Could someone please explain why it is neccessary for elected councillors to spend time pounding the streets shoving junk mail through respectable peoples' front doors?
Surely if this is the best defence that Hyndburn councillors can come up with, then the sooner they are reduced in number, the better.

It isn't 'the best defence I can come up with' and the 86 phone calls I've had from the Christmas card drop asking for help over the festive period prove to me that it was a worthwhile exercise. Giving people a list of helpful telephone numbers along with a reminder of how to get in touch is 'junk mail' yet you complain bitterly that you only ever see us at election time - how do I prove my worth then?
It's blatantly obvious that you don't have a clue about how myself and Cllr Grayson work in Rishton and there is considerably more to being a councillor than 'junk mail' as you put it.
For the record, which ward are you in?
