Boris has just given a massive 2 finger salute to poor Andy Burnham and all the citizens of Greater Manchester by giving them a paltry 22 million as opposed to the 60 he offered this lunchtime. Why couldn't he honour what he'd proposed?

Rat.

Johnson should wear 2 roll holders on his shoulders with toilet rolls permanently in place to catch all the s..t that comes out his mouth.

It's not my way to personally insult however this discredited, inept and dictatorial PM is an utter disgrace.

He's nothing other than one of the worst of political deceivers and liars, totally false.

For some context, Boris spent £50m on a bridge that was never built, whilst mayor of London.

Don't forget his water cannons which could never be used.

Who did you vote for? Because you were a tory in the threads.

Labour offered out of control borrowing which we can't afford to do

Well I've come to expect not a thing that should be forthcoming from him as a PM of all the Country.

While that's devastating for others on the receiving end, he doesn't disappoint on that.
Just runs to form on it all the time.
With his extreme and in my view heartless ways.

Yet gets support.
Unbelievable.

That's us ****ed then

These ***** will always hold the North in contempt.

From what I gather is Burham wanted an extra £5m 9f what was on offer and wouldn't back down so Boris forced locksown and got petty by offering less then half

All playing politics

There are more patients in hospital in Greater Manchester with Covid, than in entire SE and SW of the country

They should be locked down never mind Tier 3

It's NOT playing politics trying to protect peoples incomes as much as is needed to be when they're forced not to work even if they want to.

You just quoted the 2 lower areas of the Country.
Very selective.

Burnham gave him a detailed costings, it wasn't jus a case of "you wanted this, but will you accept this?"

...and now he’s saying that Burnham knows his door is always open for discussion after cutting to less than a bone...there is nothing more to take and strip away so what is he expecting in his open doorway...he’s so disingenuous...

I heard on a news report earlier Burnham started at 90 m and was happy to negotiate down to 65 hard to know who to believe in all honesty

Im quoting what Stephen Powys just said, what do you mean by lower area?

67 per cent plus universal credit top up is 80 per cent according to Bojo...what do you make it?

Well little point in answering as you seem to know anyway.

I think you'll find for some that will be the case not all.
Never mind who cares about some low paid workers losing income.
It doesn't matter to some I guess.

Prime example of my earier point... Do you really think any regional lock down will keep Covid out of SE and SW?

Explain how regional lock down works for businesses... they keep trading but only in Manchester? The rest of the country cannot access goods and services from tier 3 areas?
