Plea to stop ‘knee-jerk’ school merger

THE ONLY BLUE IN A SEA OF RED! Moore is lone Tory MP in Sefton - and the whole of Merseyside! following his victory in ‘bitter’ Southport election campaign

IT was billed as a three-way fight for the right to be elected the town’s next representative in parliament - but in the end it was Conservative Damien Moore who landed all the knock-out punches to crush his two rivals and so return as Southport MP. Mr Moore retained the constituency brushing aside what turned out to be a feeble Lib Dem challenge and although his Labour opponent, Liz Savage, proved a more awkward combatant, she too failed to get the votes required to unseat the Tory.

Now Mr Moore is the only Tory blue amid a sea of red Labour MPs in the whole of the Merseyside region.

Worryingly for his political rivals, possible boundary changes could strengthen the Tories position still further come the next General Election with the Northern Parishes of West Lancashire - traditionally more

by Danielle Thompson Conservative - cementing the Conservatives current stranglehold in Southport. Time will tell as will the performance of the Tories and Boris Johnson over the next five years as they look to make good their promises of more money for the northern heartlands that helped the party to a landslide election victory last Thursday.

Mr Moore first won the seat in 2017, which was previously held by long-standing Lib Dem MP John Pugh, who held the seat from 2001-

The three candidates in the Southport General Election take to the stage before the town’s next MP is revealed

2017. At the vote on Thursday, Mr Moore retained the Southport seat with 22,914 votes (47.6%); Labour candidate Liz Savage received 18,767 votes (39%) and Lib Dem John Wright 6,499 votes (13.5%).

This was an 8.9% increase on the 2017 general election when Mr Moore had a majority of 2,914 votes.

Labour gained 6.4% from the last general election, while the Lib Dems

lost 12.9%. There are 70,837 registered voters in Southport and 68% turned out to vote - down 1.1% on the previous election.

Damien Moore is the only Conservative MP in the whole of Merseyside. In the Sefton Borough area, Labour MPs retained Sefton Central (Bill Esterson), and Bootle (Peter Dowd).

Mr Moore thanked his campaign team and the people of Southport.

He said: “I will be proud to serve in the Conservative majority government. I am both honoured and humbled. Continued inside

‘The campaign was filled with really personal attacks, so I am glad to put it behind us and give the people of Southport what they voted for...’

Schoolchildren plant 44,000 spring flowering bulbs across the borough AS many as 44,000 spring flowering bulbs have been planted by schoolchildren across the borough.

The huge number of bulbs almost replicates a bulb for every primary school child in Sefton.

The crocus and daffodil bulbs were planted in November and December through the council’s Green Sefton team and will burst into life next spring during the Borough of Culture year.

2019 is currently Wirral’s year while 2020 will be dedicated to Sefton with a raft of new, existing and community led events planned for the year.

The focus of Sefton’s year will be on stories, looking at two key elements, local history and the environment.

Mark Shaw from Green Sefton, said: “The activity is to help highlight the launch of the Borough of Culture and to celebrate the wonderful parks and greenspaces we have in Sefton.

“Through our Green Sefton Rangers, we have planted more than 44,000 bulbs and believe the planting is a great way to get school children interested and passionate about their environment.

“During 2020 we will see the bulbs spring to live adding beautiful colour to our amazing parks and greenspaces as part of our Borough of Culture year and they’ll keep on flowering for many years to come.”

Children get involved in the planting

Some of the sites involved in the bulb planting include Botanic Gardens, Preston New Road, Bedford Park, King’s Gardens, Devonshire Road and Ainsdale Village park, all in Southport.

Some of the primary schools involved across Sefton include: All Saints, St Edmond’s, St Thomas, Linacre Primary, St Monica’s, Ursuline Primary, Great Crosby, Churchtown, Hillside Park, St Elizabeth’s, Lander Road, Christ Church, St Oswald’s and St Mary’s prep.

Dealer had nine bags of cannabis in his underwear, court is told A COURT has heard how a drug dealer from Southport kept his drugs in his underwear.

Alternative vision proposed to save St Teresa’s from ‘knee-jerk’ merger plan Report by Danielle Thompson AN ‘alternative vision’ has been put forward to save St Teresa’s N ursery and Infant School in Birkdale from a ‘risky jump into the dark.’

In October, staff and parents at the school on Everton Road were shocked to discover in a council report that it could be set to close or merge with its sister school, Our Lady of Lourdes Primary School, which is also in Birkdale, on Grantham Road. A statutory consultation on the future of the school is currently active.

The report outlined the financial position of both schools and stated that St Teresa’s has a forecast deficit for 2019/20 of £66,000 even after agreeing to share a headteacher from September 2019 with Our Lady which has a forecast surplus balance of £201,000 in 2019/20, but is expected to go into a

St Teresa's Catholic Infant and Nursery School on Everton Road

deficit position of £35,000 by the end of 2020/21.

Both schools would therefore be in a deficit of £77,000 by 2020/21, without extra funding or by reducing costs.

