‘These Brexit negotiations are vital for our country’s future.  We will continue to press the Government to retain a focus on the domestic agenda, reminding ministers of the national and international role of cities in delivering our nation’s future success and therefore our post-Brexit future. Over the next two years Core Cities UK leaders and mayors will continue to create jobs, housing and inclusive growth, whilst ensuring their cities remain diverse, safe and welcoming places to live.’

 

Cllr Judith Blake CBE, Chair Core Cities UK; Leader Leeds City Council
