Re: Who is this man
A town's appearance is merely a reflection of the people who live and work there,we often blame councillors and their ilk for the state of the town.Yet how many of us would stop and pick up an item of litter that has nearly made its way to a waste bin?
I was surprised to learn that the unemployed is under 2000,sometimes on my visits to the centre it seems that there are that many loafing about the area.
Accrington's problems arent unique nearby Haslingden has nothing to reccomend it a pass through and expect to see tumbleweeds blowing down the roads!
Further afield Rawtenstall and Ramsbottom have utilised their Train Stations to create thriving tourist attractions.
Accrington has the ability to improve ,it is just lacking the neccessary will(and the odd £1,000,000).
As I've mentioned before the council has shot themselves in the foot by sacking the Warden's, so things I fear,unlike the song will only get worse!
