Britcliffe
It seems at last that Peter Britcliffe may realise that he is no longer in control of the town and the council chamber, and he will now have to abide by the rules of a democrativ council chamber, that he has so blatantly abused in the past. Perhaps its also about time that the councillors who do not like him and there are one or two, now stood up and decided that it is a change that the Tories have needed for a long time. Even Conservative Central Office were not keen on him and only one or two in his party were in enamoured of him. Perhaps it really is time that the rest of the party spoke out agains his dictatorial attitude.

Re: Britcliffe
speak to most people in town and you will realize how unpopular he is. If his fellow councillors truly spoke their minds then the rate payers of Hyndburn would be enlightened.

Other than in his ward, he yields very little power at present.
If you're not careful you'll be doing an Elvis on him.
Making him more famous in death, than he was in life.

Talk about rubbing salt in the wounds!
That'd be a very cruel present.
Having the wrong tense emblazoned on it.
