I FELT I had to write to you over Burnley not having a Christmas tree in the town centre.

What are people thinking of. We have always had a tree in Burnley.

I am personally sick to death of our traditions having to be changed due to religious reason.

For Chris Gubben to say it is very labour intensive is a load of rubbish.

I have looked up at the tree we have had in the past and it's a great feeling to see it.

Children really love seeing it. For God's sake don't lets spoil Christmas, keep our tradition up and put the tree up in Burnley.
