Burnham’s Manchester Power Move | UK News
Description
Prime Minister Andy Burnham is launching “No10 North” in Manchester — not just a symbolic gesture, but a bold step to decentralize power from Westminster. He’ll work there at least one day a week, leveraging his deep ties to the city, even as the permanent office won’t be ready until 2032. For now, he’s using existing government buildings with beefed-up security — all under current budgets, though critics question the long-term cost and impact on Manchester’s skyline. Burnham insists this move is essential for faster growth and marks the end of resisting devolution.
