Covid-19 has shaken the UK economy in profound ways. But as we emerge from the crisis, people across the country are clear – we cannot go back to business as usual.

This edition of progressive review takes on the many challenges facing the UK economy. It asks what ‘build back better’ really means, in practice. It puts forward radical ideas for a better, fairer, more sustainable economic settlement – for all.
