GDP: Real growth plan needed from Govt

EMBARGO: Immediate Release 

Commenting on the latest GDP figures, Liberal Democrat Treasury Spokesperson Daisy Cooper MP said:

“Today’s disappointing figures underline the scale of the challenge facing our economy after years of reckless mismanagement by the previous Conservative government.

“After a Budget promising to deliver little by way of growth and an unfair tax on small businesses, we need to see a real growth plan from the Government. 

"These additional taxes could be the final nail in the coffin for the many small businesses that are already struggling. It's the last thing our economy needs to get it out of the slow lane."
