Reeves to say rules and red tape are boot on the neck' of innovation
Briefly

Rachel Reeves emphasizes the need for bold reforms to alleviate the burdens of regulation on businesses in the UK. In her speech to City leaders, she argues that excessive caution from regulators stifles innovation and enterprise. The Leeds Reforms aim to relax regulations post-2008 financial crisis, promoting risk-taking among businesses and consumers. Reeves insists that these changes will benefit the economy, leading to better mortgage deals, improved savings returns, and increased job growth. Key plans include streamlining senior bankers' accountability and reviewing safety measures on consumer cash.
Regulations act as a boot on the neck of businesses, choking off the enterprise and innovation that is the lifeblood of growth. Regulators must boldly regulate for growth.
The government is regulating for growth, and weaker regulations will ultimately have trickle-down benefits for consumers, including better deals on mortgages and more jobs with good wages.
