THE rot in the town goes deeper and deeper! Not content with abandoning the key bus routes which are so necessary for the townspeople, and especially for the less mobile, our town hall Labour bright sparks have now come up with another of their brilliant policies.

As from Friday April 13 schoolchildren in Blackpool are to have their school buses withdrawn.

In fact, they think it is such a great idea that they plan to take away the transport for five schools.

From the aged and the weak in council homes to the youngest in society no-one is safe from the disgraceful penny-pinching antics of our ruling councillors.

It should be noted too that the decisions were made, not before a committee where questions could be asked and before the public, but all cut and dried in Labour's true style in a murky corner in the town hall.

All this is taking place mind you before the general election. You think things are bad now -- just wait until after the election. You 'aint seen nothing yet folks!
