Gloomy reaction to county plans for light bulb library

Bright sparks at Lancashire County Council want to set up a light bulb library.

The move to lend energy efficient bulbs has been branded a daft, hare-brained scheme and a silly stunt' that will do little to help save the planet.

Bosses at the council believe that people do not install the low-energy bulbs because they fear they will not fit into existing fittings and because they are concerned they will not provide an adequate quality of lighting.

But opponents said the council needed to stop treating people as if they were stupid.
