Create a regional parliament for Northern England

Petition Details

The aim of this petition is for UK parliament to create a regional parliament for Northern England with devolved powers like those retained by the Scottish Parliament.

Additional Information

For too long, governments of all differing political positions have promised Northern England a plethora and multitude of things to which they have failed to uphold; the 'levelling-up' agenda has materialised into Northern businesses and citizens having inadequate financial support over the pandemic; the 'Northern Powerhouse' concept formed into a distant memory and the railways are some of the worst in western Europe. It's time for government to be closer to the people it governs.

This would be a decision for the people who live in this area. You could start a new petition calling for the Government to hold a referendum on this issue, if that's what you'd like to see happen.
