Dear Editor,
Labour run Cheshire East need to re-think plans for Crewe Town Centre. Their plans have zero chance of success.
No point in building new shops when 44 shops have been vacant for far too long.
Dear Editor,
Seven bins per house could be needed under ‘crazy’ new recycling laws.
District Councils’ Network estimates that implementing recycling changes will cost almost half-a-billion pounds a year for seven years.
Dear Editor,
I was contacted last night by my energy supplier to inform me the EBSS (energy support scheme) was ending on 31st March.
Based on the last twelve months they estimate, based on usage, my Electricity Costs from April 2023 to March 2024 would reduce by £21-14 and Gas would increase by £2-27.
Dear Editor,

Dear Editor
As many of you are aware, there is new government legislation in place that requires people to bring ID to the polling station.
This isn’t a problem for people who readily have a bus pass, driving licence or passport to hand but for those who don’t and are not digitally savvy, this presents a barrier to them voting, which is a concern.
Dear Editor,
For the first time ever, voters in this year’s local elections for Cheshire East council will have to bring photo ID to the polling station.
This isn’t a small adjustment – voter ID is the biggest change to our elections in a generation and creates new barriers between the public and the ballot box.
Dear Editor,
An Open Letter regarding the future of Crewe FC to Lorraine O’Donnell, Sam Corcoran & Cheshire East Council:
As you know, Crewe FC have been trying for many years (since 2016) to get a new venue that can be the home for our club and help meet the incredible demand there is locally for boys and girls to play football.
Dear Editor,
As we all struggle with rising inflation and energy bills, I’m delighted that Cheshire East is to receive a further £4,407,784 of Government Funding to extend the Household Support Fund for another year until 31st March 2024.
This is in addition to the £2.2m of this same grant that Cheshire East Council received from Government for the year 2022-2023, and represents the council’s share of £842 million of additional funding that will be allocated from 1st April to help the most vulnerable households across England.
Dear Editor,
I asked earlier this week: Is anyone else questioning the allocation of the dedicated schools grant, due to be ratified at next week’s CE’s Children & Families Committee? That meeting was held – and the answer is no.
Just to clarify the situation for everyone, the grant money has been allocated at three different rates based on deprivation factors.
Dear Editor,
Crewe’s Valley Brook is a graveyard for abandoned supermarket trolleys.
Taxpayers’ funding of over £3 MILLION has been granted for the Valley Brook Corridor in Crewe.
Dear Editor,
As we approach the budget setting council meeting at Cheshire East I have to ask:
Is anyone else questioning the allocation of the dedicated schools grant, due to be ratified at next week’s CE’s Children & Families Committee?
Dear Editor
It’s ridiculous that no-one seems to be able to up-date residents as to when the new Reaseheath/Kingsbourne Estate A51 by-pass will open.
Dear Editor,
Labour-run Cheshire East should NOT be gambling the hard earned Council taxes of local people on property speculation.
In 2019 Labour run Cheshire East bought the B&Q site in Weston Road, Crewe for £22.3m.
