As for me causing you to spray everywhere, perhaps you should keep some tisssues handy next to your computer, to mop up anymore unfortunate emissions.

Perhaps his popularity doesn't travel much further than the St. Andrew's ward boundary.

We'll see what happens for a third time, now he's declared an interest in standing yet again....if he's selected.


You would have to be a total optimist to think any Tory would have won Hyndburn in either 1997 or 2001. As for his popularity Maybe it should spread further than St. Andrews Ward, its evident that he has got it right over many years and the people know this, If given the choice maybe the whole Borough would benefit, but there again the Tory's have run Hyndburn for the last ten years and are doing a first class job, not my words but those of the Audit Commission, If you keep listening to Jones Dawson and that nice lady from Clayton, you'll be as daft as they are

But the only actual proof of his popularity outside of his Oswaldtwistle ward, comes from when he stood to represent Hyndburn in the General Election, but was twice rejected.

The people of Hyndburn didn't elect him as the leader of the council, and besides a few die hard chums, he doesn't seem to have that much borough wide support evident on this forum.

Given the unpopularity of the government he's never stood a better chance than in the forthcoming election, and the party, both locally and nationally, must be very excited at the prospect of him standing a third time.

Like I said, there's never been a better time for Cllr. Britcliffe to become Peter Britcliffe M.P.

Your party must be thrilled at the certainty of the outcome....just as the people of Hyndburn must surely be too.

Never having met him, or spoken to him, I wouldn't know, though I fear you're turning into someone as paranoid and obsessive as Corporal Jones.

Running around wildly, sticking your bayonet hither and thither, looking for a perceived enemy, and shouting 'They don't like it up 'em!'



I think it's abot time you went and sat quietly in the corner with Private Godfrey, Jonesy old boy.

Whoops, meant Jaysay.

I'm only annoyed that here's now only two photographs, as opposed to the twelve of Peter and you, we had the other year.

I have met him a couple of times. I enjoyed our conversation in the Brewers very much. In fact I was hoping he was going to turn up at the last boozy session we had.

Awww, perhaps you could do a calendar together?

Pushing him on the swings, running through the daffodils together, playing hide-and-seek in the bushes.

Hang on, you've already done that with Peter.

I'm just glad they got rid of the tennis courts in Rhyddings Park, because there might have been an argument about which one of you was going to be the scratcher.

Re: Britcliffe monthly.

I believe Peter has had a letter from HQ saying he has not been accepted on the Conservative list as suitable. Don't know if he would be willing to confirm it. I don't think it fair. I think local members should decide and not Tory HQ. I am led to beleive the only local candidate is Janet Storey?
