www.money.co.uk/business/business-statisticsApparently Rachel Reeves has secured the signatures of a few hundred CEO's supporting Labour policy So only another 6,800 large (more than 250 employees) and 5.6 MILLION smaller guys to swing to their side then. I got the headline from reading the BBC LIVE page which doesn't currently say how many But here www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/ckvv8qwl4y4o we see actually a mere 121 are so minded

I got the headline from reading the BBC LIVE page which doesn't currently say how many But here www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/ckvv8qwl4y4o we see actually a mere 121 are so minded They compare to an unknown quantity, which is how Labour will perform in economics in practice. Comparing to what happened post 97 is inaccurate since we have so many different faces now.
If we were an ideal optimist we could say perhaps like it is with woke and like it was with US and the Soviet Union, that things might switch. US has now gone soviet and China is now where the US was back in the early 20th century, which is what we call capitalism. Here in the UK, our microcosm of the world we see Tories go totally woke with gay police cars on the streets, so perhaps Labour will rebuild the manufacturing sector and make a fortune. One could argue that the Labour team look pretty damn stupid, but perhaps they might completely delegate to experts who do a good job. On the other hand of course we have the past UK performance that we could extrapolate and see that things will have to completely go balls up before anyone realises there is a problem. I'm about 80% this view, but appreciate that reality is full of surprises.
