Labour leader snubs North East creative industries
Liberal Democrats question priorities of North of Tyne Authority after brochure revelation Liberal Democrats North of Tyne Mayoral candidate John Appleby (pictured) has called on Newcastle council leader Nick Forbes to justify his comment that the region does not have the capacity to produce the authority's glossy "Home of Ambition" brochure setting out his priorities, after it emerged that the authority had commissioned a Manchester design agency to produce it. Cllr Forbes was challenged on the decision by a prominent local businessman at the brochure's launch event this week and replied that "I don't believe we have the capacity in this region for this sort of project." John Appleby said: "It is bad enough that the North of Tyne authority has failed to practice what it preaches on creating and retaining wealth in the region through public procurement, but it is an insult to the creative and design sector in our region that Nick Forbes appears to believe they are not capable of providing such a service.
