I once saw a stripper in Hamburg doing something very similar.
The last time I heard from Greg Pope he was watching the Rovers at the cottage last Saturday, he does a good running commentary on FaceBook

No. There's absolutely no way of knowing how many people had come especially for the 'community art' flash mob event.

Looked fairly normal as to number of people to me, for that time on Broadway on a Saturday afternoon. Don't you think?



You very nearly would have been able to say 402, until I told the person I was with how much it had cost.

In response to "clicker" thing that counts footfall, they use it in the Arndale as well ,and it's totally inaccurate, counts people who just walk thru and don't spend and probably now looks like it's even busier as people flock to the Arndale toilets instead !

We need to find out if the first group is independent of the second group of Independents and if perhaps they aren't are they independent enough? Or, have these independents now become a break away group of independents from themself?
Also, if they are truly independent no point voting for them as they could never work together, these people tend to be loners and like their independence.

Confused? so am I, that's the problem when you are just one individual attempting to understand none-party Politics, you have no-one to turn to for advice.
Apparently, the Independents decision to form a group came about as it then allows the council to give them seats on the various committee's, just as the Labour Group and Conservative Group can.

Re: Full Council - 1st & 9th March
The balcony interview was Peter and I with Annabell Tiffin for Sundays politics show. It's been a year since we last debated.

Ms Tiffin remarked at the beginning that a good old interrupting debate would help. I said it wouldnt and she'd regret giving the green light to arguing. At the end she did though she said it was a cracking interview.

I am not sure. Doing an interview with Peter isn't easy. Topic 1 HMR, 2 PCP, 3 Big Society.

Primary Capital Programme, which I think helps with extra funding for schools.

It could be a debate about the post-coital pill, but I doubt it.

or have you already worn it out ?
