Confederation of British Industry head Fairbairn replying to May's speech 6 Nov

• all in the government must embrace this

I posted May's hot air comments earlier here and here

Says Fairbairn on the CBI website:

From the UK's domestic opportunities to Brexit, the Prime Minister reassured businesses at the CBI conference that they share a vision for a strong economy built on fair, competitive markets. These welcome words must be followed through: clarity on industrial strategy and Brexit ambitions must be matched with urgent delivery. Firms will do all they can to make this happen.

"The Prime Minister reaffirmed the Government's full commitment to the Florence speech and a status quo transition. This is essential for firms across the country, providing much needed stability and avoiding a catastrophic cliff-edge scenario.

"All in the Government must embrace this: the road to a Florence Deal must be swift and have no deviations. Every opportunity must be taken to reduce uncertainty for the sake of jobs and the economy."
