Dave Mason is a level-headed councillor and seems to weigh up the pros and cons of most situations. Bear in mind that whatever quotes are given to the paper will be cited in a way that suits the article so that may just have been part of what he said.
Some people would agree that pushing the traders the extra mile to open six days is good for Accrington. I'm afraid I don't.
Cllr Ken Moss of Rishton said earlier today, 'Some people would agree that pushing the traders the extra mile to open six days is good for Accrington.'
I could've just provided a balanced quote there, even though it doesn't actually say what I believe to be true because it is out of context.
