THE man tasked by Michael Gove with fashioning the Tories’ “levelling up” strategy has been hired by Labour to do the same thing.
Andy Haldane, a former chief economist at the Bank of England, has been brought in to run Labour’s plan for “regional growth”, Lisa Nandy told the Guardian.
Nandy, the shadow levelling up secretary under Labour leader Keir Starmer, also appeared at her party’s conference in Liverpool alongside a Conservative MP.
