Blackpool South MP Gordon Marsden has waded in to the row over  a planning application which could see elderly caravan residents made homeless.

Garage forecourt firm Rontec wants to build a drive through coffee shop behind its Esso garage on Preston New Road where Windmill Caravan Park has stood since the 1940s straddling the Blackpool and Fylde councils boundary.

Blackpool Council’s planning committee is to discuss it today but officers have recommended it be allowed.
