To our loyal reader (we know who you are). We thank you for sticking with us through this trying time for the town we love. The Wulfe team wishes you a very Happy Christmas and a prosperous New Year.
To The wasters in the Tower Of Babble, our wish for them is what they wish upon us .....!!
If you enjoyed the Wulfe this last twelve months then stick with us next year when things could get really bad.
If you didn't enjoy the Wulfe - Then why the fuck did you stay? Go read some really funny shit at Little Jimmy Pudden-Face's blog. It's better than Billy's Weekly Liar!!
Cheers!! B.B.W.
Well, fuck me with the broad end of a rag-mans trumpet!!!! No sooner do we bemoan the fact that the tossers in the tower have failed to re-open Limecroft Care Home as promised, than they go and do it.
Here we see the usual suspects at the grand opening. All smiles and smugness at their great achievement. But at what cost to us poor buggers has this been achieved?
In June, Oldham Council agreed to restore the 20-bed residential
care home to full use and have undertaken refurbishment work costing £624,000 including new carpets and furnishings. That's 624 grand for wallpaper, paint, curtains, carpet and furniture. Not for non-essentials like en-suite facilities for the TWENTY residents!
After this quick tarting up what have the knobheads decided? Against all their 'professed' Lie-bour dogma they have given the fuckin' place away to an outfit called 'Meridian Healthcare!!' Privatisation of health services? Well local MP Debbie Abrahams won't stand for that will she? It's against everything she 'believes' in. Isn't it? Oh hang on a mo' Who's that in the middle of the group grinning like a Cheshire cat? Two faced twats aren't they?
Have you ever seen such a picture as this, full of wasted time, money and space, from the absentee pillock at the left to the FA Cup on the right. Not a days work between 'em!
Now, having spent £624,000 of our money which we haven't got, they are now drawing up Plans for a £2 million scheme to
create en-suite facilities and extend the capacity to 40 beds. 400 jobs to go says council. Let's spend, spend, spend says council. Anyone seen ONE money saving measure since the turds took over? Do you want to bet on 400 jobs going? Lie-bour slash jobs? Slash their vote share? If you believe that watch Santa's reindeer don't crap on your head tonight.
Councillor Phil Hardlysane, limp member for adult social services and
Health, said: “When the new administration took control in May we
pledged to residents that we would reopen Limecroft and we have made
good on that promise. What we didn't tell them was we didn't have a clue as to how to run it so we had to give it away.
More money down the drain. Paying other people for doing the jobs we used to do with ease. Money is leaving the borough at a faster and faster rate because these incompetents are unable to cover even the basic services. It is too easy to spend other people's money! The rot is spreading downwards from the top as the idle bastards find less and less to do as they lavish money on third parties to do their jobs.
Why not get rid of all council workers? Pay 'Fleessum, Grabbitt and Scarper' to 'run' all our essential services while the gobshites sit around being 'co-operative' and digging deeper and deeper into the trough!!!
Ain't it a weird feeling having the town run by bunches of chancers from all around the country? Every day, less and less of the town is ours!
LET'S RECLAIM THE TOWN!!
A CHADDERTON pub, The Sportsman in Denton Lane, has been shut
down temporarily after police found class A and B drugs when the pub
was raided at 7.20pm on Sunday.
Insp Paul Walker told Oldham Council's licensing panel how he was
met by
more than 40 “anti-police” people in the pub and that two small
children were playing next to a table with cocaine under it. A man was
found snorting cocaine in the toilets.
David Kent, solicitor for Greater Manchester Police, asking for the
pub’s licence to be suspended, said officers found bags of cannabis with
a street value of £500 in living
accommodation above the bar, as well as £3,000 in cash.
He added: “We believe there has been serious crime committed by way
of possession of class B drugs with intent to supply. Class A drugs
were found in the bar with children playing close by _
this is a
community pub.”
Finbar Tuite, the premises’ licence holder, denied there had been any physical threats to police and said if
people were aggressive it was probably because they felt their night out
had been disrupted.
