Liz Truss’ speech at the Conservative Party Conference today was yet another indication that this government is completely out of touch with working people in Chadderton, Oldham & Royton.
She has been at the heart of a Conservative government that has spent 12 years building a low wage, low growth economy and working families will be paying the price for years to come as mortgages hit their highest levels for 14 years while food and fuel prices remain sky high.
The Tories need to reverse their kamikaze trickle-down economics budget immediately and instead focus on what they can do to help ordinary working people keep their heads above water. This economic crisis is a Tory crisis, made in Downing Street and paid for by working people in Chadderton, Oldham & Royton.
