So the question was – is it a good recovery or a great recovery?

This issue was posed at last week’s British Chamber of Commerce conference in Westminster. This I suppose really gives you an indication of the tone and atmosphere of the day and, come to that, most of the attendees. I had the impression that most were positive but equally realistic that this recovery could easily turn on a sixpence – a delicate spring daffodil, in a smog ridden atmosphere. Of course all the comments from the politicians were encouraging – that is to be expected – but I am not sure they carried too much weight given their own lack of practical business experience. However the air of growing confidence was there and that was important.
