The UK exports more than 10 times more to the EU than to China, 25 times more than to Canada and 40 times more than to India - going to take a long time to catch up
BREAKING: New

The perfect strategy for inhibiting businesses from investing in the UK. How do we expect to invest more for NHS if less tax collected due to less investment & less jobs. This country needs Ministers to be enthusiastic champions of business as found in most other countries
This is ridiculous nonsense from a cabinet minister who should know better - instead of parroting Johnson, Fox, Davis and Gove, why don’t you stand up to them and put the interests of the country first

You could not make this up - it’s the ‘Siren Voices’ from the Cabinet that are undermining the Prime Minister. Businesses are major stakeholders in this process. In my view we have a duty to speak up - before more damage done or its too late.
