WE HAVE DONE IT.
70+ miles walked, over £1500 raised and thousands of aches and pains accumulated🤣
Thanks everyone for the support. Special mention to @Thehullboy1 for joining us on the final stretch.

Instead of her trip to LBC studios maybe she could’ve volunteered at a food bank?
'Is that a really good use of his time?'
'Raising money for a cancer charity?'
The Green Party's @floschechter brands Andy Burnham going on Gogglebox as 'ridiculous'.

Hope Cook’s learned his Mandeville lesson now. Best end product in the squad by a mile. Lad can play any position and always produces

For those mocking the PM for going on Gogglebox:
It's for Stand Up to Cancer.
For those mocking his tattoo:
It's the Manchester Bee, done after the Manchester Arena Attack, where 22 died and 100's more were injured.

If Manchester United get rid of Michael Carrick they get rid of the individual who cares most about the Club. Carrick cares for United far more than the Glazers do (obviously), more than Ratcliffe, Wilcox & Berrarda do, more than Bruno Fernandes & the underachieving players #MUFC

Not excusing the subs, which he got wrong but I don't watch the team and feel concerned. Especially that first half. Plenty of the season left coyb

There are too many entertaining Pat Karney stories to list here but aside from the very obvious fun side of him, Pat was a very smart politician, a passionate supporter of Manchester and a joy to deal with as a journalist. He’ll be missed.
Charlie Walden retweeted
I’m deeply saddened to hear that Pat Karney has died.
Pat gave nearly 50 years of his life to serving Manchester. He saw the city through some of its toughest times and played his part in the growth and transformation that followed.
I knew Pat for many years. He loved Manchester deeply and was a tireless champion for the people he represented.
I’ll miss him greatly. My thoughts are with his family and everyone who knew and loved him.

Absolutely devastated to hear of the passing of Pat Karney. He was full of stories and jokes, and he was so supportive of local journalists and had a massive impact on the city’s LGBTQ+ movement over the years. There was quite frankly no one like him. manchestereveningnews.co.uk/…
Charlie Walden retweeted
This is very sad news.
He will be missed and his passing is a real loss.
Pat was such a champion of our city, and always spoke up for all mancunians.
He understood the deep roots and history of our city, but was also a pioneer for the growth of Manchester and our future too.💔

Thanks to all our staff and tens of thousands of visitors that has achieved this.

The front page of tomorrow's edition of the Manchester Evening News. RIP, Pat Karney. We'll miss you.
I’m absolutely heartbroken. Pat gave me so much time on so many occasions, and would have loved this time of year with the Christmas market. Rest easy my friend you are a legend 💙 @patkarney

He loved the Christmas season.💙💙
"Our mission on the council is to bring people together to celebrate their city."
The Manchester Christmas Market officially opened today with 240 stalls across nine different locations in the city centre.
That's TV caught up with Christmas spokesperson, @patkarney.

So incredibly sad about Cllr Pat Karney’s passing. Pat was an icon, a legend, a special politician over decades in Manchester. He was the face and the voice of our city during our happy times and our sad times. Known for his famous Christmas and Manchester celebrations, he was also a great campaigner and never forgot his roots in working class Manchester. He was a true friend to me and to a generation of others. Pat was a total one-off who will be greatly missed and very fondly remembered for years to come. RIP.
I also introduced him to Twitter as it was then - a platform he really enjoyed.

Devastated by the loss of Pat Karney. He was so much more than a colleague he was my mentor, a giant for Manchester, and above all, a true friend.
Pat was always the one who showed up and stood by us.
My heart goes out to his family. Rest in peace, Pat.Thank you for everything

Bryan Cranston has written a tribute for his ‘Breaking Bad’ on-screen son RJ Mitte who tragically passed away due to suicide.
“We were texting each other just a few weeks ago - figuring out when we could meet for lunch. I don't know if that lunch would have changed his future... But I do know that I loved him.”
