It seems to be the season of ill will regarding people who use their job to make this world a slightly better place. I have seen both Panopticons and think both are a worthwhile addition to both landscapes. It really rags me off that people on this website do virtually nothing but spout on and on about how awful everything is and how everything is a waste of public money blah blah blah.

Mid pennine's scheme to give us things that provoke discussion has apparantly worked, HOWEVER the vast majority of people who post on here just slag off Gayle and the panopticon schemes as it's an easy target.

If we didn't have things of this ilk the world would be a much duller and sadder place irrespective of whether you like them or not.

I, for one, will continue to support Mid Pennine (and Gayle) in their endeavours to make this world brighter.
