Same with Burnley. Government money on its own can't fix all our problems. There will never be enough of it. Instead we need partnerships with the private sector. BNP activism makes Burnley look ugly. We need to create a positive image of Burnley that will make manufacturing companies want to invest here. That image has to be based on reality. That means cleaning the streets, controlling anti-social behaviour and having something to be proud of and to aspire to.
Positive feelings are fairly easy to have when you put your mind to it, and feeling good about our home town is as good a place to start as any. |
I know several members of the BNP and must say that I find them nothing like we are led to believe they are, They help old people who are unable to manage simple chores, They arrange clean ups of neglected areas, Also I have never heard a single Racist comment from any of them, One particular friend Cllr Sharon Wilkinson even gives up her free time every Tuesday to cook a meal for the over 50s club in Hapton, That is going way beyond her call of duty, My humble opinion is that the big 3 parties are scared of the BNP so refuse to work alongside them no matter what the voters think, No matter what ideas they have.
They were voted in by the people and refusing to work with them is very childish, and proves the big 3 care nothing for the democratic process.
If for arguements sake Mr Reynolds it came to a vote on dealing with Gary Glitter, Would you tow the party line or vote with your heart even if it meant agreeing with the BNP?
