Washing Machine Philco RWD 1042?

Power goes in, but the system wont rotate and when it does, instead of washing, instead the clothes are spinned dry, they become hot but remain dirty!!

would indicate that the cold valve is faulty or your cold water supply is not getting through to the machine. Check for kinks in the water hoses - if they're ok turn off the hose taps, remove hoses and check the plastic filters in the valve inlet connection. You will need a pair of thin pliers to grip the filter tab and pull it out. Clean any debris off with a toothbrush, rinse and reinstall in valve. Check the cold tap and hose by turning off the tap and disconnecting the hose from the machine, hold it over the sink or bucket and turn the tap on just a fraction to start with to see if water is getting through, if it is then open it up a bit more to make sure it is flowing freely, if that is OK then replace it and check the solenoid on the valve.
