This week we released An Honest Day - written by @markmcvitie.bsky.social with @chriscurtis94.bsky.social - to outline a new economic settlement for Britain. Written about today in @theguardian.com by both @gabyhinsliff.bsky.social and Andy Beckett. Read it in full - www.labourgrowth.co.uk

EXCL: Angela Rayner will use a speech this week to call for “bolder action” from Sir Keir Starmer’s government, echoing a challenge from Labour MPs who have warned the prime minister’s “caution & incrementalism” is paving the way for a populist takeover of Britain. www.thetimes.com/article/4c74...

In an ever more dangerous world, the biggest risk for Britain is standing still. That’s why @chriscurtis94.bsky.social and @louisehaighmp.bsky.social are arguing for a bolder economic vision that rewards work and contribution while taking on a broken system. www.thetimes.com/article/4c74...

Labour cannot afford to write off the generations building Britain’s future. If the Government cannot reforge the link between effort and reward, then young people will go elsewhere at election time. @chriscurtis94.bsky.social www.ft.com/content/53f6...

@chriscurtis94.bsky.social speaks to the Today programme: Last night should tell us voters aren’t simply moving left or right. They’re moving away from a broken system that punishes grafters and rewards grifters. We’ve been working on what this party needs: a plan to change that.

What country are we trying to build? Are we for those putting in the graft - innovating, working, training, investing for the future? Will we take on the grifters - skimming, ripping-off, gaming the broken system? This is what we’re building. More soon. www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

Britain’s economic decline is an emergency – like war or a pandemic. If we don’t put an end to it, Nigel Farage will be Prime Minister. The system is addicted to inertia. It needs shock therapy, now. @chriscurtis94.bsky.social and others tell @jessicaelgot.bsky.social for @theguardian.com 1/2

We’re pushing the boundaries on what we do, and how we communicate it. Labour needs to be engaging audiences and taking risks on the online media which many now look to over traditional media outlets. www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

The evidence of today’s forecasts is clear: Government’s ambitious planning reforms will drive growth into the economy. £3.4bn by the end of this parliament. Now we need to go further and faster on building, clean energy, cutting edge defence, the AI revolution & more.

LGG Co-Chair @chriscurtis94.bsky.social writes for @thetimes.com on why the Planning & Infrastructure Bill must end absurdities like the 'bat tunnel'. This system has failed to protect nature and blocked growth. We must be bold and take back control of it now. www.thetimes.com/uk/politics/...

Any system where the British people foot the bill for endless challenges to the vital infrastructure their communities need is broken. Meanwhile highly-paid lawyers stack up profits and those who seek to halt progress are given free reign. This cannot go on.

This is positive but the truth is that the seven-year process, to move a runway 12 metres, has already taken far too long and is delaying vital investment in Britain. We need radical action to speed up decision-making and get Britain growing. theguardian.com/uk-news/2025...

The Prime Minister made clear today that economic growth is integral to our national security in a rapidly changing world. Every lost opportunity or dropped investment is a gift to those who want to see our country destabilised. We say it is time to build for Britain.

"The status quo is economically and morally bankrupt. So, we’re changing it.” - @torstenbell.bsky.social We seek a country where police can respond properly to crime and pensioners don't sit for hours in hospital corridors. That's the Britain we're building. www.theguardian.com/business/202...

Today LGG co-chair @chriscurtis94.bsky.social met with Heathrow CEO Thomas Woldbye at British Steel in Scunthorpe. They committed to work together to drive up growth across the UK - powered by Great British industries from every part of the country. 🏗️✈️

Bold and decisive action by the PM. The taskforce should rapidly sharpen regulation to unleash both SMR and Gigawatt nuclear power - including recognising designs from countries such as France & South Korea where nuclear is built safely, quickly and cost effectively. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

New nuclear has a key role to play in delivering the transformative economic potential of the AI revolution while reaching Net Zero. SMRs should be able to go where demand is greatest so that growth is shared across every part of the country. www.thetimes.com/uk/environme...

Everyone listening today should be in no doubt that the Labour Growth Group will ensure the Chancellor has the backing she needs to deliver this ambitious vision. This movement on the Labour backbenches is determined to return prosperity to Britain.

