God yeah.

Forgot about those times.

You mean like when Labour councillors were queueing up to post on here, to rubbish the then Tory controlled council...

but try as we might, you could never coax a word out of them, about what the then Labour government might be up to, both nationally and internationally, because they said that was nothing to do with them...

they were local politicans, concerned only with local issue?

How times change.

Even if it was £1000 fine they have no one to do the fining. One dog warden for the whole of Hyndburn is not enough!

The current £75 is enough but we need to see many people being fined to deter the others.

Doggy plop-plops not binned?

No one to impose the fines?

Take away the rights a mut has to sit on the borough's public dog benches.

Crap solution, big success.

The proposed £1000 fine demonstrates clearly to me, how stupid things have become locally, n i used to slag Britcliffe.

I think that Enviro Health officers venture out on surreptitious patrols in problem areas.

I have seen many much smaller fines fer offences of physical harm to people,plus many other things, i agree the £75 is adequate if they prosecute enough, people would be picking their dog crap up. this is another example of how this council has somehow become remote from the people in my view.

Prosecuting people is no good for HBC from what I have been told.

If its an on the spot fine paid by the offender the money goes to HBC.
If it goes to court and the offender is fined the money does not go to HBC.

If thats the case nowt wrong wi having a purge wi on the spot fines,theres enough dog crap around to warrant extra staff in my opinion.

Depends if Hyndburn Borough Council are more interested a Kashmiri bull, or a Hindu cow.

My money's more-on the Kashmiri bull.
