What happened
Andy Burnham detailed his economic policy proposals and potential revenue sources for Greater Manchester. The proposals advocate for a prospectus for power that includes devolution, reindustrialisation, and a more economically interventionist state. These ideas are intended to address class and regional inequalities within the UK.

Why it matters
