The Government’s chaotic handling of the Brexit negotiations is holding our economy back – Rebecca Long-Bailey

Rebecca
Long-Bailey MP, Labour’s Shadow Secretary of State for Business, Energy and
Industrial Strategy,
commenting on a survey by Santander and the Engineering Employers Federation,
said:

“This is
yet further evidence that the Government’s chaotic handling of the Brexit
negotiations is holding our economy back. 

“With the
Tory Cabinet too busy negotiating amongst themselves to make real progress in
the Brexit talks, it’s no wonder businesses are reluctant to invest. 

“The next
Labour government will introduce a bold industrial strategy, work with our European
neighbours to provide certainty for businesses and negotiate a jobs-first
Brexit that protects jobs, rights and living standards.”
