General   (General discussion, talk about anything.)

Sledge. I guarantee you that if you go to any psychi unit, they wont even let you go home for yer pyjamas matey.The standard of transport is open to interpretation? No, the fact is it is nowehere near having the desired effect of reducing in any significant amount the traffic going into Wigan.Oh and as or me being a significant age, nope I am 44 ye cheeky sod so dont get a free bus pass!. However, whether someone is paying for it or not does not mean it should be a shoddy unhygenic service.
A referendum on services? Why not? It does not have to be a postal vote and by the way, maybe if it was Wigan Council could send the postal vote out with the host of other crap that comes through my door from the council such as the Council Magazine telling me how wonderful the council is. Or maybe they could be delivered by the people who shove leaflets through my door advertising kebabs and pizzas which the council allow to run fast food outlets without a sniff of appropriate planning permission or thoughts about increased litter from fast food outlets. Our town is fast turning into a fast food empire. Oh, and money does grow on trees, it is paper and paper comes from trees me thinks. So do fast food leaflets
And you think people on here are not intelligent enough on here to have reasoned debate. I aint trying to make you look daft sledge. It is all about opinion, you have yours and I have mine and that is fine. I love a good debate. I do think however you need to smell the coffee and can only assume you work for the council due to the passion of your argument. Oi, maybe you are a councillor. Who knows?
As for the Council not owning the arcade, I do know that. However, they have a vested interest in it. Do you think the retailers do their trade there for free or that the parking is free? I will guarantee you some nice deals went on as well when it was being built. Maybe some of the money made should be ploughed back into the roads. Tha gets nowt for free.
