Andy Burnham's leadership speech and vision - what are your thoughts?

Afternoon, all!

Following Andy Burnham's speech, we're interested in hearing what our community really thinks!

A few questions that we would love to hear your thoughts on:

📍 Burnham wants power over the economy moved from Westminster to your region. Would that help your business, or would it not change much for you?

🏪 He also wants to reform business rates and revive our high streets. Would those changes actually help your business, or do they miss the issues that matter most to you?

📈 Looking at the bigger picture, does his vision make you feel more or less confident about running a business here over the next few years?

We'd love to hear your perspective—whether you're optimistic, sceptical, or somewhere in between.
