If any benefit can be gained from utilising any of the methods stated then I say well done.
Get a life Ken and find something else to do except slag PB and the Tories - IMHO you are typical of all opposition politicians. Criticise the party in power but never let on what you are prepared to do.
You may not realise it but you are fast becoming a pain in the posterior, for many people.
Your distaste for me has already been noted, Barrie. That is certainly nothing new.

I couldn't be more blatant about what I would be prepared to do and in another thread today I have stated how I would happily risk disfavour among the few by making ruthless cuts for the benefit of the many.

I have not used the word 'waste' with regard to this classroom project, all I have said is that is sounds like rather expensive and I would be interested to see the long term cost comparisons. By all accounts the majority of the money is coming from the private sector anyway but it still doesn't alter my curiosity.

If I am becoming a pain in the backside to 'many' people then so be it. I did not become a councillor to be everybody's best friend, I became a councillor to do the best for the borough and as far as I can see that partly involves making sure the voters get value for money.

You may agree with money is spent in Hyndburn and I'm clearly not going to change your mind but until the balance of power shifts then I am by definition likely to be 'opposed' to it.

Discuss.
