Drive reindustrialisation from No 10 North or risk failure, MPs tell Burnham

A group of over 90 Labour MPs is warning that Andy Burnham's plan to reindustrialise Britain may fail unless it is driven from his new office in Manchester. They believe the civil service lacks the necessary skills to drive growth in the right areas. This warning is significant because reindustrialisation is a key part of the Prime Minister's plan to achieve "good growth in every postcode".

Why it matters

The UK's civil service may lack the necessary skills to drive growth in needed areas, and a plan is required to address this issue. Without proper guidance, the UK's reindustrialisation efforts may fail, which could have significant economic implications.
