We’re underway with the biggest transfer of power and resources to the people of the North East, from Westminster in a generation.

We’re creating real opportunity. New jobs, new homes and training across our region.

And this is just the start.

Did you know that almost 40% of the cars in Britain are made in the North East?

We make things, we’re innovators and we’re leading in green technology in this region. All of this was on show at last week’s @NEAutoAlliance Expo.

The highlight for me was kids talking all about the future of the automotive industry. Showing me their robots fresh from competition in Texas!

We want our region to be known as the home of real opportunity. These kids get it and that’s why we’re backing these industries to create the jobs of the future right here in our North East.
