Did anyone read the quote from Cllr Britcliffe in this week's Observer? He apparently said,

“Councillors do not have good records of running businesses which is why we are letting the professionals do it”. He was talking about the plans to let a large outside company run the Market Hall.

What is the Council if it is not a business with a £10million budget? What else is the Council elected for but to run the business of Hyndburn? Perhaps this goes some way to explaining why our Council run by the Conservatives is continually in debt, if it is run by people who are not professional enough to run it.
