I'd heard there was going to be some mention of the demise of Hyndburn but I forgot to watch. Come to think of it - it might have been Granada Reports!

I'm afraid libel laws mean I have to resist telling the world what I think :(

Hyndburn Borough Council won't be able to sue you, as they'll no longer exist, to persue you through the courts.

According to this weekend's Observer, Graham Jones supports the planned change.

So who is to weild the big axe then? If they dont have someone will there be a raffle or lottery to decide? I might be free for a while and if supplied with enough spray paint will willing start changing the signs. :D

Do they ever actually stop to find out what the majority of people think before they start wasting our money?

No, thought not. (Now where have I heard that phrase before? :D)

Well the Accy Observer site is showing 56% for and 44% against - that to me looks close enough to warrant a full consultation with locals.

Just a thought is this the same council that cares so much about ACCRINGTON that they pulled the sponsorship of the town's football team?????

Re: Hyndburn to be axed.
 
I think we should have an AccyWeb poll.

I wouldn't put it past this council to declare the Observer poll to be an overwhelming majority - I wonder if those who voted in favour have actually considered the knock on effect and repercussions?

Credit where credit is due, I sent them an e-mail the other day and I have had a letter back this morining finally clearing it all up. Just a shame the telephone service is a bit pointless if they have neither the common sense or authority to make decisions :(

One curious thing about the poll in the Accy Obs - it was at 46% Yes and 54% No on Sunday evening when I cast my vote. When I had another look mid morning on Monday it had suddenly switched to favour the Yes option. Strange methinks.
