EVERTON FC’s proposed move to Kirkby triggered an extraordinary spat between warring Labour MPs in the House of Commons chamber.
Rosie Cooper, the West Lancashire MP, condemned the fast-tracking of compulsory purchase orders (CPOs) in the town centre – revealed last week – as “legalised bribery”.
The MP, a long-standing opponent of the £400m project, also urged ministers to step into what she branded a “disastrous scheme”.
