@RogerJ_01@BBCNWT - such a great programme tonight; Steve Hindley’s story shows why we need regional journalism - this was storytelling at its best. It’d have been hard for anyone *not* to have a tear in their eye after that feature. Well done for sharing a heartbreaking story x
It was terrible Mr Vice President what happened. And lessons will be learned. But here’s a thought - maybe concentrate instead on why 44000 Americans died last year from gun related deaths, and what can be done about your dreadful disease before you start lecturing others

Farage says his £5 million gift was a “reward” for Brexit.
The rest of us were rewarded with higher bills and years of chaos.
This grifter must not become prime minister.
My Brother tragically suffered a cardiac arrest last Sunday at mile 25 of the @LondonMarathon he’s currently fighting for his life in hospital. Please if anyone sees this please share so we can raise funds to help at this really tough time. @age_uk
