He bloody does! Two up from the Station. He's so fat that he can't make it the 200 yards to the Butlers without having a couple of stops for rest on the way. Not for him the delights of a terrace on Audley range which he represented for years .... that is until the muslim voters kicked him out for betraying fellow muslims and siding with Foreign Sec Jack Straw over the Iraq war. However Jack in turn rewarded his loyalty with a knighthood and a few nod and a wink executive roles in some company boardrooms to supplement his teaching pension. I have it on good authority that Sir Bill was a bit miffed as he had expected a peerage. Typical socialist attitude eh? Nowt but a fat idle Wolverhampton hypocrite.http://www.lancashiretelegraph.co.uk/news/blackburn/16240909.Barbara_Castle_statue_campaign_update/
Not looking good is it . If the Labour Councillors ever do raise the money, perhaps they could rename a bit of spare land Hypocrites Corner and plonk it there , hopefully well out of sight .
Driving through Pleasington the other day , before stopping off at the Butlers for a couple ( wife drove back !) . I'm sure I saw the well honed frame of ex Audley Councillor Sir Bill Taylor taking a leisurely stroll . Surely, as a true working class hero, he doesn't live in the leafy suburb , does he ?
Why is it that so few of our leading politicians don't originate from the borough? I can't begin to think who the last Blackburn MP to have been born and raised in the town was.
