  Brett Hawksley’s Drug Ring Exposed | Leicester News

  Aug 19, 20261 min

  Brett Hawksley, the self-proclaimed “Del Boy of the estate,” thought he could skate by with cash and drugs, but his phone’s messages exposed him as a full-blown crack and heroin dealer. With a rap sheet longer than most people’s arms and a history of weapons and illegal dog charges, he tried to spin it as an addict with a stash — but texts showed he was actively pushing. His lawyer begged for leniency, claiming rehab was his real goal, but the judge doubted it, calling him a peddler of misery. He got a suspended sentence: 18 months clean, mandatory rehab, and a warning — mess up, and he’s straight to prison.

  Fryer Fire at Thurnby Chippy | Leicester News

  Aug 19, 20261 min

  A fiery fryer disaster at Thurnby Chippy sent flames roaring through a multi-story building, forcing evacuations of residents and nearby shops—thanks to a dangerously overheated oil pot. Fire crews raced in, swiftly contained the blaze, and conducted thorough safety sweeps, including overnight checks. No injuries, but a stark reminder: never douse hot oil with water—it’s a recipe for chaos. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.

  Your Postcode Dictates Your Lifespan | Leicester News

  Aug 19, 20262 min

  Your postcode should never decide how long you live — yet it does, in a shocking national crisis where life expectancy gaps between rich and poor areas like Marylebone and Blackpool stretch up to 18 years. Dr. Amir Khan, who grew up in a working-class neighborhood, reveals how damp homes, financial stress, and lack of access to basics like healthy food and transport are crushing health — not just genetics. With a powerful art installation showing “expiry dates” for life based on zip code, he and Health Equals are rallying public and political support. Ninety-five percent agree this is unacceptable — and the fix isn’t pills, it’s policy: fixing housing, education, and equity so everyone can thrive, not just survive.
