Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 3E3RM1E - Conceptual UK personal finance image illustrating ISA season, annual tax planning and the rush to use a tax-free savings allowance before the tax year end in April. Scrabble-style tiles spelling ISA and SEASON are arranged across a spread of modern British currency, with Scottish banknotes and mixed UK coins creating an instantly recognisable money background. The photograph works as a visual metaphor for individual savings accounts, cash ISA decisions, tax-free interest, household budgeting, personal wealth, thrift, rainy-day funds, financial year deadlines and the annual consumer push to open, top up or transfer an ISA before the allowance resets for the new tax year. The presence of Scottish notes adds a strong regional UK dimension, making the image useful for editorial, financial journalism, consumer money guides, banking promotions, savings campaigns and articles about tax efficiency across England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland. Themes include cost of living pressures, saving habits, financial resilience, comparison of cash ISA rates, prudent money management, building a nest egg, short-term savings, long-term planning, and the seasonal marketing push by banks, building societies and investment platforms. This still life of notes, coins and letter tiles is also suitable for stories about tax-free wrappers, April deadlines, last-minute ISA subscriptions, new account openings, rollover savings strategy, family finances, and the psychology of putting money aside at year end. It conveys urgency, caution and opportunity in a simple, readable financial composition with clear British context. It can also support coverage of stocks and shares ISA choices, junior ISA saving, flexible ISA products, account transfers, tax shelter planning, savers switching providers, inflation concerns, interest rate competition, retail banking promotions, and spring money-management features for households trying to make each pound work harder.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 3E1Y7H4 - Close-up financial concept image showing the letters I S A spelled out with yellow Scrabble-style tiles placed on a spread of Scottish pound banknotes, creating a clear visual reminder of the UK Individual Savings Account deadline and the annual rush to make use of tax-free saving and investment allowances before the end of the tax year. The background includes mixed denominations of Scottish sterling notes, adding a distinctly Scottish and UK regional flavour to an image that still speaks to wider British personal finance, household saving, investment planning and tax-efficient money management. This photograph works well for editorial use around cash ISAs, stocks and shares ISAs, annual contribution limits, last-minute savings decisions, financial literacy campaigns, spring tax-year planning and consumer advice about making the most of available tax wrappers. The Scrabble letters give the scene a simple, memorable and slightly playful visual style, while the banknotes anchor it in serious themes such as savings culture, wealth building, long-term investing, rainy-day funds, budgeting and protecting returns from unnecessary tax. The phrase canny tax-free investments fits particularly well with the image because it suggests sensible, prudent and streetwise money management, especially in a British context where savers are often reminded each spring not to waste their ISA allowance. The use of physical cash and visible banknotes also makes the image suitable for broader articles about the relationship between saving and investing, the psychology of money, cost of living pressures, consumer confidence and the tension between holding cash and putting funds into more productive tax-efficient products. Strong editorial and commercial image for stories about ISA season, end-of-year financial planning, UK taxation, savings deadlines, personal wealth management, retail finance products and the practical habits of people trying to make careful, canny and tax-smart decision

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 3DX14M0 - A temporary Green Party campaign headquarters in Gorton, Manchester, photographed during the Denton and Gorton by election campaign. The shopfront carries a dark green fascia reading GREEN PARTY with the party emblem, and the windows are lined with VOTE GREEN posters, turning an ordinary high street unit into a highly visible organising base. Outside the entrance, volunteers gather with clipboards and campaign materials, collecting leaflets, poster boards and banners before heading out to canvass nearby streets.
The image captures the practical, street level mechanics of modern electioneering: a local HQ used for briefing, distributing literature, coordinating volunteer shifts and managing get out the vote activity. It suits editorial coverage of UK politics, grassroots campaigning, constituency work, voter outreach and the logistics that sit behind rallies and social media. It also shows how parties use short term premises on busy streets to signal momentum, provide a meeting point, and create a visible presence where every leaflet drop counts.
Campaign hubs like this are where walk routes are planned, canvass returns are gathered and neighbourhood concerns are discussed before volunteers knock on doors. The scene fits coverage of political organising, ground campaign strategy, and the human effort involved in building support beyond online messaging.
Shot in natural winter light with grey sky reflections in the glass, the moment feels everyday, with coats, backpacks and practical footwear rather than staged photo opportunities. Brick buildings and shuttered neighbouring units add context about local high street pressures, while the group at the doorway suggests conversation, coordination and community involvement. With readable text and strong branding, the photograph is useful for news, features and commentary about campaigning, turnout operations, and local democracy in the M18 Gorton area of Greater Manchester.

