Re: Conservative candidate named.
'Raising the Inheritance Tax threshold to £1 million.'
The Conservative Party | Policy | Where we stand | Economy
Estimated house price £352,456.00
Property details for 11 Wildings Lane Lytham St. Annes FY8 3RJ - Zoopla!
At least some people, and their neighbours will benefit from the proposed Conservative tax changes.
Though it probably won't affect too many of us here in Hyndburn, who'll have to pay for these changes through cuts in services.
A case of give and take.

Some will be paying more than others.

Good, let us begin.
Just imagine for a moment that you could see things as they actually are. Let's call that imagined state of mind 'reality'.
You are no longer influenced by blind party loyalty to anyone, and have no complicated political allies, which cloud, and blinker the world around you.
Now your in this new state, slowly read through this thread, starting around post 408.
http://www.accringtonweb.com/forum/f...-49671-28.html
Trying to keep fresh this new experience, of open-mindedness realism, can you see how perhaps that it's actually others, others close to you, who might have the ability to 'twist' the truth, to put it incredibly politely, and not in fact myself?

Garinda I don't have enough of my life left to waste it on playing silly little games, I'm more interested whether I wake up in the morning or not

Jaysay, I was rather hoping that your implication that I was a bare faced liar, was indeed one of your silly little games, and that hopefully you didn't mean it, because it sort of contradicts what you've said about my integrity in the past.
Guess I was wrong.
It appears there's more than one person capable of 'twisting' what's real, if you can have two such vastly opposing opinions about something, which in this case is my truthfulness.

Its not your truthfulness I have the problem with its like I've always said if it quacks like a duck and waddles like a duck it usually is a duck, you keep talking the talk and walking the walk what else am I to assume

Well hopefully believe that I don't tell lies, and realise that when I say I honestly don't know how I'm going to vote in the forthcoming elections, you'd take it at face value, instead of implying publicly that I'm a liar.
I wouldn't waste my time posting things I didn't believe to be true, unlike some.

Re: Conservative candidate named.
My friend's sister, who lives in Rishton, says the whole place is buzzing, because it appears that Rishton is 'the chosen place', and where the Conservative candidate has moved to.
There's excited talk about the house prices in the area benefiting from the association. Though personally I think they're all getting a bit giddy, because of the fabulous news.
Talk of importing sand, and making a beach at the sailing club, and even building a pier there, with trendy cafés, I personally feel is a little premature.
Apparently the residence isn't too far from where the last Conservative candidate, poor James Mawdsley 'lived'.
Perhaps she's just taken over his lease, or perhaps there's just an empty house in Rishton, kept especially for election times, for any visitor from outside the area who decides to stand in the election, and who need a place to rest their weary head, after a hard day's campaining.
Of course all this giddy gossip in Riston might prove to be just rumour, and wishful thinking, because as far as I'm aware no one has actually seen Ms. Buckley putting out the milk bottles on her front step, or hanging out her washing on the line.
Watch this space.

The village has come to life in a heady display of wilful exuberance, pockets are filled with coins and promisary notes as the shops sound the clarion call........OK, nobody knows about it.
We 'found out' a couple of days ago and, although nothing has actually been confirmed, it is understood that she is living in a rental property about 200 yards from my house. I don't have her alleged address or I'd pop round to wish her luck and I mean that sincerely as no one from her own party seems to be at all supportive.
