Pie Shop Owner Receives Unexpected Response from MP
A Chorley pie shop owner has been left surprised and delighted by an unexpected response from Manchester mayor Andy Burnham after sharing a video on social media about the struggles he faces as a small business owner. Paul Bowen, who owns a popular pie shop in the town, had posted a video highlighting the decline of high street businesses in Chorley. In the video, he expressed his concerns about the future of local shops and his own business being forced to close due to unsustainable rent costs. Burnham responded with a message of support, acknowledging Bowen’s concerns and promising to look into ways to help small businesses thrive on the high street. The response was met with widespread praise from locals and business owners in Chorley. While Burnham is not the Prime Minister, it appears that there may be some confusion between him and the current Prime Minister, as the article originally stated Andy Burnham instead of Rishi Sunak.
