This is very good stuff from @prafulnargund @GoodGrowthFdn A first take on how the public view growth rather than business. This take is going to grow and grow in importance
ICYMI @nicholaswatt, @vicderbyshire on @BBCNewsnight last night laying out the key themes of GGF Mind the Growth Gap report. Focus on intuitive growth levers is crucial for voters to feel their lives improving while the economy does too.🔗

Here’s a thing. IMF say growth needs to increase to 2.6% from next year to avoid tax rises etc. Labour have the right political conditions to do what it takes. But more likely to be “hockey stick” of less than 2% at first then closer to 3% later

A hugely significant read revealing that only a third of our biggest companies are listed! Why does most of our growth come outside of the FTSE where corporate leaders are so constrained? Inconvenient truths about #Growth
Excited to share our report on corporate performance, "Aiming higher: Embedding systematic ambition to drive UK corporate growth". UK corporates are not in decline - but need a new mindset to thrive. #McKinseyUK #UKAimingHigher #UKCorporateGrowth

Excellent and challenging piece on why Britain seems to be faring worse than other countries on post-Covid return to work. Bravo @KateAndrs
Can the country’s economic woes really be blamed on a ‘workshy’ Britain? Or have politicians created a web of benefits and taxes so complicated that they have removed the motivation to work across the income spectrum? My cover for this week's @spectator👇
