So let's look at a couple of details on the Conservative leaflet and see if you want to answer them.
I'm looking at Brian Walmsley's leaflet right now - it says
"in 5 short years Conservatives have transformed Labours near-bankrupt council into one that we can all take great pride". Can you please justify the phrase 'near-bankrupt'? What basis is that claim made on?
Energy saving grants - big deal made about this yet isn't this a government initiative which last time I checked was still Labour, so is this Conservative Council claiming credit for something the Government has introduced?

Your first point Gayle, 65 yers ago HBC were had a black hole of about £1.8 million caused by the Labour Party when in office, only around 4 months ago the Audit commision gave the council a clean bill of health
your second point Energy saving grants were brought in by the Tories in Hyndburn of a certain age group an had nothing to do with the government
