Title: New BBC locaL news website
Post by Mikej on Jul 23^rd, 2019, 11:04am

I see the BBC have now spoilt the home page for this for example at https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/england/london
I guess this is to make them loook like the current trend for "flashy/swipy/pretty pictures" site.
Horrid!
Bring back nice simple page.
I already have to us e"sitemap" version of our local council site (Ealing) and even my old school on.
I bet there is absolutely nothing the poor readers can do.

Our local page looks fine to me, what's the problem?
