Possibly Annie, who knows? Maybe none of his aids told him that Jeremy was to visit Manchester.
I voted for Andy in the Mayoral election, though like so many others here, voted against the idea of a Mayor but it's been imposed on us. Andy has been a well liked, hard working MP in a nearby town. I saw him on the Hustings in the first leadership election, when it seemed he believed he had the leadership in the bag. I voted him 2nd (didn't vote Jeremy at all)
