General   (General discussion, talk about anything.)

Many Wiganers will know the lovely viewpoint and beauty spot which is Parbold Hill.
At a recent Lancashire County Council meeting Councillors passed a proposal to allow a Landfill site on the very brow of the hill opposite the Pub and restaurant, which would wreck the spot as a viewpoint into and across the Douglas Valley!. A new entrance would be built near the top of the hill, and a suggestion was even made that traffic lights may be installed to control the extra traffic!
Now it seems (with local elections looming) that this proposal may be put on hold, but could be reactivated after the elections!
The Councillors who voted in favour of this proposal were all representatives of the Tory party, and none represented this area of Lancashire ( nearly all from North of Preston!).
Guess who will not have my vote at the forthcoming elections?
