phase 2 would be abandoned and that responsibility for the Euston connection would be removed from HS2 Ltd

In 2023 it is the 1100th anniversary of Thelwall being declared a city'. There is to be an open meeting on Wednesday 30thNovember for local groups and individuals to gather interest and ideas, and set up an organising committee. The meeting will take place at the Royal British Legion, doors opening at 7pm for the meeting to start at 7.30. Representatives and individual members of all village organisations will be very welcome.
We've been looking back at the way the village came together to celebrate 1000 years in 1923 and 1050 years in 1973. In 1923, Thelwall's celebrations helped to fund a new war memorial (Bell Lane), dedicated in 1925. So successful was the event that the pub was drunk dry and the caterers ran out of food and drinks. In May 1973, Thelwall Youth and Community Association organised Festival 1050 a four day event with a folk festival, a piano recital by Stephen Hough, an arts and crafts exhibition in the school and a procession that saw Miss Thelwall (Carol Moss) brought across the Manchester Ship Canal by the ferry boat where she was met by the Thelwall Rose Queen (Julie Lager) to a fanfare. They then joined a procession of vintage cars round the village.
If you have any memorabilia, photos, films or memories from these events, we would like to hear from you. You can email thelwallhistorygroup@gmail.com

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2RECE2H - Meadowbank Stadium (officially the Meadowbank Sports Centre) is a multi-purpose sports facility located in the Meadowbank area of Edinburgh, Scotland. Built on the site of the earlier New Meadowbank and Old Meadowbank sports venues, it was originally built to host the 1970 Commonwealth Games. It also hosted the Games in 1986, becoming the first venue to host the Games twice. It is the current home of Scottish League One side Edinburgh City.
The stadium has also regularly hosted football. It was the home ground of Scottish Football League team Meadowbank Thistle between 1974 and 1995, becoming the first all-seated football ground in the UK in the process, it hosted senior non-league football as the home ground of Edinburgh City. League football returned to Meadowbank in 2016 following City's promotion to the Scottish Professional Football League. The Meadowbank complex also hosted Leith Athletic, which played on the Meadowbank 3G artificial pitch adjacent to the main stadium since 2013.
In the early months of 2019 the stadium was demolished and work begun on construction of its replacement. In 2022, following the completion of construction, Edinburgh City returned to Meadowbank.
Meadowbank Stadium was also used for rugby union as the home venue of Edinburgh Rugby between 2002 and 2004.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2R9J0E4 - The Royal College of Nursing (RCN) is a registered trade union[2] in the United Kingdom for those in the profession of nursing. It was founded in 1916, receiving its royal charter in 1928. Queen Elizabeth II was the patron until her death in 2022. The majority of members are registered nurses
however student nurses and healthcare assistants are also members. There is also a category of membership, at a reduced cost, for retired people.
The RCN describes its mission as representing nurses and nursing, promoting excellence in practice and shaping health policies. It has a network of stewards, safety representatives and union learning representatives as well as advice services for members. Services include a main library in London, and regional libraries. The RCN Institute provides courses for nurses.
History
The College of Nursing Ltd was founded on 27 March 1916, with 34 members, as a professional organisation for trained nurses
In 2018, after a pay agreement was not clearly explained to the membership, the Chief Executive and General Secretary Janet Davies resigned and Dame Donna Kinnair was appointed in an acting capacity. She was confirmed in the role in April 2019. A motion of no confidence in the RCN Council was called shortly afterwards and passed in September 2018 with 78% of votes, but on a turnout when only 3.7% of the membership voted. As well as the Chief Executive and General Secretary, the Director of Member Relations had previously resigned. Twelve of the 17 council members resigned, 10 of them standing for re-election in the subsequent election.
In 2019, the RCN's first strike limited to Northern Ireland, over staffing and pay issuestook place
In 2022, the RCN held a strike ballot over pay, held separately across NHS trusts and boards. Its members went on strike as part of the 20222023 National Health Service strikes. The RCN commented that from 2010 (the start of the government's austerity programme) to 2022, pay for nurses had fallen by 20%

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2R9J0J1 - A key worker, critical worker or essential worker is a public-sector or private-sector employee who is considered to provide an essential service. The term has been used[when?] in the United Kingdom in the context of workers who may find it difficult to buy property in the area where they work. The term was also used by the UK government during announcements regarding school shutdowns invoked in response to the COVID-19 pandemic to indicate parents whose occupations entitled them to continue sending their children to schools which were otherwise shut down by government policy, as well as teachers and LSAs at those schools.
A key worker is a public sector or private sector employee who is considered to provide an essential service.
Key workers jobs that cannot be done remotely:-
Energy. Many of the jobs in this field, which includes mining and oil extraction, cannot be done remotely.
First responders. These are the people communities depend on in emergencies, such as paramedics, firefighters and police.
Education and child care. Making sure children can grow academically even during a pandemic means vaccinating teachers, their support staff, and daycare employees.
Agriculture and food production. Many of the outbreaks at the onset of the pandemic were in meatpacking facilities and other food-processing plants.
Critical retail. (i.e. grocery stores, hardware stores, auto mechanics etc.). Keeping supermarket employees safe makes it possible for others to stay fed while restaurants are temporarily shut down.
Critical trades. (i.e. construction workers, electricians, plumbers, etc.)
Manufacturing. These jobs (producing goods) cannot be done remotely.
Corrections workers. Prisons are the types of closed facilities where the coronavirus can spread quickly.
Postal Service workers. This group makes sure vital packages get delivered, along with providing other key services.
Public transit workers.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2RAJ36M - Picketing is a form of protest in which people (called pickets or picketers) congregate outside a place of work or location where an event is taking place. Often, this is done in an attempt to dissuade others from going in (crossing the picket line), but it can also be done to draw public attention to a cause. Picketers normally endeavor to be non-violent. It can have a number of aims, but is generally to put pressure on the party targeted to meet particular demands or cease operations. This pressure is achieved by harming the business through loss of customers and negative publicity, or by discouraging or preventing workers or customers from entering the site and thereby preventing the business from operating normally.
Picketing is a common tactic used by trade unions during strikes, who will try to prevent dissident members of the union, members of other unions and non-unionised workers from working. Those who cross the picket line and work despite the strike are known pejoratively as scabs.
In the UK mass picketing was made illegal under the Trade Disputes and Trade Unions Act 1927, moved by the leaders of what would soon be National Labour, after the 1926 General Strike. Otherwise picketing was banned by the Liberal-tabled Criminal Law Amendment Act 1871 but is decriminalised by the Conservative-tabled Conspiracy and Protection of Property Act 1875. The Trade Union and Labour Relations (Consolidation) Act 1992 gives protection, under civil law, for pickets who are acting in connection with an industrial dispute at or near their workplace who are using their picketing peacefully to obtain or communicate information or persuading any person to work or abstain from working. However, many employers seek specific injunctions to limit the effect of picketing by their door if they can evidence a high likelihood of intimidation or, in general, on non-peaceful behaviour and/or any that significant numbers of the picketers are or will in all likelihood be non-workers

