Backing Business UK
@BackingBizUK
The campaign to get Westminster politicians to back, not attack, British business — from the UK Shadow Business and Trade team.
Rachel Reeves finally found the courage to stand up to Angela Rayner. Now she's remembered she's the Chancellor, will she stop Rayner's union-written Employment Rights Bill which will cost businesses £5 billion?

🤷♂️ The Government say they want economic growth, but yet they have brought back their Employment Rights Bill. 📈 The intentions are noble, but the unintended consequences will be massive. 👇
The bureaucrats always think they know best, and like ever more laws and rules so they can control our lives more ‘for our own good’ and ‘safety’.
In Britain we hassle those who do the right thing & coddle those who do wrong. Snippet from my new piece:
🥀 The Labour Party think there is no difference between imports of oil and gas, and domestic production. 🥀 That’s the message they are sending to the thousands of workers here in the UK. They simply don’t care. About security, about revenue, about people. Shameful.
I was pleased to sit down and talk about politics, The City and business on 'the Business Case' podcast recently. The Business Case - with Mark Wharrier and Phil Clark shows.acast.com/the-business-c…
Last night, the Lib Dems betrayed farmers. They voted against our amendment to exempt farms from 300 pages of employment red-tape. Because of their vote we narrowly lost — now hard-working farmers will suffer for it. The Lib Dems are not on the side of British farmers.
Labour are a shambles. The Business Secretary hears every day that the Employment Rights Bill is bad for the economy — but his hands are tied by Angela Rayner and the unions. They must put politics aside, listen to the CBI, Make UK & FSB, and shelve this destructive Bill.
