And The Wind Cries ‘Boris’
Is the smorgasbord of Big Ideas that Boris Johnson announced to the virtual Conservative Conference actually deliverable? Do plans for the Saudi Arabia of wind, expanded social care and a New Jerusalem all at once contradict one another? And as the Corona bills come in, is crunch time on the way for former distributor of good news and sunshine Rishi Sunak? Special guest SALMA SHAH, former advisor to Sajid Javid, joins us for the IfG’s own autumn statement.
“Nobody doubts that the Government can make big announcements. The question is whether they can deliver it.” – Jill Rutter
“This wasn’t a traditionally Conservative speech and this isn’t a traditional Conservative government.” – Salma Shah
“When we hear about 30 year mortgages or social care or offshore wind, it’s fair to wonder why nobody’s delivered them so far. And the answer is, it’s hard.” - Giles Wilkes
“We’ve had two consecutive governments that are, for Conservatives, amazingly uninterested in what business has to say.” – Jill Rutter
Presented by Bronwen Maddox with Jill Rutter and Giles Wilkes. Audio production by Alex Rees
