Watch that one. It will come back and haunt you during the year, especially if Labour gain power. The shortfall will be seen as your fault!

Fortunately we're all fully aware of where it will be said the blame lies, whoever takes control in May. The best course of action is to knuckle down and just get on with sorting it all out and it's something I look forward to being part of should control shift to Labour.
We currently have a council Leader who is desperate to cling on to power and will hand out everything we have in order to do that, not my idea of being careful with Hyndburn's finances and blatant electioneering with public money.
Every penny he hands out has come from us, our taxes are being used by Cllr Britcliffe to try and get councillors that you wouldn't necessarily vote for get elected.
Look to your own wards, see how much has been spent in recent years and see how much gets promised in the next month then question why it is happening and further question why it hasn't happened before.