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2RC3CDJ - Unionist boycott will not alter police reform' - more at https://www.irishexaminer.com/news/arid-30021664.html
Police reform in Northern Ireland will not be altered if unionists boycott the board overseeing the changes, the British Government insisted today.
A Northern Ireland Office spokesman rejected claims from the anti-Good Friday Agreement Democratic Unionists that unionists could secure a better policing plan if they united and opposed the current proposals.
As the Rev Ian Paisley's party met at Stormont to consider its response to the Government's plan, the NIO said the package was ''non-negotiable''.
''The Government's position was spelt out very clearly by the Secretary of State on Tuesday,'' a spokesman said.
''The implementation plan is non-negotiable. No rethink will take place. This is the plan.''
The NIO spokesman was responding to DUP deputy leader Peter Robinson's claim that if David Trimble's Ulster Unionists agreed to join them in withholding support for the plan, the reforms could not go ahead.
Signalling his party would not take its seats on the Policing Board if the UUP did not nominate representatives, he claimed: At the meeting we held recently with John Reid, he indicated the Government could not proceed with the plan if he could not get, on the one hand the support of either the SDLP, Sinn Fein or both, and on the other, the UUP, DUP or both.
That was the criteria operated the last time around. The Government's plans were stopped because neither the SDLP nor Sinn Fein would support it and as a result the reforms were made much more acceptable to nationalists in the SDLP.
The logical argument, therefore, is if unionists do not support this implementation plan, then it cannot succeed. The Government will have to amend it to make it more acceptable to unionists and go back to negotiations.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2RCC5PC - This image shows a vintage advertising poster produced by the Cooperative Wholesale Society to promote Penguin umbrellas, a specialist product sold through cooperative retail outlets across Britain. The poster features a humorous illustrated scene of people sheltering beneath umbrellas, accompanied by the slogan It never rains in Manchester but you'll see penguins, playing on the city's reputation for wet weather and dry northern wit.
The Cooperative Wholesale Society, commonly known as CWS, was the manufacturing and wholesale arm of the British cooperative movement, supplying goods to local Co-op stores nationwide. Advertising material such as this poster combined practical product promotion with humour and strong graphic identity, helping distinguish cooperative goods from private retailers during the mid twentieth century.
The illustration style, limited colour palette, and bold typography are characteristic of postwar British commercial art, reflecting a period when posters were a primary means of mass communication. The use of penguins as a visual motif reinforced brand recognition for Penguin umbrellas while appealing to family audiences and everyday consumers.
Closely associated with Manchester and the wider Lancashire cooperative tradition, this poster also reflects the cultural values of the movement, including accessibility, shared ownership, and trust in everyday essentials. The image is well suited for editorial use covering British social history, cooperative retailing, vintage advertising, graphic design, and the cultural identity of northern England.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2R55JD7 - This image shows a Victorian industrial poster headed Rules to be Observed in This Mill, issued in Haslingden, Lancashire, during the mid-19th century. The document sets out a detailed list of rules governing the behaviour, timekeeping, and conduct of workers employed in a textile mill, reflecting the highly disciplined nature of factory life during Britain's Industrial Revolution.
The rules include fines for lateness, talking, leaving machinery unattended, damaging equipment, or disobeying overseers, illustrating the rigid control exercised by mill owners over their workforce. Such notices were commonly displayed in cotton mills across Lancashire, where large numbers of men, women, and children were employed in spinning and weaving under demanding conditions.
The dense typography, formal language, and hierarchical tone of the poster convey the power imbalance between employers and workers in Victorian industrial society. References to overseers, deductions from wages, and dismissal for misconduct provide valuable insight into the everyday realities of 19th-century labour relations before the introduction of modern employment rights and health and safety protections.
Haslingden, located in the Rossendale Valley, was an important centre of the Lancashire cotton industry, and documents like this form a key part of the region's industrial heritage. Today, such posters are studied as primary sources for understanding social history, labour reform, and the lived experience of factory workers during Britain's transformation into an industrial nation.
This image is well suited to editorial use covering the Industrial Revolution, labour history, Victorian Britain, social inequality, textile manufacturing, and the historical development of workplace regulation in the UK.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2R3YBA2 - This image shows a large-scale Obey street art mural by Shepard Fairey on Hanbury Street in the Spitalfields area of East London. The mural features Fairey's distinctive visual style, with a bold, stylised face rendered in high-contrast colours and graphic symmetry, immediately recognisable from his long-running Obey Giant campaign.
The artwork occupies a prominent brick wall in one of London's most active street art districts, close to Brick Lane and surrounded by layers of graffiti tags, posters, and paste-ups. This constant turnover of visual material reflects the dynamic, contested nature of public space in urban street art culture, where murals are frequently added to, defaced, or recontextualised over time.
Shepard Fairey's work is closely associated with political commentary, counterculture, and anti-authoritarian themes, using visual language influenced by propaganda, punk graphics, and activist design. Its presence in Spitalfields aligns with the area's history of radical politics, migration, and creative subcultures.
The image was photographed in daylight, capturing not only the mural itself but also the surrounding street-level detail, including posters, refuse bags, and street furniture, which ground the artwork in everyday urban life. This photograph is well suited to editorial use covering street art, contemporary urban culture, political art, graffiti, London neighbourhoods, and the global influence of Shepard Fairey's Obey movement.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2RADRX8 - A brightly coloured Empire Theatre poster advertising the stage production A Night in Venice, displayed within a decorative illuminated frame surrounded by multicoloured lights. The poster features bold, expressive typography and illustrated artwork typical of theatrical advertising, designed to attract audiences and convey a sense of spectacle and entertainment.
Prominently credited on the poster are performers and contributors including Denis Noble, Joyce Blackham, Richard Curnock, Serafina Dileo, Raf de la Torre, Juliet Morell, and musical director Anatole Fistoulari. The overall design reflects a traditional approach to theatre promotion, combining artistic illustration with detailed cast and production information.
Photographed indoors under theatrical lighting, the image documents the visual culture of live performance and the enduring appeal of printed theatre posters as artefacts of entertainment history. It illustrates how theatres have historically used illuminated displays and striking graphic design to promote shows, contributing to the atmosphere and anticipation associated with live stage productions.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2R3JR6A - This image shows an interior display at the House of Terror Museum on Andrássy út in Budapest, Hungary, featuring walls densely covered with Soviet-era propaganda posters, slogans, and illustrations. The materials are presented in both Hungarian and Russian, reflecting Hungary's position within the Soviet sphere of influence during the Cold War and the imposition of communist ideology following the Second World War.
The posters use the visual language of socialist realism, portraying idealised workers, peasants, soldiers, and party officials, alongside slogans promoting loyalty to the state, collective labour, industrial production, and ideological conformity. Bold colours, heroic figures, and optimistic imagery contrast sharply with the historical reality of political repression, surveillance, and restricted freedoms experienced under communist rule.
The display is intentionally overwhelming, with overlapping images and text forming a wallpaper-like collage that mirrors the saturation of propaganda in everyday life during the period. The mixture of languages underlines the dominance of Soviet authority over national identity, while also illustrating how messaging was adapted for local audiences within Hungary.
Photographed indoors under artificial lighting, the image emphasises the texture, colour, and density of the printed material, making it suitable for editorial use addressing themes of totalitarianism, propaganda, Cold War history, visual culture, human rights, and the legacy of communism in Central and Eastern Europe.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2R0X33R - Deep Purple are an English rock band formed in London in 1968. They are considered to be among the pioneers of heavy metal and modern hard rock, but their musical approach has changed over the years. Originally formed as a psychedelic rock and progressive rock band, they shifted to a heavier sound with their 1970 album Deep Purple in Rock. Deep Purple (together with Led Zeppelin and Black Sabbath) have been referred to as the unholy trinity of British hard rock and heavy metal in the early to mid-seventies. They were listed in the 1975 Guinness Book of World Records as the globe's loudest band for a 1972 concert at London's Rainbow Theatre and have sold over 100 million albums worldwide
Current line up:
Ian Paice, Roger Glover, Ian Gillan