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 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 3E26XHD - Street scene of the TGJones Books branch on Toll Gavel in Beverley, East Riding of Yorkshire, England. The photograph shows a British high street bookshop with prominent TGJones branding, large display windows and an open entrance, positioned next to a Coral betting shop in the town centre. Books, magazines, children's titles and promotional posters are visible in the frontage, helping the image work well for themes such as bookselling, retail branding, town centre shopping, consumer habits and the continuing role of physical bookshops on UK high streets. The location is useful editorially because TGJones is the fascia now used on WHSmith high street stores, making the scene relevant to stories about rebranding, legacy retail chains, changing brand identities and the adaptation of familiar British shops to modern trading conditions.
Beverley is a historic market town in East Yorkshire with an attractive commercial centre, a mix of independent and chain retailers, and steady footfall from local shoppers and visitors. This image captures a recognisable retail streetscape with brick buildings, clean modern signage and everyday pavement activity, giving it value for editorial, documentary and commercial uses connected to the future of the high street, books and reading, stationery retail, local commerce, shopping parades, market town economies and retail resilience. It can also illustrate stories about WHSmith rebranding, British booksellers, non-food retail, storefront design, town centre regeneration, face-to-face customer service, browsing in physical shops and the contrast between online retail and traditional in-person shopping. Because the image includes clear signage, neighbouring businesses and a readable street-facing presentation, it is also strong for place-led searches around Beverley, Toll Gavel, East Riding of Yorkshire, Yorkshire retail, England travel, urban geography and everyday life in a provincial UK shopping district today.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 3DCX6ET - A blue directional road sign in Dundee, Scotland, indicating a route towards the Tay Bridge for walkers and cyclists. The sign features internationally recognised pedestrian and bicycle symbols, highlighting the bridge's role not only as a major road crossing but also as part of Dundee's wider active travel network.
The Tay Road Bridge spans the Firth of Tay, linking Dundee with Fife and forming one of the most important transport connections in eastern Scotland. While primarily designed for vehicular traffic, the bridge also provides segregated or designated routes for non-motorised users, making it a significant piece of infrastructure for commuters, leisure cyclists and long-distance walkers.
Such signage reflects broader policy priorities in Scotland and the UK aimed at encouraging walking and cycling as alternatives to car travel, supporting objectives around carbon reduction, public health and urban sustainability. Clear wayfinding signs are a key element of this approach, helping users navigate complex urban transport systems and promoting confidence in active travel routes.
Photographed in daylight against a clear sky, the image isolates the sign and its symbols, making it suitable for editorial use relating to transport planning, sustainable mobility, urban design and public infrastructure. The photograph documents how large-scale transport structures such as the Tay Bridge are increasingly framed within debates about inclusive access, environmental responsibility and the future of everyday urban movement.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2PH9M5M - Currys (branded as Currys PC World between 2010 and 2021) is an electrical retailer and aftercare service provider operating in the United Kingdom and Ireland, specialising in white goods, consumer electronics, computers and mobile phones.
Established as a bicycle retailer in 1927, Currys expanded the range of goods sold and from the 1960s became a major retailer of household electrical items. In 1984 the company was bought by rival retailer Dixons, and the Currys brand was used for all outlets of the combined company. From 2008, the business turned away from shops in town centres to larger out-of-town stores under the Currys PC World brand, combining the operations of Currys with Dixon's PC World under one roof
after the formation of Dixons Carphone in 2014, the stores gained Carphone Warehouse departments. It was announced in July 2021 that all Currys PC World stores would be rebranded to Currys.
Dixons Retail began a trial combining Currys and PC World shops in 2008. During the Dixons Carphone Christmas 20152016 results update to shareholders, Sebastian James, group chief executive, revealed that over the following financial year the three-in-one shop format (shops featuring Currys, PC World and Carphone Warehouse branding under one roof) would be rolled out across the company's entire portfolio in the United Kingdom and the Republic of Ireland.
Following reorganisations in 2020 and 2021, Dixons Carphone announced that the Currys PC World stores would be rebranded to Currys in October 2021

