The plans for Harborough make no reference news types of employment such as engineering and technology. These are growth areas that MH are not attracting. Instead we are focusing on service and retail industries. These sectors only attract a lot of low wage roles a only a few well paid ones. Instead engineering and technology sectors will attract far more of the latter.
By 2031 automation and technology developments will mean that retail, services, and distribution centres will not need a significant workforce. Relying on these traditional sectors is setting Harborough up for failure
