BLACKBURN Council reminds me of the television character, Worzel Gummidge.

It seems they have got their stupid head on again in planning to shut the Lewis Textile Museum.

If they succeed, they will probably knock the building down and put one of their metal trees in its place, with metal railings round.

And by way of the metal trees and railings etc., why don't the councillors who voted for them have one erected in their own gardens if they think they are so wonderful?
