THE ROCHDALE GHETTO - FALINGE the GHOST ESTATE grooming gangs & violence.

- Falinge estate, where 72% of people are unemployed, has been named the most deprived area in England for the fifth year in a row, according to The Department for Communities and Local Government.
The estate is home to around 1,500 people - 80 per cent of who are white British.
More than 200 children on the estate are growing up in poverty, with around 800 people claiming council tax or housing benefits.
People living in Falinge are not expected to live beyond the age of 69 - while those living just two miles away in Norden and Banford can expected to live for 10 years longer.
The council's own statistics show Falinge also has one of the highest teenage pregnancy rates in the country, with one in 10 girls giving birth under the age of 18.
The council has has come under criticism locally - Simon Danczuk MP has been a vocal critic of his Labour colleagues running the council. He said: "This latest table for the most 100 deprived areas in England makes very depressing reading for Rochdale."
The council, meanwhile, argues that the number of job seekers in Rochdale is falling faster than the UK average, and that regeneration projects underway include a new school for the Falinge estate.
Council leader Colin Lambert is reported to have claimed the figures do not reflect the current situation and the council is working to give Falinge residents more job opportunities - a similar argument a council spokesman put forward in October 2010 when Falinge was revealed to be Britain’s benefit blackspot with a staggering 84 per cent of residents on benefits. Then a council spokesman said: "The regeneration of the town centre, less than half a mile away from Falinge, will create a number of new jobs which we hope people living close by will take up."
A lot of them girls are no longer with us. suicide from the mental torture from what they went through as children. There’s never been justice RIP
And a lot where scared to talk even till this day, say in flats with panic buttons still living in fear
Yes and the perpetrators are still right now walking in the community laughing at their victim's after being told they would be deported after their sentance which they served about a quarter of.
@johnwarner3809 what you talking about Willis! they will never be deported! 🫣🤔🤒
I really appreciate what you are doing, talking to the Forgotten People and showing the poverty, neglect and deprivation here in the UK. Good Man
Labour run deprived area
Two sides of the same coin Con and Liebour
If people stopped blaming each other and put the work in to improve these areas......
Funded by a Tory government
Deprived by Central government (tories at the time) making massive cuts to council budgets in Labour wards.
@@JB-Thatisme Exactly 👌
the planners of the 60s and 70s got a lot to be ashamed of making those horrible depressing dumps
Hi Billy another rough estate in Rochdale was called Ashfield valley I worked there in the 80s think it's all been knocked down now and new houses built but it was certainly an eye opener for me back then
Shows you the council don't give a fuck.. give the homeless the empty buildings..😢
@@stevendaly3680 THE COUNCIL DON'T STEVEN, WELL VOTE THEM OUT, THEY ARE DOING ABSOLUTELY NOTHING FOR YOU SO WHAT'S THE POINT OF HAVING THEM.
@@michaelobrien9825 People need to attend Council Meetings, Ask questions. Get involved. Vote.
UK has an appalling record on turnouts for all election categories.
I`ve been to some rough places here in the UK. `Been to some rough places in New York City, Mexico City...... none more depressing than Rochdale.
God bless the town - it needs it.
The estate's on the outer edge of the town centre are a lot worse, like Kirkholt, Spotland and New bold
Mental on newbold back in the day
I'm a Rochdale lad, all the money goes on the town centre. They don't care about the people
Contracts mate, same up and down the country they overpay there mates. There is a monument/statue further down Rochdale rd in collyhurst & Manchester council have quoted it will cost them £120,000 to move it. Who do you think will win the contract 😂 I’m guessing me and four of my mates could do it for fun, it’s so backwards but they just make sure their pals all get paid
All the money goes on the town Centre, and it’s still a massive dump.
Zombie land last time I went there!
When I was 8, I lived in a tower block on Brittarge Brow, Netherley in the mid 1970's. Moved there from Dingle. Grim looking housing estate for sure. But the kids would play outside and roam for miles safely. This country has got much, much worse in one generation
Spot on
Take a walk round Eastwood in Rotherham. The local authority thought it would be a good idea to bring in loads of Slovakian Roma gypsies and house them there. Turns out it wasn’t such a good idea - who’d have thought!
Take a look at the video from Bald and Bankrupt (Lunik 9) The Slovak authorities want the areas cleared out.
@@Robert-A-R Same in Page Hall Sheffield.
