Main Story (Front
Page); PORTISHEAD POLICE PARKING CONTROVERSY:
Policeman who are part of the Avon and Somerset constabulary
have caused controversy in the Portishead due the excessive amount cars parked
outside the northern entrance of the police headquarters. Members of the public
who live nearby in Nightingale Rise and Badger Rise have expressed their
frustration at the police officers blocking the road.
Police officers have been parking on the left hand side of
the road and sometimes it is just a line of cars that block road and many that
live nearby have said that it frustrates them that the roads are blocked and
they have stop to drive past.
Occasionally it has been reported that the barricade of
police cars has caused situations in which nearby residents get in each other’s
way due to them coming in different directions. “It’s completely ridiculous’
one spokesman said, “its frustrating
because the police are essential breaking their own rules and blocking the road
and many people are in a rush to get home”.
There has been no statement from anyone inside the police
headquarters as of yet and the consensus is that there are no enough parking
spaces inside the police headquarters leading to calls from the public to build
more parking spaces inside the station.

Page); TRUMP’S WIN CREATES UNCERTAINTY FOR BRISTOL BUSINESSES:
Donald Trump’s dramatic victory over Hillary Clinton in the
2016 United States presidential election has left Bristol and local businesses
reeling due the potential effect Trump’s victory could have on the stock
market.
It is feared that Trump’s shock election could have negative
connotations on the stock market and sources from businesses in Bristol
indicate that many think that this drastic shift in the stock market could have
negative effects on Bristol businesses.
Many were shocked
when Trump was successful in his attempts to get elected as United States
president, as many believed that his more experienced rival, Hillary Clinton
would win because she lead the polls earlier on Tuesday.
Many Americans are making anti-Trump protests in the States
and many Americans that live abroad, including Bristol, have been left stunned
by the result of the election.
There were even protests in Bristol as many Americans and
Bristol residents’ lit candles feeling dismayed at the result of the election
and many American residents who live in Bristol have spoken out and said that
they fear for the well-being of the United States.
Even Bristol Mayor, Marvin Rees, expressed his disappointment
over the result of the election. However, whether these changes in the stock
market are temporary remains to be seen for businesses located in Bristol.

Stories/Previews:
Story Preview 1: Coming
soon at the Bristol Hippodrome
The Bristol Hippodrome have announced that a Cinderella pantomime
based upon the folk tale of the same name will be performed between the 28th of
November and the 12th of December. The pantomime will star actress Maisie Williams
in the lead role of Cinderella.
The Emmy-nominated actress is Britol-born and
is most well known for playing ‘Arya Stark’ on HBO’s Game of Thrones.
The production will also feature skating champions and
former Olympic medallists Jayne Torvill and Christopher Dean who also feature
on the BBC’s Dancing on Ice to train celebrity skaters.
The duo will be in a
supporting role in the production playing Cinderella’s fairy godparents.
Tickets for the age-old tale are available now for just £12 and reporters from
the Chronicle paid a visit to the 3 stars.
Story Preview 2: Film
crews spotted at Clevedon School
Film crews have been spotted coming in and out of Clevedon
School and many eyewitnesses claim that Broadchurch stars David Tennant and
Olivia Coleman have also been sighted with the film crews.
This is unsurprising,
as previous series have predominately been filmed in Somerset, specifically
Clevedon.
The BBC confirmed that a third series of Broadchurch would
be returning in 2017 with filming beginning in the summer, so it was only a matter
of time when the BBC crews would be spotted in Clevedon.
The amount of scenes
that will feature Clevedon School remains to be seen and we will have to wait
until 2017 for answers.
Story Preview 3: New
Housing Estate being built nearby Gordano School
It appears that a new housing estate is being built in
Portishead nearby Gordano School according to eye-witness reports from
Portishead residents and Gordano students.
The new estate will have 10 brand
new houses in the area between Gordano School and the Albion pub on Bristol and
Clevedon Road.
Many have noted this as a peculiar area for a housing estate
as during the week between 9:00 am and 3:15pm it will be very busy due to
students coming in and out of school.
Whether these suspicions have any merit
will have to wait for the time being until the new housing estate is built.

Sports Review:
In football, Bristol City lost to Brighton, their second
loss in the past three games. Brighton took the lead in the 13th minute when
Steve Sidwell dispossessed Korey Smith and expertly chipped the the keeper from
an extraordinary 50 yards. Brighton would score again 7 minutes later through a
deflected Jamie Murphy strike and confine City to a defeat. City’s performance
was very flat and they created few chances in the second half, a continuation
of their poor performances since the international break.
City were not helped by the performance of high-flying
Brighton, who are unbeaten in their last 10 games, and City manager Lee Johnson
admitted that Brighton played his side off the park but admitted that he was frustrated
with Brighton’s first goal, saying that keeper Richard O’Donnell was too far
off his line.
The result leaves the Robins outside the play-off positions
for the first time this season and their fans will have to hope for a better
performance in their next game against Birmingham City.
Elsewhere, league games were off for teams in the lower
divisions due to the first round of the FA Cup. Bristol Rovers drew with
Crawley Town to condone them to a replay. Rovers struck first when Lee Brown
scored from a controversial free kick but Crawley levelled in the 35th minute
through Billy Clifford. Crawley would later have a man sent off but Rovers
failed to break Crawley down in the later stages of the game.
Yeovil and Cheltenham
Town also drew with lower league opposition, drawing 2-2 and 1-1 respectively.
In Rugby, Bristol were knocked out of the LV cup by Worcester after a 25 -31
loss.
