“green shoots”
Baroness Vadera, one of Gordon Brown’s most trusted ministers was in deep shit last night after saying that she could see a few “green shoots” of recovery.
She was asked on the ITV Lunchtime News yesterday when she believed that the UK could expect to see “green shoots” and replied: “I am seeing a few green shoots, but it’s a little bit too early to say exactly how they’d grow.”
Downing Street defended her, saying that some companies were “expanding their workforces”.
Lady Vadera’s comments came as Barclays announced that it was to cut 2,100 UK jobs, Jaguar Land Rover said it was losing 450 staff and administrators of the music chain Zavvi announced that it would close a further 18 stores, with the loss of 353 jobs.
