Exactly - there are a fair few £500k+ houses in the area which is expensive by north west standards. You could buy a fair percentage of Burnley for the same money - not that anybody would want to.

Where are you from Selina?

As for getting elected Mayor it was the 1st Q I asked when I found out. Only a small place so did nt exactly come with much responsibility.

The 2 year sentence looks ridiculous, far worse crimes have been committed with less punishment
Report Howdi • February 6, 2010 11:42 AM GMT
agree with above poster some men pinch knickers with the women in them far worse imo.
Report positively4thsteet • February 6, 2010 11:44 AM GMT
he got 2 years prison? FFS, there are some v.strange sentences handed out. He'll get persecuted inside with a face like that, ex mayor, caught w.anking into women's knickers.
Report Ovalman. • February 6, 2010 11:45 AM GMT
Now I've been through my own knickers smelling which ones are fresh, then I chuck them at the wall and if they don't stick I'll wear them. But I've never done it with anyone else's.

Used to stay at my Great Aunt's in Preesall for all of the Summer school holiday when i was a kid in the 50's. Knott - End for fishing off the ferry slip, or putting night lines out - way across the sands in the channels when the tide was out( and it went out for miles !)
Ferry boats - to Fleetwood, the old ones with long funnels. When fishing trawlers used to sail from Fleetwood - and the Isle Of Man boats. Rusty old dredgers constantly up and down the Wyre estuary keeping the mud at bay.Endless games of pitch and putt on the course at Fleetwood. The pier was great - penny arcades and 'end of pier' shows.Lovely stuff - such happy memories.

Sentence OTT IMO. The shame and loss of position punishment enough. Nobody really harmed.

He's made 1 mistake in 59 years, community service would be more appropriate freeing up jailspace for violent yobs.
Report SPYKES • February 6, 2010 12:02 PM GMT
Mate who works at local paper said that it was partly due to the fact he had broken into a few of the homes to steal the knickers. So charged with breaking and entering too. Cant see it half knowing the guy but you just never know do you.......
Report Marxist-Leninist • February 6, 2010 12:02 PM GMT
Some of the underwear was returned to the drawers after he had finished, pretty grim.
Report positively4thsteet • February 6, 2010 12:08 PM GMT
i'm sure if you get caught breaking and entering in luton you won't go to prison first offence and that.

They've almost decriminalised theft thaven't they, especially if you're a drug addict. They are clamping down on violent crime and pervert crime and drug dealers and there is no room in the prisons, so the crime that gets let off is theft.
Report sparkmaster. • February 6, 2010 12:08 PM GMT
So he was nicked for nicking knicking knickers, before returning the drawers to the drawers?
