So. The leader of the council has accepted a £9k pay rise.

He says he has given up his job at BNY Mellon so the pay rise means he can give his all to the residents of Trafford.

Well Mr Anstee.

Now that you are a full time employee of the council.

Can I ask you to put the roads in order as driving/cycling along Manchester/Washway Road is like going along a herd of camels.

I have recently broke a spring on my truck on Park Road, Timperley.

The road had been supposedly repaired.

The roads are in a terrible state.

Can I also ask you to put cycle lanes along this stretch.

There is plenty of room on the pavements as the residents of these roads use them as an extension to their drives.

I am sure other residents have their own angsts.

So, residents of Trafford – please write in and put your case forward.

If the council can afford to give someone a 9k pay rise, they can afford to put things right
