INSIDE THIS WEEK:

Bloomin’ cheek!

2,000 glorious flower bulbs painstakingly planted by Good Samaritan Chris are cut down in their prime by council workers A GOOD Samaritan planted more than 2,000 bulbs along a barren roadside - only for the flowers to be mown down by the council at the height of their beauty.

Chris Truett spent £200 on the tulips and daffodils which he dug into the empty grass strip beside Rotten Row - one of the most iconic streets in Southport It took the 51-year-old eight weekends to plant the flowers on the mile-long verge, and they bloomed early this month.

But, while they were in full flourish, Sefton Council workers mowed them down as they cut the grass, leaving Chris ‘gobsmacked’.

LEAVING SEFTON WOULD BE ‘DISASTER FOR TOWN’ l Council leaders Maher and Moran

Report by Tom Martin A JOINT move by the MPs of Southport and neighbouring West Lancashire to take Southport out of Sefton has been described as potentially ‘disastrous’ for the town.

Reacting to last week’s news in the Champion that Southport’s Tory MP Damien Moore and West Lancs Labour member Rosie Cooper had joined forces to write a letter to the government urging the separation, the leaders of Sefton Council and West Lancs Borough Council, condemned the proposal.

Sefton Council Leader Cllr Ian Maher, said: “Damien Moore and Rosie Cooper may well want to raise this again for their own reasons, despite it being rejected out of hand time and again for good reason.

“My own view on this is led by the question ‘what is best for Southport residents?’

And my conclusion is that this suggestion

would potentially be disastrous for the people of Southport.”

West Lancashire BC Leader, Cllr Ian Moran, said the West Lancs administration has ‘no interest’ in merging with Southport. “We do not see it as remotely financially viable. We are instead already pursuing a county devolution deal with our Lancashire partners which includes Chorley and South Ribble.”

‘Council mismanagement’

It was reported last week how Mr Moore and Ms Cooper were unlikely allies after they signed a joint letter to Michael Gove, Secretary of State for Levelling Up, Housing and Communities, asking for measures to be put in place to “change the local catchment area” which would mean

Reaction from residents to ‘leave’ proposal - p7

Council leaders of Sefton and West Lancs condemn proposals

by MPs Moore and Cooper to take resort out of Merseyside and into Lancashire

Southport leaving Sefton to be in the same local authority area as West Lancs.

Mr Moore told the Champion he had a “very brief face-to-face chat” with Michael Gove last week about the plans and they will schedule a meeting for more detailed talks at a later date.

MP Moore claims the reason for the joint proposal is because of “council mismanagement” in Sefton, while MP Cooper believes the addition of Southport in Lancashire would give Ormskirk and Skelmersdale a “stronger voice.”

The plans have sparked a huge reaction from both members of the public and local councillors.

Labour Cllrs Greg Myers and Mhairi Doyle, who both represent the Norwood ward in Southport, have hit out at MP Moore and his stance over Ainsdale.

According to the existing plans by The Boundary Commission, Ainsdale is set to leave Southport and become part of the Sefton Central constituency.

PRINCE Edward has officially opened Merseyside Police’s new £48million headquarters.

The Earl of Wessex visited Rose Hill on Thursday, March 10, where he was welcomed by a guard of honour including mounted police officers, the Merseyside Police band, and a group of ‘Mini Police’ officers.

The state-of-the-art building, in Everton, brings more than 1,100 officers and police staff together under one roof.

The prince met officers and staff to find out about how the cuttingedge police centre will save the force £250,000 a year on its running costs, and unveiled a plaque.

Rising cases of Covid and norovirus puts pressure on hospitals Report by Tom Martin HEALTH bosses at Southport and Ormskirk hospitals are urging people to “stay away” if they have Covid symptoms or upset stomachs due to “very high levels of attendance” at A&E. A spike in cases of Covid and the norovirus has left staff struggling to cope with so many people in A&E. While those patients with Covid are usually presenting with other conditions, the need to isolate them is putting additional pressure on managing beds.

Andrew Chalmers, Deputy Director of Infection Prevention and Control, said: “We are urging people not to visit or attend hospital if they have People with Covid, or symptoms of nausea, diarrhoea or symptons vomiting. Please call ahead for advice is you urged to stay already have an away from appointment. People who make their own A&E sites

In an emergency, you should always call 999.

Where you need urgent care or medical advice, or are not sure where to go, contact NHS111 first. They will direct you to the most appropriate service. There is also lots of advice available on the NHS website for self-care options.

Average speed check cameras ‘have made bypass much safer’ INSTALLING average speed cameras on the A565 Tarleton bypass has led to a huge reduction in speeding offences on the road, say police.

