Cladding cash

The government is set to announce billions in extra funding to remove flammable cladding from high rise homes. 3 years on from the Grenfell Tower fire, over 700,000 people are still living in buildings with flammable cladding - and the crisis has left homeowners with huge bills for its removal. Last year, the government pledged £1.6 billion to pay for repairs - but a committee of MPs later estimated that the total cost could run to £15 billion.

Pubs plead for plan

Bars and pubs are clamouring to know when they’ll be able to reopen. The British Beer and Pub Association (BBPA) has warned that thousands of watering holes are deep in debt and could be lost for good, after takings more than halved last year. The government has said it’ll share its plan for reopening the economy on 22nd February.

Marine life makeover

Fancy spider crab for starters? How about megrim fish for main? You might prefer Cornish King crab followed by Cornish sole. Both abundant in our waters, but the vast majority of the catch is exported to Europe. That’s become trickier since Brexit, so the fish are getting shiny new names to help them appeal to British diners.
