Campaign for the North was a think tank which sought to address the North–South divide and establish a Regional Government for the North of England covering the six historic counties of the region.
[1][2] The Campaign promoted a devo-max settlement and, in doing so, aimed to create a Northern Government with tax-raising powers and responsibility for policy areas including economic development, education, health, policing and emergency services.
[3][4] The Campaign was chaired by Dr Harold Elletson, former MP for Blackpool North between 1992–1997.
