IS Cllr Harkin unaware of the fact that it wasn't the lords, ladies and mill owners in their carriages who put the "Great" in Britain, it was the people who wore flat caps and shawls.

It was these same people who fought in the two world wars to defend our freedom.

It is customers who attract businesses to Bolton, and until Bolton Council gets its act together and provides reasonable facilities to park and go to the toilet, Bolton will continue to slide down the tube.
