Closed petition Move the Ministry for Exiting the EU to Northern England

Closed on

It is important that the ministry has a good appreciation of the needs of the economy outside the S.E. of England where a great deal of the regeneration and products produced for export come from. It would help in the building confidence in and reinforcing the Northern Powerhouse.

The re-balancing of the economy will be an important component of restructuring the economy after Brexit, the industrial areas of the north had traditionally been part of the successful rise of Britain as a global superpower.
