Tony Danker, head of the Confederation of British Industry warned that the Government is failing to seize Brexit opportunities. Speaking ahead of the Chancellor’s spring statement on Wednesday Mr Danker admitted the CBI was wrong for its approach to Brexit, failing to realise why sovereignty was so important.
He said: “I was not a Brexiteer, but I am a post-Brexiteer. I’m interested in what happens now. Brexit is a two-part process, part one – we leave. Part two – we grow, we flourish.
Mr Danker continued: “I just don’t think the government has done enough post-Brexit, post-pandemic crisis and in the light of what has been happening in the East to get the country growing again.”
