The British prime minister sketched an economic vision for the U. K., but he avoided mentions to the fuel crisis and food shortages the country has suffered from during recent weeks.
Boris Johnson vowed that Britain would not return to the “broken model” of the past. He also vowed on Wednesday to engineer a radical transformation of the country’s economy to a future defined by highly skilled workers earning higher wages and lower taxing.
In a speech to a cheering crowd at his Conservative Party’s annual conference, Johnson said, “We are going to deal with the underlying issues of our economy and society, the problems that no government has had the guts to tackle, the long-term structural weaknesses in the U.K. economy”.