In a two year period after average speed cameras were introduced along the A565 Southport New Road in August 2017, there was a reduction of 62.38% in detected offences.

This stretch of road was included among eight routes across Lancashire installed with average speed cameras between March 2017 and August 2018, which police have said have been proven to reduce both collisions and casualties.

They added that since the average speed cameras were introduced, speeding offences have reduced by more than half.

The cameras can be found on the A565 Southport New Road (Tarleton Bypass) between the B5246 at Mere Brow and the Gravel Lane roundabout at Banks.

Police said analysis of the impact the average speed cameras have had in the two years since they went live demonstrates that they have been successful in reducing the number of speeding vehicles on all eight routes.

Superintendent Damian Darcy, of Lancashire Police’s Tactical Operations, said: “Slower speeds mean safer roads for all road users, residents and communities.

“We thank those drivers who obey the limits.

“We are pleased to see that the number of both collisions and offences detected on

these roads has reduced so significantly.

“Those who continue to choose to speed on Lancashire’s roads will not be tolerated and offenders will continue to be dealt with appropriately.”

Average speed cameras are a “visible and effective deterrent” to speeding drivers. They are part of a range of safety camera technologies used by the Lancashire Road Safety Partnership, the aim of which is to reduce the numbers of people killed or seriously injured on Lancashire’s roads.

Due to the success of the installations in reducing both offences and collisions, projects are in place to install five further average speed camera routes in Lancashire around the county.

Next of kin appeal for Southport man AN appeal has been made for information to trace the next of kin of a 67year-old man in Southport.

Ian Glennie passed away at Southport hospital on Thursday, March 17.

There are no suspicious circumstances surrounding his death.

It is believed that Ian may have family residing in the Formby area and in the Newborough area of Scotland.

Anyone who can help the Coroner identify or trace any potential next of kin can call 0151 934 2412 or email HMCoroner@liverpool.gov.uk.

Marine Lake Events Centre planning application could be submitted ‘early summer’ Report by Tom Martin A PLANNING application to build the state-of-the-art Marine Lake Events Centre in Southport could be submitted in early summer.

Sefton Council revealed a public consultation is planned for May, ahead of a planning application to be lodged soon after.

It was announced earlier this year that the Council has appointed an experienced team, including leading architecture firm AFL Architects, to work on plans that it hoped will provide Southport with a first class events space and a new visitor attraction at the Marine Lake.

The plans will provide a theatre space, conference and exhibition centre able to accommodate a range of events, and cafe/restaurant on the site of the existing Southport Theatre and Conference Centre.

A water and light show is proposed to be installed on the Marine Lake.

The project is hoped to bring thousands of visitors to the town each year and provide a boost to the local economy.

The Marine Lake Events Centre and Marine Lake water and light show forms part of the Southport Town Deal which secured £37.5 million funding in 2021. The project has also secured further support from Liverpool City Region Combined Authority.

Cllr Ian Maher, Leader of Sefton Council, said: “We are really excited that the project

Dan’s mountain challenge to help animal sanctuary A PERSONAL trainer from Southport will take on the challenge of his life in a 20-day expedition in Nepal – and he wants to do it to raise money for a local animal charity.

Dan Hutchinson, who works at Marshside Health Club, wants to raise as much money as possible for Woodlands Animal Sanctuary.

The challenge will see Dan climb to a base camp at Mount Everest, which is 5,364metres high and taller than most other mountains.

He will then walk to Lobuche East Peak, which he will climb, taking him up to the dizzying heights of 6119m above sea level.

He will be joining a group of climbers who will be trekking under the experienced eyes of the Elite Exped team.

The whole expedition, which will take place in October, is planned to take 20 days, including pre-climb training days, rest days and acclimatization days.

A spokesperson for Woodlands Animal Sanctuary said: “We are incredibly grateful and proud. Dan is a superb personal trainer who is known to the team here and we are in awe that he is doing this challenge in the first place, but to do it as a sponsored event to raise money for us is truly incredible.”

An artist's impression of the proposed Marine Lake Events Centre

is starting to take shape. During the consultation on the Town Deal in 2020, the need for investment in the current theatre was something lots of people wanted to see and the ‘big idea’ to animate the Marine Lake was widely welcomed.

“There are a number of aspects of the project that need careful consideration, so we have appointed an expert team to start having conversations and to help design and deliver this important project for Southport.

“We plan to undertake a wider public con-

sultation on the plans in May, providing an opportunity for everyone to see and comment on the plans before a planning application is submitted.”

Work on the Marine Lake Events Centre follows the success of Southport Market, which opened its doors last year and has helped to kickstart regeneration of the Market Quarter.

The council has also recently consulted on plans to improve access to the eastern side of Southport and public realm improvements for the town centre.

