So Burnham arguing for another £10mil or so for Manchester businesses is the reason when the Government has wasted £billions on PPE contracts paid to their mates. I’m no fan of Burnham but scapegoating him for this is a bit lame IMHO.
 
I posted some time ago that when the tier 3 restrictions came in Liverpool hedged their bets on getting the cases down with the help of the rapid testing and the restrictions. They will have the opportunity to open up a bit now in the run up to Christmas. They as much as people won't like it they did the right thing.

Nothing to do with money it's the fact Manchester went into tier 3 2 weeks late as Burnham refused hence 2 weeks of covid growth leading to the tier 3. Dont know we're the PPE stuff came in.

Slight red herring I think but the political point has been made that Burnham rightly or wrongly tried to fuck the government over unlike Liverpool who said tier 3 it is and now whereas restrictions have been relaxed slightly there as nod to their compliance we have been shafted. Not saying it is right and of course the tier system is to be reviewed every two or three weeks I think so we might go into tier 2 if the numbers keep on dropping. But essentially Burnham's ego has cost the GM businesses big time.
 
Burnham has gone full on dipper victim, whinging that he's being blamed for everything

Bollocks , Johnson and his band of cunts wanted the lowest paid to survive on 67% compared to the 80% paid earlier in the year , surprisingly when London got dragged into lockdown the 80% miraculously reappeared , the only **** to blame is fucking Johnson.

Fuck the government over? Or try and fight for a fair deal. 67% for Manchester but as soon as national lockdown it’s back up to 80%?
 
Tier 3, eh? Shocked, I am!

I put my business into creditors voluntary liquidation this week after almost 29 years - I'll pay nearly £5k for the privilege too.

I've fought like fuck for months but sometimes you have to do it for the good of your health and sanity.

I'm just a one-man director band, christ knows what Manchester and its surroundings are gonna look like four months from now.

As long as London is okay though!
