No wonder then that if this is what passes for political debate in Accrington that the investment bankers go unpunished and the rest of us pay for their greed. Thanks for the opportunity to hear your views they have been very revealing.

I don't think you're going to recruit many to the great workers' uprising. You seem to have a an excellent ability to rub people up the wrong way by talking down to them.

Re: The Tories

Hello, I freely admit that I have a tendency to irritate people I think that is largely down to a genetic predisposition to Lancashire plain speaking. If my comments have caused you or anyone else real discomfort the I apologise unreservedly, however I do like to stimulate debate.
I can assure you that I am no clown or DH (as another poster has suggested) but I do reserve the right not to agree with everyone for a quiet life or to gain popularity. And for the benefit of the previous poster I was chosen for redundancy partly because I have had serious health problems recently (although I can't prove that) and my career in the NHS hopefully bears testament to my commitment to others.

Plenty of Lancashire plain speaking on here and you've been on the receiving end of some of it. However, your pompous, hectoring tone ("for God's sake wake up") does your cause no favours at all. It may come as a surprise to you, but ordinary folk don't like being talked to like that.

It isn't a case of being talked to...it is a case of being talked at.
That is something that will neither win him friends or influence.

We are all entitled to our opinion...and some of us have spent a long time acquiring our opinions...but for you to take three years to decide what we all are, and what we are about is just a bit arrogant.....but I don't expect you to agree with that either......and beware, tossing out contentious statements in a drive to stimulate discussion could be seen by some as 'trolling'......do we feed trolls?
