The results of Greater Manchester Chamber of Commerce’s latest Quarterly Economic Survey (QES) highlight the impact global uncertainty and rising costs are having on businesses. aboutmanchester.co.uk/greater-manche…

@AndyBurnhamGM @northernassist Probably need to report this to the Fax Controller..............with apologies to Sir Topham Hat.

Last night, there were widespread cancellations of @northernassist services causing chaos at stations. It can’t go on. Following a special Rail North Committee, I have written to the Chancellor to ask that a pending agreement on rest day working is approved as soon as possible.

That #Euston screen should never have been given the go-ahead in the first place. tinyurl.com/5n83ryt8

It never made it to Manchester.....

Shock horror, less capacity = more expensive fares. Who knew.........

HS2 does

Wish I'd got 'they dont have a plan' and 'I thought they were interested in....' in Budget Bingo. #Budget2024

Deeply unimpressive so far from the Chancellor, think I've heard more about what Labour isn't doing than what he is actually doing. Hard to pick out the points in amongst the music hall slapstick! Good job the economy is in a such a good state it's a laughing matter #Budget2024

Jeremy Hunt rather overdoing the party political stuff, making it harder than usual to hear the actual budget measures.

Wouldn't it be really good if the Chancellor actually got on with telling us what he is doing instead of making cheap comments against the other parties. Obvious pre-election setting up here.

“Britain’s forgotten regions.” Forgotten by who exactly? It’s ten years this year since the Northern Powerhouse was launched
