Background
For too long, power and wealth in the UK have been concentrated in London and the South, while the North has been left behind. Despite our industrial heritage, natural beauty, and resilient communities, we face higher taxes, rising costs, and lower public services.
The North built Britain’s global reputation, yet decisions are made in Westminster without regard for our unique needs and identity. We lack the voice and agency we deserve. It’s time for the North to decide its future.
