PLUS: 'Operated as designed'
It’s been a much-loved part of Gorton for almost 20 years. But soon the Donkey Sanctuary in Debdale Park could be gone.
Rev. David Gray, a member of the action group, compared the closure to the Belle Vue Zoological Gardens in 1977. He said: "We do not want another generation of Gorton children growing up with a sense of uncertainty as to their worthiness to access stimulating educational and recreational resources." A United Utilities spokesperson said: “The storm overflow operated as it is designed to do so after a period of sustained heavy rain across the catchment. Whilst the current system is designed to activate during rainfall, we understand and share people’s concerns about the need for change.
Coun John Flanagan said: “I am not hearing that you will have your security on to stop a crush. Who is managing that to ensure there’s a flow of people?” Ethan Davies has more here… "I don’t know what you mean by that because you promised me 18 months ago, in a phone call on what would have been Martyn’s 35th birthday, that you’re going to really hurry up with Martyn’s Law and you are very committed to it. There has been nothing since then. So what exactly do you mean by prioritising?Mr Sunak replied: “I can understand why Figen would like to have seen this done even quicker, but it is important that it works properly. And that takes time to get right.