Members of the licensing panel meeting yesterday afternoon decided to temporarily suspend the pub’s licence.
Chairman, Councillor John Battye
said the panel was satisfied the pub
was involved with illicit drugs and suspended the licence until January
17, when a full review will be heard.
Supt Gary Simpson said
: “This pub is associated with organised crime and
following our intelligence-led operation two of those arrested have
been given fixed-penalty notices and two have been cautioned for
possession of class A or B drugs.”
No further action has been taken against four people for possession of class A drugs.
A 38-year old man was arrested for possession with intent to supply
cannabis, and has been bailed until February pending police inquiries.
A couple of things stand out: The GMP solicitor says The Sportsman is a "community pub."
Supt Simpson of GMP says The pub is associated with organised crime.
So
which is it? Can GMP agree on anything? Is it a community of organised
criminals? A community of anti-police people? Children were playing
close by: what were they playing, Strip Happy Families?
In as few words as possible explain why you think people were
"anti-police" at 7:20 pm on a Sunday night, when, as they enjoyed a
convivial evening, God knows how many of our finest stormed this den of
iniquity?
Explain your understanding of the term -
"intelligence led operation." Was Insp Walker the officer guarding the
GMP brain-cell that evening , if so does he consider the result a
"result"?
Out of 40 plus people in the pub at the time
of 'The Raid" We have two receiving fixed penalty fines - and two
cautioned. No action has been taken against four others, but one unlucky
bastard has been bailed, pending further enquiries.
Two fixed penalty notices out of all that brouhaha and they wonder why they stumbled upon a pub full of "anti-police" people!
But....Finally
- Take a look again at that Licensing Committee! Look who we have as
chairman sitting in judgement on others. 'BATTYE THE BENT' The biggest piece of slime to have
crawled out of the sewer that is Oldham Council! The lying,
duplicitous, conniving piece of shit responsible, via his failed dirty
tricks campaign, for the ousting of Fill Woolyass from his position as
MP for OE & Saddleworth.
What is the matter with the Lie-bour party in this town? Have
they forgotten this shameful incident already or were they complicit
with the act? Why after his despicable tricks was this charlatan
allowed to stand again as a local councillor? Could the local Lie-bour
party not find someone with at least a pretence at principles to put
forward? Probably not! The whole fucking lot are bereft of morals and
bent as corkscrews. This demonstrates how low Lie-bour have sunk in
their desperation to cling onto any vestige of power. No wonder this
town has become a laughing stock! Little Jimmy Pudden-Face and his
co-operative council! Aye, they're all co-operating. With each other to
fill their pockets and bollocks to us poor fuckers!
Bah Fucking Humbug!!
Just how bad are things in our town centre??
This is but one of a series of 'Spotlights' on various parts of what remains of the town centre. This series has been running in the local paper, The Oldham Evening Chronicle for several days.
This piece features the High Street once the main shopping artery through the town. As a measure of how far we have sunk this Christmas advertising campaign managed to feature just Five shops. These being: Meeks - Shoe Shop, Simpsons - Jewellers, and NW Bullion, who are after buying your old gold. These shops are on High Street. The other two stores : Frillys - lacy lady things and Specsavers - opticians are on Lord Street and Curzon Street respectively. That is the sum total of Christmas advertising from High Street Oldham. Two of the outlets are not what you would call Christmassy stores so that leaves just three stores vying for your custom this Festive Season.
Was it worth turning on the spotlight? Is anyone in the 'corridors of power looking at these things and wondering is it my fault? How many stores will be left to entice us by the time the unwanted Metrostench arrives and the town centre is regenerated? This feature is a truly awful indictment of the way our shopping centre has been neglected and allowed to slip away. If anyone reading this truly believes that the town centre will be regenerated by the arrival of trams at the bottom of the St Peter's cliff face you are severely deluded. It will be a ghost train not a tram service.
The situation will probably get much worse after the Christmas rush (Ha!). Several store chains are in serious financial trouble so expect closures to accelerate in the new year.