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2K56CWT - GDPR to be scrapped in favour of UK data privacy regime
The UK will scrap the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), the European Union's data privacy regime, and replace it with an alternative system in the UK, the digital and culture secretary Michelle Donelan has told the Conservative Party conference.
Donelan said the proposed new system, details of which have not yet been revealed, will be simpler and clearer for businesses to navigate.
No longer will our businesses be shackled by lots of unnecessary red tape, said Donelan. We will be replacing GDPR with our own business and consumer-friendly British data protection system.
Our plan will protect consumer privacy and keep their data safe, whilst retaining our data adequacy so businesses can trade freely.
The GDPR, which aims to enhance individuals' rights to their own personal data, took effect across the UK, the EU and the European Economic Area (EEA) in May 2018. It applies to all businesses that process data held by anyone in these regions, regardless of where the business is based.
The Data Reform Bill introduced in the summer is on hold while ministers review their approach. Nadine Norris, the former digital and culture secretary, said in June that measures in the bill would increase financial penalties for those pestering people with nuisance calls and minimise the number of cookie pop-ups people see on the internet.
Donelan's speech in Birmingham came after the prime minister announced the exemption of tens of thousands of employers from reporting obligations such as gender pay gap reporting as part of a sweeping package of reforms to cut red tape.
Small and medium-sized businesses with fewer than 250 employees are currently exempt from regulatory requirements such as gender pay gap and executive pay ratio reporting.
The government yesterday increased this threshold to 500 employees for all new regulations under development and said that it would apply this to retained EU law

The GDPR, which aims to enhance individuals' rights to their own personal data, took effect across the UK, the EU and the European Economic Area (EEA) in May 2018. It applies to all businesses that process data held by anyone in these regions, regardless of where the business is based.
The Data Reform Bill introduced in the summer is on hold while ministers review their approach. Nadine Norris, the former digital and culture secretary, said in June that measures in the bill would increase financial penalties for those pestering people with nuisance calls and minimise the number of cookie pop-ups people see on the internet.
Donelan's speech in Birmingham came after the prime minister announced the exemption of tens of thousands of employers from reporting obligations such as gender pay gap reporting as part of a sweeping package of reforms to cut red tape.
Small and medium-sized businesses with fewer than 250 employees are currently exempt from regulatory requirements such as gender pay gap and executive pay ratio reporting.
The government yesterday increased this threshold to 500 employees for all new regulations under development and said that it would apply this to retained EU law

The UK will scrap the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), the European Union's data privacy regime, and replace it with an alternative system in the UK, the digital and culture secretary Michelle Donelan has told the Conservative Party conference.
Donelan said the proposed new system, details of which have not yet been revealed, will be simpler and clearer for businesses to navigate.

Glossop Town Hall and Market were built by Bernard Edward Howard, the 12th Duke of Norfolk. The foundation stone was laid in 1938. Municipal Buildings started out as the open fish market part of the current market building before various alterations and additions over the years.
The Municipal Buildings is used mainly for office accommodation
the Market Hall is currently empty whilst work to modernise and renovate the facilities takes place
and the Town Hall was used as a public hall/venue but has been out of use since 2008 due to accessibility issues and limited use.
All of the buildings are listed and were the subject of an extensive public consultation exercise as part of the Glossop Design and Place Making Strategy which expresses the aspirations of the Glossop public.
We are working to bring these iconic buildings back in to community use and secure them for the future.
Projects to replace the roofs at the Town Hall, the Municipal Buildings and Market Hall have now been completed.
In November 2021 we were awarded £2m in funding from the D2N2 Local Enterprise Partnership via their Getting Building fund. This funding, together with the Council's investment, is being used on the £7m project to restore and modernise these buildings and return them to public use.
Construction work will start in Autumn in 2022 and is expected to be complete by early 2024.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2JRM301 - Over the last 2 years, through a combination of vaccine-induced immunity and immunity generated following natural infection (natural immunity), large proportions of the UK population have developed at least partial immunity against COVID-19. As the UK transitions from a period of pandemic emergency response to pandemic recovery, the focus will increasingly be on protecting those in society who continue to be more at risk of severe COVID-19. To achieve this, a planned and targeted vaccination programme is considered more appropriate than a reactive vaccination strategy.
For the 2022 autumn booster programme, the primary objective is to augment immunity in those at higher risk from COVID-19 and thereby optimise protection against severe COVID-19, specifically hospitalisation and death, over winter 2022 to 2023.
Accordingly, JCVI advises that for the 2022 autumn booster programme, the following groups should be offered a COVID-19 booster vaccine:
residents in a care home for older adults and staff working in care homes for older adults
frontline health and social care workers
all adults aged 50 years and over
persons aged 5 to 49 years in a clinical risk group, as set out in the Green Book, chapter 14a, tables 3 and 4
persons aged 5 to 49 years who are household contacts of people with immunosuppression
persons aged 16 to 49 years who are carers, as set out in the Green Book, chapter 14a, table 3
In order to optimise protection over the winter months, the autumn programme should aim to complete vaccinations by the start of December 2022. Operational flexibility will apply in relation to vaccine supply, promotion of vaccine uptake and prioritisation for vaccination according to underlying risk of severe COVID-19.
It is not the intention of JCVI that the 2022 COVID-19 autumn booster programme should disrupt or delay deployment of the annual influenza immunisation programme. Both programmes are important for individual and public health, espec

