Chuka's first parliamentary question as a Lib Dem

Ed and Jo on Midlands tonight

How can Britain stage an economic recovery after the Brexit crisis?

From his booklet, 'Beyond Brexit: Liberal Politics for the Age of Identity', Liberal Democrat leader Vince Cable explores how the UK can prosper socially and financially in the 2020s Without an effectively functioning economy, such objectives as "fairness" cannot be realised, and political extremes flourish. What Britain needs to prosper socially and financially in the 2020s is a longer-term strategy for sustainable growth which addresses the country's deep failings in respect of skills, short-term financial horizons and housing. And, now, those of us who oppose Brexit and economic nationalism generally face the challenge to say how we would improve the functioning of an economy damaged by the financial crisis and then, again, by Brexit. Good economic management will be more critical than ever.

Only a national government can deliver Britain from its Brexit nightmare

A short-term alliance of MPs from all parties much be formed to achieve a referendum Brexiteers often hark back to the blitz. Maybe they think the "Britain standing alone" motif adds much-needed heroic purpose to a Brexit future in which Britain stands without trading partners or allies to tackle climate change.