We might have had four stores on High Street advertising in this feature but Barratt/Priceless shoe stores went into administration last week so expect more lavish displays of brown paper.
One can only sympathise with the remaining traders battling to survive in the town. There is no help or relief from the twats in the Ivory Tower. Everything possible has been done to deter folk from visiting the town centre. The way the fucking clowns are performing, every bastard road in the town will be closed by Christmas.
This cannot go on much longer!! We have to put a stop to the rot!!
Beware you greedy, self serving,clueless bastards. We are coming!!
PS. OEC we think Environs would have been a better word
Oldham Beer Festival moves back to Queen Elizabeth Hall
Thanks to a one-year grant of £4,600 from Jim McMahon, Oldham council leader
400 jobs to go at Oldham Council as £24m cuts are agreed
OMBC council leader, Jim McMahon, agrees axing of up to 400 jobs in bid to save £24m
The annual event was axed from the town centre venue two years ago when
the Lib-Dem-run Oldham Council asked for maximum rent for the hall hire,
which would have left no money in the kitty to hand out to local
charities.
Little Jimmy Pudden-Face has now secured its return to its favoured former venue for 2012
with a subsidy of £4,600.
The one-year agreement of £4,600 will cover the rental cost of the Queen
Elizabeth Hall. The rent for the QE Hall will return to the council. So why do we have to have this rigmarole? Why not just let the festival organisers use the place for free cos that's all they are doing now. Couldn't be just a publicity stunt for the dough-faced wunderkind, surely? It will distract your mind from the dire straits the town is in though.
Council leader, Jim McMahon, said: “I was approached by the
beer festival organisers and have agreed to support this event for 2012 with a donation from the Leadership Priority Investment Fund."
Let's get this straight! When the Pudden says HE has decided to support the event what he forgets to add is "with your money." If this is the leaders priority it reveals the shallow depths of thinking from a so called leader. The two article headlines above, appeared adjacent to each other in the local paper. Did it make you feel good, the chosen 400? Did you all feel a glow of goodwill toward your caring council?
The vapid prick said. “I decided to support the event because I believe the beer festival is an important part of the cultural offer in our borough." That's the problem with this town a 'public piss-up' is classed as a cultural offering
From Cloud Cuckoo Land the whey faced one bleats, “Hosting it at the QE hall brings in hundreds of visitors to our town centre – often from many miles around, which helps to boost our town-centre trade."
What fucking trade? Have you not noticed, Jimmy baby, the town centre has gone to hell in a handcart while you and your band of ne'er-do-wells, preen and posture like the clueless fucking idiots you are?
Do you ever think that people coming from 'many miles around' are probably coming from towns that still cling to the old fashioned ways and have town centres full of stores that are actually open and not just window displays of brown paper?
You say that 'beer drinking is not your bag' ??? Maybe you should try it sometime and get out on the piss! You take it out of us often enough!!!! It might clear your eyes to the shite all around!
CHEERS!!!
Former chef takes charge of academy
It could only happen in to Oldham
A former chef turned fast-track school leader has been appointed to the top job at Oasis Academy Oldham. Fucking great! The third leader for the scam that is Oasis Academy and it's not even up and running properly yet!
David Hayes will replace interim principal Sir Iain Hall who stepped in after the sudden departure, at a fast run, of his predecessor who was in the job long enough for everyone to forget his name.
Mr Hayes
qualified as a chef after leaving school before going into teaching.
His first post was as a PE teacher at Brookfield High School, Kirkby,
and he then spent a year working at the Japanese International School in
Hong Kong. He returned to Brookfield before becoming a national manager
with the Youth Sport Trust for three years. He worked at Kirkby Sports College
before joining Oasis Academy MediaCityUK. He was part of the National
College Future Leaders programme to fast-track talented head teachers. How do you know if someone is a talented headteacher if they have never been a headteacher? Have you noticed lately that almost everyone appointed to some sinecure or other in the town has had a plethora of previous jobs? For instance look up Charlie's CV! Flitting about from one non-job to another. Don't stay long enough to get sussed!
