Liverpool mayor: Labour conference begins with call for positive vision

Labour's time "has come again", says Liverpool metro mayor Steve Rotheram, urging Sir Keir Starmer to set out a positive vision at the party's conference. Rotheram feels a "buzz" similar to 1996 when Tony Blair led the party to victory. He hopes to see a unified party and a positive vision for change. Rotheram also wants more control and flexibility for regional governments and is passionate about apprenticeships and skills training. The cancellation of HS2 has damaged trust in central government, but Rotheram believes a Labour government would deliver without party politics.
