:00:11. > :00:15.Members of the troubled Manchester based Co`operative Group have voted
:00:16. > :00:19.in favour of reforming how the business is run.
:00:20. > :00:21.The Group has been in turmoil for the past year
:00:22. > :00:26.after a ?1.5 billion financial hole was discovered in its accounts.
:00:27. > :00:30.Its chief executive resigned in March and the company had to

:00:40. > :00:50.83% of members voted in favour. Here's what some had to say.
:00:51. > :01:02.I am very happy that the Co`op have come to a decision which we can live
:01:03. > :01:06.with. You voted against Mr Marks? Our whole region did. We think there
:01:07. > :01:12.is not enough balance to operate as a cooperative. Many
:01:13. > :01:16.people have voted to remove a structure that will end my term of
:01:17. > :01:20.office early. There 100 or so in there who will step
:01:21. > :01:27.down an unselfish decision. Nervous, but
:01:28. > :01:30.determined. With 83%, it is probably as strong as anyone could have hoped
:01:31. > :01:31.for. Hundreds of people have turned out
:01:32. > :01:33.for the re`opening of Manchester's Alexandra Park,
:01:34. > :01:35.after its ?5.5 million makeover. The work was partly funded
:01:36. > :01:37.by both the Heritage Lottery Fund But some residents in the Moss side
:01:38. > :01:41.area had objected to the plans. Alexandra Park's been around
:01:42. > :01:47.for 144 years ` and now the council says it finally has facilities fit
:01:48. > :01:50.for the 21st century. A lot of money has been spent
:01:51. > :01:53.on this project. There are some who say that that
:01:54. > :01:55.money could have been spent People come here
:01:56. > :02:00.and can have a brilliant time. That is what money should
:02:01. > :02:05.be spent on sometimes. There has been opposition `
:02:06. > :02:08.last year saw protests against the clearance of trees, which
:02:09. > :02:11.the Council decided was essential In response, it was decided
:02:12. > :02:16.fewer trees would be felled. And now we have great facilities
:02:17. > :02:26.for the area. New features include four new tennis
:02:27. > :02:29.courts as well as a children's play area,
:02:30. > :02:31.while the lake has had a makeover, And not forgetting the newly
:02:32. > :02:38.restored walkways and terrace area, where for this weekend,
:02:39. > :02:40.you'll see ladies and gentlemen in This building has been done up,
:02:41. > :02:45.which is great. I know lots of trees were cut
:02:46. > :02:47.down but they seem to have planted I think it is going to be much
:02:48. > :02:55.better used, The re`opening celebration continues
:02:56. > :02:59.tomorrow, when the Lord Mayor of Manchester will lead
:03:00. > :03:05.a ribbon`cutting ceremony. Onto sport ` Manchester United's
:03:06. > :03:08.British record signing Angel Di Maria failed to inspire their first
:03:09. > :03:11.victory of the season at Burnley. It means a first point
:03:12. > :03:19.for Burnley. Meanwhile not great news
:03:20. > :03:51.for Manchester City they lost at We have seen a showery start to the
:03:52. > :03:57.weekend but it will get better courtesy of high pressure building
:03:58. > :04:01.in from the south. So a few showers in the latter part of the night and
:04:02. > :04:08.cloud remaining as well. The windy we will see an occasional shower in
:04:09. > :04:13.the early morning. A north`westerly breeze. In the afternoon, becoming
:04:14. > :04:19.dry and brighter all round. Sunny spells developing. It will feel a

:05:30. > :05:33.former hurricane, which is moving towards Iceland. Ahead of that
:05:34. > :05:37.through the night and tomorrow, we see pressure building. That clears
:05:38. > :05:41.away the showers and for many tomorrow will be drier and clearer
:05:42. > :05:45.with lighter winds and feeling warmer. As we start Sunday morning,