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2PKA5JD - Why do a sleepout in the Cathedral?
The Whitechapel Centre is Liverpool's leading homeless charity, helping those living without a home. Liverpool Cathedral is a vibrant, active place that helps the people of the city in many ways through schools, family workshops, foodbanks and community markets, volunteering, or just being a safe place to keep warm. Together, we are working really hard to make sure everyone in Liverpool can have a place to call home and live to their full potential. Unfortunately, more and more people need our help each year.
We know that many people want to help those they see sleeping on the streets or who are struggling but it can be difficult to know the best way to help. By taking part in the Cathedral Sleepout and raising as much money as possible, you'll enable us to give people food, find them a home and teach them new skills.
The Cathedral Sleepout is a very rare opportunity to sleep inside the fantastic Liverpool Cathedral. The Sleepout doesn't compare to sleeping outside on the streets, but we want to help people understand how difficult it might be when you don't have a place to go.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2PFAAAD - The Fall Extricate tour opened 01/03/1990 at Poole arts centre, closing 26/03/1990 at the Top rank Brighton - Cog Sinister
Extricate is the 12th album by post-punk band the Fall. It was made immediately after bandleader Mark E. Smith divorced guitarist Brix Smith. Brix's departure helped define the sound of this album: her background vocals and relatively pop-oriented guitar, which had become mainstays of The Fall, are noticeably absent in this release. In one of the more unusual events in the group's career, she was replaced by founding former member Martin Bramah, who had previously left the group in 1979 to form his own group Blue Orchids.
Lead-off single Telephone Thing could have been seen as a nod to the Manchester scene of the time as the sound is quite similar to the dance-influenced music that was being released by Happy Mondays and The Stone Roses in 1989. However, its origins were in Smith's previous collaboration with Coldcut on their track I'm in Deep, which, in turn, led to Coldcut producing the track and Black Monk Theme Part II, one of two tracks by 60s garage band The Monks to be covered on the album (the other being Black Monk Theme The Fall retitled both tracks). Elsewhere, Bramah, appearing on his first Fall album since Live at the Witch Trials adds a distinctly raw, even rockabilly sound to some of the songs. However, the album's best-known track was one of the least typical of the group's catalogue: Bill Is Dead, a slow-paced tender love song which topped John Peel's Festive Fifty that year, the only occasion in the DJ's lifetime when his favourite band would do so. Although originally conceived by Smith and Craig Scanlon as a parody of The Smiths, Smith changed lyrical tack when he decided Scanlon's music deserved better, delivering a highly personal lyric. However, at Smith's insistence, it was not released as a single.
The critical reception to Extricate was largely positive

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2MKF77X - Buzzcocks are an English punk rock band formed in Bolton, England in 1976 by singer-songwriter-guitarist Pete Shelley and singer-songwriter Howard Devoto. They are regarded as a seminal influence on the Manchester music scene, the independent record label movement, punk rock, power pop, and pop punk. They achieved commercial success with singles that fused pop craftsmanship with rapid-fire punk energy. These singles were collected on Singles Going Steady, an acclaimed compilation album described by music journalist and critic, Ned Raggett, as a punk masterpiece.
Devoto and Shelley chose the name Buzzcocks after reading the headline, It's the Buzz, Cock!, in a review of the TV series Rock Follies in Time Out magazine. The buzz is the excitement of playing on stage
cock is northern English slang meaning friend. They thought it captured the excitement of the nascent punk scene, as well as having humorous sexual connotations following Pete Shelley's time working in a Bolton adult shop.
Devoto left the band in 1977, after which Pete Shelley became the principal singer-songwriter. After releasing three albums, as well as Singles Going Steady, the band broke up in 1981 following a dispute with their then-record label, but reunited in 1989, since releasing six more albums. Shelley died in 2018,[9] but the band has remained active. Steve Diggle, the guitarist and co-founder of the band, is now singer. They added a new guitarist Mani Perazzoli. They are still touring.
Their first UA Buzzcocks single, Orgasm Addict, was a playful examination of compulsive sexuality that was, and remains, uncommonly bold. The BBC refused to play the song, and the single did not sell well. Later, more ambiguous songs staked out a territory defined by Shelley's bisexuality and punk's aversion to serious examination of human sexuality. The next single, What Do I Get? reached the UK top 50 chart. Lipstick, the B-side to Promises, shared the same ascending progression of note

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2K1Y84F - The basic verb phrase carry on means to continue doing something, but here, it specifically means to persevere and is often associated a British stiff upper lip.
According the UK's official History of Government blog, the British Ministry of Information developed a series of three posters in 1939 to rally and reassure its populace as World War II ramped up. The third, and now iconic, poster flashed Keep Calm and Carry On in white, capital letters underneath an image of a crown on a bright, grabbingly red background. Who, exactly, coined the slogan is unclear. The other two posters featured equally comforting slogans: Your Courage, Your Cheerfulness, Your Resolution
Will Bring Us Victory and Freedom is in Peril
Defend it with all Your Might.
The British government printed nearly 2.5 million copies, reserving them to boost morale in case of a particularly bad German bombing. It never did display the posters, and most were recycled in 1940 during a wartime paper shortage.
The Keep Calm and Carry On poster languished in number and obscurity until Stuart Manley discovered a copy in 2000 tucked away in a box of old books for his bookshop, Barter Books, in Alnwick, England. His wife and co-owner, Mary, framed and displayed the poster. Patrons fell in love with it, and the booksellers printed tens of thousands of copies over the decade.
The poster skyrocketed in popularity after the 2008 recession, explained Foreign Affairs Correspondent Jon Henley in 2009 for The Guardian. Social psychologist Alain Samson observed for Henley that [t]he words are also particularly positive, reassuring, in a period of uncertainty, anxiety, even perhaps of cynicism.
Since then, keep calm and carry on exploded as a meme. Everyone from crafters to tweeters have riffed on the slogan. Variations typically follow the template Keep Calm and X: Keep Calm and Drink Tea or Drink Beer, swapping out the crown icon for a teacup or pint glass

