BROMSGROVE Sporting has received praise from the town’s MP for the work the club does in the community and the main stand roof refurbishment in tribute to much-loved teenager Thomas Jones.

Sajid Javid said: “It’s a fantastic tribute and a real touch of class from the club.

A NEW wellbeing store celebrated its launch last Saturday with a visit from Bromsgrove MP Sajid Javid.

It was started by Faye Jones from The Daily Bread which has operated a studio on the Birmingham Road since July 2018.

Tone-deaf and condescending antics of singers and film stars have made even politicians look in touch by comparison.

One video posted by Madonna is a classic example.

In it, she declares that coronavirus is “the great equaliser” while lying in a bathtub full of rose petals.

Today I published a report with the Centre for Policy Studies, with 60+ ideas to support Ministers in their efforts to secure the strongest possible economic recovery. 

Four months ago Sajid Javid was preparing for a budget, now — after quitting the cabinet and going into lockdown with four children — his biggest challenge is trying to cook as well as they do. It is not a battle he is winning.

During this challenging period, our community has shown great strength, resilience and determination to defeat this virus.

This is an unprecedented challenge and the greatest threat our country has faced in decades. However, I know that we will get through this – together.

From this week, shops will be able to reopen in England, provided that they have the necessary safety measures in place, as we get our economy moving again.

Pain and anguish. Hope and despair. I’ve spent my week watching footage shot on a thousand smartphones, expressing a hurt that has persisted for hundreds of years.
