SOUTHPORT, 4.30PM, 30/10/17 Maddy Roddan, 20, Southport: I think childcare needs to be more affordable. And there should be more graduate positions for graduates. And they should be kept on. Helen Moore, 71, Southport: I think the most important issue at the moment is the coalmine. We don’t need a coalmine. We don’t need to destroy the environment to get jobs. Brian Cabanough, 52, Pacific Pines: Jobs in all sectors. Well, there’s lots of people out of work.