Council needs to be ‘more transparent’ on plans to improve children’s services SEFTON Council should be more transparent on its work to improve Children’s Social Services following a damning report last year, according to a local Councillor.

Dukes Ward Councillor, Mike Prendergast, wants more information to be made public on the changes being made by the local authority.

The council said last year that they were taking steps to address Ofsted’s recommendations, which included the creation of a new ‘Improvement Board’.

Cllr Prendergast said: “It’s now almost a year since a highly critical report was delivered by the inspectorate.

“Members of the Overview and Scrutiny Committee at Sefton Council, of which I am one, receive minimal information on the workings of this Board.

Minutes are not available and quite frankly, the decisions taken by

the Board are not subject to scrutiny. As far as I’m aware no member of the Overview and Scrutiny has ever been to one of these meetings.

“The most vulnerable children in the borough need a working department and the people of Sefton need to know what is going on.

“I would urge Sefton Council to simply upload the minutes of Improvement Board meetings to their website and end the secrecy.”

Sefton Council responded: “At the meeting of the Council’s Overview and Scrutiny Committee (Children’s Services and Safeguarding) on Tuesday, March 15, it was agreed that the executive director of Children’s Social Care and Education be requested to submit a full report on the Improvement Board in regard to the Children’s Social Care Improvement Journey to the

next scheduled meeting of the Committee on 5 July 2022, along with regular reports on the

matter be submitted to the Committee thereafter during 2022 and 2023.”

RECYCLING centres in Sefton now have emergency defibrillators on site.

The life-saving pieces of medical equipment have been installed at sites in Southport, Formby, Maghull and Bootle, as well as the other 12 facilities in Merseyside run by Veolia, on behalf of Merseyside Recycling and Waste Authority.

With an annual footfall of more than 1.5 million visitors, the sites will be set up to save lives should they ever be needed.

The cost of the defibrillators has been shared equally by Veolia and Merseyside Recycling and Waste Authority (MRWA).

All of the defibrillators are fully automatic – with visual and voice prompts to guide the rescuer through the entire resuscitation process, including CPR which is a key link in the chain of survival.

The equipment analyses heart rhythm and automatically delivers a shock if needed.

Jeff Sears, director of Veolia Merseyside and Halton, said:

“Our sites are visited by more than 1.5 million residents every year, so having this vital equipment available to use in an emergency situation could help to save a life.”

Liverpool Councillor Tony Concepcion, chairperson of MRWA, said: “We have thousands of visitors to our Centres every week, so while we hope the defibrillators never have to be used it’s reassuring to know that they are there and can be accessed by staff quickly in an emergency.”

Man charged after raid at town centre jewellers A MAN has been charged after a raid at Rebecca’s Jewellers on Lord Street last week.

The incident happened at around 9pm on Monday when males on motorbikes forced entry into the building before stealing a large quantity of jewellery.

“The investigation is in its early stages - if you were in the area and saw or heard anything, please let us know.

“The centres also accept lesser-known items such as food and drink cartons, clothes, hard plastics and electrical items. The lighter summer nights mean we can open for longer.”

Council cutbacks given a whole new meaning...

Green Sefton service mows down 2,000 flowers in full bloom

by Victoria Williams COMMUNITY-spirited Chris Truett was delighted when his painstaking planting of 2,000 flower bulbs alongside a barren roadside came out in full spring bloom.

But his joy was to be shortlived - for just days after the tulips and daffodils appeared, they were mown down by heavy-handed council workers.

Chris, a joiner, had spent his weekends - and his own money - planting the bulbs on a milelong strip of land on Rotten Row. The devastated 51 year old said: “I was heartbroken when I realised what had happened.

“It’s pure madness at a time when the council don’t have the resources to plant bulbs themselves.

“They were in full bloom. All the council had to do was to wait a few weeks, until the flowers had faded away. The grass wasn’t even that long.

“I am absolutely gutted that

Volunteer Chris ‘gutted’ after spending his weekends planting tulip and daffodil bulbs to help brighten up Rotten Row verge all my hard work, planting thousands of bulbs out of my own money, has been for nothing.

“None of the people who live locally can believe it.”

Rotten Row, which runs adjacent to Victoria Park, is famous for its floral displays but council cutbacks have meant volunteers are now relied on to tend the flowers.

The Friends of Rotten Row maintain the beds on one side of the road, but the verge opposite was left empty until Chris undertook his mammoth task.

It took him eight weekends across October in 2020 and October 2021 to plant 2,200 flowers.

He bought a total of 30 bags of daffodil bulbs at £5 each and spent a further £40 on a

bulb digger. He also forked out for 200 tulips.

