How is it affecting your Swindon business? Opinion from the Swindon Business Leaders Forum

The economic news in Swindon is mixed.

On one hand, Honda announce a jump in profits and a ramp-up of production plus new jobs at their South Marston factory - on the other, figures point to a double-dip recession and the service sector 'slowing' down.

A timely moment, then, to gauge opinion at the recent Swindon Business Leaders Forum organised by the Swindon Chamber of Commerce at the De Vere Village Hotel.
