Andy Burnham: “It's about time we started backing British business and British industry so we can re-industrialise places like this.”

We can do it, and we can be the nation in the next 10 years that… does find the cure for cancer, that does make the breakthrough on dementia, or indeed on nuclear fusion.

In a fundamental change to the education system, we will introduce new technical education pathways from 14 – prestigious routes that will give students the chance to combine the core academic subjects with the skills, technical knowledge…

I want Britain to be the country that makes the breakthrough and delivers the cure for dementia the world has been waiting for.

This investment goes hand in hand with our plans for a National Care Service, helping ensure that people living with dementia get the care and support they need.
