WE have had several controversies in Blackburn. To name but a few there have been the disastrous orbital route, the fiasco that is Church Street and the dubious question over homes that are declared unfit to live in and are to be demolished in Blackburn and Darwen by the council.

And now Blackburn Transport is to be sold off and some people could find themselves without a bus service.

This is the 21st century.! When it is local election time again no doubt we will see the same old weary, inadequate party returned yet again to power.

People have very short memories indeed.
