Positive about Rochdale

There is a lot of bad things happening in Rochdale, but there is plenty of good too, but the local media usually highlights the negative, and so people think all is bad. Similarly people on here often only highlight the negative of the place.

A lot what is wrong in people's lives, would be just as bad, maybe even worse wherever they lived. If someone is so unhappy with the town, then move, see if the grass is greener on the other side, it might not be. If you don't live here, then don't come here if it's that bad here.

I've always said bad news seems to get published at a drop of a hat about Rochdale. But very little good news (other than the usual outlets) its like Rochdale is a by word for everything bad that goes on. To which 'Trolls' are all to eager to spout and captailise on. I go on other news forums and the amount of bile that is spouted at any given chance. I challenge them with comments like 'why are you still here if you hate that much' or 'what do you suggest' when Trolls kick off against the latest opening of busineses they go really quiet.

Some fab parts in London. Hammersmith, Highgate, Chiswick spring to mind but there are some parts that make Rochdale look like Monte Carlo.
