This is the sort of investment the UK needs to ensure we have the industrial base of the future.

Will the Labour government be able to deliver the economic growth we desperately need?

Economic growth is going to be key if we are to maintain our standard of living and influence in the world.

We believe the key to driving growth is to increase the level of investment and this is how you do it.

It is good to hear that Manufacturers feel as though the UK is becoming more competitive.

This must continue. We need a comprehensive Industrial Strategy and the government should examine a competitive exchange rate policy too.

As we move into this General Election Year both parties are talking about growth.

The only way to achieve sustained and high growth is to grow our manufacturing sector significantly.

Do we need a Minister for Manufacturing?

Manufacturing output increases giving reasons for optimism.

We need an Industrial Strategy with a competitive exchange rate policy at its core to build on that.

The governments plan for advanced green manufacturing is positive. But we need the right economic conditions for investment to be profitable.

What are some of the biggest challenges for the UK manufacturing industry?

The government must adopt a radical industrial strategy if it wants to achieve real growth in the economy, writes @BrendanChilton

Funding to support reshoring is but one aspect of revitalising British manufacturing.

The key is to make investment in UK industry competitive. We have a plan for this on the supply side and on the exchange rate.

One off funding is not enough.

We have long supported the deduction for investment in industry.

The Chancellor was right to commit to thise, but we need greater tax incentives for investment in manufacturing.

Is UK manufacturing starting to turn a corner after months of difficulty?

Manufacturing is key to driving productivity gains. Let us hope so.

Higher interest rates are impacting on British manufacturing.

Our Director, @BrendanChilton gives an analysis of the impact on the sector.

We had very little from the government on reviving UK manufacturing in the Kings Speech.

No wonder confidence in manufacturing is falling among businesses owners.

[The John Mills Institute for Prosperity @ProsperityJmi]

As we await the Kings Speech- to increase manufacturing productivity business leaders say the Chancellor needs to allow more tax breaks.

What do you think?

The loss of Steal making at Port Talbot would be a disaster for the UK economy and for British industry.

The government must adopt a radical industrial strategy if it wants to grow the economy, writes @BrendanChilton

Should one of those elements be different rate of Corporation Tax for manufacturers?

We must reverse the decline in UK manufacturing. The world is less safe and supply chains are not as secure.

Manufacturing jobs are higher paid than services and accelerate growth.

Why is there no plan to revive British manufacturing?
