Allen Trashes Bin Men's Pay Cuts

Pop star Lily Allen's actor dad Keith has thrown his support behind Britain's garbage collectors - he's planning a gig to campaign against pay cuts.

The Shallow Grave star is backing a planned strike by refuse workers in Leeds, England after council staff were threatened with huge cuts in their salaries.

And to raise awareness of the industrial action, Allen is taking to the stage at the city's O2 Academy on 18 October (09).

He will sing a selection of songs alongside a 12-piece band.
