Yes, Seph, that's because John Redwood is the only one for you!
Yes, that’s right, it’s not the ongoing underinvestment as highlighted in the article I posted previously…

Low business investment, weak management and too few commercial patents are the main factors behind Britain's weak productivity record that has been a puzzle for policymakers for years, according to new research published on Monday.

The study, by researchers at the London School of Economics and the Resolution Foundation think tank, said low business investment was the clearest difference between Britain and higher-productivity nations.

Business capital investment in Britain was 10% of gross domestic product in 2019, compared with 13% on average in the United States, Germany and France.

British business investment in research and development also lagged behind levels in other countries.
You’re gaslighting - if you continuously blame "the lazy shirkers", you make it easy for Business to not have actually invest in their people and technologies.
