A statement from the Miss England organisers said Christie, 21, a niece of the sprinter Linford Christie, wanted to concentrate on clearing her name. She was involved in a dispute with Miss Manchester,...

It's Big And Purple

I was working in Rusholme, which I think is part of Greater Manchester, this morning. I didn't like it much. After a while even Normanton was beginning to seem rather attractive in comparison, and that's saying something, believe me. Sorry, any Normanton or Rusholme readers. Sorry that you live in such horrible places. Anyway, back I came, and then it was very busy in the office, and Mum came over...

No One In Their Right Mind Picks a Fight With a Manchester Woman!

She was released on bail pending further enquiries. Was Jim Linville there by chance, taking photos for one of his many ‘mardi gras’ [...]

Rachel Christie Loses Cool, Miss England Crown in Bar Fight with Sara Beverley Jones

Reigning Miss England beauty pageant title holder Rachel Christie has given up her crown after being accused of getting into a bar fight, according to UK sources. Pageant organizers say Christie, a 21-year-old heptathlete, has also withdrawn from next month's Miss World finals in South Africa to focus on clearing her name. This will also give her more time to train for the 2012 Olympics. British newspapers...

Manchester's Literary Renaissance

I couldn't help smiling at this posting in the Guardian about Manchester's Literary Renaissance, if only because of its somewhat haphazard nature. The Manchester literary scene ebbs and flows over the years, with magazines, readings, writers falling in and out of the city as life and literature changes for all of them. At this point in time, there's certainly a critical mass of writers based in Manchester,...

5 great organic breweries

People often say that organic beer is boring and dull. More generous souls might say it's inevitably compromised, because the organicness takes priority over the beer being fantastic. Indeed, it's a bit suspect when the most interesting thing a brewery has to say about its beer is that it's organic. We've all encountered the sad selection of two or three beers in wholefood shops, bought one or more...

Urban abandonment - not just Detroit?

Inspired by Jo Guldi's post Bulldozing Your Neighbours: Development Plans in the Rust Belt , her longer piece at the Commonweal Institute and a general buzz around this topic in the US, I want to do some thinking about urban depopulation - in the UK. The urban population is expanding. Cities now contain over 50% of the world's population, and 90% of UK residents live in urban areas . Nationally it's...

Boxing Giants

This is David Haye. He’s a boxer (although I think the photo probably gives that away somewhat). His nickname is The Hayemaker. He’s 6’3” and fights as a heavy weight. He would be considered in many circles rather a large, threatening man. This is a picture of him next to the guy he’s fighting this weekend: I can assure you that no perspective tricks are being played in...

Kaiwayne Rooney

With nothing better to write about in the early part of this week I resort once again to the local news headlines and am greeted with yet more easily dismissible ‘news’. Wayne Rooney and his missus have had a baby, if you hadn’t heard. They’ve called it Kai, or, if, like me, you heard the news report from the rather fast talking presenter, Kaiwayne. Kaiwayne Rooney – catchy....

MUM-of-three Beth Hoyle claims an Asda till worker refused to serve her because she was wearing a wristband backing injured troops.

Beth says the checkout lad told her the band for Help for Heroes - aided by The Sun - meant she supported the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan. And when she complained to a supervisor, he BACKED the Asian youth , saying he was entitled to his view. Beth, 40, who has two brothers in the services, said the checkout worker told her he didn't want to serve her because of "what she was wearing." Shocked...

UK: MI5 Tried to Bribe Terror Suspect

By Elham Asaad Buaras The Muslim News | 30 October 2009 The UK’s secret service (MI5) is being accused of perverting the course of justice by offering a 33 year-old terror suspect inducements to drop a law suite against agents who colluded in his torture. Rangzieb Ahmed , from Rochdale, says during his detention in Pakistan he had three of his fingernails ripped out by the Directorate for Inter-Services...
