HI all, I I heard Ian Lavery on the Radio spouting crap. I recall that a large investment was lavished upon on neighbours on the other side of the river not so long back , their front street got a massive overhaul, a new road laid etc. It already has a leisure centre, and its getting another one? The problem with Ashington is Not ASHINGTON. Money wont solve its problems. You can read between the lines , but you might as well take that money and throw it in the Wansbeck , there you go I said it.... your all thinking it.
