We need more social housing for a fairer Manchester. That’s why Manchester is building 10,000 social & council homes - already delivering more

We want to see an urgent ceasefire and the assault on Rafah stopped. Despite serious, fast moving developments in Gaza the Foreign Sec isn’t accountable to MPs & Ministers only come when forced. The Commons should have its say on them being accountable.

Last year my wife and I received charitable status for our Foundation.

The Foundation was set up to help young people across Greater Manchester forge a career in Events and Hospitality.

Today, we announce its first initiative.

Cut VAT for the hospitality industry and actually support the sector! 🍻

Politics can be brutal sometimes. Manchester Labour holds 86/96 seats but I’m saddened that my friend and colleague Cllr Luthfur Rahman OBE didn’t get back in.

Change starts with you. Join Labour today 🌹
