Re: Anyone made a secret Freedom Of Info request about me ? Andrew?
This is a something I asked Andrew to answer, when he sent me a private message earlier, but he doesn't appear to want to provide an answer.
Maybe you would like to tell me how Peter Britcliffe last year claimed Members Allowances of £27760.59 which is over twice as much as the highest paid member of Rossendale BC, when Hazel Harding (who is leader of LCC -which has a budget of millons of pounds and provide 72% of the services in Hyndburn and the other district councils in Lancashire) only had member's allowances of £39983.
Here is a link to LCC member's allowances for 2007 to 2008
http://www.lancashire.gov.uk/corpora...oc.asp?id=5295
The average household income in Church ward is £22K, it is obscene that Peter Britcliffe is claiming so much in allowances.
I would be interested in what thoughts the rest of you have about it.

Re: Anyone made a secret Freedom Of Info request about me ? Andrew?
Someone makes a flippant reference to relationships on the thread.. then someone makes a flippant reference to that remark and it all goes tit for tat and gets down to who wins the next General Election... love it! ... you'd have to declare a special interest in the question if in Parliment.. but this ain't Parliment.. great stuff.. keep it up

Perhaps that is because you have not yet retracted your incorrect statement about me.

Andrew for someone, who said that they were not going to contribute to this thread again (yesterday post 587) you have not stuck to your word.

I'm not afraid of dodging any questions.
However I will stick to the topic of transpareny in local politics, which is what this thread is about, because it's something I care passionately about.
If you're so desperate to know my views on national issues start a thread about it, and like I said if you're lucky I'll add my thoughts to it, after considering the thread's opening statement. Although personally I prefer discussing national issues on national, rather than local sites, because you get a wider participation, which I find more interesting.

They made this connection because i was honest enough to identify myself and again was naive new to the thread.

Yes but only two of you actually live in this country never mind Hyndburn, I refuse to even listen to anyone who starts giving his opinion on our local council no matter how good or bad it is.
