Members, focus groups in heartlands and defeated candidates will get a say.

Former shadow education secretary Lucy Powell will spearhead the review, alongside Mr Miliband and Birmingham Ladywood MP Shabana Mahmood.

Rail commuters in the north of England were hit by cancellations and delays when new winter timetables were launched last week.

Conservative MPs Kevin Hollinrake (Thirsk and Malton), Robert Goodwill (Scarborough and Whitby) and Jason McCartney (Colne Valley) say they demanded urgent changes when they met TransPennine boss Leo Goodwin.

Mr Goodwin said he was "really sorry" for the disruption to customers at such a busy time of year.

He said: "Due to issues with crew training, caused by the late delivery of some of our new trains, along with a maintenance backlog and some infrastructure issues, we had to implement a temporary timetable."

Mr Goodwin says the introduction of new trains should see an improvement to people’s journeys.

Kevin Hollinrake MP says: "We've seen one-in-five trains cancelled or significantly late, so we've said we must see a tangible improvement .

"What they've agreed to do is reduce that by 50% by January."

Durham, Cleveland and North Yorkshire merged the service in 2016 in a bid to cuts costs and increase expertise.

The three chief constables have now agreed due to changing demands, including a need for officers to travel long distances more often, they will return to the individual forces.

The change will not affect the overall cost of policing, and there are no plans to reduce the number of dogs.

Police say there will still be opportunities for joint-working, for example when specific incidents require the use of a greater number of dogs at one location.
