Plus more people would probably vote than they do in the elections, so it would be more democratic.

Something tells me he might have better things to do with his time
I agree with the first bit. It's nice when people can have the banter and get on!

Great idea garinda. But I am sure Graham Jones would be leader of the council, as he is face is much nicer than Peter Britcliffe's.
If more people attended the Council, Cabinet and other meetings, they would see just how badly Peter Britcliffe behaves. He fails to appreciate that not everyone in Hyndburn agrees with him (too put it politely).

Re: "Silly Cow" Poll
I am rather interested in Grahams comments that HBC is more corrupt than people might realise. I have no dificulty accepting that Graham is a decent and honest man. Certainly his constituents seem to speak very highly of him, in the main. If that is the case then perhaps it is time that he did us all a favour and let a few of the cats out of the bag.
I am available through PM if you would prefer a more discrete tete-a-tete.

Re: "Silly Cow" Poll
I think I'd be an EXCELLENT politician, I'm biased, I lie, I am modest... well I did say I lie, and I don't really care about the people of Accrington, I just want to have something to whinge about.
