Local musicians have teamed up to perform a special charity show. Rock The Lockdown raised £500 for Middlewich Foodbank last March. Middlewich Labour is organising another similar event on Saturday, January 30 in aid of Middlewich Round Table. Photo Booth Smile will headline supported by Gareth Heesom, Christie Bratherton, Kieran Davies and Frank Quilty.
Gareth Heesom So many local musicians offered to sing, another gig is already in the pipeline. Cllr Jonathan Parry said: I love my music and had quite a lot of tickets for concerts last year which were postponed. This is the next best thing. We want to showcase local artists and give them a platform. We had more artists than we could use for this gig so we hope to run another one in February if this one goes well.

This was an important message because there had been feverish speculation in the markets that the move to deprive our two largest states of their prized AAA monikers presaged a similar sovereign downgrade.

S&P still has Australia on a ânegative outlookâ, which means there is a one-in-three chance it could push the nation down to the AA band in the next couple of years. Our central case has, however, been that Australia will retain its AAA rating. We expected the Victorian downgrade but were surprised by the decision regarding NSW, which we believe S&P will eventually be forced to reverse.