Options suggested in the report for the school’s future include both merging and continuing to

Boundary changes could see Tories hand strengthened still further, says victorious Damien, as he eyes up Northern Parishes From page 1

We have won this election fighting a positive campaign, delivering locally and having a strong message that we need to get Brexit done.”

He told the Champion: “I think there is a whole horde of reasons why people voted for me, it’s not as simple as ‘if Labour and the Lib Dems were combined they would have won.’

“I won the seat and I am delighted - it was my second in a row and I have gained an increased majority.

“As it was a winter election and concerns that the weather could affect voter turnout, we worked flat out and achieved the result.

“N ow I will be going straight to London for an extended period of time to deal with Brexit.

“It was quite a bitter campaign in Southport, it was filled with really personal attacks so I am glad to put it behind us and give the people of Southport what they voted for.

“By the next general election, I believe that the footprint of Southport will have been extended to the north, which should work in my favour as that is a Conservative-voting area, so I am hoping that I will do even better at the next one.”

Mr Moore was referring to possible boundary changes which could encompass West Lancashire’s LOOKING FOR A BARGAIN?

fied of Jeremy Corbyn getting into Number10; and many Liberal Democrat voters went with Labour because they couldn’t stand Boris Johnson and thought that voting Labour was the best way to stop him. In the end, it was a wasted effort.”

Former MP John Pugh, said last Thursday’s result was dire for the Liberal Democrats nationally and locally. We knew from the start that the party’s Revoke stance, however presented, was a huge millstone round our neck. We knew we were up against an effective national Tory campaign and the whole of the Merseyside Labour machine calling upon hundreds of outside helpers.

“It is blatantly obvious that my party is partauthor of its own misfortune. “ When you have a flagship policy like ‘Revoke’ which many of us felt uncomfortable explaining, let alone justifying, expect the worst, if only because you seem to be turning a tin ear to a significant section of the electorate.

“The Lib Dem vote got badly squeezed and as always when this happens in Southport, the Tories resultantly won. That will please some; depress others but in my view was avoidable if the party had listened properly to sensible voices in the north, pointing out the blindingly obvious.”

operate from both sites; both merging with all pupils based at the OLOL site; or the outright closure of St Teresa’s. The report states that there has been a decline in the nursery/infant age population in the area which has exacerbated the problem of falling numbers at St Teresa’s, with occupancy currently at 55 pupils out of a possible 90 – meaning only 61% of their places have been filled.

St Teresa’s staff sent parents a letter, saying that it was ‘absolutely not acceptable’ that the parents did not find out directly from them and that they were ‘aggrieved and exasperated on their behalf.’

But now Dukes Ward Councillor John Pugh has revealed an ‘alternative vision’ for the school, which he believes suffered falling numbers after a poor Ofsted in November 2016 following the July 2015 departure of ‘inspirational’ headmistress Anna Gavin, followed by a period of ‘poor leadership, staff instability and low morale’. He believes the school’s future would be fixed with his longterm plan, rather than with a ‘knee-jerk merger.’

He said: “As it stands the current merger proposal looks at best blundering and at worse, a risky jump into the dark.

“My alternative would be to re-form the two schools as an extended school confederation. This would allow St Teresa’s to address their budget deficit; allow both schools a period of grace during which marketing and promotion deficiencies can be robustly addressed; enable further development of ‘wrap-around’ care at both sites before and after school hours; respond positively to the needs of local parents and the daily stress of school pickup logistics and play to the existing strengths and capacities of both schools.

“There is an alternative mapped out here to a shotgun merger. It is no less beset with uncertainties than the local authority proposal and has at least the capacity to excite and inspire, rather than present a dismal prospect of managed decline.

“It requires the governing bodies to request ‘a period of grace’ of two years or more and a willingness of any Steering Group to work enthusiastically at all levels with parents, staff and the wider community to turn the vision into reality.”

Top tips to keep your home safe over the festive period IF you are planning to leave your home unattended this Christmas, make sure that you take extra steps to ensure that your property is safe while you are gone.

Among the top tips to help keep tour property secure are: l Don’t hide a key - this applies all year round but the temptation seems to be even greater at Christmas and many of us stash a key in case of emergencies. While you’re away visiting family potential thieves will conduct a thorough search and often find it.

Give a key to your neighbours, family or friends instead. l Up your security - if you are leaving for a prolonged period of time, upgrading your security system and alarms is money well spent. Even the presence of security lights with motion sensors can be enough to discourage potential break-ins so make sure yours are in working order and if you don’t have them, they can be an affordable addition to your home security set up. l Don’t forget the garage there’s no point in keeping your home tighter than Fort Knox if your garage is letting the side down. It’s often the first place a burglar will try and many people neglect to secure it, providing an easy route into your home, or at

the least, the items stored within it. l Keep your tree out of sight it’s tempting to place your tree and the presents beneath it right by the window so all can see your festive setup, but doing so will broadcast to potential thieves that there are valuable goods easily accessible from the front window of your house. Try to keep your tree and presents under wraps and out of sight from public view. If you are going away, don’t leave other valuable items on show or out in the house. Also try to avoid obvious hiding places. l Don’t broadcast your absence - today many of us take to social media to broadcast we’re going away. Doing so can alert people that you are away from home and leave you open to a break-in.

