MOTORISTS face travel chaos after the ‘dock road’ was closed for four weeks for repair work as the council paves the way for the new Isle of Man Ferry Terminal.

The Waterloo Road/Regent Road route, which connects Bootle to the city centre, closed on Monday, November 12 and will remain shut for four weeks so contractors can install underground utility and drainage works for the new £7.6million waterfront link road.

This is being built for the Isle of Man Ferry Terminal, at Princes Dock, and will also benefit commuters heading in and out of the city centre.

Work taking place on the dock road During the works, traffic will be diverarteries for the city centre but the problem we have ted to parallel routes such as Great Howard Street/Derby Road (A565), Scotland Road is that they have been neglected for decades and we need to ensure they are not just fit for now, but for (A59) and Stanley Road and Great Homer Street.

Resident writes a poignant letter to three brothers who once lived at her address and were all killed in the war

A parade marches past the Five Lamps memorial in Waterloo.

Young and old gathered to remember the fallen Report by Tom Martin HUNDREDS of locals gathered at Remembrance Day services held in Crosby, Litherland and Waterloo to honour fallen soldiers on the 100th anniversary of the end of the First World War. Local residents were joined by politicians, including the Mayor of Sefton Cllr Dave Robinson and Sefton Central MP Bill Esterson for the services held at Alexandra Park, in Crosby, Sefton Road War Memorial in Litherland, Five Lamps War Memorial in Waterloo and Sefton Parish Church in Aintree on Sunday, November 11.

Elsewhere, staff and pupils from St Mary ’s College in Crosby turned out in force to support a number of Remembrance Day activities.

Sunday's service, which was held at the school, was given added poignancy as 91-year-old Jimmy Highton was invited along because he headed up St Mary’s Combined Cadet Members of the St Mary’s Combined Cadet Force pictured during the ceremony.

IN the build-up to Sunday, November 11, nearly 2,000 information packs were sent out to households in Sefton, which included the details of those who lived at that address and died in action.

It was part of a project by Sefton Council called Beyond the War Memorials and a website documents the names and biographical details of nearly 4,000 men and women who were killed in the war, including those of 18 men from one small terraced street.

The council said it hoped the project would provide “a living digital biography” to add to the names of the dead listed on 11 historical memorials Teri Whitaker with throughout the borBill Esterson MP ough.

One resident who responded was 70-yearold Teri Whitaker, from Crosby, who lives in a house formerly occupied by brothers Robert, Douglas and Archibald Grossart, who were all killed in the war aged 19, 20 and 21.

Teri was invited to write a letter to them, which she entitled ‘A Letter to Three Brothers’ and this features in an online video made as part of the Beyond the War Memorials project.

The letter says: “Dear Robert, Douglas and Archibald. You don't know me. You died 30 years before I was born. Thank you so much for your bravery. You are not forgotten.”

Teri met MP Bill Esterson at the Remembrance Day service held at Alexandra Park.

He added: “Tribute must be paid to all those who lost their lives in the Great War and also to those involved in this project which serves as a permanent reminder of their sacrifice.

“It is projects such as these that will ensure they truly are never forgotten.”

Man jailed for breach of restraining order

{

A MAN from Bootle who luckily escaped being sent to jail after assaulting his partner has now been put behind bars after breaching a restraining order to keep away from her.

Barry Jones was given a 15 month suspended prison sentence last month after admitting assaulting Lisa Kellagher causing actual bodily harm.

He was also given a three month curfew with an electronic tag and banned from contacting Ms Kellagher.

But the firm installing the tag monitoring equipment was unable to do so as the address he had given was inaccurate and on learning about the problem Judge Andrew Menary, QC, ordered Jones to come back to court.

However he did not attend and the judge heard that the probation had had trouble communicating with him and he had not responded to requirements of the order including supervision.

The case was re-listed but Jones still failed to attend and the judge issued a bench warrant on November 1 and he appeared from custody.

“Police officers found you at the home of Lisa Kellagher, your former partner, the person you were prohibited from having any contact with,” said Judge Menary.

He said his former partner may have been willing for him to be at her Seaforth home but “this was a flagrant breach of the restraining order.”

He pointed out he had been fortunate not to have gone straight to jail in October as it was “an unpleasant” assault resulting in his victim being injured.

The judge said he had originally suspended the jail sentence because he had spent two and half

months on remand and the probation service thought they could help him “turn your chaotic life style around and break your cycle of offending.”

But on Friday, November 9 he re-sentenced 45year-old Jones, of Peel Road, Bootle, for the assault with an immediate 15 month term and three months consecutive for breaching the restraining order.

Liverpool Crown Court heard at the original hearing how during the assault he had thrown Ms Kellagher from a sofa at a property in Bootle on July 10 this year, punched her and threatened to kill her.

Paul Lewis, defending, said that his partner had been hiding Jones from the police and he had given the wrong address because he was not certain of it.

Drug driver used cocaine for back pain court heard By our Court Reporter A MAN from Litherland caught drug driving had been using cocaine to deal with pain from a broken back, a court has heard.

As Dean Atkinson, 33, of Ashley Close, appeared at Sefton Magistrates Court on November 7, it was heard that he drew the attention of police in Kirkby on August 20 as he appeared to sit back in the seat of his Ford Focus, “as if trying to conceal himself.”

