The Labour leadership’s narrow definition of ‘working people’ leads to distorted and unjust Budget calculations, where the unearned income of the super-wealthy doesn’t factor in at all, argues JON TRICKETT MP
THIS week retail overtook all other sectors of the economy for job losses. It is time that the government decided whether it was going to intervene to save our high streets or let them go to the wall.
It is time for the government to act before it is too late. What the retail sector needs now is a tripartite approach from the government, unions and employers. They all need to work together to develop a much-needed retail recovery plan.
We have long called for an industrial strategy for retail to help a sector that was already struggling before the coronavirus emergency. Now the situation is much worse.
