REGARDING Councillor Dave Smith's remarks (Letters, September 11), I apologise for unintentionally telling porkies about the block grants in the Queen's Park area of Blackburn. I was wrong -- they had individual grants.
The block grants in Blackburn include 90 per cent of Mill Hill, most of the houses in the Kirby Road and Longshaw Lane area, and approximately 500 houses in the Johnson Street area.
All we have had in Darwen is the Twin Valley Homes demolition. Why didn't the council get Fred Dibnah?
FRANK CROMPTON, Lightbown Street, Darwen.
