In an open letter, figures including chef Tom Kerridge and the founder of Wikipedia Jimmy Wales give the 'changed' party their support as they claim a 'lack of political stability' has held the country back.

More than 120 business leaders have written an open letter giving their backing to Labour in the general election. Senior figures, including chef Tom Kerridge and former CEOs of Heathrow, JP Morgan and Aston Martin, said the party had 'shown it has changed and wants to work with business to achieve the UK's full economic potential'. They said the public should now 'give it the chance to change the country and lead Britain into the future'.

In the letter, the business people said it was 'time for a change' as 'for too long now, our economy has been beset by instability, stagnation, and a lack of long-term focus'. They said the UK had 'the potential to be one of the strongest economies in the world', but a 'lack of political stability and the absence of consistent economic strategy has held it back'.
