Our search for a national story

The British economy is not run in the interests of the British people. Today, the answer to Labour’s political crisis is also the answer to Britain’s national crisis: telling a powerful, inclusive story about the Britain we can build together. This task is to rebuild a national economy on strong foundations. In this endeavour, government must work with and support all those prepared to put national reconstruction first – managers, small business owners, workers, unions and beyond. But national renewal cannot be measured in GDP alone, or in the success of our most productive, best-paid sectors.
