We need councillors who are interested in what the people of Hyndburn think. To abstain from voting for reasons not connected with the panopticon itself strikes me as somewhat irresponsible.

I take in board what you say. It was thought about. However Hyndburn if you hadn't noticed is going down the pan - £27m in debt now - and the issue isn't the Panopticons, and making a political show out of the Panopticons is not the answer to our problems. As I said. Britcliffe knew he'd suck a lot of people in with this issue rather than the budget. It is important to stay focused on priorities. Its hard but you have to be realistic.
