GMP say tackling hate crime in Gay Village 'top priority' after 'despicable' attacks
Police say that tackling hate crime in Manchester's Gay Village remains the 'top priority' following four 'despicable' attacks on an adult store.
"I would like to reassure the community that we have the resources available to ensure people are safe in the Village. We have conducted numerous high-visibility patrols and used plain clothed officers through the evenings to ensure the night-time economy remains a thriving environment, and we will continue to use these tactics.
Councillor Sam Wheeler, Piccadilly Ward Councillor, said: "Events like this understandably cause concern to the many people, across Manchester and beyond, who feel the Gay Village is a rare place where they are safe to be themselves. Since the initial incident we have had several very successful events in the Gay Village, supported by GMP and other partners, showing the tremendous resilience of the community. The City Council is committed to this unique cultural and social space.
"It is despicable what has gone on, singling out a venue that has been in the Village for more than 30 years. CloneZone is a well-established brand known across the country.
