YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

“We underestimate in this country just how frustrating it is for people in our communities when all of the decisions are made 200 miles away.”

Andy Burnham is expected to lean “quite heavily” into devolution because he has seen the “massive opportunities” when “you get it right”, says the Labour mayor of South Yorkshire, Oliver Coppard.

Oliver Coppard and Alain Tolhurst were speaking to Salma El-Wardany and Calum Macdonald on Times Radio Breakfast. Listen live every day from 6-10am.