Also, create the impression you are still home. You might not go the full Kevin McAllister and set up a fake Christmas party but creating the impression you are home can deter a break-in. Timed switches for lighting are a good place to start although ensure they come on sporadically not at the same point every day.

Keep curtains closed, hide any washing racks or other indicators you’ve not been home for a while.

Tidy the garden before you leave and cancel any newspaper or milk deliveries as these are clear

signs you’re not home if they start to build up. Even keeping a car parked in the drive can help. l Locks and keys - before you go away double-check every window and door is locked and that no keys can be reached from outside of the house - usually through the letterbox. Also check your plugs and pipes It’s not just criminals that can ruin Christmas. Reduce the risk of fires by turning off everything other than the fridge freezer if necessary.

We know it’s one of the most complicated things on earth, but utilising your boiler’s timer feature while you’re away can ensure that pipes benefit from circulation in colder conditions and can avoid any burst pipes or flooding when you return. While you’re at it, check that they are insulated and you have no cracks that can be made worse by the freezing conditions. l Check your insurance double-check your home insurance and make sure you are covered for every eventuality.

You’re statistically more likely to be a victim of water damage from a burst pipe than you are to be burgled.

Sustainability award for station

Police want to speak with this man...

AINSDALE train station has been given a ‘sustainability award for community involvement’.

The station is now the most environmentally-friendly on the network after extensive renovations last July. The previous booking office was demolished to make way for a new building, complete with solar panels, lowenergy LED lighting with smart controls and rainwater harvesting tanks to serve the toilet facilities.

Judges were impressed with

Carl Pennington

DO you recognise this man?

Detectives in Sefton want to speak to Carl Pennington, 27, in relation to allegations of assault and criminal damage in Southport in September.

Pennington is white, 5ft 7in tall, of proportionate build, with short brown hair and brown eyes. He has links to Southport town centre and Atherton in Greater Manchester.

If you see him, the police urge you to call 999. You can pass any other info on via @MerPolCC, 101 or Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111.

the team behind the transformation, who they said ‘went way beyond in delivering the details for the community’ and praised the project for providing ‘a message to industry on looking for win-wins of delivering multiple outcomes in one project’.

The local community was involved from the outset to ensure that the station was exactly what the village needed, and views and issues raised were taken into account and presented as part of the proposed overall solution. Changes in the

design of the tower and road marking alterations to prevent overflow parking were incorporated following concerns from nearby residents, while the local community was kept informed of progress and consulted throughout the construction phase.

In addition, the station was kept open during the re-development programme, ensuring passenger disruption was kept to an absolute minimum. The refurbishment was funded by Merseytravel and Network Rail.

Reminder to residents that non-urgent evening and weekend medical appointments can be made with ‘7 day GP service’ Report by Danielle Thompson

Church’s festive trees on display THE annual Christmas Tree event at St Cuthbert’s Church in Halsall will be held on Sunday (December 22).

It will run from 2pm4pm and will feature a large selection of 30 or so different trees on display, with any donations used for the upkeep of the church.

Organiser Enid Banks said: “This ancient village church looks beautiful with its festive decorations. Just take an hour away from the rush of everything, you won’t be disappointed.”

SEFTON residents are being reminded that they can book non-urgent evening and weekend appointments with a GP, advance nurse practitioner or health care assistant with the ‘7 day GP service’.

With Christmas around the corner, the NHS Southport and Formby CCG is reminding residents that the GP extended access scheme operates seven days a week, 365 days a year, including bank holidays - including Christmas Day, Boxing Day and New Year’s Day. This service is offered to patients from all GP practices across Southport and Formby at 107 Liverpool Road, Birkdale. You can book an evening or weekend appointment up to seven days in advance by calling your GP practice during their open hours, or if they are closed you can call 111.

Southport resident, Mark Brimble, explained how he benefited from the service being in full time employment: “On a Saturday morning I was feeling unwell and when I called 111 as my practice was closed, they booked me in with the 7 day GP service for that morning.

“Although it wasn’t at my usual practice it was really local and didn’t take me long to get there. I saw a local GP who was really helpful with my illness and I was so grateful to have seen someone that day and not have to wait and take time off work. I’d recommend the service to anyone, especially those who work full time. It was quick and easy to book and just as good as going to my own practice for an appointment.”

The road closures after the incident

Pensioner dies after road traffic collision on Lord Street AN 84-YEAR-OLD man has died after a road traffic collision in Southport town centre.

The emergency services were called to Lord Street on Wednesday morning (December 11) after a pedestrian was hit by a van at 8.45am.

