- [No, WW3 Isn’t About to Start — Here’s Why](https://jack-bromby.com/no-ww3-isnt-about-to-start-heres-why/): If you’ve been reading the news lately, you might be under the impression that World War 3 is right around the corner. In fact, some UK tabloids — The Daily Express and The Mirror in particular — seem to mention it at least two or three times a day. Whether it’s a missile launch, a military drill, or a political spat, it’s quickly spun into a headline suggesting we’re on the edge of global war.

I joined JustEat a few months later as there was no availability in my area at that time, and only this month, I have also been approved to work on Stuart. Although I’m yet to do any shifts with them yet. Recently, I was thinking about work and how it might be best to stay motivated while working deliveries. While it can be a rewarding job, it can also
- [Permission refused for new Hartlepool nightclub](https://jack-bromby.com/9221549976-2/): Hartlepool Borough Council has this week refused permission to convert the premises at 117 York Road into a nightclub, citing a number of concerns. The application was submitted by applicant, Ashley Johns, in February this year before being validated in May. The council made its decision on Thursday (7th November) issuing a full refusal to the applicant. Comments from local residents were largely negative towards the application citing potentially antisocial behaviour issues, which is already a major concern in the area. Issuing a refusal for the application, Hartlepool Borough Council cited impact on nearby neighbouring properties in terms of noise