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2K0KPGX - Penny Lane is a road in the south Liverpool suburb of Mossley Hill. The name also applies to the area surrounding its junction with Smithdown Road and Allerton Road, and to the roundabout at Smithdown Place that was the location for a major bus terminus, originally an important tram junction of Liverpool Corporation Tramways. The roundabout was a frequent stopping place for John Lennon, Paul McCartney and George Harrison during their years as schoolchildren and students. Bus journeys via Penny Lane and the area itself subsequently became familiar elements in the early years of the LennonMcCartney songwriting partnership. In 2009, McCartney reflected:
Penny Lane was kind of nostalgic, but it was really [about] a place that John and I knew ... I'd get a bus to his house and I'd have to change at Penny Lane, or the same with him to me, so we often hung out at that terminus, like a roundabout. It was a place that we both knew, and so we both knew the things that turned up in the story.
Lennon's original lyrics for In My Life had included a reference to Penny Lane. Soon after the Beatles recorded In My Life in October 1965, McCartney mentioned to an interviewer that he wanted to write a song about Penny Lane. A year later, he was spurred to write the song once presented with Lennon's Strawberry Fields Forever. McCartney also cited Dylan Thomas's nostalgic poem Fern Hill as an inspiration for Penny Lane. Lennon co-wrote the lyrics with McCartney. He recalled in a 1970 interview: The bank was there, and that was where the trams sheds were and people waiting and the inspector stood there, the fire engines were down there. It was reliving childhood

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2JX2T8T - The Advanced Passenger Train (APT) was a tilting high speed train developed by British Rail during the 1970s and early 1980s, for use on the West Coast Main Line (WCML). The WCML contained many curves, and the APT pioneered the concept of active tilting to address these, a feature that has since been copied on designs around the world. The experimental APT-E achieved a new British railway speed record on 10 August 1975 when it reached 152.3 miles per hour (245.1 km/h), only to be bested by the service prototype APT-P at 162.2 miles per hour (261.0 km/h) in December 1979, a record that stood until September 2006.
Development of the service prototypes dragged on, and by the late 1970s the design had been under construction for a decade and the trains were still not ready for service. The election of Margaret Thatcher brought matters to a head and she alluded to funding cuts for the project. Facing the possibility of cancellation, BR management decided to put the prototypes into service, with the first runs along the London-Glasgow route taking place in December 1981. The result was a media circus when every problem large or small received front-page coverage and the entire project derided as an example of BR's incompetence. The trains were withdrawn from service again by the end of the month, to the great amusement of the press.
In spite of the APT's troubled history, the design was highly influential and directly inspired other high speed trains such as the Pendolino. The considerable work on electrification that was carried out hand-in-hand with APT was put to good use with newer non-tilting designs like the British Rail Class 91. The APT's tilt system was returned to the WCML on the British Rail Class 390, based on the Fiat Ferroviaria tilting train design and built by Alstom.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2JPDJC2 - Bulmers cider is one of a number of brands owned by British cider maker H. P. Bulmer of Hereford. It is one of the biggest selling British bottled cider brands in the UK because it has the highest concentration of apples, with a number of variants including Bulmers Original & Pear. It should not be confused with Bulmers Irish Cider, sold outside the Republic of Ireland as Magners.
History
Fred and Percy Bulmer grew the apples at their family orchard at Credenhill in Herefordshire which would be later used to make the cider for which they became known. Production was initially at Ryelands Street in Hereford, the original buildings, including cider cellars survives today as the Cider Museum and King Offa Distillery. Production moved to the current Plough Lane site in the late 1970s. Today HP Bulmer makes 65% of the UK's five hundred million litres of cider sold annually, and the bulk of the UK's cider exports. From 1937 to 1949, Bulmers operated with Wm. Magners of Clonmel, expanding into Irish distribution markets. From 1949 Magners withdrew from this partnership but retained rights to trade under the name HP Bulmer Ltd in Ireland.
In 2003, the Hereford-based firm was bought for £278 million by Scottish & Newcastle (S&N) with the loss of some 200 jobs initially. In 2008, S&N were bought for £7.8 billion by the Carlsberg and Heineken groups. Bulmers now only survives as a brand name and subsidiary of the Dutch Heineken group, with operations in Hereford scaled back to focus mainly on the production of cider.
During spring 2006, the company relaunched Bulmers Original in the UK, aimed at the served over ice market, which had grown in popularity over the past few years. Bulmers Original is a 4.5% ABV cider, primarily sold in pint bottles (568 ml). In November 2007, Bulmers pear cider was launched

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2JJKNF9 - Peaky Blinders is a British period crime drama television series created by Steven Knight. Set in Birmingham, it follows the exploits of the Peaky Blinders crime gang in the direct aftermath of the First World War. The fictional gang is loosely based on a real urban youth gang of the same name who were active in the city from the 1880s to the 1910s
Peaky Blinders is a crime drama centred on a family of mixed Irish Traveller and Romani origins based in Birmingham, England, starting in 1919, several months after the end of the First World War. It centres on the Peaky Blinders street gang and their ambitious, cunning crime boss Tommy Shelby (Murphy). The gang comes to the attention of Major Chester Campbell (Neill), a detective chief inspector in the Royal Irish Constabulary sent over by Winston Churchill from Belfast, where he had been sent to clean up the city of the Irish Republican Army flying columns, the Communist Party of Great Britain, street gangs, and common criminals. Winston Churchill (played by Andy Nyman in series 1 and Richard McCabe in series 2) charges him with suppressing disorder and uprising in Birmingham and recovering a stolen cache of arms meant to be shipped to Libya. The first series concludes on 3 December 1919Black Star Day, the event where the Peaky Blinders plan to take over Billy Kimber's betting pitches at the Worcester Races.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2JJG0D4 - On 14 June 2017, a high-rise fire broke out in the 24-storey Grenfell Tower block of flats in North Kensington, West London, at 00:54 BST. 72 people died, including two who later died in hospital, with more than 70 others being injured and 223 people escaping. It was the deadliest structural fire in the United Kingdom since the 1988 Piper Alpha oil-platform disaster and the worst UK residential fire since World War II.
The fire was started by an electrical fault in a refrigerator on the fourth floor. It spread rapidly up the building's exterior, bringing fire and smoke to all the residential floors. This was due to the building's new cladding and the external insulation, since the air gap between them enabled the stack effect. The fire burned for about 60 hours before finally being extinguished. More than 250 London Fire Brigade firefighters and 70 fire engines from stations across London were involved in efforts to control the fire and rescue residents. More than 100 London Ambulance Service crews on at least 20 ambulances attended the scene, joined by specialist paramedics from the Ambulance Service's Hazardous Area Response Team. The Metropolitan Police and London's Air Ambulance also assisted the rescue effort.
Five years after 72 people lost their lives in the Grenfell Tower fire, which broke out on June 14, 2017, the UK government has announced plans to ban the type of cladding used to cover the external walls of the North Kensington high-rise. These revised building regulations are to be put into effect in December 2022.
The inquiry into the disaster concluded, in its first report in 2019, that this cladding polyethylene-filled aluminium composite panels, to be specific was responsible for the fire spreading so quickly..

