Angela Rayner responds to Kwasi Kwarteng admitting he doesn’t know where the Prime Minister is

Angela Rayner MP, Labour’s Deputy Leader, responding to Kwasi Kwarteng admitting he doesn’t know where the Prime Minister is, said:

“Boris Johnson’s zombie Conservative Government has checked out after crashing the economy.

“As the Bank of England forecasts the joint longest recession in three decades, the disgraced Prime Minister lingers on, asleep at the wheel, propped up by Tory MPs when he should be long gone.

“As people up and down the country are sick with worry about how they’ll pay the bills, Ministers have gone missing in action.

“The Tories have no plan, no leadership and no answers just more of the same from these two continuity candidates. Only Labour can provide the fresh start the country needs.”
