IT was very interesting to read the views of Tory candidate Mr Rashid regarding Concorde, particularly when the Tory MP David Wilshire, whose Spelthorne Constituency lies under the Heathrow Airport flight path, has been campaigning to get all Concordes grounded since the Air France crash.

While the argument over whether or not the plane should he allowed to fly may seem remote to the vast majority of the people of Bolton, the fact that the Tories can't even present a consistent argument on the subject should be of concern to all of us.
