Let’s be honest: May’s industrial strategy is about job destruction

Last Updated: January 23, 2017By

What the Conservatives offer.

Richard Murphy of Tax Research UK hits the nail on the head:

There would appear to be a glaringly obvious flaw in Theresa May’s plan. It’s called a lack of people who might create the demand for whatever it is she wishes to invest in. This is already one of the crises of modern capitalism: it is unable to think of things that people want or can afford.

It is not creating demand because people aren’t really that bothered about more stuff. What they want are three things. They are affordable homes, secure jobs and a future for their children.

    It’s a bit much blaming May for the last 43 years worth of jobs destruction.

      Don’t do it, then. I didn’t.
