Darren Jones MP remarks on the fall in retail sales

Labour's Shadow Chief Secretary to the Treasury, Darren Jones MP, remarking on the fall in retail sales, said:

“Fourteen years of Conservative economic failure have left working people worse off and are forcing families to cut back.

"A decade of low economic growth has left Britain with the highest tax burden in 70 years, with families set to be £1,200 a year worse off under the Tories’ tax plans.

“It’s time for change. Rishi Sunak should call an election and give the people the chance to vote for a Labour government that will get Britain’s future back.”
