Show Notes
The Chancellor has given the government’s backing to a third runway at Heathrow Airport, in yet another relaunch speech this morning.
Speaking at a factory in Oxfordshire, Rachel Reeves reaffirmed Labour’s commitment to their growth strategy, announcing a raft of major new infrastructure projects alongside Heathrow including the redevelopment of Old Trafford, turning Oxford and Cambridge into “Europe’s Silicon Valley” and the much-delayed Lower Thames Crossing.
But do projects that we might not see the fruition of for decades solve the dire economic situation which faces Rachel Reeves today?
Camilla and Kamal discuss just that, and speak to Chief Executive of the Wine Society Steve Finlan, who has grim news from the frontline of small businesses.