Prosecutor Angela Blackmore said that checks on his car showed that other police forces had also made checks on the vehicle “He then took an unusual route through residential streets before stopping at the leisure centre car park,” she said.

A search of his car revealed that a packet of Tramadol tablets, prescribed to him, the prosecutor said adding that he told police he had broken his back in two places and was on medication for the pain.

He said he had taken the pain killer cocodamol prior to driving, she said, and he “appeared to be spaced out.”

Mrs Blackmore said that a roadside saliva test proved positive for cocaine.

A subsequent blood test showed he had 117 micrograms of benzoylecgonine per litre.

Benzoylecgonine is produced in the liver on the breakdown of cocaine and the legal limit when driving being 50mcg/l.

The court heard that Atkinson had eight previous convictions for 18 offences, including for drugs matters and two for drink driving. He had also appeared in court for drug driving on August 28.

Representing himself, Atkinson said: “At the time I was driving I was not on drugs. I broke my back in two places but the medication I was given was not strong enough for the pain.

“I will be honest that I took a little cocaine to help with the pain but I was not on it then, I stopped it completely since. I have learnt my lesson.”

The magistrates fined him £120, ordered that he pay costs and victim surcharge of £115 and banned him from driving for 12 months concurrent to a ban he was given for a drug driving offence in August.

Plan for 14 homes set for go-ahead Report by Tom Martin A PLAN to build 14 homes on a field next to Broom’s Cross Road looks set to go ahead despite the objections of some residents.

The Champion reported last month how housing firm Forth Homes has targeted an empty patch of land on Holgate Road, in Thornton, which is near to the A5758 link road.

A petition has been signed by 39 people, including Councillor John Joseph Kelly, opposing the proposal.

Reds legend Grobbelaar visits shop to sign autobiography

Bookshop owner Steve Pritchard with Bruce Grobbelaar

LIVERPOOL legend Bruce Grobbelaar has been meeting fans and signing copies of his autobiography in Crosby.

The former Reds goalkeeper, aged 61, was invited to Pritchard's Bookshop, in Crosby Village, on Saturday, November 3 to promote his new book Life in a Jungle.

Grobbelaar is the most decorated goalkeeper in Liverpool FCs 125-year history, having won six league titles, three FA Cups, three Football League Cups and a European Cup during his 14 year spell at the club.

He’s perhaps most known for his iconic ‘spaghetti legs’ antics during the European Cup final penalty shoot-out victory against Roma in 1984.

His autobiography covers his illustrious career, but also details how he had to face match fixing allegations and fought to clear his name.

Nervous look gave away a cannabis user to the police A CANNABIS user from Seaforth gave himself away by a nervous look when he saw police.

The 43-yer-old pleaded guilty to possession of cannabis at Sefton Magistrates Court on November 7.

Prosecutor Angela Blackmore said: “It was October 3 at five past eight in the evening on Stanley

Road, Bootle, when the defendant was seen by officers. He appeared to be nervous on seeing the police vehicle. They stopped and checked and there was a noticeable smell of cannabis and a cannabis reefer was recovered.”

The magistrates fined him £200 with £115 in costs.

Police raid properties in operation to target County Lines drug gangs

A damaged railing at a junction on the road.

Highways England called on to improve upkeep of A5036 road Council call standard of maintenance of gateway to Sefton ‘unacceptable’

A PROPERTY in Maghull was raided last Thursday (November 8) as part of a nationwide police operation to tackle organised crime.

Search warrants were executed at around 30 properties across the country, including ten addresses in Merseyside as police targeted people suspected of trafficking drugs around the country.

Four people were arrested in Merseyside in a joint operation between Merseyside Police and the North West Regional Organised Crime Unit with a further eight arrested in Devon and Cornwall and three in South Wales.

It followed an extensive investigation into the trafficking of Class A and B drugs into Police enter a propert during the operation.

MISTED WINDOWS? UPVC FAULTS?

Report by Tom Martin COUNCIL chiefs have penned a damning letter to Highways England demanding better maintenance of the A5036 after describing it as “completely unacceptable.”

The correspondence, signed by Sefton Council Leader Ian Maher and chief executive Margaret Carney, claims overgrown grass verges, excessive weeds and damaged pavement on the busy road is causing a “detrimental effect on the health and well-being of residents.”

Highways England look after the A5036, which runs from Switch Island and all the way to the Port of Liverpool and includes Dunningsbridge Road, Church Road and Princess Way. The Champion has reported how the governmentowned company had looked at the possibility of “upgrading” the busy road in a bid to improve transport links between Switch Island and the dock, but instead they opted for the option of building a new road through Rimrose Valley Country Park.

Sefton Council now want them to improve maintenance of the A5036, which was penned in a letter in September and has now been sent to Labour Party members in the Bootle area.

The letter states: “We are extremely proud of Sefton, our residents, businesses and visitors and A5036 is one of the key corridors into the borough from the motorway network.

“It is extremely disappointing that the first thing people are greeted with when they leave Switch Island is overgrown verges and excessive weeds.

“This is not the gateway to Sefton that we want or that our residents and communities deserve.

“It has a significant detrimental effect on reputation, potential inward investment and the health and well-being of residents.

“We fully appreciate that funding to deliver such services is becoming more challenging each year, however, it is our understand that funding has not been previously cited as the reason behind the issues described.

