LONDON, Oct 5 (Reuters) - Britain's economy is at a turning
point and the government welcomes rising wages but will not
return to the old approach of low investment and low skills,
Prime Minister Boris Johnson said on Tuesday.
"What I don't think would be a good idea would be to go
backwards to the kind of low wage, low investment, low skill
approach that we've had before. And so it's really a big turning
point for the UK and an opportunity for us to go in a different
direction," Johnson told BBC TV.
