Can it be a coincidence that the Council has managed to find the 'match' money a few months before a certain Councillor is up for re-election.
Good for Rhyddings Park, and for Oswaldtwistle, but what do other residents feel about the £100,000 found by HBC in Brtitcliffe's home town when the rest of the Borough's parks are in such a poorly maintained state?
