Ya you could almost guarantee 20 posts a day on how the council was being mismanaged, and a new thread everyday on Britcliffe bashing, but now

Re: Internationalist approach at H.B.C.
So can I suggest a new image to represent what the voters of Rishton can expect when they approach their elected councillor.

Re: Internationalist approach at H.B.C.
Have you tried PM-ing Ken, as he hasn't shown his face on here for a few weeks.

Re: Internationalist approach at H.B.C.
So proud of themselves, Hyndburn Borough Council have tweeted about what they've recently done, on our behalf, on their official Twitter account.
Suprisingly not a twitter about the well recorded human rights abuses, and violent atrocities carried out by the other side in this conflict, the Pakistanis.
Only the other lot, our now enemy, the Indians.
Who we don't officially back here in Hyndburn.
Apparently.
Thanks to the witlessly stupid actions of our elelected representatives on the council.

Or presumably done in name of the 76,221 residents of Hyndburn, who don't 'identify themselves as Kashmiri'.

Not a word in reply, to my polite email to Cllr. Nick Collingridge, the only councillor that I was told, who didn't vote in favour of this resolution.
Either that's incredibley rude, and ill-mannered, or perhaps he's unable to access his emails.
I do hope it's the latter reason.

Because if he hasn't been on here, he might not have seen your question.

Sorry, I'll rephrase what I meant to say:
"I shouldn't have to do that!"

Well, no, you shouldn't, but as Ken seems to have fallen out with Accyweb, you may have to.
Perhaps you should broaden your approach and ask the councillors who are still coming on here regularly?

Good idea, WH. I'll do it here.
What do the other councillors who come on this site think of the Council resolution on Kashmir? Do you agree with me that, since it appears that the resolution was made without hearing the FULL facts regarding Kashmiri Independence, it would be reasonable for the Overview and Scrutiny to look in some detail at this, and make considered recommendations back to Council?
