“This is a chance to do regeneration differently... that means using co-operative principles, so people feel genuinely involved in shaping the town’s future.” There's exciting things about to happen in a Greater Manchester town 👇 buff.ly/d9rKvse

Powerful statement from people in GM who have lived in, or are still living in, asylum accommodation. Needs to be shared as widely as possible.

Every day this Summer has been a record of how Nigel Farage already runs the country. An endless cycle of hate & racism. One day boat arrivals, the next releasing ethnicity data for crimes, so we can know whether to riot if they’re brown or shrug if they’re white. Back to the 70s🤦‍♀️ #r4today

Why shouldn't someone assessed by DWP as too unwell to work & facing significant extra costs due to disabilities & poor health receive state support at least around the rate of a minimum wage salary? I spoke to Ian Collins on TalkTV earlier about (misleading) reports today on this subject

GMCA agenda today includes agreement in principle on the establishment of a Mayoral Development Corporation for Middleton followed by a note on the allocation of capital from the Brownfield Housing Fund. Key lessons for both in this report from @drabioconnor.bsky.social at @neweconomics.bsky.social

"Labour/Co-op mayor of Greater Manchester Andy Burnham also spoke at the event. He expressed his support for the campaign, stating that a living income 'should be there for every single person, whoever they are, wherever they come from, in Greater Manchester.'" Fire Keir Starmer and hire this guy.
