BLACKBURN with Darwen Borough Council never fails to upset the community it 'serves' and now it has reached an all-time low.

Its proposal to build the latest phase of the orbital route through St Peter's graveyard is soulless and immoral.

Coun Andy Kay, however, seems to think it is perfectly reasonable to desecrate the burial site since 'no-one has tended the graves for a long time.'

A grave is a final resting place and must never be disturbed.

What then happens to the congregation of the Spiritualist Church or the residents of Byrom House nursing home?

Evidently their lives lack any value in Mr Kay's eyes too.

MRS B BANKS, Heartwood Close, Blackburn.
