A row in Wirral has continued after the council's planning chief blasted a Conservative councillor for comments he claimed were 'just not true.'
A proposed development on Meols Drive was recently approved that would see the demolition of existing buildings and a single block of 10 apartments built. Despite a petition opposed to the application and all three local councillors against approval, it was voted through 9-2 with support from all parties.
The decision led to strong complaints from the area's Conservative councillors, who labelled it a 'travesty of natural common sense.'