“Therefore, we can only assume that either your

contractor is failing to perform or they are not being actively managed, or a combination of both.

“Either way it is completely unacceptable for you to continue to ignore the needs of the community and expect them to accept the extremely poor standard of service you are currently providing.”

A spokesperson for Highways England said: “The A5036 provides a vital link between the motorway network and the Port of Liverpool and we carry out weekly inspections to make sure it meets high safety standards, including repairing large potholes within 24 hours and cutting back any weeds that reduce visibility at junctions.

“We’re also carrying out a £3 million project to improve journeys and safety at Switch Island which is on schedule to be completed this winter.

“Local councils are responsible for litter picking on A roads, and we’re keen to work with Sefton Council to ensure this can take place to help improve the appearance of the route.”

A FUND has been set-up to help towards a Crosby youngster's dream of becoming a ballet star.

Nine year old Isaac Morgan wants to become a professional dancer with The Royal Ballet Company and is showing promising signs following a number of impressive achievements in last few years.

The talented youngster has previously gained a place at the prestigious National Youth Ballet of Great Britain and he attended the prestigious Elm Hurst Ballet school of dance in Birmingham as a boarder for ten days, which gave him an insight into life at a full time ballet school.

He has also won first place in the 8-9 age category at the UK Dance Class Championships and was invited to a workshop at the Royal Ballet School in London.

Isaac, who is a member of Crosby-based Proctor Dance Academy, has also previously been awarded a place as a junior associate with The Royal Ballet School as well as achieving an unprecedented 94% for this Royal Academy of Dance examination.

AS

Report by Tom Martin

He is currently waiting on news of his bid to attend a week-long summer camp at The Royal Ballet School, in London.

However, if he is successful in gaining a place he would need to pay for the likes of train tickets, accommodation, attire and auditions.

His proud mum Gaynor Morgan has therefore launched an online fundraising page to help raise £1,500 to help towards the costs.

Gaynor said: “Isaac has had a busy year to date!

“He continues attending the Proctor Dance Academy where he partakes in Jazz, Modern, Tap and Ballet weekly and also continues to travel to Manchester three times a month attending the Royal Ballet Associate Programme.

“Isaac is eagerly awaiting if he has successfully gained a place at The Royal Ballet School for a week-long intensive summer school training 2019.

“Meanwhile Isaac will be appearing in Swan Lake at The Empire in Liverpool with the English National Ballet from November 21-24 as the page boy!”

LIVING WELL SEFTON IS HERE TO HELP YOU HELP YOURSELF This is Self Care Week where the spotlight is on self care for life and that is where Living Well Sefton, the local wellbeing organisation, can help. Its partners have a range of activities, as well as Living Well Mentors to support people on a one-to-one basis to make healthy lifestyle choices. Here is a selection of what is on offer.

May Logan Centre, Bootle The Roots project (pictured) is a great way to meet new people, build some physical activity into your life and learn how to grow your own fruit and vegetables. One participant said she has made new friends. “It has benefited me in a lot of ways because it gets me out in the open,” she explained. Taking part has encouraged her to do more exercise, eat more fresh food and motivated her to join other weekly activities at the May Logan Centre such as the walking and the ‘Knit & Natter’ groups.

Brighter Living Partnership, Southport Based in Southport Community Centre on Norwood Road, the Brighter Living Partnership has a weekly programme of activities including healthy cookery courses (pictured), social groups, lunch and film clubs. One of the people who went on the Brighter Mondays course said: “Since coming to the group I have felt a lot better in myself. These people really make a difference and I will definitely keep in touch with them. We came here as strangers and leave as friends.”

Feelgood Factory, Netherton Choose from the Stress Clinic, men’s walking group, various mental health groups and a bereavement group.

These activities have supported people through difficult times and given them

confidence to look at life in a more positive way.

Mr G was referred to one of the Living Well mentors based in the Feelgood Factory by his GP to help alleviate the pain associated with a bad back. “During the lifestyle assessment we felt Mr G’s main priority was his mental wellbeing and his diet. He attended Pilates for his back which reduced his pain and we also set a goal to eat a more balanced diet with less salt and sugar,” explains Philomena Zilinski, Healthy Living Services Manager, who added that Mr G has felt much better after losing weight and enjoyed being a part of the group.

Living Well Sefton mentors The Living Well mentors are based in all the partners and have helped many local residents to improve their lives, such as Mrs M, who had severe medical conditions making it difficult to get around and clean her home. This made her anxious as she didn’t like to ask friends or neighbours to help and had no money to pay for a cleaner.

Her GP referred her to Living Well Sefton and, through a chat with the mentor it was discovered that Mrs M wasn’t claiming benefits she was entitled to. Now, after receiving the higher rate, Mrs M can pay a cleaner to help around the house, do the washing and prepare light meals. Mrs M said: “I didn’t believe I would qualify for the benefit and had to be encouraged to apply. I am so pleased I did as the quality of my life has improved so much. I feel that a burden has been lifted from me.”

Living Well Sefton also has a selection of funding opportunities which support local communities and staff to keep well.

The fifth round of the Community Resilience Grant is open with grants of up to £2,000 for organisations and £500 to individuals, who are supported by a organisational partner. The deadline for applications is Friday, November 30. To apply visit: www.livingwellsefton. org.uk Paper versions of the application form can also be downloaded from the website.

