But seriously the Tories were in just the same position as Labour are now back in the 90s and there is no way would we ever put out leaflets without indicating the Party or without a Logo, which ever way you look at it is just a tad dishonest, you should never be ashamed of the party you represent. Who's the best candidate? Well to me its the one that actually lives in the town. I can remember in he 90s when we had Labour councillors foisted on us from the peoples republic of Spring Hill, there were 8 Labour councillors in all and Ossy got nout

Incidentally if Dorothy wins next Thursday the Council will go from a Tory controlled council, to no overall control.

Well that's funny because all our leaflets are taken from the same template, and as for no overall control you lot will lie and cheat to try and make it happen, your just a bunch of Political Carpetbaggers

That could be why the people of Hyndburn, who don't live in Oswaldtwistle, i.e.the vast majority, have twice rejected your little chum Britcliffe in General Elections.;)

Round and round in circles we go on this point, you ignoring the fact that there are many Tory councillors sitting on our council who are also Carpetbaggers.

carpetbagger (plural carpetbaggers)

1. (politics, chiefly US) A candidate who runs in a district where he or she has not previously held residence.

At least Dorothy was born and bred in Oswaldtwistle !

Funny, but I still do appear to have a great leaning towards Peel Park Ward, where I was born and bred, rather than the Clayton-le-Moor's one where I have now lived for the past 45 years. :confused:

Well, would feel that I had justification to care about the people there in improvements to an area that gave me so much. :p

Anyway, will be nice to you today seeing as it's your birthday ... :D
