THREE simple questions regarding the issue of statues.
1. Who has done more for the prosperity and well being of Blackburn in recent times - Barbara Castle or the Walker Brothers?
2. Is there a list of main donators to the Barbara Castle Trust?
3. Shouldn't any memorial to Barbara Castle be in the county of her home in Buckinghamshire?
Finally, I guess it hardly matters what your readers think as Jack Straw and Blackburn with Darwen Council will railroad this through.
