Summary:

For the first time, the Mayors of Greater Manchester and the Liverpool City Region, Andy Burnham and Steve Rotheram, are speaking out about their experiences of modern British politics, and the fight for Northern voices to be heard. 'Head North' offers a new vision for Britain which centres a Northern perspective and reimagines our country beyond the Westminster bubble, arguing that by reframing our thinking we can push forward for a fairer future. From the renationalisation of public transport networks to rebuilding the NHS and social care spaces; from rewiring Westminster to creating a new education system for all, Andy and Steve's united vision for Britain isn't an unrealistic alternative, it's a very tangible possibility.
