## Resource

Andy Burnham’s audacious plan to create a “Number 10 in the North” is sparking national debate—aiming to decentralize power from London and establish a new political hub in Manchester. While supporters hail it as a historic step to empower the North and break the Westminster bubble, critics warn of regional division, logistical headaches, and potential alienation of the South. With an interim location still being chosen and the final site set for the Manchester Digital Campus, the move could reshape Britain’s political landscape—or at least force a crucial conversation about power, place, and progress.
