This is a difficult story. I hope the family gets the outcome they want. Five bereaved siblings currently do not know whether they will be able to stay in their family home after their father passes. #LDReporter nottinghampost.com/news/local-new…
🏠This is a remarkable statistic: More than 24,000 council homes have been sold under Right to Buy since the 1980s - almost as many as the council now has left under its ownership in the entire city... @nottslive #LDReporter nottinghampost.com/news/nottingha…
"Bombs on wheels": Councillors and residents in Broxtowe have backed a motion seeking stricter rules on e-bikes and e-scooters. Some believe users should have specific licences to ride them👇 #LDReporter nottinghampost.com/news/calls-tig…
More than 400 people applied to join Nottingham’s council house register every month in the first quarter of the year, new figures show. #LDReporter google.com/amp/s/www.nott…
🛩 The fascinating Tollerton Airfield debacle goes on - but Rushcliffe Borough Council and developer Vistry have sought to quash concerns. #LDReporter nottinghampost.com/news/local-new…
From Friday: Brinsley Headstocks is set to be rebuilt and opened by April 2026! This is a six-month delay to original plans after old mine shafts were found last year. A lovely tribute bench to miners who died at the colliery is on site👇 #LDReporter nottinghampost.com/news/local-new…
Councillor 'horrified and disgusted' over potential housing plans for Stoke Bardolph. The land was previously removed from the council's Local Plan after a successful campaign in 2022. Residents have also spoken👇 #LDReporter nottinghampost.com/news/local-new…
Full story on last night's by-election victory for the Conservatives. "It shows Reform can be beaten," @RobertJenrick says. "This is the first time anywhere in the country the Tories have won a seat off Reform." #LDReporter nottinghampost.com/news/local-new…
BREAKING: Reform UK have lost a Nottinghamshire County Council seat they won just two months ago. A by-election was called after Reform’s councillor quit six days into his post. The Conservatives have now just won the seat back. @JoeLocker96 at tonight’s count.
BREAKING: Cllr Keith Girling, given a second chance at reclaiming his seat from Reform in a by-election, has won back his seat by just 8 votes. @nottslive #LDReporter
FYI: I'll be attending the Newark West by-election count tonight. It comes after Reform's Desmond Clarke resigned his seat a week after winning it. Will have the results on here sometime around midnight (hopefully), & a story on @nottslive later in the morning. #LDReporter