Call the team on 0300 323 0181 or email LWS@seftoncvs.org.uk for further details.

The £500 Workplace Wellbeing grant is for small to mediumsized organisations to go towards helping improve staff wellbeing by covering sessional work such as: yoga; volunteer costs; equipment such as bike racks to encourage active travel to work; training courses with a wellbeing focus and events to support the wellbeing of staff.

Prolific burglar who targeted homes across Sefton is jailed for five years Report by Lynda Roughley

Carl Parkinson.

A PROLIFIC burglar who targeted homes across Sefton has been jailed for five years.

Carl Parkinson, of no fixed abode, broke-into houses in Crosby, Southport, Maghull and Kirkdale between Septem-

ber and October this year.

Liverpool Crown Court heard on Tuesday, November 6 how the 34-yearold used trains to target homes near the railway line.

Some of the items he stole included a handbag from a home in Birkdale and a Mercedes car from a house in Crosby.

He was put behind bars for five years for four burglary offences and other

theft related incidents.

Detective Inspector Andy McCourt from the anti-burglary campaign Operation Castle said: “I hope this sentencing shows the public that we’ll continue to pursue prolific offenders and those committing crime in our communities.

“We rely on information sharing and the vigilance of the public, our partners and local businesses in coming forward

to help us investigate all crimes and bring offenders to justice.

“Burglaries leave victims feeling vulnerable and often alone. However, we’ll keep working to put offenders behind bars and make our communities as safe as they can be.

“If you’ve also been a victim of crime, please call us on 101 or DM @MerPolCC so we can investigate accordingly.”

Hannah’s war horse sculpture chosen for special service

A CREATIVE fine art graduate from Litherland was chosen to create a horse sculpture for a special Remembrance Day service.

Hannah Kelly was delighted to have her work, entitled ‘Legion’, featured at a service held at Birkenhead Town Hall to mark 100 years since the end of World War One. The horse was made from foam board and paper, which Hannah says gave the sculpture a “ghostly and fragile sense.”

On top of this, she also handmade 100 red poppies and purple poppies to represent the animals which were killed during the Great War. Hannah said: “The roots of my work are to be found in the heroic history of animals throughout the First and Second World Wars.

“My visits to the memorials and locations of these conflicts in France have been key to my inspiration.

“In the sometime forgotten history of these animals we can see the dangers of forgetting all of those who have made the ultimate sacrifice in conflict.

“My sculpture is made from foam board and paper, the white paper gives the horse a ghostly and fragile sense.

“I also hand made 100 red poppies for the 100th anniversary and purple poppies to represent animals in conflict.

“It was installed and displayed in time for afternoon tea with Dame Patricia Routledge, Frank Field MP, the Mayor and Mayoress and several other councillors and VIPS on Thursday, November 8.

“My sculpture then remained in the main hall for Remembrance Sunday. After the service at the cenotaph it was then illuminated with vibrant lights and dramatic sounds.

“This gave the attended people a sense of remembrance and solace.

“He will be taken to the Williamson art gallery in Birkenhead.

This will be his resting place and home for all to see and enjoy.

“It was a great honour to have had my work displayed and chosen to represent this enormous event and remembrance. Me and my family are immensely proud.”

LETTERS to the Editor

See if your ancestor was a war volunteer with the Red Cross

On Sunday, November 11, the people of the UK commemorated the centenary of the end of World War One. The British Red Cross has a near 150-year history of supporting people in the UK during times of crisis and, between 1914 and 1918, more than 90,000 people volunteered for the organisation, working as Voluntary Aid Detachments (VADs) in auxiliary hospitals at home and overseas.

The vast majority were ordinary women, and men, who cared for the wounded and sick, drove ambulances and acted as clerks, cooks and storekeepers.

They gave dedicated and compassionate humanitarian service at a time of national crisis and the role of women during the war, in particular, led to significant social change, driven by their war experiences, seeking greater opportunities in the workplace and securing the same voting rights as men in 1928.

Given the sheer number of people who volunteered as VADs during World War One, it seems likely that many of your readers will have ancestors who gave service during the conflict.

Now, readers can use our new online VAD database to find out if their ancestors, especially women relatives, performed a civilian role during the war.

Searchable by name, location and occupation, the database includes service records and, in some cases, photographs.

Anyone can access the website at www.vad.redcross.org.uk and potentially discover new and illuminating facets to their family history.

Car park needs to resurfaced with the bays marked clearly

Re: Maghull Central Square parking problems.

Hardly a week goes by and another report of a parking fine is issued due to lack of clear markings.

Some time ago, when the state of the tarmac surface was questioned, a ‘survey ’ was supposed to be underway to investigate the surface with a view to resurfacing.

Did this survey ever happen and what was the outcome?

It seems to me that the owners of this parking areas are content with substandard patch-up jobs, done by substandard contractors who finish the job off with a loose gravel top.

This then gets painted with bay markers. Lo and behold, a few weeks later, the gravel has loosened and the bay

markings rapidly disappear into oblivion.

Will this parking area ever be resurfaced properly with a sustainable surface or are the owners quite happy to have it as it is, knowing that it is a continual cash cow to issue parking fines?

