Jacob Rees-Mogg is "denying economic reality"
EMBARGO: For Immediate Release
Responding to Jacob Rees-Mogg’s comments this morning on the economy being in a "good state", Liberal Democrat Deputy Leader Daisy Cooper MP said:
“Jacob Rees-Mogg is denying economic reality, his bluff and bluster will do nothing to reassure people worried about their mortgages, pensions and living standards.
“He’s admitted his own mortgage has gone up, but won’t take the action needed to help the millions terrified of losing their homes as interest payments go through the roof.
“It shows Conservative ministers are refusing to take responsibility for their actions and are totally out of touch with struggling families and pensioners. It’s time this government U-turned once and for all on this out of touch and reckless mini Budget before it does any more damage.”
