Meet Jamie Events
I’ve been North of Tyne Metro Mayor since 2019. In my manifesto I promised to unite the North and South of our region so we can control our own transport system. I’ve fulfilled that promise and landed £6.1 billion of investment for us – it’s about time the North East got our fair share.
In May 2024 you’ll get to elect the Mayor of the new, expanded, North East Mayoral Combined Authority. I’m standing in that election as an independent candidate who’ll put region before party.
I held meetings across the region so you could meet me in person and ask me questions.
I detailed my vision for an integrated Total Transport Network, a Green New Deal for our local businesses and economy, and how we get a decent job for everyone.
No public money was spent on these events. All funds came from crowdfunding. Over 6,000 people have donated to my grassroots campaign.
Upcoming Events
