Angry. Disappointed. Speechless.
A total disregard for the relentless work @AndyBurnhamGM and our Leaders have done to keep people in our City region from poverty.
I will make my feelings on this shambolic Government decision clear tomorrow.
The fight will go on.
Let's just consider again the madness of this:
1) The North is in Tier 2 for three months - We get nowt.
2) London is in Tier 2 for one day - "Urgent offers of more support."
3) Northern cities say Tier 3 only with more support - "Sorry, no money, stop putting us over a barrel."
In Manchester, @BorisJohnson says the situation is worsening with every passing day.
Am I going mad or is he?
As of 11 Oct, ave positive tests decreased for 8 days in a row, & 19% lower than on 3rd Oct.
In all of GM, new positive tests are flat.
@AndyBurnhamGM
Understand the concerns from London-based media & businesses about the impact of Tier 2.
But please remember: GM-based businesses have been under these restrictions for 10 weeks with no support.
This is why we’re fighting so hard. It’s about survival. Cities should join forces.
“They are willing to sacrifice jobs and businesses here to save them elsewhere”
Manchester Mayor Andy Burnham says regions in the north “are being set up as the canaries in the coal mine for an experimental regional lockdown strategy” and “it won’t work”

Went to an actual real life meeting yesterday - first since February. Only just recovering from the thrill of it! Thanks for having me @Crossfieldltd@oconnorlucy
Well chuffed to be shortlisted in the #PRCADAREAwards for Small Consultancy of the Year and Low Budget Consumer Campaign of the Year. We are among some greats too so the going will be tough. Fingers crossed!
Really enjoyed @mrmichaelfro’s Q&A as part of today’s #PRCAVirtualSummit. Good to know that as the owner of a small agency, I’m in the same boat as the big guns when it comes to the challenges of #Covid_19