Chris says his flowers were left alone in spring 2021, after he had a word with council workers. He assumed the same would happen this year, so he was dismayed when he turned up to do some litter picking on Saturday, March 19 to learn that they had been razed.

Chris added: “Other councils in the UK are planting flowers.

Sefton Council is cutting them down. This is an act of vandalism and a pure smack in the face for me, as a volunteer who has spent my own time and money, trying to make the town look nice.

“Southport used to be absolutely beautiful. Over the years, it’s really gone down hill as the council has invested less and less money.

“Rotten Row used to look lovely. There were roses all along the verge, but the council couldn’t afford to maintain them, so they had to go.

“I live here and I want people to continue to visit.

“That's why I spend time picking litter and planting flowers. I just want to brighten up Southport.”

A spokesperson for Sefton Council’s Green Sefton service said: “Firstly, we would like to say we fully appreciate Mr Truett’s expenditure, time and effort and can understand his disappointment and that if he would like to contact us, we will arrange a reimbursement for the bulbs planted.

“We always welcome residents interested in volunteering but ask them to get in touch so we can work together to identify areas where flowers can and cannot be planted and to avoid unforeseen events like this.

“We hope that in the future we can work with Mr Truett to enhance the area.”

Dedicated neighbourhood policing team is active in the resort... and making arrests, stress local officers SOUTHPORT’S neighbourhood police team say they want to “dispel the myth” that there are a lack of bobbies on the beat in the town.

They say officers have recently made a number of key arrests in the resort and they were ‘first on the scene’ when Rebecca’s Jewellers was raided last week making an arrest close to the scene.

The Champion reported how police arrived quickly at the Lord Street raid after they were alerted by a member of the public, allowing them to arrest one of the suspects.

The following day, local officers arrested a 44-year-old man on Lord Street for breach of a sex offence order and a 32-year-old man on Cable Street for burglary.

A Facebook post by Sefton Police said: “Please help us dispel the myths that ‘Southport Police Station is closed’ or that ‘all police in Southport come from Liverpool’.

“Neighbourhood Officers based at Southport Police Station, on patrol in town, were first on the scene of the burglary (at Rebecca’s Jewellers) and were responsible for the arrest of one of the suspects.

Report by Tom Martin “Southport Neighbourhood Officers also arrested a 44-yearold man on Lord Street for breach of a sex offender order.

“At custody the man was found in possession of a stolen mobile phone, so he was subsequently arrested on suspicion of theft of the phone as well.

“Shortly after this, Southport Neighbourhood officers arrested a 32-year-old man on Cable Street, wanted on suspicion of burglary and theft of a town centre shop.

“These arrests were possible

A police officer on the beat in Chapel Street

because we have a dedicated Neighbourhood Policing Team based at Southport Police Station, with strong local knowledge of the area and of local offenders, and who don’t work 9am-5pm, as some would have you believe.”

Second arrest after cemetery stabbing A SECOND man has been charged in connection to a stabbing at a cemetery in Formby earlier this month.

A 16-year-old was attacked at around 4.55pm on Tuesday, March 8 at the cemetery of Our Lady of Compassion Formby Parish, on School Lane. The victim was taken to hospital for treatment and he has since been discharged.

Micky Teany, 18, of Hawthorne Drive, Kirkby was arrested and charged with causing grievous bodily harm with intent, robbery, possession of a bladed article in public and theft of a pedal cycle. Another man, Sonny Collins, 18, of Maple Close, Seaforth had previously been charged with robbery, possession of a bladed article and possession of a Class B drug (cannabis).

Enquiries into the incident are ongoing.

Lib Dems favour splitting Sefton... but remaining within Merseyside ONE of the potential impacts of Southport leaving Sefton would be how it affects free bus and train travel for the town’s older community.

Dukes Ward Cllr John Pugh, who is Leader of Sefton’s Liberal Democrat Party, has called for clarity on the issue as the proposal could spell the end of Southport residents benefiting from the ‘Merseytravel Over 60s’ pass.

That’s because the pass allows people free bus, train and ferry travel for anyone aged over 60 - but they must live in Merseyside.

If Southport is moved into Lancashire, locals would likely be forced to switch to a Lancashire NoWcard, which mirrors the National Bus Pass scheme, but it has an age limit of 65 and doesn’t cover Merseyrail trains.

It has certainly been cause for concern for many Southport residents, who have contacted the Champion over the past week.

Cllr Pugh said: “The latest proposals from the local MPs to put Southport under Lancashire has to deal head on with the bus pass issue. That’s why the Liberal Democrats favour splitting Sefton but remaining in Merseyside, avoiding any change in pensioner entitlement.

“The Lancashire option put forward by Damien and Rosie clearly risks annoying a lot of SouthDukes Ward Cllr port pensioners and John Pugh soon-to-be pensioners.

