A councillor has denied calling people “Tory beach activists” at a fiery meeting over Hoylake Beach.
Cllr Liz Grey, who chairs the council's Environment committee, was responding to a question over past comments from a member of the Hoylake Beach Community, a campaign group that has been seeking for vegetation to be cleared there since 2019.
The row over the beach which has divided the town of Hoylake continues, as Wirral Council develops two options for how the beach will be managed in the future before going back to the public for a final vote.
