Abstract

In an election year, politics feels small and is failing to rise to the challenge. UK economic growth is anaemic, productivity continues to flatline and both public and business investment are low by historical and international comparison. Faced with radical geopolitical uncertainty, the United Kingdom still lacks a proper strategy for greater energy and food security. Across the country there are deep, widening disparities in terms of skills, transport, and housing – besides poor access to finance for SMEs and an imbalance between service sectors and high-tech manufacturing and industry. As Winter gives way to Spring, it is hard to shake off a sense of gloom.
