@UKLabour Bunch of clowns this was announced in January.

They were announced in January. They’re being reannounced today because Big Green (RWE) and Big Capitalism (KKR), who will benefit from the massive state subsidies already being poured into these projects, have demanded more (to cover rising costs of developing offshore wind). So Labour has obliged with another £1 billion from the so-called National Wealth [Destruction] Fund. Life is truly grand for the crony capitalists.

So how did a property adviser end up posting about Andy Burnham and Abu Dhabi?

All we wanted was a planning permission.

It took Manchester City Council over nine years to give us one. In that time Renaker put up about a dozen towers, seven of them around our site.

My client has owned a site on Great Jackson Street in Manchester for 40 years. In October 2017 we started work on planning for 1,037 flats there. We are Manchester born and bred. Friends in London warned us that development in Manchester was "the Wild West". We didn't know how right they were.

We were told we had to provide £28.8m of affordable housing. So we asked what Renaker's Deansgate Square next door had paid. The answer:- Nothing. Zero. Nada. Zip. 1,508 flats and no section 106 agreement at all. Nobody at Manchester City Council could explain why. On four Renaker schemes MCC has "lost" the viability files.

We were told we had to pay just over £1m as an upfront payment. Exactly £1,000 per flat. Across 20 Renaker towers and 8,543 homes, Manchester City Council took just £487,000. That is £57 a home.

So we kept looking. We found £598m of public loans from Andy Burnham's GMCA to Renaker. Add in the other public sources and it is £868m, to companies controlled by one man. None of these loans were ever publicised and the loan terms remain almost entirely hidden.

It took nearly four years just to get to the planning committee. Over nine years on, nothing is built.

We then asked MCC for permission to knock down our own empty warehouses. It refused, giving ten flimsy reasons. So off to court we went. In January 2026 a High Court judge rejected all ten and held that MCC had "acted unreasonably". That case cost MCC over £200,000 of public money. And for what?

My client also owns the main Royal Mail depot on Oldham Road. MCC has since told us that land sits inside its joint venture with Far East Consortium. It has kept over a third of that agreement hidden, including the plan, and won't show it to us. Why?

So we carried on asking questions.

Then they blocked my emails.

We never set out to investigate anyone. We asked one question, got no answer, and kept digging.

We still are.

Labour loves to criticise Nigel Farage for some of the more dubious Reform supporters. But that's now looking very rich given how Andy Burnham and Ed Miliband embraced Russell Brand and David Walliams, says Steven Tucker. https://t.co/qNtOAkYtAC

When I posted yesterday about Andy Burnham’s political machine secretly intercepting public emails to protect his Abu Dhabi property deals, my inbox was flooded by people thanking me for finally calling out what goes on in Manchester.

Well, I woke up this morning and looked at the latest financial disclosures coming out of the Greater Manchester Combined Authority, and the rabbit hole just got so much darker.

Burnham's authority has been caught funnelling nearly £1,000,000 of taxpayer money to completely anonymous beneficiaries in a series of secret payments.

They paid out £83,000 in rent to a hidden landlord. They handed out thousands in anonymous "consultancy fees." Worst of all, they gave a £210,000 capital grant to a property developer and completely redacted the name from the public ledger.

When journalists finally confronted them, the authority claimed hiding the £210,000 developer payout was just a "human error" and blamed the rest of the secrecy on data protection laws.

Look at the terrifying double standard at play here.

If a working citizen misfiles a tax return by fifty pounds or makes a mistake on a local form, the state will investigate their entire life, apply ruthless penalty fines, and threaten them with court.

But when Burnham's regional authority hands a fifth of a million pounds of public cash to an anonymous property developer, they simply shrug and call it a clerical typo.

This is exactly how the modern British political cartel operates. They use the language of bureaucracy and data protection as a legal shield to funnel public wealth to private, hidden corporate interests.

I am sorry, but they are not governing a city. They are running a shadow ledger with your money, and they are terrified of the public finding out who is actually cashing the checks.

This is government gaslighting to a high degree.
1. It’s not a new announcement. The Norfolk East and West offshore wind projects were announced earlier this year as part of the AR7 round of contracts.
2. No way does it bring down prices. Those behind it, energy giant RWE + global investors KKR, were guaranteed an above-market strike price of £91.20/MWh based on 2024 prices — indexed linked for 20 years. That guarantee is already worth £97/MWh in 2026. This is v expensive energy.
3. What is new is that the costs of developing offshore wind have soared. So the government has now had to chip in £1 billion of the £12 billion investment needed from the National Wealth [Destruction] Fund. So more state subsidy on top of the massive subsidies for two foreign companies implicit in the price guarantees embedded in AR7.
4. Far from cheaper electricity this embeds high-cost electricity in the system for 20 years.
5. So much for the Chancellor’s Budget pledge to ‘only build new projects when they lower prices’. This does the opposite — and at enormous expense to the taxpayer and electricity user.
Gaslighting indeed.

Who remembers last week when all the RB lot and Basil the Rat were foaming at the mouth because Nigel said Reform would review previously approved asylum cases? 😂

Apparently, that was a “weak sauce” concept when Nigel presented it. According to all those complaining we were supposed to just deport everyone.. no questions asked.

Well, well, well… now Rupert’s saying he wants to audit them. An audit is a review, lads. 🤷🏻‍♀️

It’s not some fantasy big fat red DEPORT button you press without asking questions. 😂

I’ll wait for you lot to show Rupert the same outrage you showed Nigel.
