Cllr Jon-Connor Lyons 🐝

So pleased to have had the unanimous support of the #PiccadillyWard Labour Party tonight in selecting me to again be Labour candidate for the LE 2024. It's a privilege to be a Labour Councillor, putting our values of social justice & equity into practice. Thank you! 🌹🐝

Tomorrow I return with full focus to my role as Mayor of GM, defending everything we have built in our city-region over many years. I decided to put myself forward to prevent the divisive politics of Reform from damaging that. We are stronger together and let’s stay that way. 💪🏻

The Mayor responds to misleading claims about the Greater Manchester Inquiry into child sexual exploitation and grooming gangs. Because of action we’ve taken, people have been arrested, charged, and convicted for child sexual exploitation. Greater Manchester will never turn away from the safety of children in our city region.

Parcel theft is getting out of control. It will only get worse in the run up to Black Friday. That's why I am running a campaign to raise awareness in buildings and fight back. Register for your free Anti-Tailgating Poster Pack here 👉 bit.ly/49eE1zL

Excited about this plan for Railway Station homes next to Manchester Piccadilly Station. Huge opportunity to boost the area around Piccadilly + build more well-connected homes 🚆🏡

Just filmed a very glamorous video… about people p*ssing in the street...yes, really. Manchester deserves streets that don’t smell like a nightclub floor at 4am, so I’m pushing for more loos & better enforcement. Until then: please keep it in your pants & off our pavements 😇

Today we remember. People from every part of the world, standing together for what’s right. Manchester’s strength has always been its people, together. That’s what the poppy means. Gratitude. Unity. Freedom.

Lovely to chat to people today in Piccadilly East about what they care about! And what a great autumnal day! 🍁🍂

Good to join local volunteers and Councillors yesterday to speak to residents in Angel Meadow about what we can do to help improve the area 📢

It is reprehensible. More consultation needed. Well said -@JonConnorLyons and Sam.

THEY KEEP THE CITY MOVING. THEY DESERVE BETTER 📣 Out with @unisontheunion & @unitetheunion members this morning on their TfGM picket line. They keep our city running. They shouldn't have to strike just to afford the basics. That’s not fair. That’s not Manchester.

Do you think it's a good idea? 📝 More info here. ➡️ bit.ly/47nsEml #mcr #NorthernQuarter

It’s a huge privilege to have been elected Deputy Leader of the Labour Party. Thank you to all Party members and supporters who put their trust in me.

Congratulations Lucy Powell, elected as Deputy Leader of the Labour Party.

Congratulations to Manchester’s finest @LucyMPowell - looking forward to working with you as Deputy Leader too. And to those looking to sow division, move on - here’s to a united Labour Party getting on with delivering for our country 🌹
