WME Flickr Focus - June 2019

In these days of Brexit uncertainty and leadership contests, what we need is a photostream you can trust. Ladies and gentleman, I present you with West Midlands Exploration, eager to earn your nomination with a raft of June announcements...

Chief spokesperson of course is WME Wolverhampton with a series of headline-grabbing pledges. Among the new policy commitments are the inclusion of Penn Fields war memorial, Molineux Alley, Oxley Food Store and Pendeford Lane. There are also some earnest references to bygone boozers as both the Staffordshire Volunteer and the Neachells have their pub signs duly documented. 

WME Staffordshire meanwhile gives you more... more Newcastle-under-Lyme (underpass welcome tiles and a Pepper Street mural), more Pattingham (the village hall), more Penn Common (the 18th tee on the local golf course) and more canals (Mops Farm Bridge). Not to be outdone, WME Birmingham promises boosts for the Jewellery Quarter (Legge Lane, the Newman Brothers Coffin Works) and Moor Pool (some hall lettering).

Out and about on the hustings roadshow are the combined talents of WME Dudley and WME Telford. Dudley unleashes its Ma Pardoe's trump card - Old Swan signage in Netherton - plus a Northway nugget from the Cabin, whereas Telford goes completely Quackers by enlisting the support of some Ironbridge-based ducks. It's always important to be totally sensible at times of political crisis so Natural Bee-uty and Dr Duck are just the characters we need!

Beavering away in the background trying to keep everything still running smoothly, let's not forget the efforts of WME Walsall (a Pool Hayes pub dartboard), WME Sandwell (Oldbury Lock No. 6 on the Titford Canal) and WME Worcestershire (the Golden Cross pub at Redditch). Our closing campaign statement is then delivered by WME Warwickshire with representation for the Rose at Nuneaton.

That then completes the photostream's June manifesto. I can't guarantee Brexit or resolve the Irish backstop issue but I can bring you further photos in July, so I urge you to vote for WME!
