Labour responds to latest ONS labour market statistics

Jonathan Ashworth MP, Shadow Work and Pensions Secretary, responding to the latest ONS labour market statistics, said:

“Today we see yet another record fall in real wages, and further proof that the Tories have lost control of the economy.

“Because of the Tories’ failure on the economy, families face plummeting real wages and soaring energy bills. Yet, this Zombie Government is offering no solutions to the cost of living crisis.

“Labour will help build a secure economy and we will freeze energy bills so that people don’t pay a penny more this winter.”