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2M0F6JK - Ziggy Stardust is a fictional character created by English musician David Bowie, and was Bowie's stage persona during 1972 and 1973. The eponymous character of the song Ziggy Stardust and its parent album The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders from Mars (1972), Ziggy Stardust was retained for Bowie's subsequent concert tour through the United Kingdom, Japan and North America, during which Bowie performed as the character backed by his band The Spiders from Mars. Bowie continued the character in his next album Aladdin Sane (1973), which he described as Ziggy goes to America. Bowie retired the character on 3 July 1973 at a concert at the Hammersmith Odeon in London, which was filmed and released on the documentary Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders from Mars.
As conveyed in the title song and album, Ziggy Stardust is an androgynous, alien rock star who came to Earth before an impending apocalyptic disaster to deliver a message of hope. After accumulating a large following of fans and being worshipped as a messiah, Ziggy eventually dies as a victim of his own fame and excess. The character was meant to symbolise an over-the-top, sexually liberated rock star and serve as a commentary on a society in which celebrities are worshipped. Influences for the character included English singer Vince Taylor, Texan musician the Legendary Stardust Cowboy, and Japanese kabuki theatre.
Ziggy Stardust's exuberant fashion made the character and Bowie himself staples in the glam rock repertoire well into the 1970s, defining what the genre would become. The success of the character and its iconic look flung Bowie into international superstardom. Rolling Stone wrote that Bowie's Ziggy Stardust was the alter ego that changed music forever and sent his career into orbit.
Ziggy Stardust's look and message of youth liberation are now representative of one of Bowie's most memorable eras.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2JHX7CA - Itsukushima (厳島) is an island in the western part of the Inland Sea of Japan, located in the northwest of Hiroshima Bay. It is popularly known as Miyajima (宮島), which in Japanese means Shrine Island. The island is one of Hayashi Gahō's Three Views of Japan specified in 1643. Itsukushima is part of the city of Hatsukaichi in Hiroshima Prefecture. The island was part of the former town of Miyajima before the 2005 merger with Hatsukaichi.
Itsukushima is famous for the Itsukushima Shrine, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. According to records, the shrine was established in the time of Empress Suiko. The warrior-courtier Taira no Kiyomori gave the shrine its present form. In 1555, Mōri Motonari defeated Sue Harukata at the Battle of Miyajima. Toyotomi Hideyoshi built a large building, the Senjō-kaku, on a hill above the shrine.
Itsukushima has a number of temples, including Toyokuni Shrine with a five-storied pagoda, and Daiganji Temple - one of the three most famous Benzaiten temples of Japan. The island is also famous for its upper hill side cherry blossoms and maple leaf autumn foliage.
The island of Itsukushima, including the waters around it (part of Seto Inland Sea), lies within Setonaikai National Park. This sea is affected by strong tides. At low tide, the bottom of the sea is exposed past the island's torii. At high tide, the sea covers all the previously exposed seabed mud and fills areas underneath the shrine boardwalk.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2ADE44D - Hindi cinema, often known as Bollywood and formerly as Bombay cinema, is the Indian Hindi-language film industry based in Mumbai (formerly Bombay). The term is a portmanteau of Bombay and Hollywood. The industry is related to Cinema of South India and other Indian film industries, making up Indian Cinemathe world's largest by number of feature films produced.
In 2017, Indian cinema produced 1,986 feature films, with Bollywood as its largest filmmaker, producing 364 Hindi films the same year. Bollywood represents 43 percent of Indian net box-office revenue
Tamil and Telugu cinema represent 36 percent, and the remaining regional cinema constituted 21 percent in 2014. Bollywood is one of the largest centres of film production in the world. In 2001 ticket sales, Indian cinema (including Bollywood) reportedly sold an estimated 3.6 billion tickets worldwide, compared to Hollywood's 2.6 billion tickets sold. Bollywood films tend to use vernacular Hindustani, mutually intelligible by people who self-identify as speaking either Hindi or Urdu, and modern Bollywood movies increasingly incorporate elements of Hinglish

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2AERR9Y - The St George's Tron Church, in Glasgow, Scotland, is a Church of Scotland church in the city centre, located in Nelson Mandela Place, previously known as St George's Place, fronting Buchanan Street at West George Street, along from Queen Street Station. It should not be confused with the 17th-century Tron Church, which lies to the south-west on Trongate and was redeveloped in the 1980s as the Tron Theatre. Located right on the busiest shopping street in Scotland (Buchanan Street), the building is a significant presence, and the oldest in the area. It stands as a terminating vista for West George Street.
The church opened in 1808, originally as St. George's Parish Church, with the original congregation originating from the Wynd Church in the Merchant City near to the Trongate. In 1815 Thomas Chalmers, later to be the leader of the evangelical party in the disruption of 1843, became minister of the church
The building, which was commissioned by the City Fathers was designed by William Stark, was opened in 1808, originally as St. George's Parish Church

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2MG40BY - Bile Beans was a laxative and tonic first marketed in the 1890s. The product supposedly contained substances extracted from a hitherto unknown vegetable source by a fictitious chemist known as Charles Forde. In the early years Bile Beans were marketed as Charles Forde's Bile Beans for Biliousness, and sales relied heavily on newspaper advertisements. Among other cure-all claims, Bile Beans promised to disperse unwanted fat and purify and enrich the blood.
Although the manufacturer claimed that the formula for Bile Beans was based on a vegetable source known only to Aboriginal Australians, its actual ingredients, which included cascara, rhubarb, liquorice and menthol, were commonly found in pharmacies of the period. A court case initiated in Scotland in 1905 found that the Bile Bean Manufacturing Company's business was based on a fraud and conducted fraudulently, but Bile Beans continued to be sold until the 1980s nevertheless.
Formulation and manufacture
Charles Edward Fulford (18701906) and Ernest Albert Gilbert (18751905) first sold Bile Beans in Australia in late 1897, marketed as Gould's Bile Beans. Fulford was a Canadian who had travelled to Australia to sell Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for Pale People for his uncle, George Taylor Fulford.
Fulford and Gilbert established the Bile Bean Manufacturing Company in Leeds, England, in 1899. It was claimed that the formula for Bile Beans was created by an Australian scientist Charles Forde in 1898, based on research he had conducted on a vegetable source known only to Aboriginal Australians. In reality, Charles Forde did not exist
the name was used as an alias for Charles Fulford, who had no scientific training