He was taken to hospital with a serious head injury and in a critical condition after the incident which happened by the Beales department store. The man died later that day.

The driver of the van stopped to assist with enquiries.

Road closures were in place on Lord Street between London Street and Eastbank Street for

about four hours while officers carried out investigations.

This is the second incident at the same area of Lord Street in a matter of months.

A police spokesman said: “We can confirm following a road traffic collision in Southport this morning, an 84-year-old man has sadly died.

“His next of kin have been informed and are being supported by specially trained officers at this time.”

Enquiries are ongoing to establish the full circumstances and anyone with information is asked to contact the Roads Policing Unit on 0151 777 5747.

d to attend our

You are warmly invite Mark Brimble, a Southport patient, who recommends the service

Dr Rob Caudwell, chair of NHS Southport and Formby CCG, said: “We know from listening to our local residents that they sometimes find it difficult to book GP appointments, particularly at times to suit their busy lives. Our 7 day GP service was introduced to reflect the needs of patients in today’s society, by not only increasing the availability of GP appointments, but also making these appointments available later in the evening and at the weekend.

“Visiting a GP during typical working hours isn’t always possible for some people, due to work or other commitments, so the service allows patients to visit a GP up to 8pm on weekday evenings and from 9am-noon on Saturday and Sunday. Weekend times can vary during the year, so please check with your practice.”

“We hope that this vote of confidence in our plans from the parish council will also improve our chances of obtaining additional funding and move us much closer to our target of having a new community centre by June 2020.”

Parish Councillor Diane Earles, Treasurer for Hesketh Bank Community Centre, says they have received three quotes for the new facility ranging between £400,000 and £600,000. With the £50,000 donated by the parish council added to money already raised, and further grants of £100,000 it hopes to receive from both West Lancs council (from CIL funds) and the National Lottery, Cllr Earles said the centre hopes to have £300,000 towards the cost.

Options currently being considered by the trustees on how to raise the remaining money needed include selling part of the land the community centre is situated on, or selling it all and building at another location.

BARGAIN! As

As part of our Make A Wish initiative, where we worked with our residents to achieve things they always wanted to do, we visited Concorde. Our resident, aged 86, climbed the long staircase unaided, to board the Concorde and make his dream a reality. He and his fellow lodge residents enjoyed a VIP tour of the legendary Concorde G-BOAC at Manchester Runway Visitor Park. Alison, a member of Athena’s senior team said, “There’s always something exciting going on at our lodges, the level choice we provide our residents is something we’re truly proud of!”

Here at Athena, we’re committed to working closely with our local communities to breakdown social barriers such as

isolation and we continued to do so in 2019. Through initiatives such as the Community Hub, our twinned nurseries and other outreach programmes we seek to develop lasting and meaningful links with the community.

2019 saw the launch of our newest reminiscence therapy initiatives, Musical Memory Café and Past Lives. The Musical Memory Café is open to the public and seeks to reduce isolation and create new bonds of friendship over the memories linked to music. Whilst Past Lives enables our residents to revisit places of significance from their pasts, to share happy memories.

Watch this space, as in 2020 we’ll be launching our Sporting Memories initiative to build on the above!

We’re truly grateful to all for making 2019 so wonderful. From all at Athena, we wish you a very merry Christmas and a happy new year!

Members of the Southport and District Flower Club celebrated their sparkling Blue Sapphire anniversary at Hillside Golf Club

Flower arranging club celebrate sparkling Blue Diamond anniversary MEMBERS of Southport and District Flower Club were thrilled to celebrate their sparkling Blue Sapphire anniversary.

The club, who enjoy flower arranging at 1.30pm on the third Wednesday of each

month (apart form August and December) at St James Memorial Hall on Lulworth Road marked the special date with a talk from a guest speaker on December 4 at Hillside Golf Club. It was

attended by club members, the area president of the club and the vice chair of the National Association of Flower Arrangers – which they are members of.

Fran Percival from the club said: “It was

a wonderful celebration of 65 years of the club. As something different, we enjoyed a guest speaker, Sheara Abrahams, who does the wardrobe on big films, which was fascinating to hear about.”

Drink driver who was four times over the limit, had child in car A WOMAN has been given a suspended prison sentence for driving more than four times over the drink drive limit when her seven-year-old son was in the car.

Gaynor Haslam, 49, of Walnut Street, Southport, appeared at Sefton Magistrates Court on December 11.

The court heard that Haslam was reported to police by staff at a store on Cemetery Road, Southport, due to their concerns she may have been drinking and driving.

“She appeared to be under the influence of alcohol,” prosecutor Eve Johnson, said. “She purchased a bottle of alcohol and was with her seven-year-old son.”

The court heard that after officers arrived at her home she failed a breath test and sub-

sequent breath tests showed she had 144 micrograms of alcohol in 100ml of breath, the legal limit is 35mcg/100ml.

Ms Johnson continued: “In interview she said she did not realise she had been over the limit. She did seem to suggest that she had some alcohol at home between being reported to police and officers arriving. She is of good character, she has no previous convictions.”

