Greater Manchester Mayor Race Slips Through the Cracks | Manchester News

Published 1 month ago
Description

This year’s Greater Manchester mayoral race is quietly historic—Andy Burnham’s absence and the rise of Reform and the Greens haven’t sparked the buzz you’d expect, thanks to national chaos. With Burnham now Prime Minister and the Clacton by-election stealing headlines, this election’s been sidelined despite its massive stakes. The mayor now wields billions, controlling policing, housing, and skills—and could shape national devolution. But without a clear campaign theme or public spotlight, the race feels overshadowed, even as the winner steps into a role with unprecedented regional and national influence.
