Ernest, worthy but dull, single and debonair, ex school teacher and Liberal Democrat MP for Rochdale has improved his PMQ techniques and he recently managed to unearth some fascinating information about the pension arrangments of the Judiciary in England and Wales. He asked the Secretary of State for Justice (1) what the average payment per person to members of the Judicial Pension Scheme was

The extraordinary bias of the Rochdale Observer in favour of Sir Cyril Smith and his latter day cronies Dave Hennigan and Paul Rowen MP and against his opponents' reasonable observations continues apace. It is extraordinarily difficult to satisfactorily explain this deference indeed reverence through any normal, reasonable editorial choices. What's going on? He may be an old man but hey, he took buckets...

Clearly the dirty dirty media manipulating bastardos paid by the tax payer to carry out Paul Rowen MP's every casework requirement are not paid to interfere on party political matters or indeed to protect the memory of scumbag asbestos-pants Sir Cyril or pants-on-fire Lord Norman Smith. But Swish Tony condemnation of Cyril's asbestos cover up story does not end there. Scroll to the bottom half of...

Given the mighty allegations against slap-happy Cyril, chastising the bare asses of miscreant youths of a tender age at Cambridge House in Rochdale, it was interesting to see former headteacher Paul Rowen squirming on a Party People special on smacking presented by Rob McLoughlin. Rowen was against parents smacking. But regretted his own smack happy behaviour of the past when he had held the whip...

MP for Rochdale meltdown Paul Rowen has been tying himself in knots when it comes to asbestos. Piss poor Paul, as he is known, is particularly getting it in the neck for pretending the stuff is safe in our public buildings, like schools, when it clearly is not. Leigh Carlisle (27) became the youngest asbestos cancer death the very week the New Statesman explained about the Turner asbestos cover up,...

Lovely to see Paul Rowen MP on his feet in the house just yesterday : Paul Rowen (Shadow Minister, Work & Pensions; Rochdale, Liberal Democrat) | > In context I am sure that my hon. Friend is aware that there is a part of my constituency where three quarters of people are on one form of benefits or another; I know that the Secretary of State is aware of that, because he visited my constituency earlier...

ENNIGAN! Mentioned in passing before. This is a comment at Rochdale Online made by Paul Rowen MP's Constituency Assistant Dave Hennigan, paid entirely from Rowen's Allowances but doing little that is not party political the whole long day. Abdul Chowdry - whose name Hennigan cannot seem to bring himself to spell correctly even in his later apologies for apologies - was a well loved community activist,...

We have now added a scan of this week's midweek Rochdale Obbie letters page - running 4-0 against Sir Cyril Smith MBE and Paul Rowen MP - dubbed the dog that didn't bark. This includes letters from known Labour and Tory activists as well as unaffiliated environmental campaigners. Here is the previous week's scan: Counting the previous two Saturdays we get a three-all count for and against spanker-Smith's...

Paul Rowen has switched by way of screeeching U-Turn from a "benefit of hindsight", from "not excusing the inexcusable", from praising the 1982 Yorkshire TV Alice documentary kinda fella, albeit highly confused about the safety and desirability of redeveloping the TBA Killing Fields of the Spodden Valley, to a bit of an excuser. Meanwhile there is this fairly useless piece of mortality statistic propaganda....

Hold your breaths you people. More along anon. Meanwhilst here is one of the Stockport Lib Dems equivalents of Dangerous Dave Drunkalot. Working this time not for the closed book of Cyril-hero-worship Paul Rowen MP but for the maverick Chris Davies MEP. Someone who, as you may recall, apparently organised a rule change and an early eligibility-to-vote guillotine. Preventing his dear colleague Sajj...

When I saw the tag and the headline I thought it might be Paul Rowen MP giving Dave Drunkagain the bum's rush. Heaven knows Dave cannot keep his feet when he's drunk and disorderly! We've seen him flat on his arse more than once. But on this occasion the argy bargy involved Messrs Littlewood, a knifed former Cowley Street spin doctor, and one Adrian Sanders MP (who?) a man with even less chance of...

With all the local press now on the case to shame Sir Cyril Smith MP for his deathly mistakes on asbestos - based on current revelations. And with more dynamite documents in an inevitable pipeline to publication ... the Rochdale Lib Dem brains trust met at Paul Rowen's office on wednesday night. It was a kind of Summit Meeting. "We're going to have to do summat" was the consensus. But they had no...

My sources within the Rochdale Libdemologist cult tell me that for the second time in a year David "call me Dave" Hennigan is planning to desert the sinking ship that is Lib Dem Rochdale, specifically perhaps deserting the dysfunctional MP Paul Rowen - the worst parliamentary representative in the town's history, and that includes the bare-lost-boys-arse-slapping, hang Stephan Kisko, asbestos-is-food-of-the-gods...

We're hearing that the thrusting young Rochdale Liberal Democrat Mohammed Shafiq (right with Cyril Smith in 2005), best known as a regular TV and media pundit on behalf of the Ramadhan Foundation , stunned the worst MP in Rochdale's history - that's Paul Rowen - into spluttering silence, if that's possible, by asking what must have been a very direct and very difficult question. But what exactly was...
