A town in Lancashire, NW England. Unfortunately has had some bad press recently, particularly about the large BNP presence/racial problems and social deprivation in the town.
The truth is that Burnley is OK as a place but has just suffered from economic recession over the last two decades and needs a large employer or perhaps a big happening culturally to help it out.
Sure, you get some absolute scumbags who will beat anything up that walks at night, but most of the people are good, honest, genuine Northerners. Oh, they are in the 21st century as well - all this bollocks about us "pointing at planes" (?) etc. is just a stereotype as inaccurate as saying "all turks are violent." I can't remember the last time I saw a whippet or flat cap in the town.
Can I add the number of BNP voters - scarcely over 4,000 at the last election - wouldn't even fill a stand at the ground of Burnley's rather good football club.
Sure, there are racists, but hardly any more than in other UK towns. Well, I hope so - that'll be put to the test over the next few years. But I'm keeping my chin up.

Get the burnley mug.To burle is to sleep with women on their period, be concerned only with drinking & partying hard, and be a hopeless womanizer that cannot function unless he has pussy that day.
"I can't believe you told Kristi that you were f*cking Madeline, you need to find a new way to burle."
"Why does he look so mad this morning?" "I don't know, he's burling too hard."
"Hide the girls man, Eric's been a burler lately."

After the homeless men had a orgy under the bridge there was a residual trail of Burlee Butter® leading to the park fountain
