#Newsquest newsrooms have been torn to pieces by cost-cutting, those at the top are living in luxury while front-line #journalists often live with parents or rely on a partner's income to afford to remain in their job nuj.org.uk/news/newsquest-mu… @CutsQuest #Gannett #media @IFJGlobal
Like the @SurreyComet reporters did

Population of St Ives 11,200. They get 10 Berliner sized pages jam-packed with well written local news - a really good read for £1.20. Population of Kingston 174,600. We get 44 tabloid pages of not very much at all, except adverts. Expensive at 65p. @CutsQuest

When people ask why I left... @CutsQuest “Newsquest does not value its journalists in Cumbria. Any journalist who joins this company should expect a future of continuous pay erosion. Our journalists have taken on more responsibility for diminishing reward” holdthefrontpage.co.uk/2018/…

That’s me done!I’m now officially unemployed after being made redundant by the wonderful NWN Media/Newsquest!
Looking forward to exciting times ahead with a new role in aviation as well as the @W_M_A awards night in @MercureCardifHH on 23rd March :)
Live to Win, Dare to Fail

Not odd at all. The decline of local journalism sadly. @WimbledonNews a mouthpiece for @Merton_Council most of them time. Even more important that #Merton #vocallocals keep residents informed on so many issues and encourage others to do so, particularly after May #localelections

Shame @WimbledonNews didn't stick to the plan of listing #LocalElections candidates as promised in last week's edition (see underlined in red)
Postal voters may miss the info that all the @RavensburyWard candidates supplied within 24hrs of being asked
#VoteIndependent
#VoteLocal – at Merton, London

I was a sub whose services were no longer required by Newsquest. Here are three recent examples which make me weep.

It's hardly surprising that vehicles get the flooded on Richmond & #TwickenhamRiverside when @richmondtimes publishes high tides times that are nearly 5 HOURS later than the times forecast by @AlanBarrierEA & @LondonPortAuth!
