SINCE I last wrote in these columns, Andy Burnham has become our Prime Minister and he has shared a series of welcome announcements. A well received measure for the many who rely on our bus services every day to get to work, appointments, education and more. We’ve also seen the announcement that pubs, clubs and live music venues will receive a 20% cut to their business rates bills. It is less than two weeks into Andy’s premiership, and these measures will help keep more money in people’s pockets. Last week, the Reform leadership at Warwickshire County Council lost a vote to repeal the climate emergency declaration at the council.
