Small and Medium Enterprises are the bedrock of the UK economy, providing millions of jobs and helping to grow our communities. SMEs were hit hard by the pandemic and are being let down by a government that has been bad for economic growth, failing to offer them the help they need to thrive. SME4Labour has been successful in advocating for small and medium-sized enterprises, helping to shape the debate and making sure that economic priorities are high on the agenda. I thank SME4Labour for their work and pass on my warmest congratulations as they celebrate their 7th anniversary.
