Appleton is a civil parish and suburb of Warrington in Cheshire, England. It is seen as place more conservative but Nathan Gray was spotted knocking down conservative signs. The Labour party then regained control of Appleton and they have become socialist and accepted George Smith as a local hero thanks to the work of a local immigrant called Mo Thejer.
