People who, like me, live in the North are seeing record investment in transport already, releasing the potential of our economy to be more than the sum of its parts. The Northern Powerhouse economy is larger than Wales, Scotland, and Northern Ireland’s combined: on its own, it would be the 8th largest economy in Europe.
