ONS pay-squeeze figures: The Government simply doesn’t care
Responding to the latest ONS unemployment and earnings figures which saw average pay fall by 2.3% in the year to December 2022 to February 2023, Liberal Democrat Treasury spokesperson Sarah Olney said:
This is a damning verdict on the Government’s attempt to end the cost of living crisis.
Jeremy Hunt is the latest out of touch Conservative Chancellor to completely fail on rising prices.
The Conservative party’s gross mismanagement of the British economy has lead to inflation rising and growth plummeting. People need urgent help with rising food and energy bills, yet the Government simply doesn’t care.
Rise in faulty sewage monitors as water firms accused of “covering up environmental scandal”
- Almost 2,300 sewage monitors found to be faulty – over one in six of all monitors
- Number of sewage discharges potentially much higher than feared
- Lib Dems accuse water companies of covering up environmental scandal by failing to fix monitors
New analysis by the Liberal Democrats has revealed water companies are failing to monitor hundreds of sewage discharges in coastlines and rivers.