How can the owners of the square be serious about modernising and attracting new business when access to the shops resembles something from the dark ages.

Maybe if these bays were permanently clearly marked, any parking tickets issued would not be such a bitter pill to swallow.

I can't thank you enough for the incredible quick thinking and reactions that you demonstrated.

Decent families should ignore yobs in the park I was coming through Coronation Park in Crosby about 5.15pm on October 25.

There was a gang of around 20 yobs on mountain bikes doing their usual wheelie stunts.

Now bearing in mind the new restrictions on dogs in the parks.

Is it not now time that we put restrictions on the use of bikes in the parks?

It is plain to see the effect these yobs have on families with young children.

As soon as the yobs show up, the families leave.

They cycle around the play area where the swings are, just to show that they can get away with it.

I appeal to the decent families to ignore these yobs.

Always remember the decent people outnumber the yobs and vandals.

There are already too many lorries on road Model boat club members need a proper clubhouse

There are already problems with too many large vehicles using Dunningsbridge Road.

We now read in the Champion that a large haulage firm (JWT) employing

around 135 emplyees, is moving into the docks.

That will mean more lorries going up and down Dunningsbridge Road, hogging the outside lanes as they always

do. As if we haven’t got enough to put up with already?

With reference to your report of the cleaning of the lake in Coronation Park.

Last year when the pond had to be cleaned of the horrible slime that had amassed in the water which I think was caused by the bread people throw in the water to feed the ducks.

Myself and another member of the Crosby Model Boat Club cleared half the lake of slime which was back breaking work as both of us are not spring chickens.

It was finished on the following weekend by the rest of the boat club members.

As this boat club goes way back years it is up to us to clean the lake of rubbish at the weekend before we can sail our models.

This lake has always been for sailing model boats as the sides of the pond are straight so people can launch there boats.

It was never classed as duck pond, for bird ponds have sloping sides so they get in and out of the water.

I think Sefton Council should have a look at giving the boat club a proper club house as they have at the Southport Boat Club, as the space we have is smaller than a prison cell.

If there are five members in the room it is full.

To end with they should put the duck house back in this Victorian boating pond, as after a few months it’s an eyesore and it falls apart.

New members are welcome to come along at 10am on Sundays.

They will be most welcome.

Old and young boys and girls will be welcome so we can get the Crosby Model Boat Club back up to the great club it once was.

MP says more mental health support for veterans ‘would be best tribute to Moss Side Hospital’ Report by Champion Reporter MP Bill Esterson praised the work of Maghull's former Moss Side hospital in an Armistice debate in Parliament.

The Sefton Central MP told the House of Commons that the hospital, which is now part of Ashworth high-security psychiatric unit, pioneered the treatment of shell shock and laid the foundations for modern understanding of psychology and psychiatry.

He said in the debate: “The hospital at Moss Side, Maghull, in my constituency is now part of the Ashworth high-security psychiatric hospital, but in World War One, Moss Side hospital pioneered the treatment of shell shock.

“The work there paved the way for much of our understanding of post-traumatic stress disorder, and for modern mental health practice and medicine.

“At the time, the British Medical Journal described the treatment at Moss Side, which is recognisable today, as ‘suggestion, persuasion, therapeutic conversations, reeducation. The physician masters the patients, gains his confidence and analyses his troubles and morbid ideas and sets his mind at rest’.

“This was the forerunner of both cognitive behavioural therapy and EMDR, which, for those of us who had not come across it before, is eye movement desensitisation and reprocessing. We can trace their origins straight back to the work done 100 or so years ago at Moss Side.”

Mr Esterson recounted the haunting story of soldier Jimmy Smith, who was shot for cowardice - by one of his closest friends -

MP Bill Esterson speaking in the Armistice debate in Parliament.

during the war. He said: “At the same time that treatment was starting at Maghull, soldiers who were ill were being executed.

“Arbitrary decisions were taken about whether a man was suffering from shellshock and should be sent for treatment, or should be deemed a coward, convicted and sentenced to death.

“There is no adequate explanation for the gross injustice suffered by those labelled cowards and shot at dawn in world war one.

“Take the case of Private Jimmy Smith of the Liverpool Pals. Jimmy survived Gallipoli. He was decorated at the Somme, where he was seriously injured, but he was forced to return to duty on the frontline, despite clearly suffering from shellshock.

“He was found guilty at court martial

after going absent without leave, and sentenced to death by firing squad. The officer in charge ordered Jimmy’s friend to fire the fatal shot after Jimmy was only wounded by the firing squad, most of whom deliberately missed because they did not agree with the sentence.

They knew Jimmy was not a man lacking in moral fibre.

“Three hundred and six men were shot for cowardice, and he spoke of his role in achieving the pardon of those 306. I am very pleased that he did so, and that the Labour government gave that recognition to those men.

“The military cemetery at Kemmel Chateau, where Jimmy is buried, has the inscription, “Gone but not forgotten”.

“How appropriate for him and for all the 306.

“Today, veterans are still suffering. In my constituency we have a fantastic support group, Veterans in Sefton, who counsel other veterans. The stigma, and the lack of parity of resource and esteem with physical health, in the military and beyond, are the reality today.

