Also if you know of anyone openly dealing drugs report them. I have, and the police acted on the information, so you're wrong there too.

well good for you but i did exactly the same thing and the police did not act on the info because the dealer was friendly with a councilller who regularly goes to the police to put in a good word for such thugs. thats whats wrong with accrington

If that's true I'll eat my hat.

Name the councillor.

I bet you don't.

Load of old rubbish. If there is corruption, there is always someone else you can go to. Your MP, or the press would be my first port of call.

So as well as knowing someone who was openly selling drugs, you uncovered a drug dealer/local councillor/local police corruption scandal, but did nothing about it?

Shame on you.

Go on, if what you say is true, name the councillor and I'll go to the press with it.

Yeah, stop moaning and actually do something about it.

Sorry Rindy, I misunderstood what you meant.

I'm all in favour of complaining and reporting things that need to be dealt with whatever they are.

One of my pet bugbears is rubbish. They must be sick of me phoning up with my complaints about that.

Spinner, if for some reason you don't have the strength of your convictions, or for some reason are too afraid to name here the corrupt local councillor, pm the name to me, and I'll post that you've done it, and I will then go to ther press with this sensational story.

[WillowTheWhisp]

If there is corruption in the council and police force Spinner it's a scandal which needs to be eradicated. Is this what you wrote to Greg Pope about?

I agree with garinda here spinner if you know of such corruption the only way to stop it is bring it out into the open...
