Ok Jaysay, I agree that the people of St Andrews have elected him for the 8th time. However it is the rest of the population of Hyndburn who also have to suffer him. When I was canvassing for Labour (I canvassed in every ward by the way) in the local election in May, the comments about him on the doorstep were less than complimentary to say the least, and before you ask - no I did not bring his name up - it was the people I was canvassing who mentioned him first.
The Man is an embarrassment to both his Party and the Borough.
I notice that you haven't made any comments about the rest of my posting - maybe Peter is in denial about the sorry state of low cost and rented accommodation in this borough. He probably thinks they are not worth the effort, as they are not potential Tory voters.
What we need in this borough are jobs that pay a decent living wage, and affordable good standard housing for everyone. How does Peter propose to curb the landlords who charge exorbitant rents for appalling housing. Or does he feel it is ok to 'screw' the poorest members of our society - it probably keeps them in check and they know their place. After all we should all look up to the Tories - they were born with the divine right to rule us and keep us subservient to them, maybe we should be touching our forelock and bowing to Peter.
