Reports have shown that amid the cost of living crisis, the north-south divide is widening – despite the formation of the new Department of Levelling Up, tasked with addressing regional inequalities in Britain.
He explained that the research took into account life expectancy, income and other factors such as access to amenities to determine whether the lives of people in the north of England are improving.Read more:Michael Gove's department have announced myriad plans to "level up" the north of England, such as unveiling new transport projects, housing developments and re-industrialisation.
Mr Mayes addressed the scale of the "challenge [Mr Johnson] has to stay in power", given that he is relying on many of the Red Wall seats for the overwhelming majority the Conservatives currently hold in the House of Commons.

mrjamesob Joe_Mayes The North constituencies voted for Boris because of promises to improve their areas, but also to get Brexit over with and because they didn't like Jeremy Corbyn. We are officially out of the EU, Corbyn is gone and Boris has failed to help the North. The Red Wall will return.
audouin1b mrjamesob Joe_Mayes I’m sorry to say, you get what you vote for. NeverTrustATory ever.
mrjamesob Joe_Mayes Ha ha! That'll learn 'em.
mrjamesob Joe_Mayes The Conservative Party is bad for Britain.
mrjamesob Joe_Mayes EX red wall. It's passed on! This red wall is no more! It has ceased to be! It's expired and gone to meet its maker! It's a stiff! Bereft of life, it rests in poverty!
OperaSocialist mrjamesob Joe_Mayes Well of course they are. Red Wall turkeys.
mrjamesob Joe_Mayes From Scotland, and I don't want to appear superior, but we told you so. Although we hate the Tories, we are not anti English (apart from the Tory private educated elite and their Brexit supporting cabal). Let us respect our differences and live alongside each other as friends.
mrjamesob Joe_Mayes They dont like foreigners and support the obvious party that hates them too
mrjamesob Joe_Mayes This is what those flags, poppies and war stuff was about. Everyone knew Brexit would bring greater hardship, but people were persuaded to vote against their best interests and 'sacrifice' themselves 'for Queen and country'. They gave their wellbeing, cosplaying WWII, for Brexit.
mrjamesob Joe_Mayes they knew what they were voting for...
mrjamesob Joe_Mayes Turkeys and Christmas
mrjamesob Joe_Mayes You voted for these lots and any you want to prosper?
mrjamesob Joe_Mayes Labour seats that voted Tory have fallen further behind under Tory control. There's a lesson to be learnt there, but some people won't see it until it personally bites them on their backside.
mrjamesob Joe_Mayes Will still vote tories, people these days have a house worth 300k and drive a 5 year old bmw suddenly think they're middle class :-/

mrjamesob Joe_Mayes Levelling up is another con
mrjamesob Joe_Mayes joe_mayes, LBC mrjamesob try living in NOC turned LAB. Kirklees
mrjamesob Joe_Mayes You can rely on the Tories!
mrjamesob Joe_Mayes Not long after the election, the world was hit by the Covid pandemic and all that entailed for the economy. Just coming out of that, 2 years later and Putin turns the World economy tits up invading Ukraine. No wonder things have not gone as originally planned by the Government.
mrjamesob Joe_Mayes How sick they must feel in believing him
Beany_1 mrjamesob Joe_Mayes He didn’t care about them once he won power and he doesn’t care about them now. Until he calls the next GE and he’ll promise them the earth again. Fool me once etc.
mrjamesob Joe_Mayes So what’s the problem? They knew this. All they need to do is vote for him again and stop whining
mrjamesob Joe_Mayes A testament to the gullibility of a large swathe of the population of this country. Conmen are still conmen wherever they were educated.
mrjamesob Joe_Mayes aye but they will still vote Tory at the next election

mrjamesob Joe_Mayes There was no hype, just a catch phrase. It didn't mean anything
mrjamesob Joe_Mayes Idiot monkey hangers
mrjamesob Joe_Mayes Sadly they were conned to vote for a compulsive liar with only one care and that was caring for himself. Today they are cheering that everyone is better off. Have you seen the gas bill?
mrjamesob Joe_Mayes But with the right red meat from the Tory press, and continued promises of levelling up, they’ll keep voting for Boris, despite their reality.
mrjamesob Joe_Mayes The whole levelling up thing is just a load of rubbish. They don't plan on following through with it. It's the same as them saying they'll build 40 new hospitals, or Johnson saying they'll build a nuclear power plant every year. It's just lies.
