Create a UK-Wide Regional Equity Strategy to Tackle Systemic Inequality by 2030

Closed 59 signatures

What the petition asks

Create and implement a UK-wide Regional Equity Strategy by 2030 to close the geographic inequality gap. We think this should include statutory investment targets, regional accountability, and a legal requirement to embed regional voices in national policy-making.
Where you’re born in the UK still determines your access to opportunity. From transport to education, health to jobs, regional disparities hold millions back. This is not just a North/South issue—it affects overlooked communities in every nation and region. We think we need long-term, legally-backed change—not political soundbites.
