My name is Jon-Connor Lyons and I'm re-standing for election in Piccadilly Ward. My top five achievements over the last two years:

1. Winning affordable housing for the city centre.

2. Standing up for Mancunian heritage, with applications that would destroy listed buildings knocked back.

3. Lobbying for more money to tackle waste issues with £250,000 for Big Belly Bins.

4. Managing to secure £150,000 for tree planting for across our city centre.

5. Securing millions from developers for either new green spaces or existing green spaces.

With your help, if re-elect, I would focus on:

1. Fighting for a greener, cleaner city - including fighting for more green space.

2. Lobbying for more affordable housing for the city centre.

3. Demanding more resources to tackle anti-social behaviour and crime.

4. Continue working for an ambitious response to the climate crisis.

5. Be an independent voice for our city centre, always putting residents and communities 1st.

Thank you.
