I could say something about uncertain times but I will not. I would like to raise a couple of points on the report, starting with Brexit which is possibly the most immediate threat to competitiveness. Does Professor Clinch think that we are doing enough first as a country, by which I mean the Government, but second in terms of business and unions, in facing up to how big a challenge it is? Are we sleepwalking as a nation into it, hoping that it will be all right on the night?
