Whats this nonsense? Be serious, you fool. Is Pritchard mayor or not? Is Britcliffe still the leader of HBC?

No.

She's struggling too.



Can we get back to you tomorrow, Wednesday, the actual day of the meeting?

It would probably be more useful, being accurate.

Which we will be able to...after the event.

Look garinda...get off this thread until you have something positive and serious to say. Get back with your bible-bashing chums. I've waiting here to phone some senior citizens back in Hyndburn with news of this council meeting so the sooner I hear, the better.

Good grief, the AGM is on Wednesday.

It hasn't happened yet.

Re: Councillor Britcliffe Called off the AGM

Just under 14 hours to go until my first walk-on part in Council AGM.

For those who have never made it, come and sit in the public gallery and just spare a few hours for some top flight free entertainment.

Re: Councillor Britcliffe Called off the AGM

Accrington Town Hall at 1.30pm. Walk into reception and just ask to be directed to the public gallery upstairs for the council meeting.

It does go on for about 3 hours and most people have had enough before the end but it will open your eyes to the reasons behind certain hostilities. You won't be disappointed and I venture you will even be astounded when you realise just how well spent your tax money is.

NOTE: There are many councillors on all sides who do a sterling job and the full council meetings are not indicative of the work they do in real life so just bear that in mind as the entertainment unfolds.

Re: Councillor Britcliffe Called off the AGM

On votes cast the Council is thirds. Three Tory seats though are bigger and elected every year. This skews the vote to th Tories a bit each year. By about 400 or 500.

I still think Labour is neck and neck or slightly ahead so the mandate the Tories have is not based on the popular vote. I think that belongs to the three independents and 14 Labour an would reflect feelings in the Borough.

Re: Councillor Britcliffe Called off the AGM

Apparently the road to the Town Hall is a bit like the road into Lourdes.

Hospital beds are being pushed along Blackburn Road.

People are being made to limp there on crutches.

The lame are being told to rise up and walk.

Wouldn't be suprised to see Lazarus, sat there this afternoon.

Custer's last stand ain't in it.
