Hello,

Thanks for signing up for The Northern Agenda newsletter, it's great to have you on board.

You might already subscribe to other politics newsletters, but not one like this. We won't obsess over the latest Westminster gossip but will keep you up to speed on the big issues affecting the North.

It'll take 5 minutes or so to read and you'll get stories on what our mayors, town halls and MPs are up to - plus what the decisions made in Westminster mean for the 15 million people who live in our region.

Every Friday you'll be the first to hear about our weekly podcast looking in depth at Northern politics. And you won't want to miss the latest cartoon by our award-winning Graeme Bandeira - see some of his recent highlights here.

The next edition of The Northern Agenda will be hitting your inbox next weekday dinner time (that's lunch if you live down South). But in the meantime why not have a read of a recent edition - just click here.

I hope you enjoy the newsletter - and let me know if there's any big issues I ought to be covering.

Thanks!

Rob Parsons
