Minister's apology brings nothing but "cold comfort"

18 Oct 2022

EMBARGO: Immediate Release

Responding to the Minister for Defence James Heappey and Prime Minister Liz Truss apologising for the Governments errors, Liberal Democrat Treasury Spokesperson Sarah Olney MP said:

“This Government hasn’t just caused a slow-motion car crash it’s completely destroyed the motorway.

“Wheeling ministers out to apologise at the scene of the economic crime will bring cold comfort to millions of families and pensioners who are suffering as a direct result of the Conservative's actions.

“If the Conservatives really had any sense of sorrow they would immediately call a General Election and let the people of this country send them a message they can’t ignore.”
