Summary
Andy Burnham, Manchester’s outgoing mayor, is making a political comeback with a bold new plan: “No 10 North” — a northern hub for UK governance aimed at decentralizing power and giving regions more control. Already tapped to lead the initiative is Caroline Simpson, CEO of Greater Manchester, tasked with turning “Manchesterism” into reality. This move reignites debate over London’s dominance and whether the UK’s power structure can truly be rebalanced — a potentially game-changing shift that could reshape how the country is run.
