Boris Johnson’s levelling-up drive risks becoming an ‘everything and nothing policy’, MPs warn Ashley Cowburn © POOL/AFP via Getty Images boris-johnson Boris Johnson “flunked” his opportunity to define his election slogan of levelling up, which risks becoming an “everything and nothing policy”, a Commons committee has warned. MPs on the Business, Environment and Industrial Strategy Committee added that the government had “failed miserably in translating a political soundbite” into specific policy initiative and a deliverable programme. The scathing assessment comes after the prime minister admitted during a major speech just last week he only had the “skeleton” of the plan to level up the country, with critics suggesting the 20-minute address was lacking in detail.

Boris Johnson “flunked” his opportunity to define his Government’s flagship levelling up agenda which risks becoming an “everything and nothing policy”, MPs have said. Levelling up was a term coined when Mr Johnson entered Downing Street and was heavily pushed during the 2019 election as a way of closing regional inequalities and “improving everyday life and life chances”. But the phrase has since been used in relation to tackling a number of society’s ills including addressing racial inequalities in the context of the Black Lives Matter protests, when speaking about disability rights, and tackling anti-Semitism.
