Local news photographers are hugely skilled and poorly paid, and get sent to photograph miserable people gurning at uncooked meat products. Here, we celebrate their work.

"The Tawny Owl pub in Abbey Meads was besieged by voters late on Thursday evening, anxious to cast their ballots for both the General and local council elections."
Shouldn't that read, '..anxious to buy drinks'?
I've just got an election.
I've been to Swindon and it is EXACTLY like Iraq.
I also admire the dedication of the person who made 3 trips to the pub to vote.
Yeah, right.
She'd certainly make me lose my deposit.
At first she was a bit conservative, but after a few drinks she became liberal and 9 months later she was in labour.
Four hours. Not bad.
I hope she appreciated the effort..
The whole comparison of Swindon to Iraq reminded me of David Brent's 'stand-up' routine in Episode 1 of Season 2.
I'm not sure if that's good or bad.
