On the eve of the Conservative Party Conference in Manchester, the Prime Minister announced £20m of funding for 44 towns in England. The Long-term Plan for Towns will “empower communities across the UK to take back control of their future – taking long term decisions in the interests of local people.” The funding will be spent on issues like reviving high streets, tackling ASB, improving transport and growing the local economy.
