Dear Editor, As we prepare ourselves for the ill-considered cutting of winter gritting routes, the closure of household recycling centres, and the emotional, practical and financial-fall out from a world-wide pandemic, the leader of Cheshire East Council fiddles as Rome burns. In an extraordinary statement, Cllr Corcoran (Labour) washed his hands of the debate on governance changes at Cheshire East[Read More…]
Dear Editor,
One of my aims as a Cheshire East Councillor is to improve the safety of our roads.
Anybody in Cheshire East who has crossed roads and roundabout junctions will have either been tooted off the road, or not been ‘allowed’ to cross.
Dear Editor,
The UK’s leading heart charity, the British Heart Foundation (BHF) needs the support of the local community now more than ever.
Following the Government’s announcement of a second lockdown, we were forced to close our shops in the North West until Thursday December 3.
Dear Editor,
With another national lockdown in place, Age UK has sadly had to close the doors of its 250 charity shops across the country for a second time.
But some good news is there’s still a way for locals in the North West to bag themselves a bargain and support older people most in need whilst their nearest Age UK shop is closed.
Dear Editor,
The demolition of Crewe’s vacant Royal Arcade shopping centre has begun.
‘Putting Crewe First’ says that the site should be used as a convenient town centre car park, until it is needed for redevelopment, to encourage shoppers back into the town, after the four week lockdown closure of all non-food shops.
Dear Editor
Wherever possible I implore your readership to please continue to support small businesses during England’s second national lockdown.

On the 14/10, Health Secretary Matt Hancock said: “Our strategy is to suppress the virus, supporting the economy, education & the NHS until a vaccine makes us safe.”
This is another blatant, bare-faced lie from Hancock.
Dear Editor,
I read our MP’s justification for voting down the extension of meal vouchers during the half term holiday with interest.
Dear Editor,
I am writing in response to a letter (dated 18/10/20) ‘What’s happening with TV licences for over 75s?’
For clarification, the new scheme covering the over 75s licence fee concession came into effect from 1 August this year, not October as the letter suggests.
Dear Editor,
I just have to ask if anyone over 75 who now has had to buy a TV licence like me feels conned.
