The thirteen Yorkshire influencers you attach to on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram and YouTube
“They’re thinking of us now, ” he said. But it probably wouldn’t last. Once it’s all over, we’ll be forgotten again. “
He’s not the only one who thinks that. Another owner I spoke to recently agreed: when the pandemic is nevertheless under control, there may be a vaccine available, the health care crisis will return to the political agenda.
Both are other sensible people and are not convinced of the Prime Minister’s repeated promises to fix social care.
It was to forget the fact that nursing homes and their staff were at the front line of seeking to protect some of the other most vulnerable people in society.
The ministers who joined the caregivers in applause were a gesture of welcome, but it does not solve the prices of suffocating town halls, nor the low wages in the houses and the problems of hiring.
There are still no signs of the long-promised green paper on the system review, and the total factor will be referred next year through the government. Unsurprisingly, the owners I know have an underned view of the promises to solve the problems. everything before.
But it is not only social coverage that remains uncertain, a total number of problems of great importance to our region are well unresolved because of the pandemic, when in fact they are treated as emergency problems as part of a national economic recovery effort.
Decentralization, new investments in education and training, road and rail transformation, and flood prevention efforts have been set aside.
We will also want to address the fate of cities and urban centers, which are already suffering from an online attack before Covid empudes the shops.
There will be no budget this year, no spfinishing review awaiting Yorkshire and the rest of the North, and they hoped to publicize the process of ending the long-overdue unfair investment in the region.
Yes, there is a national emergency underway and no one can dispute the pressing desire to prioritize the retention of businesses and others at work.
But, in fact, it should not be beyond the government’s ability to continue long-term disruptions, especially when the benefits they bring to businesses are more likely to overcome up-to-coming disruptions.
Allowing Covid to erase all other disorders is tearing down our region and potentially exacerbating the injustices we continue to suffer. Short-term employment measures could be useless unless there are plans in a position to create an environment in which employment grows over the years. Come.
It is known how long the emergency will last or how many additional shocks the economy will suffer if new blockades are imposed.
Boris Johnson talks about six months of restrictions, there’s no certainty they’ll be lifted in the spring of next year.
It is therefore imperative that the government refocus on giving the North the powers and investments it wants not only to recover, but also its strength for the future.
Only by doing so and keeping the region’s economy running at full speed can the large indebtedness be reimbursed to provide emergency aid.
Yorkshire’s ability to chart its own course is in this sense. We know how to grow the economy in the most productive way, and that will be important not only for this region, but also for smart people across the country.
The same applies to education. Academic success, skills and education are essential to recover from the pandemic. The same goes for railways and roads that serve those who use them, as well as delays and frustrations.
Nor did Yorkshire suffer constant setbacks, or pain, as a result of the floods.
A year after the devastating floods in South Yorkshire, there is still no sign of the summit promised through the Prime Minister and the lack of a comprehensive strategy for long-term devastation.
More than that despite everything related to social aid prices, these problems cannot be solved as the country goes through a crisis.
Nor can they be suspended indefinitely because they have spent so much to deal with Covid that the government makes the decision to suspend strategic investments.
On the contrary, these are problems that will be key elements of Yorkshire’s recovery.
It would be tragic if jobs were stored through emergency measures and then lost because the cap reduced long-term investment.
Not investing long-term in North Korea will further aggravate the economic damage caused by coronavirus.