“It would be a fitting mark of respect to those who came home bearing the psychological scars of World War One. “It would be right, too, for those who were shot at dawn; and it would be a tribute to those pioneers at Maghull for their groundbreaking work if we were to make good today on the shortfall in mental health support for veterans, and for everyone else.”

Following a collaboration between Maghull Town Council and local historians, a new memorial to the hospital is soon to be unveiled at Maghull North Station.

MP renews calls for government to act on leasehold ‘scam’

Home owners being ‘ripped off’ by extortionate fees to buy freehold

Our motorised rise and recline armchairs and beds are eligible for 20% VAT RELIEF

Report by Tom Martin BOOTLE MP Peter Dowd has renewed his calls for the government to act on the sale of leasehold houses – labelling it a “scam” and a “rip-off.”

Thousands of new homes across Merseyside, have been bought in recent years on leasehold terms rather than freehold.

The difference is that those who sign up for leasehold contracts feel “trapped” because they don't own the property and have to pay extortionate fees to buy the freehold rights.

They are then forced to pay escalating ‘ground rent’ as well as service charges to the property freeholder, described by some as a “faceless third party company.”

The leasehold contracts also force locals to pay fees for permission to make basic alterations, such as changing the carpet or minor extension work.

The Champion has reported how a number of new-build housing estates built by housing firm Bellway have been sold as leaseholds in Formby and south Sefton.

MP Dowd said: “Hard working families are sick to death of being ripped off.

“The government needs to get a grip of this before it destabilises the housing market.”

Many locals were unhappy that they didn’t get to choose their own solicitor, instead going with a firm advised by the housing provider, and the consequences of a leasehold were never explained properly.

A recent national survey suggests almost six in ten

From £700 Ex VAT

Bootle MP Peter Dowd

leaseholders didn’t understand what being a leaseholder meant until they had already purchased the property, and more than nine in ten leaseholders regret buying a leasehold property.

In the House of Commons last week, Labour’s Shadow Housing Secretary, John Healey MP, challenged Government ministers to set up an inquiry.

He said: “Leaseholders find they’ve bought their home but still don’t own it, and many feel ripped off by unfair leasehold contracts.

“This is a national scandal but the government’s action to date has been too weak, too slow and has overlooked the plight of existing leaseholders.

“Ministers must act to back an inquiry into this systematic leasehold mis-selling, as with other misselling scandals like pensions, endowment mortgages and PPI.” While Scotland has abolished leaseholds, there are more than four million people in England, with lease agreements.

Children need to know the consequences of their actions LIKE everyone else I am horrified by the increase in knife crime - and there is no easy answer to the problem.

It seems to me one factor that has been overlooked, perhaps because changing values in our society make it seem simply out of date, is the fact that since the days of my childhood and teenage years, young people (it now seems to have been extended to anyone under 30) have entered a society which seemingly purposefully gives them the idea that they can do almost exactly what they like without experiencing much come-back.

Yes, I know that what I am about to suggest will be deeply unpopular with many ‘modern’ parents, children and political pundits, but it seems to me that youngsters these days have no conception that actions have consequences for themselves that are not always pleasant.

But as a child I felt the relatively minor pain on my backside of my dad’s hand - and the odd clip over the ear hole too if I transgressed.

And at school my punishments ranged from ‘lines’ to detention (which in those days didn’t need my parents’ permission), a ruler across my hand or a slipper applied to my sore posterior.

I was never caned - and that was because I had learned from earlier, ‘softer ’ punishments that breaking school rules resulted in rather unpleasant consequences,

and I had the sense never to push things that little bit too far.

Out of school the local bobby was also known on occasion to punish minor indiscretions with a swift swipe at one’s ear.

And do you know what the result of all this ‘violence’ was?

It was NOT that I grew up to hate my dad, or the teachers, or the police - and neither did I become a bully myself as psychologists would have us believe.

What it did was not necessarily to prevent me ever from being naughty, but to make me consider more carefully the results of my actions, and indeed their effect on others.

As a matter of fact, my dad became my best friend once I had reached full adulthood which, incidentally, was long before I reached the grand old age of 30! And I also grew to respect authority and to consider why one should obey (in general) rules and laws.

With regard to knife crime, the police have severely curtailed ‘stop and search’ operations which I would have thought

could make a real difference to the number of knives on the street - particularly if there was a genuinely severe punishment attached.

And since, apparently, a number of knifings occur on the way home from school, would it really be such an infringement on ‘personal liberty ’ to carry out some spot checks for the carrying of knives to be made at the school gate?

I know I would rather have a child of mine arrive home annoyed because he or she had been frisked than for my son or daughter never arriving home again at all.

Perhaps the most controversial of all is the attitude of parents.

I have even heard stories of mothers asking if their child had remembered to take his knife as he went out!

Now I doubt if many parents would do such a thing - but again, how many make sure that said child is NOT going out armed?

But too often all we hear are ‘reasons’ such as cuts in police numbers, children’s services, youth centres etc.

All of which are important.

But at the end of the day, surely the best way to ensure our young people are not going out tooled up for a knife fight is to teach them from a very early age what is right and what is wrong and too that for any crime there are personal consequences that WILL be applied.

Plaza Cinema variety shows raise £2,000 for Alzheimer’s Society A MUSIC lover from Crosby who organises charity variety shows at the Plaza Cinema has so far raised more than £2,000 since April.

