While this newspaper will not be endorsing any party at this General Election, The Yorkshire Post has set out its own manifesto for Yorkshire – setting out ten policy areas from transport and energy to farming and devolution where the next Government could make a real and genuine difference to people’s lives.
Below are The Yorkshire Post’s ten priorities for the new Prime Minister. Business Consistency. Predictability. Reliability. Clarity. Trust. In the pages of this newspaper, business leaders, entrepreneurs and investors have lamented a breakdown between the political classes and wealth creators. Those who make the nations tills ring crave confidence in the long-term national and international industrial strategy.
It is an invidious brief for anyone. Farming Few sectors felt the shockwaves of exiting the EU as farming, with reverberations of discontent running through farms. From a shortage of pickers, packers and slaughterhouse workers to added bureaucratic complexities, increased input costs to insecurity caused by subsidy losses, a global pandemic and a war in Ukraine, those farmers who remain are perhaps more browbeaten than ever.
