Northern towns 'shafted' in new funding formula that favours London, MPs say Northern towns could be in line for a funding boost after complaints from MPs that a new system for allocating cash to councils favours London. #Northern #towns #shafted #new #funding

Northern towns have long felt the weight of neglect, and this new funding formula seems to be another instance of the same old story. It’s disheartening to see a system that’s supposed to support all areas favoring the capital. This raises the question—are we really looking at a fair allocation of resources, or is it merely a reflection of a deeper systemic bias? We need to scrutinize how these decisions are made and who they truly benefit. It's not just about spreadsheets and figures; it’s about people’s livelihoods and the future of communities. The time is ripe for those in power to rethink their priorities and ensure that all regions have a fair chance to thrive, rather than leaving the North in the shadows. What are your thoughts on the implications of this funding shift? https://news.sky.com/story/northern-towns-shafted-in-new-funding-formula-that-favours-london-mps-say-13503707 #FundingFairness #NorthernTowns #LondonBias #CommunitySupport
