In November, the Government are reviewing the UK 10pm curfew. It doesn't work for the public or operators. Overloaded transport, crowded takeaways, supermarkets etc. It's doing far more harm than good. Operators are running safe and secure COVID19 venues. Cancel the Curfew

UPDATE: We’ve had a formal response from Government and we consider it insufficient. Ours pubs should not be shut without scientific evidence. Legal proceedings will now commence. The fight goes on.

Greater Manchester has in effect been in Tier 2 for over 10 weeks. London has been in Tier 2 for a week. I’m now reading that the Chancellor is meeting business Leaders to see what extra help can be done for Tier 2. Let’s hope ours is back dated North/South divide.

We cannot sit back and allow the Government to close our pubs and bars without scientific evidence. That’s why we are taking them to Judicial Review. They are wrecking lives. We won’t and can’t be treated like second class citizens.

Just for the record, even if the government does indeed restrict any extra funding for Gtr Manchester, we stand firmly with @AndyBurnhamGM on his stance to try to get a better deal for the people and businesses in Mcr and beyond. It’s going to be a rough winter – at Salford, England

People from outside our region shouldn’t underestimate the level of anger, anxiety and hardship that’s already been caused by nearly 3 months locked in Tier 2 with no extra support and a strategy that isn’t working. That’s why there is unity across the GM leadership & MPs

'We are being set up as the canaries in the coal mine'. @AndyBurnhamGM has criticised the govt's pushes for harsher restrictions in the Greater Manchester region, saying jobs and businesses are being “sacrificed here to try and save them elsewhere". trib.al/WMubOBc