@@Northerner1966 yes I know - and both those areas have had rat infestations since the arrival of that ‘persecuted minority’
All these empty gaffs all over the country and empty army bases yet people are homeless. Those army bases could facilitate medical services rehab and all sorts of training services to get people back on their feet and it would take some of the pressure off the nhs
Also churches mosques synagogues and temples I remember standing in the pouring rain in Chester waiting and hoping that the outreach team from the night shelter would pick me up ... from where I was I could see three churches and you can't tell me that any God wants the doors to his house locked and his people left in the rain
@@scottohare8355 good shout, cos there's loads of places allover the British isles, it's absolutely crazy that there's all these derelict buildings and all these homeless, there's a lot of things they could do with these empty spaces, I just don't get it, makes me angry.
@@SMALLAXE. Good comment 👌.
I think its evident the elite rich pedophiles of the world dont give a toss about us peasants,everyone knows why the homeless etc aren't in these places....they put migrants in the barracks and bases,and hotels etc because there's alot of profit to the elites by population growth in each country,safety of peasants dont even register because they're vile evil ferals. All we are to them is lab rats. There's no profit in helping people,no profit in 'cures' no profit in longterm good quality made 'goods' there's no profit in being a human being.
@MichaelParkinson-wz1nh councils have no passion anymore. It isn't about the people. when all this voting going on its about power between themselves to see who wins. Labour making changes already from what they promised.
Seven sisters are more than half empty that's why the ghost town effect
This is why i dislike life you dont have too look very far too find injustice everywhere
No expense spared on the council offices though!!🤔
And contracts to their mates 💷 💷 💷
I was living in Accrington 1985,I visited a family freinds in Rochdale my freind pointed out the 7 sister flats,I thought they would have been demolished by now
I was in care back in the late 80's with a lad from Rochdale always remember him saying how rife it was for pedos back then! Sounds like not much has changed.
Billy you are on the ball top man don't forget liverpool was like that in the 80s
@@ianbroughton2987 granby st was still like that in the 90s, used to go there from Lancaster, and luckily we knew one or two, but I think I remember Frenchy and his mate, but if you pulled up, you got blocked in, and you were checked over, and if you didn't know anyone, I seen a car load of lads get surrounded one time, and handed over £150 pounds, which was a wad back then, and one of the tallest lads, pulled a bit of pebble dashing off the wall and give them that, for their money, what the fuck you gonna do about it, 10/15 stood round in combat gear, and the long leather trench coat and boots on, swinging there jacket open, and everyone of them packing sub machine guns in there jacket. Crazy times then, but the youth of today think we're still green and don't know anything, if it wasn't for us, they wouldn't know diddly.
Respect to what your doing my m8, wish I could have been able to meet you when you were in Manchester and give you some history of some of my city there's a lot more to Manchester than people think, good luck m8
Early in the vid was like something out of ‘I Am Legend’ after the zombie apocalypse. Not a soul to be seen anywhere!
That eastern restaurant is the best curry house about I used to live in Rochdale in a supported recovery house abstinence based and found that restaurant now I travel from Salford to go there it seriously is excellent 👌
All them empty flats man and yet lots of homeless people in need of one of them aswel init!. ✨💫✨👌
Ma mams lives in Rochdale about 10 mins from there, and it's nice, (ashworth Rd way)... I work up and down the country, and you'll find places just as desolate and neglected on the outskirts of all major city's tbf... sad as fuck. Lack of community, and integration of people from other countries, has left these kind of places left out by the local authorities. "Just sent ma mam the link and is I'm typing this she just msgd me saying, "I wouldn't walk round there, proper sithole!" 😂.
Can't believe how dead it is..
Jesus, you get about u lad, scored round the seven sisters, not been round there for years, but it was a rough area back then, never been to the falinge estate, though, and thank fcuk i ain't, didn't have a jar a glue, what the guy,patrick, said, he sounded like a traveller, Rochdale will now be known as the groom town, not the boom town. Thanks again Billy, always look forward to a Billy video, hope you're Joe is doing good, and glad to hear you're Terry is nesting, he deserves it. Hope England win tonight Billy, might give the country a bit of a lift, once again thank you mate 👌.

