Why are energy prices remaining stubbornly high?
I think a lot of people are wondering why the energy companies are not making bigger reductions in what they are charging the public. The reasons given around investment for the future and ensuring supplies, but anyone looking at their enormous profits can see that these are pretty thin excuses.

Fences and floodlights kicked into touch for now as football planning application defeated
In a victory for local residents, the application by Red House Farm FC to fence off over 70% of the field north of Kingston Park Road (Parklands/Fawdon Wards in Newcastle) has been deferred unanimously by a meeting of the City's Planning Committee, which a large number of residents including Sea and Royal Marines cadets attended. It's down to the club to decide upon its next move, but the committee gave a strong steer that while an all weather pitch with floodlights and a fence might be acceptable, 10 foot high fences enclosing most of this public open space wouldn't be. Councillors, council and club officials will sit down together FOR THE FIRST TIME next Thursday...a bit late!
