Cllr Andy Platt Standing up for Boothen, Penkhull, Stoke and West End
Where are our police?
The Tories promised us a replacement police post for Stoke town centre before they shut our police station in 2015. It never materialised. They shut it anyway. Stoke police station is now derelict.
Interestingly, for 5 years they have left up the road signs in the town centre directing you to the nearest police station. If you follow these signs to a real police station they would take you to Cannock which, according to Google Maps, is 41 km or 25 miles or 8 hours on foot!
