Crewe shoppers are being ripped off by the Cheshire East Council on car park charges.

Tory run Cheshire East Council made a PROFIT of £1.2 miilion from the car parks in Crewe and Nantwich last year.

This is an outrage.

Crewe residents pay the highest parking fees in Cheshire East but they are going UP again this year.

Amazingly in NINE other towns (Sandbach,Alsager,Middlewich,Handforth,Prestbury,Poynton,Bollington,Disley & Holmes Chapel) motorists pay NOTHING to park. This unfairness has gone on for NINE years and 'For Britain' says enough is enough.

'For Britain' is calling for the parking charges in Crewe and Nantwich to be HALVED and for every Council car park in towns across the Borough to charge the same.It is the only fair thing to do.

Crewe is the most deprived town in the whole of Cheshire East but it has the highest car parking charges.

How can that possibly be justified?

Crewe town centre is in a spiral of decline so increasing car parking charges yet again will just make matters worse.

Labour run Crewe Town Council should be leading the campaign to cut car parking charges in the town but as usual they do nothing.

Best wishes,
