...I don’t think it’s enough though, Vanessa...it still falls short of what’s needed and essential needs can’t be cut in that way...

Haha manchester is the dumbest. no wonder the city is such a **** hole. Glad to have escaped.

Its not enough. The 65 was the bare minimum they need not want.

...it’s not a political game to state what the minimum is that is needed as the financial package, which is surely what has been done...to cut that short would be the ‘game’ I would say...

I know, it's still going to be hard. :(

...yeah...so har Vanessa...I think it’s already hard, lovely...What’s trying to be achieved for people is ‘possible’..., you know...

Look no matter how much he gives, we and generations to come will be paying for these hand outs.

Look Kate

Johnson offered 60million pounds



But Poxy Burnhan said NO
I demand 65million




Kate
he should have taken the £60million pounds
do YOU not agree.

...essentials for people to live isn’t a ‘hand out’...it’s exactly what it says...essential to live...

I heard that the government are now going to bypass Burnham and talk to the manchester area leaders about funding, makes sense as he is being an ass

Never trust a Tory

Love this analysis

No Arista I don't agree. Even if you go big and bold.

He already conceded right down to the bare minimum. What does Boris expect? Blood?

He is Crazy
not to take the 60Million pounds
many locals agree with that

not if its not enough.

It needs to be Front page

Burnham says NO
to 60Million Pounds

Boris: *offers 60*
Andy: ‘actually we need a bit more than that to fully manage what we need to do please’
Boris: *reduces it to 20*

But of course, it’s not Boris that’s playing games

Arista is bristling tonight

60million is a great amount
take it.


But no he demanded just £5million more

Now this is an analysis. Well said.

but Kate, we know Burnham is playing political games, liverpool accepted the same deal, so why should Burnham get more than the people of liverpool, it's the same jobs, in the same conditions. No-one likes or wants the current situation, but it's also true that people will demand what they think they can get, and Burnham chose to play political games with the lives of the people in Manchester to hold the government to ransom, and that was never going to happen

No Arista he ASKED for 5 million more having already been haggled down a hell of a lot.

To help the people of Manchester. I imagine if this was happening anywhere south of Birmingham, they wouldnt even have to ask for the money.

Manchester is bigger than Liverpool ergo it needs more money.
