SNOW AND WHITEWASH

Yesterday and today I drove as usual from the Wigan area to Billinge. The roads under Wigan Metro were appalling and had not been gritted. As soon as I crossed the boundary into St Helens the roads had been gritted and were safe.
In the WEP there have been reports of no gritting all over the Wigan Metro area, and now a football match cancelled not because of the pitch conditions but the nearby roads.
I have never heard of this before and it is a disgrace to the town.

What do these overpaid executives think they are doing for their money?
They are too complacent and well in with the ruling Labour group, no doubt spending money thinking of schemes to stop the rise of the BNP as they did a few weeks ago.
If our councillors and MPs had done their job and sacked these jobsworths then perhaps there would have been no need for the BNP but this incompetence shows how much we are needed.

ON ANOTHER TOPIC.

The proposed television debate between the leaders of "The three big parties" may perhaps be interesting in exposing their collective weaknesses but it will not be democratic.
The debate will be in effect a party political broadcast for them even though it will show them up for being very little different.
But what about the other parties not just ours, Scot and Welsh Nat, Greens UKIP etc?
I have a feeling that the "Big Three" are afraid of the so called "minor" parties and their growing support and are staging the debate to ward off people voting for parties like ours.
The selected audience aspect of it ironic. You mean like the selected audience at Question Time? I don't think so. The three muppets will be allowed to speak unlike Nick Griffin.

I accept that there can be too many in a debate so how about a debate with UKIP the Scot and Welsh Nationalists and Nick Griffin?
Surely that would be more democratic.
The others are having three debates. One will do for us and be proportionate, after all these parties polled a large number of votes at the Euro elections.
That would really set the cat among the pigeons, but they would never do it as they fear the BNP and Nick Griffin especially and they would be right to, he would aniihilate them.
