"The key to this is the agglomeration effect as economists call it, critical mass, that's what we need, it brings 10 million people together in exactly the way London has 10 million people together, highly connected and ensures the economic opportunity, based upon that."
Rob Parsons@RobParsonsNorth

"The economic gap between London and the south-east and the north-east, in relative terms, is as great as it was between East Germany and West Germany prior to reunification. It took 30 years to narrow that gap." @kevinhollinrake on the scale of the levelling up challenge.
Kevin Hollinrake MP@kevinhollinrake

The scale of ambition on levelling up is absolutely right, but the challenge is also huge. Yesterday I asked the Chancellor if he agrees that it will take more than one Parliament to truly to level up this country?

Yesterday I spoke in the budget debate which will boost business and the North. The news about Treasury North, the UK Investment Bank in Leeds and a freeport in Teeside shows the Government really means business about levelling up and will provide benefits for the whole region.

We know that school closures have had a huge impact on all children. But children in the North were already facing bigger barriers to their education - whether that was due to higher levels of disadvantage or a disproportionate impact from the #digitaldivide. #Cash4Connect
Annie Gouk@AnnieGouk

As these graphics from @clairemilleruk and @Meme_Marianna show (created for the #cash4connect campaign using data from @NP_Partnership), disadvantage was a growing problem even before the pandemic - especially in the North #ddj #dataviz

Northern MPs are pushing the government for clarity over #HS2, in light of fears that it could be downgraded - despite the Prime Minster promising it would be delivered in February.
Daniel Cochlin@DanielCochlin

HS2 Minister @Andrew4Pendle says government "are committed to building HS2 Phase 2b" in response to Calder Valley MP @CWhittaker_MP asking if rumours of Eastern leg being scrapped are true, and how this would fit in with government's commitment to improving rail in the North
