There was a headline in the Sheffield Star (Sheffield's biggest local paper).

Homeless living in skips at risk

There is an urban myth that they also had a headline once

Local Man dies of Natural Causes

also urban myths

"POLICE STONED AT ACID HOUSE PARTY"

"MAN FOUND DEAD IN CEMETERY"

Local news is the best. Fuck Egypt, I wanna know more about the whining people in Sheffield.

Saying that though, I've written to my MP twice in the past two weeks. I'm turning into one those who think a strongly worded but polite letter is the way to be the most productive member of society I can be :o
