Thinking of Trying Again with the News Content

I’m thinking of trying again at pumping out Yorkshire News content on here, having had a lack of motivation due to lack of information and tips flowing through.Got Yorkshire News?

Main motivation being the majority of local news pumped out by established outlets frequently seem to lack actual news on their websites, while also pumping out articles with scientifically illiterate woke misinformation about green crap and stuff (especially on the oulets supposedly covering Whitby, Scarborough, Filey and Bridlington).

I guess it’s kind of a similar problem to how BBC News and Sky News have gotten too orientated towards Guardian and Daily Mirror readers, so until the arrival of GB News and TalkTV there was nothing suitable for readers of Daily Telegraph / Daily Mail / Daily Express who support Conservative Party / Reform Party / UKIP, etc.

I’m also hoping to work up the energy to resume work on the local guides type articles.

Climate Wanking Week

This comes as actual scientists are still revealing there’s nothing wrong with it. Continue reading “Climate Wanking Week”

Whitby Regatta 2022

A couple of weekends ago, the 2022 Whitby Regatta took place (13th – 15th August).

For the first time in a number of years I keenly got ready to go the night before, making sure my camera batteries had electricity in them and making sure my computer was set up properly to accept the footage I’d record, ready to get it online.

I had been looking forward to the event for weeks once I knew the Red Arrows were coming for the first time in a long while on a day I could actually get down to see them, as after the last time I caught them in 2011 I decided I needed a better camera to capture footage of them at following Whitby Regatta events, and invested in a top-rated Panasonic HD camcorder to do so.

So this weekend would be the first time since I bought the bloody thing 11-years ago that I’d been able to use the thing for the job I bought it to be able to do. Continue reading “Whitby Regatta 2022”

North Yorkshire Police Fire and Crime Commisssioner plans branded ‘bland and generic’

Article on the Planet Radio local news section for Yorkshire reporting on this a couple of days ago.

North Yorkshire’s third Police, Fire and Crime Commissioner in the space of a year has been repeatedly told her first plan to improve policing is “bland and generic” and fails to reflect the passion she displayed before being elected.

Almost four months after securing 41,760 of the first and second-preference votes in a by-election for the £74,000 salary role in November, Conservative Commissioner, Zoe Metcalfe, appeared composed as she faced the criticism from members of the North Yorkshire Police, Fire and Crime Panel.

Large Number of South Yorkshire Apartments Flunk Fire Safety Checks

ITV News (Calendar) is reporting on their social media tonight that South Yorkshire Fire & Rescue have reviewed all 205 high rise buildings located in their patch after the Grenfell fire down in London.
