What do SMEs want from the new Labour Government?

On the 5th of July this year, we all woke up to the result of the UK General Election and found a new Labour Government had come into power. Within hours the former Conservative Government was ousted from 10 Downing Street and by the afternoon power had officially transferred and the new executive had taken over the running of the country.

The new Labour Government has different ideas on many aspects of running the country – it’s very obvious that they want more Government control in everything from infrastructure to planning, but for ChannelX readers what really matters is what will that do that impacts our businesses?

We speak to Emma Jones, CBE, Founder of Enterprise Nation to discuss three key issues – Brexit, Employment and Training.
