New 'No 10. North' plan will rebalance power in Britain, Burnham promises

But can so-called ‘Manchesterism’ be delivered nationwide? We ask former adviser to Rishi Sunak, Tim Leunig, and General Secretary of the FDA trade union Dave Penman. Also in the programme: details emerge of the government’s delayed Defence Investment Plan, an early version of which sparked the resignation of Defence Secretary John Healey. And authorities will tomorrow decide whether to attempt replacing ageing ferries with an undersea tunnel to connect the Shetland Islands.
