Director of IPPR North comments on appointment of new PM

Zoë Billingham, director of IPPR North said:

“Liz Truss and her party were elected to government on a promise to level up the country. This mandate and need hasn’t changed.

"Levelling up – narrowing inequalities between and within places – remains imperative in order to protect people from increasingly difficult economic conditions both now and in the future.”
