Business question from Barry Sheerman (Labour) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 15 March 2012. It occurred during Business statement on Business of the House.


Business of the House

I remind the Leader of the House that at no time in the history of this country have power, influence, employment and wealth been more dominated by London and the south-east. Is it not about time—or is it too late—to influence next week's Budget so that we can start to redistribute some of the wealth and power to the northern and midland regions that make this country what it is?
