Our team enjoyed a really good day of campaigning in Upton today. The glorious spring sunshine certainly made us smile and the positive response as we met hundreds of residents was very encouraging. Thanks to everyone who chatted to us and took the opportunity to share their views with us about local issues and the election next May for a new Mayor of and Warrington. Give our candidate Ben Fletcher for Cheshire & Warrington a follow on Facebook if you aren’t already! Have a great rest of the weekend everyone.

Following our report to CWAC about the severe deterioration of the road surface on Flag Lane South, we’ve received this response! Quite unbelievable in our opinion and I’m sure anyone who lives or who has used Flag Lane South recently will have a different view.

Yesterday the team took action to report the severe deterioration of the road surface on Flag Lane South. This has been reported to CWAC who have been asked to inspect this area as a priority. We will update you on developments but in the meantime the reporting reference is HW829477619.

Good to have the team out and about in Upton again today, looking out for local issues and supporting Ben Fletcher for Cheshire & Warrington

Great to be back out in today meeting residents and chatting to them about issues of concern. We also took the opportunity to introduce our candidate for Mayor of Cheshire and Warrington, Ben Fletcher. Give him a follow on his page here: Ben Fletcher for Cheshire & Warrington. As usual, we picked up a few other 'local issues' which we will report to CWaC Council for action. There are a fair few around the area just now!

Labour's MP for North & is content for our green spaces to be built upon. She supports this approach from her government. The announcement below is important news.

The view of CWaC Planning officers is this: ‘Any land in the green belt can be designated as grey belt.’ This approach is already being used to 'deliver' development in the area in places which would previously almost certainly have been out of the question.

A future Conservative Government will change this and restore vital protections for our communities and the countryside. We need more houses - but in the right place, with the right infrastructure.

There are just so many potholes around Upton at the moment. When our team was out meeting residents in the Demage Lane area yesterday, we took the opportunity to report this one. Ref: CE826161940. We hope it will be repaired soon!

The team were out again in Upton this morning, talking to residents about the prospect of a new Mayor for Cheshire and Warrington. Great to be able to introduce our candidate Ben Fletcher for Cheshire & Warrington and talk about how his extensive business experience makes him such a strong choice when we go to the polls in May 2027.
