The lord has spoken...

The BBC has reported the latest update on the issue of the abolition of Cheshire County Council and its replacement by two unitary authorities.

The report quotes Lord Wade (the House of Lords was trying to force the government to rescind its decision) as saying: "(Cheshire) is a long-term historic county, to which those in it have a great deal of loyalty."

What a lost opportunity for the BBC to recognise this too, and give the residents of a Cheshire a decent online news service.
