They discuss the challenges and lessons learned throughout their lives, including how the Hillsborough disaster shaped them, their time in Westminster witnessing its systematic flaws, becoming Mayors up North and battling Boris Johnson during the Covid-19 pandemic, all whilst showing how they have led two of the country’s fastest growing city regions. Building on this, Andy and Steve offer a comprehensive ten-point plan that would completely rewire our country.

A timely discussion around power and devolution, a razor-sharp analysis of the failed promises of ‘levelling up’ and an inspiring call for change, Head North outlines how we can spread political and economic power throughout the UK and push forward for a fairer future.