@@MichaelParkinson-wz1nh You stole my pic and profile.
@@MichaelParkinson-wz1nh I say neer because of my hair lip.
I have family in Rochdale who were born and bred there.To say its rough is an understatement. Its an absolute foul crime infested cesspit which is run an owned by a certain demographic. Child Grooming is still rife , they are just a bit more careful so they dont get caught.
The failings flats are all empty and boarded up because they are being demolished. Poor old dogdale ( as the locals call it) it’s had a good kicking over the years. I remember it in the 1970’s, it was a good, salt of the earth northern town. Always a bit rough and ready, but nowhere near as bad as it is now. Mass immigration into the town caused severe overcrowding, still does. Most decent folk have or are leaving the place, too much drugs and no affordable housing. ✌🏻
How upsetting 😞 not much difference here in Stoke 🥺
Patrick Ward is definitely a traveller man.
The designers of the 19th century ones must’ve been deluded,high on incense sticks or just plain evil 😂
85% unemployment rate on that estate the freehold estate 5 minutes up the road is as bad.
Shame just left to rot
Labour run dumps
lived on that estate in the mid ninties cant belive it hasnt been knocked down yet, seen some shit in my time but ill always remember that shithole

That's a really disgusting, and racist, comment.

@@theallornothingpodcastwith4442 actually you've walked around and showed the place.....not something the MPs possible ever done..
I live over the border in rossendale can see the Seven Sisters on a clear day on hill top behind me 8 miles as the crow flies
Rochdale is actually a nice place, better than most places in uk people always knock it
I remember watching a documentary about a school in Rochdale called ‘Waterloo Road’ … it appeared to have a decent community vibe but was run down then… things clearly haven’t improved since.
That wasn't a documentary it was a soap with actors like Grange Hill
Need to try and line up a podcast with Mazza, more than likely you heard of him but he's just got out after ten years and man made it big time rapping in jail
NO DISRESPECT, BUT WHOM IN THEIR CORRECT THINKING MIND WOULD ACTUALLY WANT TO LIVE THERE, ONLY ONE TYPE.
what year did they put,the slanted roofs on?
Get down belle vale shopping centre bill
Complete shit hole Rochdale... If only they put the money spend on the town center into the surrounding areas.
Great video billy
7 sisters mad place couple years back
Did you check the JD gym out whilst you were down there kid it's massive two floors
Have you ever lived in a tower block?
Tower blocks are good size home's with under ground garages. In days gone by when you was on a council list you lived in tower block or maisonette. For so many years and then if you wanted a house went on a house list. When a house came avaliable in the area you chose they'd offer you a house.better organised councils and it would work. Friends who stayed in there flat's were forced to move the council's selling them off. In preston lancashire it's happening now at the moment in avanham Manchester road. Some have taken the payoff. Some don't want to move it's been there home for over 40yrs. In the same area kendel house, 2 blocks, said there was dangerous and need pulling down think early 90s. Sold off and still there. Now called Sandown court. Private investors can see the potential in them not many city centre houseing have good parking. Councils have no passion anymore.
No
@@mirandamcmanus2097 I used to have a mate from avenham in Preston, and he was the only white lad on his street, but the asians were very good to him, they fed him well.

@@theallornothingpodcastwith4442Billy is the anything you can do about the nobhead who's stolen my profile,
Mine ends wz1nh and the false one ends wz1nn. And the fraud one is a sad fucker with 3 subs, I'll get my brother in law on the case he's a brief, and I'll sue this little saddo, who's mum wants him out, cos she wants her boxroom back 😆. I'm not a violent person anymore, but I tell you Billy, I'd show this little wrongun facts of life, i probably got shot hole's older and harder than this un. Billy it's getting me angry, and I don't want to be angry, I really enjoy your vids and out and abouts, thanks if you can do anything about it, it's actually quite upsetting mate, just the not knowing.
That area is bad for violent crime SA, stabbings ect rises year on year they even bashed and tried to SA and elderly lady on her day walk to the shop😢, drugs is a big problem and so is poverty tbh, stay safe 😊
Darnhill in heywood Manchester is a very rough estate, I have some proper game lads from Darnhill
Like who
Bill are you doing anything in London?
Looks ok there
Can't understand why you didn't document the refurbished part of Lower Falinge, instead of continually focusing on just two empty blocks (Newstead and Zedburg). You didn't report on the blocks currently under modernisation or the newly built houses and apartment blocks on Falinge, nor the Childrens new play park and kick pitch . You focused a lot on the shopping precinct which by the time you'd arrived had mostly closed for business for the day because it was late. And as for your one-legged mate, he regularly asks passers-by for loose change, despite him claiming the highest rate living and mobility components of PIP and Universal Credit totalling £1,130.65 per month. Maybe you should re-visit Lower Falinge and speak to some of the longstanding (pardon the pun) residents who'll gladly show you what's being done to improve the neighbourhood, and how they're taking control and working with the landlord and council to shape the estate's future. Go visit Newbold and Freehold as some have suggested in the comments, and then compare them to Falinge. You'll be surprised at what you see. By the way, the grooming gangs you refer to in the video's title were not based on the Falinge Estate, but elsewhere in the town.
Heywood is a town in the Metropolitan Borough of Rochdale.
I thought you knew what you were on about till your last sentence, there was multiple grooming gangs and one of them was directly across the road in and around spotland rd, the leader of that particular gang tired to groom me under the pretence that I'd just be selling a bit of weed, next min I'm introduced to the crack community, my mates sisters house got Cuckood (new term) she was killed in a car accident the guy ran off. I don't think you understand how bad it was mate 26 years for the ring leader that was operating in my little area
@lukebowden3618 I agree, the grooming gangs were on and around Spotland Road, but Lower Falinge is a housing estate and none of the grooming gangs or its associates were based on the estate. I know what I'm talking about as I've lived on the estate for over 20 years and I know what's going on in AND AROUND the neighbourhood.
