I’ve been dipping into Rachel Reeves lecture she gave recently and am pleased to see stuff that I had hoped labour would introduce.
The first is growth - so this is modelled on Keynesian growth theory, which maintains that by de-risking growth in certain identified economic activities through government investment, than output will grow.
This has been spectacularly successful in the USA, and if it is as successful here we would have difficulty finding the people to fill the posts.
The second is the emphasis on green growth, which is still central to their growth strategy.
Last is something I haven’t really seen labour mention - but I am pleased to hear that workers fights will be central to the new economy. The argument - which has a degree of real merit is that workers who are treated with respect etc are far more productive than where workers are exploited.
