Try more bureaucrats, more taxes, more left and right hand, more tree's needing felling and plenty of extra fuel for hot air balloons. The politics show last week ran a good article about the rise of people protesting at more government. Parish Councils put Council Taxes up 200% it said.
It is easy to see how people in Great Harwood will end up subsidising HBC. Give them autonomy, give them back their services such as Great Harwood baths. Subsidised and uneconomical. And anything else that's a burden. Let the Town Councillors put that on the local rates for the people of Great Harwood. Sit back and gather votes for giving (false) independence. That's what The Council is thinking.
