Why are we so obsessed with ‘The Red Wall’? What does it mean and are the Tories about to lose all of those seats in the North? Plus, new research shows the government’s levelling-up project has not worked… at all. Only 10% of the approved fund has been spent by councils. Why? And were the government’s missions ever achievable?
• “The red wall are actually voters who should’ve been Tory for quite a long time.” – Marie Le Conte
• “It was more of an F YOU to the whole system.” – Hannah Fearn
• “It’s quite fun to have a lot of nutters.” – Marie Le Conte
• “Rather than levelling-up, everybody is in a worse situation.” – Hannah Fearn
