So incredibly sad about Cllr Pat Karney’s passing. Pat was an icon, a legend, a special politician over decades in Manchester. He was the face and the voice of our city during our happy times and our sad times. Known for his famous Christmas and Manchester celebrations, he was also a great campaigner and never forgot his roots in working class Manchester. He was a true friend to me and to a generation of others. Pat was a total one-off who will be greatly missed and very fondly remembered for years to come. RIP.
I also introduced him to Twitter as it was then - a platform he really enjoyed.

This Brexiteer lives in LA, has never been a poor anything, and there are zero consequences for his actions on him.
