"IT'S ABOUT TIME SALFORD PEOPLE GOT HEARD – NOT THE RICH, THE POORER ONES" Anne, service user

Salford Mayor Ian Stewart was the target for the fury of service users this morning as they stormed out of a Salford City Council Cabinet meeting, disgusted that their views were being ignored.

The Cabinet was discussing plans to cut £1.6million from the Health Improvement Service, and following a protest outside, people went into the Cabinet meeting to hear what councillors and the Mayor had to say. But they walked out after handing over a petition which Stewart, at first, refused to accept... "It's not fair and it's about time Salford people got heard – not the rich, the poorer ones", said Anne, a service user.

Parents and children this morning blocked the road in the Moorings Estate in Boothstown in protest at Countryside Properties' building activities which have led to people fearing for their safety.

"This is about the complete failure of Salford City Council" said Charlotte Cooper of the Moorings Estate Residents Society "...ignoring the wishes of residents, agreeing planning conditions that are unenforceable and now walking away and leaving residents to deal with the developer directly."

Last night, candidates standing for the Blackley and Broughton seat in the upcoming General Election gathered for a Question Time style debate at St Paul's Church in Kersal.
