BLUE with cold for Rochdale's homeless

Well, piss-poor politics in Rochdale really have meant a downturn in the fortunes of Rochdale's homeless. Sadly, this has happened under Labour's watch and a few of us from the forum pages on Rochdale Online have got together an apolitical group to do something about it. Details at

If the council refuse to budge, we plan to doss-out for a night in front of the Town Hall in order to draw attention to the situation which basically will make it damned-near impossible to access an emergency bed without going through a load of rigmarole via a telephone 'helpline'.

The last thing I want to do is to have to kip out but the Chill-Out campaign as we call it, is really taking off. Sadly, as yet, no members of Rochdale's ruling Labour Group has dared to join us. (Mind you, with the way that Labour operates in Rochdale, it has more in common than the Cosa Nostra than with a working class party! I think that folk are scared of waking up with a horse's end at the end of their sleeping-bag.

THE BLUE SHED RESPONDS:

OMG, Old Lard-Ass has a bee in his bloody bonnet again.. How does he find the time? Now he seems to have gone into 'Hug A Dosser' mode. Well, bully for him. He never thinks of me at the bottom of his garden literally BLUE with cold being shat on by all the local wildlife.

Now, Old Lard-Ass has a pal; a weird-looking, shifty-eyed sod if ever there was one BUT, he knows how to look after HIS shed. His wife's a bit toffee-nosed and refers to it as 'a Summer House'.

Summer-House my ass. It's made of wood, it sits in the garden; it's a SHED geddit!!!! Anyway, I'll put a photo up. It might shame old Lard-Ass into taking better care of me.

Cute ain't it? Dunno what all the lifebelts and things are for; it's 50 miles from the sea. Still, it looks pretty in a psycho sort of way.
