Burnham’s Bold Plan to Decentralize Power | Manchester News

Description

Andy Burnham’s bold plan to decentralize power from London could reshape England’s governance, proposing a historic shift toward regional autonomy, reindustrialization, and a “No 10 in the North” hub in Manchester. While critics slam his refusal to take media questions as evasive, former spin doctor Alastair Campbell defends the speech’s independence — arguing future accountability will lie with Parliament, not the press. Burnham’s vision centers on “good growth in every postcode,” empowering local leaders to tackle economic and social challenges without partisan interference.