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2D9H1A3 - The Environment Agency (EA) is a non-departmental public body, established in 1995 and sponsored by the United Kingdom government's Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs (DEFRA), with responsibilities relating to the protection and enhancement of the environment in England
The EA provides Flood and coastal risk management, Activities to reduce likelihood of flooding
Activities to reduce consequences of flooding, Environment and business, Climate change, Air quality, Land quality, Water quality, Water resources, Fishing, Navigation, Other marine responsibilities, Equipment and Fleet, Consultation and influencing, Advice to Government, Regional organisation
The Environment Agency's remit covers almost the whole of England, about 13 million hectares of land, 22,000 miles (35,000 km) of river and 3,100 miles (5,000 km) of coastline seawards to the three-mile limit which includes 2 million hectares of coastal waters. In a sharing arrangement with the Scottish Environment Protection Agency (SEPA), it also exercises some of its functions over parts of the catchments of the River Tweed and the Border Esk which are, for the most part, in Scotland. Similarly, in an arrangement with NRW, political and operational areas are not coterminus. NRW staff exercise responsibility for parts of the River Dee (Wales) in England and EA staff exercise operational responsibility for those parts of the River Severn catchment in Wales.
Structure
The Environment Agency employs around 11,200 staff. It is organised into eight directorates that report to the chief executive. There are two policy and process directorates. One deals with Flood and Coastal Risk Management and the other with Environment and Business. These are backed up by the Evidence directorate. The fourth directorate is a single Operations delivery unit, responsible for national services, and line management of all the Regional and Area staff.
The remaining directorates are central shared service groups

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy PGH9J3 - Maize also known as corn, is a cereal grain first domesticated by indigenous peoples in southern Mexico about 10,000 years ago. The leafy stalk of the plant produces pollen inflorescences and separate ovuliferous inflorescences called ears that yield kernels or seeds, which are fruits.
Maize has become a staple food in many parts of the world, with the total production of maize surpassing that of wheat or rice. However, little of this maize is consumed directly by humans: most is used for corn ethanol, animal feed and other maize products, such as corn starch and corn syrup. The six major types of maize are dent corn, flint corn, pod corn, popcorn, flour corn, and sweet corn.
Maize is widely cultivated throughout the world, and a greater weight of maize is produced each year than any other grain. In 2014, total world production was 1.04 billion tonnes, led by the United States with 35% of the total. China produced 21% of the global total.
In 2016, maize (corn) production was forecast to be over 15 billion bushels, an increase of 11% over 2014 American production. Based on conditions as of August 2016, the expected yield would be the highest ever for the United States. The area of harvested maize was forecast to be 87 million acres, an increase of 7% over 2015. Maize is especially popular in Midwestern states such as Indiana and Illinois
in the latter, it was named the state's official grain in 2017

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy PEHG3X - Warrington's Own Buses has always rallied against rival bus companies to hang on to its market, and has always succeeded thanks to loyal support from the local community. We strive to deliver the best possible public transport service for Warrington, and our community ownership gives locals a real say on transport strategy.
We carry over 6 million passengers per year using a fleet of 91 buses that operate approximately 5 million kilometres in service per annum. Warrington is currently one of the fastest growing economies in the North West and high quality public transport is essential to the town's continued development.
With seven non-executive directors on our board, as well as three locally based, full-time management directors, we combine the best of private sector experience with public sector ethos, allowing local people to make local decisions about the running of local services.
