Are you aware of the irony of that statement?
We couldn't deliver grit to de-ice the roads because the roads were icy?
A borough-wide scheme which involved no extra effort on the part of the voters would have been far better, as it stands we have thousands of residents who have missed out on this overly-complicated exercise because they didn't live in the right ward.
We're back in the realm of common sense here. If you truly want to help everybody then you help everybody, you don't simply look after your own. I can only assume that Rishton and the other 'lesser' wards aren't high on the Conservative agenda. I'm afraid that all this political pettiness that you are obsessed with stems from political bias from the controlling group in the first place.
I'm sure someone somewhere will bring up past mistakes in order to justify this new one. Over to you, Jaysay....
