A local MP has called for BBC Licence Fee refunds in Parliament following the Bilsdale mast fire.

Speaking in the House of Commons, Redcar MP Jacob Young pressed Julie Lopez, the Minister of State for Media, Data, and Digital Infrastructure, on the lack of BBC licence fee refunds.

Police are re-appealing for witnesses after a man has been charged with the murder of a man in Middlesbrough.

On Sunday November 28 2021, at around 11.40pm, 46-year-old Ian Macneil was found on Middlesbrough’s Victoria Road near the junction with Errol Street.

He had suffered serious head injuries and was taken to hospital and received treatment but later passed away.

A 49-year-old man has now been charged with Mr Macneil’s murder.

Anyone with information, including dashcam or CCTV footage, is asked to contact Cleveland Police on the non-emergency number 101.

The mobile covid vaccination clinic is in Carlin How today.

First and second jabs and boosters are available at St. Helen's Parish Church in Carlin How between 9am and 6pm, with no appointment necessary.
