Starmer challenged on economic growth rate
Just seems to me that growth is sort of the new magic money tree though. What kind of growth do you want? Do you want 1%, two percent, 3%? What do you the high sustained growth in the G7? So what is that is ambitious? Well, the highest sustained growth, I mean that will be determined over time. But to be the top of the G7. But that is you have to appreciate that is slightly meaningless 'cause it could just be nought .1%. We could even be in recession and still have be better off than the rest of the more significant growth. You don't know, I don't accept this defeat is I understand the challenge you're putting to me. Just be nice to have a ballpark figure of what how, how large you want the economy to be in five years time. The last Labour government, we grew by about 2 1/2 percent. So you're looking for that kind of growth, 2 1/2 percent, certainly, yes.
