Greater Manchester Mayor

We have our own mate.

No idea who he/she is though.

This is your man:

Councillor Derek Heffernan

From the Oldham council website:

The role of the Mayor is to be an ambassador for Oldham and represent the Borough at a variety of events and functions.

As an ambassador, the Mayor is committed to raising the profile of Oldham and forging links with the private, voluntary and public sector.

The Mayor also chairs Council meetings.


A mayor is normally a ceremonial role, but in the case of the Elected mayor of Manchester, he will sit on the Greater Manchester Combined Authority, along with the leaders of the ten local authorities as the 11th member.

Under the law of 'most Mancunians would vote for a chimpanzee with a red rosette', Burnham will be your Mayor.
 
This twat twists in the wind.
He says what he thinks you want to hear.
His record as Health Secretary was shit.
He's soiled goods from the Blair/Brown regime.
He's a dipper standing in Manc territory.
He's a stupid choice made by a divided party that doesn't know whether to shit or shave.

And no doubt Mancs will vote him in because he's wearing Labour colours.
 
Andy's the man to hold the government to account for their Northern Powerhouse commitments.

I am sure he will, but possibly argue the centre of the northern powerhouse should be Liverpool.

Why on earth would he want to be mayor of Manchester. He is a professional scouser. I don't hold that against him but I would not dream of wanting to be a counsellor or mayor of Liverpool. I can only think he is doing this for his own ego, profile. Madness.

His track record suggests otherwise. Comes over as completely incompetant. He does however have the Blair brand, and is so far up his own orrifice that it's almost certain the gullible public will take to him. Dubious style and no content. The epitome of a career politician.

At least he gas some style, which gives him an advantage over Ivan Lewis.
 
Stepping stone to the leadership.
 
Why didn't he run for the mayor of Liverpool ?
His best friend was in the running so didn't want to upset the boat
Career politician and nothing else thinks only of himself
 
what the fuck do we need any of the overpaid self serving cunts for? waste of council tax.


Use that council tax for less cuts.
 
So what happens to their already democratically elected mayor, who holds his post until May 5th 2020.
Will he just be dismissed? Just be over ridden? Could be a bit messy

He will continue as Mayor of Salford and sit on the Greater Manchester Combined Authority, along with the nominated person from the other nine authorities (all of whom are leaders of their respective councils) and the Mayor of Manchester.
