Because Cashy, they do not understand the phrase 'grow up'....It is an alien concept to them....and as for running Hyndburn properly (sigh)....I don't think they know how.

And as for this post from The Leaders Office....it makes it sound like this post is from one of the minions.
Why doesn't Peter Britcliffe have the cojones to come out and join the debate properly?

(just for the uninitiated, a douche is a cleansing procedure only possible in women)

Just a misspent youth, Margaret. Too much American TV with filthy humour.

So is this poster someone who is a mouthpiece for PB, or is it PB pretending to be someone who is a mouthpiece for PB?

Either way, it's pathetic.

Whatever Graham Jones's faults, at least he has the bottle to post on here, without this infantile charade. About time you did the same, Councillor Britcliffe.

Accrington councillor probed over street repairs (From Lancashire Telegraph)

Well said, Royboy39 for bringing this up, when are we going to get our elected representatives, doing what they are there for?

They are there to look after all of our interests and surely that includes their own?

Not separate from everyone that lives near him, but inclusive with what is good for everyone!

Come on P.B. if this is you stirring the mud again stop hiding and admit it, then try working for us all, not just your own political gain.

Re: Now...This is silly and a complete waste of time
 
What bugs me is that, as a town, Accrington is dying on its' arse. We may promote an excellent council, floral market town etc...... but, this does nothing to attract visitors to our town centre, or the rest of the town for that matter. The demographic of the population in Accy is generally poor and not able to spend lots of money on shopping and entertainment so in order to make any money, we should concentrate on pulling in punters from elsewhere.

Improvements need to be made on our streets and roads and in the areas surrounding the town centre. My mate used to come here for the market, but never bothers anymore because the Blackburn Rd area, despite the money being pumped into it, is what she describes as 'depressing'.

Instead of political point scoring and mud slinging by our council representatives, which is what Accrington people see displayed in the Observer on a weekly basis. Why don't our councillors see sense and start working together regardless of party, and try to improve our dying town in a practical way........... And I don't mean planting a few flowers and declaring us a 'floral market town' :rolleyes:
