These figures bring home the Tories’ total failure to improve the living standards of working families – John McDonnell
John
McDonnell, Labour’s Shadow Chancellor, commenting on today’s ONS labour market
statistics, said:
“These figures bring home the Tories’
total failure to improve the living standards of working families.
“Real wages are lower than they were in 2010 and, after seven years of the
Tories, they are now falling again.
“The choice at this election couldn’t be
clearer: either a Tory party presiding over a crisis in living standards or a
Labour government that will build a Britain for the many, not the few.”
