For years, Greater Manchester has had to put up with a second-rate rail service on Sundays. I’ve been calling for the full timetable to be reinstated,so this is welcome news

Now, Greater Manchester must be at the front of the queue as more services are reintroduced. I’ll be meeting Northern in the next 24 hours to discuss the rollout plan and seek reassurance that we’re top of the list.

This couldn’t come at a better time, as millions of people flock to our world-famous Christmas markets and businesses on our high streets make the most of the festive period.

"When you go home, tell them of us and say, For your tomorrow, we gave our today."

Today is a moment for reflection. Remembering those who gave the ultimate sacrifice, for all of us.

Today across Greater Manchester we remember everyone who has served our country, past and present. Courage and commitment to protect all we hold dear. We will never forget.

No one who has served our country should find themselves on the streets or without support. In Greater Manchester too many sadly still do.

I’ve announced a new gold standard of support to change that.

Good to see Government reflecting what we’ve been saying for some time.

Greater Manchester needs better trains, not refurbished relics from decades ago. I’ve been pressing the government for investment in the rolling stock.

Oh, and more trains on Sundays… 👀

Big news that we are step closer to an Olympic bid for Greater Manchester.

A sports mad city already competing on the global stage.

The Olympics would be transformative for us and wider the North of England.
