FIREFIGHTERS are currently tackling a blaze at a scrapyard in Wokingham. Multiple fire engines are in Highfields Avenue at the A1 Scrap Yard site dealing with the fire, which started at about 2am.

The group is set for around an extra £8 million a year in costs from April’s higher national insurance contributions and minimum wage rise.

Strike action by drivers at Stagecoach West Scotland will be suspended from 3pm on Wednesday while a new pay offer is put to an all-members ballot.
