Conservative MPs who won seats in the so-called “red wall” are backing calls for the Prime Minister to offer tax breaks for manufacturing as part of plans to deliver on “levelling up” the country.
It comes as a group of 50 Tory MPs also demanded the Prime Minister start levelling up the North “at pace”.
Boris Johnson, who was elected on a pledge to create greater economic prospects outside London, is being urged in a new report by a right-leaning think tank to set out a national plan for manufacturing, including tax breaks for factories and extra investment into technology, in a bid to expand a sector known for higher wages.
