Regarding the recent article ‘Blackburn prayer room given go-ahead (LT, December 17), despite council planners’ advice regarding parking issues, that the scheme was not suitable for a residential area and residents’ objections, the council voted 10 to 5 to give it the green light!

How many of the 10 councillors who voted ‘for’ are from or represent the Asian community?
