Stop the #NorthernPowercut

We want the Chancellor to put his money where his mouth is next week – and immediately get the electrification of the Manchester to Leeds train route back on track.

Our campaign calls for:

- a firm timetable for completion

- NO cash to be handed to London’s £20bn CrossRail 2 project until that is in place

Our call for action is being backed by rail passengers, business leaders and Greater Manchester politicians of all parties – including the entire ‘super council’, the region’s interim mayor and MPs from across the political spectrum.

Please join us in trying to get a fair deal for the North.
