Nothing new. WHY, we continually elect Tory or Labour governments who seem to have a pact to hang on to power. This poverty can be resolved with Regional Governments and Proportional Representation (PR) Yorkshire Party Make Votes Matter Electoral Reform Society healthequitynorth.co.uk/regional-inequ…

The National Only one of the English mayors represents official UK Region - London. Others all represent sub-regional local government quangos with limited powers. 2 of 9 English regions are not represented at all & 5 have areas not represented by mayors. It's a farce to call it 'regional'

100 days of Labour - donations scandal - winter fuel cut - 7 MPs suspended - 1 MP resigned - Sue Gray resigned - 2 child benefit cap kept - Railway cuts - Non-Dom tax pledge watered down & nothing for Yorkshire For actual change, join the Yorkshire Party yorkshireparty.org/join

This isn't devolution This isn't levelling-up This isn't fair funding for Yorkshire This is lip-service to regional inequality In 2023, public spending in Yorkshire was £2,600 lower per person than in London & Scotland -HM Treasury figures A shortfall of £14 billion in one year

Nothing for Yorkshire... No changes there then...

BylinesCymru 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 Yorkshire Bylines The Labour Party Child poverty is the start of a poor life experience for many. We need to boost the economies in the deprived regions, particularly in the North. It will not happen from Westminster & Whitehall Centralisation is holding this nation back.

That's why #YorkshireParty continues to campaign for better SEND support "Kirklees Council said it...was under increasing pressure to support those with additional needs & had argued for many years the funding it received had not kept pace with demand" bbc.co.uk/news/articles/…

One of many in Yorkshire & across the UK which should be restored - things would happen quicker with strong regional powers #YorkshireParty

The #YorkshireParty continues to support fair maternity leave, paternity leave and all associated rights At a time when the average age in the UK is increasing, families should be supported more, not less We also oppose the 2-child benefit cap bbc.co.uk/news/articles/…

Some Yorkshire farming numbers 19% of UK spuds 40%of UK pigs 31k people employed That's your chippie tea your bacon sarnie and friends job All more expensive or gone because Starmer and Reeves don't care. Yorkshire Party #Doncaster #Budget2024 Data here gov.uk/government/sta…

Nice to see what everyone's money is being poured into with no benefit to Yorkshire or the whole North While we get higher bus fares than London & Wakefield will have bus services cut How is this a united kingdom? Vote #YorkshireParty for a stronger Yorkshire in a fairer UK

Like so many places in Yorkshire...think what a devolved Yorkshire could do with its 'share' of HS2 money...

The wrong questions are being asked West Yorkshire needs a world-class metro system to grow the economy & make people want to leave the car at home (not just a couple of slow trams in Leeds/Bradford) The whole county is long overdue for better transport bbc.co.uk/news/articles/…

Record investments in buses - prioritises the most deprived places Which are, apparently: "Leicester, the Isle of Wight, Torbay, Southend, Cambridgeshire and Peterborough" Labour takes Yorkshire for granted (and we still get the increase in the bus cap) bbc.co.uk/news/articles/…

What is stifling growth? Many things, including lower productivity in Yorkshire, due to decades of underinvestment The HS2 fiasco shows nothing is changing Only the Yorkshire Party is focused on Yorkshire bbc.co.uk/news/articles/…

Devolution to Yorkshire would, by some estimations, add billions to the economy. Why not decentralise Britain and England's economies and get them growing again? 💮 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 🇬🇧

Happy New Year If you're looking for a new start, please join us National politics has failed, support the only party focused on Yorkshire yorkshireparty.org.uk/join

Only handing over governance to the regions will boost the economy. London and the South do well from Westminster but the rest of us don't. Vote for regional parties Yorkshire Party The North East Party don't just flip back to the Conservatives. cityam.com/unhappy-new-ye…

Bradford council has requested that the Government allow a council tax rise of 10%, 13% or even 15% to avoid effective 'bankruptcy' Decades of underfunding is being compensated for through council tax - hardly the fairest form of tax We need real local powers & fair funding
