Osbornes` Greater Manchester Mayoral stitch-up is a corporate step too far

First in a plan to impose democratically elected Mayor's on all our major cities - the ideal corporate arrangement - for unscrutinised wheeler dealing and doling out of privatised services contracts - obscured by political showmanship by `larger than life City Boss` personality contests.

Gtr Manchester Communist Party of Britain branch calls;

- upon the North West Trades Union, Labour, Community & Progressive Movements to unite to both defeat it and project a new democratic, 'people first' model of regional development.
- for the elimination of poverty and a better life for all
- for investment in sustainable manufacturing growth technologies and services and an end to the low pay, casualised economy
- for investment in affordable public housing and regulation of private renting
- for an HNS integrated at local authority (LA) level with high quality heath and social care
- for a non selective, equally funded, LA controlled education system delivered by professionally qualified teachers
- for an efficient and affordable local authority regulated transport system

We say NO to an Osbourne Mayor appointee. NO to Mayoral dictat. YES to a Greater Manchester referendum
