The government’s halted plans for powers and resources to be handed to a
single mayor covering the Yorkshire region.
It says discussions on the issue can’t take place until an agreement for
South Yorkshire has been fully implemented.
The Local Government Minister, James Brokenshire, has written to the 18
council leaders who back the One Yorkshire deal.
He says he won’t talk to them until a deal already arranged for South
Yorkshire has been fully implemented.
The problem is Barnsley and Doncaster won’t agree to the South Yorkshire
deal because they want to join the rest of Yorkshire.
The 18 council leaders are meeting tomorrow to consider their next moves.

- wathupondearne Latest news in Yorkshire: January 24, 2019 11:28:24 AM Scotland’s former First Minister Alex Salmond has been arrested by police and charged, with a report sent to the procurator fiscal. He is due to appear in court in Edinburgh later today. Sky News are reporting that proceedings are now live under the Contempt of Court Act. Police did not say what Salmond, who served as first minister from 2007 to 2014, is charged with. Two people have made harassment complaints against the SNP grandee but he denies them and took successful legal action against the Scottish government over their investigation. Earlier this month a court said the government’s decisions were “procedurally unfair and… tainted with apparent bias”. At the time Salmond said he is “not guilty of any criminality whatsoever.” The party leader resigned following the loss of the Scottish independence referendum but represented Gordon in the House of Commons from 2015 to 2017.
