🚨 In July last year, we revealed that @ManCityCouncil had signed a 10-year deal giving @ManCity's Abu Dhabi owners "right of first refusal" on the sale of council land across whole stretches of East Manchester.
Today, it's on the front page of the Sunday Times, crediting us.

Here's our original story. It got a lot of attention in Manchester when we broke it, but today it's become a national talking point. It was broken by @jackdulhanty.

We've just published the inside story of the city's relationship with Abu Dhabi. Including a senior council official saying: "You don’t criticise the council’s relationship with the football club in this organisation and hope to survive."

I explained Mancunian economics to the no doubt fascinated viewers of @BBCNewsnight.
The Man City scandal has put the spotlight on Real Manchesterism, which - I regret to inform you - isn’t a doctrine to warm the hearts of Labour conference.

Thought-provoking story by @joshi and @ManchesterMill on the Manchester City-UAE scandal, which concludes that Andy Burnham is having to confront the realisation that “Real Manchesterism” is “morally compromised” and, dare they say it, “neoliberal” manchestermill.co.uk/man-cit…

Lively debate started below the line of my piece this morning. A few comments:
"Do councils actually want to get rid of the rubbish on the streets or is the enforcement officers' task really just to generate as much income as possible?"

“I’m paying not far off £200 a month on council tax, and they’re spending it on this s**t?”
Are the cigarette butt finers of Manchester acting with integrity, or scooping up easy money?
