I didn't say anything different. He won two elections, and served as M.P. for Hyndburn 1983-92.

Personally I thought Ken Hargreaves did a good job for the borough, and is a good man, though I never voted for him. He helped me, after my grandma asked him to, and managed to get me some money owed to me whilst I was a student in Liverpool. The city at the mercy of the loony left at the time, under Derek Hatton.

I'll agree about Greg Pope though.

Thankfully Hyndburn came to their senses well before the rest of the country did '97'.
