Kicked out of the #Stretford M32 group likely for calling out a glossy community video that looked like a vanity project for Jane Slater, Labour’s likely candidate. Bruntwood Trafford Council Stretford Town Centre should stay impartial not push political PR Stretford deserves better
Public officials like Cllr Jane Slater can’t control public discussion. Residents can share and comment on public statements and images—social media isn’t their private press office. #stretford #trafford
Labour Cllrs have tried to get me to remove a post and have even accused me of being a bully. This goes against Trafford Council stated values. Residents have a right to share opinions and hold public officials accountable. I shall not be silenced #trafford #stretford
This is a fair point Jonathan Coupe residents deserve better transparency and timely updates on decisions that affect their services and financial planning. Looking forward to your response Cllr Tom Ross
Another example of Trafford Labour’s poor management of Trafford Council 10 days with no reply on the Draft Council Budget 2026/27. Residents deserve better and time to plan their finances for the year ahead. Even a Labour Cllr says this delay must be addressed. #trafford
33 days since I wrote to Cllr Tom Ross asking when Trafford Council will publish its Draft Budget 2026/27. No reply. No draft. No timetable. Other GM councils are consulting residents. Trafford Labour Council isn’t. What are they hiding? #trafford
🚨 Trafford Council Draft Budget 26/27 ⬆️Council Tax set to rise 4.99% every year until 2029. 📉A £34m funding gap, £20.6m emergency financial support, services under pressure and £10.6m of council assets to be sold. 📉Another £17m in savings & income still to come.#trafford
🚨 Labour & Cllr Tom Ross have blocked #Trafford residents from questioning the Draft Budget on 14/01/26 breaching the constitution Budget ⬆️ 4.99% council tax 💷 £20.6m bailout 🏢 £10.6m asset sales ❌ No questions. No scrutiny. Why shut residents out? democratic.trafford.gov.uk/ieListDocument…
