According to a recent study undertaken by an independent think tank, Burnley is at the bottom of the pile for economic recovery after the recession. I wish I had the words to express how much it irritated me to see my hometown, and by definition, my children written off in that way. I decided to adapt a video I was making in to some sort of response to this. I am sick to death of Burnley being the UK whipping boy, and I am fed up of the place being a symbolic representation of all that is bad about our country. We have the highest BNP vote and the lowest level of education. This cannot be a simple coincidence. This is what Beauty in the Universe is all about. We are going to make a change in this town.
