SALE OF GREATER MANCHESTER WEEKLY NEWSPAPERS

That this House regrets the sale of the Manchester Evening News and 22 regional titles in the North West to Trinity Mirror, thereby severing a 189-year link between Manchester and the Guardian and the Scott Trust; notes that staff and titles will be relocated to Chadderton, Oldham; and hopes that this will not lead to further job losses.
