Local Liberal Democrats have welcomed the decision by the Secretary of State to call in for determination the planning application by Stobart's for a major logistics site on land north of Barleycastle Lane in Appleton Thorn.
Commenting to the Warrington Guardian following publication of the Government's 50-page COVID-19 recovery strategy document, Liberal Democrat Group Leader on Warrington Borough Council, Cllr Bob Barr said:
The Virus has highlighted the need for a major change in the relationship between our health and care services, writes Liberal Democrat Councillor Sharon Harris.
This year there should be jubilant celebrations of the Windrush 75th Anniversary. But instead we hear reports regarding Conservative plans to go back on Wendy Williams' recommendations.
The NHS is collapsing in front of our eyes whilst the Prime Minister and Health Secretary are nowhere to be seen.
"The New Year is an opportunity to turn the page and look ahead. And although things are tough for millions, I sense change is possible - so I look to the New Year with hope and optimism."
