Campaign for the North


Campaign for the North is a Think Tank which seeks to address the North-South Divide and establish a Regional Government for the North of England covering the six historic counties of the region. The Campaign promotes a devo-max settlement and, in doing so, aims to create a Northern Government with tax-raising powers and responsibility for policy areas including economic development, education, health, policing and emergency services.

Goals of the Campaign

The Campaign is chaired by Dr Harold Elletson, former MP for Blackpool North between 1992–1997, and is supported by a variety of prominent Northern commentators including Professor Munro Price, an award-winning Historian.