“The MPs must think that the government are prepared to accept a smaller Sefton. That logically follows from the ‘Southport to Lancashire’ proposal. So why not simply split Sefton and stay in the Merseyside travel area?

“That way Southport councillors get a bigger voice too in a smaller authority. That won’t happen in Lancashire which at 1.2 million is over four times bigger than Sefton in terms of population and stretches out from Lancaster to Burnley.”

Cllr Pugh has launched his own online survey on the Southport out of Sefton debate and he is asking Southport residents to take part: https://forms.gle/z7pxGtMAKDwHXX9dA

Commenting on the Champion’s Facebook page, another person said: “Be careful what MP Damien Moore

However, MP Moore said last week that he wants to take Ainsdale with him into Lancashire.

In a joint statement, Cllr Myers said: “Here we have a group who were quite happy to see the back of Ainsdale, see it just carved off from the rest of Southport simply because it suited their narrow political interest.

“Now after uproar over it, they’ve apparently suddenly U-turned and decided ‘no we’d better keep Ainsdale but let’s try to carve Southport off from the rest of Merseyside instead’.

“Yet again, down to the same narrow political interest.”

Councillor Doyle, added: “It’s just woolly-headed unworkable nonsense.

“The MP knows he’s on borrowed time here and is simply trying to shore up his position as best he can.

Sadly, he doesn’t seem to care what division he stokes up to try and achieve that.

“I’d rather see him and the Conservatives out of Southport - that’s the change we really need locally.”

Another person said: “Finally some good news. They can blame Skem for their woes then.” While one Sefton resident posted: “Southport brings Sefton down. Let them go to Lancashire. They have harped on about it for years.”

Another Champion reader commented: “I totally agree they should (move Southport out of Sefton). Proper Sefton areas will benefit from all the money that the council wasted on Southport the retirement capital.”

There were also comments from people who grew up further afield in Lancashire: “As someone brought up in Blackburn, all l can say is Southport is better staying where it is. Sefton is much, much nicer.”

Another person posted: “Need to do the opposite and move all of West Lancashire into the Liverpool City Region so things like transport are properly integrated,” while one person simply believes the MPs should ask their constituents - “it would be better if they asked the people it would affect first.”

Four-day art exhibition to fundraise for Ukraine SOUTHPORT Artists for the Ukraine will hold a four-day art exhibition to raise money for the ongoing crisis appeal.

The event takes place in the Market Hall in the town centre from Thursday, April 7 to Sunday, April 10.

A number of local artists are taking part, eager to sell their art to raise vital funds for people whose lives have been devastated by the war in Ukraine.

The event will also offer four days of entertainment for visitors, with music, poetry and performance adding to this very special occasion.

The organisers recently attended a planning meeting at Southport Market where the exhibition will be held.

The Southport Artists for The Ukraine display is being planned by a team made up of local people from various backgrounds including visual arts, theatre and performance and the leisure industry.

One of the event organisers,

local artist Tony Wynne, outlined what the event aims to achieve.

He said: “The exhibition and art sale is being held to raise desperately needed funds for the Disasters Emergency Committee which includes charities such the British Red Cross and Save The Children.

“But the event is not just an art exhibition as there will be other things happening over its four

days. Our theatre and performance director, Suzy Walker, is busy working with poets, musicians and performers to add deeper cultural layers to the event.

“We’re working hard to make the event a success so we hope that the people of Southport will support us and help us to help people, including many, many children, whose lives have been torn apart.”

Heritage week taking place at historic St Peter’s church THE historic St Peter’s Church, on Green Lane, Formby, which first opened in 1747, is currently staging a ‘Heritage Week’ as part of the church’s celebrations marking 275 years since the consecration of the current building in 1747.

The Heritage Week which started on Monday (March 28) and runs to April 2, is one of a series of events at the church this year.

Exhibitions in the church include a timeline of Formby; history of the church; the War Graves and the Somme Cross; the Formby family; the church school (Trinity St Peter’s) and uniformed organisations.

The church is open to visitors from 11am each day, with refreshments available. Entry is by donation.

Vicar, Revd Canon Anne Taylor said: “St Peter’s has been held in great affection by generations of Formby folk, and we are looking forward to welcoming people from near and far to enjoy our beautiful church.”

Volunteers wanted to help Sefton townships project A HERITAGE project is seeking volunteer researchers to help it mount an exhibition focusing on the borough’s historic townships.

Community Within Communities - Our Voices To Be Heard - is being co-ordinated by Sefton CVS and is funded by the National Lottery Heritage Fund.

Development officer, Emma Copestake, said: “Sefton is full of brilliant stories, people and places. We need volunteers to help us uncover this rich and diverse heritage.”

