Forshaw Heath & Earlswood BoD in Warwickshire

Today Dad and I had a real Daughter Father discussion.

It actually turns out we don't actually think much differently to each other. A friend of his out of the blue quite simply said the country is Fked (excuse language)

In any case it started a conversation about fuel prices and some of the ramifications it will or could have in the future. Lets talk Food!

Small hauliers will go out of business not be able to afford to deliver
Large hauliers will put their costs up
Supermarkets will put their price up to reflect the cost of delivery
Car owners won't be able to get to out of town to shop(they wont be able to afford it) The petrol that is.
There won't be any public transport to get them there because of cuts

I know lets reinvent the wheel!

Lets all open up local shops with local food, reinvent our farms and support our local shops, You know the ones Local Butcher, Local Grocery, Local Baker, Local Post Office, Local Business. All the things that have closed in the name of progress.

The trouble is Britain dosen't make anything any more or very little we have very little to sell to anyone else.

We to all intents and purposes are a nation of servicing each other Industry.

If we no longer produce anything or make anything to export how on earth do we get out of the pickle we are all in. As a Nation we produce very little to sell

I asked Dad? Whats your solution he didn't know.

I asked myself what would be my solution? I didn't think I would have an answer but after a bit of digging around in the old Grey cells I do.

Become a self sufficient nation and don't rely on any other country for our Nation to survive.

Crime Stats Alcester North October 2020

Well as crime has been on my mind for the last couple of weeks and it has always appeared difficult to find any meaningful crime stats. I have at long last found the information used by the Police lurking on the Police.uk website. It is not live data and runs approx 6 to 8 weeks in arrears for example October 2020 is now visible. This is a totally interactive tool, easy to use and has a great dashboard, what is good about this tool it also provides outcomes. The default is for the whole of the Alcester North area however it is simple to find out where the hot spots are and which crimes have been included. So for those of you keeping an eye on the stats this may well be the tool to use. To get to the information just click the link below Alcester North Crime Data
