After passing on many of Mr Harkin's previous comments, I feel it is time to reply again to the many letters by Guy Harkin and Derek Burrows with various comments about everyone else.

This used to happen when I was a councillor for the Kearsley area, but my efforts were directed more towards the people of Kearsley and improving it, not at other parties. Even before I was a councillor all my written correspondence was always challenged by Mr Burrows, Mrs Spencer and Mrs Keating who were councillors at that time.

Now I see on their news leaflets and correspondence it always reads Burrows and Harkin, surely it is not difficult to answer on a one-to-one basis.

Regarding comments on their leaflets. "when was the last time you saw a Lib Dem councillor". I must point out that councillors Mr and Mrs Rothwell, myself and others deliver our own leaflets at no cost to anyone.
