False Economy – Why is Britain so unproductive?

Productivity in Britain is down – is an army of middlemen partly to blame? Ros Taylor sits down with Giles Wilkes, senior fellow at the Institute for Government, to find out why we need to cut back on what he labels ‘crud’ to revitalise our economy.

• “Crud is artificial capitalism.”
• “The Conservatives did a lot of damage in the 80s and are now returning to the scene of the crime and asking who did this?”
