Heywood and Middleton MP Chris Clarkson has hit out at a leading councillor after being accused of costing his constituency £20m in Levelling Up funds.
The explosive allegation was made by Rochdale council economy boss John Blundell, whose open letter to the Conservative politician has been circulating on social media.
He claims Mr Clarkson has not engaged with the council - including the former and current leader and chief executive - ‘for several years’.
