Last month the launch of No Turn Unstoned saw a small back room of The Racecourse pub buzzing with live acts, as comedienne, Sufiya Rehman, tried out new material, compere Mike Skeffington read out grotesque rhyming stories, and Bernie's posse of musicians rocked along. Meanwhile, poets and bar room comedians also got up and did a bit as the floor went open and the words got tasty…

This month's mayhem promises more of the same and then some…Not repeat not - for the easily offended!

No Turn Unstoned presents `Throw 'em a Kipper' at The Racecourse Hotel, Littleton Road, Lower Kersal Saturday 12th December – any time from around 8pm free entry…

Thanks to everyone who attended last months little gettogether, especially those who contributed and thanks to Steve for supporting us with some publicity. What we need though is people to get involved and just enjoy it. Our aim is to show that people in Salford are talented and imaginative and you don't have to travel to Manchester to get alternative entertainment. Thanks to everyone and we'll see you on saturday.

SALFORD STAR VERSUS SALFORD COUNCIL

Star date: 28th July 2010  

SALFORD COUNCIL REJECTS STAR APPEAL

"…you haven't published any positive stuff on MediaCityUK" John Merry

Yesterday, Salford City Council's Cabinet rejected Salford Star's appeal against the Council's decision to stop the city's community committees from funding the community magazine. One of the reasons given was that Salford Star hadn't done any positive stories on MediaCityUK.

Meanwhile, evidence that the Council brought to the `trial' purporting to show that the Salford Star was `not balanced' in its coverage, we believe, was totally discredited. But the goalposts kept shifting…

The jibe came during an agenda item on a new report into Child Poverty which revealed that close to 60% of the city's children are currently living in poverty. Councillor Connor accused the Government of undermining the Council's attempts to ease child poverty in the city through its cutbacks.

SALFORD COUNCIL REVEALS ALMOST 60% OF OUR KIDS LIVE IN POVERTY

A report out today titled `Ending Child Poverty IN Salford' sets out the true extent of child poverty in Salford. And it's absolutely shocking.

While previous estimates and official statistics have been based on children living in `workless households' and shown a rate hovering around 30%, new figures taking into account `low income working households' show that "the true level of all child poverty in Salford could be closer to 60%".
