ABOUT ME
I'm a local lad, born and bred in Rochdale, Over the years just a few of the things I have done: Exposed election fraud; revealed the rank hypocrisy of the so called Labour Party; uncovered Rochdale Council's attempts to cover-up wrong doing by councillors; discovered Rochdale police's mishandling of criminal investigations into the actions of a Rochdale councillor. And more besides.

This is a small selection of the videos I have made over the years in an attempt to ensure accountabilty of decisons made by councillors.

Lies and Greed

In December 2016 our councillors voted to give themselves an early Christmas present in the form of a massive pay rise (34%). They claimed it would be paid for by reducing the number of councillors from 60 to 40. But in 2021 during the cover of 'lockdown' they voted to keep the number of councillors at 60 while keeping the 34% pay rise.
When an election cheat is caught red-handed, having fraudulently obtained an extra postal vote, you would expect him to be turfed out of his party and the council. Not here in Rochdale, where both his Labour buddies and the local police protected him. Who thought the once proud Labour Party could stoop so low? As for elements within Rochdale Police...
The £200,000 property developer giveaway

At least I tried to stop the £200,000 giveaway of money meant for the benefit of local residents. Councillors on the other hand took the easy way out. Say nothing and vote to allow the profitable multi-million pound developer to keep £200,000 of agreed contributions.
Why do they even bother becoming councillors?
