Today I produced Sadiq Khan, Andy Burnham, Steve Rotheram, Ben Houchen, Andy Street, and Tim Bowles, six of England's city region elected Mayors. It was rather an event. All very nice to work with, and a good debate had. #metromayors #devolution #BusinessFest
Tomorrow night on ncIMPACT we dive into digital necessity for the Rural Areas of NC. Tune it at 8 PM on *UNC-TV is now PBS NC! for the whole story. For a sneak peek watch the video below.
Jessica Morden MP ExcludedUK Federation of Small Businesses (FSB) Thanks Jessica Morden MP 👍🏻😊
Perhaps Rishi Sunak needs to have at look at the National Audit Office @standardlifefdn #ExcludedUK figures & listen to 9 #MetroMayors & 270+ MPs APPG. And whilst he’s at it, review the Treasury Committee #GapsInSupport report Mel Stride 🤔🤥
Graham Brady MP Good Morning Britain
Signs of hope, many cross party MPs consistently speaking out, Martin Lewis, #metromayors , National Audit Office, Philippa Childs, Paul Johnson, Gina Miller, John Caudwell, Treasury Committee even....Why is this national injustice being deliberately ignored at the top?
#ExcludedUK
Marvin Rees Steve Rotheram Andy Burnham RIGHTLY so..Brand Rishi Sunak taking a bashing at the hands of three MetroMayors who understand the plight of their people who are #ExcludedUK 8 months little & mostly ZERO covid 19 support. It’s typical & despicable & so so shortsighted of HM Treasury to let him do this!
Karma?
Secretary Pete Buttigieg sharing with U.S. Mayors - focus on safer transportation thru National Complete Streets Coalition NC Vision Zero and other ways to save lives on our roads UNC HSRC Collaborative Sciences Center for Road Safety
Excited to join mayors from around North Carolina to talk about #AffordableHousing #ncpol Beau Mills
“And have you heard, that guy in the West Midlands can’t even get a single tram to run!” 😂 #MetroMayors
Unsafe fire resistance in modern homes is not a #political issue.
It’s a #humanitarian one.
How powerful if our #metromayors came together to protect vote(r)s?

.The Northern Powerhouse Partnership explain how #metromayors like Ben Houchen for Tees Valley CA allowed delivery of #Darlington station; £130m of investment; & 3000 #jobs - emphasising need for Conservatives to deliver their #devolution promises to deliver funds for HM Treasury & Transport for the North
@Deeeej1 Cambridge City Council BBC News (UK) Brighton also voted Labour in for the first time in half a century, as did all the fishing constituencies stuffed by the Tories under #BrexitReality BBC News (UK) BBC Politics - hardly a disaster for Labour. Oh, and let's not forget the Labour #metromayors either! #ToryLies
A huge thank you to our #HR leaders & #MetroMayors Andy Burnham, TracyBrabinWY & Steve Rotheram for joining our Good Work Summit to explore ways we can drive good & fair work & level up the North 🙌.

John Caudwell ExcludedUK Hi John - With your clout, could you get a meeting with Sunak to ascertain his thinking/strategy in terms of the long term effects of excluding 3 millions people? Effects on their finances, families, futures, mental health must be weighted versus what? They just want fairness

Great time joining the Beau Mills conference in Greensboro today. Checking out Honda Jet was nice, but not as cool as riding a Greensboro Transit Agency Proterra battery-electric bus with Mayor Mayor Nancy Vaughan
How have #metromayors and #combinedauthorities faired since #devolution , and where next? Read this short paper by the Institute for Gov's Thomas Pope Gemma Tetlow & Akash Paun drawn from a roundtable with Atkins Julia Goldsworthy West of England Combined Authority & others: bit.ly/35P9i8t
Today #MetroMayors announced goal of 185,000 housing units by 2030. Collaboration and courage were the themes of the day. Kudos to Mayor Marty Walsh Joseph A. Curtatone @JayAshEOHED Metropolitan Area Planning Council (MAPC) MassHousing and others for their leadership.
Great to be at the “in person” IoD North West event at ACC Liverpool with Andy Burnham and Steve Rotheram #iodnw #metromayors
