Full audio of our City Horizons event with Tristram Hunt MP, held at the People's History Museum in Manchester on 18 April 2016. In his speech, Tristram argued that Labour should embrace political devolution for cities, and suggested three areas where the party could go further than what has been offered by the devolution deals so far: greater fiscal devolution, public service reform, and local civic ownership of utilities. In the Q&A session after the speech, Tristram addressed concerns about local engagement with the devolution process, how to square devolution with redistribution, and the extent to which the programme he has set out is supported by the Labour leadership.
