Mr Williams said he would also look at speeding on Bermuda Road and Saughall Massie Road.

But he drew the ire of one voter, student Bob Sutton, who told him: “I think a politician who says he’s not into politics is even more worrying.”

Jim McGinley spoke of the Green Party’s efforts in Kirklees where free cavity wall and loft insulation is provided and 15% of electricity need is met by solar energy.

He noted that Wirral Council has no Green representative, adding that others usually follow once the first seat is achieved.

Alec McFadden told those assembled he would move to return bin collections to a weekly cycle, create a youth club on every estate and scrap tunnel fees.

Revenue demands would be met by increased taxation, he said.

Voters asked questions about improved youth provision and the council’s use of consultants, among other topics.

Polls open on Thursday at Christ Church Primary, Moreton Community Centre, Foxfield School, St Mary’s Church Centre and the Grange pub car park.
