secondly do you know just how many councillors DONT claim any expenses ???

It is quite easy to find out which councillors are claiming extra allowances, such as childcare by doing a FIO request.

For anyone who accuses me of claiming anything I am not entitled too - in the 2009 to 2010 year I claimed £5489.88 - which was my basic allowance + an allowance for being Labour Group secretary and a IT allowance (because unlike some councillors I pay for my own broadband and use my own PC and printer - rather than HBC providing me with the facility).

As I am chair of Church and Central Area Management Board I was entitled to claim £742 as chair but did not claim this and the money went to the Area Management Board.

I did not claim any mileage allowances and the only train fare I claimed was £38.65 for a return trip to London (when I attended a one day conference -paid for out of Graham Jones training budget). I went to Manchester twice and Preston once on training courses but did not claim the rail fare for any of these journeys, neither did I claim for any meals when I went to London.

To be quite honest Joan, I think the people representing the people of Hyndburn should not be one penny out of pocket, there was a time when councilors received nothing but thank you for their efforts, things have moved on since those days and I for one think its not always for the better

All you have done so far is come on here claiming some form of wrong doing without the decency of having any proof.

You hint at who this 'despicable' person may be, indeed you are getting bolder now you inform us it's a he, that he is also a County Councillor and that he has a 15 year old daughter, unfortunately like so many of your ilk you aren't man enough to name names, I wonder what this poor chap did to upset such a vindictive little man as you?
I suggest once more that if you actually have any proof go to the authorities don't come on here spreading your disgusting innuendos.

If your communications with HBC are anything like your posts I doubt that they can properly understand any request you have put forward, so you will I hope be in for a long wait.

No. You are more than that.

The way you have gone about things, on a forum that is usually a fairly hostile environment, for the councillor you presumably refer to, if has succeeded in uniting everyone in their defence.

Jolly well done.

A miracle.

You should be given an audience with the Pope, St.Malicious.
