I SIMPLY cannot believe that it is going to be cheaper to build a new Town Hall in Morecambe than to continue using the two magnificent municipal buildings that WE already own.

I am not against the city council moving its headquarters into the resort in principle but it must make a better long term argument to convince me of the financial efficacy of the idea.

We are well used to spin' being put on statements that come from the Government at national level, but surely it is too much to expect us to swallow it from our own council locally.

It has been said that there are lies, damned lies and statistics' and here it seems that we have a perfect example. Unless someone at the council can prove otherwise, of course.

H Jones, Morecambe.
