Yes, your local press has comprehensively lied about what a senior NR representative said at a public meeting, and it didn't go down well when we picked up the story and asked him about it. I'd say you were just as far away as ever, sorry.
Hi Joseph Locke... Just noticed your quoted statement here. I have re-read the local press article you linked to. I was present at the meeting when NR was asked about the Middlewich line by Pete Waterman and the reply given is accurately quoted in the newspaper article.
