Northern Spin

government · EN

Chris Maguire and Frank McKenna are Northern-based political commentators and co-hosts of the Northern Spin podcast. Maguire is an award-winning journalist and Executive Editor of BusinessCloud, while McKenna is Chief Executive and Group Chairman of Downtown in Business. Launched in 2022, Northern Spin was created to give the North a stronger voice - cutting through Westminster noise with sharp analysis of politics, business and media from a distinctly Northern perspective. Now, as Andy Burnham becomes the first Northern-born Prime Minister since Harold Wilson in 1976, Northern Spin returns to separate fact from spin and bring listeners authoritative insight from the North.