He said: “I am delighted to have been appointed." I bet he fucking is! I guess the Wulfe didn't make the shortlist.
"There are wonderful
people here, both in the academy and in our wider community." How the fuck has he come to this decision so rapidly? he hasn't got his feet under a desk yet!
"It’s a
place where I can come in and hit the ground running." Yep! You're right there. Far as we know your predecessor is still running, but then again we heard HE was a quick learner.
"There are great things
in store for Oasis Academy Oldham.” Must be the only store with any sort of things, left in Oldham then!
Oasis Academy Oldham replaced South Chadderton and Kaskenmoor Schools in
September, 2010. It will move into a new multi-million building for
1,500 pupils in Hollinwood next year. Where the local road infrastructure and parking facilities will make the area an 'Oasis' of calm.
How long before he's off, chasing er, you know, thingummy?
What next? Pork Butcher from Jerusalem appointed Borough Solicitor?? ......Hmmm!
Here we go again!
The fucking Metrostink opening has been postponed yet again. The brainfarts at TfGM having spent millions over the past several years on the new wonder of the world -The Tram Management System, have discovered an interesting fact about it. It doesn't fucking work! So we are doomed to another twelve months in the fucking wilderness while the tossers fuck about with their toys. The way the town centre is collapsing it won't matter very shortly anyway. There will be sod all we need a tram for (not that we wanted it in the first place).
According to Ann Arsewipe (spokesperson for TfGM) "The new Tram Management System (TMS), can electronically map tram positions and automatically control points and signals." But not while the trams are fucking running unfortunately.
During trials at Media City last September the system caused severe disruption and as the non-planners at TfGM have chucked all their eggs in one basket, we are fucked and the line to Oldham Mumps, which was due to open in March, 2012, will open even later than planned next year (if at all), according to a report
considered by Transport for Greater Manchester.
An update report will be considered by TfGM in January. Yeah, take your time lads! We're trapped in the land that time forgot with the town disappearing around us while you set of bell-ends piss about with your Sinclair Spectrums. If after all this fucking about, the golden lifeline isn't going to be running before the back end of next year, what's the point of taking it to Mumps? The Union Street Total Waste Of Time Scheme (USTWOTS) will be should be may be is due to be completed about then. Can you see what's gonna happen folks? The first three trams will run to Mumps then everything will stop once more while they dig the twatting thing up and transfer everything to Union St.
"Ultimately, all the lines will be controlled by the new system, which
will allow more trams to run on the network, as well as giving drivers
and controllers the ability to manage vehicle schedules." The fucking system can't control one line never mind all of them. This is another major IT fuck up! It will cost us untold millions while three nerds, whose only experience of running a light rail system was gleaned from the Thomas The Tank engine sets they had as kids, piss about, before eventually admitting defeat and we are reduced to running all trams with a flagman walking in front with a red flag.
A spokesprick said. "A two or three month delay may arise on the already-delayed Rochdale extension." Ha ,Ha, Ha . Do you want to take bets on two months (50/1), three months (33/1) or a lot longer (1/2)?
Philip Purdy, TfGM’s Metrolink director, said: “The new operating system
is a fundamental part of the expansion: ultimately, we simply cannot
have one without the other." That's it then. We're fucked! Why does the system have to control the whole network? Trams on the Oldham/Rochdale spur will not be going to Altrincham or Eccles or Bury. We didn't need all this shit when we had a perfectly good rail system. They managed to run without all these fancy PMT systems and computerised garbage. Signalmen switched points and changed signals, it worked for a fucking long time. Why not do a spot of job creation and reduce the chances of the nine-fifteen from Mumps terminating four months later in fucking Wythenshawe? Who the fuck, apart from all the anally challenged job preservers at TfGM wants to know that the next tram will be along in two and a half minutes (or not)?
“The first stage of introducing the new system is to integrate the new
with the old in a way that has the least impact on existing services." If WE had some sort of service of any kind, then maybe WE could cease impacting our heads against the brick wall in a failing attempt to take away the pain.
