I have to say I have been thinking about your newspaper a lot recently. What impressed me the most is how down to earth it is. It's just news, it's amazing. Like you said in this post other news websites are saturated with ads and BS (I'm periphrasing here). This hyper-local outlet is a breath of fresh air, I finally know what's going on. The interviews are to the point - Nice and simple.

I like clarity, honesty and quality of information a lot. Thank you! Happy birthday LA! 🎂

Congratulations and Medway needs you. Sadly paid publications simply don't have the resources and their political coverage is non- existent. While our newly elected Council is a breath of fresh air our democracy is tenuous. Full Council meetings were reduced to 4 a year over the last 15 years and our Councillors continue to sit with their backs to the public. The St George's Centre is inaccessible to only those with access to a private car. Keep going!

Agreed. Accessibility is a big part of this. Getting information out from what goes on in these places is essential. Fingers crossed we get that new council chamber that was in the budget though!

N.B. For your Hoo content: https://youtu.be/Knzt6SusszQ on what the Hoo railway and industry on Grain actually does. Though omitted that the Grain Crossing signal box is listed as historic (It's my favourite example of the Medway cityscape).

It's a good start, but could use more bollard news.

There has been a depressing lack of bollard activity lately.
