chris grayling, he says it is up to the north to sort out rail issues. taste in the mouths of some people there. let me read you some quotes from the transport secretary, the success of northern transport depends on the north itself. businesses, the mayors, devolved authorities and communities, they understand the problems in the north better than anyone and with their knowledge we can fix them. a comparison with some people in the room behind me, if this was london with transport problems, as they see it, they would be left to get on with it and sort it themselves. as for the mood in the room, two words to sum it up a "unity and frustration". unity, in that organisers were keen to stress it was not a political event or bashing national government is all about bashing london, but it is making sure that the north gets what they see as a fair share of money and commitment from national government for transport projects. frustration insomuch as they see national government in london projects, at the detriment of the rest of the uk and crucially to the north

not because of any failure in the part of the british government or minister grayling.ropean agencies, airlines or government are going to be very helpful. i think they're going to be very obstructionist, i think they're going to want to see there is a disruption to flights and aircraft grounded and no flights between the uk and europe for a period of months after april 19. are you convinced the british government knows the seriousness as far as you are concerned of the case you are prepared? i think they'll convinced of the seriousness of the case. i have no doubt minister grayling is aware of the urgency of the issue but i think there is a collective delusion mainly among the uk airlines as well, that a deal will happen. i disagree. i think the deal is unlikely to happen and that means people when they come in the autumn of 2018 when they come to book their summer to book their summer holidays for 2019, they're faced with the prospects of there being no flights to europe and the alternative would be to get ferres to ireland or drive to scotland. do you think the uk go

but when you see chris grayling tomorrow there could be?e but chris grayling and the uk government have not been able to negotiate the divorce bill, they cannot agree on whether the european court ofjustice governs european citizens‘ rights here in the uk, never mind doing the sectoral agreement for aviation. what is different about aviation is there is no fallback position. it is not covered by wto. the uk is out of open skies and must negotiate an agreement. the uk is not yet out of open skies and may perhaps at yet negotiate an agreement and also several airlines including the one that controls british airways, iag, will have a base within the european union. easyjet will have... untrue. that will allow them to fly the way they are flying just now. that is incorrect because there are two issues. ownership restrictions and flight rights. the current ownership setup of iag will not survive a hard brexit. in your opinion. a spanish company owning british airways. no one would like an agreement more than i would. but you're not recognising t

but how do you convince the likes of chris grayling and the government to invest, to find the money toks from east to west, notjust north to south, across the north of england, and as across the north of england, and as a result, improve the economy for the millions of people living there? the first thing we did when we set up the first thing we did when we set up transport for the north was to commission an independent economic review. the evidence we have gathered through that work is so compelling. what we want to do is make sure we are speaking with one voice across the north, making it clear to government that they cannot afford not to invest in transport, because this is about uk plc. it is about the north really maximising its full potential to contribute to the whole economy of the north. we know that investment in transport is one of the major keys to unlocking that potential. the other key is skills. we have companies in leeds and right across the region who are having difficulties attracting the skilled people that they need. if we increase the ability of people to move from

who was critical of the fact that the prison governors' association didn't intervene when chris grayling benchmark and we did voice our concerns. as we do with everything, but that doesn't necessarily mean to say that we can stop government policy. is this too late then? could you have done more and should you have spoken out earlier? no, i don't agree with that. i think we have done as much as we can and we consistently do this. i think what's interesting at the moment is our secretary of state, david lidington, his silence has been deafening on the issue of prisons. he has inherited prisons that are in a significantly challenging situation and he has said nothing. the prisons minister, he was our prisons minister in the last, he has retained that position. he has been unable to meet with us until mid—october. so it isn't a case of the prison governors' association aren't doing anything, but the government don't seem to be receptive to talking to us. how bad do you feel the situation is becoming? well, the situation, the violence statistics that came out last week, were the worst ever.
