On Friday, I welcomed Robert Jenrick, MP for Newark and Exchequer Secretary to the Treasury, to speak at my Connect business breakfast club - which brings together local businesses, large and small.
I gave an update on Brexit, and then introduced Robert who spoke in particular about the November budget and productivity in the UK economy. He then took questions on stamp duty, skills and innovation.
My thanks to Robert for giving an interesting and upbeat assessment of the UK’s economic prospects, and to Mike Cumper for organising the breakfast at Sandown Racecourse Park.
