  • Electoral Review of Salford City Council
    Electoral review of Salford City Council Response to the Local Government Boundary Commission for England’s consultation on Warding Patterns August 2018 1 1 Executive Summary 1.1 Salford in 2018 has changed dramatically since the city’s previous electoral review of 2002. Salford has seen a turnaround in its fortunes over recent years, reversing decades of population decline and securing high levels of investment. The city is now delivering high levels of growth, in both new housing and new jobs, and is helping to drive forward both Salford’s and the Greater Manchester economies. 1.2 The election of the Greater Manchester Mayor and increased devolution of responsibilities to Greater Manchester, and the Greater Manchester Combined Authority, is fundamentally changing the way Salford City Council works in areas of economic development, transport, work and skills, planning, policing and more recently health and social care. 1.3 Salford’s directly elected City Mayor has galvanised the city around eight core priorities – the Great Eight. Delivering against these core priorities will require the sustained commitment and partnership between councillors, partners in the private, public, community and voluntary and social enterprise sectors, and the city’s residents. This is even more the case in the light of ongoing national policy changes, the impending departure of the UK from the EU, and continued austerity in funding for vital local services. The city’s councillors will have an absolutely central role in delivering against these core priorities, working with all our partners and residents to harness the energies and talents of all of the city.

  • Prime Meridian (68) March 31, 2017
    Prime Meridian (68) March 31, 2017 As spring arrives in South East England, so does news of climate change from the poles. On March 7, Arctic sea ice reached its maximum annual spread, but this was the smallest on record. Meanwhile, around Antarctica, where autumn has now begun, sea ice shrank to its smallest recorded summer minimum on March 3, 2017. Daffodils bloom in the churchyard of St Peter and St Paul, Ash, Kent. March 25, 2017. The Northern Hemisphere's floating ice cap continues to shrink. Polar sea ice expands during the cold, dark months. This process reverses with the onset of spring. The USA's National Snow and Ice Data Center has reported that the Arctic sea ice reached its greatest extent for the year on March 7, when it covered 14.42 million km2. This was the smallest maximum in the 38 years of the satellite record and reflects a long-term reduction of sea ice extent for any given season (subject to weather fluctuations from year to year). The situation in the Antarctic is more complex. The annual minimum for the year took place on March 3 (NASA/NOAA DSCOVR image below). The extent of sea ice was 2.11 million km2, the lowest in the satellite record. However, unlike the Arctic, where the trend towards lower sea ice extent is unmistakeable, the trend in the Antarctic has previously been upwards, thanks to wind, currents, weather and climate change. The volume of the sea ice has been more difficult to determine. Seasons in South East England February, 2016 Above: Bare branches of an oak against a blue sky.

  • Prime Meridian Is Published As Part the Outreach Programme of the Ecospheres Project's Earth Campaign
    Above: The Sun sets behind the hedgerows near Ash, Kent as October 31, 2014 draws to a close. 23.6oC - the UK's warmest Prime Halloween on record. As the Sun sank below the horizon on Halloween 2014, some of us found ourselves thinking not Meridian so much about the seasonal festival of ghosts and ghouls, but about how strangely warm it (33) November 15, 2014 seemed for the time of year. The Met Office had predicted that October 31, A newsletter following global environmental 2014 would set a new temperature record, issues alongside the cycle of the seasons in o Southern England beating the high of 20 C observed at Dartford, Kent in 1968 and in areas of Greater London in 1989. This prediction was fulfilled before noon, when 20.5oC was recorded at Filton in Bristol. The Met Office had anticipated: “We could see highs of 21oC in the SE today”. A tweet from the Met Office at 12:20 GMT announced that "Charlwood has beaten Filton, recording 22.5 °C.” However, it was Gravesend along the Thames Estuary that set an all-time record of 23.6oC. High temperatures here were helped along by pollution from London, the urban heat island effect and wind directions. Meanwhile, temperatures exceeded 20oC at various locations in southern England and Wales. So far, every month except August has been warmer than normal, and there is a real possibility that 2014 will be the warmest year in the UK record. Of course, it would be poor science to seize upon local or regional weather extremes, cold or hot, as debating points for or against climate change; they must not be taken in isolation.

  • The Park Keeper
    The Park Keeper 1 ‘Most of us remember the park keeper of the past. More often than not a man, uniformed, close to retirement age, and – in the mind’s eye at least – carrying a pointed stick for collecting litter.

Samples were obtained from the main River Thames, tributaries, standing waters and the London Docks. The samples were examined for Total Coliforms and Escherichia coli to give a measure of faecal contamination. The results were compared with the standards given in E.C. Directive 76/I6O/EEC (Concerning the quality of bathing water). In general, coliform levels in river waters were higher than those in standing waters. At present, there are three EC Designated bathing areas in the River Thames catchment, none of which are situated on freshwaters. Compliance data calculated in this report is intended for comparison with the EC Directive only and is not statutory. Most sites sampled complied at least intermittently with the E.C. Imperative levels for both Total Coliforms and E.coli.