Haslam was represented by barrister Keith Jones who said in mitigation that she had developed a drinking problem after being assaulted last year by a man who was jailed for the offence and subsequently suffered marital problems.

“Her coping mechanism was to turn to alcohol,” he said, adding: “She fully accepts that it is an aggravating feature that her son

was in the car with her. She says that she didn’t think that she’d had as much to drink as the reading shows. She is extremely ashamed that she put her son at risk. There was no harm caused to any parties.”

Magistrates said the offence was so serious the custody threshold had been passed and sentenced her to eight weeks custody. However, due to the mitigation they said they would suspend the term for 12 months.

Following probation service recommendations, they ordered that Haslam undertake a 15 day rehabilitative program, a six months alcohol treatment program, and imposed an eightweek 7pm to 7am curfew.

They also banned her from driving for three years and ordered that she pay £207 in costs and victim surcharge.

RSPB has every right to impose Exemplary care charges at its Marshside site I am writing to defend the RSPB’s decision to introduce parking charges at its Marshside N ature Reserve, and to take issue with some of the comments made by A. Bulteel on your letters page of November 20, 2019.

The RSPB is a charity doing fantastic work with limited financial and personnel resources. It is their responsibility to manage the Nature Reserve and in doing so to protect wildlife.

Unfortunately, some irresponsible dog walkers allow their dogs to foul the paths and to disturb the birds. Even worse they often leave dog poo bags hanging in bushes on the paths around the lakes for RSPB staff and other noble volunteer groups to clear up.

Clearly, resources should not have to be diverted to dealing with such matters. In my opinion, the RSPB has every right to raise revenue through imposing a small car parking charge to help with

the costs of managing this huge site which is otherwise free for all to use and to enjoy. I don't think it is too much to ask for responsible dog owners visiting by car to bear some of the cost of maintaining this Reserve and, in any case, parking charges can be avoided by joining the RSPB. Your reader is also incorrect in stating that most visitors to Marshside Nature Reserve arrive by car.

Many local people walk around the Reserve from the Marshside neighbourhood on a daily basis without recourse to taking their cars out. The locality is well served by regular public buses too.

Any responsible dog owner will surely take into account the implications of looking after their pets before acquiring them, including the costs of visiting the coast and countryside.

Mrs E Taylor, Southport

We often hear people complaining about Southport Hospital.

With that in mind, I would like to let you know of my experience with my husband.

He was admitted to ward 15B on September 2 with a cerebral haemorrhage. From the minute I took him to A&E to the day he passed away on September 17, his treatment and care was exemplary.

Each and every member of staff was thoughtful, caring and very understanding despite working extremely long hours. The quality of care that my husband received was, to my understanding, of the highest standard for which I will be eternally grateful.

I hope this will in some way help to negate the negative comments that the hospital receives from time to time.

L Nolte, Formby

Amazing response to our plea in the Champion A few weeks ago the Champion very kindly published a plea for reading helper volunteers to help our charity support more children in local primary schools to become confident and able readers.

We had an amazing response, with 16 people applying via our website from Sefton and the surrounding area.

Of those, two readers have already been trained and placed in schools, and a further seven are about to be trained.

Each of those volunteers will support three children each, so that means 27 more children in the local area will receive valuable one-to-one reading support twice a week for the next year - this will have an incredible impact on their reading progress.

I just thought you should know the meaningful difference you and your readers are making.

Kate Rumsby Coram Beanstalk l Coram Beanstalk is committed to safeguarding the welfare of children and young people. Please call 020 7729 4087 to report any safeguarding concerns.

Sharp practices at NCP It is no accident that NCP Car Parks in Southport display confusing and deceptive signage at the entrances to their car parks - ‘Drivers stung by over complicated signs at car park’ Champion Letters, December 4, particularly at Christmas periods.

At their main car park at Southport Railway Station NCP prominently display a large sign inviting drivers to ‘Park all day’ for a small fee, but fail to show the restrictions and draconian penalties which apply should busy shoppers fail to study carefully the ‘ terms an conditions’ notices.

There is no doubt in my mind that these conditions are deliberately formulated to deceive their customers, so much so that I have in previous years, threatened to expose their sharp practice to national TV. This resulted in them swiftly changing the signage on the Station car park. Alas, they subsequently reverted to their deceptive version.

Trouble with the rubble Regarding the Champ story ‘National Trust should remove dangerous rubble from the beach’.

The problem of demolition rubble emerging from the dunes and falling onto the beach at Victoria Road is not a new one, but has been accelerating in recent years as the frontal dunes roll back over the car park.

In the past thousands of pounds have been spent every year to clear the waste materials away, but with coastal change set to continue, a more permanent solution is needed.

