Perhaps, but not enough to stand up to an ethnic minority councillor who you considered to be blatantly "electioneering". You claim that the Kashmiri motion couldn't simply be thrown out. OK, I can accept that. But what was there to stop you voting against the motion, or simply abstaining?

Red sky at night, Bob's house on fire at the other end of Rishton.....see how his anger burns!

Well, you are proving to be a bigger bitch than both of them combined!

Put forward something worthwhile or else refrain from commenting at all, you made more sense while you were away.

Fair point, but when in Full Council you sometimes have to weigh up the bigger picture in Hyndburn. It might not affect Rishton but that particular motion had relevance to residents of my counterparts in several other wards, such as Central and Springhill. As a representative of Hyndburn I wasn't against it and I am vehemently opposed to abstaining unless it is absolutely necessary (which it rarely is).

It seemed like a tactical motion brought to council in order to show that the Conservatives are dead keen on Kashmiris. I may be wrong. However just because something doesn't affect me doesn't mean that I automatically vote against it. I have put up several motions and questions which single out Rishton but my colleagues have still voted for them.

As I have said before, I don't look forward to international motions at Full Council again.

Have we not exhausted this topic yet? There really is nothing more to say.

No Less, we're just going down the same route as before.

I am asked a question, I respond.

Said questioner disregards my answer and keeps labouring the question over and over.

I am endeavouring to make Accyweb 'fun' for myself so that I never leave again.....

See, Bollicktiks makes you miserable, well it certainly does most folk. Do a Francesco (Schettino) & bail while there's still lifeboats about.

Sorry, fall overboard to avoid going down with the Ship.

You're having a go at me for voting in favour of something that I wasn't inherently against. It took about five minutes to deal with and it wasn't even my motion. I have better things to worry about than something I glossed over several months ago.

We can't just throw something out because we don't like it.

Take it up with the Conservatives for bringing it to Council in the first place.

Nah, it's quite fun being a councillor. It's less fun when people simply hear words instead of listening.

I have a tankard of Shepherd Neame here, cushioning the blow of a two hour meeting tonight.

My appreciation of ale has rocketed since May 2010.....

I know, I know.....I'm on emergency reserves at the mo. The crate of Moorhouses Blonde Witch was 'destroyed' at the weekend, one of the best beers of all time.

However, this is easily my favourite ale:

Loweswater Gold - Cumbrian Legendary Ales

Regrettably, the only thing left in the Rishton Towers cellar now is a bottle of Old Dan.

Ouch.

A horrible Tykey person gave me some Copper Dragon (Pippin) the other week & considering it comes from the wrong side of the moors it was OK.

You only seemed to have fun on here, whilst in opposition.

Attacking the then leader, and the ruling party on the council.

No one on here has viciously attacked you, or any of your colleagues, as you revelled in your assaults on them.

On this forum people have always grumbled when our politicans do something stupid.

They will continue to do so, whoever's in power, and whether politicans choose to come on here, and use Accy Web, for whatever reasons...or not.
