Paul Dennett is the Mayor of the City of Salford and our latest guest to be interviewed as part of our GMCC Leaders Series.

Leading the interview is Chris Fletcher, Director of Policy and Campaigns at the Chamber, and he asks Paul about his career so far and his journey into politics - making the choice between a career in education or the Labour Party.

Paul talks about the perception of Elected Mayors, the powers they hold, plus the 'Levelling Up' agenda and how to achieve economic growth in the city.