Julie Lawson, who has held a number of the popular entertainment shows at the Waterloo cinema over the past seven months, has now donated the money to the Alzheimer's Society.

She has been inspired to raise money for this particular cause after both her parents passed away after battling the illness.

The next event will be held on January 7, this time with money going towards the Cotton Street Homeless Shelter in Liverpool.

There will be six acts performing on the

day, including Asa Murphy and James Franklyn, and they will all perform without a fee to boost funds for the cause.

Tickets cost £10 and can be bought by calling Julie on 07723 382 553.

Doors open at 12.45pm for a 1.30pm start and the show ends at around 4pm.

Meanwhile, on Monday, November 12 a show organised by Julie was attended by the Mayor and Mayoress of Sefton and a bucket collection was held to help them organise a children's event.

The Mayor's Sefton's Children’s Trust helps provide activities for children and the bucket collection raised £500, with £250 of this amount donated by local couple Ron and Suzy Orr.

Play was a moving look at Alzheimer’s

English National ballet's Swan Lake is coming to the Liverpool Empire

L to R Ruth Ollman as Lydia and Sharon Small as Alice in Still Alice. Picture by Geraint Lewis

Review by Henry James THE Leeds Playhouse adaptation of Still Alice was staged last week at the Liverpool Playhouse.

The work is taken from the 2007 debut novel of Lisa Genova, which was made into the 2014 film starring Julianne Moore.

The play follows the life of Alice, a 50 year old professor of linguistics at Harvard University who is diagnosed with early-onset Alzheimer’s disease.

Alice was played by Sharon Small who went to see the doctor after she started to forget what she had been doing. She thought at first that the forgetfulness may be early signs of the menopause, but this was not the case.

Small was able to portray the panic her character was feeling as her mind deteriorates. Eva Pope played Alice’s thoughts or inner self. This was a good

way to show audiences what Alice was thinking.

Alice’s family had difficulty in coming to terms with Alice’s condition. There was a poignant scene where Alice continually asked her daughter, Lydia (Ruth Ollman) the same question about the show she was appearing in.

Her daughter and her son, Thomas (Mark Armstrong) then discussed the best way to help their mum.

Alice’s husband John (Martin Marquez) found it difficult at first to accept Alice has Alzheimer’s, but was more supportive towards the end of the play.

The work also highlighted the distress people with Alzheimer ’s can experience. In the show, Alice had forgotten that one of her family members had died, and when she was told they are dead, she reacted as though she was hearing for the first time.

This was a moving look at how someone’s life changes after being diagnosed with Alzheimer’s.

I’VE JUST got back from three days of exploring the national classic car show – where one question seemed to be asked more than any other. What’s it like driving a Reliant Robin?

Regular readers might remember earlier this year I snapped one up for £600 - and promptly discovered that virtually all of it was broken. It’s taken several months of frustrating repairs to get the little threewheeler up and running again, but now that it’s through the MOT, I can finally reveal the answer.

Or rather, I was about to, but then the radiator decided to drop all of its coolant across a busy dual carriageway, prompting a tailbetween-the-legs phone call to the fourth emergency service and a lengthy roadside repair.

Then it needed a boxful of bits and a morning with a timing gun because it was richer than Donald Trump and coughing like Theresa May at a political party conference.

So you probably get already that the Reliant Robin is a proper classic car – the sort that people enjoy tinkering with on a Sunday morning. Or in a layby at rush hour.

But then I – by which I mean the talented

01695 572029

David's Reliant Robin might not be the last word in reliability but it's fun to drive

folk at the Reliant Owners’ Club – finally got my £600 three-wheeler to behave like a car and I could finally go for a proper drive. I’m now happy to report that it’s addictively good fun to buzz around in. Anyone who’s seen a certain episode of Top Gear would be forgiven for thinking that every corner is a rollover-in-waiting but it just isn’t true.

A Robin that’s set up properly will happily flick through roundabouts or through even quite tight bends perfectly happy and is really only going to throw you into a hedge if you really muck about it. In fact, the bigger problem is Britain’s proliferation of potholes.

You end up hitting them a third more of them than you would in a normal car, and if it’s the front wheel that hits one, then the

ride’s particularly unpleasant. So you end up driving it constantly thinking about where the middle of the car is, which is strangely rewarding because it encourages you to really think about your driving to get the best out of it.

But it’s worth it because the steering – which only has the one wheel to control, of course – is light and nimble, the gearchange is wonderfully direct and the engine loves to rev. In fact, it’ll comfortably overtake things on a motorway at seventy, even if the 850cc lump next to your left knee is doing about a million RPM. It might be noisy and have a habit of breaking down, but it’s a car that’s overflowing with character. Which makes it more than alright in my book.

Bucks crash out of League Cup after embarrassing display Cheadle Town 5 Bootle 0 BOOTLE crashed out of the Macron Challenge Cup as Cheadle Town hit them for five in their second round tie, writes Connor O’Neill.

The Bucks were simply hopeless against their North West Counties Division One South counterparts.

It was hard to believe this was a side who had just collected five straight victories as the Bucks produced an embarrassing display.

The visitors dominated the match with a fine attacking display.

Town opened the scoring on 19 minutes from a Joseph Nield penalty after Ste Hoy brought down Ryan Rogers.

