Rachel Reeves is all about growth. So why won’t she admit that Brexit is its worst enemy?
“Things are moving in the right direction,” says Charles Grant of the Centre for European Reform (CER).
Nonetheless, Labour is so paralysed by Brexit that despite its hunt for growth, it has said nothing about the monumental sums that leaving the EU have cost the economy. Estimates vary, but the CER sets our losses at 5% of GDP.
...Grant of the CER is optimistic that the French will fall in with the rest of the EU, and that Britain will get access the fund.