“We share the frustrations of people waiting patiently to use the
services, especially as construction of the new lines is going well." No you don't share our frustrations! You fuck and fart about in your plush offices day in day out, then piss off 'ome to your Cheshire Set, while WE sit for fucking hours in interminable roadworks and traffic jams, of your making, as we struggle to make our way around a town with no cohesive transport policy
Let's look at - "Construction of the new lines is going so well.......?????"
To RE-LAY 12 miles in two years? Average 6 mls per yr. - Between 1863 & 1869 Union Pacific & Central Pacific Railroads LAID 1756 miles of track between Sacramento & Council Bluffs, Iowa. Avge 293 miles per yr. In 2 yrs 586miles. At Metrolink speeds it would have taken the RR's 293 yrs to complete the line. It wouldn't have been finished until the yr 2156, by then no-one would want it. A nice symmetry eh? Why don't we re-name Mumps, Council Bluffs?
“This is about the safe operation of a network that will be
three times the size it is now, so we cannot cut any corners.” Speed we're going we won't reach the corner 'til Oldham Wakes. The only thing we reckon worth cutting is just south of thi gob!
You couldn't make this shit up!!!!
COUNCIL officers are preparing tight restrictions on new town centre takeaways, Oldham Town Centre Partnership reports.What and who is this mysterious 'partnership' apart from being another allowance gathering exercise??
A document, which could come into action next year, will outline strict criteria for consent. COULD???? NEXT YEAR???? Don't hold your fucking breath then folks. It is another Jimmy Pudden-Face, 'Blairwash' - Talk about it for a month or so, do nowt and by next year the idiot masses will have forgotten about it.
Coun Jackie Starturn, the Mystic Meg of the Derker Wastelands, (clothes-pegs and lucky heather a speciality), a partnership board member, (or should that be 'bored' as in should be reamed out), hopes it will curb the number of takeaways in the town centre. She said: “Takeaways cheapen our town centre." How the fuck can you devalue something that has a value at present of about one and ninepence, (ask yer grandad!). Parts Most of the town centre looks closed during the day, with their shutters down.” Not to mention the brown-paper window displays of those businesses that have legged it. It doesn't just 'look' closed down, it is closed down, most of it permanently.
Partnership members recommended refusal of a planned hot-food takeaway in Union Street, opposite Sainsbury’s. This would put it next to the imminent Oldham Central Metrosink stop. OOOoooh! we wouldn't want visitors to our fair borough to see anything as uncouth as a takeaway would we? What a fucking shock awaits them when they climb the Col St. Pierre to what used to be the town centre.
Another board member, Coun Dave(Here he fucking is again) Hibbert, said: “What we don’t need any more of in the town centre is takeaways. People coming off the tram will not want to see a takeaway.” Who are these 'people' coming off the tram? Whence have they come? Where the fuck are they going and why?
By the way Diddy Dave what we don't really need any more of in this town is useless scrotes like yourself who couldn't run a fucking bath!
The partnership said the proposal, recommended for refusal by the board, did nothing to develop the variety and quality of the town centre. Just run that by us again will you Diddy and the Gang! Develop the variety and quality of the town????? What cocksucking variety? It's a town of pound-stores and cheap clothes stores and as for quality - sex shops would turn their noses up at opening among the dross that passes as the 'town centre shopping experience.'
It's much too late for remedial measures. The town centre tipped past the point of no return a long while ago.
Metrosink or no Metrosink there are no incentives for people to shop here and there are certainly no incentives for new retail outlets to open up here. Anyone can see that a one way drain has been opened and the lifeblood of this town is leaking away faster and faster. Anyone, that is, apart from the amoebas on Little Jimmy Pudden-face's gravy train of a 'partnership.'
It's too fucking late you tossers!!! In search of every fucking pound you could glean from all the shite outlets opening in the town centre, you greedy bastards have sold us all down the river. It's not often you can make pig-shit out of a silk purse but you worthless wankers have managed to pull it off! We hope you are proud of your achievements! I can tell you WE hate the fucking sight and sound of you! You are a fucking disgrace to this town! Beware! We are coming!
