Funny?
Evidence suggests they find it otherwise.

So what's your point?
Is it that the population of Hyndburn are inherently republican, with a political strain lying somewhere between Cromwellian puritism and the mad mullahs of Iran?
Is it that the population of Hyndburn is not prepared to take part in a celebration that will invariably boost the national economy?
Is it that Hyndburn has finally acknowledged that it is a third-world borough, on a par with some of the poorer towns on the Indian sub-continent, and so can't afford a little knees-up?
Answers, please.
