A proper post on the Financial Times map of Britain under New Labour will be forthcoming; I’m in the middle of changing jobs, though, so have been extremely busy over the past week. The map is fascinating in terms of the main areas that have benefitted (notably London and Scotland) and those that have not thrived – especially the North-East, which lags behind the other regions despite relatively large public expenditure per head. A Flash rather than Macromedia version of the map can be found downpage here.
