Police And Crime Commissioner comments on General Election result

Date published: 08 May 2015


Speaking following the result of the General Election, Greater Manchester’s Police and Crime Commissioner Tony Lloyd said:

"We face a real challenge here in Greater Manchester, no matter what our political allegiances, to make sure our voice is heard.

“We need to ensure we aren’t squeezed out by the new pressures exerted on Whitehall by Scotland and the Home Counties as a result of the changing political landscape. It is now more important than ever to make the case for Greater Manchester as we seek to build safe, strong and cohesive communities.

“Our voice must be loud and our voice must be heard."
