Reeves has gone from cosying up to business to confrontational – and it will be disastrous

The Independent  

Rachel Reeves urgently needs a new script – and some pizzazz. The chancellor insisted she had “drawn a line under the inheritance I faced” from the Conservative government and stressed “we’re never going to have to do a Budget like that again”. Now, they’ve had Andrew Bailey, governor at the Bank of England, where Reeves likes to say she was once an economist, saying exiting the EU has “undermined” the economy. As Reeves was informed today by CBI chief executive, Rain Newton-Smith, the result of the employer’s NI hike will make it harder for firms to “take a chance” on hiring new people. Rain-Smith opened the gathering with a reference to three years ago, and Boris Johnson’s address: “We’ve got a brilliantly full schedule – with hopefully not a Peppa Pig in sight.” That’s when Johnson lost his place in his script and went off on a tangent about a trip he had made at the weekend to the Peppa Pig World theme park.
