Mr Stride, who voted to Remain in the 2016 referendum, conceded it was"taking a bit of time" to benefit from the business opportunities from Brexit, but added:"They are coming through - you can see them coming through.
"We've moved on now and I accept that and I cannot argue now that there are not major opportunities, what we need to do now is get out there and capitalise on them and that's what we're determined to do."His comments also come amid concerns from prominent Brexiteers about a"secret" summit attended by Cabinet minister Michael Gove seeking to address the challenges of Brexit.
Number 10 suggested Rishi Sunak did not know in advance that Mr Gove would be attending, adding that the PM is focused on the benefits of Brexit.The International Monetary Fund has forecast that Britain will be the only G7 nation - including Russia - to see its economy shrink in 2023. While Bank of England policymaker Jonathan Haskel has said that Brexit caused investment in UK businesses to plateau and dealt a productivity penalty worth £29bn.

Frontiers | Industry-specific prevalence and gender disparity of common mental health problems in the UK: A national repetitive cross-sectional studyAims To evaluate the prevalence and temporal trend of common mental health problems (CMHP) in the UK by industrial classification from 2012-2014 to 2016-2018, meanwhile evaluating corresponding gender disparities. Methods We used data from Health Survey for England. CMPH was judged by 12-item General Health Questionnaire. Industrial classifications were defined using the UK Standard Industrial Classification of Economic Activities. Data were fitted by logistic models. Results In this study, 19,581 participants covering 20 industries were included. 18.8% of participants were screened positive for CMHP in 2016-2018, which significantly increased from 16.0% in 2012-2014 (adjusted OR[AOR]=1.17, 95%CI 1.08-1.27). In 2016-2018, the prevalence of CMHP ranged from 6.2% in the industry of Mining and quarrying to 23.8% in the industry of Accommodation and food service activities. From 2012-2014 to 2016-2018, none of the 20 industries studied experienced significant decreases in the above prevalence, conversely, three industries saw significant increases, including Wholesale and retail trade, repair of motor vehicles and motorcycles (AOR for trend=1.32, 95%CI 1.04-1.67), Construction (AOR for trend=1.66, 95%CI 1.23-2.24), and Other service activities which can’t be classified (AOR for trend=1.94, 95%CI 1.06-3.55). 11 of the 20 industries studied had significant gender disparities against females, with the smallest gap being in the industry of Transport and storage (AOR=1.47, 95%CI 1.09-2.0) and highest in the industry of Arts, entertainment and recreation (AOR=6.19, 95%CI 2.94-13.03). From 2012-2014 to 2016-2018, gender disparities were narrowed only in 2 industries, including Human health and social work activities (AOR for trend=0.45, 95%CI 0.27-0.74) and Transport and storage (AOR for trend=0.5, 95%CI 0.27-0.91). Conclusions The prevalence of CMHP has increased and had a wide variation across industries in the UK. There were disparities against females, and the gender dispa
