Briefings

More than 90 Labour MPs warn that Andy Burnham's plan to reindustrialise Britain is likely to fail without decisive action from his new No 10 North outpost in Manchester. The Prime Minister has suggested that rebuilding the UK's industrial capacity is central to his pledge to bring 'good growth in every postcode'.

Key points

• 90+ Labour MPs warn civil service lacks skills to drive growth where it is needed.
• Burnham's pledge to reindustrialise Britain is doomed to fail unless driven decisively from No 10 North.

Context
