About Cheshire Matters
Welcome to Cheshire Matters, the digital pub where we talk politics, news, and anything that matters (or doesn't) in our community, region, and country. Join us every week for a refreshing pint of satire as we navigate the world of politics. At Cheshire Matters, we're not afraid to tackle the tough issues, like why the neighbour's cat is running for mayor, or is the local coffee shop secretly controlling Parliament. So pull up a stool, grab a cold one, and join our band of pub-goers as we laugh, cry, and rage at the absurdity of it all, where the news is serious and satire is always on tap.

I actually see this as, you know, running away from their own responsibilities and offsetting facilities that are designed by local people to actually encourage the local people to fund themselves. But in in mind, council taxpayers actually pay for all the facilities in their own local areas. So this to me is another example of absconding from responsibilities and encouraging people to facilitate and fund themselves further, things in their own local community. […]
