OK so we are getting some projects funded in Accy, I mean, yeah you can tell its worth it by the way Accy has been revitalised and is a thriving hub of industry and commerce that attracts businesses from all over the world, but how much does the funding come to?...a thousand, ten thousand pounds...what? I see there are grants available but where are the schemes that make people who visit Accrington say "WOW look at Accrington now it fantastic", rather than "bloody hell more big name shops and pubs shutting and more pound and charity shops opening"

Someone must be getting rich and benefitting from these turbines and it certainly aint me or, I suspect, no one else in Accy. If these things are not efficient where does the money coming from?