REMEMBER THIS??
Oldham Lie-bour Chronicle 7 June 2011
Note the
subtil placement of Diddy Dave 'Fibber' Hibbert to make the most of his towering presence.
OR THIS??
Oldham Lie-bour Chronicle 21 July 2011
Four bids to run Limecroft home
DISCUSSIONS are under way with four local authority arms-length trusts over the future of Limecroft Care Home in Limeside.
The home had closed under the previous administration on March 31 due to council cuts but the new Cabinet voted last month to reopen it within six months.
Cabinet member for adult services and health, Councillor Philip Harrison, said Tameside, Stockport, Manchester and Wigan had been asked to submit a bid with their proposals for a specialist residential respite service.
A three-year contract will be awarded late September and the home reopened December 1.
So! Are the residents now safely ensconced in Limecroft? Did we have the grand re-opening on Dec 1st? Did we miss it? Has that smear of protozoan ooze pictured above been quarantined inside to prevent the rest of us becoming affected by the brain eating virus of which they are carriers?
NAH!!! It's just the usual Lie-bour 'Blairfest' Promise, promise, promise, until people actually believe you have delivered, then quietly drop it.
New Lie-bour promise clock up and running in sidebar. I can see we'll have dozens of these before this lot are rumbled.
Listen you numbfucks! Can you not understand simple directions??
We have told you several times that sections of Union Street could be open over Christmas then again we could be completely wrong and you will find long stretches closed or one way heading toward you.
.
Some of it will be open in both directions, but probably not at the same time. Parts of it will open both ways for some of the time and some of it will close part of the time. None of it will open one way unless it is in the other direction. We will erect display post probably not bother with Signs. There's nowhere to go anyway. The town centre will be closed forthwith. The town centre shop will remain open for business but you must phone in your order and one of their intrepid explorers will deliver via mountain-bike.
As you have been told on umpteen fucking occasions Metrostink 'workers' will put down the tool, (it's a long handled, "Terraslicer" left handed shovel actually), on Dec 22 and will sod off for two or three weeks of R&R in warmer climes, where they will piss their productivity bonuses up the wall. Oh, by the way, did we mention the whole job has been put back for months once again?
Anyhow read the fucking notices! Part of the road is closed in one direction (not sure which), while we shaft you left right and centre into thinking that something important is going on.
Paragraph - The fourth. A tosspot, Don Wagstaff, who calls himself "A Planning Officer" tells us the work may be finished by Christmas, but then again...... He says workers don't know what is under the surface until they get down there, who knows what they may find? Apart from thousands of tons of congealed chicken fat, blocking the sewers, that is. OK enough! Who called 'The planning Officer' a cunt? Better yet who called the cunt a 'Planning Officer'? He couldn't plan a wank if he'd only one arm. We're not likely to find out what horrors lurk beneath that calm and placid thoroughfare any time soon. It will probably be around the time of the Spring equinox when the hungover bastards arrive back skint, looking for the tool they downed aeons before.
Finally, up he pops once again - Diddy Dave 'Fibber' Hibbert, washing his hands of the whole affair as usual. "It's not our fault," he bleats. " Some operations are outside of our control." You have no control you bleeding arsewipe! You and the rest of the band of thieves and rogues in The Ivory Tower lost control of happenings in this town years ago. That's why the town is the shit heap it has now become! If there was any justice we should bury you and your brother deadbeats under the fucking tramline then we could stomp on your fucking heads every time we crossed Union Street to go into Poundtown.
The lying little weaselly shite says, " As a council we are committed to minimising disruption." As a council, WE think you should all be committed, straitjackets, rubber rooms, the full monty.
The little gobshite, who is rapidly becoming the Jeremy Sutcliffe of the modern era, simpers "We apologise for any inconvenience caused." You little turd!!! Fuck off with the crocodile tears. You and the bent brotherhood have been inconveniencing us for years. And you still don't give a fuck!!!
One day we are going to make you and your fellow troughers listen to us. Be prepared! We are coming!
