Going for Growth: Practical Approaches to Growing Local Economies – A Summary Insight Paper – Exemplas and Leeds Beckett University
“Economic growth is the number one mission of this government.
Without growth, we cannot cut hospital waiting lists or put more police on the
streets. Without growth, we cannot meet our climate goals or give the next
generation the opportunities that they need to thrive. But most of all without
economic growth we cannot improve the lives of ordinary working people.”
Rachel Reeves, Chancellor of the Exchequer, 29 January 2025