Over the coming weeks and months the National Trust is going to be seeking a solution to the problem of the loss of car park spaces and rubble on the beach. We aim to create a safer, more beautiful beach, benefit the natural flora and fauna of the coastal dune system and continue to provide for visitors and local people to enjoy the coast. We

will be continuing to work closely with the community to develop our plans and there will be many ways to be involved.

In the first instance please keep an eye on our social media feeds (Facebook/twitter: @ntFormby) or, on our website https://bit.ly/216ZFsG for more about the challenges and opportunities at Victoria Road.

If you are interested in helping to develop plans for the future, participation events will also be advertised in the local press and on site.

Help the N ational Trust ensure that any changes meet the needs of all those who love the coast as well as protecting the natural environment.

Fi Matthews, National Trust Community Involvement Officer, Formby

Cricket club has been treated with contempt by Lancashire Once again a Lancashire County fixture will not be held at Southport & Birkdale Cricket Club in 2020. (as reported in the Champion).

They have again opted to play matches at the remote rural location of Sedbergh School in the Yorkshire Dales.

N o wonder Lancashire have now dropped County from their name and are now known as Lancashire Cricket Club which was done without consulting the membership.

The Southport club have been treated with contempt, especially when it has gone out of its way to accommodate Lancashire CC by improving the changing rooms and facilities at the Southport club’s own expense.

Lancashire Director of Cricket, Paul Allott, claims the club is prepared to supply extra ground staff to help on preparation in 2021 if Southport is granted a county championship fixture, so why could they have not offered this in 2020?

Unfortunately Lancashire has a reputation for rubbing clubs up the wrong way and many league clubs previously on the circuit have now opted not to offer their grounds for Lancashire second eleven fixtures because they received no help and it is more trouble than it is worth for the volunteers required, I can think of at least 15 league clubs who have made this decision.

Jeff Carter, Southport

I would like to add my voice to complaints in the Champion about the confusing parking charges at NCP’s London Road car park.

There is no indication in the signs about whether to pay on arrival or departure so the customer can be forgiven for assuming the previous system, of paying when leaving, is still in force.

However, despite following the on-screen instructions on my exit from the car park I was levied with a penalty charge accompanied by dire warnings that this would escalate if I didn't pay up quickly.

N eedless to say my appeal was rejected and two subsequent complaints to the company received no response.

I would add that when I revisited the car park to check what the signs actually instructed customers to do, I could find no reference to paying on arrival. I also found a number of other puzzled drivers asking the same questions about how and when to pay.

Would it be so hard to have a system where you pay on leaving and everyone’s happy?

DH, Birkdale

...and more parking anger Regarding the N CP car parking story. The N CP spokesperson said “we would have accepted payment on exit provided that the amount was correct.” This isn’t true.

I parked there the week the system changed and didn’t follow the instructions in the exact order specified (even though I tried). My parking should have cost less than £2 as an early bird price, but I actually paid nearly £5 on exit.

I was also then fined £100 and told when I appealed that the signage was perfectly clear and understandable. Keep up the good work, Champion!

Frustrated, Southport

Having a clear-out is just the ticket to finding lost treasures!

WELL here I am on General Election day with dogs Tina and Cinders going bananas as a really friendly electrician is starting work on completely rewiring my domicile - a task which unhappily will take about four days with lots of banging and drilling going on to keep the dogs barking.

At least they are not barking mad as most of our politicians seem to be.

Last week I suffered the self imposed indignity of having years of accumulated junk cleared out of the house - with, sadly not a few items that were in fact not junk at all including, slightly puzzlingly, most of my eating-type knives.

Which brought me to a rather strange fact. My local Home Bargains store sells quite attractive cutlery forks and spoons - but not knives.

I presume this is to stop possible weapons from falling into the wrong hands, but really, what is the point in selling all the table ware you need - except knives?

After all, a table knife is hardly likely to appeal to any attacker.

Still, the upshot of all this is surely worth a knife or four if it restores power to Sharpey Towers.

Still, apart from items gone astray, the clearance also brought to light several items I thought had gone for good - including a book about the Atlantic Liner RMS Aquitania and a more esoteric item It is a bus conductor’s ‘TIM’ ticket machine formerly of Aberdare Corporation which can print our such useful tickets as workmans’ returns with values down to one ‘old’ penny.

I bought it cheaply many years ago, though I believe they are rather rare and worth far more now.

Many years ago I wrote a feature about a man who runs a typewriter museum which included many other interesting objects and I promised him the long-term loan of my ticket machine.

I meant to dig it out when I got home and take it round to him, but could I find it - could I heck.

Eventually I decided that I must have abandoned it in my house in Colchester when I moved back to this area.

If this chap and his museum are still going strong I would be only too pleased to fulfil my promise if he contacts me via the Champion - and I won’t lose it again!

And talking (yes, again) about bus related things, again many years ago when a bus stop, or shelter was provided with a timetable board it had ‘proper ’ timetables on it, showing not just when an XXX bus was due, but with a comprehensive list of the times it reached each major point between where you were and where you were going.

