Labour point both ways in Rochdale

Labour’s Rochdale candidate – Simon Danczuk – has just done a leaflet opposing the idea of fortnightly weekly rubbish collections. He thinks it is a “crazy idea”.

Only one slight problem. Can you guess the connection between the man who is his election agent and the man who was leader of the council when the decision to introduce fortnightly collections was made?

Yup, there are one and the same. So he’s campaigning against something his very own agent introduced. Oops.
