I think you're being a little harsh. The BBC does have a remit to cover local as well as national news. OK, for the majority of us, the Cambridgeshire local news section of the BBC News website isn't going to be in our bookmarks list, but they do still need to cover dull little events like this!

No, it means something that is not chemically reative. i.e. (from GCSE science) A nobal gas is inert.(how can anybody think that inert means inertia?)
