Roy Hodkinson and David Nuttall retained their places in Ramsbottom and Bury North respectively.

It was a very close race between James Frith and David Nuttall. With which David Nuttall came out the victor.

I hope that all of the issues people have highlighted with Ramsbottom and Bury North are taken notice or, regardless of which party they were originally directed at.

We’re lucky in Ramsbottom but we’re not without our own issues, parking for example is one that is mentioned often. I know Labour candidates were looking into the parking issues, I just hope this continues.
