Donal O’Hanlon, Liberal Democrat Prospective Parliamentary Candidate for the Bolton South East Constituency, has said that questions should be asked of the council and police over a series of arson attacks that have blighted Bolton.

In his latest blog he has said: “Since I decided to think of standing as a candidate for Bolton South East, I’ve been keeping abreast of events normally via the “Bolton News”. The number of arsons reported in those pages is truly staggering. Virtually every other day a new arson occurs to houses, cars, factories, bins or on open ground.

“I understand the fight that the Fire Service have, in trying to move from a reactive service to a pro-active preventative service, but what are the police and local council doing to reduce the numbers? In all the time I’ve been reading, probably once or twice have I seen reference to arson reduction programs. I recommend the public look over the pages in the next few weeks and start asking those who control the Council exactly what they are doing about this Bolton scourge!”