Now all you get is the time it is supposed to reach wherever you are at the moment -which is fine if you use that service regularly but not so good if you don’t and would rather like to know when you are likely to arrive at your destination.

Mind you, folk these days seem incapable of actually reading a timetable so perhaps that is why - and to be fair this isn’t something that has happened only in recent years.

When I lived and worked in Colchester I was based at BT’s Eastern Region HQ - which housed all the Big Wigs from the Regional Controller down, whose secretaries were generally known as ‘the girls on the seventh floor.’

They regularly came down from their eerie to ask me how to read train timetables - as did all kinds of folk from all kinds of departments who wished to catch a train to some area headquarters.

Oh well, I seem to have covered trains and boats and though my flying days seem to be over since my motor cruiser Manxman came into my life you have been treated to a dose of buses instead.

I am still not sure whether my electric supply will have been restored by Christmas since my suppliers are somewhat dilatory in sending an engineer to check the system back on. Only time will tell.

Conference makes pledge on serious and organised crime in Merseyside Report by Danielle Thompson ATTENDEES at a multi-agency conference pledged their committent to ending serious and organised crime in Sefton.

The Sefton Safer Communities Partnership hosted representatives from Merseyside Police, Local Safeguarding Children Boards, National Probation Service, youth groups, community and voluntary sector services, councillors and other partners for a ‘Serious and Organised Crime (SOC) Conference’ in Sefton.

The event, held at Linacre Methodist Mission and part funded by the Merseyside Violence Reduction Unit, aimed to discuss how the different organisations can work together to support families and young people at risk of getting involved in organised crime, what early intervention is available including education, employment and training opportunities, as well as how they can collectively tackle gang culture in Sefton.

It is hoped a partnership-led approach will discourage young people from getting involved in criminality by providing them with positive alternatives as well as encouraging communities to feel confident in speaking to the partnership members and sharing intelligence to bring offenders to justice.

Superintendent Graeme Robson said: “We know a large amount of people living in Sefton are decent, law-abiding people, who have every right to live in a safe and happy environment.

“However, here in Sefton, we face some chal-

lenges around SOC, particularly in South Sefton.

This, accompanied by people living in deprivation, is unfortunately a perfect recipe for our young people to be at risk of exploitation - and that needs to urgently change.

“Currently, there are multiple organised crime groups operating in Sefton who think violence as well as gun and knife crime is the answer to their problems and this couldn’t be further from the truth.

“We need to break down the ‘wall of silence’ in Sefton, where communities don’t want to speak to police or report incidents. We need to collectively educate young people that the police and our partners are here to protect them, to offer them a safe place to confide in and we have the resources to support them, giving them the anonymity if they need it and bringing them the justice and tranquillity they deserve.

“A part of this is demonstrated through our heightened policing response aimed at tackling serious and violent crime dubbed Operation Target. This was launched a year ago and has seen dedicated resources proactively disrupting criminal groups, removing weapons from our streets, carrying out warrants, days of action and gang injunctions.

“In addition, our Multi Agency Safeguarding Hub (MASH) has also been fundamental in identifying opportunities to help children, ensuring young people who are surrounded by criminal activity through no fault of their own, do not view a life of criminality as attractive or inevitable.

“This event shows the public that despite the challenges, we are committed to facing them head on.

We will stand shoulder to shoulder with our partners and ensure residents are free from harm.”

ENTERTAINMENT

See Gremlins on the big screen at Bijou HERE’S the latest listing of the festive movies you can discover and rediscover at the Bijou Cinema in Post Office Avenue this Christmas period.

The films this week are: Gremlins (1984). Mischievous monsters ahoy!

Residents probably have seen this on TV but it does take a big screen to fully appreciate this classic movie. Hilarious, suspenseful and really well made, even by today’s standards, this is a joy for all the family. (15) It will be shown on Thursday, December 19 at 7.30 pm.

Bad Santa (2003). As far removed from syrupy Christmas fayre as can be, Billy Bob Thornton excels as the conman turned thieving Santa. Very wry and not for the easily offended, it is nevertheless a hoot from start to finish. (15) It can be seen on Friday, December 20 at 7.30 pm.

A Christmas Carol (2009). Arguably Dickens finest tale revived in an animated format with Jim Carrey in multiple roles. It is lavishly done as people would expect from a Disney movie and a real treat to watch on the big screen (PG). The film can be seen on Saturday, December 21 at 2.30pm.

Love, Actually (2003). Richard Curtis’s film is now a solid Christmas classic for many 30 somethings. Love in London has never seemed so appealing and the stellar cast pulls off this light romantic story well. (15) It can be seen on Saturday, December 21 at 7.30pm.

Scrooged (2008). Bill Murray stars in this hilarious and heart warming rehash of A Christmas Carol. The film is a little forgotten now which is a shame as it is a truly lovely Christmas movie with all the right messages. Rare showing. (PG). The film will be on Sunday, December 22 at 7.30pm.