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy RBJ9RN - Coney Island is a peninsular residential neighborhood, beach, and leisure/entertainment destination of Long Island on the Coney Island Channel, which is part of the Lower Bay in the southwestern part of the borough of Brooklyn in New York City. Coney Island was formerly the westernmost of the Outer Barrier islands on Long Island's southern shore, but in the early 20th century it became connected to the rest of Long Island by land fill. The residential portion of the peninsula is a community of 60,000 people in its western part, with Sea Gate to its west, Brighton Beach and Manhattan Beach to its east, the Lower Bay to the south, and Gravesend to the north.
Coney Island was originally part of the colonial town of Gravesend. By the mid-19th century, it became a seaside resort, and by the late 19th century, amusement parks were also built at the location. The attractions reached a historical peak during the first half of the 20th century, declining in popularity after World War II and following years of neglect. The area was revitalized with the opening of the MCU Park in 2001 and several amusement rides in the 2010s.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy ED9DN8 - Roadchef was founded in July 1973 by Lindley Catering Investments and Galleon World Travel. The company was originally family owned but in November 1995 was sold to a management team and its most recent change of ownership was to the Israeli Delek Group.
Over the years Roadchef have acquired a portfolio of 20 sites. A large expansion occurred in 1998 when Roadchef agreed to purchase Blue Boar Group and Take A Break for £80 million and thus proceeded to integrate these acquisitions into an enlarged Roadchef Group. At the time, Blue Boar was the fourth largest operator of motorway services areas in the UK with three operational sites and one development site.
The acquired Watford Gap site was the first motorway service area to be opened in the UK in 1959 and is one of the UK's best known sites. A few years ago (according to Google Finance), Roadchef Motorways was one of the largest Motorway Services Area (MSA) operators in the UK, with 21 sites representing 24% of the market and serving some 60 million visitors each year.

The WCML contained many curves, and the APT pioneered the concept of active tilting to address these, a feature that has since been copied on designs around the world. The experimental APT-E achieved a new British railway speed record on 10 August 1975 when it reached 152.3 miles per hour (245.1 km/h), only to be bested by the service prototype APT-P at 162.2 miles per hour (261.0 km/h) in December 1979, a record that stood for 23 years.

\u00bfWhats this iPod Shuffle set all about? Read about it here
'My Generation' is a song by the British rock group The Who, which became a hit and one of their most recognisable songs. The song was named the 11th greatest song by Rolling Stone on their list of the 500 Greatest Songs of All Time and 13th on VH1's list of the 100 Greatest Songs of Rock &
Roll.
It's also part of The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame's 500 Songs that Shaped Rock and Roll and is inducted into the Grammy Hall of Fame for 'historical, artistic and significant' value. In 2009 it was named the 37th Greatest Hard Rock Song by VH1.
The song was released as a single on 5 November 1965, reaching No. 2 in the UK, the Who's highest charting single in the UK and No. 74 in America. 'My Generation' also appeared on The Who's 1965 debut album, My Generation (The Who Sings My Generation in the United States), and in greatly extended form on their live album Live at Leeds (1970). The Who re-recorded the song for the Ready Steady Who! EP in 1966, but this version was only released in 1995 on the remastered version of the A Quick One album.
The main difference between this version and the original is that instead of the hail of feedback which ends the original, the band play a chaotic rendition of Edward Elgar's 'Land of Hope and Glory'. In the album's liner notes the song is credited to both Townshend and Elgar. A music video featuring a montage of live performance clips has been played on music stations.
The Zimmers was a British band, thought to have the oldest members of any band in the world. The oldest member (Buster Martin) claimed to have been born in 1906, although some sources indicate he was born in 1913 \u2013 he died in 2011. The former lead singer Alf Carretta died on 29 June 2010, aged 93. The group takes its name from the Zimmer frame (walker).
The band was created as a feature in a BBC Television documentary, which was first broadcast on 28 May 2007. The feature of forming the band and recording a single was intended to give a voice to the feelings of isolation and imprisonment suffered by the elderly. The Zimmers' logo is a parody of The Beatles' logo, as is the image of them walking across Abbey Road.
The Zimmers released their first single, a cover of The Who's 'My Generation', reaching no 26 in the UK Singles Chart, on 28 May 2007. The song was produced by Mike Hedges, the video shot by Geoff Wonfor, and it was recorded in the Beatles Studio 2 at Abbey Road.
On 7 April 2012, the band performed the Beastie Boys' '(You Gotta) Fight for Your Right (To Party!)' on Britain's Got Talent.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy HEEF8N - Murals in Northern Ireland have become symbols of Northern Ireland, depicting the region's past and present political and religious divisions.
Belfast and Derry contain arguably the most famous political murals in Europe. It is believed that almost 2,000 murals have been documented since the 1970s. In 2014, the book, The Belfast Mural Guide estimated that, in Belfast, there were approximately 300 quality murals on display, with many more in varying degrees of age and decay. Murals commemorate, communicate and display aspects of culture and history. The themes of murals often reflect what is important to a particular community. A mural therefore exists to express an idea or message and could generally be seen as reflecting values held dear to that community.
In Irish republican areas the themes of murals can range from the 1981 Irish hunger strike, with particular emphasis on strike leader Bobby Sands
murals of international solidarity with revolutionary groups are equally common, as are those which highlight a particular issue, for example the Ballymurphy Massacre or the McGurk's Bar bombing. In working class unionist communities, murals are used to promote Ulster loyalist paramilitary groups such as the Ulster Defence Association and Ulster Volunteer Force and commemorate their deceased members. However traditional themes such as William III of England and the Battle of the Boyne, the Battle of the Somme and the 36th Ulster Division are equally common

\u00bfWhats this iPod Shuffle set all about? Read about it here
My sex is invested in suburban photographs, Skyscraper shadows on a car crash overpass....'
Ultravox! is the first studio album from the band Ultravox, which at the time was properly eponymous before the band dropped the Neu!-inspired exclamation mark from their name. It contained this track and was released on Island Records February 1977. It was recorded at Island Studios in Hammersmith in the autumn of 1976 and produced by the band and Steve Lillywhite, with studio assistance from the great Brian Eno.
This band was effectively led by two different individuals in its career, two frontmen who, curiously, never played together in the band at the same time. From 1974 until 1979, the frontman and main driving force behind Ultravox was John Foxx who left the band to embark on an influential solo career that continues to this day. Some time following Foxx's departure, with the three remaining members in a hiatus, Midge Ure took over as lead singer, guitarist, and frontman.
I am a great fan of the first incarnation, before the mid 1980s New Romantic makeover. Tracks like this, 'The Wild, The Beautiful and the Damned' and 'Sat'day Night in the City of the Dead' were championed by the late great John Peel, on his 10pm BBC radio 1 show.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2AA0RPY - A polling place or polling station is where voters cast their ballots in elections.
The phrase polling station is also used in American English and in British English, although polling place is the building and polling station is the specific room (or part of a room) where voters cast their votes. A polling place can contain one or more polling stations.
Since elections generally take place over a one- or two-day span on a periodic basis, often annual or longer, polling places are usually located in facilities used for other purposes, such as schools, churches, sports halls, local government offices, or even private homes, and may each serve a similar number of people. The area may be known as a ward, precinct, polling district or constituency. The polling place is staffed by officials (who may be called election judges, returning officers or other titles) who monitor the voting procedures and assist voters with the election process. Scrutineers (or poll-watchers) are independent or partisan observers who attend the poll to ensure the impartiality of the process.
The word poll means scalp or head. When votes were taken by gathering people together and counting heads, the place where this was done (sometimes an open field) was called the polls

With all the main parties hiding the details on what will be cut to tackle the current deficit, it is unlikely whoever gets in, there will be much left over for essential stuff like this. Most people realise it is charities, university research labs and big pharma who actuallly find these drugs, not central government. Maybe in the big Tory idea of 'everyone doing it for themselves', we should all be looking for these drugs ourselves? I read one satirical piece that suggested in this mode if we could not find a satisfactory hospital consultant the inferrence was that we should get a mirror and our own scalpal &
have a go.
It will be interesting to see what the reality is when the votes are counted and the job of dealing with that deficit starts. That could be like the colour shift in this image, a different kind of drug, a bad acid trip!

