4,000 holes in Blackburn, Lancashire
Potholes were even making the news back in 1967 when John Lennon cribbed a Daily Mail headline about roads in Blackburn. He included it in lyrics for A Day in the Life.
It's encouraging to discover that Labour councillors John Wright and Solly Khonat have located at least two of them. Only 3,998 to go, lads!
“I read the news today, oh boy. 4,000 holes in Blackburn, Lancashire.
And though the holes were rather small
They had to count them all
Now they know how many holes it takes to fill the Albert Hall”

"A lot of lorries have been driving along the road"
Labour Councillor Dave Harris shows the damage potholes can cause as wheels and complaint letters to Essex Council detatch from passing vehicles:
"Everybody is delighted"
Recent rain need not be a barrier to a great pothole snap. You can avoid getting your clothes wet by squatting instead of kneeling, as ably demonstrated by campaigner Sasha Tiffany, Councillor Ghazanfer Khaliq and headteacher Andrew Wallwork in Bradford.
They look quite pleased with themselves and rightly so. They've collected 275 signatures and the road is set to be repaired!

"Let him know if you find a pothole"
Let's start with Labour and a classic example of the 'bended knee' pose! Councillor Ed Turner shares Iffley residents' concerns about potholes in the village!
