We've been watching the usual pre-planned Labour machine kick into action again over the appointment of the new Labour Leader of Manchester City Council. The Labour Group of 63 Councillors only voted yesterday but new Mayor Bev had already shown her preference, parading Deputy Cllr Garry Bridges around the streets at weekend to ensure Manchester Cllrs knew who to vote for. Cllr Thomas Robinson and Cllr Munaver Rasul didn't stand a chance.

The South Manchester Mafia appear all powerful in the MCC chamber, with Cllr Bridges in the same Old Moat ward as Cllr Gavin White, Exec member for Housing, sealing up the power base. Now they just need to win the Burnage ward with popular Burnage candidate and former Lord Mayor Carl Austin Behan, who was deep in conversation with Cllr Bridges at last week's Pride launch.

Lovely when everyone is such good friends - we wonder if the Central and North Manchester Labour Cllrs feel the same way 😆

Gary Neville’s plan for 723 new flats will provide less than 7% affordable housing. Despite Manchester City Council’s 30% target.

Is this Labour privilege? Moving the goal posts for their supporters?

Gary doesn’t care who gets priced out of the market. Just as long as there are no Union Jacks on any of his sites.

The plans were rejected earlier this year but have been revived.
