When asked about his views on the changes for Pride 2022, he said, "I personally didn’t enjoy or appreciate the focus lifting from openness, equal rights, and community spirit, to pop stars and selling tickets at an inflated price.

The price of a weekend ticket for Pride also increased from £28 back in 2018 to £64.50 in 2019, with "The Big Weekend" event held at Mayfield Depot. The Rainbow Pass required to access the Gay Village Party on Canal Street was priced at £15 plus booking fee. In recent years, Manchester Pride has got bigger and bigger, its itinerary has included the likes of Ariana Grande, Emile Sandé, and Yungblud, raising questions as to whether the focus on inclusivity and raising both money and awareness has perhaps been overshadowed by two-for-one shots and big name celebs. The initial event set out to raise money for local charities and provide a sense of unity and community for the LGBTQ+ folk of MCR. The first Manchester Pride event took place in 1985 when Manchester City Council were awarded a £1,700 grant to host a two-week celebration.
