Contribution

We have delivered record investment into this country, we have had three interest rate cuts in a row and wages are going up faster than prices, which is a massive cost of living boost. That is in only eight months, after 14 years of absolute failure. What did the Conservatives leave? Interest rates were at 11% and there was a massive £22 billion black hole in the economy. They crashed the economy; we are rebuilding Britain.
