It seems that the MEN group is closing offices in Wilmslow, and the front desk of the Macc Express in Macclesfield.
This is a serious disappointment.
This is a paper which has complained about the decline of Macclesfield Town Centre - and it's now pulling out of there itself.
On one hand I'll be slightly annoyed if we don't see photos of the closed up express in the paper - just like we've seen the bate hall and the three pigeons complex.
However, I know a lot of the staff that work at the paper and I know that this wouldn't be what they want. The editor is a true local champion and I would imagine that he has had to make a serious compromise between commercial rocks and his personal hardplace values.
It's just a shame that one of our last bastions of localism is steadily dripping away.
Perhaps we should for a Macclesfield co-operative and buy it out?
