So, Peter "I'm worth every penny" Britcliffe, is attempting to use the limited amount of clout he has at his disposal to line his own pocket at the expense of the taxpayer? And we are expressing not shock, horror and outrage, but mild amusement?

I cannot say that the antics of the Idiot-in-Chief come as anything of a surprise. Anyone who can consistently mislead the electorate in the way Britcliffe has done over the last few years is capable of anything. It strikes me that far from heaping criticism on Gayle and Graham, we should be directing our invective against the single biggest cause of Hyndburns woes; Councillor Peter Britcliffe, who, if memory serves, is compelled to stand for re-election next week. If I were a voter in St. Andrews' ward, I know where my vote would not be going.

It is high time that Britcliffe and all his shabby fellow travellers were shown the door, they are a disgrace to the party that they claim to represent and an affront to the people who elected them.
