TIME TO REMAKE "GOD'S OWN COUNTRY"
Yorkshire is renowned for its spectacular landscapes, castles and cathedrals, and decent portion sizes. But it’s also known as a heartland of British industry. With the production of Sheffield steel and Yorkshire coal, we were at the heart of the industrial revolution that made the UK the wealthiest country in the world.
Since the campaign launched, we’ve held several events in Yorkshire, including launching the campaign at the Fox and Hounds, Wetherby.
Britain Remade
in Yorkshire
The problems Britain faces today - things like the cost-of-living and energy bills, the lack of affordable houses, and the loss of industry - are problems we can overcome. Our campaign is listening to your concerns and ideas and working to develop practical solutions to improve things. We’re here to act on your behalf and make sure Westminster is listening.