The Community Within Communities project aims to identify and explain Sefton’s heritage, involve more people in heritage activities and develop a resource of heritage skills for the future.

As well as the townships exhibition it is running a grants programme to help community groups fund their own heritage-related projects.

Rethink needed on contingency plan for uncollected bins, says councillor Climate activists gather in Southport following a meeting with Damien Moore

Climate activists say coal mine in Cumbria would impact on town CLIMATE activists want to block plans in West Cumbria for the UK’s first new deep coal mine in 30 years, claiming it will directly impact Southport.

Sefton Climate Action Group visited MP Damien Moore’s constituency office to voice concerns about the proposed coal mine and the damage it will do to the environment.

The decision on whether this new mine will get the go-ahead rests with the government and a decision is expected this spring.

Campaigner Stephen Hesketh, claimed: “It may seem strange that we are asking the MP for Southport to speak out in Parliament and make representations regarding a proposed mine in West Cumbria, but the emissions from the mine will affect us all and impact on sea-levels here in Southport.

“Indeed, the emissions from the end use of all the coking coal that the mine will produce over its lifetime is estimated at 220 million tonnes of CO2 equivalent, and its construction will disrupt two areas of ancient woodland.

“We met with Mr Moore to speak about local people’s concerns, as well as the concerns of many in West Cumbria.”

SEFTON Council needs to come up with a better contingency plan if a wheelie bin collection is missed, according to Birkdale Lib Dem Cllr Ian Brodie Browne.

Sometimes the council’s waste collectors will be unable to empty bins for a number of common reasons, such as obstructions in the road.

If a resident then reports the issue, they are told to leave their bins out the following day and the waste collectors will return.

However, says Cllr Browne, locals complain that this sometimes fails to happen and their bins can be left full until their next collection.

He said: “The position is of particular concern in narrow and hard to reach streets. In Birkdale, we have a number of locations where collections are missed and bins are left out

for days whilst phone calls are made to chivvy up collections.

“I do not think that this is an issue with the front line staff but rather a failure to have a contingency plan in place if something goes wrong. I have been contacted by local residents who get very frustrated by these missed collections.

“This is one of the council’s basic services and they should concentrate on getting it right.”

A spokesperson for Sefton Council said: “We would ask people refrain from reporting a missed bin until 8pm as crews may be delayed in their journey.

“We would urge everyone to park considerately on narrow streets and make it as simple as possible for crews to reach everyone and avoid delays.”

LETTERS to the Editor

NATO letter lacks logic especially for countries close to Russia’s borders I can’t agree at all with the various points made by Tom Palin in his letter about NATO, published in the Champion, March 23.

In his letter, he seems to suggest that authoritarian regimes can be good for some countries as opposed to just those in power, and cites China as an example.

He forgets the elimination of millions associated with the previous Nationalist regime immediately after the Communist takeover, the forced annexation of Tibet and subsequent bloody destruction of Tibetan culture.

This was the greatest man-made disaster in history, namely the famine that the regime caused in 1959-61 during the so-called ‘Great Leap Forward’, killing tens of millions of people, the culling of intellectuals during the same period, the Tiananmen Square massacre and the on-going genocide of the Uyghur minority and suppression of dissent, such as that recently meted out to the tennis player Peng Shuai.

Plus the probability that the

advent of democracy into the nation might actually have led to greater prosperity today through much better internal and external relationships.

The letter writer’s assertion that “the deployment of NATO forces ever closer to Russia’s borders makes no military sense” also lacks logic, especially for the countries involved.

I’m sure that, watching the horrors Russia is perpetrating in the Ukraine, the likes of Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, Poland, Slovakia, Hungary and Romania, all of whom border Russia, Belarus or the Ukraine, are very glad about the protection that NATO membership provides them, thinking that what is now happening in Ukraine could easily otherwise be happening to them too.

I speak having travelled to all of these aforementioned NATO members, having friends living in two of them, as well as to Ukraine, and a visit to lovely Lviv in July 2019.

Police should target the real speedsters I wonder when the road policing section of Merseyside Police’s Accident Prevention Unit will target the real speeding offenders around the Formby, Ainsdale and Southport areas?

Instead of targeting mums taking their children to school from 08:30 hours along Liverpool Road, Ainsdale, or on the stretch of road around Royal Birkdale, in the hope

of ticketing a motorist for the heinous crime of driving at 33mph, perhaps they ought to work on a Saturday or Sunday, or perhaps a weekday night along the Formby Bypass and Coastal Road, which resembles Silverstone or The Isle of Man at TT week.

Steven P Scott, Ainsdale

Upsetting to see trees being felled in village Thank you to the recent Champion correspondent stating the importance of trees for our environment.

