Mr. sledge,

This time it appears that you have the wrong end of the stick.

I did not ask you to identify the area in question nor, as you appear to suspect, am I trying to identify it by a process of elimination.

What would be the point? If I could identify it what would it change?

I would've thought that the point of my questions was reasonably obvious. If not then here's a clue:

Despersions?? I assume you mean aspersions.

As I recall you mentioned "....walking the corridors of power". A statement that smacks of an arrogance that is like a red rag to a bull for me. Please appreciate that there wouldn't be any "corridors of power" to walk if the Wigan public chose not to fund them.

As for casting aspersions on your abilities, I don't recall doing that. As I recall it was quite the reverse:

[QUOTE]Of course if you think you could do a better job than me........ and I am sure you will say
you could, but we both know in truth you wouldnt know where to start ..and thats what
really makes me laugh[/QUOTE]

As I said at the time, how do you know I wouldn't know where to start when you know nothing about me?

How's that for arrogance?

However, perhaps if you could bite your tongue - and I appreciate it may sometimes be difficult - and give (as you have sometimes attempted to do) a rational and reasoned explanation rather than attempting to deride and discredit certain posters I'm sure you will earn some respect from the majority.

Another point I'd like to make is that you claim that this board is anti-council and then proceed to condemn and criticise for that. Would it not be more constructive to, at least attempt, to find out why it appears so?

In addition you claim that the majority of people support the Council without (as far as I know) ever providing any evidence to support that assertion. This, despite the fact that you frequently demand it of others.

I hope you will take some time to digest this post and not react in a knee-jerk manner.
