IPPR is now embarking on a series of regional events engaging local policy communities and the wider public to discuss how the Commission’s findings can improve prosperity and economic justice for the regions and nations of the UK.

This week we’ve been in Newcastle discussing what economic justice means for the North East with newly elected North of Tyne Mayor Jamie Driscoll.
