WELL whatever next? First Leisure are going to create a "Las Vegas of Europe" are they, with umpteen casinos? What an appalling idea.

While I do admit something must be done to get dear old Blackpool buzzing again I'm sure I speak for many who are aghast at this latest notion.

However, looking on the bright side we do have a Tower and a long pier where hapless and penniless individuals, frequenters of such establishments, can possibly end it all having lost -- as they most undoubtedly will -- all their holiday funds!
