Making The North East The Powerhouse Of The Green Industrial Revolution

In the North East, we need a bold and ambitious vision for the future of our economy. We have the natural resources, we have the skills and, above all, we have the people to be a world leader in green industries and green technology. Sadly, at the moment, the complacent Labour MPs’ in our area are unable to provide vision or leadership to help our region become a world leader again.

I make the case, in this pamphlet published by the TRG, that, as a region we should be world leaders in green industry. You can read the pamphlet here:

The North East can, once again, be the region that other parts of the world look towards. Our potential as an area is limitless. But the time in which we have to take advantage of the opportunities and to be genuine trailblazers is limited.

Of course, local Labour politicians have shown no imagination and no vision at all about the future of our region. They have long grown, tired and out of touch – having taken us all for granted for much too long. That is why we urgently need to sweep them aside in favour of a new generation of North Easterners, like myself, who have a passion for our region and a real vision for the future of our economy.