The second came just before the half-hour mark when a loose Bootle pass was pounced on and Matt German sent Webb in the clear before the forward swept the ball into the path of Ben Brooks who finished past the onrushing Jones.

Bootle's best passage of play in the first half brought their best opening. Liam Loughlin and Ben Jago combined before the latter swept the ball out to Michael Ordish on the left. After escaping the challenge of Nield, Ordish's low cross was then dummied into the path of the Ste Jones, but the inform forward fired over from 18-yards out.

The miss proved costly as

Cheadle added a third on the stroke of half-time when man of the match Rogers intercepted Jago's pass before driving down the right. The winger then released Webb who raced clear before finishing into the bottom corner of the net.

Eleven minutes into the second half and Webb notched his second goal when once again the Bucks failed to clear with the Cheadle number 9 pouncing on a loose ball before firing into the bottom corner.

Bootle’s day soon turned into a nightmare when they were reduced to nine men.

First, Joel Powell saw red for a late lunge on Nathan Ntalu - then in the immediate aftermath, Michael Ordish picked up a second yellow card for dissent.

Four became five eleven minutes from time when Connor Naughton and Nield combined down the left before the latter pulled the ball back to Ntalu on the edge of the box.

The substitute then let fly with a firm effort that was pushed away

by Jones, but fellow substitute Rhys Clooney was on hand to hammer the rebound home.

Despite being down to nine men, the Bucks created the game’s final chance when Ste Hoy crossed for the unmarked Cox. But the newly crowned Hallmark Security League player of the month for October saw his effort blocked by the outstretched legs of the onrushing Whiting.

Boyle on target again as Maghull stay top Maghull 4 Ashville 1 MAGHULL cruised to a comfortable victory over visitors Ashville on Saturday to keep them at the top of the First Division of the West Cheshire League.

It was a comfortable victory for the hosts and in fact the scoreline flattered their opponents who could have well returned to their Wallasey base nursing a far more emphatic scoreline had Maghull converted their second half superiority into goals.

It was prolific striker Michael Boyle who was again on target as he bagged a brace to take his tally to eight in the last four games and his

total to eleven for the season.

Skipper Elliot Toner netted the first goal with an own goal completing the scoring.

Manager Joe Burns had been presented with his West Cheshire League’s manager of the month award for October and he had to be pleased in his team's much improved performance after their disappointing showing the previous week when they were held to a home draw by Ellesmere Port.

Next Saturday Maghull travel to Richmond Raith Rovers for a First Division contest which kicks off at 3pm whilst at Old Hall Field Maghull Reserves entertain Mossley Hill Reserves for a Second Division game which kicks off at 2pm.

Firwood Waterloo return to action with home match against Burnage FIRWOOD Waterloo return to action on Saturday after a week’s break when they host Burnage.

Waterloo are currently in sixth

place in the National League North One West table, eight points behind leaders Carlisle after nine games.

James Joyce scored with a long range effort which dipped over the goalkeeper and into the net. Picture by John Rudkin.

Wonder goal for Joyce as Marine end home goal drought Marine 1 Gainsborough Trinity 1 A SUPER strike from James Joyce ended the Mariners’ home goal drought in style on Saturday but a goal 15 minutes from full time saw visitors Gainsborough Trinity take a share of the spoils in a hard fought affair.

The Mariners started strong in the first half but were wasteful with the opportunities they had – something they would rue later on.

One of the best chances of the first half fell to Finlay Sinclair-Smith who was put in by a bit of neat footwork by Danny Mitchley but Marcus Dewhurst saved well.

Mitchley had a chance of his own just before half-time following a sweet cross by Craig Carney but Dewhurst did well to save the volleyed effort.

As has so often happened since the introduction of man-

ager Neil Young, Marine refused to allow the opposition to play their brand of football and strongly influenced play.

On the the hour mark Marine took the lead thanks to a fantastic effort by Joycce.

The ball had fallen loose on the edge of the penalty area and Joyce controlled the ball well before lifteing the ball over Dewhurst and into the top-right corner of the neat.

Gainsborough got their equaliser in the 76th minute as Simon Russell was able to find the back of the net with a rebounded effort, completely catching Martin Fearon off guard.

The game strongly featured a midfield battle which the visitors often had the better of, but Steve Irwin shone for the home team throughout the full 90 minutes.

The Mariners travel to Scarborough Athletic on Saturday.

Litherland Remyca 2 Padiham 2

Fearon leaves Mariners

TWO late goals saved the day for Remyca as they gained a home draw against a good Padiham side.

The opposition started the game well with a high intensity and it was no surprise they took the lead after 20 minutes when Liam ONeill netted from close range.

On 78 minutes, Padiham added a second goal through Lee Knight and will have thought the points were safe.

But Dylan Scott pulled a goal back two minutes later and Liam Morris equalised on his debut on 85 minutes.

It was all the home team now as they went after a winner. To all present it looked as if Colin Quirks late effort was goalbound only for the Padiham keeper to produce a brilliant save and leave honours even.

MARINE officials have confirmed that goalkeeper Martin Fearon has left the club.

The Accrington based player informed manager Neil Young at the weekend that due to travelling and work/ home life he is unable to continue at the MTA. Martin made his debut in October 2017 and played 59 times for the Mariners.

Remyca hit two late goals to rescue point
