The £35,000 spent by HBC with no return has nothing to do with the ride. The ride is just an election gimmick for the stupid. PB makes out this is part of the great Accrington revival. Here's me thinking its a fairground ride. Will it make bull***t go faster?

Here's this weeks news. £600,000 NM project still down the toilet. Todays meeting the 469th in 18 months and we are still in position A. Even Kasparov had more moves this side of the Great Plague.

I dispise quangos. Elevate must have the biggest bank of answering machines, probably so some invisible people can claim their wheelbarrow wages [with expenses of course] at the taxpayers expense only appearing on odd occasions to give a powerpoint presentation on how well things are going through their kaleidoscope.

Demolition in Phoenix. No not a clipping from the Daily Sport [or Daily Mail or Daily Express!], it actually happened. The demolition in Pearl Street was because a great HBC officer put his foot down and kicked arse.

Oh and there's a little proposal, accepted in principle by PB for a 20 classroom school, community centre, sports comples and mosque on Blackburn Rd. Well he has to accept it with Central Ward having two Asian Conservative Councillors. Where would we be with two Labour Councillors in Central, oh thats right the Tories would be out and we could start running Hyndburn properly. An event that should merit an entry in the Doomsday Book.

Anyway back to vote rigging... in Hyndburn.... Shirley not [THINK about it you Labour critics!!!!!!] Its basic maths...

There's a lot of funny business going on but its proving it.

Had to laugh. Even PB is voting for Colgate Tony, says he's [PB] doing his bit to keep the Conservatives in control in Hyndburn. Tony being the biggest vote winner for PB and Tory cronies having a Labour Govt. [Obviously doesnt think much of the electorate's intelligence or his own policies?]. Mind you there are some Conservatives [Thats with a big C or BNP] on AccyWeb who would struggle to work out what comes first, the cart or the horse.

And the biggest laugh of all... He explanied "After listening to the Labour Party Cllr Britcliffe Wardens are to be expanded throughout the borough [Labour has funding for 24], espcially good news for Rishton" he emphasised [ouch!!! did it hurt that much Peter!!].

Great News!!!

er... not so great..... It transpires...The 6 wardens funded till next year [6 have been given redundancy] will still work the 4 poor wards. 2 more have been saved making 8. well no, the poor wards still have 6, they have been misled. The other 2 are for the rest of the Borough, 11 wards. So good news, you might meet your new warden in your area sometime before 2012.

But fear not. They are moving Area Council funding to fund Wardens. [Background Info: Labour is to withdraw all funding from Area Councils to fund wardens]. Yes your right. One of the 2 officers who carries a mike during the meeting is to put on a flourescent jacket and patrol around the buidling for an hour.