23 May 1971) is a British newspaper editor and former Conservative Party politician, who was Member of Parliament (MP) for Tatton from June 2001 until he stood down on 3 May 2017. He served as Chancellor of the Exchequer under Prime Minister David Cameron from 2010 to 2016. He has been editor of the London Evening Standard since May 2017 and chair of the Northern Powerhouse Partnership (NPP) since September 2016.
Osborne worked briefly as a freelancer for The Daily Telegraph before joining the Conservative Research Department in 1994 and becoming head of its political section. He went on to be a special adviser to Douglas Hogg, the Minister of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food, and worked at 10 Downing Street as well as for Prime Minister John Major's campaign team in the party's unsuccessful 1997 general election campaign, before becoming a speechwriter and political secretary to Major's successor as party leader, William Hague.
Osborne was elected as MP for Tatton in 2001, becoming the youngest Conservative member of the House of Commons.
As Chancellor, Osborne pursued austerity policies aimed at reducing the budget deficit and launched the Northern Powerhouse initiative. After the Conservatives won an overall majority in the 2015 general election, Cameron reappointed him Chancellor in his second government and gave him the additional title of First Secretary of State. During the premiership of David Cameron, George Osborne was widely viewed as a potential future Leader of the Conservative Party
one Conservative MP suggested that the closeness of his relationship with Cameron meant that the two effectively shared power during the duration of the Cameron Government.
Following the 2016 referendum vote to leave the European Union and Cameron's consequent resignation, Osborne was sacked by newly appointed Prime Minister Theresa May, & returned to the backbenches. He became editor of the Evening Standard

Following the 2016 referendum vote to leave the European Union and Cameron's consequent resignation, Osborne was sacked by newly appointed Prime Minister Theresa May, & returned to the backbenches. He became editor of the Evening Standard

Description: Tony Smith image Flickr 4573001216 - 'I have seen those shots with cameroon (sic cameron shurely?) as Elvis, but I was amazed to see Mr George Osbourne defaced looking like Adolf Hitler of the would be new World order while driving home through the edges of knutsford. possibly a bit severe, I dont think Adolf had the wealth of George, however by the same ruling chances are the Conservatives will be making some severe cuts, not suggesting we invade Poland or anything as european as that.
George is heir to the Osborne baronetcy (of Ballentaylor in the County of Waterford, Ireland). This makes him a part of what is known in Ireland as the Ascendancy, the old Anglo-Irish aristocracy. His father, Sir Peter Osborne, 17th Baronet, is co-founder of the fabric and wallpapers designers, Osborne &
Little. Osborne's wealth is estimated at \u00a34.3m by the New Statesman www.newstatesman.com/uk-politics/2009/10/oxford-universit... . He is also reported to be next in line to inherit a substantial share of Osborne &
Little, his father's luxury wall\u00adpaper company, which is thought to be worth over \u00a31 billion. so he would fit well in one of Britains safest Tory seats here in Tatton. Hopefully he would look to the needs of his constituents lower down the social ladder, customers of Cheshire Peaks &
Plains Housing Trust, Contour Homes or Great Places Housing Group as well as the more affluent.
After achieving an upper 2nd class degree at Magdalen College at Oxford University and being a member of the Bullingdon Club, a private dining club of Oxford University students (which was 'infamous for riotous behaviour' and was open only to sons of aristocratic families and the wealthy. Osborne's friends David Cameron and Nat Rothschild were also members of the club), he tried to persue a career as a journalist, but then moved to a vacent position at Conservative Central Office. he cut his teeth on the Prime Minister's Questions team for the various Conservative incumbent leaders Hague, Howard and cameron. Indeed, Osbourne and Cameron are godfathers to each other's children, so this may make his position safer.
The graffitti is interesting as it suggests a Europe leaning overtone, one that tories would rarther hide under the carpet for the moment. How palitable would a referendum on leaving the EU? Marginal if that.
Having said that, its looking more like a hung or balanced parliament might be imminent. We in Britain could be heading for Cleggagedden, whatever that means. Personally, I would like the best of all worlds if possible. The best of the free market and the social conscience with a respect for the environment and each other. If I see that with proportional representation or a (well) 'hung parliament' then so it must be.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2AA0RXG - Unison, stylised as UNISON, is the largest trade union in the United Kingdom with almost 1.4 million members.
The union was formed in 1993 when three public sector trade unions, the National and Local Government Officers Association (NALGO), the National Union of Public Employees (NUPE) and the Confederation of Health Service Employees (COHSE) merged.
UNISON's current general secretary is Dave Prentis. He was elected on 28 February 2000 and took up the post on 1 January 2001.
Members of UNISON are typically from industries within the public sector and generally cover both full-time and part-time support and administrative staff. The majority of people joining UNISON are workers within sectors such as local government, education, the National Health Service Registered Nurses, NHS Managers and Clinical Support Workers. The union also admits ancillary staff such as Health Care Assistants and Assistant Practitioners, including Allied Health Professionals. Probation services, police services, utilities (such as gas, electricity and water), and transport. These 'Service Groups' all have their own national and regional democratic structures within UNISON's constitution.
As a trade union, UNISON provides support to members on work related issues, including protection and representation at work, help with pay and conditions of service and legal advice. Each company or organisation will usually be represented by a particular UNISON branch and members within that organisation elect volunteer stewards to represent them. The stewards receive training in workplace issues and are then able to co-ordinate and represent members both on an individual basis and collectively

