30 Jul 2024
EMBARGO: Immediate Release
Commenting on the Treasury's audit into the state of public finances, Liberal Democrat Treasury Spokesperson Sarah Olney MP said:
"The shortfalls in public spending announced today are truly shocking, and the result of years of Conservative failure and mismanagement. We have been left with a stalling economy, leaving millions of families struggling to pay the bills and make ends meet.
"To get our economy growing, we must focus on the NHS by cutting the waiting lists, giving the people the care they desperately need so they can get back to work. That's why we are urging the Government to invest in healthcare, in GPs, dentists and hospitals to kickstart the economy after years of Conservative chaos."