On the road where I live in Birkdale, several trees have been felled by the

roadside over the recent years but have not been replaced by Sefton Council.

Sadly, this is what I have come to expect from the council.

I find this both concern-

ing and upsetting in the light of the definite and very obvious benefits and value of trees.

We should festoon Lord Street with Ukranian flags The residents of Forum Court (a retirement home for the over 65s) In Lord Street have donated almost £600 to the Ukrainian refugees appeal fund and are now proudly displaying a Ukrainian flag on the front of the premises.

The flying of the flag is by no means a political statement rather it is to show compassion for the two million of our fellow human beings who have died, been

injured or have been forced to flee their homes and country.

The residents hope that the displaying of the flag will encourage others in the vicinity to consider making a donation and/or ‘flying the flag’.

Wouldn’t it be wonderful to see Lord Street festooned with Ukrainian flags?

Alan Buck, Forum Court

Collective defence via alliance ‘best guarantee’ while democracy had failed the people of India. I am sure if the author was to take a deeper look into history he would see that Chinese autocracy with policies such as ‘The Great Leap Forward’ and ‘The Cultural Revolution’ actually led to the deaths of millions and a further retrenchment into poverty. The elimination of poverty in China only started with the embrace of global capitalism and political system was largely irrelevant.

The author should also look at the economic figures from India where World Bank-acknowledged poverty reduction programmes, plus an emerging middle class, would contradict the above statement.

The letter finally discusses the merits of collective defence and actually makes some valid points with which few people could disagree. It is a shame that he then proceeds to state that it can be difficult to determine whether NATO is peace maker or war maker.

Week 13.2022

This is the most contentious of all statements made as the people of Ukraine would definitely place Russia in the role of war maker.

The powers that be in the Kremlin as well as those NATO detractors should ask themselves why sovereign democratic countries like Ukraine wish to join NATO, why countries such as Poland and the Czech Republic have joined NATO and finally, most pertinently, why countries with a history of neutrality like Finland and Sweden are now considering joining the alliance.

Dare I suggest that it is because they can see that they are directly threatened by Russia and they see the aforementioned merits of collective defence in a defensive alliance to be the best guarantee of their and their peoples’ human rights.

It was with dismay I read that Southport was to host another drivethrough on our lovely sea front which is always much in demand and especially so over the last two years.

It made for interesting reading that this development would ‘activate an under-utilised site and that the modern aesthetics of the proposed unit will uplift the area as well as providing physical and economic development and preserve the special interest of Southport Pier to boot’!

Who would have thought a Starbucks drive-through could achieve all this!

Our council are constantly informing us that they want us all to access the town, on foot, by bike or on public transport; surely this goes against the grain - good cups of coffee can be obtained from other drive-through outlets which are in very close proximity to the proposed development.

I am sure they will be dismayed as will other cafe owners on the pier and close by the pier who have fought on through the pandemic to keep their businesses going.

Surely we should be maintaining car parking places to attract more people to venture down the pier and into our lovely town - why build more when there are perfectly good quality units already standing empty?

My most important concern is for the welfare of our beach and coastal areas.

One only has to drive along the sea front to see the impact of our takeaway, drive-through society on the amount of rubbish, plastic and disposable food waste evident on the strandlines after the winter storms do we really need more?

Last Week’s Solutions

The letter in the Champion entitled ‘Nato can be incoherent and seen as provocative’ can itself be challenged on several points not least the tired old trope that NATO is in some way responsible for the death and destruction being rained upon innocents in Ukraine.

Whilst I agree that a debate has not happened in Parliament; we are as a society able to debate and if necessary disagree with the course of action being followed by our Government - who we can remove via the ballet box. Not that this is something that the main belligerent in this affair allows.

To even consider that we are ‘extending a war’ by giving the unfortunate Ukrainians the means to defend themselves is a strange distortion.

The letter goes on to argue that autocracy has lifted hundreds of millions of people out of poverty in China

Do we really need another drive-through takeaway on the seafront?

Dear friends, We are delighted to advise that Pangea Sculpture is working very hard to help the workers that make our Sculptures and in turn their families to improve their wellbeing and lifestyle.

We have now decided to improve our help with a new incentive called Pangea Africa aid By giving a bit you will be giving a-lot to them.

Since 2014 Pangea has given just over $1,OOO,OOO to support & improve working conditions and safety within 9 different workshops that are making Sculptures for ourselves and we have also supported one local school in Nairobi with 36 children between 5 to 11 years old, we are continuing this support this for the foreseeable future.

The above support does not include the turnover for the sculptures which is considerable & growing year by year.

Currently we are responsible for the employment of about 460/500 people directly & indirectly in Africa, which i am personally very proud of.

