Knutsford has grown a great deal but as a forgotten town as far as Macclesfield is concerned, we have a lot of trouble here most weekends, not always locals involved, we get thugs from Northwich and Altrincham coming in on the trains, but we don't see any police around the town when they are wanted.

I'm a pensioner myself, and Knutsford used to be lovely to go out and about in, but I do not go out at night, one thing being where I live we do not have transport up to the town from here, and we have to walk up to the shops, but we don't expect to be mugged and, of course, the thugs can get away down to the M6 without much bother.

I believe that we do not exist north of Watford Gap, the only time Tatton comes on the scene is at election times, after that, all is forgotten.

Please do something about our local police station and not have us depend on Wilmslow or Macclesfield - Knutsford does EXIST on the map and needs attention as soon as possible.