How The Grinch Stole Christmas (2000). Jim Carrey pulls out all the stops in this superb adaptation of Dr Seuss classic tale. This is a visually stunning film and again, a rare chance of seeing it as intended on a big screen. Great fun! It can be seen on Monday, December 23 at 2.30pm.

Panto starting SOUTHPORT Dramatic Club’s annual pantomime opens at 7.30pm tonight (Wednesday) evening at the Little Theatre in Hoghton Street and this year’s offering is the ever popular, Dick Whittington.

Written by Stephen Duckham, whose pantomimes have been performed regularly in the West End and all over the British Isles as well as in America, Australia and Europe, this is a not-to-be-missed version of one of the most popular seasonal pantos.

On New Year’s Eve at 1.30pm, there will be a special British Sign Language performance to improve the communication between the actors and people in the audience who are hard of hearing.

SANTA’S sleigh is going to need to be pretty hefty this year – because I suspect a fair few of you are going to be asking for the new Jaguar F-Type this Christmas.

Forget the logistics of getting this neatly facelifted sports car all the way from Castle Bromwich to the North Pole and then back to your place.

Put aside, for a moment, the question of how this range-topping Jaguar can possibly be squeezed down a chimney, and even if it could, what sort of an insurance payout the subsequent plummet towards your living room would prompt.

Nope, just think about, despite the months of faffing with its already delicate lines, and Jaguar’s decision to quietly drop the V6 from the range, how the F-Type is still one of the bestlooking new cars on sale today.

Initially, I thought the squinting headlight treatment, nabbed straight from the i-Pace electric car, didn’t really work – it almost looks as though it should have a set of Ferrari-esque pop-up headlights neatly sculpted into the bonnet too, but this isn’t the 1990s anymore.

Nor do I think the copious use of ‘JAGUAR – EST 1935’ logos dotted around the interior do it any favours, but the rest of it looks absolutely

spot on. Beautifully proportioned and, if Jaguar’s promo video of a V8 F-Type being pushed hard around some Alpine roads is anything to go by, it still sounds just as spine-tingling as the outgoing car, too. But if a friend or relative really is going to stick you down for an order just in time for Christmas, they’re going to have to be pretty generous.

Prices for the new F-Type start at £54,060, and that’s for one of the two-litre, four-cylinder versions, rather than the full fat V8 models.

A considerable amount when you remember that you can get a Porsche 718 Cayman S and the Mercedes-AMG SLC43, two-seater sports cars which are much more powerful than the FType, for less.

So which would I go for? None of them, actually, because I reckon the new Jaguar F-Type has some tough home-grown competition for less than half the price. The toughest competition for the new F-Type, I reckon…is the old FType. Especially because, having just been

made to look positively outdated, I think now’s absolutely the right time to make brave offers for the rakish original.

The other day I had a look at the classified ads and found a V6-engined model for £21k – so that’s an F-Type for less than the price of an entry-level Mondeo.

In other words, you get a (slightly) better looking Jaguar with more power (335bhp vs 300bhp). Admittedly, the one I found had 110,000 miles on the clock, and won’t have a warranty – but the £33,000 saving will pay for a lot of repairs!

It’s the same story with Porsche Caymans, BMW M3s, Mercedes SLKs and Audi TTs too – because the sort of people who insist on keeping up with the Joneses want the latest one to show off in, the savings on the old ones make them stomping value.

The older, prettier F-Type and more than £30k in your back pocket, or the wow factor of the new one? For me, it’s a no-brainer.

Port force replay in tough Trophy tie Report by Jonathan O’Byrne South Shields 2 Southport 2 SOUTHPORT and South Shields played out an entertaining 2-2 draw at Mariners Park meaning both sides were set to face each other all over again on Tuesday evening at the Pure Stadium.

The Sandgrounders remained unchanged from the match against Gloucester City and they had to patiently press the hosts who were keen to establish their free-flowing passing game.

That patience paid off when Southport sprung a counter attack and Bradley Bauress’ arrowed cross was met with a bullet header by Jack Sampson to give Southport the lead.

The second half was a different affair, Shields changed their tactics as the wind got stronger.

They went direct and their domination paid off with two quick goals.

Gary Brown prodded the ball past Charlie Albinson and then former Southport striker Jason Gilchrist fired the ball home with his third attempt of the afternoon with 17 minutes remaining.

Port were under pressure but managed to mout a late comeback when Raul Correia pounced on a mistake by Myles Bonney in the South Shields goal.

Ryan Astles rattled the bar with a header from a corner late on while Dean Winnard and David Morgan both had chances but were unable to take

them.

Big spending Shields are top of the BetVictor Northern Premier Division table and have a large expensively assembled squad and therefore the draw represents a better result than perhaps it looks on paper and the Sandgrounders will have had to perform to their best on Tuesday evening

to have a chance of progressing to the last 32 of the FA Trophy and the opportunity to take on National League side AFC Fylde away in the next round.

Port travel to Blyth Spartans on Saturday who are currently second from bottom in the National League North table.