We our asking yourselves if you would like to join us on this journey by donating any spare used, unused clothes, shoes, mobile phones, laptops, PCs etc This can be done by simply dropping goods off at our showroom in Ormskirk or

Former Champ delivery girl Lucy publishes novel... about life on Pluto!

A FORMER Champion delivery girl who went on to study Martian Geology at the University of Oxford has penned a science fiction novel set on Pluto!

Lucy Kissick, 29, from Birkdale, has published ‘Plutoshine’, after using her own interest in space as inspiration to come up with a storyline involving humans living on other planets.

She said: “Plutoshine is my first book and I’m so excited to see the first couple of reviews come in, which is incredibly nervewracking!

“I’m already signed up to write another book and I would love to go somewhere else entirely with it: Mercury perhaps, or see Earth through the eyes of my characters who were born on Pluto.

“I’ve just finished my PhD in the geology of the planet Mars. It’s amazing to me, but you don’t need to be a physicist to study space anymore. We now know enough about the surface of Mars to recreate what its surface might have been like three billion years ago in the lab.

“That’s what I did. I made miniature lakes inside beakers of water to see if I could create minerals that satellites had actually observed on the planet from space. And I did, in the very last experiment!”

Plutoshine has been published

by Orion Publishing Co and has already received positive reviews, including from The Guardian, which described it as “a rousing good story”. It can be bought Lucy with a copy of her from www.waterstones.com. book

ONE of Southport’s oldest pubs will be turned into selfcontained flats.

The closed-down Falstaff (pictured), on King Street, will be given a new lease of life as a residential property after plans by Penrith Property Management Ltd were passed by Sefton Council.

Although an exact date on when the pub first opened is unknown, according to a heritage statement the building was first built “in the immediate post-war period.”

The pub had a £500,000 refurb in 2015 but what was supposed to be a new future for the venue was shortlived as it closed in 2019.

A council report states: “The site has been vacant for at least two years and given its position to the edge of the town centre and within a street whereby the vast majority of properties are residential, its conversion would not harm the character of the area.

“The scale of the development is relatively small and would not compromise the vitality or viability of the town centre.”

YOUNG executives, the late poet laureate Sir John Betjeman once opined, drove the firm’s Cortina. Nearly 50 years on, the same gogetters will be ruddy lucky if they get a 1-Series chucked in as part of their competitive salary package – and now it looks increasingly likely that they’ll have to pay to park it outside the office too.

There’s a lot of talk at the moment about various local authorities rolling out what’s known as a Workplace Parking Levy – essentially, a business is asked to pay an annual charge for each of the parking spaces it owns, which in turn is used by the council to fund better public transport.

The good people of Nottingham are way ahead on this one, having used their £458-a-space levy to fund an extension of the city’s tram network. Scotland has just given its various towns and cities the power to roll out WPLs as they see fit, Leicester’s consulted on a similar scheme, and in the face of an air pollution alert, London mayor Sadiq Khan’s on the case in the capital. It’s worth pointing out that as far as I’m aware neither Sefton nor West Lancashire are planning anything similar at the moment – but nor, I reckon, would they want to rule it out.

And as a devoted driver I hate it, right? Not exactly, but I reckon there is a smarter way of doing it without crippling our young executives.

Real-world residents who are almost certainly struggling with trying to save up for deposits on houses in new-build estates in the middle of nowhere and, when they do scrimp together enough, will then be paying £1.60 a litre to get to and from them to their offices, largely because there isn’t a bus that runs early enough to get them into work before 9am.

My chief beef with WPLs is that a parking space is exactly that – a vacant spot that says absolutely nothing about what’s going to be

parked in it. It might, for instance, spend five days a week being occupied by an Audi S8 Black Edition, for which the company MD will have forked out £105,610 and for whom £40 a month is no big deal. On the other hand, it could be filled by an 05-plate Fiesta owned by a working mum who’s behind on the gas bills. Unless it’s meted out by businesses in a measured way – and at the moment, there’s no requirement to do so – it’s essentially a tax that hits the poorest hardest.

I reckon that rather than issuing a blanket levy that simply stings you for being cheeky enough for owning a car AND using it for commuting, the powers-that-be could charge drivers instead for the kind of cars that’ll be filling the spaces. Anyone rich enough to own a brand-new Lotus Emira could pay top whack, but those tootling around in Polos and Corsas could be charged rather less. Perhaps incentives could be introduced to incentivise ownership of eco-friendly models. Oh, and in the interests of making it fair, let’s make it nationwide rather than rolled out piecemeal by councils, and charge all drivers across the whole range of motoring that they do.

You could call it – wait for it – a road tax. I think it’ll catch on. Oh wait…
