Daisy Cooper: “Force energy companies to pay back”

The new Chancellor needs to turn things around, and fast. The economy is stuck in the slow lane while job seekers and families pay the price.

The government needs to do much more to bring down energy bills and get our sluggish economy growing again.

As Ed said at conference we are in the fight of our lives against the right who want to turn our country into their version of Trump’s America.

Today's borrowing figures also show the huge pressure on our public finances. The only real answer is to boost growth, and protect our economy from the global shocks it faces, like Trump's illegal Iran war.
