Andrew
Gwynne MP, Labour’s Campaigns and Elections Chair,
in response to the Sunday Times
splash, said:

“The
Tories don’t stand for working people, their record is one of failure and
broken promises, letting ordinary people down at every turn.

"Under
the Tories working people have picked up the bill while those at the top have
has tax breaks. Wages have stagnated while in work support has been slashed.
And public services have suffered huge cuts, leaving our NHS in crisis with
longer waiting times, overcrowded ‎A&E departments and staffing
shortages.


"The Tories’ promises to deal with energy bills should be taken with a
huge pinch of salt. Time and again they’ve promised action but when it comes to
it they broke those promises. Under them energy bills have soared. At the last
election when Labour promised action the Tories opposed it, putting themselves
on the side of protecting the big energy companies’ profits rather the interest
of working people.

"Only
Labour can be trusted to deliver a country for the many rather than just the
few. All the Tories offer is broken promises and a record which has seen working
people worse off.”
