I SEE yet again that some people would rather the people of West Kirby, Hoylake and Meols wait longer for a fire engine than have a new station built on land that most people use to let their dogs foul on.

The letter last week in Globe Mailbox was wrong saying West Kirby fire station is "moving" - it is being closed down for good.

This means people in the area it covers would have to wait a lot longer for a fire engine to arrive from Upton.

Saughall Massie was identified as a place to locate a new station to cover both West Kirby and Upton equally.

As a resident of Hoylake I'm getting fed up of hearing people complaining about how the new station would look and their vastly exaggerated lies about noise and traffic as if they outweigh my concerns of whether I would still be alive by the time a fire engine arrived from Upton if I needed it.
