This wasn't the GDP graph I was looking for but it tells a similar story.
It always seems to be us that get kicked in the nuts the hardest.
Then again, I believe our area was one of only a couple of net exporting regions.
I know the issues are piling up but perhaps Brexit wasn't the best idea :mad:
 
We built the world then left to rot, cheers mate. Oh well, better water, air, scenery etc. up north but child poverty no thank you
 
The long streak of local p!$$ Simon Clarke has just been on Sky with his latest uturn on government borrowing. F great job he is doing for the region and people he is supposed to represent. Growing child poverty and a widening the gap between N&S. Great job he is doing levelling up. What a absolute useless nasty C.
 
The economic figures since 1979 will be the same or possibly worse.

The North East needs to be given advantages over more prosperous regions of the UK, instead it seems to get less over the last 43 years. (coal mines all shut, shipyards all shuts. steel works all shut, heavy industry almost all shut).

Power, influence and money are too centralised.
