Objections to the Conservative policies in Hyndburn generally boil down to a lack of common sense, and I include some of the comments from the Independent group in there as well. I'll state yet again that all 35 of us are here primarily to serve the borough but 17 of that number seem to be under the illusion that public money is there to win popularity. We aren't here to look good, we aren't here to be everyone's best friend and we aren't here to splash money around while everyone else is being hammered and then blame 13 years of another government.

This was not the most effective way to use that money and it did not benefit as many people as it could have done. I'm not simply having what might be considered to be a Tory bash, I'm saying it how it is.
Next year at this time the sheep could well be wearing diverent clothes, but nothing will have changed and if you think any different your living on cloud cuckoo land
