Internationalist approach at H.B.C.
Good to know the council are spending their valuable time, trying to sort out the problems we have here in Hyndburn.
UK City Council supports ‘Kashmiris' Right to Self determination’ | GroundReport :rolleyes: Perhaps at the next full meeting of the council, we'll be declared a nuclear free zone, or it's decided that we're going to be sponsoring a Save The Whale programme in Nicaragua. :mosher: Nice to note we've been awarded city status though. :rolleyes: Still, as long as they have their priorities in order, that's all that matters. :o |

Yeh can't expect tory councillors to know the difference.:rolleyes:

No doubt, as a gesture, HBC will provide benches in some city centres so the poor impoverished citizen can lest their weary legs while out shopping;)

Was there a rider to the HBC resolution supporting Kashmiri independence, to the effect that it doesn't apply on Wednesday afternoons?

Yes, sod the abundance of empty shops in Hyndburn, and alcoholics being allowed to carry on supping in a drinks free zone, where do we stand on the defeat of the Tamil Tigers' fight for an independent state in Sri Lanka?
These are the sort of issues upmost on most residents' minds. That we'd much prefer our local councillors were busy addressing. |

Shoulder pads, Jason Donovan, ra-ra skirts, loony left councils.
Yes, the eighties are back. |

We should all be concerned about the reasons for this

Ironically Rule Brittania is now being played at the Cenotaph.

I think they should change the word to 'Fool Britannia'....because I think that is what the world really thinks of us.

When are Hyndburn Borough councillors going to broker a peace deal, between the various warring factions? |
Re: Internationalist approach at H.B.C.
This is the full text of the motion submitted to and passed by the council on 10th November:
"..That this Council supports the Kashmir community here in Hyndburn in condemning the atrocities committed and acts of barbaric violence by Indian Forces in Indian occupied Kashmir which has resulted in women been gang raped, children lined up and shot dead in front of their parents, people been torched and set on fire in their jail cells. Over one hundred thousand people have been killed since 1989 and very recently Amnesty International has found a number of mass graves in Kashmir. All this is because the people of Kashmir want their right of self determination, the right which was recognised by the United Nations in 1948. To be moved by: Councillor Allah Dad To be seconded by: Councillor Peter Britcliffe 3. Dog.." Can anyone please point to any evidence of atrocities committed by Indian Forces in Kashmir? The only atrocities that I am aware of committed in that region over the last few years are those committed by Pakistani and Afgan nationals. So exactly what are the members of HBC doing passing motions such as this? It is ignorant, ill conceived and ill thought out and is no more than an electoral sop the local Pakistanis for their votes. I do wonder, though now that HBC has a foreign policy, will we get an army? We may well certainly need some nuclear weapons because I am quite certain that Accy's name is now dirt in the corridors of power in New Delhi and you never know, some of those Indian nukes may well be aimed at us as well as Pakistan |