Good and positive CMA response to this intervention from @labourgrowth.bsky.social. Well-regulated markets are vital to economic growth, jobs, and investment, and to protect consumers - but regulators should also be wary of overly burdening business.

We wrote to the CMA calling for a 'rapid pro-growth review' - and we welcome their response. They now have the chance to provide an example for others. LGG represents those who need total system change, and brings the political will to deliver it. www.thetimes.com/business-mon...

It’s been unsustainable for blockers to so easily be able to halt progress in an endless mire of legal challenges. Previous governments knew this, but didn’t have the guts to fix it. This one’s different and we’re backing them tirelessly as they do that. www.thetimes.com/uk/politics/...

The movement to end decline is growing - and we welcome the energy and ideas that new groups like 'Looking For Growth' are bringing to it. We're tearing down the barriers and ensuring Britain's best days are ahead. Lets finally grow 🚀 www.thetimes.com/uk/politics/...

Matt Clifford has put forward an ambitious plan to forge a future for Britain that would put this country at the forefront of the AI revolution. We look forward to supporting Peter Kyle and his team in turning this huge opportunity into reality. www.gov.uk/government/p...

Co-chair @chriscurtis94.bsky.social told @skynewss.bsky.social the PM was absolutely right to call on regulators to join the effort to bring growth back to the UK.

Co-Chair @chriscurtis94.bsky.social and @pollybillington.bsky.social hail today’s planning reforms & push for a Land Use Framework as the next step. The current system has blocked building and trashed nature. It is broken, and we are going to fix it. inews.co.uk/news/politic...

Growth can't just be a number - improved living standards hold the key to creating tangible prosperity. The Democrats' defeat shows economic figures alone are simply not enough to cut through. Glad to see MPs are thinking about this @labourgrowth.bsky.social www.thetimes.com/uk/politics/...

Our new Chairs @chriscurtis94.bsky.social and Lola McEvoy spoke to @geraldinescott.co.uk at @thetimes.com about why its crucial that voters feel the effects of growth and the need for bold solutions to cut through a tangled web of broken systems in the UK. www.thetimes.com/uk/politics/...

@davidpintod.bsky.social and @liambyrnemp.bsky.social also spoke to @politico.eu’s Financial Services summit on next steps for banking regulation and delivering growth in a challenging global environment We’ve got the expertise, the will and the vision in every facet of the growth agenda

LGG’s @dantomlinson.bsky.social spoke to @centrepropolicy.bsky.social Inclusive Growth conference this morning. Putting the case for how our Labour Government is delivering the foundations for growth

The Chancellor has delivered a budget that measures up to the challenges Britain faces. Invest, invest, invest, was our call, and the Chancellor provided a clear framework for ambitious investment in Britain. This is just the start. We are ready to get to work.

The i Paper and @politico.eu carry the news on our meeting with business leaders this evening in Westminster. We’ll be letting them know in no uncertain terms that the era of ‘government being dragged off course by backbenchers putting party before country’ is over inews.co.uk/news/politic...

We wrote to Rachel Reeves urging her to make this ambitious decision. Leaving behind the failed Tory fiscal framework and boldly investing in Britain’s future is crucial to growing our economy. We’re proud to back a Labour Chancellor bringing growth back to the UK 👇

Co-Chair @lucyrigby.bsky.social spoke to @stigabell.bsky.social and Aasmah Mir on Times Radio about why we want to see the fiscal framework changed to reflect the value of public investment 👇

Vice-Chair Dan Tomlinson has written for @CityAM.flipboard.com.ap.brid.gy on the need for ambitious public investment, which crowds in private capital and generates growth. We’re clear - now is the time to invest in Britain👇 www.cityam.com/if-growth-is...

Vice-Chair @chriscurtis94.bsky.social spoke to Ayesha Hazarika on Times Radio about our letter to the Chancellor urging for a refreshed fiscal framework and what we’re here to do 👇

We're urging the Chancellor to adopt a fiscal framework that recognises the value of investment at the coming Budget. It is time to break with the failure of the past and invest in Britain's future. www.theguardian.com/politics/202...
