Labour's Business Endorsement Falls Short of Expectations
The party's bid to secure corporate backing ahead of the election reveals a lack of support from top business leaders.
- Labour announced support from over 120 business leaders, but none from FTSE 100 companies.
- Critics argue the list includes small businesses and former executives with controversial backgrounds.
- The endorsement letter's signatories are seen as 'embarrassingly lightweight' by industry insiders.
- Labour's economic policies are questioned for their potential impact on business investment.
- Business Secretary Kemi Badenoch called the endorsement proof that Labour is 'not a serious party.'
