What regional inequalities do different parts of the UK face? And which policies should the Government implement to bridge these divides and level up the country?
City Minutes is exploring these questions in a mini-series on how to level up the UK.
In the fourth episode, host Andrew Carter speaks with Centre for Cities’ Director of Policy and Research Paul Swinney to discuss the impact of a decade of austerity on the UK's largest cities and towns and the policy interventions needed to reverse these and level up public services.
