I think we should scrap Lancashire and have home rule for Burnley, perhaps in partnership with Pendle. Then residents could decide for ourselves whether we want road bumps, 20mph speed limits, speed cameras or what.

I think you will find that places like Burnley were asked a few yers ago about becoming a Unitary Authority Darren, and the people turned it down, I know that was the case in Hyndburn. Yet LCC spent our money on propaganda promotting itself, which was more to do with these councillors keeping their noses in the trough, than looking after the real interests of the council tax payer
