Gloves off in Blackpool election run-up

In the interests of fairness and honesty I have published Councillor's Ian Fowler's reply(above) to Mr David Palmer who is circulating leaflets (published previously) highlighting events whilst this administration has been in office; a leaflet I will gladly assist in distribution if Mr Palmer so wishes.
For those outside the Borough, Blackpool has ground to a standstill as one of only two arterial routes has been closed to the public, that is the Promenade. Most other traffic has to snail it's way along Whitegate Drive and the road cannot carry the weight or volume of modern traffic.
In the interim, it looks to the public as though Councillors are administering the Borough with scant regard for public observation or participation. Houses seem to be sold with consummate ease in a market of recession, bought through the Council at Tax Payer expense. This is causing concern, to which Councillors seem to be closing ranks and denying Joe Public scrutiny.
This is not a Party issue as many of the horrendous decisions were passed by previous Labour Administrations and we all know how labour has destroyed public and private finance. No more Boom and Bust is now permanent BUST.
The great sadness is that if the electorate remove this awful administration they will elect through apathy an even worse set of bigots and incompetents than they have removed. Just look at the last General Election and all the HooHaa over MP's expenses. What has Westminster done since? Correct. Reinforced their own over-privileged rights at the expense of the Tax Payer. This is what is going to happen in Blackpool in a few days time.
