Other links didn't work for me. ???


Neither does Burnham.
  Vote for Nick Buckley in the Mayoral election, he says he'll hold a referendum on the office of Mayor, if the people vote for abolition, he'll take the petition to Parliament to have the position abolished.
  But people need to vote because Burnham was elected by a small number of voters due to low turn out, all Burnham has done is rip off council tax payers with his 'precepts' (three so far and bet on a fourth next year for his bus foray)

Andy's gone quiet on rough sleepers. The pics I see are astonishing,migrants are coming from many UK areas because they know someone in Manchester. They are not being taken in because it is a crime.

It’s a pity that some very wealthy organisation or people cannot organise a massive public advertising campaign against Burnham like peel holdings did when the congestion charge was mooted  some years back .

Andy should go. Why? because I want a man with vision,inovation.
Perhaps I'm missing something,building building,more of the same.
I have always been proud of Manchester,up there with the best,but all I can see is
Jodrell and a shopping mall copied from others.
The only shineing light is The Docks,Lowrey center,a blank canvas,but all they see is a buiding opportunity.
They could have had a small scale rapid transport system to view the area,preferably high above ground. A link to the Trafford,or Etihad.
Did'nt the first railway come here? Since then ,old trams,new trams,old buses new buses,new lanes same speed.
A hundred years,stuck stuck in the same mind frame. Time for change.No,that was let slip through the fingers long ago by small minded men.

Agree with most of that but do you know any other politician who would give 15% of their salary to help the homeless?

I’ve just looked at the mayor election candidates pamphlet , a couple of crackpots on there , the independent guy ticks my box but it’s reform for me I just hope they don’t take votes from each .
