From The North episodes

  • Levelling up: Is the north being left behind?
    A survey commissioned by ITV News has found that 67% of people living in northern England say they are not confident that the Government will deliver on its promise to 'level up' the underperforming areas of the economy where they live.

    The Government say they're putting their full force into levelling up, but longstanding inequalities have been highlighted by the coronavirus pandemic. 

    Join presenter and ITV Granada Reports Political Correspondent Hannah Miller, along with ITV Tyne Tees & Border Political Correspondent Tom Sheldrick, and ITV Calendar's Political Correspondent Harry Horton as they ask just what the Government is doing, and will levelling up ever really happen?

  • Can the Black Lives Matter protests bring about change?
    In this episode of From The North, we look at the Black Lives Matter protests which are being held across the country and beyond.

    They follow the death of George Floyd, a black man restrained by a white police officer in the US.

    Campaigners stress that although the incident happened on the other side of the Atlantic it again highlights issues of racism every day closer to home.

    ITV’s Tony Morris asks what these protests mean to those involved and can this momentum be capitalised on to bring about real change?

    He is joined by protestor Reece Williams, race and equality researcher Rachel C. Boyle and Faye Bruce from the Caribbean and African Health Network.
