Kamran Ghafoor, a councillor whose Ferrari was smashed up while attending the election count in Oldham, said the attack was a 'political vendetta'. The councillor feels threatened in TikTok videos by people who wanted to stand for office. He strongly denies claims he is gaining financially from his position, saying he donates his £12,000 councillor allowance to various charities.