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2A9GHRM - George Gideon Oliver Osborne CH (born Gideon Oliver Osborne
23 May 1971) is a former British politician and newspaper editor who served as Chancellor of the Exchequer from 2010 to 2016 and as First Secretary of State from 2015 to 2016 in the Cameron government. A member of the Conservative Party, he was Member of Parliament (MP) for Tatton from 2001 to 2017. He was editor of the Evening Standard from 2017 to 2020.
The son of the Osborne & Little co-founder and baronet Peter Osborne, Osborne was born in Paddington and educated at Norland Place School, Colet Court and St Paul's School before studying at Magdalen College, Oxford. After working briefly as a freelancer for The Daily Telegraph, he joined the Conservative Research Department in 1994 and became head of its political section. He went on to be a special adviser to Minister of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food Douglas Hogg and work for John Major at 10 Downing Street, including on Major's unsuccessful 1997 general election campaign. In Opposition, he worked as a speechwriter and political secretary to Major's successor as party leader, William Hague.
Osborne was elected as MP for Tatton in 2001, becoming the youngest Conservative member of the House of Commons. He was appointed Shadow Chief Secretary to the Treasury by Conservative leader Michael Howard in 2004. The following year he ran David Cameron's successful party leadership campaign, and was subsequently appointed Shadow Chancellor of the Exchequer. After the 2010 general election, Osborne was appointed Chancellor of the Exchequer in the CameronClegg coalition. He succeeded Alistair Darling, inheriting a large deficit in government finances due to the effects of the late-2000s financial crisis. As Chancellor, Osborne's tenure pursued austerity policies aimed at reducing the budget deficit and launched the Northern Powerhouse initiative. After the Conservatives won an overall majority in the 2015 general election, Cameron reappointed him Chancellor

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2JN1G5J - John Player & Sons, most often known simply as Player's, was a tobacco and cigarette manufacturer based in Nottingham, England. In 1901, the company merged with other companies to form The Imperial Tobacco Company to face competition from US manufacturers. The company also released several series of association football trading cards in the 1930s under the Player's brand.
Nowadays the brands Player and John Player Special are owned and commercialised by Imperial Brands.
History
In March 1820, William Wright set up a small tobacco factory in Craigshill, Livingston, West Lothian. This business expanded and earned Wright a comfortable fortune. John Player bought the business in 1877. He had the Castle Tobacco Factories built in Radford, Nottingham, just west of the city centre. He had three large factory blocks built, but initially only one was used to process and pack tobacco. The other two blocks were loaned out to lace manufacturers until the business had expanded enough to use the additional space.
John Player died in December 1884 and for the next nine years, the business was run by a small group of family friends until W G and J D Player were ready to take over the firm in 1893. The business became a private limited company in 1895, with a share capital of £200,000.
The business was run later by Player's sons John Dane Player and William Goodacre Player.
In 1901, in response to competitive threats from the US, Player's merged with the Imperial Tobacco Group. The largest constituent of Imperial Tobacco was W. D. & H. O. Wills and the new group was run from Wills' head office in Bristol. Player's retained its own identity with cigarette brands such as Navy Cut, No. 9, John Player Special, and Gold Leaf
loose tobacco brands such as No Name
and its distinctive logo of a smoking sailor in a navy-cut cap.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2T00PET - High Speed 2 (HS2) is a planned high-speed railway line and network of passenger train services in England. It will consist of a new railway line between the West Midlands and London, with a branch to Birmingham, and a network of train services that will use the new line and existing conventional track to reach their destinations in the Midlands, Northern England, and Scotland. HS2 will be Britain's second purpose-built high-speed line, the first being High Speed 1, which connects London to the Channel Tunnel. The majority of the project is planned to be completed between 2029 and 2033. A 2019 review of the project, as then planned, estimated that it would cost up to £87 billion
however, this is estimated to have risen to approximately £100 billion in 2023.
The new line will run between London Euston railway station and Fradley in southern Staffordshire, with stations at Old Oak Common, in northwest London, and Birmingham Interchange, near Solihull. There will be spurs to a planned station in central Birmingham and a junction with the West Coast Main Line (WCML) at Handsacre, near Lichfield. The rolling stock will run at a maximum speed of 360 km/h (225 mph) and will operate on both HS2 track and existing conventional track
On 4 October 2023 the Prime Minister Rishi Sunak announced that Phase 2 would be abandoned and that responsibility for the Euston connection would be removed from HS2 Ltd

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy RBJ9RP - Coney Island is a peninsular residential neighborhood, beach, and leisure/entertainment destination of Long Island on the Coney Island Channel, which is part of the Lower Bay in the southwestern part of the borough of Brooklyn in New York City. Coney Island was formerly the westernmost of the Outer Barrier islands on Long Island's southern shore, but in the early 20th century it became connected to the rest of Long Island by land fill. The residential portion of the peninsula is a community of 60,000 people in its western part, with Sea Gate to its west, Brighton Beach and Manhattan Beach to its east, the Lower Bay to the south, and Gravesend to the north.
Coney Island was originally part of the colonial town of Gravesend. By the mid-19th century, it became a seaside resort, and by the late 19th century, amusement parks were also built at the location. The attractions reached a historical peak during the first half of the 20th century, declining in popularity after World War II and following years of neglect. The area was revitalized with the opening of the MCU Park in 2001 and several amusement rides in the 2010s.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy F0G6W3 - In Western culture, the finger, or the middle finger (as in giving someone the (middle) finger, the bird or flipping someone off) is an obscene hand gesture. The gesture communicates moderate to extreme contempt, and is roughly equivalent in meaning to fuck me, fuck you, shove it up your ass/arse, up yours or go fuck yourself. It is performed by showing the back of a hand that has only the middle finger extended upwards, though in some locales, the thumb is extended. Extending the finger is considered a symbol of contempt in several cultures, especially in the Western world. Many cultures use similar gestures to display their disrespect, although others use it to express pointing without intentional disrespect. The gesture is usually used to express contempt but can also be used humorously or playfully.
The gesture dates back to ancient Greece and it was also used in ancient Rome. Historically, it represented the phallus. In the early 1800s, it gained increasing recognition as a sign of disrespect and was used by music artists (notably more common among actors, celebrities, athletes and politicians
most still view the gesture as obscene). The index finger and ring finger besides the middle finger in more contemporary periods has been likened to represent the testes.
In July 2022 UK Tory MP,Andrea Jenkyns for Morley and Outwood,who gave protesters the middle finger made parliamentary under-secretary of state minister at the Department for Education.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy JH6749 - Brexit: What is the Northern Ireland Protocol?
Northern Ireland Protocol - agreed with the European Union (EU) in 2019 - has been a source of tension since it came into force at the start of 2021.
Special trading arrangements were needed for Northern Ireland after the UK voted for Brexit in 2016. This is because it's the only part of the UK with a land border with an EU country - the Republic of Ireland.
Before Brexit, it was easy to transport goods across this border because both sides had the same EU trade rules. No checks or paperwork were necessary.
After Brexit, a new system was needed because the EU has strict food rules and requires border checks when certain goods - such as milk and eggs - arrive from non-EU countries.
UK and the EU agreed that protecting the 1998 Northern Ireland peace deal - the Good Friday Agreement - was an absolute priority. So, both sides signed the Northern Ireland Protocol as part of the Brexit withdrawal agreement, which is now part of international law.
Foreign Secretary Liz Truss says the Protocol has caused problems which had not been expected when the agreement was signed.
The government now wants to ditch parts of the deal.
It wants to create red lanes and green lanes for goods imported from Britain into Northern Ireland.
