I am a PhD student and currently struggling to search the newspaper over the (approx.) thirty year period from 1895 to 1927. Please, please upload this. The Chiswick Times became the Brentford and Chiswick Times in 1927 or 1928, and so the two are essentially one title.

birkenhead
The Birkenhead News and Birkenhead Advertiser together have 186 votes but there is no sign of either title being digitised when others with fewer votes are being included. Wirral is not Liverpool and Liverpool newspapers were no substitute for local reporting and in many cases reported the same national and international events.
I accept that not every title can be digitised but many of the earlier issues of these Birkenhead titles are too fragile to be seen at the British Library and are in danger of being lost altogether unless they are digitised. What is your criteria for inclusion in…

I am doing research into the politics of the period 1919-1929. There appears to be fewer pages covering this period. Any more would help
I am doing research into British politics of the period 1919-1929. A period that included 4 General Elections and the National Strike of 1926. There appears to be fewer pages covering this period. Any more would be very helpful. Thanks

"Morning Post"
This was a major national newspaper and long-lived. Existing BNA coverage is extensive but ends at 1909, leaving a gap from 1910 to 1937, when the title was merged with the Daily Telegraph. Please fill the gap.

North Devon Gazette for 1875
The year 1875 is missing and yet I know from a clipping obtained by an Ancestry user that a distant relative of mine was crushed to death by a runaway horse and cart in Swimbridge, Devon in May/June of that year. I need to know more!
