The letter, published by the Daily Telegraph and organised by the Tories’ small business ambassador Karren Brady, warns that putting Ed Miliband and the Labour party into office on 7 May would be “far too risky” for Britain’s economy.
The document, which is signed by bosses from around 5,000 companies, follows a similar letter from more than 100 leading business executives.
In response to that, Labour sought to portray the Tories as a party that has the interests of major corporations at heart. But the Conservatives will produce Monday’s letter as evidence that they are, in fact, the party of small and medium sized firms.
