CREAM PREVAILS OVER RESIDENTS

Despite opposition from local residents and the neighbouring council, a three-hour meeting of Halton Council has approved Creamfield's application to relocate to Daresbury.

Solicitors for Cream told residents it didn't matter they'd hear the sound of the event after 11pm because it was "a one-off event"; people from the area will also be forced to use ID passes to come and go from their own homes ("However, organisers said this was to prevent festival-goers getting access to residential areas.") It'll be great practice, of course, for if there's ever an outbreak of anthrax in the middle of Runcorn. Although probably the Creamfields guards won't be shooting people trying to escape.
