Don't knock it till you've tried it. Anyway, at your age the damage is hardly likely to be noticable.
A damaged ram I could cope with.
If they think I'm going to be some sort of Trojan horse, they've another thing coming.
No way.
Do you not have a seat then?
I don't know.
I'm that much of a secret weapon, that it's being kept secret from me too.
I see, they've got you under wraps then have they? Greased up, stripped down and raring to go.
Yes, the secret's up.
If the noise from the rucksack they've strapped to me, stops tickin'...RUN!
Well our Kenny mentioned the upcoming local elections, now in the run up to taking control of the council last May, the cry from Mossy and confederates was they were only interested in local issues, they had no time for anything south of Whitebirk. Well I think it will be a racing cert that when their leaflets drop on the mat behind your door they will be crammed to the hilt with anti government diatribe, with very little about HBC and of course the cursory message from our man in Westminster
We'll see, although I doubt it, there's more than enough to talk about in Hyndburn.
What original gems will be on this year's Conservative leaflets? Car parking charges (that's been a good one since 1999), death taxes, money given to Asians, allotment rent increases (anywhere between 200% and 700% depending on who is speaking), not forgetting the 'will put up council tax' routine.
The occasional policy would be nice to hear.
You can't even get your spiteful criticism right the car park charges have been on the agenda since 1995 not 99
and I still stick by my original statement
Yesterday the fragrant Ken attempted to encourage the non-voters by implying that Local politics was interesting and exciting. Judging from his post of 7:45 this morning, as far as I can see it is more of the same old twaddle I have been hearing from both sides since I was old enough to have an opinion. Every time an election is in the offing we are treated to the same tired old garbage. The other side will make it more expensive, they will put up the rates, they have no policies we are the best thing since sliced bread etc.etc. on and on.
For crying out loud, Ken, give it a rest and change the bluddy record.
It is hardly surprising that 30% of the electorate don't vote. Indeed the only surpise is that the figure isn't higher. Tit-for-tat arguments are meant for the playground and political d*ck waving is not an acceptable substitute for mature, reasoned debate.
Have you learned nothing from the Britcliffe era?
And before you start whining on about vitriol and ridicule, you might profitably reflect on what it is about your performance and the performance of your colleagues that might give rise to such a response; though you will forgive me if I don't hold my breath while we wait.

Yes, just where does Hyndburn Borough Council stand on the Kashmir question?
These are the real burning issues, local people are just crying out to be answered.
It's nice to see you two have kissed and made up, launching a join salvo on the people formally identified as the villains of the piece, namely HBC. Perhaps now you could take time out to read what people post in response to your questions.
Gary, I have already given my stance on that. For further info, please see Cllr Allah Dad, it was his motion.
Bob, read what I wrote again and scale down your righteous indignation by several million degrees.
Red sky at night, Bob's house on fire at the other end of Rishton.....see how his anger burns!

Sorry Jay, my mistake!
Left out 'hitting the most vulnerable in society' as well.
It's a wonder I can show my face some days....
Oh I wasn't expecting a reply.
I was told you'd been warned not to.
I was just musing.
Pondering.
Shooting the breeze.
It's something us ordinary members happily do on here.
Now Accy Web is virtually a politico free zone.
Thanks, though.
I took your advice, well the bit about reading anyway and came across this, posted on 5/2/12.
"Those who know me are well aware I hate anything PC"
Perhaps, but not enough to stand up to an ethnic minority councillor who you considered to be blatantly "electioneering". You claim that the Kashmiri motion couldn't simply be thrown out. OK, I can accept that. But what was there to stop you voting against the motion, or simply abstaining?
I care little for christianity, but the bible is a mine of useful quotes. One of my favorites is this...Mathew (7:20)
"Wherefore by their fruits shall ye know them"
The other one concerns balances and being weighed

Put forward something worthwhile or else refrain from commenting at all, you made more sense while you were away.
