Drawing on his decade-long leadership in Manchester, he’s pushing to empower regions to control vital services like water, energy, and transport, while launching a massive council house program and letting mayors shape education to match local job markets. His plan even includes a “No 10 North” hub in Manchester to tackle utility costs and boost regional reform. While experts warn that local government needs a serious rebuild — with years of austerity leaving councils under-resourced — Yorkshire’s Labour mayors and regional businesses are cautiously optimistic. With Burnham’s hands-on experience and a clearer roadmap than past devolution efforts, this could be the moment local power finally delivers real change.
