I didn't actually realise that we could promise to renovate private homes as part of our election campaign. There's a loft conversion required at 9 Bridge Street that I know needs doing.

Here's one for the HBC reader to feed back to HQ: I've been told by the legal department that I am perfectly within my rights to film the count on election night.

Let's see how long it takes for some form of warning to be issued.

Just when you thought it was safe to go back in the water.

:eek:

:D

I'll amend that, it's actually £2m from the transitional funding.

The figure from the reserves is quite quite different....

Do you have to have a little lawyer, sat at your side, when you post now?

:rolleyes::D:p

Re: HBC -helping hand to first-time buyers.
 

So long as everything is above board on election night there shouldn't be any problem really, should there?

Re: HBC -helping hand to first-time buyers.
 

You never know who's waiting to twist your every word, do you?

On a completely different note, I understand that a Conservative leaflet in Great Harwood has been the cause of a legal dispute with the Independents.

'If you want things to get nasty.....' Those words were fired at me in full council and then a month later this happens.

Funny how karma works, isn't it?

Re: HBC -helping hand to first-time buyers.
 

No, there shouldn't.

TV crews quite legally film these events.

I think I'll put a tender in to do the costumes, and hair and makeup.

Time for some to dust off their muffs.

:rolleyes::D

Having sat through many an election count at Hyndburn Sports Centre, the thought of watching a re-run on video doesn't fill me with enthusiasm!:eek::eek:

Re: HBC -helping hand to first-time buyers.
 

You hoping a certain someone gets a few red dots, come May the fifth?

:rolleyes::D

Re: HBC -helping hand to first-time buyers.
 

Are we talking conversion here ? :rolleyes:

Re: HBC -helping hand to first-time buyers.
 

I was more picturing someone getting a bindi.

Being repeatedly jabbed on the forehead, and covered in red dots.

:D

Re: HBC -helping hand to first-time buyers.
 

Believe me, it will certainly only end up being the edited highlights.

For myself, I'm only interested in the Rishton result but who knows what might be worth capturing on the night?

Re: HBC -helping hand to first-time buyers.
 

Which doesn't happen believe me

Re: HBC -helping hand to first-time buyers.
 

It's looking like it could well be an interesting count this year.

I'll have to remember to put a tie on Ken.
